Chapter 31
POV: The Aged one Advisor Thadron stood at the balcony of his palatial home gazing into the distance.To a casual observer, it would seem he was enjoying the scenery of the exotic surroundings but his mind was far away fuming and ruminating on one word: “Hassan”.He had tried to kill him in any way imaginable but his body was invincible. Ever since he was in the trance state, some gold colored dust swirled around his body making it impenetrable to attack.His men had stabbed him, tried cutting off his body parts and threw him in the den of a Daki, the most fearsome animal in the land but the boy still came out alive.His face was calm in the state and he had felt like slapping the cold impassive face but restrained himself. There was only one option left.He heard footsteps behind him and turned around. It was the head of the spies, jasu.His most trusted servant who was privy to some secrets others didn't know. He liked jasu for his quick wits and loyalty though he was always nervo

Chapter 32.
POV: Ruzio capture.Ruzio sat in the cold damp cell and looked around the surroundings, the banging of hands on the metal doors of the nearby cells growing louder by the minute. “If anything other than how he had his first clenched tightly, with his figures digging into his palms, would show how much anger he felt, then it would have been perfect.“Dame it!” He went about cursing under his breaths as he thought of how stupid his actions were, pacing endlessly about the four walls of the iron cage he was locked in.From the start, he knew that going to the palace through the gates that stood behind the guards quarter was a wrong option, but he decided to settle on it anyway.His instinct was right, the thought of how the guards will be away from their duty posts and not at the quarters only clouded his sense of judgement.“Besides, his mind was certain that there were no guards that usually stood at their gate since it was not open to the eyes of the general public.“I should have do

Chapter 33.
POV: Dream of fate.To Fatima, it seemed her body had been in the institute training for long but her mind wasn't. Even now, her mind had traveled so far away from her that it seemed her mind wasn't hers anymore. For days, the old woman whom she was sure he hadn't seen anywhere had been ambushing her dreams.Now, sleeping at night which was usually an escape from all her painful thoughts about Papa, from her weeping heart which always cried blood over her disappointment towards Hassan had also become a thing to dread.It seemed the moment the kedrans laid foot on earth, she was doomed to have bad luck thereafter.The destiny the old woman had been telling her to embrace was even more confusing. Could a damaged girl like her have a significant destiny awaiting.“No, she thinks not.”Now, she lay in bed silently offering supplication to Allah.“Supplications against the evil of sleep and jins which may ravage the sleep of man. She remembered she had chanted this supplication every n

Chapter 34.
POV: The knight.“You, but how? You were in my dream last night, who are you, are you a witch? Fatima siad, moving backwards to the toilet door as fast as she could and turning the door knob which suddenly refuses to unlock.“She was trapped in the room, then looked around for another exit, but the only entrance was the door behind her.She remembered Sima was just on the other side, she banged the door repeatedly to attract her attention. “Shockingly, her hand did not make any sound when she hit it and she glanced at her open palm in surprise. She tried to steady her shaking legs without success and she resignedly turned back to face the woman.Her white hair, hooked nose and long face was just like in a dream. She carried a long rod which she leaned on for support as she was very old. “I am the last surviving kizil, that was what we called people with powers then, so to answer your question, Yes, I'm a witch.“We finally met, I've known you for some time now, Fatima and I have wat

Chapter 35
POV: Dungeon Escape“Get up, you lazy ass!” A guard shouted, banging the cell door with his gun and directing the beam of a torch to light a stationary figure lying down inside the cell.The man did not move at all but patil had expected the behavior from him. He was one of the most difficult prisoners he had come across in all the four years he had been employed as one of the prison guards. He radioed, and his colleague told him about the situation. As usual, he gave a non-committal grunt that he was coming.Patil ignored his attitude; he had bigger things in mind, like a prisoner. The prisoner was tagged to Code Hazel by the warden who had warned the other guards to be careful with him as he was one of the top assassins in kedran.They had come across the information when one of the inmates recognized him as the Hooded assassin in the cafeteria section of the prison.He had lived up to his reputation and had lunged at the man who identified him but was stopped Mid-way in his attack

Chapter 36.
POV: Dungeon Escape? Part 2.Ruzio laid on the cold hard ground of the cell, analyzing the plans he had in mind. He had not expected any help from the Rebels but when he had seen the message from Advisor Thadron, he was a bit relieved and had regained his will to live.He wondered how he would face the Advisor, he had never failed an assignment before now. He had been proud of his skills and set and underestimated the difficulty of the task.“He vowed to himself not to do so again if he got out of the dungeon alive.” Everyone thought he had lost the will to live, he could see it in their eyes and he laughed inwardly at their thoughts. It would take more than that to break him, he was just analyzing and studying the place to get a better feel of how the operation runs in the dungeon.“His Infinite patient has served him well in other jobs and it did so now. He had watched, studied and scrapped many ideas he had originally had. He didn't want to bungle another opportunity, he couldn't

Chapter 37.
POV: Yuki.Fatima looked at Sima, waiting for her to fully comprehend what she had just told her. It was a long story and they had been at it for hours now. They were in Master Krim's class but he was absent, which has been a frequent thing lately. The place was chaotic as the other students all engaged in different activities, people were chatting among themselves while others held a small mock fight in front of the classroom and the cheers from people behind added to the din.“There were a few quiet ones in the class who just observed others without talking. Fatima and Sima were one of the quiet ones. They had found a less noisy place at the back of the class to talk and she had told Sima everything about herself.Sima sensed something different with her when she came out of the toilet even though she pretended as if everything was fine. She had disturbed her to open up about the problem until she promised to tell her at her own time.“She was now acting on the promise she had ma

Chapter 38
POV: Patil's Phobia.When Ruzio had newly joined the Rebel group, he had learnt about the penalty of a compromised spy or high ranking rebel officials.“They were killed by any of the numerous spies working for the Advisor before they could leak out any secret.He had even carried out such missions, eliminating his brothers in the movement. How ironic it was that he was captured when he came to kill a compromised spy. He must be the first assassin in history who was compromised when he came to assassinate another compromised spy.“It has helped to protect the movement in the little time they had been formed but he still could not believe that Advisor Thadron would do this to him. They had known each other for long and were close. Guess it was all business to him. He focused on the danger at hand, he didn't have many options of attacking except to defend himself. He didn't exactly know if Dishu was a good fighter, only his strength.He wasn't unduly bothered about the situation, he

Chapter 39.
POV: Nostalgia.Ruzio heard the alarm broadcast message from the digital watch on his wrist. It was a good thing he had removed the watch from Dishu's hand before he left the cell, that way, he was now informed and kept up to date about the chase.“It was hard to navigate the dungeon as it has multiple routes and the road all seemed the same.He had stripped Dishu of his clothes and put them on. He now looked like a guard, he brought down the helmet lower so as to avoid suspicion at his familiar face. It seemed all the cell guards knew and recognized each other, he had often heard them address their colleague by their name when they came around the cell.He heard sounds of running footsteps in the corridor and he knew it was the guards. He ducked into a thin opening in the wall nearby just as the first batch of guards passed by.They all moved orderly like a herd of Grofs and moved fluidly. Under the cover of darkness, he slipped among the group and ran forward with them.He hoped a p

Chapter 40.
POV: Complicated flips.Fatima heard Master Yedder had grown wary of her. He wasn't attacking with the careless gusto with which he had started. It meant it didn't underestimate her again, even his stance said it.A part of her was proud of the sudden respect but she was largely worried. Master Yedder was one of the most formidable fighters around and she didn't know how strong the new AI was in fights.“The whole place was quiet, every pair of eyes were glued on them, she saw Sima with a sad face still holding her hands in a prayer gesture and mouthing apologies.She ignored her and focused on Master Yedder who is circling her now. She wasn't angry at Sima, she knew it had to be a mistake but she didn't want to let her go off easily. She would have been minced meat by now if not for the system. “So what do I get if I win this fight in combat mode?” She asked the system telepathically.[Seeing as this is a strong opponent, you'll automatically go to level 2 instead of passing throug
