The room got quiet suddenly. Theodore was holding onto the envelope with wide eyes.
It had been many years since he received any gift from his mother, after her death his father also stopped talking much about her.
It was known to many that his mother was quite secretive about her life, thus everyone in the room was looking at him curiously.
After a brief moment, he opened up the envelope.
To his surprise the envelope was empty. Everyone was confused to see this, but a moment later the letter got engulfed in fire and burned up.
Theodore felt a sudden pain in the back of his palm.
Everyone closed on him to see what h
Everyone was involved in helping each other with something. Elder people in the castle were looking after the decorations.As per decided, Diana and Catherine were helping at the camps, sure enough, the people also wanted to participate in some way and they were helping this happen.It was an occasion to celebrate, people needed to relax and this was a perfect occasion.In the castle, there was a bit of struggle in the kitchen."Princess, let us handle the cooking, you shouldn't be doing so." A maid called out to Vivian who was trying her best to cook a giant-sized cake."It's nothing, I can handle such a small matter. In the morning the hall was locked up for anyone other than royal guests. "So basically this is the plan okay?" Athena said looking at everyone. "Nah! That's not going to work. Let's work this one again." Griffin replied with his cup of tea in his hand. Everyone was working on planning the journey to the north. There was no doubt that Theodore had to travel, but it was still a question of who will accompany him. The powerhouses of the South Region won't possibly be able to travel as that would mean leaving millions of people unprotected, and it was not a good option to let him travel alone or with no good backup. After roughly 20 minutes, they gathered at the main gates of the castle. Aeneas along with Athena, Chloe, Merida, and Nicholas was waiting for them with a well-prepared horse cart. Griffin and Diana were keeping Evan and Jason busy at the camps. "Vivi, please look after our brother." Nicholas asked her in a worrisome tone to which she replied with a bright smile, "Yeah sure, I will brother Nic." "Hey, you! Don't you dare let my brother get in trouble or I'll come and haunt you, idiot?" Merida was yelling at Aeneas for the last few minutes and she now just threatened him. "Hey! Kid save me from this little dragon. How come you are so different?&nBurning Soul The Journey Ahead
Burning Soul The Beginning
"What are you talking about” Milo went pale at his words“You heard it right? That goddess might return soon.” Regis continued while playing with the glass he just picked up from the tray of one of the mids.“You've got to be kidding!That monster took my daughter's life and tried to run away when we went after her. If what you are saying is true, I certainly can't let you go alone unless Edith comes back." Milo was still in a bit of a shock but there was another goddess whose expression had gone pale."Re…R…Regis! You aren't kidding, right?Serena!
"What! You don't have any clue about her whereabouts? Why did you brag about her then?" Aeneas was getting scolded by Vivian after he said that he had no idea of Nuae's whereabouts. "Look, honestly I only heard about her being here and besides, they say there are many pretty girls… argh... strange people around here." Aeneas replied while averting eye contact. Hearing this she looked at him while narrowing her eyes. "What do you mean by strange?" Catherine who nearly stayed quiet all this time asked him in a serious tone. Her standing with her sharp loo
"Which way?" Theodore asked Sylph who was leading them. "There… There…" She kept on saying so while flying towards the girls at full speed. Theodore along with the girl, he just found, were frantically running through the streets as Sylph led the way. They were heading towards the northern region of the town. . "And he said it would be a safer region for them!" Theodore had a complaining expression while running. It was surely a safer region compared to the place from where they had fled earlier, Theodore just didn't realize it yet. After running for a while they finally arrived at an abandoned tower.
The environment got quiet in an instant. Aeneas stood with his cold gaze as if nothing happened. Now both the paladin and Theodore came forward to face them again with new confidence. After reuniting with Sylph, Catherine was also able to use high tier magic now. "Huh! That's your strength? Killing a newbie! Why not face off with me!" A giant looking thug came forward. "He's the one whom we were tailing before getting caught up in their trap." Catherine cursed as she glanced at him. Vivian was covering their exit if anything went south. "That
"Tear of Oizys? What's that?" Theodore asked him in a curious way. . He leaned back on his chair and took a deep breath before continuing, "There's this tale that's been told by the elders in my village. 'When the earth exploded and threw up all the malice, when the sky cracked and the abyss fell, a legend was lost, Soared high up in the sky and shattered like a glass, In exact 12 ways, the shards departed. Only she can put them together as only she is the worthy one’ Som
