Her big brown eyes looked into Andrey’s with the innocence and hope of a maiden. She wanted to rest all her faith into the red-eyed young man’s hands. The burden would weigh less. She could feel it. She knew of it. Certainty and comfort were what her intuition spoke to her when she looked at Andrey.
He smiled confidently and slowly drifted his eyes to her brother’s.
“I’m sorry, Eloise. I believe that Prince Alextraz might not agree with you.”
Immediately after these words, Alextraz yelled,
“I agree!”
Silence filled the room, and he repeated.” I agree! We will treat you like one of us.”
Alextraz trembled and covered his ears, lowering his head in defeat.
Okay, guys. I'm officially going into hiatus for a while. Might be a month, might be more. I've been writing almost every single day for a year and 25 days now. Hehe :D So I'm happy you came to this part of my book. I love you for this. Please, do not forget to leave a review for the book, and a bunch of comments, hehe. Thank you so much once more <3
Hello, dear Makiyans! Since time has been tight around the schedule, I am constantly writing, but I'm not near to where I should be to start uploading again! So in return, I will present you a free chapter full of bonus content related to the book. Schools of magic, facts about characters, world knowledge, etc! Things mentioned or not throughout the story. Alphilia - The name of the world they live in. Comes from Philius as it is created by Philius. ( Or so people from Wartair believe) __ The Everburning Eye The North Pole of this world. It is an icy continent, though in the center there is a large hellish hole that emits a large pillar of fire. (It is actually full of mana) The dragon-powered lights of the kingdom’s buildings reflected into Eloise’s eyes, filling the already rich brown color of her iris. Andrey’s eyes explored each wall and corner of the room, expecting to find a clock somewhere, but failing to do so, he vacillated, “At what time does the sun come up?” The eighteen-years-old princess’ soft lips moved ever-gently, “It should come up exactly at six o’clock.” “Aha… And what time is it now?” Andrey slowly moved back as Eloise’s arms wrapped around his. “It’s somewhere around four.” her reply came almost instantaneously. “Um…” he looked at her eyes, which were as if sealed into his, “Don’t you think there’s a lot of time until then?” Makiya 234. Intuition of the Queen
Silence. Patience. Oxygen. Flowing. Control. Limitation. Freedom, achieved through manipulation of boundaries. A dragon’s thunder-like roar vibrated inside Andrey’s head. The cracking of all self-control and explosion of fear awoke him from the deep state of meditating. he had fallen in He jumped on his legs, trying to catch a breath, and then moved his head paranoingly left and right, discovering nothing else but the wind playing with his hair and cape. Nothing else in his presence. “Argh,” he grunted, holding onto his furiously beating heart, “What was that… a scream? Cry out for help?” Finally recovering his calm state of
Staring into the setting sun, Prince Alextraz and Princess Eloise Strazjester, along with Andrey, were getting ready for their plan to be executed. “I’m asking for the last time. You’re sure you can jump us at the exact location, right?” Andrey wariness showed as he raised eyebrows at Alex. “Stop trying to mock me. I’m the Prince of Strazjester! Of course, I can jump with the most fluent precision.” “Brother… Andrey Makiya… Are you certain that I can’t come with you? I can fight on par with you two! We’d be back-to-back and protect each other!” “No!” They both neglected her in unison. “Ugh… Okay… Then. Please, protect yourself! Keep careful watch of your backs!” “Of course,
The buildings were aligned in a circle around the small plaza. Andrey and Alex were cloaked and waiting, leaning against the two-story building at which the higher-up pieces of the military puzzle were staying the night. Taking the head of a general was the real goal. Claiming it for the media and displaying Prince Alextraz Strazjester to be much more than what people took him for. But the fact that the building was swarming with higher ups was a detail the commoner they interrogated had failed to mention. Andrey and Alex had their heartbeats rising as the sound of thousands of desperate prisoners’ steps beating against the ground, finally liberated, were running out for vengeance and blood. Their frail and weak bodies, close to abolished by hunger, could now finally feast on whatever they laid their
“No!” Alex screamed as the arrow exploded in a purple color at Andrey’s location. “Your friend is quite capable, Your Highness!” Roy mocked, as he made use of the situation and grabbed Alex by the hand, activating his ring’s power. Lightning travelled to Roy’s hand, charging the ring with The Prince’s royal mana. The sudden drainage of strength brought the thunder-god to his knees. “That’s right, my Prince… bow before me.” Roy chuckled slightly, still draining the royal power. “How… dare you… Mock a Royal’s clarity! STAINING IT! WITH YOUR!” The Prince’s eyes glowed stronger, as lightning bounced all over his body, making him look much more like a body made of electricity rather than a human being, “FILTHY HANDS!”
“I… I- I can’t… move.” Andrey mumbled. “Ihhm comphhlhehthehly… pahalyed.” Alex spoke, hardly moving his mouth. Roy spoke, “Very smart of you. You figured out I can cancel magic, so you used physical objects to immobilize me. Too bad, but I’ll be getting reinforcements anytime now. And I don’t wish this even to my worst foes, but I think my lady will see you as well… oh god, what waits for you when she sees what you’ve done to me.” The knight laughed through his struggles, entertained by the images of what he believed would happen to his foes. Alex and Andrey made a feeble attempt at speaking, but unrecognizable speech was all that came out of their mouths, as the paralysis really had filled them up. “Oh, yeah, you’
Different voices spoke in an echoing pattern. “He’s not been in his room all this time, as we thought!” “We should be ashamed!”“We underestimated him yet again!” “What is more absurd, I believe, is that the people were all ready to rebel against him, and if they had done so, they would have thrown away their best-fit for a king.” “We were ready to abandon the thing we have been so in search of!” “People are blind. People are weak. They are so frail that someone needs to apply a little force to them, and they follow that person no matter if just.” Andrey ma
