Gapsin is a big fortified kingdom with high protective walls.
Joyful songs could be heard from the kingdom as people were also chattering.
The majority of the women were dressed half-naked, entertaining the guests. The maidens were serving food to everyone.
People were devouring food in their tongues like lions, who are devouring other animals.
Every soul appears to be happy with life in Gapsin.
“Eat, drink and be merry” a young man stood up and gave a toast.
“Victory upon victory!” Another joined.
“Yeah!” They all screamed with joy. The joy in the atmosphere can't be explained. This is the life many of them want to live, but unfortunately, some withdraw back because of the battles they always fight.
“Hahaha! I get you” a man said to his colleague after taking a full bottle of wine.
Everywhere was noisy with instrumentals. A feast that always takes place even when they aren't celebrating anything special.
“Father,” prince Junfeng called out as he headed to his father, who was eating and drinking with the elders of the kingdom at the dining table.
“ Yes, Son,” King Cheng answered.
“You're gradually growing stronger and braver every day, like your father,” one of the elders said.
“Yeah. My blood is running through his veins, so he must behave like me.” King Cheng spoke.
Hahaha! They all laughed out loud.
“We celebrate your victory, my prince.”
Another said, probably referring to his Victory over the Luza kingdom.
King Cheng stood up and hugged, and also kissed prince Junfeng on the cheek.
They hugged each other for a few seconds.
“Father, any good news? “
“Not yet, my son. But trust me, nothing will stop you from getting married to princess Chu Hua.
I assure you that Cyprus won't deny us.
I know my stepbrother. He's a man of peace who doesn't like war. He will give in to our request because he doesn't have any choice. Son, you don't need to have sleepless nights because victory is always yours.” King Cheng encouraged prince Junfeng.
Commander Bengt was training his men in the training field, while some were sharpening their weapons on the other side of the training field.
“Wow! Bojing you must be a good fighter. I would like to challenge you.” Prince Junfeng said to Bojing, admiring his body size and height.
“I can't challenge you, my prince,” Bojing responded with a deep voice, bowing his head down.
“No one said you should challenge me. I said so.” Prince Junfeng replied.
“You're the giant of our kingdom, you ought not to be afraid of anyone. I want to challenge you because I heard that you are good at fighting.” Prince Junfeng added.
“But my prince….”
“Let's fight!” Prince Junfeng ordered as he cut in before he finished the statement.
“Don't you think you need a sword to fight me?” Prince Junfeng asked Bojing.
“My prince. I don't fight with weapons.” Bojing replied.
“Quite interesting, but mine is a different case.” Prince Junfeng advised Bojing, but he stood on his ground to challenge prince Junfeng without using any weapon.
Prince Junfeng wasn't holding any weapon either, but even if he was holding any, Bojing wouldn't still use any weapon to fight him. Fighting with weapons was just a waste of time to him. It wasn't in his blood.
“I like your courage.” Prince Junfeng admitted.
The fight began and all the other warriors were hailing them.
Bojing threw different numbers of punches, but prince Junfeng dodged it all.
“Come on. Come on…” Prince Junfeng teased him.
Bojing grew angrier and threw more punches at prince Junfeng, but all in vain.
Bojing raised his hand to give prince Junfeng a hot punch but this time around, prince Junfeng jumped like a lion who was trying to catch a bird in the sky and gave Bojing a hard punch on the throat, which caused him to fall flat on the ground. He was groaning in pain, and everyone was clapping for prince Junfeng.
“That's our great prince of this great kingdom.” Commander Bengt exclaimed and took his hand up to the sky.
“Prince Junfeng is a good fighter. Strong and brave”. Said one of the men to his colleague.
“He inherited it from his father”. His colleague replied.
“My prince, the king wants to see you right away”. One of the guards reported.
“What for?” Prince Junfeng asked as he slowly took out his hand from commander Bengt's palms.
“I have no idea about my prince. But he said he needs your presence right away.” The guard responded.
“Alright, lead the way.” Prince Junfeng said to the guard.
“Father, you sent it for me.” Prince Junfeng said as he stood in front of king Cheng.
“Yes, son. We have a serious problem on the ground.” King Cheng spoke with an angry look in his eyes.
“And what could that be, father?” Prince Junfeng asked.
“Cyprus!” King Cheng replied.
“Cyprus? What about the Cyprus father?” Prince Junfeng asked with surprise.
“Their men brought a letter to us.” King Cheng replied and stretched the letter to prince Junfeng.
“What is it all about?” Prince Junfeng asked as he extended his hand to collect it.
“Take and read it yourself.” King Cheng handed the folded letter to him.
“Oh! I can see that these people are ready for war, and I promise to give it to them.
They have the guts to say they can't give their princess to a land of prostitutes and evil men? I swear to take off the head of king Guozhi and those gray-haired elders.
No man will survive in that kingdom. I will bring them down by the sword given to me by my father.
I will spare no man, not even the women and children of their kingdom.
This is my promise to your father. That man called king Guozhi doesn't deserve peace and the entire kingdom.” Prince Junfeng grew furious and promised his father to do what it takes to eliminate the whole kingdom of Cyprus.
“Men of Cyprus, as you all know, today mark the 40th day since Gapsin sent their letter. Meaning, they will be here in the next 10 days.” Commander Lucifer stood in front of the Cyprus great army and addressed them.
“A warrior never gets tired of protecting his kingdom, nor can he give up on defending himself against the enemies. They are human beings like us. Fear not, and you would conquer. Stand strong and fight for the future of this kingdom.
The great army of Cyprus, will you stand and watch your enemies destroy your kingdom?” Commander Lucifer asked to encourage them.
“No way!” The army responded in chorus.
“Will you stand and fight for yourselves and the future generations, or will you run away like sheep running away from wolves?”
“I will keep to my promise. I will never break my oath, nor will I run away from my enemies.”
They all answered in chorus again.
“What can we say to encourage ourselves? Commander Lucifer asked as he raised his sword to the sky.
“No, retrieve! No surrender!”
They responded, raising their weapons to the sky as well.
“I love the courage of these warriors.” Princess Chu Hua said to her father.
They were standing at a far distance looking at the army.
“But father, do you think we would win this battle?” Princess Chu Hua asked her father.
“Why not? They always claim that they don't lose a battle, but this time around, they will be shocked. Although I don't know how big their army is now. But all I know is that victory is sure for us.” King Guozhi responded.
“Oh really?”
“Yes.” The king answered with confidence.
“Father, you said you don't know how big their army is right now. Does that mean that the more their women gave birth, the more their army increased?”
Princess Chu Hua asked her father.
“No Princess. The thing is, people from other kingdoms are leaving for the Gapsin kingdom, and one can't really guess how many people relocate there every blessed day. They keep increasing every day.”
King Guozhi explained.
“Oh. Now I see why you said so.”
Princess Chu Hua said.
“You know what?” King Guozhi said.
“No, until you say it out to me.” Princess Chu Hua answered.
"Anytime I look at you, I always feel like I am directly looking at your mother. The resemblance is too much. Her beauty, her smile, her behaviors, the way she talks, and most importantly, her lifestyle. Since I was born, I haven't seen any good woman like your mother. May her gentle soul continue to rest in peace.”
King Guozhi expressed his love for his late wife. Immediately, the mood on his face changed.
“Dad, it's okay. It has happened, you can't bring her back. Moreover, you always have me by your side. A daughter who won't disappoint nor leave you.” Princess Chu Hua comforted her father as she hugged him.
“It's okay, I'm fine.” King Guozhi assured her.
“Are you sure?” Princess Chu Hua asked.
“yeah.” King Guozhi replied.
“Okay, father. I have a question for you.” Princess Chu Hua said as she freed herself from the hug.
“Alright, go on.” King Guozhi answered.
“Okay. I believe that you were the one that proposed to my mother because you once told me that. But can a woman express her love to a man?"
Princess Chu Hua shyly asked.
“Why not? Though some people consider it a sin, I don't think it is a sin if you are up to age. Women are also humans that have feelings like men, so I don't consider it as a sin if a woman expresses her feelings to a man.” King Guozhi explained to her.
“Thank you, father. I thought that it may be a sin.” She comfortably responded.
“Not at all. But it's when the man says no, and you still force yourself on him that it will lead to another thing. However, why do you ask?” King Guozhi asked her.
“Nothing. I just feel like I should ask.”
Princess Chu Hua responded and smiled at him.
“Princess, are you sure?” King Guozhi asked her to confirm if she actually felt like asking without any problem.
“Yes, father.” Princess Chu Hua answered.
“My beautiful princess, wake up, it's already morning. Come on, wake up, mom wants to feed you. Let's go to the garden and play with my angel.”Those soft and caring words can't be forgotten. Princess Chu Hua was thinking of all the good times she had with her late mother. She can still feel her presence within her, even when the feelings weren't true the way she felt them.Princess Chu Hua thought to herself, “Mother, That was too early. Why must you pass away and leave me in this evil world? A world that is full of bad people. A world that is full of sorrow. You promised to always be by my side, but cold has taken your place. Where are those, your warming arms? Where are those lovely smiles? When will you come and take me with you?”All these questions were passing through her mind as she sobbed in tears while sitting in the garden alone. Her mother was the queen of the Cyprus kingdom. A caring queen with a godly heart. A virtuous woman, a good wife, and a mother who knows when some
“Hand over the sword to me,” prince Gen said to Aiguo, one of their men who was standing in his front, shivering like a sheep to be slaughtered.Some men laid accusations against Aiguo for sleeping while on duty. Jealousy caused it all. They were jealous of him because he was generous, which made the Gapsin women always go closer to him than them. He played with them a lot, but laying with women was not in his blood. He didn't come from another kingdom, unlike some men. Not only that but he was born and raised in Gapsin. The kingdom was not corrupted until Cheng became king, and everything changed.“Please, my prince, I am sorry. I promise never to try it again,” Aiguo fell to his knees as he begged for forgiveness, even when he was innocent.“Please ask him to forgive me,” Aiguo turned to commander Bengt to beg the prince on his behalf, but commander Bengt turned his back on him. Prince Junfeng forcefully collected the sword from Aiguo when he refused to hand it over to him.Command
“Father, today is our last day of preparation for this battle. I know Cyprus men must have been prepared for us.”Prince Junfeng said as he stood facing his father. King Cheng was sitting on his throne. Prince Gen was holding a long spear in his hand. The tip of the spear was touching the ground and the other side was facing the roof. His right hand was holding the spear in the middle, and he placed his left hand in akimbo style. His dark eyes were staring at his father. “Sure son. But believe me that I never fail to fulfill promises. Cyprus must be destroyed, and you must take your wife along while coming back home tomorrow.Nothing will stop us from getting what we want!” King Cheng exclaimed as he sat on his throne. The statement “nothing will stop us from getting what we want!” Makes him furiously hit his knuckle on the throne arm. That wasn't painful, though, because he wore a knuckle duster.“I wonder why he always wears this knuckle duster,” one of the guards standing at the e
“Victory!” Commander Bengt, who was on a horse in the battle front line, screamed as he raised his sword to the sky. His shield was placed on one side of the horse.“Yeah!” The Gapsin army screamed in response.The Gapsin army and Cyprus army were facing each other on the Cyprus battlefield. King Cheng came into the battlefield in his chariot, ridden by his men. He was dressed in armor with a helmet. Prince Junfeng who was also dressed in his full armor followed him at the back with a white horse.King Cheng dropped on the chariot and his sword and a helmet were brought to him, and he took them. King Cheng and prince Junfeng walked to the battle front line where commander Bengt was standing. Prince Junfeng was holding a long spear, a sword buckled on his waist belt, and a shield hanging on his back. He dropped from his horse as he took a good look at the Cyprus men who were standing from a far distance away from them. “Bengt.” Prince Junfeng called.“Yes, my Prince.” Commander Beng
“I'm ready to fight you to the last drop of my blood. Don't even dream of having me as your wife because it will never, ever work.” Princess Chu Hua said to prince Junfeng.“Wow! I like this. I like women with a man's heart, and that's precisely what I am seeing here.” Prince Junfeng teased her.“What's her name?” King Cheng asked commander Lucifer. “Here she is. You can ask her yourself.” Commander Lucifer replied with an angry look. “Buddy, relax. He isn't fighting you. He only asks a question. All he needs is an answer, and that's all. Why is your face looking like a monkey's face?” Commander Bengt jumped in.“Even if he keeps asking me this question for ages, he will never get an answer from me.” Commander Lucifer faced commander Bengt and replied to him.“I can see the stubbornness in you. But believe me, you will be the first person I will kill on this battlefield.” King Cheng warned Lucifer.“Old people don't brag with young youth, better watch your tongue.” Commander Lucif
Just a punch, commander Lucifer was already on the ground. “Come on. Stand up!” Bojing threatened him.One punch, the pain was already too much for commander Lucifer to bear. His sword felt far away from him, but Bojing took it and threw it back at him. Commander Lucifer stood and crawled to pick up the sword, which was a little inch away from him. He grabbed the sword and supported himself to stand up.The Gapsin men were screaming with excitement, hailing Bojing. King Cheng, prince Junfeng and commander Bengt were busy laughing at commander Lucifer.Princess Chu Hua was bitterly weeping but king Guozhi was petting her to remain calm, but that doesn't stop her from crying for the man she sees as her future husband. The entire Cyprus men were silent and worried.Commander Lucifer stood up and took a good look at Bojing. “That was a good try,” commander Lucifer said.“Until I break all your bones, then you will know that fighting me is not for people like you," Bojing said.“Go to h
“Have you seen what you have caused?Because of you, the whole world is laughing at me today. Since I came to this kingdom, I have never lost any battle before, but see what you have done. You brought disgrace to this kingdom.You decide to change the story of this kingdom because of your selfish interest.”King Cheng shouted at prince Junfeng.“Father! Please remember that you brought up the issue of me getting married to the princess because of your so-called revenge. When you were making the decision, did you ever ask for my opinion?No! You didn't. I decided to do it my way, and you didn't oppose it. That bastard called Bojing, gave himself to be slaughtered by that monster that calls himself a commander, and you are blaming me?” Prince Junfeng replied harshly.“Oh! Oh! Now I see. So, you don't want me to blame you because Bojing failed you, right? Why didn't you fight the commander yourself?” King Cheng angrily asked him.“How was I supposed to fight him when they were demanding
Commander Lucifer woke up the next morning and found himself on the same bed with princess Chu Hua. He was shocked from head to toes. He sat back on the bed as he stared at her glowing skin. Probably, she was wearing a nightgown, instead, she was wearing her usual princess gown. Because the gown was short-sleeved, her hands were exposed and due to her unusual turning on the bed, her legs were also exposed to the eyes. All The last thing commander Lucifer could remember about last night was that he rested his head on her shoulder, but he can't explain what happened next. In fact, he doesn't know how she managed to bring him to the bed. Why she decided to sleep in his small bed instead of going back to her soft bed, is what he can't explain. Princess Chu Hua was looking tired and stressed out from the previous day. Even though she doesn't seem to enjoy sleeping on Lucifer's bed, she had to because she knows what she wants. Not only because of what she wants, she is a caring person

Daiyu couldn't believe her ears. No, Queen Andarta can’t die so soon.She quickly ran to Queen Andarta and grabbed her hand.“No, Queen Mother. Don't do this, please.” Daiyu cried out, but Queen Andarta only smiled at her.Ignoring Daiyu's pleading, Queen Andarta took off her necklace that had a gem on it. She smiled at Daiyu whose tears were already flowing down her cheeks.“Kneel, Daiyu,” Queen Andarta announced.“No, Queen Mother. Don't do these to us, please. How do you intend me to face the remaining mermaids and tell them that you're dead? I can't do that, please,” Daiyu retorted as she was already aware of what Queen Andarta was about to do.“This is the only way out, Daiyu. Even if I don't die today, a day is coming that I must die and there would be no benefit to it. It isn't my wish to die now, but I have to for the benefit of everyone,” Queen Andarta explained with a smile curving her lips, yet her heart was not at peace.On the contrary, Commander Lucifer stood silent as h
Prince Junfeng went out of the ocean to the ocean side searching for Princess Chu Hua. He knew that Daiyu would do everything in her power just to escape with the Princess.Immediately Prince Junfeng stepped out of the ocean, every warrior quivered at the sight of him. He was glad that the people were afraid of him, and they wouldn't hesitate to answer any question he asked them concerning the Princess.After ensuring that he had inserted fear in everyone's mind, he changed back to his usual form as a human being.At first, the warriors at the ocean side weren't aware that he was the one, until he changed his form.The great ocean was rumbling as the battle between humans and the mysterious creatures went on.Prince Junfeng approached the warrior with anger written all over him.Upon seeing how angry he was, the warriors thought he was there to harm them As Prince Junfeng was about to open his mouth and speak,
Queen Andarta and commander Lucifer joined forces and fought Cthulhu and the other monsters. Although the battle was taking place under the ocean, one could see how the two enemies were exchanging fireballs against each other. On the contrary, Queen Andarta was using her powers to control the water, which became a barrier for the other monsters to get close to them.Despite how powerful Cthulhu was, it was difficult for him to conquer commander Lucifer, who had transformed into a different creature almost exactly like Cthulhu.Even though Commander Lucifer transformed into a different creature, he was still using the sword because it was the source of his powers.Now, when the monster saw how powerful Queen Andarta was, and killing her wouldn't be as easy as it seemed, one of the monsters left its team as though it were running away.Unfortunately, after getting a good opportunity, it turned around and planned to attack Queen Andarta from behind without her knowledge.White Queen An
“ This is the same person I have been dreaming about since childhood as my savior. Isn't she supposed to be a spirit?” her eyes widened.Princess Xiang could remember this face clearly. This is the same lady who had always saved her anytime the enemies launched an attack against them.She has been living her whole life thinking that this strange lady who always saves her life in her dreams was assigned to always protect her. Either spiritually or physically.Princess Xiang thought it was a spirit, but then she saw this savior right before her eyes. How is that possible?Has she come to guard me in real life?Princess Xiang was lost and confused about what she should take Princess Chu Hua as. The best option she had in mind was to wait for Princess Chu Hua to recover before she could ask her everything that she was curious to know.After standing in the sunny weather for a while, Daiyu went into the room and announced to the
Daiyu located a dark spot and hid to avoid being caught by Prince Junfeng who was approaching the entrance with a dark clouded face.She patiently waited for him to enter, so she could sneak out. As expected, prince Junfeng entered and carefully scanned the place from one corner to another.Immediately she noticed that Prince Junfeng's attention wasn't on the door, so she hastily sneaked out and swam to the ocean side.“ There is the Princess.” One of the warriors on the ocean side announced after sighting Daiyu coming forth with the Princess in her arms. Although he didn't know her in person, he was convinced that it was the Princess who was being rescued.“ Ohh no…. What happened?” They questioned each other after seeing her lying lifeless in Daiyu's hands.Was the battle over and no one could make it except for this lady who rescued the princess?They all wondered, but they were not sure if the battle was over becaus
Although Daiyu can swim fast, Prince Junfeng was faster than her because of his powers.The best thing she had in mind was to throw her spear at him, but she might wound the princess who was in his hands.“ Return the princess, you devil,” she said with gritted teeth.“ I will appreciate it if only you will listen to me. The Princess is losing a lot of blood and she needs urgent treatment. Allow me to treat her before you come to fight me.” He spoke as though he were pleading for the Princess. They were both still racing in the deep ocean, as they spoke to each other.“ You are never a herbalist, so what made you think I will allow you to escape with her?” “ Then do your worst, but believe me you can never snatch her away from me,” he replied with gritted teeth when he noticed that Daiyu wasn't going to give up on the chase.“ Then face my anger…!” Daiyu screamed to the top of her voice as she raised her spear and
“ Go after him!” commander Lucifer commanded.As they were about to go after Prince Junfeng who was escaping with the Princess, a force was used on the water which struck them back. Cthulhu had risen against them.The majority landed on the caves and died, while some were lucky to fall to the ground but they didn't sustain many injuries. And others were hit against rocks and stones.The ocean was filled with wailing in agony after being struck. Commander Lucifer, who also found himself on the cool stones, was roaring and crying in pain, although he wasn't wounded, he was passing through severe pain.Prince Junfeng used that privilege to escape, but Daiyu who was able to resist the recent incident went after him.However, as a mermaid, they can control water; the force Cthulhu used on the water was too powerful for them to resist. Only Daiyu was able to.Everyone struggled and stood up on their feet as they all picked th
“ My lady,” Prince Junfeng called out with sympathy after setting eyes on the pretty Princess who was wallowing in blood on the ground.The monster who stood above her was about to sink its claws into her body before biting off her throat, luckily for her, Prince Junfeng arrived before the monster could do that.“ Get off her,” Prince Junfeng punched the monster in the chest and he gave a fierce roar.Every monster which was inside that cave was controlled by Cthulhu. However, he arrived on the planet with some of them. This means he had countless creatures of different kinds who will assist him in fighting for the sword.Although Cthulhu thought he could do this alone, his master didn't hesitate to send him to the earth with a few monsters.These creatures hold no respect for humans, but Prince Junfeng was lucky to obtain kindness from Cthulhu, who gave him powers to fight his enemies.After he was given these powers, every mons
