"For now, if you want to fight for the throne, you need to earn merits. Show me and my inner court that you are worthy to be the Earth Immortal."
Prince Ling remembered every single word that his father, his majesty the Earth Immortal, said to him a couple of days before they headed on a journey. He may still be fooling around with Yang, Princess Aloisa, and his former teacher, Ling at times but he never forgets the mission.Well, it would be hard for him to forget that very moment. His father usually has extra-long patience for him. Although Ling is stubborn almost all the time and loves fooling around, his parents, especially the Eath Immortal, didn't give up on leading him towards the righteous way. Maybe he hoped that one day, this mischievous prince will lead the country as he does in the present. Or it could also be a fatherly love - guiding his naughty child to be a gentleman of glory and honor.
"How?" His highness cluelessly asked his father who is looking
"This is nothing. Just be careful of what you eat though. You might not be able to make it back to your country." Said his majesty as if not being able to return to one's homeland isn't that big of a deal. Although he smiles at his guests, the tone he used is neutral. And so, it's hard for Ling and others to tell if he's just kidding or seriously warning them."Is his majesty serving some dishes with poison?" Prince Ling asked the Fire Immortal without looking away from the food in front of him.He secretly hopes that the Fire Immortal will tell them the truth. And they really are poisonous, his highness prays that his majesty or at least Eva will help them avoid those.But on the second thought, why would he help them? Doesn't sound like a hunter who warns his prey for the trap? And one more thing, why would he reveal that he put poison on their food before they get to have a bite? It's like he's fishing on a vast sea using a net with hug
It's nearing twilight so the daytime duties of the soldiers assigned in the Northern borders of the Earth Kingdom are almost over.They're having a good day, a peaceful day if the soldiers were to describe it. They're having fine weather and no issues with the Fire Kingdom, except their crown prince went out of their gates to go to the neighboring country. With Prince Ling setting forth towards the mentioned country, they got their hopes up and are looking forward to hearing good outcomes."Is that a meteor?" A soldier said while looking in the reddish-orange sky.He noticed a huge ball of fire in a distance and he couldn't define what it is. It travels fast so he can't clearly see the said object."Where?" Another soldier asked him as he looks up, looking for what his comrade is talking about.The first man who saw the unidentified object pointed at the sky.Hearing this little conversation, Prince Jin looks up to where his subordinate is pointin
Did you know? The Reverend Master wasn't the only God we used to worship. The god of all creation once has a wife. It was the Goddess named Alunsina. She's known to be cheerful, beautiful, artistic, loves pretty things, and most of all, one of the most powerful creatures of that time.Before being worshiped as a Goddess, Alunsina was the first air elemental shapeshifter to ascend into the highest court of the Reverend Master as that period's Air Deity. The Reverend Master, later on, fell in love with the beautiful Alunsina and so the Revered Master asked for her hand and married her.They lived happily. Unfortunately, things didn't end that way.The Reverend Master, as we have always known, is busy with his everyday duty as our creator. He continued to create living and non-living things. His duties do not limit to that. He's also dealing with matters no inferior of him could understand.On the other hand, Alunsin
Everybody is like, "Follow your heart." However, things don't always go your way. Sometimes one will find oneself ending up with frustrations. Sometimes feeling dishearted even. Later on, one will get tired of following his heart and will eventually think that maybe, he'll just catch up to it later if he feels like it.They also say, "Chase your dreams." But no matter how one struggles, sometimes, it seems it's still out of reach. Impossible to achieve. There will be times that one will feel like not wanting to dream anymore.And what's the worst is that when one decided to follow his heart and chase his dreams and people got displeased.It's hard to make everyone happy. To do so, sometimes, one must give up his own.Before the Earth Immortal ascended into the throne, like everyone else, he was once a child. A child full of hopes and dreams, only to be crushed by people's expectations. Just because he is the oldest son of the royal fa
"Can't you do anything good for once?!"Prince Jin pushed his cousin, Prince Ling on the shoulder which made the latter lose his balance and fall on the cold hard floor. Although he didn't expect a good outcome from the crown prince, the second prince can't help but still feel annoyed. He thought that if this younger cousin of his couldn't convince the Fire Immortal to agree to the treaty, at least he could have prevented this nightmare. The Fire Kingdom, whose known to be very aggressive and number one in wars, just declared war on the peace-loving kingdom of the Eastern Lands.By the time Ling, Master Lian, Yang, and Aloisa arrived at the Earth Kingdom, soldiers from the Fire Kingdom are already on the verge of breaking into the Northern borders. Their gates and tall walls are attacked multiple times using catapults and mortars until they successfully turn them down. Horses and marching men in red armors invaded the territory of the Eastern Region. With swords and shie
As young as twelve years old, the second prince of the Earth Kingdom, Prince Jin, has been repeatedly told by his father,"Your cousin, Prince Ling couldn't show his full potential using his spiritual powers for some complicated reasons. He only mainly relies on his physical strength. As his elder cousin, you should protect him when he gets into a pinch, okay?""Yes, father." The little Prince Jin obediently nods his head without asking any questions. All he knows is that his cousin is having trouble using his spiritual powers. As someone who doesn't have a problem with his flow of spiritual energy, as well as being the "elder" of the two, he got the feeling that protecting the crown prince from harm is his duty as the general's son.Well, Jin is technically older than Ling by more or less a month. Even though their age gap isn't that very notable, he still sees Ling as his younger brother. They were close. He always visits
Thorny vines shoot upwards as fast as a single second, aiming for the agile flying enemy. Just a slight brush of these vines would result in a deep wound. However, the target is a lot faster than these sneaky florae.Meanwhile, the phoenix beautifully dances in the air and at the same time, dodges the charges that its opponent releases. Its long tail gracefully sways in its every turn despite its high speed. Truly a sight to admire but an annoying foe because its enemies' attacks always seem to be delayed by at least a split second."Why won't you show me your beautiful wings and fly with me? The breeze is so-"The Fire Immortal couldn't finish what he has to say when the Earth Immortal shoots another set of vines.Just by looking at these thorny creeping plants, the king of the Eastern Lands vividly shows that he is not in a friendly mood with the other. In fact, all this time, his majesty silently demonstrates that he has no intention of agreeing with the
Those Alunsina's beads that were scattered in the night sky shine brightly alongside her beautiful crescent-shaped comb. If one will look at it, it seems it's exactly the same as the scenery that the night has to offer every after twilight. Unfortunately, the scenery that the land has to show isn't as peaceful as the quiet night but a chaotic scene instead. Crimson red blood drips from the brave men's blade, flowing all throughout to its sharp pointed tip down to the land of life. The bloodshed has begun. A war for the sake of peace... how ironic.There's fire wherever they turn. Residential houses burning, countless bodies of soldiers bathing in their own blood sprawling on the cold hard ground. Flowers stained by blood cries in silence together with the little floral spirits. Who would have thought that the land of the admirers of life that only wants peace and abundance would someday be showered with terror, hatred, and helplessness? Who would ha
