It turned out that Xander's form was a hoax, he never came here at all. Seeing their steps getting closer, Flora immediately fled down the path that was again pitch black. Even from the ground came a puff of smoke like dew in the early morning, obscuring sight. Making it difficult for Flora which way she had to follow again. Because the road turned terrible without a house on each side. Only one or two trees are so far away.Flora was confused, maybe other children if faced with this position would definitely scream for their parents. But this does not apply to Flora, because the ones who want to harm her were her own mother and father. What an irony."Flora? Help me!"Flora heard Xander's voice. The direction is from the shady tree in front of it. It's not very clear to see, because the smoke that surrounds the whole journey makes it difficult to see anything."Flora! I am here!"Again the voice echoed, reviving the eerie atmosphere. Flora slowly headed for a tree that was thought to
While Flora, at the edge of her consciousness, her spirit seemed to be meeting with Rose. The two of them clasped hands to the road in front of which there was a circular passage with a purplish blue light. She felt that she would soon follow her sister to the realm of immortality.Not without reason Flora thought that way, because all her joints and bones were no longer able to move, the eyes that could no longer be opened, the breath getting weaker, and the body locked up was getting more and more tormented. Flora was truly hopeless. She surrendered if her life was enough to get here.Bug!Suddenly Flora's body fell. It was all because Queen Castalia who came down to earth attacked Lorenza and Jonathan. The Queen gave instructions with a wink to Fairy Luna to bring Flora to the royal palace to immediately be treated with a potion of lake water.Xander ran to Flora who collapsed unconscious, he hugged her anxiously. But when he hold the pulse on her wrist, it still throbbed even thou
Lorenza and Jonathan are transferred to a confinement room by Patih Nuvoleon. He is the confidant of the Queen Castalia and King Valderman who has served for hundreds of years.The unstoppable longing, made Queen Castalia hug the princess so tightly. There was a happy cry that flowed from the corner of the queen's eyes. Then the Queen Castalia gathered hundreds of servants and aides outside the palace, precisely in a gathering place as large as a football stadium.On the palace balcony, Queen Castalia stood with Flora, Xander, and Fairy Luna. She announced that Princess Anastasya had returned after twenty years imprisoned on earth due to the actions of King Lagarde. However, Queen Castalia has not been able to give the princess crown to Flora, for various reasons of course.A lively welcome echoed in the palace of the Land of Light. Obviously everyone was happy for the arrival of the princess. Because with her return to the palace, it was the beginning of glory. The king will return,
"Stupid! Stupid!"The King who had lived for a century and a half was raging. He swept away all the guards that were around him, becoming the food of his anger."My goodness, King. Don't finish us off again."One of the guards apologized."Shut up!" snapped King Lagarde.The big man continued to beat whatever was near him. But none of the guards dared to run or dodge, because if that was done, King Lagarde would be even more furious and could even take his life the way he liked.Evidently, many bodyguards were killed by swords due to the anger of King Lagarde. Therefore they do not want to experience the same thing. That is the consequence if assigned to be a bodyguard who is inside the palace, in contrast to the bodyguard who is outside the palace.Just like Lorenza and Jonathan whose whereabouts were unreadable, so was Flora. She must have met the Queen of Castalia at the palace of the Land of Light ."God damn it!"King Lagarde could already read, the first thing Queen Castalia did
Frans's cold demeanor made Flora feel bad. She realized that she had disturbed the grandfather's comfort. Flora also understood, which parent wouldn't be worried if the child or grandchild would go on such an extreme journey. Thankfully if the track could be reached, even Flora herself didn't know how difficult the obstacles would be."If Grandpa doesn't let me, I don't mind going alone," Flora said."No, Grandpa will definitely give permission." Xander replied by touching the back of Flora's hand that was on her knee.Then Xander was asked to go to the living room by the grandfather, leaving Flora alone."Don't be careless, my grandson. The sky realm is a danger to humans, no matter how strong you are, you still won't be able to have a spare life if one day is threatened. Unlike that girl, no matter how weak she is, she can definitely survive because she has a lot of life reserves and has parents. with all his might." The grandfather concluded, his voice slightly lowered, afraid that
After traveling for 14 hours and 30 minutes, the plane they were traveling in finally landed at Rio de Janeiro International Airport, Brazil. Flora and Xander immediately booked a taxi to the nearest hotel just to rest. Because it was evening, and it seemed impossible for them to continue their journey into the forest at this time.Arriving at the hotel, they headed to the reception desk. Because it was intended for one night only, so they only booked one room. When the night came, they were very cold because in Brazil it was already winter.Until the next day, Flora and Xander, who had everything ready, immediately ordered a taxi to go to the tropical rain forest. There were no serious conversations on the way, only silence between them. Until they finally arrived at the forest gate that Queen Castalia meant.Both were stunned."You didn't choose the forest wrong, Flo?""No, this is in accordance with what is on the map. The Amazon jungle." Flora answered while looking back at the go
The anaconda is getting closer, Xander advises not to run. Because it's useless, the anaconda is guaranteed to be much faster than the two of them.Then Xander took out a knife from his carrier. He took a lying position flat on the ground, straightened his arms at his sides and pressed his feet together. With great fear, Flora took the position as Xander suggested and they lay down 1 meter apart."Keep your chin in, Flo!" Xander whispered without turning his head.Flora closed her eyes as the anaconda began to touch and climb up past her."Do not panic!" Xander whispered again.Flora was trying not to panic and be afraid, but still sweat the size of a watermelon seed dripping down her entire body. In her life, she had never thought that she would meet a giant snake like this.Flora widened her eyes as the anaconda slowly started to swallow Xander's legs, but strangely the man remained calm. But when the anaconda's mouth reached its knees, Xander bent down and slashed at the side of th
On the second day, Flora and Xander resumed their journey. After packing up the tent and loading all the other items into the carrier, they started walking through the forest. This time, their journey was very slow, more rest. Because Flora's legs were swollen from the snakebite last night.Don't ask how the pain the girl feels. But silence is also not the way out. If she had been in the jungles of Asia, she would have been able to find a Mongoose plant that was proven to be effective in killing the poison that had spread."I seem to be late, Flora. I should have sucked the poison on your leg last night," Xander said breaking the silence."That's not the right way either, Xander. Most people think if it's sucked in or inhaled, the poison will come out, but that's wrong," said Flora breathlessly."Shouldn't we just call the Queen Mother to heal your leg? At this first hurdle, we haven't asked for help." Xander made a suggestion.Flora shook her head. She was indeed very tired, perhaps
