Previously, on Sword Of Vengeance,
General Bale became embarrassed after he had been snapped out of his wildest imagination. It's a relief that Princess Lirl had no idea what was going on in his mind. "Sorry, what were you asking me to do?." General Bale apologized rubbing the back of his head with his hand. "We're moving out him outside" Princess Lirl answered hurriedly, going outside ahead of him. General Bale braced himself, lifting the body from the bed. He felt a jolt of repulsive energy coursing out from his body; it was like an invisible barrier keeping people at bay from establishing direct contact with him. No wonder, Princess Lirl lost her stamina and flew backwards the other time she touched his neck using her bare hand. It was draining him faster than he could ever imagine. Hurriedly, he gritted his teeth carrying him outside. "Drop him into the water." Princess Lirl said, telling him what to do. General Bale nodded, doing as he was told. He stood up, taking several steps away from the tub breathing heavily. A Wild, scorching hiss filled the atmosphere as a violently sharp molten metal collided with ice. Anchoring an unbearable heat and steam which rose in great plumes, colliding and twisting in the unconfined air. Carrying acrid the stench of iron or something darker, nauseating their stomach and choking their lungs. Coughs echo into the silent night as they retreat farther from him. The surface of the water turned frothy, releasing a vicious, guttural howl as it began to seethe and churn.The bubbling intensified, each pocket of air bursting with increasing ferocity, until the chaos reached its breaking point—erupting into a violent underwater explosion that sent shockwaves rippling outward.
Splashing in all directions. Instinctively, Bale took the bait by protecting Princess Lirl. General Bale winced as the water splashed on his back, white curling smoke emanating from his back after that. Princess Lirl, on the other hand, was shocked, too, to her core. When the explosion occurred, which resulted in a splash, she realized that at the place, she was standing, it was going to splash on her face, but she failed to react on time. Had General Bale not protected her, it would have splashed on her face instead. Which would disfigure her beautiful face for life. Her grip on her gown tightens until her knuckles are almost white. However, after that General backed away from her. "Bale" She whispered, her eyes widening like saucers. "It's okay Princess, I am fine. " General Bale grimaced in pain, refusing to look at her. Gaze fixated on the wooden tub instead. "You have a blister at the back of your neck; come here, let me get it treated." Princess Lirl protested worriedly. "Princess, you need to see this. " General Bale said, trying to avoid getting close to Princess Lirl again. Princess Lirl appears from his back. Standing beside him. Curiously, Princess Lirl walk up to the wooden tub taking a closer look. The first thing she noticed was the absence of the massive hole in his chest. It had vanished entirely as if it had never existed.Every minor wound, scratch, and bruise had also disappeared, leaving his skin unblemished.
She hesitated for a moment before reaching out a tentative finger to touch his skin. His body was warm and smooth—completely unlike the cold, lifeless texture from before. Soft and tender, almost like that of an infant. Fascinated, she pressed two fingers lightly against the side of his neck. Though his pulse was faint, it was steady. More astonishingly, his chest rose and fell with shallow breaths. How could this be possible? General Bale was right, he's not human. She turns back, gaping at General Bale and then Jenny. "He's alive! He is................breathing." Princess Lirl rasped, choking on her words. Did he use the water to transform himself? General Bale took several steps forward, seeing things for himself. "So unbelievable" He rasped, hunching and reaching out and extending the length of his arms into the water. Enjoying its soothing warmness until he attempts to carry him from the wooden tub. "Argh" General Bale grunted, slumping on his knees with a mixed expression on his face. How strange. How could he be staying afloat and, at the same time, heavy? "What's wrong?" Princess Lirl's eyes widen in fear. "Princess, this guy has suddenly become heavy. I can't get him out of this tub alone." General Bale paused mid-sentence. "I'm afraid we're going to need more men for this." He continued, rising slowly on his feet leaving Princess Lirl and Jenny behind. Minutes later, he came back with dozens of his underlines. For minutes they couldn't hide the shock on their faces. They gape at a full-grown, naked, muscled, ripped man staying afloat in the water in the bathtub. To make things more absurd, the Princess and her maid were there too. "Ahem, enough sightseeing. Let's get him off the tub and move him inside" General Bale spoke deeply, trying to be brave. He could virtually interpret every meaning behind the emotions on their faces. "Yes, sire !." The warriors saluted in unison exchanging glances. Perplexed as to how their General will require their help in carrying a body that is already afloat on the water. To them, the man there looking at them is as good as dead. Not until when they all tried to lift him.With great restraints, they lifted the body out of the tub, hunching their backs and sweating profusely till they dropped him inside the tent.
With a mixed impression on their faces, they marched out of the tents stretching their limbs. General Bale turned to Princess Lirl. "Princess, we can't continue to leave him naked like this. It's high time we dress him up." General Bale suggested. "Don't worry Bale, I'll be the one to do that." Princess Lirl said deep in thought. "Geez! No, Princess, you can't do that." General Bale exclaimed in frustration. "Why not?" Princess Lirl rolled her eyes, frowning this time around. "Because he is a man. A full grown man Princess, he deserves some respect." General Bale fired back. "Let me make something clear, Bale, I was the one who found him, not you. And as far as I am concerned, he has become my asset ." Princess Lirl said calmly, not backing down. "Oh! Come on. Really?" General Bale rasped, frustratedly holding his hands up. "Yeah really. And.. oh! Now you know he is a man, right? Didn't you refer to him using words like a monster, being, and creature earlier on?" Princess Lirl mocked, folding her hands underneath her breasts. "Fine! Have it your way" General Bale whispered by keeping his rage in check and then stormed out of the tent. "Let's dress him up ." Princess Lirl turned to Jenny, who had been there the whole time witnessing their heated argument. "Yes, your grace." She answered.Previously, on Sword Of Vengeance A deafening roar shakes the earth as a blinding flash of light engulfs the horizon for a fleeting moment. Resulting in a massive, searing fireball that rises from the ground, illuminating the dense, mysterious forest in fiery hues of orange and yellow. Rippling the air with heat, and a towering mushroom cloud that billows upward, stemming an unrelenting column of ash and smoke.As the cloud above blossoms outward, its edges glowed like molten metal, radiating destruction and power. The ground trembles as shockwaves ripple through the air, scattering debris and shredded pieces of flesh in all directions. General Bale groaned, rolling onto his side as the world spun around him. The high-pitched ringing in his ears drowned out the distant cries, leaving only muffled echoes of chaos.He blinked hard against the haze clouding his vision. Shaking his head, he planted his hand on the dirt to push himself up, swaying unsteadily on his knees befo

A deafening crack of thunder shattered the silence, echoing as the sky began to twist in spirals, forming a menacing vortex, it struck down directly on the leader of a Leaf-like humanoid creature, sending cold chills down its spine.The larger carriage beside the smaller one began to shudder violently as the wind surged in fierce waves and swirling rings. Suddenly, a forceful gust erupted from within, tearing the carriage apart in an explosive cascade of splintered wood and debris ensued by a sharp gust of wind that tore through the air, whipping strands of Princess Lirl’s hair against her face.

Her body tumbled uncontrollably across the scorched terrain, jagged rocks tearing at her flesh as she rolled.Her momentum came to a brutal halt as her head collided with a sharp boulder, a sickening crack echoing through the air.A crimson stream bursts out front of the gash of her temple, painting the rugged ground in vivid streaks of blood.Gasping for air, her chest rose and fell in desperate uneven heaves as she struggled to draw air into her battered lungs.Her limbs trembled uncontrollably, her body writhing as she fought against pain and fatigue that threatened to consume her. Gritting her teeth, she pressed her palm into the hot, unforgiving earth, her fingers clawing at the dirt in a desperate attempt to rise.

It shimmered and danced. A persistent and unrelenting force that refused to fade, defying the passage of time. The glow seemed alive, pulsating with an energy that neither dimmed nor wavered, as though it were tethered to him, bound by some unseen will.As it pressed forward, the world around it blurred into a vortex of motion, the boundaries of time and space bending in its wake.

Kalus plummeted through the void, his screams swallowed by the endless expanse of shifting, prismatic light. The world above spiralled away, shrinking into a distant pinprick of sunlight until it vanished altogether. Darkness enveloped him, and his consciousness dissolved into nothingness. He jolted. He gasped, coughing as he regained his senses. Cool, damp soil pressed against his cheek, gritty and damp. The distant roar of waves filled his ears, their rhythm steady and hypnotic. And slowly, he pushed himself up on trembling arms, blinking against the brightness of the sun now hanging low in the sky. Before him stretched an endless ocean, its waters shimmering with hues of gold and silver under the fading light. The salty breeze stung his face as he took in the vast, alien expanse. He touched his chest, confirming he was alive. But where was he? And more importantly, how had he survived? He groaned, crawling to the ocean, drinking greedily from its waves till he quenched his
"I won't let you die, I promise. " Kalus said sobbing. He began to rack his brain, desperately thinking of a way to save her. He knew for sure that he couldn't have leapt that high into the air without the help of the throbbing mark. If the mark could aid him in achieving a stunt like that, it should be able to save her in one way or the other. Although he doubts if it will ever work on his own accord, he's still willing to try. He gently laid Cathiana on the grass, removing the knife plunged into her heart and press down on the wound to stop the bleeding while he closed his eyes in agitation. "Heal! Heal !!" He muttered, frustration building as he tried to channel the mark on his wrist to work in his favour. "Shit !!" He cursed slamming his bloody palm on the grass beside her. "Why on earth is it not working? Focus! Kalus focus !" He rasp trying harder. Slowly, a sense of comfort washed over him, and his soul transcended to a serene realm surrounded by tranquil waters.

Previously, on Sword Vengeance, General Bale spreads a blanket on the carpet grass and lies on it. Enjoying the silent night to himself while he stares at the beautifully eerie moon glowing amidst the sky. Which made him remember his childhood days. If his family had not been attacked and killed in the war, he wouldn't be right now working under Lord Azril. "Bale " Princess Lirl called out from the shadows. General Bale became rigid, sitting upright. He was surprised that Princess Lirl would seek him out at this hour. "Princess?" General Bale called, unsure if the voice he heard was hers. Princess Lirl came out of nowhere and stood before him. She was wearing a transparent silver gown that illustrated her physique underneath. Her appearance tonight gave an impression of a warrior to General Bale. But he doubted if she could fight. "Ahem, can I sit?" She cleared her throat; she was kinda nervous. "You haven't told me what you're doing h
"Yes my Lord." General Bale saluted. "Good, let her know we'll be moving by sunset tomorrow." Lord Azril said, discarding his presence. "Yes my Lord " General Bale saluted. "You may take your leave, Bale." Lord Azril sighed and settled back to sit. General Bale saluted one last time and turned to the door, opening it and disappearing behind it. He stopped briefly ruminating on what Lord Azril had discussed with him. He's right; after all, hoping that Princess Lirl could fall in love with him is wishful thinking. Instead of returning to her tent, he headed in the opposite direction. "Bale !" She called his name. General Bale froze in his tracks. She seems to be been waiting for him to come out. This lady will be his destruction if he isn't careful. Instead of turning to face her, he just continued walking onward. "Are you avoiding me now because my Father told you to ?" She asked, hurrying after him. "No " General Bale fired back, avoiding her. "What do you take me
