The four legged animal looked like a horse but it's fur was far more different than a normal horse. It was as tall as a normal horse would be but it's eyes were burning fire while it's tail was thicker than a normal horse and the tail kept moving to the left and right. Starting from it's neck to the middle portion of it's eyes, the fire colored light kept glowing like a lava. And in some places of it's body, there were golden color light illuminating. There was a weird ominous aura surrounding it that even though Idris was standing kinda away from it, he could feel the aura. "It's looking in my way." He uttered, taking some steps backwards while the horse's eyes were fixated only on him. In the middle of the forest when not even the sound of a falling leaf could be heard, the horse seemed to brighten the forest. But it didn't give Idris any peace of mind, instead he was super worried. He scanned the surrounding and muttered under his breath, "It seems like either this horse lost it'
The hunting ground was supposed to be not so chaotic yet everywhere people were only talking, making a ruckus in places. "Guys, it's been so long since Idris has gone. Why is he still not back yet?""Everyone has came back except for him. Is he alright? Can it be that he got lost in the forest?""What if those boys bullied him again? Nobody will know anything if they bully Idris in the middle of the forest, maybe they really hurt him that's why he is not back yet? I know him, he is a warrior. But fighting back to five people can be tricky specially if the bad people are prepared."In the midst of the chaos, everyone was waiting for the last participant to arrive. "Oh, look at the situation we are in now. I told you that brat wouldn't be able to survive this time." Charles commented, as he saw the worried faces of Idris's friends. Lexhn clapped his hands and added with a smirk, "He was flying to high so that's what he deserves. Had he listen to us from the start, he would still be a
"Students, welcome back to Tyron Campus. Since your holiday is over now and your reports are out, today I will tell you where are you getting assigned to for work and everything that you need to know about it."Most of the students looked so excited that they started chattering again while Idris stood at a corner, his focus was somewhere else. "Don't worry about mother, she might be angry at you now but she will understand you soon. So don't worry too much and focus on your goal." Idris met Sasha but he didn't get to see Merle. Though he tried to but since Merle herself told him that she didn't want to see him, he was sad. After spending two days with his family, Idris headed back to the campus. 'Mother must be very angry at me since I came here without her permission. Even though two years has already passed, she didn't even come to see me when I left the palace yesterday night. But I really want to tell her why I'm doing this all. Mother... Sigh! I hope she forgives me and underst
The Windsor House was known to be quite a luxurious palace, it was beautiful and famous for it's variety of flowers in the garden. People said it had maids from different countries, from different cultures. [He has both fame and name. Marquis Elijah is indeed a noble man with a clean record, he is rich and powerful. He loves his kids but he has become heartless after his wife has died. But overall, he is a good man.]"I see, it's sad that he is too clean." Idris mumbled while keeping his head straight. [Host, do you want to know any other details? How about the son of Elijah Windsor?]Idris thought for a moment before saying, "No, thank you."Sitting on the chair in his office, a 41 years old man was reading some papers while Idris was standing still at a bit distance from the table. The man looked handsome and older than his age. He had wrinkles on his face, stress reflecting on his face. After general introduction, the marquis allowed everyone to leave except for Idris so there h
[Mission: Save Lord Archie.][Rewards: 297655 gold, 'Umbrella of Rain', Broken Elixir.]Idris bit his lips and turned off the screen, he got a new mission but he was yet to understand why would Archie be in trouble. He stayed mostly at home, with so many people around there was hardly a chance that he would get into some serious issues. Even if there would be one problem arising, who would be such an idiot to come and hurt the son of such a powerful man? 'Now, all I can do is to wait for the chance to appear. Let's see how things turn out and take care of them in my way.'Standing near the window in his room, Idris watched the serene night sky with admiration in his eyes. His roommates were already asleep and because he was in a new place, he couldn't fall asleep easily.Cling!Clong!Suddenly as a weird sound hit his ears, Idris quickly took a look around. Making sure the other two were deep asleep, he closed his eyes."Yes, Adam.""My Lord, I have got in contact with the people you
"Lord Archie, what are you talking a..."Cutting him off, Archie hushed him, "You stay quiet. I'm talking.""Father, I know I shouldn't have gone out. I am really sorry, please I request you. Do not punish Idris for this, if you want to punish anyone then it's me. Punish me." Archie insisted."But Lor...""I told you to stay quiet."Upon hearing him, Elijah couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Why are you laughing? Father.""Do you take your father as some criminal?""No, I..."Elijah nodded his head and put down what he was doing. For the first ever time, he saw his timid son standing up for someone. It was quite a show to him."This brave guard of yours has saved you not caring about his own life, why would I punish him?" Elijah questioned, raising his brows.Surprised to hear him, Archie stared at Idris in utter confusion, "Wait, wasn't my father punishing you?"Idris nodded his head in a strong denial and Archie heaved a sigh. "I'm so sorry, father. After I woke up, I heard the guar
His magnificent sword in one hand when he jumped down the tree, landing safely on the ground. On the floor, beaten up bodies along with some dead bodies could be seen lying everywhere.Idris looked at the old man for once then started walking away. Suddenly the old man called out for him, "Young man, wait."Confused, Idris looked around then he pointed his fingers towards himself as he questioned, "Are you talking about me? Sir.""Yes, please wait."Walking to him, the old man took a quick look from his head to toe and then he smiled at Idris, "Thank you for saving my life, young man. Uhmm, do you live here?""No, I was just passing by when I saw you were in trouble so I helped.""I see, what is your name then?"Idris smiled at him and answered, "It's Idris, sir.""Idris... what a nice name! Young man, will you mind helping me? As you can see, my men are... they are dead so please help me to get a shelter somewhere." The old man requested. Since the attack, though Idris managed to bea
"Yes, he said it right. Let him fight those guards, they will defeat him in one try and only then, people will know what a liar he is." The crowd chattered."I heard he saved Lord Archie once, do you think he was faking it? Maybe it was him who planned everything. He was the one attacking Lord Archie and he made a false report.""Yeah, it's possible. A cheater can't get a pass in the Windsor House, he must have pulled some strings to get there. How shameful of people doing these sh!tty things in this days."Everyone was looking at Idris, when some anticipated his answer some waited to see him cowarding at a corner and some waited to see him fight. The Duke of Rodrigo had an interesting look on his face as he saw how Idris seemed so unaffected."Hon Charles Devhoutte, I agree that the party will get boring if there's no means of entertainment." Archie added and Charles smiled at him in agreement. He gave Idris a pitiful look and let out a sigh, 'You see, even the man you work for wants
* A week later *"Madam, how about this dress? Would you like to try this one?""Wow, it looks so pretty. Yes, I want to try it. Do you think I will look good?" Cathy shyly looked at the dress that the shop owner showed her."Of course, you will look beautiful in it.""Thank you."Cathy was busy looking at the dresses, some maids were helping her while some were busy flattering her. "The palace has become more lively since she has been staying here, isn't it?" Walking to him, Willem gave him a pat on the shoulder and Idris's gaze shifted to him."Were you not busy working on the new project? Why are you here?" In a cold tone of voice, Idris questioned him."You don't seem happy that I'm here."Noticing how Idris was looking at him like he would beat the hell out of him anytime, Willem cleared his throat. "Yeah, I'm busy because of the project but I am here because... Lady Cathy has invited me to the evening's party.""You could have said no.""I don't want to."Not only Willem, anyon
* Six months later *Knock!No response. Knock again!No response. "Uhmm, Your Majesty. Maybe, Madam is reading books again. When she's too much into the book, she is delved into it she might not hear us." The head maid, Bora asserted so in a humble manner."Alright. I want to see my wife, you can leave.""Yes, sir."Standing outside the door, Idris waited for a moment before opening the door from outside. Inside the room, many ancient furniture was kept, it was decorated beautifully, a perfect room for a newlywed couple.He looked around in search of his wife and his eyes fixated on the sofa where she was laying on her stomach, her eyes glued to the book in her hand."Is the book that interesting? Are you having fun?"Upon hearing the voice, she looked at him and she jumped to hug him. "Idris, you are back.""I thought I was getting abandoned again." Idris voiced, with a pout."I'm sorry, I was... You know... too focused on the book so I did not hear the calling. Hehe." Cathy looke
"I have been wanting to kill you for a long time now, you have got such good luck that every time you are saved. But today, I promise you. You will die a painful death in my hand." Lionel confidently looked at his sword with which he had planned to stab him."Que el trueno caiga sobre tu cabeza.""Oh, come on. Do not try anything funny. You are going to die anyway." Idris closed his eyes and Lionel laughed again, thinking he was scared of him. There was barely an inch of distance between the two, taking a look at his sword as Lionel raised his hand to stab him suddenly the cloud started roaring.A thunderstorm that nobody ever saw in their lives befallen on the palace. Lionel took a step back and looked around, "What the heck is happening?"In no time, the guards were thrown at the wall and they fell on their stomach, screaming in pain. In utter disbelief, Lionel stared at Idris who stood still with closed eyes and in anger, as he moved forward a sudden coldness surrounded him."What
"So, is the emperor really going to put you in the position?"Letting out a sigh of defeat, Idris nodded his head. "I tried talking to him, I told him I don't need it but he did not listen. He insisted on doing it. He said that he will go back to the palace, talk to Lionel and others then make arrangements for me to take over the throne officially.""I can understand, he met his real son after all these years. Of course, he will want to give you everything that you have lost but the problem here is..."Interrupting Willem, he added in a heavy tone of voice, "The problem is my father does not know how dangerous Lionel is. Since he just woke up and is still in the recovery phase, I don't want him to be stressed so I did not tell him about Lionel's true identity but it's dangerous. I don't want him to know where the emperor is staying right now.""What is the emperor doing now?""He is waiting for Lionel to come... He did not want to wait longer so I could only shift him to my palace. He
"Idris, what are you doing here?""Mika, why is it you?"Idris couldn't believe he just met Mika, the shock of meeting her again after so many months had passed Idris was so overwhelmingly happy. "That's a long story, I cannot tell you about it right now. Mika, do you work for the emperor?""Uhmm, yes. Wait, don't tell me... Are you looking for the emperor?"Nodding his head, Idris took a look around. "I am here to find him but I don't know in which room he is at so I was here. Mika, please take me to him. I need to see him as soon as possible.""Someone is coming. Idris, come with me."Idris followed her, until now he was excited and had mixed emotions but now when he was getting closer to meet him, he did not know what he felt.Stopping in front of the door, Mika suddenly stopped. She bit her lips while taking a step back."Mika, what's wrong? We need to hurry or else someone will see us.""You can't enter.""What do you mean?"In a sad tone of voice, Mika explained, "Only the chos
"Mr. Willem, do you think things will go as we planned?" Cathy asked, looking out the window worriedly. "I hope it does. I am also worried but I believe Idris has his plan.""Yes, I also trust him. I know when he plans something he will put his mind to it and give his 100% but... But still, it's the emperor this time. And the crown prince is not a human, he is a psychopath. What if... Something goes wrong? I can't help thinking about it." Cathy added. Like Idris said he had a plan but he left to do the task all by himself.Willem let out a sigh and nodded his head, "You are right. I am also worrying about that, let's hope for the best.""Yes..."* The Serenity Palace *"My prince, here...""Aaaa."A woman on his left fed him a fruit while Lionel was laid on the couch, leisurely moving around and looking at his other women who were serving him. While some massaged his body, some were busy feeding him fruits and some were in other things."My prince, would you like some wine?" One of t
"What do you want to say? Just say it. Miss Alpin." Lia moved forward a little, her hands trembling as she asked, "Are you really married?""Yes." Idris firmly answered."But you were supposed to wait for me. You..." Lia held onto the corner of her gown as she found it hard for the words to come out of her mouth, "You should have married me. We...""Miss Alpin... I have never said that I would marry you.""No, you...""I still remember what I told you that day. I told you, Miss Alpin that you will find someone better. I was not worthy of your care." Idris voiced out stiffly. Since the last time he met Lia, he thought that was their last meeting. Though at first he felt bad to use her, but he hoped she would meet someone better and not get involved in the world's conspiracy but..."It's... It should not be like this. I have been waiting for you for so long, Idris. I have left everything and focused on only getting to meet you again. I have done all I could to come this far, then why.
* Two months later *"Young Master, Duke Idris has arrived."Taking a sip in the glass of wine, Lionel looked at the butler who had his eyes fixated on the floor. The butler who worked for him, looked strangely calm yet the uneasiness and fear he was having couldn't escape Lionel's gazes. He leaned a little backwards in his chair and questioned in a gentle tone of voice, "How about my guest?""She is waiting for the call in the guest room."Lionel stared at the nearest building and nodded his head slightly, "Alright, it's time for a great show. Get him here.""Yes, Young Master."'The Serenity Palace', was known as the emperor of Oregano, Randolph Arshelan's palace. Rumours had it that the emperor was too infatuated with the palace for some reason so he wouldn't let anyone not even his son in the palace. Seated on his horse, Idris looked at the magnificent building in the distance. His eyes fell on the board on which the words 'Serenity Palace' were carved beautifully. His hatred was
"Of course, we can meet on the weekend as well. Though I have a busy schedule but for you, I can make time. Let's go on a date..."Kian was busy talking to a woman he met in the banquet, as he saw Cathy in a vulnerable state he was hella worried. "Lady Cathy, what happened? Why do you look like this?""Idris... He...""What happened to boss? Where is he?" Kian looked in the direction she just came from but sadly, he couldn't see him and he got more tensed."Idris... Idris jumped from the building. In... In front of my eyes, he...""What? Where did he jump? Wait, take me there."Kian ran after Cathy, going to the exact location from where Idris jumped awhile ago Kian kept searching around but he couldn't even smell Idris's cologne. "What happened? Tell me from the beginning.""We... We were..."* * *"Huff!""Huff!"Everywhere his gaze fell on, Idris could see only dark. His breath hitched and his legs were literally trembling. Idris didn't know for how long he had been running but hi
