Avila POVI stopped walking for a moment and stepped back a little to take a look at father's room, my forehead wrinkled when I saw a man, he was old and he was talking to Zagreus. What is this person talking to our brother?I just shook my head when I realized that this person made an agreement with my brother, people after all.A few days passed, it's my one hundredth birthday today and I'm happy because I can go to the world of human. Every birthday I go to the world of human to mingle with them.I went to father's room to say goodbye when I realized he wasn't there."Where is father?" I asked Alada who was sitting next to mother who was sleeping."With Zagreus." It answered then looked at me. "By the way, take that girl to the empty room," she said and then pointed to the side of father's room. I frowned when I saw an unconscious woman lying there.I approached it and smelled it."Why is she here?" I asked, I looked again at Alada who was busy fixing her nails."Compensation in ag
"Prince Pavel, come in here. It's already night!" Pavel turned to the old man standing at the gate."Just wait, maybe Ksara will come, I'll wait for her first." I heard Pavel say. Gabriel put his hand on his head."You've been here for a while, you might catch cold. You wait inside here!" Gabriel said so I turned my gaze to Pavel who turned his gaze back to the road."Later, I'm still waiting for Ksara." My chest seemed to tingle at the tone of Pavel's voice, I could see from where I was standing that he was tired and bitten by mosquitoes.Does he do that thing every day? Has he been waiting for my arrival every day since I left?I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, this is not the right time for me to return to you Pavel.I opened my eyes and saw Pavel again sitting in front of Gabriel's house and playing with stones."I'll be back, when I've fixed the mess." I whispered to myself and smiled. I was holding the bracelet that Pavel gave me. "You will be king, that's a promise." Wh
Long curly horns, long and sharp black claws, large red wings, a long black tail divided into three and pointed at each end, black eyes, pointed ears, lion-like feet, and long white hair moving spontaneously. That's what Cynrad sees now.I turned around and took a deep breath, even with my back turned I could smell the fear running through his soul. I closed my eyes to stop myself from yearning for his soul. I can't hurt Cynrad, he's Pavel's friend and part of my past.I have to be patient."This is the reason Cynrad." My voice seemed to be the melody of death, far from my voice every time I merged with my human body."I understand if you are afraid of me, you can leave again." I said looking at him, he was surprised by my sudden stare."But I beg you, don't let Pavel know my true identity. Let it remain a secret between the two of us." I said, he didn't say a word because it looks like what happened hasn't entered his brain yet. Any person would be scared if they encountered a demon.
I felt Cynrad's tight grip on me, he was afraid, I could feel it. And probably Area also feels the fear that my companion feels. "We have no intention of causing trouble." I said, Arae crawled towards me, I even looked up because of Arae's size, she smiled at me."Is that so? You're boring then." She says."I need your help." I said so her eyebrows rose, she suddenly burst out laughing and crawled to her throne surrounded by snakes with two heads."A demon seeks help from a queen of curses." She said laughing and then shaking her head with laughter. "Tell me black angel, have your demon powers weakened?" She laughed at the question. I bent my hand to hide."Others like me have nothing to do with the help I'm asking for." I said that made her face even more amazed."Really? That's why you have the courage to enter my place." She said and then laughed."What help are you going to ask me for?" She asked while playing with a large snake next to her."A curse covers the... place they cal
I sat quietly waiting for Cynrad to wake up, it had been an hour since we returned to the human world. I took a deep breath and looked at the sky that sparkled with so many stars.I failed. I failed to talk to Arae, I failed to help Pavel."I shouldn't have fought her." I whispered to myself. I shook my head. I did the right thing, she thinks too highly of herself, it's not because she's a powerful creature that I won't let her down. I am still Ksara, one of the princesses of the underworld and holder of the fourth circle.I bowed down, blasphemous Arae. May she suffer in her cave.But what? What will I say to Pavel when we get back to them? I'm excited for him but I don't want to disappoint him. I didn't even do anything to lift the curse on Winsoul and make him king."I've become a burden." I whispered to myself and swallowed. I stared at the sky again. If only I could ask for help from above. But vaguely, I'm sure they'll just laugh at me and like Arae did, they'll probably look do
My tears continued to flow as I hugged him, I cried while he was locked in my arms."Sorry, I failed." I whispered to him."Ksara, what are you talking about?" he asked confused, he was about to break away from the hug when I tightened it."Please, don't let go, I can't look at you because I have nothing good to tell you." I said, he was silent. "I can't even help you." I added while hugging him."Ksara." He called me softly. "Is it because of the curse?" he asked. I didn't answer. "Ksara, don't worry about that." He says. I remained silent."There's nothing we can do about that." He added. Inside I was shaking my head. I know, that I can do something to make that thing go away but I don't know what is the way to make it go away. The chance to help Arae and I was wasted, the only chance was wasted."Then Ksara, I don't want to be king anymore. It's enough for me to be a normal creature as long as I'm by your side." He said and then released from the hug. He turned to me and smiled, he
"Really?!" Pavel and Bael asked at the same time, Abiah nodded to the two while smiling."Yes! We can go home!" Bael said happily and hugged Pavel."But how did the curse disappear?" Pavel asked the holy woman."You know, it doesn't matter what happened and how the curse was lifted. The important thing is that we can go home and bring grandpa with us and then you will be king!" Abiah said happily. Gabriel looked at my direction. My eyebrows just raised and then frowned, Cynrad looked at me the same way."Ksara, did you hear that? We can go home and the curse is gone!" Pavel happily told me then came to me and hugged me. I smiled as he hugged me."You will be king." I said with a smile, he let go of the hug and looked at me with a smile."I don't know how or what happened to make the curse disappear but as Abiah said, it doesn't matter anymore, because the important thing is that the curse is gone." Pavel said while looking at me, I laughed."Get your things ready, tomorrow we will tra
"I will definitely eat meats and drink delicious drinks when I return to the palace!" Bael said happily as we walked in the middle of the forest back to Winsoul."As for me, I'll sleep and get a massage." Cynrad said between Pavel and Bael."As for me, I will introduce Ksara to my father and mother." Pavel said with a smile so I looked at him, Bael and Cynrad also looked at him."The king and queen know her, you don't need to introduce Ksara again." Bael said, Pavel shook his head."No, I'll introduce her as my date.""What?!" Bael and Abiah asked together. Cynrad looked at me and I raised my eyebrows."Courting? Pavel, do you like Ksara?" asked Lady Banal."Mm, I'm sure she heard me confess to her when the four of us drank, before I passed out I even heard her voice." He says. Gabriel and Abiah looked at me. I just walked quietly and did not participate in their conversation."It looks like Yuniko doesn't want you, another one Pavel. She's a Yuniko, you probably know that--""I don't
