While Old Reyes questions the mage servant, Cressida had gone to sit at the courtyard all alone. Some minutes later, Stefan came out to join her." I have only heard of Fendril, it's such an incredible infirmary. There are all sorts of medicinal herbs and poisonous ones too." Cressida said, looking steamly at Stefan."I am sure these eye drops will make your eye color faint. Lie low and live as Cressida, that's all I can do for now." Stefan seemed not to have gotten the hint, he took a sip of the drink Cressida had made and kept right there by her side. " You are wrong, I want you to be my lake Kindermiota. You said you risked your life many times for me, so do it again one more time."It appears that what Stefan drank was actually poison. He started feeling the effects after a few minutes of consuming the content of the cup."It may be pretty painful." She continued.The tea cup Stefan held fell to the ground as he struggled in pain." What did you put in there?" He asked, holding hi
"Wait, you can't just leave like that. What about this child? Petrova holding a little baby in his arms approaches Daniel Donovan who was up on the hills about to leave. "Think about what people will say about this child and Lady Isabel. They will say he is not your son and call him an illegitimate child." He continued."He will be raised by the Donovan family since my wife gave birth to him. I will send someone over after his mother's funeral." Daniel Donovan was downcasted." Are you abandoning this child? Is he not really your child?"Believe whatsoever you choose to believe." Daniel took his leave."If this child is only going to cause trouble, let us just end his life here and now." Petrova provokingly threw the little boy into the air, rushed for his sword and pushed out his magical strength towards him, but right before the sword and magic could get the child, Donovan had gotten hold of him and restricted the magic causing it to bounce."See? He is your son. A son you're w
Master Ramirez Lewis, sits tiredly in his chamber round his table while feeling his hands on the flame of the table fire with Petrova Theodore discussing what had just happened." Stefan has finally opened his gate of energy." He said downcasted."Yes, he was even willing to end his life, I could not just sit back and watch. I guess he knew that we would never just let him kill himself. He probably poisoned himself knowing he will get saved." Old Reyes said faintly, coughing out as well. His health was affected by the so much energy he had just extracted to save Stefan."Are you Okay?" Petrova said showing concern." Opening Stefan's gate of energy and healing him has probably caused me ten years worth of energy.""So you not only open his gate of energy, but you also have him extra energy." Petrova was shocked at his actions." What good will it be for an old man to keep his gate of energy locked up?. He was poisoned, so I gave him soon energy to speed up his recovery""Once Stefan r
It was still midnight when Stefan and Cressida got to Fendril Pandora. Cressida was laid on a bed in the room while Stefan kept watch over her.He went closer to her and placed his two fingers close to her nostrils. " Is she breathing?" He bent his head to her face to confirm her breath. Cressida opened her eyes immediately. " You're awake. You kept passing out, so I thought you might die." Not paying attention to his talk, Cressida carried herself up groaning in pain. "Gosh" Does it hurt a lot? He asked." I think I broke my bones." She said when she finally sat up." They said you were fine."" Really?" " Then why does it hurt so much? What a useless body."" Hey, why did you say you poisoned me? If you pretended like you did not know anything, they would not have tortured you.""I had to make them believe that you were dying. Otherwise, they would not have opened your gate of energy. They just would have made an antidote."" So you really did risk your life."" I thought I mig
" Yes, the king and I have switched bodies."" Then where is his majesty ?" Feddrick was already frightened." His soul is inside my body, I must get back my body. But I cannot seem to retrieve my energy. I need you to help me." He said almost losing his breath due to his weak body." Master. I do not know how the Wizardry Of Souls works."" Go to Greham's Secret Room and bring me the Soul Ejector. I will teach you how the Wizardry Of Souls works". Master Daniel Donovan said. Feddrick narrates how he got to understand that some Soul Shifters lose their energy when they shift their souls to a weak body to his chief executor." He could not retrieve his energy due to the weak body he was in, which was why I was given the chance. I was lucky." Feddrick said within him to no one's hearing leaving a Stony smile as usual." Burn the bodies". He ordered the bodies of which the soul shifters had sapped life from to be burnt to ashes. While Feddrick's chief executor was on the field
Cressida could not believe her eyes, she looked at him widely as though to hit him back. While they both stood up to put on their shoes, Cressida threw the wooden tool at Stefan's back. " What was that for? Stefan, who paused what he was doing, asked. " You're not agile,pick it up." She gestured with her eyes. "What are you doing?" While he bends to pick up the tool, she does the same. She equally carried her own tool. " Let me see how good my pupil is so I can forget how miserable I feel." " What?" Cressida makes the first martial flip of her tool and begins to engage Stefan in a fight. Stefan tried his best to dodge her tools in an amateur way until finally hit him on his buttocks. He felt the pains of the wood. " Why did you hit me?" He said, rubbing his hands on his button. Cressida already dropped her tool afterwards. "You have no swordsmanship. Then show me how you fight." Stefan went closer to her again and began to throw punches. She fought back, hitting him on the
Maidservant Kim walks into Stefan coming into the living room while she has his food served in a tray. For" Young Master, this is wild ginseng tea, drink up." She stretched the tray to his face. " Wild ginseng?" " I will drink it after I return. Leave it." He said smiling." Are you trying to give it to Cressida again?" Kim asked, frowning."It's cold outside, she deserves something warm and nice. Why did you make her sweep the yard out in the cold?"." Wait!" Kim dropped the tray of food on the table." That maid is getting treated for free. So I asked her to do her part." Kim couldn't believe he often gives his food to Cressida." Why does it have to be her? Could you not do it yourself?"Maidservant Kim blinked her eyes twice to be certain he made that statement." I have to heat up your medicine, prepare your food and also take care of you."" Cressida will take care of me, you do not need to worry."" Ooh, I see. So you only care about Cressida. Since I am now considered usele
Petrova was kin to what he had earlier said about retrieving Stefan's energy once he got back on his feet. While he and Old Reyes sat on the dining table to have their meal, he brought up the issue again." Stefan seems to have recovered now, it is time you retrieve the Torrent of energy you gave him. If it surges the wrong way, it could make him go mad." Old Reyes swallows the meals left in his mouth and pays attention to what he was thinking, as though not to agree with what he was saying he itches his beards for a while before saying a word." Stefan will not be able to use it. His gate of energy is just open, there is nothing he can actually do. You're just worried for nothing. He probably does not even know that there is something great inside him." He said as Petrova rested back on his chair.Meanwhile Cressida and Stefan had left the house and gone into the Rosey garden of Fendril still talking about the Torrent of energy embedded in him. " Let us steal Master Ramirez torrent
