Liam woke up the next morning to see Brina sitting next to him on the bed while she kept her eyes on him, smiling pleasantly. “Good morning, Emrys. I am sure you had a good rest.”“I had the weirdest dream ever.” Liam groaned loudly, stretching his arms while he yawned loudly, causing Brina to lean backward, looking at him with a smirk on her face. “Tell me about this dream of yours, Emrys. Did you see anyone?” Brina asked while Liam uncovered himself with the duvet, and climbed down the bed while he struggled to keep his eyes open. “What are you doing here so early, Brina? Don’t you have anything to do in the infinite forest?”“Something like what?” Brina asked at once, looking at Liam who cleared his throat before giving her a response. “I don’t know! Maybe you can take care of the creatures there, tend to the ones who are sick, and even help them build whatever has been destroyed.” Liam yawned again, but not as loud as he did earlier while Brina chuckled softly before she
Liam stared at the book in his hands for a few seconds, and when he eventually resolved to follow his instincts, he closed his eyes and let out a heavy sigh before following the direction of the sensation that engulfed him a few seconds later. “Go on, Emrys. Let the book show you how to unlock it, look out for the location of the key.” Brina said calmly, smiling while she continued staring at Liam who had a neutral expression on his face until after a few seconds when a smile appeared on his face. Brina chuckled instantly the moment she saw the look on his face, nodding with so much satisfaction. “I think I've got it, Brina!” Liam said excitedly as soon as he opened his eyes just before he looked at the book closely, pushing it upward to his face. “I am sure you do, Emrys. Well-done.” Brina chuckled again, looking at Liam who sighed heavily just before taking another glance at the book which he dropped back on the bed. “What now?” He said to Brina the moment he stood erect,
Rebecca didn’t seem happy to see the Butler, but even though she showed it on her face, the middle -aged man couldn’t care less as he didn’t even take note of the look on her face while he concentrated on Liam who turned to look at him as soon as he heard his voice. “Hello, Alfred. I had a wonderful night. What about you?”“I did too, thank you, Lord Emrys.” Alfred nodded with a smile on his face just before he stole a quick glance at Rebecca whom he smirked at. “Miss West? I see that you took the liberty to make breakfast for Lord Emrys. I didn’t know it was also part of your job description to be his chef.” Rebecca was speechless at that moment, she tried to look at the Butler, but the expression she saw on his face was enough to make her withdraw her gaze at once. Left with no choice, she turned to look at Liam who was speechless, expecting him to say something, but it seemed like he was in support of whatever the butler was doing. “I will just take this back to the kitc
Andy realized that he didn’t have any other choice but to do as Liam instructed. He turned on the ignition of the car and drove out of the premises at an increasing speed. As he drove to the familiar neighborhood, Andy looked around, nervous about the nature of his neighborhood. “We are here, Lord Emrys,” Andy announced as soon as he got to the exact location Liam spoke about while he turned around to look at him without turning off the ignition of the car. “Already?” Liam said calmly, looking through the windows of the car until he was able to see the tavern located by the right corner of the street. Andy was surprised that Liam didn’t know where he was going, he looked at him for a few seconds before he nodded in response. “Alright. You wait right here, I will be back as soon as I can.” Liam grabbed the handle of the door at once, opened the door, and walked out before he slammed the door instantly. “Do you want me to come with you, Lord Emrys? You could need me.” Andy a
Liam continued to stare at the beautiful lady for a while, unable to resist the urge to admire her. Everything about her made him want to know more about her, her smile, great beauty, and especially her good sense of humor. “It’s really nice to meet you, Maya. I wonder what a pretty girl like you is doing in a place like this.” Liam looked around the tavern, expressing his displeasure. “Well, not everyone is opportune to come from a rich family like you. I am sure you have someone who cooks for you.” Maya retorted at once, cleaning the inside of one of the glasses with the white napkin she grabbed from the counter below her. “And you can tell this by merely looking at me?” Lim asked with a voice a little above a whisper, looking at Maya who slowly lifted her face from the glass she was carefully holding onto, and nodded in response.“Am I wrong? Don’t you have someone who cooks for you?” Maya asked confidently, but Liam was unable to give her a response at once. He chuckled sof
Surprisingly, and as opposed to what Maya thought, Liam was very calm even when Mr. Gary moved the dagger close to his face. Liam didn’t bother to flinch even though he was wary of the man with a golden tooth. “Who are you?” Mr. Gary was forced to ask when he sensed the aura that was emitting from Liam who stood his ground, resisting every form of intimidation from him.“My name is Emrys, Emrys Perkins,” Liam said with a low tone while his hands remained in the air. “Emrys?” Mr. Gary said with a whisper, looking at Liam while he tried to see if his face was going to be familiar just like his name. “Yes, Mr. Gary. My name is Emrys, and I believe that you have something that I desperately need.” Liam said with a nod, and then he waited for a few seconds just to be sure the middle-aged man was not going to attack before he lowered his hands and sighed heavily. “I knew it! I knew that the prophecies were true! I knew that you were going to come someday! You don’t know how long I
Mr. Gary waited for a few seconds after Liam asked him the question about the prophecy. From the look on his face, it was obvious that he had a lot to say, but he was looking for the best way to say it. He sighed heavily, and then he walked toward a corner of the storeroom where he stood, waiting for Liam who joined him at once. “My family belongs to a line of Druids, a group of ancient teachers, magicians, and priests who believe in the Divine. We have existed for centuries, and have lived discreetly on Earth out of the knowledge of ordinary Humans who are not gifted just like myself.” Liam couldn’t help but listen attentively to everything the middle-aged man was saying. At that moment, he realized that there were many other things that he didn’t know about about, and his curiosity lingered. Mr. Gary paused for a few seconds, and when he was certain that the young man standing in front of him was really paying attention, he cleared his throat and continued. “Even before th
Andy drove the car back to the castle, and as soon as he parked in front of the huge mansion, Liam alighted from the car, and walked into the building after putting the black box into his pocket in order to avoid any form of inquisition. As he ascended the stairs, the words he heard from Mr. Gary kept on resounding in his ears, and he tried to figure out what he meant by a familiar enemy. “Is Lord Darius related to me in any way?” He whispered only to his hearing, and when he was done with the last step of the staircase, he stood still, staring at space while he continued going through the ideas that crept into his mind.He had almost forgotten that he was meant to do something when he quickly snapped out of his long thought, and sighed heavily. “Those were really strange words.” He said just before he continued walking to his chambers with slow but steady steps. The moment he shut the door behind him, he walked to the cabinet beside his bed, and then pulled out the drawer.
