Alan's point of view...The man before me was dressed like some royal man with an elegant suit and a stylish pair of shoes.No matter what he was it was confirmed that he was not a king, he didn't have the look that a king has, "Do I look like one...?" he asked chuckling, but even his chuckle gave a distinct vibe, he is next to the king.I am sure that he might be the king's brother or a reagent, but not the king.His eyes are filled with greed for the throne, and it wasn't giving me good vibes."I can't be a general, sir" I confirmed strolling away from there, I was fine becoming a slave but not to this man, I don't know why my instinct says that he is a man of power thirst and I never wanted to be with a man like this."I will pay you handsomely, that you would have never imagined, you will play in gold...!" he tried luring me, but with gold...!was that a luring offer for me?I walked away further without even turning back, everyone around me was glaring at me, with a confused look
Alan's point of view...When I got out to see from where that sound was coming, I couldn't find anyone before me but I saw some flashes of light, maybe the reflections of fire or some other things, I moved out to see up.As I guessed, some monsters were fighting among themselves.One bigger one which looked more like a human but with a pair of wings burnt, and was blue, as I don't have any knowledge about those monsters I don't know to which breed it belongs to.The other four little monsters were dark brown and black and look exactly like bigger versions of mosquitoes, but mosquitoes don't emit fire, and they were continuously emitting fire on that single monster.At first, I thought of sliding away from that fight but my itching and intuition forced me on helping the weaker one.I decided to help that blue color monster, as it was almost burnt, and if their attacks continue, it will die soon.I leaped over to them and stood before that blue color monster, those little ones started th
Alan's point of view...Every time I move forward not to get involved in any matter, I end up getting back to where I started getting involved unknowingly.I tried a lot to get far away from this village but see I am here in this mess again.I was standing at the door of that palace, talking to Doru and that Queen, Naina when that little boy fell on my hands.I was surprised to see he hid in a hidden chamber in the door, "There is a secret magical chamber in the door, the only safe place for him to hide" his mother revealed,I put him down, he was a cute little boy but was trembling in fear. I held his hand to assure him but he jerked me off and hid behind his mother taking glances at times.I can understand what he might be feeling right now, with his life in a total mess, how can he trust a stranger like me?"Please don't mind his behavior, Sir, he is frightened, and he doesn't usually get together with others" she reasoned, "I can understand..." I said strolling toward that boy,
Alan's point of view..."No...!" she sighed moving out, I followed her, she walked to the front door, and stood leaning towards one of the pillars."Do you really don't have any plan to get back what is yours?" I asked again, it is human nature that we tend to get what is ours, and the life she was leading was so troublesome. I was surprised because it was a hell life to live like that forever, She glared at me before speaking again, her eyes were questioning but her facial expressions were clear that she knows the answer already, what was that look supposed to be?"No one can help me, anyway...!" she let that out hanging her head down, "Why would you say that?" I was now curious about this, What does she mean by that?No one can help her...!Killing that man wasn't anything for me, in fact, even Doru can do that in seconds."Because those people I have to fight are my family...!" she let out with a sense of guilt in her words, "Family...! Zion's uncle?" I asked with my eyebrows r
Alan's point of view...As I saw that it was them who took Zion, I inquired about their whereabouts to find him.That old granny gave me a clear explanation about the eastern palace where Liam and his family live, whereas the man with her told me about their family members.The previous King's mother has two sons, and a daughter, one was the king, Noah, and the other one, Liam, whom I met that day. Being a king, Noah was married thrice though the Queen was only one and the others were considered as his side wives, Niana was not among them as her existence was kept a secret by the king.Liam, the youngest of the siblings was married to a princess of the country where his sister Eleena was married. He didn't have any offspring yet.Noah and Liam had been on bad terms from the moment Noah was declared the crown prince and when he became the king, Liam protested it with all his will.Eleven years before Noah was assassinated in a forest where he went hunting and was brutally injured by th
Author's point of view...Alan swirled his hands focusing on his stone power to use its magic to kill the huge monster before him which is ten times bigger than him, but before his hands shove to extract any kind of attack, a voice jolted him, "Master...!" he was startled hearing it, thinking if he heard it right, the voice repeated."Master it's me...! Doru...!" Alan looked around instantly to find the source of the voice coming but couldn't find him, "Doru, Are you invisible now?" he asked surprisingly, "Uhh...! Master I am in front of you" Alan jerked back and looked up at the monster in front of him, "Doru...! Are you in this monster?" that monster before him, shook his head vigorously to say yes, it was a little too much for him to believe, "But how? and where is Zion?" Alan was perplexed by just learning that Doru was actually talking from inside that monster whom Alan was about to attack."Master they trapped me with the beast's blood and I don't know about that little boy
Alan's point of view...Being a slave...!Wasn't that part of my exile?Ok...! All this time I had been perky in the name of being a slave or a beggar, I have been slacking my time all this while, why not try being on the harder side?Why not try being a slave for real?"Ok, I will be your slave, just give the antidote first" I was clear on what I said but she was surprised at my agreement, she might have guessed that I will refuse to accept this but to her surprise, I agreed.It wasn't a big deal for me though."Oh, I will give the antidote on one condition," she said, moving aside, her eyes were filled with resentment, maybe the condition that she mentioned will be hard to accept, "What condition?" I asked her straight, I was a little curious about it too."You have to fetch something for me" it looks so much easier than it is for sure, the smirk on her face gave me a description of the task she was about to give."What...?" I asked after giving it a brief thought, I don't have any
Alan's point of view...I took that book, map, and some poisons about which I know how to use and kept the rest back at that place.Now I was ready to start my journey through the dense forest passing through the outskirts of Verona, to reach the dead man's valley.It was night but as I heard the words of that man, I didn't want to waste a minute, not even to rest.I didn't take that pill as it was not needed and moved toward the forest. However, it didn't bother me, it was a dense one where in the dark it looked more dangerous.The trees here are so massive and tall, giving them a vicious look, though it is dark yet the moon was helping me to look on my path with its reflection.I strode all night, and it took me more than eight hours to cross that forest, I got many wild companions, but still, I was out avoiding them, because I never like to kill animals for no reason. The area I was in was still remote, there were nothing but huge mountains and rocky paths ahead of me.I was tire
