A young man was walking aimlessly inside a sensed forest. The forest was surrounded by mountains, a cave, and a large sea. All he had on him was his rugged clothes, his helmet, and a sword that showed him as a warrior, then his hunting bag where he kept the bush animals he killed. He was exiled from his hometown for a crime he did not commit. He was accused of murder and he was dragged out as a commoner, despite all the wars he had conquered for the town.One fateful night after spending a few moons in the forest, a giant troll came to visit him. He stayed beside him for some minutes, then he tapped him. The young man was startled, but he wasn't scared. He immediately brought out his sword, ready to slay anyone or any animal that interrupted his sleep, but he was shocked when he saw a giant troll standing over him. The troll smiled at him, but he was proud that he was a brave man." I can see that you are always alert, and I'm impressed with your bravery, but you can't arm me, young m
" Good morning your highness", Joy greeted Lucas as he was rushing into the company. He woke up late due to the stress he faced at the Museum. After reading the Armstrong family history book, he fell asleep immediately. He already took a day off, so he couldn't risk taking another. He didn't want to present himself as someone unserious before his superiors and colleagues. That's the reason why he forced himself to work." Can you please stop calling me that at the workplace? That even sounds absurd, because I'm not the king yet", Lucas cautioned Joy silently. Joy smiled, "You don't need to be crowned as the king before I respect you. You are destined to be king and it will surely come to pass" she explained her intentions." Okay fine, but don't do that at the workplace please", Lucas pleaded, demonstrating by folding his two hands." I have heard. I will try to adjust from now on. You look exhausted, and I don't think you will perform well at work today. Why didn't you take some res
A beautiful middle-aged woman was standing at the entrance to his house. She was seen studying the surroundings, but she had focus. She didn't smile when she saw Lucas approaching her way, but she wasn't angry either. The reaction on her face was just neutral. Lucas did not recognize her immediately until he moved closer to her. He was shocked and he took some steps back to take precautions." Do not tell me you are scared of my appearance because fear does not befit a warlock. You must never show fear no matter the situation you find yourself in. Hi, Lucas", the woman said to a startled Lucas. He wasn't sure of his response, but he replied to her." Hi Marie, this is a surprise visit"" Is it? Because I heard you yawning to meet me. And you were very sure I would visit you, so how is this a surprise?"Marie replied calculatively." I know you will visit me, but I wasn't expecting a physical appearance. I never expect you to dress in modern attires also", he replied." A bush rat will
The day was going smoothly for Lucas. He had gotten the whims of the practicals given to him by the research assistant. He was a brilliant man who absorbed things easily. His intelligence quotient was very high, so he had no problem assimilating faster. He was loved by his superiors and his colleagues, except one for who decided to make him an enemy for unknown reasons n. Lucas was not bothered about all the tactics made by Albert to get close to him, he tried all his possible means to avoid the man like a plague.Despite the peaceful scenery, Lucas did not expect Frederick to visit him in his place of work. He had forgotten about him, he had placed the incident that happened behind him and faced his life. He didn't know Fredrick still held against him.Frederick on the other hand had not forgotten the guy that managed to get Lilly's attention within a few days, the attention he had longed to have for several years. He thought it would be a big slap on him if a strange guy took him a
As soon as Lucas came out of the Laboratory, Joy wanted to mention his name but she was asked to keep quiet. It was obvious she wasn't aware of the incident. Had it been she was aware, she wouldn't have approached Lucas publicly. Lucas signaled to her, for them to meet outside the company's premises.He went to take his car from the garage, then he drove out to meet Joy by the roadside. Joy couldn't wait as she bombarded him with questions when she entered his car." What happened, Lucas? Why are you being cautious all of a sudden? Did the guy with the dark aura attack you?"" No sorcerer attacked me, but a fool that thought I was in a sexual relationship with you" Lucas answered her. He was annoyed about Frederick's immature character.Joy started laughing seriously until she started coughing. " You must be joking, right?", She asked, but when she saw the serious look on Lucas' face, her smile wiped off her face." You mean someone tagged us as a couple?""Hmmm", Lucas murmured." Th
Lucas made sure he woke up early and left his house before Lilly. He did this to avoid any questions about his previous breakdown. He was not ready to face her, because he knew she would pester him to talk about what caused the anxiety. He went straight into the Laboratory when he got to the company. He decided he needed to discuss with joy about his terrible dream, but their meetings would be in secret. The ladies in the office welcomed him cheerfully and he was surprised with their reactions. He thought the accusations led against him by Frederick would deter them from him, but it made the number of ladies who were interested in him increase.The truth was that there was never a young man who had the effrontery to confront Frederick the way Lucas did. All his opponents always fear his rich background and his wicked mother, so they dare not confront him.Lucas waved at them to relate freely with them, but he wasn't happy. He worked very hard to forget the dreams, but the lingering e
On his way back to the office, Lucas put a call through to Joy to inform her about the dream he had." We need to meet after work today, I had a terrible dream last night", Lucas went directly to the purpose of the call he made without any pleasantries." Okay then. Where should we meet?", Joy replied over the phone." I will meet you in front of your house. I need to go now, bye", he ended the call as he was approaching the company. *************************" That dream was sending you an important message, sire", Joy stated the obvious, after Lucas narrated the dream to her." I thought we had an agreement that you would stop calling me 'sire' in a public place", Lucas warned." You asked me not to call you that in the office. We are outside my house, and nobody is eavesdropping, I'm very sure of that. Let's leave that aside and talk about what exactly brought you here" Lilly was not ready to waste any time either." You sent the dream was sending an important mes
Lucas had been practicing his healing training nonstop all over the weeks. He had improved in studying sorcery and healing practices. He took Joy and Dave's words seriously. He had also mastered how to manage and control his anger over time. Although he had not gotten angered recently, he studied how the troll trained him to manage it.He had been taking his research internship seriously and he had learnt a lot. He excelled in all the exercises given to them by the company's main researchers, and this made all his female colleagues love him more. They want to associate with a brilliant good-looking man. " I'm proud of you, Lucas. You have learned many things within a short period. I didn't expect that you would know how to formulate and mix some drugs, you surprised me, keep it up." Bobby had said this to Lucas in one of their practicals.His smartness had brought envy within his male colleagues, and this had made someone regard him as an enemy.Albert; who had a dark aura surroundin
