“Zulniex’s troops are not ordinary troops. The power of the Vain Dominion won’t be able to deal with it.”Sid Fortaine spoke while looking at Greraver. Amidst the darkness, Greraver’s body glowed golden. The light was centered on the golden mark on the back of his neck. He looked brave, dignified, and strong.“Only with your inner power you can defeat Zulniex. You can allow the Wendigo within you to merge forever and become the king of all the wendigos in the world. You will control all these monsters on your hands. They will follow your orders and help your troops win the battle.”Greraver looked down. Thousands of Wendigos fell silent with their mouths gaping and watering. It was the same creature form that had been controlling Greraver all along. He was unafraid to look at them, even though they all looked disgusting.“Other options?” asked Greraver.“You can leave the rock you stand on. Then the curse and the wendigo soul will leave your body. You don’t need to reach second or thi
“I will accompany you!” said Silvia.“You mean by becoming a fire phoenix?” asked Dielh.“I can become an ordinary phoenix too, Dielh. Flames appeared when I fought. Other than that, I’m still an ordinary phoenix.”“That’s not an excellent idea, Silvia. The king of the Heaven will see you, if you stay in the sky for too long. They will hunt you.”“If Greraver can make the sacrifice of a lifetime, then for once I would like to sacrifice myself for your kingdom. For the sake of the people who want to live in peace. I’m not making an offer. Come on! We must leave quickly.”Then Silvia stepped towards the exit. Dielh and Greraver exchanged glances. The two nodded in unison and followed Silvia’s lead. So did Sid Fortaine.Arriving outside the cave, Silvia transformed herself into a Phoenix. It looked different from the fire phoenix they had ever seen. This time Silvia became a phoenix with excellent rainbow colors.She bent down to allow Greraver, Dielh, and Sid Fortaine to climb onto her
Two body was on the floor, their heads drooped and eyes wide. Blood was flowing from the gaping wounds on their bodies. A view that made Greraver feel very nauseous. Hundreds of worms like wriggle in his stomach. He turned his face to look away. He didn’t want to see the two bodies. Unfortunately, his heart beat faster the more he tried to ignore it. Nausea mixed with hunger took over his mind. Greraver’s body turned hot. His skin slowly turned red, it cut his breath off, and sweat poured heavily. He closed his eyes, trying against his own will. A minute later, things got tense. Greraver roared! His voice echoed, sounding hoarse, a long howl, and filled with agony. The Greraver’s body curved back. He growled in pain while simultaneously venting anger. His screams from the top of the tower echoed, filling the castle. Greraver’s roar was heard outside the palace. Frightened gripped the guards and maids. The people working inside the palace shuddered in horror at the sound. They knew
It was dark when a pair of Dielh’s brown eyes scanned behind a large tree. He watched the movements of every guard in front of the tower of the Vain Dominion Royal Palace door. At least four guards were there. Two were standing and looking in all directions. The other two were walking around to ensure safety.That night the air was cold and gripping for Dielh. He was on a great mission to bring his best friend out of suffering. On the other side, he was also committing a crime for violating the rules of King Zulniex.King Zulniex gave a tight guard to the palace tower. He made sure that Prince Greraver had no chance of getting out. The tower doors were always locked. On each floor leading to the top of the Prince’s room, they installed a steel-glazed door. Only Dielh, King Zulniex, and General Vigolous could enter the place.Dielh came out of the darkness and walked closer to the guard at the tower door while dragging a dead body. He tried to remain calm, even though his heart almost
The monster had no eyeballs, but Dielh could feel that the Wendigo’s eyes were looking at him. The smell of fresh blood from Dielh’s wounds stimulated the Wendigo to emerge and dominate Greraver’s body. Dielh’s body trembled with fear. His face was as white as cotton. He realized now they were in the jungle. Anything happened. There was no one there but the two of them. They were not in the palace Castle, and this was the wild. He must protect himself from the Wendigo in front of him without hurting Greraver. “Gre! I haven’t showered yet, ok! My smell is rotten, and my flesh tastes bitter because I often drink potions. You remember that, right?” Dielh raised his hand. He tried to talk to Greraver even though he knew it was useless. Dielh wasn’t sure that the Wendigo before him could hear. The Wendigo’s skull did not show that it had ears. “Grrrrrrrrrrr...” the Wendigo growled and slowly approached Dielh. Death seemed closer in front of him. Every step of Wendigo became a threat to
Greraver needed more focus. Someone pulled him towards a narrow alley. His eyes turned dark, and his face, which turned red, returned to normal color. Greraver could not smell the smell of meat from where he stood now.“Don’t make a mess here. People in the market could have killed you,” said the man who pulled Greraver.The man whispered. They were in a crowded market. Sellers were shouting offers, and buyers were busy talking to each other. Even if that man didn’t whisper, no one would hear the man’s words.Greraver felt surprised and gazed at the man. How dare he pull his hand in such a rude manner! His forehead wrinkled, and his face was tense. He tried to remember if he knew the man in front of him.“Who are you?” he asked.“I’ve seen it all, and I know who you are. If the monster shows up now. You’re gonna kill many people. Or even you get killed.”Greraver’s brows coalesced at the man’s words. He thought that this man knew a lot about him. But how was it possible? This was the
“How do you know everything?” Greraver needs more patience. From then on, the man did not answer his question at all.The man stood up and headed for a closet in the room. He opened the door and revealed a neatly lined row of Swords. He picked up a sword and closed the cabinet door.Then the old man sat down in front of Greraver and Dielh. He put the sword on the table. Judging by the color, they made the sword of gold. They carve the sword’s hilt in the shape of a wolf’s head. It was luster indicated that they preserved the sword well.“I make this sword of one pair. One for the King of the Vain Dominion Kingdom and the other for the Crown Prince of that Kingdom. The king himself ordered this sword for you. I made this sword twenty-one years ago when your mother, Queen Venes, was rumored to be pregnant.”Greraver’s eyes did not blink looking at the sword. It filled his heart with happiness. It turned out that his father had prepared him to become crown prince. Even when they had just
The food on the table was so strong that it smelled of the four people sitting around it. They examined the food on a serving plate and copper with bare eyes. The hungry stomach and the delicious dishes Silvia had just served did not interest them in eating immediately.“Contemplating the problem does not make the problem solved. We’ll figure out how to deal with it.” The older man opened the silence at the dining table.Greraver, Dielh and Silvia simultaneously looked at the man.“What’s your name?” asked Greraver. He just remembered that they had not yet known each other.The man put his hands on his chest and slightly lowered his head, full of honour to Greraver.“I am the Teraus. I was a designer and a weapon maker in the Vain Dominion Kingdom. When the Vain Dominion Kingdom was in the hands of King Destian. The vain Dominion Kingdom was the most modern kingdom on the European continent. I am always innovating and designing new weapons of war for the brave warrior.” Teraus said wi
