Behind The Terrifying Darkness

A fishy smell wafted around the place. Men, old people, even innocent children lay motionless with cold body temperatures. A man stood indifferently around where the bodies were scattered. Holding the sword that was still stained with blood, he headed for a place that was not affected by a single drop of red stain that adorned his surroundings. He knelt down to caress the pale cheek of a girl hidden behind the shield he had created. He took off the fluttering black cloth he was wearing and gently draped the robe that had been stained with warmth over the girl. "You see." "They died because of you." "You should never have run away from me." "Let's go back Rosalia." whispered the young man softly among the gusts of the night wind that choked.

Back to The Palace

Stefan was still hugging Rose when he reached the Palace of the Sun. The current resting place of the king. He personally escorted the girl in his arms to the room reserved for the fairy.

"Tomorrow someone will pick you up. Rest for now." Stefan told Rose.

"Very well, Your Majesty." the girl answered politely as usual.

After Steven left Rose, he headed straight for the parliament room. The place where he ruled over his servants in the Dragon Race.

"Did anything happen while I was away?" the viceroy asked as he sat down on the throne.

"Nothing in particular happened, Your Majesty." Theodhore answered the ruler.

"There isn't any?" Stefan spoke sarcastically.

"Then what happened to the Vansizger Family?"

"Why didn't I know that they controlled half of my territory. Do they want to succeed me as king?" Stefan spoke sharply.

The generals and ministers fell silent as the king issued a heavy pressure. Unlike knights who were clueless and their hearts exploded from the pressure exerted by the man, the people in the room instantly concentrated all their strength on protecting their hearts.

"I'm sorry we didn't notice it right away Your Majesty. This must be a sign of rebellion." a middle-aged general expressed his opinion.

"I don't think General Ed is right, Your Majesty. The Vansizgers are like Dragon Race Elders. Of course their name has been heard throughout the Dragon Race. It's like they're already part of this kingdom itself, Your Majesty. That doesn't mean they are plotting a rebellion." Teodhor refuted General Ed's opinion.

"Then you mean that they naturally have power comparable to His Majesty?" a minister spoke against Teodhore.

"Minister Yeraz misunderstood what I meant. We should ask the head of the Vansizger family about this claim before deciding on our next course of action." Teodhore replied with his fox smile.

"Where is the thief screaming that he is a thief. General Teodhore attaches great importance to the Vansizger Family. Do you have some kind of special relationship with them." said General Ed dissatisfied.

"Enough." Stefan's cold voice stopped their argument.

"Ed, immediately prepare the troops. Tonight we will depart for the Vansizger Mansion. I will lead the troops to eliminate their bloodline." Stefan gave his decision.

"Mrs. Zara. I want you to bring my guest tomorrow for follow the empress selection. Stevan spoke to the middle-aged woman who had been standing quietly in the corner of the room.

"I understand Your Majesty." Mrs. Zara bowed respectfully to Stefan.

"You can go." Stefan chased them all away.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." the dragon race subordinates bowed their bodies towards the king before one by one they left the luxurious room.

A white-haired man rushed to his residence after the parliamentary meeting ended.

The king will exterminate The Vansizger Family.

Teodhor wrote on a magic slip of paper that could turn into a kind of small diamond. He immediately attached the small diamond to the body of one of his white snakes and ordered the snake to meet the Head of the Vansizger Family.

He had been in coalition with the Vansizger Family for years. If they were to be completely annihilated, he would be at a great loss.

***

Rose took a warm bath after entering her room. Relax her body that has recently suffered frequent injuries. The blue nightgown had been prepared as soon as she finished cleaning herself.

She looked at her reflection which was dominated by blue. Her eyeballs, gown and birthmark are all blue. After she returned, her room looked as clean and tidy as when she left.

However, one thing has changed. It is a blue color. The blankets, dresses and even the accessories she had all turned blue.

"Did the young king suddenly become obsessed with the color blue?" Rose asked herself.

"That guy is very strange. He looked terrible at first, but now I feel that he is not as bad as I thought."

"I also feel quite happy and satisfied when I get protection from him." the fairy was still talking to herself.

"Hn.. Why am I wasting time thinking about him." Rose snorted before laying down on her soft bed. Tried to sleep early because the guy told her to get ready tomorrow morning.

Knock.. tock.. tok..

On a sunny morning, there was a light knock from behind the fairy princess' door.

Rose immediately opened the bedroom door as soon as she heard the voice.

"Good morning, Princess. I'm Zara Delovaria."

"His Majesty ordered me to take the princess somewhere." a middle-aged woman who seemed to have high etiquette greeted Rose.

"Good morning Mrs. Zara. I am Rosalia Devonia Razak. You can call me Rose." Rose slightly bent her knees as she introduced herself.

"Please follow me, Miss Rose." Madam Zara walks in front of Rose with perfect etiquette.

Rose followed the middle-aged woman quietly. She thought that the king would pick her up and had prepared earlier than usual. Knowing that it wasn't the man who had come, she felt a little disappointed.

"No. Realized Rose. You're just a prisoner. Just because he saved you so many times and got a quick hug from that guy, you shouldn't have had such high hopes." Rose gave herself a slap in the heart.

"We've arrived Miss Rose." Madame Zara stopped at a large castle that had a path of multicolored precious stones.

"Welcome Mrs. Zara." there were two women who greeted the madam.

"Starting today, we have a new member. Miss Rose was chosen directly by the king. I hope you two get along well." Mrs. Zara spoke to the two women who greeted her.

"You don't have to worry Mrs. Zara." a silver-haired girl answered with a softle smile.

"Miss Rose, let me introduce the two of them. The one with silver hair is Miss Leona Vanjicke. She is General Teodhore's sister."

"While the one with black hair is Eliza Kromselia. She is the only daughter of General Ed. One of His Majesty's confidants." Madam Zara gave a brief introduction to Rose.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Rosalia Devonio Razak." Rose gave a polite smile as she introduced herself.

"Let's go in." Madam Zara took the lead which the three young ladies immediately followed behind her.

Rose frowned slightly as she walked. She felt strange when she had to meet two beautiful women who still looked young and charming.

"This is not the selection of a candidate for the king's companion, right." the fairy girl couldn't believe what was going through her mind.

"I hope it's not what I think it is." Rose bit her lower lip trying to avoid the reality that was presented in front of her eyes.
