166 Chapter 166: Siege Works

Sienna requested for a boiled poultice to be used in healing Urchin. Sienna also saw how it was back then but not from Urchin's gift of trance but of the prophecy and story mentioned by her ancestors.

"In our place before, they used to mention that the 1917 famine brought out the animalistic nature of a human. It was when most people were affected by hunger and mental block. The military before were harsh and rough that they wanted to take this place as an territory. The result was most of the people who were abused became a door way for the fallen angels to posses and used as their vessels. The worst senario was, it got global where those who are used as host by them became numb from the pain even when their bodies are being bended and broken. It was like a zombie march but this people are not dead but alive. Maybe the demon Was has a certain connection with the woman who was used and freely adopted by the demon for a long time which is plenty."

Ophir tried to recall the gossip and rumours they encountered before upon Hudah's disappearance.

"Well most rumours before were, she was trying to run away from home.. the explanation behind it was unknown. For some reason before, I frequently bump with here since we were eight and would visit her every 9th of the month as she requested. There were times that she was sad and weakened but she never spoke about it back then, most of her lines every time we met was..."

"This fruits get rotten when an insect touch it."

"The sky is beautiful but is transparent."

"Can you bet how true the stories your mother brings everytime?"

"I often heared a whisper that is painted in black whenever I lay flat on my bed."

Ophir enumerated as he pressed his lashes together and added.

"Which I think was mature back then. I sometimes doubt how she smiles and laugh whenever we played before but... I kept silent about it... wait.. i remember a line she said before our last meeting."

Ophir surprisedly announced.

"She said that will I still like her or spend time with her even if she would start acting out of herself nor even if she is not as pure as I see her.. and I answered a yes..."

Sienna nod her head but got interrupted when Urchin started groaning and yelling frantically. When Mem reported the current situation. Cyrus wrapped up his session and left the court. He is currently having a court meeting with the nobles and royals of El Oathniel. Most of the nobles supported and undertood his exit and resume their works after wishing his situation to be well. When Cyrus arrived at Urchin's bed. He saw a mess where Lehi and Lila are being glued on the wall. Hexel and Nevi got knocked out on the ground. Ophir and Ain with Kiel are in an instance to protect Sienna. Cyrus almost got choked with his own breath when he saw Ucrhin's face and state. His grandson was like a frog seating on the cieling.

Urchin looked like a baby lion who is roaring and glaring at them. He looked cute in Cyrus' perspective but he needs to be in serious mode. Natalina and Cyprus with Evi came after. Cyrus glared at Cyprus who instantly understand what he meant and yanked his wife back the hall.

"Wait! We need to help them." Natalina argued but Cyprus gave her a stern look which always made her behave.

"We need to stay with our kids and protect them. If that Was can posses Urchin how much more the boys?"

The two march back inside the nursery room with Evi and found Mem circling all around the crib like a mother bear protecting it's babies.

"See, this man will go crazy." Cyprus pointed.

Resh enter the room yawning and said.

"Where is that dare devil?"

Cyprus grab him by the collar and threw him outside their rooms door and firmly said.

"So relax eh... It's Urchin's case."

Cyrus defended Kiel who recieved a wound from Urchin since he can't hit his own son. Cyrus summoned his rod and warned.

"Get out of his body or you will regret it."

Urchin giggled and displayed a puppy eye as he plead.

"My sweet grandfather won't hit me right? I don't want to be spank by your loving hands..."

Cyrus can see the heart and flowers on the background floating as his grandson display such cute gesture. Ophir, Cyrus and Kiel nodded at him. Ain tried to shake off the cuteness overload coming from Ucrhin but got annihilated.

Lila opened a portal at Urchin's side and knocked him unconscious and scolded the men.

"Don't get carried away or you'll end up being caught by your own snare."

By the time Lila tucked Urchin on the bed. Resh arrived with his defensive stance.

"Your always useless you know." Cyrus commented at Resh who leaned on the wall.

"That can't be help Cyprus gave me a lengthy lecture when I entered the wrong room." Resh excused.

"Stop yapping and do your task." Cyrus sternly spoke that made the tale bearers shivered.

"That won't work on me Cyrus. I have seen that ugly smug of yours a thousand times." Resh teased.

When Resh noticed Sienna in the room. Resh instantly kneel in front of her and planted a peck on her hand and introduced himself.

"My....my.. what is a lovely lady doing inside this chaotic palace with stern and ugly faces. Especially our King."

Sienna got flustered and was losed with words.

Nevi and Ain eyed Hexel who did not even reacted from the view. Lehi and Lila pointed there weapon at Resh's neck.

"What a disgraceful manner, hands off."

Lehi commanded.

"You reacted the same way on us old man." Lila said as if her smile does not display her sarcasm.

"She is my wife useless old man. Get up or I'll make it that you will kneel forever."

Hexel warned without pointing his sword because his glare is enough to chop Resh's head off from his neck.
