Sustaining the King's Life

COMPLETED. (WARNING: R18 on chapter 200+ onwards. This is a SLOW BURN ROMANCE. Read at your own risk.) ** On a secluded mountain situated upon a kingdom known as Feuersturm, resides a seemingly trifling cabin with an unlikely duo as its inhabitant—a witch, and her apprentice who presumably comes from a clan sought after by slave traders. Faustina is a sixteen-year-old girl who fled the slave market with the help of a sickly witch named Eula, who later on trained her as an apprentice for the span of seven years. Plagued with a mysterious disease for several years, Eula died despite the efforts Faustina had exerted to cure her; in her last breath, she left an odd request behind. "Sustain the king's life. This is your duty. Do not adhere to the prophecy." To which the odd plea shadowed a bizarre series of events, a consequential sentence; similar to that of a premonition. The same night the phrase was muttered, the chain of events followed: A warlock's intrusion to their home, with a peculiar yearning to resurrect Eula from the dead... and the king himself, asking for Faustina’s aid.

Rumors Confirmed

Orwell Lotheringwood was a well-known graduate of Magierstadt. He had aced the exams along with Lucas Feuerlon, managed to have his wind spells in The Book, and then conquer the land of Lothlorien. Orwell, who was known by everyone even among the streets, was seen with a girl.

"This never happened before."

"Is she her lover?"

"Then Orwell courted his best friend… er, rival's younger sister?"

Rumors had spread in the course of hours. After Orwell gave Faustina that 'good luck spell' he shortly headed out of the academy. But he didn't exit Magierstadt as sooner as he could expect. The professors that weren't judges for the contest then went to greet him.

"Orwell! We thought you're never coming back!"

"Oh, it's our famous Moscow—no, he's Lotheringwood now!"

"Did you change your mind and came here to be a professor?"

"Or perhaps, researcher?"
