Chapter 31: Betrayal (part 2)

An ethereal voice spoke at my ears, she said: "little girl, do you have lost your star, let me be your one. With the power of your human harmony and the fire of your soul, you'll never be a weak. Bring me with you, and let me be your sword. From the death, the blue fire of the justice enlighten us".

And then, a bundle of light had covered my whole body.

A sensation of rebirth.

From the dead princess of the kingdom, I was reborn for be the knight of the justice.

"With my power you will be always the light in the darkness" She said.

Angeline was killed by the injustice, but from the injustice a new dancing sun was born for make everyone dance, named Zeranix.

From the infinite ocean, I've totally reborn" Zeranix stopped to talk, and stared Seraf's eyes.

- "Did you have been reborn from the ocean.." Seraf muttered.

- "Seraf?".

- "The other people life.. Their life has been created by the creation of this land.. But your life isn't like the others" Seraf stared at Zeranix.

The two has their eyes opened, no one blinked in those seconds.

- "Aqualirisium has choose you for being your vessel" Seraf coldly said.

- "The abyssal goddess has choose me? Why?-" Someone abruptly interrupted their discussion.

- "Who are you! Raise your hands!" Some royal guards brought closer to them.

Seraf closed his eyes, a strange sensation make his mind totally void and tired.

Before that Seraf lost his consciousness, he heard some words: "Seraf, Seraf!".

Seraf fell on the ground.

- "I know you. Your presence in this land is dangerous.

I've heard about you from only one person.

He said to me many things, things that no one know.

You here are just a prisoner, and no one can escape in the kingdom of Aquaris".

The crimson eyes of the last drop opened, in front of them, there are bars created with magic.

A cage created with dark magic.

- "Where I am..?" Seraf muttered.

The voice leaved him alone in the cage.

His eyes looked around.

The cage was in front of a noble throne, full of gold and precious gems.

- "A throne.."

Seraf haven't any ideas where he was.

- "Where's the king..?" A crown was lying on the throne.

Seraf lost his consciousness again, but this time he woke up in another cage, that seemed normal.

- "I'm feeling weak.. The weakness fills my whole body" He said, lying on the cold floor.

- "Look at you, you're just a weak" An enormous man said while he looked at Seraf.

The man was tall and muscled, he was wearing a royal armor.

- "The king Ezeden said to me to catch you, and I've never disappoint him. You're in the castle's prisons, located underground".

- "Why he wants me?" Seraf asked.

- "I can't say anything about it. When the execution will start, you will know".

- "The execution?" Seraf said.

- "The public execution. An activity that the king loves".

In Aquaris, when the old king was alive and command the kingdom, he created a system of execution, based on the psyche of the victim.

The public execution doesn't happen often in the kingdom, as it is a very rare event.

The victim kneel in front of the entire people, and the king himself crowns him, and quickly the victim finds himself inside an unimaginable psychophysical pain.

The man smirked at Seraf.

- "When is the execution?" Seraf asked.

- "I can't tell you. Maybe tomorrow; maybe the next month, maybe the next year.

You'll be here with the fear of death".

At those words, Seraf exploded in maniacally laughs.

- "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!".

- "Mh? Why do you laugh?".

- "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You said fear!".

The man entered in the cage and took Seraf from the neck.

- "Don't you have it?" The man asked, coldly.

The crimson eyes looked at him, the pupils were dilated and the veins visible.

- "You don't understand. You can't! Ahahahahaha.. I crave it.

The death! The cold death that caress everyone in his glorious moment! The sound of it! The beautiful pale face of the death, that slowly kiss you and take you with her" Serad yelled in the cage.

- "You're insane..".

- "I'm insane because I want the death? You're absolutely wrong.

The truly insanely people are the ones who want to live in this no sense chaos.

Kill yourself, first that you can't do it anymore" Seraf stared at the guard's eyes intensely.

The crimson eyes started to shine like a scarlet star.

The armored man slowly took out a knife, and he took his life away, cutting his own throat.

The blood splashed in Seraf's face and covered him.

On the cold floor, a warm blood slowly warmed his bare feet.

Seraf was wearing a low quality clothes, precisely a long white shirt and white pants.

- "I'm so envious of him.." Seraf muttered.

- "I can't use my powers here.. There's something strange here" Seraf said while he exited from the cage.

A little smirk appeared on his face.

A monster's normality has showed up. The madness of a essence could be unstoppable.

The essences's psyches are very delicate, the level of stress could brought them into a void of madness very quickly than the existences. The essences be born with a part of psyche totally destroyed by the the monstrosity.

There's no one without a part of monstrosity inside of them, or they're would be an existences.

Seraf kneeled down, and he started to breathing hardly.

- "I need to find Ezeden quickly.." He slowly said.

After he brought the guard to the suicide, Seraf's psyche has being damaged by his madness's part.

His humor changed quickly, from the introvert who analyze his vision before the attack, to the one who want to slaughter his enemies with no mercy and make a blood bath.

The castle where Seraf was imprisoned, was covered by a strange veil of magic, that make weak the powers of the others.

Seraf's powers are unlimited, the crimson blood is his infinite source of power.

The one who has the crimson blood, has an eternally destructive power inside of him that no one can stop it.

An another synonym of "monsters" can be "essences"
