Chapter 7: Clash

Twelve hours have passed since Christ-Yne disappeared. In a country not far away from the city, Carl meets Aurora who was sending him a secret message. She will accept to join them on one condition.

Carl yelled at her. ''What! Are you being serious? Do you know that our Leader is Christ-Yne right?.'' Who told you that?

A féminine voice rang out suddenly in their ear.

'' Who is there.'' They put themselves in a fighting position. '' Show yourselves!'' Aurora speaks.

There is nothing to be afraid of. I'm not going to eat you both.

A person jumped from a tree not far from them. His face was covered with a veil and a hood to hide his identity.

''It's me.''

Carl scratches his head and says. ''Miss, are you lost? I can walk you back to your tow .... ''Pah'' Aurora hits him on the head. Do you think she looks lost? You idiot.

''Ai..'' It hurt.🤪

''Sorry, I didn't take my hood off. It must have confused you. It Can change the appearance of the holder.'' Angelica explained.

Then she took off her cap, and the duo Carl was surprised after seeing it was Angelica.

''How did you manage to find me? Carl interrogates her.

''It's like child play for me.'' She replied.

''Don't tell me that you have a crush on me? Right?'' Carl teases her.

''You are courting death.'' Angelica got angry. The trees in the vicinity are shaking because of the wind coming from Angelica.

''I' m sorry, I didn't mean to. '' Carl hides behind Aurora.

''Hm, all you can do is hide behind a woman?''

'' Because you are too powerful to be a woman. Are you sure you're one of them? Carl continued.

''You little... 🤬''. She was about to act when Aurora interrupted them, "Stop arguing you two. Carl, stop making her mad at you.''

After that, She turns to Angelica and says in an icy tone

''As for you Angelica, we didn't invite you here, so you are not welcome here. Go away.''

''What if I won't?'' she replied

''You think I'm afraid of you?, Do you think you're beautiful and everyone loves you? But deep down you're just a spoiled brat''

''You've gone too far'' Angelica replied with a slightly annoyed tone.

'' Do you think that I've tailed you because I have the choice? I'm only here because I have a deal with Carl.''

"Oh!?'' Aurora was stunned by what she heard. Then a sudden realization hit her. Don't tell me you two have a, a... ? My Godness, then Aurora blushed.

'' Ahaha,😂 no we are not in that stage yet but our relationship is improving.'' Carl laughs.

Angelica cried out, his tear almost flowing out of his eyes. Because when she was born in the palace. No one dares to talk back at her like that. But this time she held back her anger not taking the best of her. However, after hearing the last joke she lost her cool.

"This is absurd, this is so absurd. How can you slander me, I will teach you not to disrespect your superior anymore. I will break your bone.''

''Come if you have the ball''. Says Aurora on the other hand.

''I'm ready. I've been wanting to cross swords with you for a long time.''

At the same time, they jumped in the sky. Angelica casts her spell ''The whirlwind of the wolf''. Roar... A humanoid wind wolf jumped towards Aurora.

''wall of fire'' A barrier of fire was erected in front of her to protect her from the attack.

The wolf hit the wall but could not cross the shrubs around it were torn from their roots. Because of the impact of the whirlwind.

Your shield is interesting, but how about this? She formed a sign on one hand while chanting a spell. ''Second form of Mini-typhoons. The breath of the ice queen.''

Carl cried out loud. ''Run Aurora run,..'' After that, he ran all of his Might from the battlefield. Aurora was about to cast another spell, Her wall of fire dispersed little by little.

An icy eye formed above Angelica.

She was about to raise her hand to cast it then, suddenly, a space-time portal opened between them. Which broke all their focus, They did not have the time to act when suddenly they were flying far away by a magnetic field.

'' Ugh''

'' An invasion by the enemy through this back part of the Kingdom?

I must inform my royal father. And then she turned to Aurora and Carl. ''You must leave as far away as possible. There is an attacking enemy ahead.'' She said.

''I can help you,'' Aurora replied.

''You can also count on me''. Carl gets up from the ground.

''We defend our kingdom no matter what!!!'' Carl continues.

After a brief strategy, they move in the direction of the portal.

'' Stay behind me. Under no circumstances you shouldn't get ahead of me, otherwise, I can't guarantee your safety. I'm I clear enough? She says in a stern tone.

''Yes.''

Nearing the portal, Angelica sensed a familiar scent. And she speeds up her pace. When they arrived at the center got stunned by what they see.

"CHRIST-YNE??" All three shouted at the same time.

''How did he get out of that portal?'' Aurora puzzled.

'' I don't know'' Carl continued ''the last time I saw him was at the library and now here. It's my first time for me to see a portal.''

All time, Angelica inspected the area but found nothing suspicious except Christ-Yne who floats three meters in the air.

''We gotta We need to get him down and get out of this place as soon as possible. Soon there will be people here. Let's go.

After their departure, a shadow came out of its hiding place Princess Angelica, for your safety I must inform your royal father. After that the shadow faded away.
