The Full Moon And It's Curse - Part 1

Rex and Julia were in deep sleep. They were sleeping in such a way that even if the world would break, they wouldn't be able to feel anything.

Meanwhile, Daryun was keeping a watch and was checking if there were any enemies nearby.

"Ha...It's too late in the night now, the breeze is a little chilly but feels comfortable, the land is still a bit warm and the Moon is brighter than usual.....", he looked towards the sky as he said this.

Daryun was thinking of asking Steve to check around the area once more when he suddenly remembered something.

"Wait! Why...? Why am I feeling this chillness when my body is strengthened to this extent. It should not be the case. Something is wrong!! Could it be... W A I T!! The Moon is brighter than usual, I guess now I understand the reason for it being brighter! It's a Full Moon tonight! Yes! That is seen in the sky..."

"Oh My God! Why didn't I notice any sooner...? Steve!", he immediately called out to Steve.

Daryun was known not only because of his power and achievements but also was known for his calmness and collective thinking. But now since he called out to Steve in such a manner as if the world was turned upside down and on top of his voice, Steve and the other guards were startled and shocked!!

"Captain....? Is something wrong..?", Steve immediately rushed towards Daryun and asked this.

Daryun didn't have enough time to explain so he said, "Quick! Steve, use Earth magic and raise the level of ground this instant."

"Wha...?"

Seeing his captain in this state for the first time, he was shocked and didn't continue to pry on the matter and did as he said and used 2-Tier Earth Magic.

'EARTHOPLATORISO!'

A magic circle with 2 rings is formed and the level of the ground had risen. (*Number of circles indicates the tier of magic*)

.The place where they had camped had now risen to a height of 10 meters.

Daryun next said, "Good! Now go and get stationed near Young Masters Tent and be on guard!!"

"Yes Captain!!", Steve immediately did as he was told.

"Damn it!! Why is today suddenly a full moon!?"

[N O T E: They do not have calendars in this world and don't know about Lunar Cycle!!]

"I wish that everyone in the Kingdom is safe! I, myself, am feeling more powerless than would other people be feeling. Damn! If only it were not for that CURSE!", Daryun was worried.

Meanwhile In the Castle Of Kingdom Of Rhone

"Aargh!, King Alex shouted because of the immense pain which was twice the normal.

Queen Elina was crying and saying, "De...Dear, a little bit longer hold on...."

"Aargh... huff huff....", he seemed to be panting a lot and his condition was unstable!

"Dear... is it better now?", she too was in pain but it was quite less than compared to Alex.

"Ye...Yes.....", he could barely even speak.

Queen Elina with a painful and sad voice said, "Why.....why must you suffer like this? Why....? If you hadn't done that you wouldn't have to suffer like this. Why...?"

"Ha! This pain is nothing. At least my sacrifice can reduce the curse, even if it is a little bit...", it was as if he didn't bother to feel the pain!

"But...", Elina wasn't able to tell anything else and just lowered her head.

"I hope Rex and Julia are doing well. I made this sacrifice, especially for them.", even at such a time, he was thinking about Rex and Julia which depicted how much he loved them.

"After all, this curse was put upon us by a Dragon!!", was what Alex said.

"But Why did a Dragon inflict its curse on us and our citizens...?", Elina knew that it was a curse and that too given by a dragon but she didn't know the reason.

"Hmm... I have never told you, have I? Very well..... listen carefully. This curse was inflicted on us by one of the Legendary Dragons - ALKAMA- The Dragon Of Darkness and Curses..."

"A long time ago..."
