The Princess And The Lord

As the black dragon released from his cage the world swallow by the darkness, the godsend the Lucient child to pierce the Dragon heart with the might god sword, the blood of Lucient would cast the darkness and bring the light but beware of the old serpent lurking in the shadow waiting patiently for the pure soul of the heaven child lost in confusion. 

"What are you reading?"

"Oh, Fred" Lucas lift his head briefly then he closes the book and sighs "Nothing, it just a book that mother left for us"

Fredhard lifts one of the old books on the table and mutters "Hm, so many old books….And no one could read it but you and Lory"

"My mother is always mysterious, she has more knowledge than Father ever be," Lucas smile in melancholy, the library feel even more empty after the war ended's times, he can't help but feel lonely.

Fredhard had no word to consoled him because he knows the loss is far to great for one man to bear. Lucas is more capable than people expected, judging his laziness when he was young no one would expect he would rule better than his predecessor but Lory does. She always said that Lucas would become the greatest King the Kingdom ever know and she's right – she always right.

"Do you know the legend about the black serpent?" Lucas suddenly asks.

"Is it the eight head serpent?" Fred tilted his head while stroking his chin "We face that beast during the King trial isn't it?"

Lucas shook his head "No, not that one – Ablack serpent – like a demon?" 

"No, never heard it before"

The sudden darkness frightened her, it reminds her of Verrion before the darkness covers the world completely. However this is not the same as verrion it's not a dark miasma particle that covers the sky it's only a dark cloud, the dark cloud gathers because it was drawn by dark forces as long she can dispel the dark force everything will be back to normal. Well – she hopes so.

Meanwhile, the guest inside the Sanguan manor is frantic, a dark sky is symbolized of bad omen and misfortune, Sanguan Jin Sheng and Sanguan Wu Ci also confused why the weather suddenly changes, would it be a storm happening.

"Master, Young Master, Lord Long Ming is fighting with Lao Min Na are fighting outside the manor!" the male servant runs in haste.

"What? What the hell is that woman doing again!" Sanguan Jin Shen was outraged, he still needs to curry Long Ming favor for the map but Lao Min Na provoked him again and again, what would happen with their plan.

"Father, let see what happened" Sanguan Wu Ci calmed his father down, suddenly beautiful eyes flashed in his mind and his heart thumping, he hopes she is alright.

As the sky has got darker and darker people to start to hesitate to leave the manor knowing is a bad omen to leave a house in such weather, people in this world is very superstitious they believe in reincarnation, karma, bad omen, auspicious day and such although none of it could be proof or saw with naked eyes, on contrary in Lory's old-world people didn't believe such things everything that can't be proved in a scientific theory or magic theory is deemed to be bogus or simply tall tell, it's a quite funny way of thinking when magic and spell taken as a norm and there an existence people like Lucient.

[Lory, the miasma around that girl gets thicker]

[I know!] Lory quickened her pace to Zhao Li Xin, the amulet she gives to him might not enough withstand the source of darkness itself. 

"LI XIN!" Lory screams anxiously but he didn't hear him.

A venomous smirk appears on Lao Min Na face "You can't kill me, you are mine, MINE!" she laughs in madness.

The flame grew hot as it got bigger as it dances and leaped on the air, his dark eyes glistening behind a cold mask filled with pure hatred and insatiable wrath, he has to kill her not just for his beloved but also for him too, something about that woman begging him to killed her. Zhao Li Xin leaps to the air then he releases his flame and aimed it to Lao Min Na who grinned widely on the ground.

The blazing fire reaches to Lao Min Na at high speed, Jin Hao and the other cover their eyes with their arms as the could feel the heat on their skin, such a monstrous power, maybe their Lord is not human after all. However, Lao Min Na smiles got wider she spread her arms widely prepare to accept the flame with open arms.

From beneath the ground, a black smoke creep from the ground then slowly form a black layer shield, and it blocks Zhao Li Xin Immortal flame, the gusting wind swept the ground as the two power clash, Jin Hao and the other quickly increased their Qi to create a barrier, thankfully Mong Ki and Mong Yi have planted a protective array around them.

Lao Min Na stretches her hand in the air and the black smoke absorbed Zhao Li Xin flame like a vortex, Zhao Li Xin was stunned as his flame was sucked rapidly, he gritted his teeth and pushes more of his flame, however, the more he gives the faster it swallow by a dark vortex. Lory finally reaches him she embraces him from behind at the same time the vortex suddenly got bigger and it spilled dark flame toward Zhao Li Xin and Lory.

'Reflection spell!' Lory flabbergasted.

Zhao Li Xin who was shocked didn't waste his time he shields Lory from the coming black flame. Lory's eyes widen as the black flame got closer, the flame mimick the snake jaw ready to eat them. Lory purple iris shine, she twists Zhao Li Xin's body behind her then she stretches her hand "Lucient king shield" she said in low voice.

'What is Orient mean father?'

'It's a name for a big blue star, you see that – people who lost in the middle of the sea or dessert used this star as a guide to bring their home, as long the orient star was there no one would get lost'

'What if the sky is too dark?'

'Silly girl, the darker it would the brighter it become, that what you are Lorient….'

A sudden purple light shines brightly igniting the world with brilliance glow, like a sudden flashlight the world froze for a moment then the black flame cast away by the bright light, the aftershock from the shield pushes Lao Min Na, she staggered a few steps backward, when she opened her eyes one of her eyes one her eyes iris turn yellow with vertical dark elliptical shape inside it, is a snake eye.

"Lorient" Lao Min Na voice change to a raspy deep voice.

Yang Qiong Yang who is badly hurt was dumbfounded and so is everyone else, Lory Shield Zhao Li Xin with her small body, she looks Lao Min Na warily "Lazarus" she coldly greets the snake.

"SSshh – it's been a while" she make a creepy smile when he stares at Lory.

Zhao Li Xin knew the person in front of him is not Lao Min Na anymore but a real demon, he never scares when facing anyone but this time his heart hammered in his chest, he wrapped his arms around her chest and pull her closer as if the Demon would snatch her the moment he loses his guard down.

Lory Patted Zhao Li Xin hand to comfort him, she thought Zhao Li Xin must be scare right now but what Zhao Li Xin fear the most is how small his power in front of that demon and he know he unable to save her if the demon decide to take Lory from him. What terrifies him the most is losing her, and it's all become too real in the presence of Lazarus.

"A lover I presume…" Lao Min Na grinned.

Lory body tense abruptly follows with cautious and vigilant, the King shield cover with strange rune and weird symbol and circle glowing with dimmed light, the shield expands further it becomes a giant dome that protects Zhao Li Xin and her friend in it, she will not lose anyone today!

"Ssssoon… my dear princess" Lao Min Na smirked viciously.

"Never!" Zhao Li Xin holds Lory tighter, demon, or god he will never surrender his Princess.

Lao Min Na glance at Zhao Li Xin "We'll see – Young King, we'll ssseeee…." Lao Min Na hissed and her yellow iris dimmed then she disappeared together with the black smoke.

Everyone was silent, they had seen a real-life demon and nobody could speak, for they could feel nothing but blind terror. Fear like nothing they ever felt before, hopelessness, desperation, agony, and all negatives feeling mix into one giant big holes that could swallow one heart entirely. How could Lory survive from this, how could she still smile and hopeful when something so dreadful waiting on her tail.

Ming Yue Yin thought she knew her pained but in the end, she knew nothing, her burden is too much for one to bear, her eyes feel moist as tears brimmed in her eyes, she is too conceited, she doesn't know anything!

When she realizes Lazarus has left, the strength drained from her body she falls limp on Zhao Li Xin chest and everything suddenly stop, Zhao Li Xin quickly holds her in his arms, he knew Lory overused her power again, he bit his lips until it slightly bleeds. He blames his incompetence and weakness he doesn't know how long it takes until he strong enough to protect her.

"Lory!"

"Lory!"

"Young Madam!"

"Young Madam!'

Everyone runs towards Lory in haste at the same time.
