"Hey, Elina, do you really love him, like seriously?" Veronica really is curious, she never believed in love, it’s just a fantasy or so people used this word in place of lust, because using this word-love they can maintain their image in front of hypocritical society that everyone is part of.
And just today her best friend told her, she loves that pretty boy, she wants him to stay with her, she brings him along.
Seriously, like seriously— she just knows him for a month. Veronica doesn’t know how it is even possible to fall for soone, love is just a fake-gorgeous word to hide their true ugly motives.
This word is used to manipulate and to manipulate.
So, she really wants to know what place she is using that word-love..
Elina ignored her question as she never heard it. Her face is flat without any particular expression that she uses to hide sothing from her.
Seeing her behaving like this Veronica felt annoyed, but let it show on her face. She smiled, sweetly."Hey, co on tell when you fall in love with him, do you guys confess...."
"Why do you want to know?" Elina asked flatly while thinking. Yeah, it was not a good idea to tell her.
"Why? You ask why."Veronica looks at her with big wide eyes as if asking are you serious, co on, I’m your best friend I have the right to know.
But, seeing Elina still ignoring her question, she was angry, betrayed. She laughed. "Fine, don’t tell , I will ask your little lover myself."
Bitch!. Elina cursed in her mind.
Then sighed, there is no way out.
"I t him when I was kid."
"Oh!,tell more." She had no idea about this. " When you’re a kid you are always with , so...
"Before eting you. When my family died, he saw in a corner of the street, and long story short he helped , he was the one who took to your guards while seeing everything hiding behind the tree and then you ca and kidnapped ."
"Okay, that hurts knowing you see as a kidnapper." Veronica said, removing her fake tears.
Elina rolled her eyes. " Then I recognized him when I saw him a month ago, I beca his friend then fell in love, simple, the end.
"No, not the end, I’m not satisfied yet. Tell how he was when he helped you."
"Five." Elina narrowed her eyes.
She doesn’t like her smile. "And you?"
"Six."
Veronica laughed."Hehehe, a five year old kid is smarter than you."
"Was, you an was, right. And, Ahhh!...
They both startled when the carriage shook, as it fell into the pit.
—
Only a few of them saw it. Out of nowhere a land becos a shadowing dark.
But, everyone felt it, when the land disappeared from beneath and the gravity pulled them in.
All they can do is scream in fear.
Razeal was sleeping, when the loud system’s alarms rang in his head.
[Warning! Warning! Warning!...]
Then the loud thud followed. His body bounced in the air and slamd back into the wagon.
"Ahh!’," He groaned in pain.
"Earthquake- the hell where am I?"he
Then rember he was on ride. Wait, the system? What happened to this thing?
The wagon leaned forward as horses were sitting or fell— he wasn’t sure most probably they fell after hitting sothing.
He can’t see the coachman, the whole front side blocked by luggage.
Ignoring it, first he focused on a screen in front of showing sothing new and it’s alarm beep in his ears.
Also, panic screams coming from outside.
he felt the cold, as winter ca in sumr.
Just then the wagon shook again as horses stood up on their legs.
"Ahh!.."
Losing balance, he hit his back against the wagon and luggage fell on him.
Fortunately, there’s nothing heavy, just clothes. But,why the hell are they taking so many clothes with them?
"Fuck!." He cursed while pushing everything from above him before sitting.
What’s wrong with today? And, what’s this an?
*********
[Warning.. Leave the Bloodmoon realm before the red moon.]
[Ti limit– 27 minutes : 26 seconds
[Failure– death ]
[Alternative– Consu the Blood pool and beco the new ruler of the demasion.]
[ Direction: Left ]
*********
He wants to be happy his system starts working, but he can’t when it receives death threats.
So, we sohow enter another dinsion?
Let’s see. He decided to leave the wagon first.
Jumping down from the wagon.
He looked at his surroundings; it’s still dark.
They’re not under the open sky anymore.
After observing he ca to a conclusion— Now they stood in the corridor of the unknown castle or to specific unknown eerie abandoned castle.
The walls are stained with blood, beautiful chandeliers hanging on the ceiling.
The only light source is a dim white moon light coming from ventilators from his above right side.
"w- where are we?" asked the coachman, the sa one who was driving his wagon.
Why the hell are you asking when you were the one driving?
"I don’t know." Razeal replied.
He can see confusion and fear on the faces of the other.
Now, he also felt a little scared.
Sleeping was not a good idea.
Veronica and Elina also stood there and the knights sounded them.
"What is this place?" Veronica muttered, gazing around.
Are we kidnapped? Elina thought, but didn’t say anything.
We don’t know, Lady Veronica." The knight in command who heard her, replied with a debut." But... I think we get pulled into so divine inheritance."
Well, it’s possible. Veronica thought.
Divine Inheritance: when strong beings die, they leave behind legacies that open on specific tis or when special conditions are t. It’s a very rare legacy to appear, and it always leads to wars between powerful families or even war between kingdoms.
But it’s thousands of tis harder to receive an Inheritance than to enter one. Who knows what traps are set or who left it behind? Most of the ti dead beings’ motives are selfish – like reviving themselves, or worse.
That’s what she read in the books.
There is also a possibility they get kidnapped, but she doesn’t feel any use of spiritual power.
Anyway, kidnapping or not they have to try to leave this place, alive.
"Let’s find a way out." Veronica said in a calm voice.
"Yes my lady.’’ After replying Knight walked away.
– – –
On the leading knight’s command every one took a position, there were around twenty five knights, four couch n. Elina and Razeal aside their’re three more maids.
Leader knights decide to abandon carriage and wagons, as they are only going to restrict their movents. They only took horses with them and all the food.
They don’t know how much ti they struck here, and what danger they are facing.
They have to move cautiously as much as they can.
Elina looked at the Razeal, he stood behind so Knights and coachmans who’re walking with horses.
"Razeal ca here." Without wasting ti she called him.
She wants him to stay close to her, especially in this unknown place.
Razeal was looking at the system when her voice brought him out from his daze.
His eyes t her, he nodded and walked to her.
So knights gave him a sharp stare, which Razeal didn’t even notice.
He was thinking about how to make everyone follow the sa directions the system is showing.
Stooping at Elina side. "Hum?" he sounded softly looking at her as asking what.
Without saying anything she grabbed his wrist.
"Nothing just stays close’’ After ordering him she looked to the other side, and Veronica gave her best friend a knowing smile.
Elina rolled her eyes. Oh, co on, they don’t know where they are or how they’re going to leave and she still wants to ss with her, she doesn’t know how her best friend’s head works.
Razeal felt her soft warm palm.
Okay, she is just worried about . He thought as he cald down a little. He knows she cares about him. So did he.
Everyone starts moving forward and they are moving toward the right direction.
Razeal felt reviled, he didn’t have to do anything, he wasn’t a talkative person to begin with. He had no idea how to make them follow him.
I need to exit this place with Elina, safely.
Knights surround them so they are most probably a safe in the center. Razeal again opened the system panel and looked at the directions.
They’re walking too curiously, which is a good thing but they are too slow. What if the ti limit runs out?
What should I do?
— — —
In a few minutes everyone stopped.
They stood in front of a massive gate.
"It looks like a treasury... maybe inheritance is inside" The leading Knight said.
"How should we open it?" Another knight spoke.
But Razeal was staring at his left side. The room where the system is pointing, even the door is slightly open.
He gulped.
Alright, I just have to lead everyone to that room.
His nervousness hitting the peak, his body was trembling a little and Elina noticed it.
"Are you, okay?" She asked and added. " You’re shaking."
He took a long breath. "Yeah, I’m fine, it’s just cold."
Ti is running out, so he needs to do— should I send so corner foder— i an brave knights to check first.
He decided.
"Um.., while those knights are trying to open that door, why don’t you send soone to check that room since that is already open." He said softly.
Elina glanced at the side where he pointed.
But, before Elina says sothing...
"Aha!" Leader Knight fell on the floor and stopped moving.
"Thud!" Then another followed,
"Ah!Thud!" Then another and another and another, so on..., Just within a second.
The system started beeping in his ears, many ssages popped, without looking he shut the system screen.
And look at the direction the thud sounds co from.
Every knight who was close to the door, already laying on the ground.
Just as the last knight fell in front of him.
Sothing dark shoots toward them, Elina tries to drag him back but they are too slow, Razeal also tries to shield Elina.
And look like he succeeded as the next target was him.
The shadow touched his neck and entered his body, the system kept ringing, he felt sharp pain all over body,. He wasn’t able to move, he wasn’t able to scream, he couldn’t do anything.
He didn’t know for how long he was stuck in darkness. When the pain finally stopped.
His vision ca back. He took long heavy breaths, he was lying on the cold floor, his chest rising and falling.
His eyes moved, he looked at Elina’s worried face trying to free herself from Veronica’s protective hold.
Knights Stood cautiously holding swords in front.
Their faces are pale, scarred from the unknown that killed their fellow knights.
Ignoring everything Razeal looked at the ti limit.
[Ti- 2min : 30sec]
