Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 - New Kingdom

I shook my head and focused on the problem at hand. I then jumped down and jumped into the gateway. As I did, a white flash of light shined upon me as I rolled into the ground. I shook off the dizziness and lifted my head up to see a beautiful bridge leading to an equally beautiful palace. I looked behind me to see the gate closed, revealing a luscious and serene kingdom filled with demi-humans. There were no humans here. As I looked around, I instantly knew what was going on here. We were in the legendary Majiked Kingdom! Rhythian told me about this when I was young.

The Majiked kingdom held many mysteries and wonders. The kingdom was a safe haven for every race that wanted peace. The kingdom was also rich in various minerals ranging from common iron, to rare Mana Crystals. I shook my head and put my focus on Rhythian. When I turned around, I saw Rhythian being dragged into the shiny palace. I stood up and wore my hood.

I ran down the bridge to hopefully get inside as the doors were opened. When I was about to reach the doorway, I was instantly blasted back by a mysterious force. I hit the bridge like a bag of sand. I sat up to see what force hit me back. I then saw a protection rune around the palace doors. I sigh in disappointment and looked around on how to get inside. I needed to think of something quick, I doubt people in this kingdom likes a person in dark brown drabs...

I scanned the palace and decided to climb the palace. I looked for a ledge to start on and saw one by the side of the bridge. I looked over and regret slowly built up as I saw a huge body of water leading into a waterfall. The bottom of the waterfalls were filled with mist, and I would not like to know how deep that was. I gulped deeply as I went on the bridge railings and reached for the ledge.

As I did, the railing cracked and broke under my feet which caused me to fall. In sudden shock, I barely grabbed on the ledge with one hand and held on for my life. Literally.

I looked down and saw the rubble disappear into the mist down below. I let out a sigh of relief as I looked up and started climbing. Minutes into the climb, I seemed to be losing breath. I was confused, as I trained myself to have a decent amount of stamina. As I kept on climbing, I started to see why.

In years, The Human kingdom of Yorthos was searching the Majiked kingdom since the disappearance of the Origin King. In such years, they were lead to nothing. Turns out, the reason why they couldn't find such kingdom because...

The kingdom in the sky! As I looked over the kingdom, and over the mountains. The bright sun shined over my face as a huge gust of wind flew over the whole kingdom. I was in awe as I saw a sea of clouds right underneath us. The sun glimmered on the clouds as it slowly faded into the horizon. This kingdom is as the stories told it to be...

As I admired the view, a small hum echoed underneath me. I looked below me and the roof soon disappeared, causing me to fall inside the palace. I fell hard into the marble floors of the palace and soon after, blue chains went over and grabbed me and made me kneel. My eyesight was still faded from the stupid concussion I received from the fall. I shook my head and as my eyes slowly went back to normal, I saw the woman named Jessica standing in front of me with a very displeased face. I was starting to sweat bullets. She seemed very intimidating...

I looked around to see that I was in a very well lit and shiny throne room. As I kept looking around, I noticed Rhythian standing next to her, but with hands bound with a strange golden metal. I shrugged at Rhythian to signify what was going on. He got the message and sighed.

"Mind explaining who is this dear brother?" Jessica spoke in a sarcastic tone. W-wait...Brother!?

"Jessica...This is...Mileena Dracoheart, my apprentice..."Rhythian explained. I was still confused though...

These two were siblings!?
