Chapter 40 - Chapter 39

His father after hearing those words freaked out quickly and said, "you idiot, he wants you to be with him, he will give you the universe kingdom."

Daniel shown a mocking sneer, he was sorry for his dad, how could he be deceived by Lug's empty promises like and child who does everything for some sweets, he fell insane that easy!

"Yes for the universal kingdom of dead earth full of bones, it does not work for me, how can you believe him easily? He is misleading you."

The mayor Ray was even angrier than a second ago and replied, "you have gotten insane boy, like your mother, she paid that back with her life".

Daniel didn't like the last words, that conversations had no result, and already done. His father's soul was lost already, poisoned, and fell off to the darkness through killing innocents. Without saying any words took steps to the stairs, he went up the stairs but saw Allen who was pretty drunk and couldn't even stand on his feet. He entered the hall with his muddy shoes and erased them with lion's cortex.

Daniel shook his head in pity, Mayor Ray shouted, "you fool, you went hunting again then to that whore house again, you are in charge now, stop this nonsense."

Allen started laughing stupidly and said, "Does it matter to you?"

Daniel was sick of his irregular hunting and said, "You got even more savage, if you keep doing that, soon there will be no more animals in that forest".

Allen became furious at what he said and wanted to attack him, but slipped and fell off down to the ground. He passed out and his servant Bernard helped and took him up the stairs to his room while going up, groggy turned his head to Daniel while his eyes were mid-widen, "You will payback for those words".

Daniel didn't care about his nonsense word, went to his room on the second floor, and laid down on his bed. The curtain was dancing with the wind hoofing songs. He was staring at the sky, but a few minutes later heard his sister Luisa's whimpering stilly. Quickly moved to the balcony. His 17 years old sister sat on a bench in the garden and looking at the moon. He jumped down from the balcony Luisa scared jumped up, trolled back, and cleaned her tears.

He asked her why she is crying, then caught that she heard his conversation with their father, she asked him to take her with him, but he disagreed.

"The place that I'm going isn't safe for you", she narrowed her eyebrows, grabbed his sleeve like a child begging and said, "If you think I'll be safe here you are doing wrong", Daniel wondered and said, "what do you mean by that? Does someone bothering you?"

"Never mind, anyways you won't take me with you," she frowned.

"If you tell me the truth, I promise to take you with me, or send you somewhere safe, but promise me you won't cry again", He said and hold her down.

"It's about Allen, he got crazy and says he is in love with me," she closed her eye, it disgusted her to explain more, but she had to do something instead of keep being mute, "He tried to hurt me… I mean touches me…I screamed and slapped him then I told him that if he touches me, I will tell you everything, then he stopped and stepped back, if you leave I'll be alone and unsafe".

Daniel was burning inside, it was a heavy and unexpected pain to him. He was close to killing his brother, but it was all Lug's desire and he couldn't give it to him that simple. His heart could become prisoned by darkness, he embraced her again and tears fall out from his eyes, "that rubbish will payback for it, you could have told me earlier," he looked into her brown eyes, "do up your things, we are traveling so light gather up necessary staff with you, we are leaving tomorrow before rising".

She got back to her room rosily. Daniel showed her a bitter fake smile, but still couldn't forgive his step-brother, was thinking about all Luisa said, but suddenly Angel flew down on his shoulder, there was a small tied paper on her feet, "Mirano ruins, at 11, Lorena", Daniel sent an angel back before someone has seen her.

It was ten minutes that he was waiting for Lorena in the ruined castle Mirio of Mirano. One day it was a magnificent place with so many stories passing through it, but now just some walls and stones left behind. He was standing on a wall and looking at the dark valley. He heard the sound of screaming and jumped down on the wall. The sound was coming from the forest side, then saw a known monster with triple tails and double heads. It injected the venom into the poor women's chest by the middle tail and her soul separated from her body. The left head swallowed her soul when those sharp teeth got close to eat the rest of the victim, Daniel arrived and attacked it.

The monster tried to inject him with the poison tail, but didn't succeed, and hit the ground by the right tail, a red burning fire came out of it, Daniel cut the middle tail, but the monster didn't step back, kept attacking till the blue fires came out of the dark side, burned the monster and the ashes left behind disappeared in the air. Angel flew down to the ground and saw that Daniel's hand bleeding, a tear left down her eyes and healed the scar, like never existed before.

A white hooded person got out of the dark like a shining star, everything was glowing about her, "Nowadays, spirits of hell monsters show up a lot". Daniel lodged the sword in the sheath and said, "So that monster is the spirit of hell, what a suitable name."

"Cover your face and take the body out of the jungle, people will find her", Lorena said

They put the poor women in a visible place and came back to the ruined castle, Lorena took the hood off on her head. Her white straight hair danced as the wind blew. Her green eyes shined like stars in the nights. They were glean of hope that the earth needed for a long time, from a girl who no one knew what she is.
