Chapter 5 - Friend or foe

"Father who's the dirty child that you have the maids taking care of?"

"I truly don't know but given the fact that he holds a crest and can summon lightning, he must be a royal born from the kingdom of Voltric."

"There has never been another member of royalty that came to visit us from another kingdom. So why is there one now?"

Before the king could answer the maids screamed in horror. At once the king and his daughter rushed to see what the commotion was about, and he to was startled as he sees the child's body covered in sinister black flames.

"Quick call the court sage and several healers!" he shouted to his maids as he use his water magic to subdue the flames.But his magic couldn't do anything to the flames rather it seemed like the flames ate up the water.

"Your Majesty, Ugh." At once upon seen the flames the sage fell backwards,"No it can't be. Those flames are something that I haven't seen in over a century. Those flames are the ~ಅಳಿವಿನ ಜ್ವಾಲೆಗಳು~" ( Flames of extinction )

"What was that You spoke in a language that I don't understand" The king said.

"It is something that can't be said in the human language. Your majesty this child is a member of a high class royal family to be frank he is probably on a scale to be equal to that of the gods.If not than even higher." The sage said as he kept staring into the flames.

''The healers won't do anything the child is safe but I can't say the same for us if we stay here for to long. Though I know it wouldn't do anything, it's best if we set up a barrier in this room. For those flames can burn magic itself even the air around it." The sage said as he began setting up a barrier around the bed,.

"Though It would be nice to be engulfed in these flames a bit more. Sadly I don't think it'll be good for the lives within theses walls." I say as I could feel the presence of the people around.

"Ah your awake. What were those flames just now if you don't mind me asking." The king asked still startled.

"It was...It's the flames of...ah sorry. These flames that you just saw are flames that belong to the royal family of my kingdom. Sorry but I can't say or answer anymore of your questions all I can say is that that sage of yours is correct about one thing, It's something that's on par with even the gods." I say as a tear drop began to form.

"Liar no human is stronger than the gods." The princess said as she held her fathers hand.

"Ha, I guess your right, else I wouldn't be in this miserable state." I felt the tear drop fall on my hand.

"Hush now Audrey can't you see that you made him cry." The king glared at his daughter.

"I'm not crying." I said wiping away the tear.

"Liar I just saw a tear fall from your face." Audrey said.

"I'm not cry so shut up already god your pissing me off!" I shouted as I got out o the bed putting on my cloths. As I did the princess began to cry and instead of the king to get enrage it was one of the guards that was stationed at the doorway.

"How dare you make the princess cry! I will have your head!" He shouted and swung his sword.

~Dragon scale~ ~Dark Mist~ ~ illusion~

The second the sword hit my arm, it broke the sword and the mist covered the front of his eyes as he fell backwards than he began to tremble from the illusion that he saw.

"I'm not someone who cares for others that much but if you or any of your men try to harm me I will not show any mercy. Though I may be young I have taken away thousands of lives. I've lost count after the thirtieth thousand. So do watch your place I hate to be the enemy here but I also never claimed to be an ally. I thank you for the hospitality but I have no business within this kingdom." I say as I opened up the windows and jumped out.

"I hate him" Audrey said.

"Hush now Audrey."

By now the guard was panting and sweaty. Unable to speak but just from his expression it looked like he just came out of hell, but before he fainted he looked at the king and muster out only a few words.

"Hes the child of the gods..."
