Iavis returned to the camp with disappointment in his face. The other soldiers notice this peculiar aura and immediately straightened their back and greeted him in seriousness.
The second prince with his always gentle appearance didn't answer them and just went directly to his tent. He lay down on his bed as the black clothed man appeared in his mind. Those red lips and aura. His usual serene and benign expression cracked and change into an intense annoyance.
He grew up to be precise and proper, he was always amiable and gentle but facing those strange power, his face was unveiled by his true emotions. He clenched his fist as the light reflected by the moonlight embrace his already cold and ruthless expression, far from his normally countenance.
Growing up with an uncontrollable power, he learned to masked his emotions by his gentle smile. He was afraid that others may find him cruel and heartless just by looking at him, despite being a descendant of a god. His father was loved by the people, his brother was being worship and idolize by young minds and he, himself, tried to hide his tameless and merciless heart in order to fit in the category of righteous member of royal family.
His azure eyes shook lightly: "How strange, I wanna fight you again."
----------
A castle build filled with holy and sacred ambience, a warm breeze encircled the whole castle ground. And one temple of god glowed faintly.
Crystallize floor and doors reconstructed as a tall and slender white haired woman elegantly entered the altar. Transparent stairs continuously appeared as her step consistently touched the endless stairs. Her white robe with an emblem of holy empire loose on his fingers as her white long hair flutters to point of being an immortal descended into a mortal realm. Her gray eyes calmly gaze at the shining altar as her last step echoed into a completely silent white room.
Her slender fingers release a yellow mana, indicating that she, herself, possesses a holy power. As her mana made a contact with the glowing altar, her vision darkened as she fell to her unconsciousness.
Dozen of holy guards and priests waited outside the crystallized door. Their usually calm and soothing expression cracked into a nervousness.
This is the first time that a god summoned her holiness. It's means disaster. They can't help but shudder in tension.
All of them has extraordinary abilities, tested and trained by the saintess herself. But this is the first time they were all summoned by her holiness and made them wait outside.
The holy empire is an empire where hundred of citizens who had holy power reside. If children aged at fifteen, they will hurriedly test in a ball of light to test their affinity with the holy light.
The kingdom of Orlacion and the holy empire has great connections in each other. Although a kingdom is ruled by the king while the holy empire was in the control of a Saintess, they still harmonize in an equally trailed.
Children with holy power will be to send to the holy empire while the holy empire is responsible for spreading the oracle, to be completely aware of the future disaster.
But now, seeing the anxious expression of their fellow priests and knights. Their heart throb in uneasiness.
A door was slowly opened, revealing the beauty of the white haired girl.
The priests and knights bowed in harmony: "We greet the true messenger of god, her holiness, the Saintess."
"Rise."her voice was soothing and calm like a wind breeze, the daze individuals immediately sighed in relief as they respectfully rise their heads.
They glimpsed a figure standing in the crystallize door, appearance pure and fragile. They immediately look away, afraid if their eyes will dirty the holy saintess.
"I received an oracle."her words stunned all of them.
Oracle?! Is there an incoming disaster?!
The saintess arched her eyebrow, still calm and serene: "The god wants to eliminate an existence, that don't deserve to be in this world."her slender fingers moved swiftly as she stepped down on the stairs, "Hair red as blood, demonic eyes and appearance that more beautiful than gods. He was an epiphany in red. Filled with evil, and the god has said that in the future....he will destroy this world."
"Saintess, your holiness!"
"We need to spread this oracle!"
"We need assistance from the king, your holiness!"
Mixed voices of nervousness resonate the quiet temple. Priests and Knights panic in illogical trail.
"Quite!" They all went quite as the Saintess releases her aura, causing the others to submit to the heavy pressure. "You all went panic in an instant. You are not suitable for staying at the sacred temple. You dirty the gods."her gray eyes glowed darkly.
"Please have mercy, your holiness!"
She released her pressure as they all near the edge of their deaths. She needs more people. Furthermore, she didn't know why the gods were eager to kill this individual. Maybe this existence possesses extraordinary power that made the gods felt threatened.
"Please notify his majesty, I will pay him a visit."she left without giving them a glance and headed to the altar.
A golden dragon staff was hidden inside a crystalized case. Her slender hands touched the emblem and the case opened automatically. She touched the staff as her holy mana has been devoured and filled the golden staff.
She sighed and nervousness appeared on her eyes, "Please guide me on my journey, my lord."
Holy empire was located in the farthest region of Orclacion. It needed almost six months to travels through carriage to the capital. But that is enough for her to gather all the preparations to eliminate this said existence. But her heart was full of uneasiness.
Why does the god was impatient to kill this person?
---------
"Sorry fourth young master, but master said that no one can enter his room without permission." Elvis explained a thousand of times.
He glimpsed at the figure of the glaring man. His hair was shining in blonde as his red pupils fitted his demonic ambience. His build was tall and bulky, almost complementing his wild and untamable appearance. Leon Obelima, the fourth son of the duke, glared darkly at the servant of his brother.
His black clothes displayed arrogance and confidence without a hint of humbleness. His eyes glowed red as he tried to recall the explanation over and over again. He wants to see his brother. He did not see him almost a week, and yet, this servant was too proud to refuse his request.
"I need to see fifth brother, this is crucial."he tried to step in but straight away stop by the knight.
Anger flashed in his eyes, red mana was promptly released, "I prefer not to skin you alive, so let me see my brother."
"But young master—"
Elvis was slammed at the ground as he was kicked away by the angry man. He mutter a lowly groan as pain invaded his chest. Raja gradually approached the injured shape-shifter as he failed to stop Leon from entering the door.
Leon instantly created a red barrier outside, isolating the room from a disturbance. The whole room was clean and neat, he grinned wildly. It will be wonderful, if his brother's blood will dye the normally clean room.
Wild thoughts occupied his mind as his eyes drifted from the bed, but no sign of his brother. His eyes flashed in fury. He was impatient. He was urge to scanned entirely the room, but a heavy breathing came from the bathroom.
His senses were sharp, flourished from the hell training he experienced there is no way he failed to recognize the aura of his fifth brother. Like a red lotus flower, beautiful but gleaming in darkness. His smile turned wicked.
He opened the door and what greeted him was a breathtaking scenery. He knew to himself that his brother was crafted in perfect, exquisite jade. But this prospect was spectacular, causing him to stun and stay in his place.
Bathtub filled with calm and soft water linger on the body of the sleeping beauty. His red hair clings unto the edge of the bathtub as his arms holds in different directions, spreading and seems oblivious in a seductive situation this youth visualize.
He gulped. But soon his mind was crowded by masses of evilness. 'How fun it is to perfectly slice those perfect jade skin. Will his brother cry for mercy?'
With close eyes, Sylvester was already well-informed of the precipitous of this brother of his. He was just waiting for his movements and too lazy to open his eyes.
"Brother are you awake?" Leon confusingly asked, he faintly senses the consciousness of this youth.
Sylvester did not answer. He sighed in relief as he walks slowly towards the sleeping juvenile. He squatted down, just enough to face his younger brother.
"Father said that the soldiers will arrive tomorrow. You will need to get ready for the bloody banquet."he said gently while brushing the wet hair of the youth using his long fingers. The smell was fresh rose fragrance.
"You see brother, why does father always prioritize you? I don't see any good qualities in you except for your face. Your power is not impressive either, your swordsmanship is inferior even to Glacia yet how did you rank third in the first place?"his eyes glowed red as he enjoys brushing the hair of his brother. Full of resentment, but the noticeable one was his eyes filled with obsession.
"It will be wonderful if first and second brother did not give you protection, how fun will it be if I skin you alive in front of them? Peeling every pore of your skins as I continuously played with your body. You see brother, who tell you to be this charismatic? Even first brother has hots for you. Every time I saw him glance at your tempting body, I want to kill him."he chuckled, but his eyes held no joy but full of killing intent, "I want to lock you. I want you by myself. But it's not possible, right? And I know you are awake that's why I'm saying this to you, to observe your discomfort, but it seems...it's no use."
Immediately a pair of red eyes opened, Sylvester did not even bother to look at his perverted brother brushing his hair from behind as his gaze focus on the opened window.
"I see. You disliked my company at all, huh? I'm hurt." Leon pouted, his hands playfully reached the slender naked neck of the juvenile beauty, but a pair of slender white hands stopped him.
"Fourth brother, I suggest you stop playing with me."his tone was mesmerizing with a hint of threatening producing a subdued voice.
Leon smiled, but his eyes exposed his anger. He pulled his hands and stand up while continually facing the young man.
"Father summon us in the dining."he turned his back and leave away from his usually calm brother. He disliked being ignored at all. Even his threats has no avail. He gnashed his teeth in displeasure.
Sylvester peeked at the retreating man, his eyes showed a sudden disappointment. He leaned against the exterior of the bathtub as he breathes a fresh air.
His power has fused into his core. But the balance has been broken, he needed to find the other fragments to avoid exploding in his unstable power.
"Hanabis..."he called.
A ball of shadow showed an angry face. He was all aware of the perverted thoughts of the young man earlier. He could just vent his spleen into somewhere else. But he uses it in his master, who was a god! How dare that lowly human.
Sylvester's notice the discomfort expression of his partner, his lips curved, "What is the situation outside?"
"The gods already knew that you restored one of the fragments of Yuno. They were already moving and using all methods to eliminate you by exert..."he stopped in midway. He was afraid of upsetting his master.
"Exert what?"
"M-Master...they manipulate people and created an oracle and prophecy to completely destroy your existence. You are now the target of the empire. The enemy of human beings. Master...they are too much. You don't deserve this."he sobbed, feeling wrong.
His master suffered most of the time. But no one understand his pain and the gods, who was enjoying the prestige but showed no effort...they were all selfishly devoted in their inclination.
Sylvester smiled gently, "I see. Thank you for your handwork Hanabis."
Hanabis sobbed more. His master was always understanding and acumen, even if the world turn around him, he was still peaceful and serene.
"What are we gonna do now, master?"
"The gods can't interfere in the mortal world, which made them use their vessels and manipulate them by giving them powers and blessing."his eyes lightly formed an arc.
"Then I'm gonna destroy the norm of this world. I'm gonna destroy this world that they created."
