Chapter 16 - You know what to do darling...

Back in Ukadama Kingdom, an earthquake so intense was threatening to bring down the entire kingdom. The guards at the palace together with the royal family stood at the palace yard with startled looks.

The people of Ukadama Kingdom scampered to their huts to save their dear lives. what was currently taking place in their Kingdom was absolutely a shock.

The tremendous shaking of the ground has never happened in their lifetime. Such scenarios were only myths and bedtime stories which were narrated to the children so as to caution them from wandering into the dreaded Ukadama forest.

Now that It was happening in reality.. fear was instilled in each and every person in the Kingdom.

Sheshije's father stood at the door step of his personal hut. 'This is a bad omen to the kingdom, the ancestors are not happy with the kingdom. Let me appease them with some libations so that I get to live in peace once my daughter gets married and I finally get to enjoy the dowry and a position in the council of elders. ' He said to himself.

In the palace dungeons, Seghete was at the verge of going mad. The pupil in his eyes flickered in golden color the contour of his face had also began to change. The heavy chains that had been holding him back fall freely on the ground. With one swift motion the metal bars were dismantled to let the cell remain open.

The guards who were present their eyes went wide in shock, they were trembling in fear. The hunter had completely transformed into something they had never seen.

As if that was not enough to frighten them to death Seghete came out the cell and snapped one of the guard's head. The guard dropped dead on the ground.

The remaining ones couldn't afford to wait and meet the same fate , they sprinted from the spot living their arrows and armors behind.

Seghete laughed deviously before pointing his fingers in the direction where the terrified guards ran to, the ground beneath them opened and swallowed all of them as if they had never existed.

" My husband let's do something before he brings more damage,some innocent lives might be lost and we'll be exposed if he isn't stopped," the empress spoke to her husband who was deep in thought. She was pacing back and forth.

"You know what to do darling, he listens to you more than he does to me," the emperor answerd calmly.

The empress returned back to her chambers, she desperately went for her magic mirror. Unveiling it..she bagan to chant something incoherently..

His eyes glimmering in the dimly lit dungeon, his veins were popping out due to the rage coursing through his system , Seghete stood at the pathway leading to the entrance.

All he wanted was to get the hell out of the damned dungeon and go for his lavender girl, take her with him to the imperial palace.

He moved his foot to take a step forward but he was frustrated to find out that his limbs had turned immobile. His knees gave in and he fall on the ground. His ears ringing and then a familiar voice penetrated into his ear drum.

" Mcheku shigha ubho!" ( mom stop that!) he muttered agitatedly.

In a blink of an eye he disappeared from the dungeon.

Several hours have passed since everything went back to normal, the earthquake has stopped but it was currently the talk of the land.

Kodawa majestically strode to the dungeons , He couldn't wait to see the terrified look on the poor hunter's face.

On reaching the pathway leading to the cell rooms, he prideful spoke, " Hey weakling, are you still breathing? did you shit on your clothing? hahaha that must have been hell to a feeble being of your likes."

He received no response and decided to walk further so that he can see how pathetic the hunter looked.

He was met with the shock of his life when he reached the cell,the prisoner was long gone, the metal bars laid scattered on the ground, one of the guards who had personally been assigned by him to keep things in control, was dead on the ground.

He turned around to scan the scene of crime, the rest of the guards were missing.
