Chereads / The Cursed Princess of Oberon / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

Alysia in history class

Alysia just had her breakfast and sits on the bed talking to her one and only best friend, postinur

Alysia: you see. I'm no longer little. I know a lot of stuff that even you don't know

Postinur: hmm. How possible is that? (Raises his eye brows)

Alysia: you said you are the only ghost in the whole world. Whereas there's more. In fact, there are demons, gods, goddesses and even magic exists (smiles broadly and victoriously)

Postinur: (surprised) who told you that!

Alysia: Dad. in fact I now know the reason why there's a spirit detector in the castle. Dad said to prevent the demons and ghosts from harming us all. Dad said ghosts are evil.

Postinur: yeap. They are evil. They can suck you soul out(makes a demonstration)

Alysia: ahhh ( frightened) are you one of them! Are u evil too!! 

Postinur: Ahahahah. I'm not evil, silly. If I was evil, I would have killed you from birth (Laughs harder)

Alysia: makes sense. Wait, does that mean that some gods, demons and all, are good too?

Postinur: yes, you can say so

Alysia: Nice. Good to know

Postinur: yeap. And good to know that I still know more than you and that you are still little (smirks)

Alysia: I'm not little! How old are you by the way, sixteen, fourteen?

Postinur: a hundred and fifty years

Alysia: what?!?

Postinur: ahahahaha. Got ya! Actually, ghosts stop aging after they die. The age they died is the age they would remain being ghosts

Alysia: how old were you when you died?

Postinur:eighteen

Alysia: so young!

Postinur: hey, I'm not young, I'm a youth. A very handsome youth

Alysia: Ahahahah, handsome indeed. All I'm seeing is your floating body and white face, haha

Postinur: yeap as a ghost. But in human form, girls die for me. (Alysia laughs) keep laughing. U just don't wanna accept it

Alysia: alright handsome ghost. What made you die. And I thought after death, you would live in the after life

Postinur: yes, I would have been in the after life now but I have a mission to being on earth. To stay by your side always. (Smirks and moves closer to her) to be your charming prince

Alysia: (laughs) you're crazy!

Postinur: hehehe. Anyways, I was killed by a demon but destined to be by your side whether human or ghost

Alysia: wow. A demon killed you. How? (A maid enters)

Maid: your majesty,(bows) your history teacher is in the study room waiting for you

Alysia: alright. I'm on my way. (Maid bows and leaves) 

Postinur: you got a class

Alysia: you will tell me the story later please. (Makes puppy eyes)

Postinur: sure. I can't say no to those beautiful eyes 

Alysia: thanks postinur. Gotta go. Meet you later (rushes out)

Postinur: (a tear falls from his eyes) I love you Mom, and I miss you. 

At the study room

History teacher: (stands and bows) your majesty.

Alysia: good morning Mr Herrick

Mr Herrick: good morning, my princess

Alysia: so what's today's topic. (Sits in an arm chair, Mr Herrick sits on a chair)

Mr Herrick: today, your majesty. Is about the Oberon kingdom. Our kingdom 

Alysia: about trade? (Looks uninterested)

Mr Herrick: (chuckles) no your majesty. It's about the legend of the prophecy

Alysia: whoa. This should be interesting

Mr Herrick : (chuckles) yes it is. (Alysia stays at attention) there is a prophecy written in a book, it's large and it has a picture of a flower and a sword and the flower has a crown on its head. It means, that the destiny of the kingdom's greatness, lies in the hands of a Queen, who would battle immensely to save the kingdom from a god, Thanatos. The god would start his battle from when she comes of age. 

Alysia: wow. Do u know who the queen is?

Mr Herrick: no, so far, the queen isn't yet born. She would have to make lots of sacrifices, she would kill her father, be the cause of her mother's death and will never find love. If she's to find love, there would be consequences.

Alysia: oh my, what a curse

Mr Herrick: However, there's a remedy to the curse

Alysia: what is that?

Mr Herrick: if she can find her true love, who will give her the wisdom to control her powers to defeat the enemies, then she will triumph

Alysia: she would have powers? Nice(smiles broadly)

Mr Herrick: yes. 

Alysia: but I thought u said that if she finds love there are consequences and she's to never love?

Mr Herrick: yes, your majesty. She would have two lovers. One to help her, one to lead her to destruction. 

Alysia: wow. Must her parents die?

Mr Herrick: if she uses her wisdom and powers well and defeat Thanatos and her enemies, then maybe, they won't die. I don't know, your majesty

Alysia: wow. Tell me more about the prophecy 

Mr Herrick: I'm afraid that will be your assignment, your majesty. You would have to look for the book of the prophecy to read. It must be in the castle's library.

Alysia: I will definitely do the assignment and report to you in the next class 

Mr Herrick: very well, your majesty. I will have to take my leave (both bow at each other) good bye your majesty

Alysia: thank you Mr Herrick (Mr Herrick leaves). I'm so curious about this prophecy. I wanna know more. I'm going straight to the library after economics class. I bet postinur doesn't even know about the prophecy. (Twirls) little girl got more knowledge than handsome ghost (giggles) gotta get ready for economics class (postinur appears)

Postinur: Hello, pretty princess

Alysia: Hey handsome ghost (giggles)

Postinur: you look happy. What's up

Alysia: nothing. Just had a wonderful class.

Postinur: hmm tell me about it. 

Alysia: nope. Until I get full information. I was given an assignment on it

Postinur: okay. Not interested anyways. School work sickens me

Alysia: hahaha. Lazy ghost

Postinur: more like handsome and strong ghost who doesn't need knowledge cause he knows everything.

Alysia: knows everything indeed. Okay let me test you. What does Oberon kingdom deal in

Postinur: gold, diamonds, ornaments and cotton even Vegetable

Alysia: Hmm, lucky you. You got that right. Um, why do we study economics?

Postinur: to make money, what else

Alysia: hahahah. Crazy ghost. You tried. 

Postinur: A thank you (bows) 

Alysia: hahahaha. (Maid enters)

Maid: your majesty (bows) your highness, the queen, seeks for your presence in the lady's sitting.

Alysia: okay. I'm right behind you (maid bows and leaves) don't you wanna follow me, postinur?

Postinur: sure, I will poof there later. I got something to do

Alysia: what's that?

Postinur: I wanna visit somewhere

Alysia: where? 

Postinur: bye, questionnaire (disappears)

Alysia: always leaving me like that! No respect! (grumbles and leaves)
