Chapter 39
Killing Cynthia
Postinur: It's alright, Aly. You are strong, you shouldn't cry.
Prince Kelly: Yes, you have gone through a lot, Princess
Postinur: Remember, what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger
Lydia: It's all my fault. I shouldn't be here anymore
Prince Kelly: How is it your fault?
Lydia: Since I came here, Sisi has been going through one problem from another. Even the demoness killed Aunty because of me. I should have shouted as soon as I saw her. I shouldn't be here Sisi, I'm leaving with my parents. I will go back with them
Prince Kelly: What are you blabbing?!
Alysia: You are not going anywhere Ly, we will go through this together
Postinur: And stop blaming yourself, Lydia. It's not your fault as you think.
Lydia: You guys are just saying this to placate me
Alysia: No Ly, It's nothing but the truth. (Lydia hugs her)
And I'm not going to sulk here anymore. I'm going to get my revenge for mom. I will kill Thanatos and make him go into exile for centuries!
Postinur: That's my girl!
Alysia: We aren't strong enough. That demoness was clearly more powerful than us. We need to train, magically, without interruptions or cautions.
Lydia: How can we do that?
Alysia: We have to enroll ourselves in wits high
Postinur: That won't be possible, The teachers there aren't ordinary or good. They are from the darkness. Diana employed them herself. They will easily know that we aren't dark like them.
Alysia: Then what do we do? We need more and better practice
Prince Kelly: Hmm, what about Cynthia. She can maybe train us
Alysia: What?! Cynthia?
Prince Kelly: Oh we didn't tell you guys. Cynthia helped us to save you, Alysia from the demoness
Alysia: Why? What did she want In return
Prince Kelly: Nothing. We threatened her that Duren Will be exposed to all these, meaning he would be in danger. We know she wouldn't want her lover to be in danger. She eventually succumbed.
We will just threaten her again to help us
Postinur: Nah. She won't, she warned us strictly not to come for help again.
Lydia: Then what do we do? (A knock) Yes?
Kristin: Lady Lydia, you are awake. Thank goodness. Please can you help me wake Princess Alysia too, lunch is to be eaten by the royal family together at the royal dining room.
Lydia: Alright. You can go. (Kristin leaves and fading footsteps can be heard) You heard that Aly, let's go have lunch, we will talk about this later.
Alysia: Right hand man, let's go (They leave to have their lunch. Postinur Poofs outside to have fresh air, everything seemed tensed and too quick to him)
At the supernatural realm
Thanatos is back from who knows where, he goes to his room and senses something went off. Nemesis sees him and walks up to him
Nemesis: Hey big brother. Welcome home!
Thanatos: What happened here?
Nemesis: Um, I don't follow
Thanatos: I can feel something off! What happened here?!!
Nemesis: No need to yell, brother. It's just Cynthia and two boys, one human who seems no less than 20 or so, I don't really know. And the other a young ghost.
Thanatos: What?! How dare Cynthia!
Nemesis: I tried to stop her when I saw her but you know, light. I don't want to feel light at all.
Thanatos: Ahhh!(screams in anger) I will deal with Cynthia!
Keres, the goddess of terrible deaths, Thanatos' sister enters into Thanatos' Erebus (domain)
Keres: Hey Brother. What's going on?
Nemesis: Cynthia entered into his domain and even inside his room.
Keres: What? Why will she even enter into the dark world? What is her business here?
Thanatos : That's what I want to know. Lemuel! Lemuel! (Lemuel, Thanatos right hand man appears)
Lemuel: Your lordship
Thanatos: Where is Gradeshia?
Lemuel: Kinalen Gradeshia sumontone (summoning Gradeshia)
Thanatos: Where is she?
Lemuel: Your lordship. I'm afraid she's no more. Her response is blank, it tells of no existence
Thanatos: I thought as much. Cynthia came to kill Gradeshia for capturing Alysia.
She will pay!
Nemesis: Brother, revenge is my thing, it's my name, all me. Let me tell you what to do to her. Hehehehe
Thanatos: Speak.
Nemesis: Use Diana to kill her.
Keres: Nemesis. Cynthia is stronger than Diana she will surely kill her
Nemesis: You haven't heard my plans completely. Use Diana to kill her and I know Diana will eventually die and go into exile for centuries but let's try her first. Maybe by being a human queen and mother to Cynthia, she has gained more power, strength and wisdom too. If she dies, we will use her lover boy to take her. Hahahaha (laughs evilly)
Keres: That's my siblings in evil.
Thanatos : I am doing all these for mother, even if she's against it. I'm doing it for her. Plus I want to bring down that stupid god of light's pride!
I'm not evil, just for the interim. I will go back to light
Keres: Yeah yeah. You have said that before. I know. But enjoy being evil for now
Nemesis: Yes, brother (they all laugh wickedly)
At Oberon
The royals are having their lunch and the Duke pesters Lydia to come home since Alysia already learnt what she wants to but Lydia refuses
Duke Desmond: Lydia. Don't you think it's time to come home? I mean, Alysia here knows everything about being a lady already. And your mom and I miss you so much
Lydia: Dad I'm fine here. Besides Sis is grieving aunt, we all are. I need to be by her side
Duke Desmond: No, my daughter. I'm not saying you should come now, definitely not now, I'm talking about maybe two weeks before your birthday?
Lydia: I will think about that
King Klein: Are you pursuing her from my palace? You don't want her living with us?
Duchess: not so, your highness. Not so at all. We were thinking of arranging a ball for her so as for her to meet her husband. I mean she will be seventeen soon and no suitor
Alysia: My sister isn't crying to have a man
Duchess: She needs one (prince Kelly coughs)
Lydia: I'm done eating. Thanks everyone (leaves in anger)
Alysia: I'm done too. Thanks everyone (She leaves after Lydia)
Prince Kelly: Um, I need to attend to something. Totally not relatable to this. May I go, your highness?
King klein: Sure (prince Kelly bows and leaves)
Duke Desmond: Did we say something wrong?
King Klein: Ask yourself again
