Chapter 31 - CHAPTRER 30 : The dead army would rise

 " What's her name? "

 " Princess Lily Humbert "

 " A time for a second spell, and I control the tides as well, vude asgertum bapunde, cojsiurn vudes embertemum " the elder chanted, as he chanted, the dark circle in between them began to form a dark smoke ,the smoke kept increasing as the elder chanted and then when it reduced, the elder's eyes that were once closed became opened, he has been possessed. 

 " Half human " he began talking, he was not looking at Rian. It felt like he was describing what he was seeing " half magical, white hair, light blue eyes. She's not in control of herself, unity, the two halves know about each other's existence, they have frequently visited scimitar, an amazon woman, the strongest of all magical creatures from time memorial . "

 " What else? " Rian asked eagerly 

 " The two halves cannot stay without uniting, they have to unite or else, the human half can be controlled by the book of spells. And, when the human half is controlled by the book of spells, the magical half would loose herself forever. Her power must be used for good . It is certain, the army of the dead shall rise again " and immediately the elder finished talking, the smokes disappeared, his eyes went back to being closed .

 Rian had a hard time thinking, Lily was the next amazon woman. If he could , he would change her fate, but, it was impossible, she was stronger than him . He would protect her, he would do all he could to ensure she's safe. 

 The elder started coughing terribly, Rian turned to his side only to see the elder struggling. His body was being strangled, his life slowly leaving, there was a dark line around his neck, it was strangling him. 

 " D-d-don't fo-for-forget your pr-o-o-mise " the elder reminded 

 " Hrothgar !! " Rian shouted at the top of his voice but before Hrothgar could come, the elder was gone. Hrothgar arrived only when the elder was dead. At that instant, the whole village changed to white apparel, to mourn the loss of a great hero and elder. 

 His burial was simple , the elder's body was tied to the wood. His body was cremated . As they burnt the body, Hrothgar began to chant , they while village was in tears. Today , they mourned the loss of a great leader. His ashes were collected and dropped into the river .

 At night, Rian went to heck up on Dru. 

 " Did you find the answers you were looking for, your highness? " Dru asked on seeing him 

 " I did " Rian answered " It turns out that she was an amazon woman " he announced 

 " What would you do now, your highness? . A lot of people would come for her if they knew what she was "

 " I'm well aware , I know what to do " 

 " Your highness, do you really intend to be king?, you told me the last time that you had no interest whatsoever " Dru wondered because he knew his highness did not desire the crown 

 " If I were to protect her, I would need more power. Also, I've made a blood oath, I've decided to become king because of them "

 In the shadows, a man was listening quietly. At this revelation, he gritted his teeth and left the valley.
