Chapter 4 - IV. Kingdom of hatred

Misu was amazed by the beauty the Kingdom held even behind the gate "wonder how beautiful it will be from the inside" thought Misu, she was staring up at the gigantic gate of the Kingdom, a beautiful decorated gate with mighty guards keeping any threat away from the Kingdom.

The guards started to gaze down at Misu from the top of the Kingdom walls, "what brings a fairy to the Kingdom Of Hell in times like this?" Yelled one of the guard "I'm a trav-" Misu tried to answer but got interrupted immediately by a guard who was shouting "this filthy creature must be one of the greatest evil's army!", the other guards started to calm him down.

One of the guards approached Misu and said "I'll have to inspect you before we open the gate, I mean, what would be the reason that a filthy creature comes to our great kingdom?" Said with a smirk "put your belongings aside","It's okay I get it" Misu replied with a slight smile while she was putting her belongings on the ground "since the war started every kingdom became restricted, kings and queens are doin their best to keep their kingdoms safe and-","shut your mouth won't you?" The guard interrupted "what in the name of the four masters are you yapping about? Blah blah blah, just shut up and let me inspect you already", Misu felt heavy on her chest.

The guard started to inspect Misu's body while the other guards inspected her belongings, "Yo check this out" one of the guards shouted "what a book worms she is, look at those books, they're so many!", the guards laughed looking at her stuff "what a freak" they thought, it was like they never saw a traveller , or maybe she was too weird for a traveller.

Misu felt uncomfortable, she was being laughed at and touched way too much for so called body inspection, a slight tear was about to fall out of her eyes "horrible kingdom, horrible guards, this is horrible I don't feel good" Misu thought and kept on repeating those words inside her head, a memory flashed back suddenly before her eyes, a memory of someone touching her, it was hard to see his face and his voice was unsettled, her facial expression changed all of a sudden, but she tried her best to hold herself together and maintained a slight small on her face just to keep everything alright, she didn't want to make a scene, not more than that.

"Yeesh man" said one of the guards up the walls to his fellow guard "they've been inspecting that girl for a long time","they're just playing around" replied the other guard "to satisfy themselves, bastrads, they already know she doesn't have anything that can be dangerous to the kingdom, but she's too naive to know what's happening", the other guard smiled and said "well you don't see a fairy very often so let them have little fun, you know, if a war started again against Selana, I'll take every fairy I can as war spoils, they can get it","one two" said the other guard and they laughed together.

"STOP AT ONCE" yelled a man indignantly, a handsome man with light skin and straight blonde hair that reach to his neck "SINCE WHEN DO WE HAVE THIS FOUL INSPECTION IN OUR KINGDOM?!", the guards froze in their place, they were too scared to talk, "we…" one of the guards tried to talk with a tone of a terrified person, like someone who is starring straight at his doom, stuttering he said "it's….we don't harm to fall on the kingdom….my prince…", Misu was shocked "this is the prince" she said to herself with amazement.

The prince was furious, he saw something unforgivable, he soon punished the three guards that were inspecting Misu "you shall walk out the kingdom in disgrace, thou shall not be guards anymore, i can not bear to have such disgrace as guards to the kingdom" said the prince, "but my prince" one of the guards said with a shaky tone "this is all we have!", the prince looked down on him and said "well, you lost it now, remove the armor at once".

Misu felt relieved, finally after feeling sorrow and uncomfortable someone came to save her from breaking apart, the disgraceful guards walked naked away from the kingdom with tears falling like river from their eyes, they knew that their lives had already ended when the prince saw them, one of them start punching himself as a way of suicide, Misu had a slight smile looking at them "they deserved it" she thought, "I must apologies m'lady for such disgrace to you" said the prince with soft tone, "no need what you did was enough" Misu responded, "nonsense" the prince replied "I must make it up to you, come inside, I shall fetch you something to eat and drink before i show you the beauty of the Kingdom Of Hell", Misu nodded and walked with the prince.

The gates opened revealing the beauty of the kingdom, the Kingdom Of Hell is known as the strongest kingdom after the fall of the ancient kingdom Arceus, once a land of fear is now a shelter for all creatures, everyone lives together in harmony except for fairies who are hated in the Kingdom Of Hell for some reasons many don't know about, rumours everywhere spreading, groups picking what story to believe, some believe the fairies started a war against the devils thousands of years ago, some believe that the fairies tortured and enslaved poor orphan devils, some believe that the devils are too afraid of the fairies as they act as their natural rivals even tho the devils have an advantage in power over fairies and goblins, and some believe that the devils are the ones who started the war but lost so they left in disgrace away from the other kingdoms especially Selana the kingdom of fairies.

The rumours go on and on, with most people not knowing the real history between fairies and devils, only those who searched deep down in both the history of fairies and devils know the full story.

Misu was stunned by the high buildings the kingdom bragged about, every person wants to have the highest building, the buildings got too high they started blocking the sun which led to many people falling sick from the lack of sunlight providing the sun vitamins as the scientists called it, those people would have to go to a specific spot or get out of the kingdom for a couple of minutes to get the sun vitamins, and that's what most people did, they call it the Stun The Beautiful Sun, and it means stunning themselves and giving their time to the beloved sun, some even started worshiping the sun.

"What an interesting kingdom" Misu thought while looking at the different kinds of creatures even tho her first impression wasn't good, but she blames the guards for it…a kingdom where animals are talking casually with goblins, where humans are wrestling with devils and where mermaids are dancing to entertain other creatures, but this kingdom held hatred towards fairies, everyone looked down on Misu, the atmosphere got heavy, Misu started to feel uncomfortable again, a huge weight on her chest, this feeling of uncomfort only comes when she's afraid, afraid of something bad that might happen to her at this moment, will she get abused? Will she get harassed? Will she get insulted and humiliated? The possibilities are endless, but they're all negative…
