In the city of Siyax, the capital of the Fang family, Scarlett, the Dominator and beautiful girl of Fang, eagerly followed the hot news coming from Iris and Kylian.
The stories were unfolding rapidly, bringing snippets of fiery events and intricate conspiracies happening in neighboring lands.
After much thought, Scarlett made a final decision. She needed to see her sister, Shylia, the leader of the Fang family.
The Fang family was unique, because it's the only family among the four great families in Cyrene, to be led by a woman.
Shylia was not only a leader with a leadership talent but also a skilled warrior, that held the same title as Scarlett who was a dominator. She possessed combat abilities rarely found in other leaders who only inherited the power through bloodline.
Together, Scarlett and Shylia were named the ultimate duo, for no one dared to face them when they fought side by side.
Shylia and Scarlett were orphans, bound by ties of sisterhood and friendship since childhood. They grew up in a harsh environment where theft and robbery were their means of survival.
However, their fate changed when they were captured and sold as servants to a harsh landowner. There, they learned the arts of combat from an elderly slave master who saw great potential in them despite the difficult circumstances.
As the years passed, the sisters began to exhibit extraordinary powers, stemming from a mysterious curse they inherited. This power astonished everyone and led the army to recruit them into its ranks, as it was customary to enlist those marked by such curses. Their fame quickly spread, and they became the talk of every town within Fang's territory.
Unlike Scarlett, who avoided political involvement, Shylia sought radical change. She was disgusted by the corruption and abuse of power within the leaders of the Fang family, so she orchestrated a bold coup against the family leader and seized power for herself.
With Scarlett by her side, no one dared to oppose them, and gradually, people began to accept Shelia's rule because of her justice and desire to improve their conditions of life.
Shylia did not stop at controlling the family but also sought to establish justice among the people, earning their respect.
Having Scarlett by her side provided significant support, for together, no force could stand against their shared vision of the Fang family. Thus, Shylia continued her role with an iron fist.
While Shylia was brushing her hair in her room, she heard a soft knock on the door. "Shylia, are you busy?" It was Scarlett's voice. Shylia responded with a smile, "Come in, Scar…no, I'm not busy at all." _Shylia calls Scarlett by scar_
Scarlett cautiously opened the door to find Shylia sitting in front of her mirror, holding her brush. "What's the matter… Scar?" Shylia asked warmly.
Scarlett approached and sat beside her. "I want to talk to you..." She reached out to take the brush and added, "Let me help you while we talk" Shylia turned and handed the brush to her sister. "Alright, go ahead."
As Scarlett began to gently brush Shylia's hair, she asked, "Have you heard the latest news about what happened between Killian and Eris?"
Shylia smiled and replied, "It's only natural that I would hear about it, Scarlett... I am the leader, after all."
Scarlett responded with concern, "So what do you think? It's a bit worrying I think"
Shylia held her sister's hand affectionately and reassured her, "Don't worry, such things happen often... Leave it to me."
Scarlett sighed and hugged her sister lovingly, "Alright, let me give you a hug then." She smiled.
Shylia patted Scarlett's head gently and said with a teasing tone, "My little sister seeking affection... should I find you a suitable husband for her?"
Scarlett, annoyed, raised her eyebrow sharply, then hugged Shylia tighter, "Do you want to die?"
Shylia laughed at her sister's reaction, "Look who's blushing... Scar, there's no need to deny it, your face gives you away."
Scarlett replied angrily, "One more word and I'll leave."
Shylia smiled, "Alright, alright, I'm just kidding."
Scarlett sighed and remarked, "Damn... your jokes are always really heavy."
They sat there, amidst jokes and affection, filled with intimacy and love.
Meanwhile, Nosil and Aya walked along a mountain path leading to a small village. The weather was mild, and the calm of nature surrounded them.
Nosil felt an intense hunger, placing his hand on his stomach and saying, "Ahh ah… I'm starving!" Aya looked at him with an annoyed expression and said, "If you don't stop whining, I'll kill you myself… damnit"
Nosil closed his eyes slightly and focused on Aya, thinking about how to trick her. He said, "Aya, why don't you go up and scout the area? Maybe there's a village nearby or even a rabbit... I'll eat anything right now." He patted her shoulder to urge her to fulfill his request.
But Aya grew angry and decided to punish him. She unleashed her curse, lifting Nosil into the air in the blink of an eye.
Nosil found himself in the air, looking down and seeing the ground far below. He panicked and shouted, "No, no, no, Aya, please!" as he fell in freefall. Just before he hit the ground, Aya brought him back to his first place close to her, and he landed at her feet.
"Ouch, damn you, are you trying to kill me?" Nosil shouted angrily. Aya leaned towards him and said threateningly, "Say one more word… one more word… I'll send you flying back" Nosil immediately fell silent and stood up quietly, brushing the dust off his clothes, thinking to himself, "Damn her, she almost killed me this time... I'll change teams as soon as I meet up with Lerna."
"Well, did you see a rabbit or something from up there?" Aya asked. Nosil replied sarcastically, "I only saw my death from above... why don't you try it yourself?" Aya turned her head and glared at Nosil.
Quickly, he rephrased his answer, "There's a village not far to the north." Aya said, "Alright, let's keep walking then."
A few steps later, Aya's stomach growled with hunger, her face turning red with embarrassment as she tried to silence the sound by placing her hand on her belly. "What were those sounds... like rabbits passing by..." Aya turned with a furious look and interrupted him, "Say one more word... one more word... and you'll regret it."
Nosil fell silent and tried to calm her, gesturing with his hand as if to zip his mouth shut. He moved ahead, with Aya following him in silence, whispering to herself, "Be quiet, now." punching her stomach.
As they trudged forward, Nosil and Aya reached a small village inhabited by humble farmers. The dilapidated huts were scattered in every corner, and the whispering wind carried secrets of bygone times. This was not an ordinary day, as visitors were rare in these parts, not to mention soldiers.
"I don't think we'll find any food here," Aya muttered softly, while Nosil was preoccupied with trying to sniff out any scent of food. His eyes roved from one hut to another, desperately searching the faces of the few elderly and children left behind, while most of the villagers were out working in the fields.
Nosil was beginning to lose hope until a little girl called out to him, "Hey, mister, are you a soldier?" He looked at her, puzzled, wondering how she knew his identity. His gaze met Aya's, who pointed to her military attire.
Only then did Nosil realize the reason and laughed, replying, "Yes, I am a soldier, of course I am, don't you see my uniform?" The girl responded innocently, "Then where is your weapon?" Nosil was taken aback by the question and tried to dodge it, saying, "A soldier never reveals his secrets... that's a secret"
The girl continued her questioning, "Is the lady also a soldier?" Aya avoided answering, but her silence spoke volumes. A woman, who seemed to be the girl's guardian, approached and scolded gently, "Mina, I told you to stay inside. Don't bother the people".
The woman apologized to Nosil, trying to understand who they were. Gradually, the villagers realized the presence of soldiers among them and gathered around curiously.
"Could it be that you came after receiving our call... at last, we have waited so long," one of the villagers exclaimed with excitement. Nosil and Aya exchanged looks, unable to comprehend what the villagers meant, but the warm welcome they received made them refrain from denying it.
They were invited to dine in one of the homes. The meal was meager, just some bread and soup, but they devoured it ravenously, their hunger gnawing at them.
Afterward, the villagers explained to Nosil and Aya about the plea they had sent to the authorities months ago, without receiving any response till now.
