Chereads / Dark And Darker / Chapter 13 - The Kings Reign

Chapter 13 - The Kings Reign

He woke up in the castle, with pain, but he doesnt cared about the pain, he walked through the castle and heared something, some bird noises, from the basement, locked in an cage, with metal doors.

Nothing opend the door and saw it, an bird, an strange one.

"An bird?, why would they keep an bird in such an cage?".

He looked at the bird an saw it was quite an big bird, it had blonde feathers, but the tail of the bird had black and red feathers also it had something strange at its face.

"What is that?".

Nothing wasnt able to tell what it was but it looked strange.

He helped the bird out of the cage.

The bird didnt flew away it sat down on Nothings shoulder, and made itself a good place there.

Nothing spoke with the bird "who are you little bird?", the bird didnt do anything, only looking at Nothing.

The bird also looked at the crown.

"Do you have a name?", Nothing asked that and also said "i dont think you have one, so i want to give you one".

Nothing thought and thought and lastly he got a good name "i will call you Lexa".

Lexa flew around his head, the purpose of it was to show that the name was an good one,

Nothing was happy that he has an teammate and doesnt need to walk alone.

After some more searching and only finding some gold, he decided to go out, but he realized that he wasnt at the other world, behind the door anymore, he was at some other place, that he didnt knew.

He asked Lexa if she know the way to watetolo and she flew in front of him she then writed something in the ground, she wrote 'it will take about an year'.

Nothing shocked "an year i cant do that, what if i would fly the whole time?", she wrote."about 2 weeks with only flying no stop".

He thought a little "mmh i can do that".

Nothing grabed Lexa and put her in a safe place in his coat, then he created wings and flew, she used some strange magic to show him the way, he followed and was able to get faster while flying, even so fast that she panicked.

He told her that shes safe and nothing will happen.

2 min after that she fell out of the pocket from the coat.

He catched her mid-air and this time he placed her in an even safer place in his coat.

He needed to take an break he flew for 20 hours straight and really fast, so he got really sleepy, he landed and took a break, he needed to sleep, so he did.

Lexa woke him up after 6 hours and they flew again, after 7 hours of flying, an flying monster appered something he never seen.

It was big and red, like an phoenix, he saw it in an fairy tale but never knew that something like that can exist.

"An phoenix is an mythical creature and not an monster, the fairy tales said it".

As he said that the phoenix attacked him, he didnt knew why but it wasnt really strong, the fight against the 3 womans in the castle was much harder, was his thought, but then the phoenix created fire and covered itself in it.

The phoenix attacked with much fire, but Nothing just used his darkness and created his sword, then he just cut off the head of the phoenix while flying, "for an mythical creature, quite weak, wasnt it Lexa?"

But then the phoenix revived itself, like the fairy tales said.

Nothing was shocked that something can withstand the death.

He cutted off the head again but the phoenix keept riviving itself.

He then used the spell that the crown gave him.

"Ashtelewa"

"That spell was descirbed as The Kings Reign, death is only granted to these who are not above others" or so it said in the mind of Nothing.

Spells and Abilitys will be showed in the mind of the user, so no one can see what skills or abilitys someone has.

Nothing wasnt sure about his Spell but he used it.

After he used the Spell, the crown appeared and his darkness apperead as aura which strengthen him.

He attacked again, but this time the phoenix dodged, and it even teleported behind Nothing, quickly turned, and attacked again, again the phoenix dodged.

Its big but its increadible fast at the same time, but one thing is the phoenix not able to dodge, the pure darkness.

Nothing created an box out of darkness and caged himself and the phoenix in it, he shoot massive spikes out of the walls to minimize the flying and dodge range of the phoenix.

It worked as planned thought Nothing, then he attacked again, he flew as fast as he can on the phoenix and cutted fully through the whole body.

Normally the phoenix would have reviven but this time it just died, Nothing was shocked but realized something "Mmh, the descirbtion, 'death is only granted to these who are not above others', i think it means that everything that is under the title of an king, will die, even if it is immortal or has the ability to revive itself, that is actually an really good spell and the crown only shows up if i use the spell or if i use my darkness, so no one will look at me like a clown".

After this long fight he kept flying, he arrived at the his home country again, but something was cursed, he felt that something was watching him, but he ignored it and just kept flying to his home.

He was flying and flying and flying until he finally arrived at watetolo.

He saw George and landed quite fast next to him, and looked at him, "i am gonna sleep now" was the only thing he said, then he walked to his house and slept a long time.

The next day was there and he walked to his office, all the people greeted him.

He arrived at the office and sat in his chair while looking through the window and relaxing, George came in and greeted him, also he asked what Nothing did.

Nothing told him what happend and George just looked at him shocked.

Nothing asked George if he can sign him up at an magic academy to learn more about magic.

"Yes i can do that, but why Sir?, youre Strong and youre magic is strange, but this makes it even stronger".

Nothing looked at him and said "its only my magic, but there are many that you can learn and you can learn to control your magic".

"Sir, i will sign you up for an academy, but you need to go to the kingdon LanBerg".

"Dont worry George, i am fast enough".

He said that and also thought at the same moment 'i came here in about 3 days even thou i was in another country'.

He got the acception letter after only 2 weeks and got ready for the academy.
