Tydeus placed his head down, hiding his face. He was still perplexed about what he had heard the night before. Perhaps it was all a dream or he was just unconscious. The last thing Urshuz told him was that, he knows what he is supposed to do. But the look on Tydeus's face could tell that he was already discombobulated. How he is supposed to handle this situation? He probably has no clue.*BANG! BOOM!! BANG!!! BOOM!!!!*The royal soldiers began beating the royal drum, signalling to the attendees and guests in the hall about the king's arrival. The other palace soldiers marched themselves gallantly and made formation in front of the stage in the hall. King Nezeron, with his general and chiefs, majestically walked out of the inner chamber and ascended onto the stage of the castle.The reason why the King had been busy in his inner chambers was now very obvious. His makeup artists and maids have clearly done a good job on his attire. He was wearing a shiny red robe adorned with golden j

“Is Tydeus already going to collect our fee from the king?” Sakoh asked Rakeh curiously as the soldier took Tydeus further into the distance.“I hope so. If anything happens to our payments then the king should better be preparing for trouble”, Rakeh replied to Sakoh“What do you mean? What has the King said about our fee? And what did Tydeus just tell you now before he left?” Sakoh asked again fastidiously.“He told me something that will never happen”, Rakeh replied sarcastically.“You're sounding like we are going to be having a payment problem. Tell me I'm wrong”, Sakoh said to Rakeh again curiously.“That's why I said, the king might need to be preparing for trouble”, Rakeh gave another sarcastic reply as he picked and bit another chicken meat from his plate“Not just any trouble, but big trouble. I mean, after almost killing ourselves on the broken bridge, fighting adventurously in the Valley, saving the boy from the Cytorex and eventually completing the mission…”“We aren't sti

Tydeus was literally on a dead spot; he had himself outnumbered one to twenty, with his neck threatened by the tips of twenty spears. Only a stab from one of the guards could send him to join his ancestors within the blink of an eye.Tydeus clenched his fists angrily, his veins had started to protrude from his skin, threatening to burst out if he didn't cool off. He took his face around him and observed the guards; they were filled with so much vigour, at least they had their spears aiming for his neck.One of the guards, as he realized Tydeus wouldn't yield but do something stupid, immediately brought his spear closer, trying to stab Tydeus's neck from behind. But Tydeus was smart enough to notice him and as the soldier came close enough, Tydeus dodged the stabbing impact of the spear and lifted the guard like a piece of wood over his head. The King became shocked instantly; probably, scenes that happened in the Valley Of Bones flashed into his mind.The rest of the guards tried to

“A deadly slow poison that annihilates the life of anything it gets into”“Only a drop could kill the most gigantic creature in the world but only in an amount of time, depending on how strong the creature is”“A clump of tiny slimy parasites that replicates irrevocably when it gets into a host”“They get into a host and start to multiply, and as they multiply they gradually kill every living cell in the body of the host”“The host can only bear the pain for a short amount of time depending on how strong the body immune of the host is”“But no matter how strong any creature that swallows even a drop of it might be, it can never last twenty-four hours before it dies”“Whoever gave you this magical work of chemistry, must be a very sound alchemist, Rakeh”, Artecus said as he walked into the dungeon towards Rakeh's cell arrogantly and with a villainous smile.“Come on, Artecus. We don't have much time. You can still try to break the lock from the outside and you can…”“Heeey. Take it eas

“A ferocious warlord of the Pharaoh thought he could overcome my hordes. Of course, he tried. He killed many of my henchmen. But I later found out that he was an Athacian and the Athacian were threats to my ambition”“So? As a wielder of the powers and secrets of the Afterlife, I summoned the demonic Black Army of the underworld and I sent them on a little errand to clean up Athace for me and they did it very perfectly, that day was the happiest day of my life”“I had peace for a long time again, living as the King of Giza. And as for the Civil War, that wasn't my fault. I asked the rulers of the other cities for a small request, but they declined, so I made up my mind to take it by force”“They didn't want me to get what I want in the easy way so I had to take it from them in the hard way. I wanted to make sure that every part of this nation felt my power and my wrath. And after I thought I was done,”“I heard some people were camping and hiding themselves in a small village, Malja.
