One month later on the outer borders of the kingdom. Vel and his team of five were heading toward Skystone army.
“Leader I spotted the enemy army five miles ahead” scout one reported.
“Alright let get moving while it still dark” Vel shouted to the other three.
Soon Vel could reach where the scout reported where the army was supposed to be but found it to be empty.
‘What going’ Vel thought before he felt something go through his heart.
“Why” Vel said staggering.
“This is the King order which is to kill everyone who won’t follow Servant of Light” the scout said as he watched Vel fall to the ground.
“I failed because I trusted them but why did I trust them? whywhywhywhywhywhywhywhywhyWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHWYHWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHWYHWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHWYHWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHYWHWYHWHYWHY” Vel screamed but only blood came out.
“You ended up here little later than expected” a voice sounded in Vel ears.
“I’m dead so where is here” Vel said looking around at the endless white space and a man who looks familiar but can’t place where.
“Currently we are between the living world and reincarnation wheel” the man said and Vel could only put on a confused face.
“Why am I here and not going into the wheel of reincarnation” Vel asks.
“From our deal, I take one thing while I give you the power and what I took from you is your ability to die” Zoren said.
“If I can’t die won’t I continue to age and turn into an old man barely able to move” Vel said as his future looks dark.
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
“Your body will stop physically age around twenty-three” Zoren said to give out thankful sigh.
“If I’m not able to die why am I here and why am I so calm” Vel suddenly said.
“Because I called you here to fill you in on some details about our deal” Zoren said forming a chair to sit on.
“Wasn’t that the only part of the deal” Vel asks confused.
“Let me asks you this before the deal was your memory able to store everything either from seeing, hearing or reading and you're able to recall all the details,” Zoren said.
“No” Vel gave out weak reply.
“Or how about moving pass your parent’s death or Jotol and how about when you were kidnapped and the feeling you get around the princess Zelly” Zoren continue causing Vel to become silent.
“was this part of the deal” Vel asks after recalling why he able to move on only a few days they happen.
“This a small gift I gave you so you won’t go insane by hung up onto the past and the future from outliving everyone” Zoren said.
“Is this also the reason why I’m not crazy about being betrayed and can you tell me why I trusted them so much?” Vel said.
“The bigger shock to your mental or physical state the faster the healing processes while it also reinforces stability. For example, let say you find a room full of decaying body parts and you run and vomit and have nightmares for few months but with the ‘Calm gift’ you would be back to normal in few days and if you come across the room again you would be unaffected by it” Zoren said.
“Then why did I trust the king so much” Vel asks.
“It was part of the curse but most of it was reflected the princess which is why she so attached to you” Zorn said.
“So, if I didn’t have the Calm gift I would be acting like the princess” Vel said with a shocked face.
“It looks to be our time is up” Zoren said before Vel vision went dark.
-Open field-
When Vel open his eyes, he was standing in the open field where he was stabbed and the sun was rising.
“He didn’t answer my question” Vel stomp on the ground and thought for a while.
“Let kill them” Vel said as he headed back to the palace.
-A Month later in the King Room-King POV-
When I open my eyes, I noticed a box on the nightstand. “Did she give me another gift?” I thought as Halen hasn’t done this in a while.
When I open the box there was a letter that said: “Have a nice trip -Vel” and the ball of fire engulf the room.
-3rd POV-
“Ah fireworks is the way to start the day” Vel said as he watches the palace fall from a rooftop.
“It time to get back on track with revenge” Vel said before he vanished.
