"Haha, after a long time, this Bulgaar is back. Hmph! Even death can't stop me." said the figure, speaking from its two mouth it had a unrecognisable eerie voice.

"My precious companion, did you miss me?"

Bulgaar softly touched his axe and wiped away its dust and rust. The gem responded with a wave of shining light throughout the axe.

"Oh, hoh, hoo, look at you. You can even respond to me now. But my companion, it seems someone did some dirt on you."

As he surveyed the surface of the red gem, he noticed a slight stain. It couldn't be seen normally, but by focusing with his four eyes, Bulgaar saw it.

As Bulgaar said this, the gem suddenly shone and cast a light of illusions, revealing the figure of Blanco digging up the crystal and axe from the ground.

The illusion showed how Blanco fell from above, curiously dug up the axe, and then tried to remove the gem from it.

"Hmph, a fool," muttered Bulgaar.

In the next moment, the illusion showed how Blanco lost interest in the gem as its shine faded and how he climbed out of the hole, passing through the skeleton.

Watching this last part, Bulgaar's face suddenly twisted into pure anger.

Raghh!

An earth-shaking roar echoed through the air from Bulgaar.

"That puny little bastard! How dare he step into the almighty Bulgaar's body. Haa, this cannot do. I planned to return to my king as soon as possible, but before that, I have to teach this little freak a lesson."

"Show me where he is," he commanded. From the gem in the axe, a ray of light fell upon the ground, highlighting the tiny footsteps of Blanco shining in the dark. Following the steps, Bulgaar began to advance.

In the dark space of Blanco's consciousness, his figure floated through the empty darkness.

Stretching his hands and legs, he moved them like swimming, speeding up his floating.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

"Haha, this is fun," said Blanco, turning around and flipping upside down. Doing that, he closed his eyes, feeling the momentum.

In the nest of the frost makers, a slight smile appeared on the face of the sleeping Blanco. Beside him, on one side, slept the little female one, and on the other side, the fat one.

At that moment, in his sleep, the fat one moved his paws as if running and rolled around, ending up on Blanco's body.

Crash!

In the forest, a large tree was crushed down, and stepping through it, Bulgaar emerged.

"What has my king been doing all these years? How can a place like this still exist? Where is the reign of darkness of my liege?"

A number of questions popped into Bulgar's mind as he advanced through the forest, making him more irritated.

"Ugh! I have to hurry this up," Suddenly, from behind Bulgaar's back, two pairs of wings began to grow. The dark mist surrounding him rose up and intensified as it was sucked into the wings that were materializing.

Within a few minutes, a deep, dark pair of wings fully materialized from the back of Bulgaar.

Whoosh!

With a swing of his wings, Bulgaar flew up through the air. Once above the whole forest, he looked through the red gem of his axe.

Looking out over the forest, a certain place shone through the gem to Bulgaar's eye. Seeing it, Bulgaar's expression turned ecstatic.

"Found you, you little freak."

Whoosh!

Through the air, Bulgaar flew swiftly toward the tree where he saw his target. While heading in that direction, he passed an unusually large tree.

In the space, suddenly a golden-colored ray appeared, right in front of Bulgaar's path, and moved forward like a sword's edge.

Boom!

The giant golden sword slash echoed loudly throughout the forest, shaking the whole place, and illuminated the whole path where it went, like daylight.

Even the ground below it cracked and became crushed.

"Arghh!" Bulgaar screamed as he fell down, his wings rapidly vanishing, and most of his body being damaged to the point where his skeleton could be seen on the outside.

Thud!

His axe, having been loosened from his hand, landed right in front of his face, and looking at it, he saw his own reflection from the gem's surface.

"My face, how is this possible?"

His face completely vanished, leaving only his skeleton behind.

From above space a golden shine fell upon the ground, catching Bulgar's attention. He lifted up his head and looked toward the source of the light.

Through the space, a figure began to materialize. The figure was divine, a golden aura filling its body, and it had no other feature except for a human-like but not exactly shaped form. The inside of the body was completely filled with a divine golden aura.

"A guardian, but why?, Is someone like this be in here?"

The appeared figure lifted up one of its hands and pointed its finger toward Bulgaar. In the next moment, a golden-colored beam blasted from the figure's fingertip toward Bulgaar.

"Agh!" Bulgaar hurriedly picked up his axe and held it in front of him.

Bang!

The golden beam landed on the axe, and it managed to hold it for the time being.

"Why is a guardian that's supposed to protect the forest attacking its own inhabitants... unless... there's something more valuable than the whole forest has to be here, something like spirit blossom."

Crik!

Through the axe, cracks began to appear.

"Shit, I don't have much time. I have to inform my king about this."
