Pov Sisor, Leader of Kadra’s Kingsguard: ．𝘦𝘵
After King Alexander the second leaves for his third visit to Wizards’ Guide, I went straight to my Patriarch’s room still thinking about the things the Black Wizard said.
The current King has always respected and admired his father, but he never knew the hard decisions we had to make in those turbulent times or how his father changed after that.
He was never able to trust anyone other than family after the various transformations that took place, the only people he fully trusts are me who has been by his side since he was a child, and his son the current King.
He himself knew he couldn’t take this Kingdom any further like that, so he abdicated the throne to his blood son, but he never told the secrets that this Kingdom keeps to his son, the secrets he keeps.
After the description of the Seal of Doom that Black Mage spoke, I can almost be sure that she recreates it is right, it means that someone knows certain truths from the past that should not be known to anyone else, besides this person is not someone normal, the Black Magician said that he was someone who should have authority and the right to condemn someone.
Sigh
I climb the tower and enter the room where I look at my Patriarch trying to meditate to make the pain more bearable, only that makes him stop screaming, but he can’t keep it that way forever, it doesn’t lessen the pain either, it just makes his mind better prepared to bear the pain.
There was no one else in the room, I close the door behind me and I feel in the sick chair for the bed while looking at his state, the bed is soaked with sweat and blood, his face is pale and his Aura is completely suppressed within him, perhaps it is another effect of the curse.
“Dad looks like we won’t be able to fight this time.” (I)
“Unlike those turbulent days, we are not facing someone normal, I knew that one day we would be punished for this, I just wish you had listened to me at the time to avoid this situation.” (I)
Sigh
I told him that breaking a Taboo would one day bring retribution, but in the situation we were in back then that was the safest option, but it wasn’t the right option.
I look at the man in the bed and everything we’ve been through together comes to mind, how we trained together, how we grew stronger together, how we fought together, how I swore allegiance to him the day I agreed to become a Vampire and the day that your child was born.
His tears weren’t tears of happiness that day his son was born, they were of guilt, he didn’t even dare hold his son in his arms for days for the blood he knew was on his hands.
“I swore to be by your side until the end no matter what and I intend to keep that oath.” (I)
———–
I stayed for hours inside the room sitting in that chair with my eyes closed waiting, I knew it could take days or weeks for what I expected to happen, but when I felt a fluctuation of energy in the barrier around the tower where I was, I knew that the wait it was over.
I open my eyes and see a shadow emerge from the bedroom window, the shadow expanding on the wall beside the window taking the shape and size of a door.
From inside the Shadow comes a young white-skinned man who has short hair, fierce eyes, and a strange horn combined in the same red color, he wore a leather suit and stood beside the shadow while a beautiful woman with dark skin, red hair, and eyes of different colors wearing a green and red leaf maker dress, this woman is on the other side waiting like this with the previous young man.
Soon comes out a beautiful red skinned woman with black hair and horns who has the same eyes as the previous woman, her eyes were intense and disturbing which caused strangeness with the gentle smile she had, she had wings and a tail that could be used in combat, then another woman came out of the shadow next, this new woman had the same eyes, white skin, and pink hair pulled back in a ponytail.
These two young women also stand side by side as a brown-skinned, red-haired, horned, and crystal-scaled child with the same different colored eyes as the previous women, with an appearance that I was not able to distinguish their gender.
There was a red monster cub on one of her shoulders while she had a Fairy with dark skin, red hair, and the same eyes and her other shoulder.
These people have so many similarities that I would regret that they are all from the same family if it weren’t for the Fairy who shouldn’t have so many similarities with people of other races as well.
These people were all looking straight at me when they came out of the shadow portal, but strangely the intense-eyed Demon woman had been looking straight at my Patriarch ever since she appeared.
I could tell they all had a similar level of strength to mine, but my instincts told me that the young man who came first, the child, and whatever I’m sensing still lurking in the surroundings are stronger than I am.
A proof of this is that they knew I was here and still entered without fear, I think I should thank them for not having caused the fraud confusion to get here but to appear in a reserved way.
It wasn’t difficult to find the leader among them, all I had to do was pay attention to the behavior of everyone around the child, I soon realized that he was a Vampire, so maybe his appearance doesn’t reveal his real age.
“You knew we were coming, right?” (enemy leader)
“I assumed so, but I figured we’d have more time.” (I)
“Why not call the guards outside?” (enemy leader)
“They’re weaker than I am, if I’m not able to beat you, then they couldn’t last more than a few seconds.” (I)
“I won’t let them waste their lives like that.” (I)
“Then why are you here.” (enemy leader)
“Because I swore to defend him and I will until the end.” (I)
“N… no… don’t interfere… Sisor!” (Alexander)
“I’m sorry to have to disobey you for the first time, but I can’t let that happen…” (I)
Before I can do anything the young man who leaves first appeared beside me without me even noticing and put his hand on my shoulder, at that moment I felt my whole body immobilized by an Aura far more powerful than anything I have ever seen, I was not even able to speak.
The other invaders walked towards my Patriarch calmly as he looked at him, his body shaking with pain.
“No… I didn’t expect… to end… like this…” (Alexandre)
