"What are you doing to him?" Zhang asked the Sherpa who entered his palace. With Ara in her arms.
"I did what I should have done" Sherpa replied coldly.
"Don't tell me you lost Ara's memory of Luis"
Zhang stared in disbelief at Sherpa. Love blinded Sherpa's eyes. Love or rather.obsession. Without answering, Sherpa stepped into her room.
The wedding day arrived,
Ara looks beautiful in a wedding dress. With white robes. A long dress dangled with a tail sweeping the floor. On top of her head a snake-shaped tiara was there with its sweetness.
All the servants stared in amazement at their future queen. But Ara's face looked flat with no expression. His eyes are empty. Although he occasionally smiled but that smile was just a forced smile.
"She's really pretty and charming" muttered a few more maids. It made Minze snort furiously. He could not change Sherpa's decision at all.
"If you ruin my marriage. I burned Mago right in front of you"
Sherpa's threat really made Minze not dwell at all. Sherpa never played with his words. While in the upper world busy with their king's wedding. In the mortal world, Luis and the others were preparing to open a portal to the upper world.
"I'm coming" Asha whines to Lucas.
"You stay here" Luis decisively gave the order.
They were already in front of the portal to the upper world that Asha had opened.
"I don't want to be alone" Asha's reply made everyone look up.
"You won't be alone. Soon someone will pick you up" Luis said, full of mystery.
Luis had just finished saying when suddenly one voice echoed in the cave. Along with the emergence of a group of troops. The next second was instantly known as the army of the Demon race.
"You who? Dare to break through our territory?" General Renra, looked at Luis and his comrades with a look of intimidation.
"General Renra...." Asha yells. Renra immediately rounded her eyes seeing her daughter master still alive.
"Princess.are you alive?" Renra was obviously surprised. Within a blink of an eye was able to summon Rakuten to that place.
Luis and the others looked at each other at the Demon King standing before them.
" Asha...are you alive?" Ask Rakuten glazed. Looking towards the princess who was also teary looking towards the father.
"Dad...." Asha ran to hug her father.
"My dear daughter, you're alive. Yunze, he is still alive" Rakuten said as he hugged Asha back.
"You're doing fine. Where have you been all this time. Dad was so sad when you ran away and was rumored to be dead"
"Sorry Dad. Asha ran away because she didn't want to marry the Prince"
"Then how did you survive? They saw you go into that ravine?"
Luis was a little annoyed. Time is wasted here.
"Sorry's interrupting your reunion, Sha. But we have to go now"
Asha instantly released her embrace to her father. Looking towards Luis and the others.
"Wait first! What are you doing here. You entered our territory without permission" Rakuten said angrily.
"And we brought your daughter. So legit dong we come in here. She's your daughter, right?" Hans Ledek.
"Hans, watch what you say!" Aiden fizzed as soon as he heard Hans say.
"Of course she's my daughter. Did you guys arrest my daughter? You guys kept Asha all this time?" Accuse Rakuten.
"No Dad. They were the ones who helped Asha. He was the one who helped Asha when I plunged into the abyss. He brought me back to the mortal world. Because he knows I don't want to go home"
Asha explained to her father.
"Who helped you?"
"Lucas, he helped me"
Lucas nodded respectfully at Rakuten.
"Sha, I'll explain later. Now let us go up first" Luis said.
"I'm coming"
"No!"
"Where are you going? You can't go anywhere" Salak Rakuten.
"Our father must ascend to the upper world. My friend is being held captive by the Sherpa"
"Yes, Sherpa. You knew him?" Asha asked. And Luis smirked meaningfully.
"No. I don't know him" Rakuten said. Makes Luis smile.
"Open Asha's portal" Aiden asked.
"Let me come with them, Dad. Her friend. He was very kind to me during the mortal world" Asha persuaded.
"No! You cannot enter the upper world" Rakuten refused firmly.
"But Dad...
"For so long!" Luis grumbling. Then touch the portal with his hands. Miraculously, the portal opened after Luis held it.
"Can you open the portal?" Hans did not believe it.
"Because I also have blood from the upper world"
"Ba..how can you open it?" Rakuten and Asha see no trust in Luis. The man just smirked.
"We're going up first"
"I'm coming!"
"Tidak boleh! Dan kalian...urusan kita belum selesai. Setelah kalian kembali. Kalian harus menjelaskan semuanya" Rakuten berucap penuh ancaman.
"No problem. Didn't we really need to solve our problems all this time. I think we need to meet to talk about this" Luis said before entering the portal. Followed by another. Leaving Lucas last time went into the portal.
The man looked at the old Asha.
"Be careful. I'm waiting for you"
One remark from Asha's mind went into Lucas's mind. Make the man smile. The interaction of the two makes Rakuten look at each other with Renra. Rakuten can read minds.

Luis and the others, flying in their shoes. Tracing the magnificent white pillars. Continue to the mountain area.
"You found his palace?" Ask Aiden.
"There"
All following the direction Luis flew.
"Leave us" Sherpa said to all the servants in her room to get out of there.
The face of Ara's ayu.
"Is something wrong?" Ara asked. In her mind it was implanted that Sherpa was the man that Ara loved.
"You're beautiful" whispered Sherpa.
Ara smiled knot. Look at Sherpa. For some reason between his mind and heart did not align. His mind tells him that this is the man he loves. But his heart felt empty every time he looked at Sherpa. Something was missing from his heart.
"Give me your hand" Pinta Sherpa. Ara extended her hand to Sherpa. And "crash" one dagger instantly scratched Ara's pulse.
"Aarghhh" Ara grimaced. But the next second a warm feeling flowed in his veins. When Sherpa drained his blood through Ara's veins.
"*I want our marriage to be legal today. I will break the ancient magic that has been holding me all this time" Inner Sherpa looked at Ara who was just*am.
Seeing Sherpa do what he thinks is strange. But again, Ara just fell silent. Not knowing why, he was so obedient to Sherpa.
"I want you to know. If I really love you" said Sherpa then kissed Ara's soft lips. It just stands like a statue. Not move. Neither did returning Sherpa's kiss.
***
The palace hall looks so good. Everyone seemed happy with their king's marriage. Except Mago who can just sit still. Without being able to do anything. Sherpas ruin his internal energy. It leaves a quarter of its energy inside. Making the man just like an ordinary folk without any power.
The whole hall is decorated with red and white flowers. It symbolizes holy love. The atmosphere that was boisterous. Suddenly calm when from the end of the entrance stairs saw Sherpa and Ara who were preparing to enter the palace hall
Zhang occasionally took a breath. Be alert to the surrounding situation. The man knew, the portal door was already opened. But he did not feel at all the aura of Vampires everywhere.
While Sherpa looked at Ara who was standing next to him. Ara's one hand was coiled around Sherpa's arm. There was something stirring within Ara. Makes the woman grimace.
"Fra...Ara...." That one voice kept ringing in his head.
"Who called me?"
Sherpa closed his eyes. Put up protective magic around Ara.
"Nobody can break this marriage. Not even you, Nangmi"
