Fake Princess
CcxxxvIII Chapter
I walked in the footsteps of my two brothers. I looked at Izumi who was walking in front of us with her head several times turned to the right and left checking the surroundings.
Our footsteps got faster when we heard the sound of a very loud falling object. My footsteps came to a halt as I heard the sound of Egil's cries echoing in the hallway of the Castle...
The sound of crying became clearer as I stepped forward. I looked at my two brothers who had raised their swords respectively, their gazes still staring straight ahead with the occasional flick of their heads turned around.
My eyes moved staring at my sword still hanging from my waist. I lifted the handle of the sword until it slipped from the scabbard protecting it.
Our footsteps were stopped by a sharp red stare in the corner of the room. The smell of blood plumped my nose as I stepped foot inside.
The shining torchlight in the wind helped me see a little. The bodies of the Knights who filled the floor increasingly stirred up my entrails, their condition was very alarming.
Some are cut from the top of the waist to the tip of the foot, some are cut off his head, some are only half his head even there are only thighs and arms only.
Organs in humans such as the intestines, even the brain is scattered to the floor. Izumi pushed my body backwards using her arms as the pair of red eyes increasingly walked forward.
I was still stunned as I felt an object flying rapidly past my body, I thrust my head back as a loud crash sounded from behind me. Long time I stared at the wall behind us has been destroyed perforated.
I put my head back on the pair of red eyes, followed by the sound of a big breath coming out near us. I moved my legs back, along with Haruki and Izumi who had been standing with a hand in each of their hands.
"Save my Dad. Please," Egil's cry sounded, I bow my head looking at him with Niel lying on his lap.
"My Lord," Kou whispered in my head sounded.
"Lux, help Egil and Niel there. Did you hear me?" I whispered slowly to him.
"I understand. Leave everything to me" Lux whispered near my ear answering my previous request.
"Kou, come. I need your help," I said back as I felt my strung hair move slowly.
I jumped to the right when a large wooden club covered in nails headed quickly towards the three of us. The sound of the blow was so loud that the floor where we were standing before was destroyed by the hole.
"A disgusting creature," whispered Izumi set her eyes on the creature that only appeared to her eyes.
My body was slightly jolted forward as the sound of a loud punch shattered the ceiling of the room. The rocks that collapsed, fell down one by one very strongly behind me. I turned to move my head, I stared at the fiery red-eyed creature with a sparkling white body that had been standing watching us from a distance.
"Run My Lord. I will tear the body of the lowly creature to you," whispered Kou again ringing in my head.
My footsteps grew faster and faster running through the stone rubble around. Haruki's hand pull on my hand grew stronger when the large door in the room was right in front of us.
We ran down the hall, the faster our footsteps moved as the sound of an avalanche of falling objects grew stronger in the ears. I turned my gaze to Egil who was running with both hands crossed to the chest, I grabbed his hand earlier while I grasped tightly so as not to be released.
As we ran through the castle's main door, the moonlight that fell to the ground illuminated the garden that surrounded us. Haruki stopped her steps followed by her hand grip on me slipping away.
I turned to look at the shadow of Kou's tail coming out of the roof of the Castle, and also saw pieces of ice that tapered filled the walls of the Castle.
"What is that thing?" Tukas Egil with a trembling voice, I turned my gaze to look at him who was blowing air in his other palm.
"Are you okay?" Saying to him.
"I'm kind... Dad," he continued, moving his head to the right and also the left alternately.
"Haruki, help us!" Izumi's voice was heard followed by a very loud scream from inside the castle.
I walked following Egil who had run over to Izumi, turning my gaze to Haruki who had also walked past. I crouched down next to Haruki who had also been squatting beside Niel's head with both of her hands tightly grasping Niel's arms filled with blood.
"Is my dad going to be okay?" The sound of Egil's cry, his eyes looked at Izumi who was wrapped around a long cloth in his father's arm.
"Eitherway. His arm was badly injured, if not treated immediately."
"It's my fault that you didn't try to help me. In fact, even though Dad had managed to kill Uncle earlier," said Egil as he pleased as both hands clasped the pants worn by Niel.
I was bowed when the castle wall suddenly collapsed by itself. Some stone fragments even hit my body, I turned to look at Egil who was still down... The blood on his forehead dripped down on Niel's pants.
"Egil, your head," I said, pointing my palm at his cheek.
"Don't worry about me. Just save my father, please," he said, still bowed as his arm moved to wipe away the blood that had soaked his head.
