A group of crows flying from the branch of the leafless tree set aside death, from the radiance of the deep red moonlight. Plied the earth with darkness and voidness. The moon stained with the blood of betrayal turns the atmosphere into a warning to man.
The human screams that were seen calling out the name of a priest sounded so alarming. But the figure they believed to be the temple priest was not present.
Lucy stood still looking at this mess. Actually since he returned to Kendric's residence. He was always in a dream that gave him an abstract picture, it can be said that this dream is a continuation of his dream which showed a beautiful woman who was burned on charges of being a witch by humans.
And again the existence of Lucy is not seen by anyone, except the figure of a woman who died horribly with the name Robin. Looks like the figure of Goddess Vernitysha who became the previous Robin is trying to convey something to Lucy.
But he did not understand at all the purpose of this dream and what happened here. Because this dream is still not perfectly arranged, and the picture is increasingly blurry.
Especially when the black figure embraces Vernitysha's body, his red jeweled eyes look so familiar but still not confirmed his figure because it is not clearly visible.
"Where is your map? We killed that evil witch!"
"Please! Help u! It's really painful."
It's like they got karma. The black-eyed figure of the blood gem, killing them so viciously that explosions and destruction were everywhere. Lucy is unable to deduce how early this conflict came to be because the scene scane always looks when the woman wants to be burned.
"Recorder! "
"Dad, mom! Help me!! "
"No! Don't kill us-Argh!! "
"Run to save yourself kalia-akh!"
Lucy covered her ears. she was tired, she had really been unable to bear this dream. The sound of explosions, cries of forgiveness to shrill requests for help, sounded very strong in his ears. It's as if they're becoming a rhythm to damage Lucy's hearing
Lucy is frustrated by this vague dream. What does this woman have to do with her? He had enough to be dizzy with the condemnation of another figure from himself named Vasellica, now he still has to solve the puzzle of the robin figure as well.
"Dad, hiks...., mother! "
"Oh god please save us."
"Run, that monstrous monster will kill-egh!"
Lucy still kept her ears shut by clutching her hair. He kept shouting to ask for an end to this terrible dream!
"Please stop," Lucy looked terrified as she continued to be stuck with this dream every night.
"GO! DON'T USE ME WITH THIS DREAM-KyaaaA!! "
Lucy shouted loudly as if stressing to the woman to stop all abstract clues. Lucy slowly opens her eyes and she seems to start to calm down a little, when she realizes that she has really woken up from the terrible dream.
He looked at his room which was a little messy with various kinds of embroidery tools and wool threads and knitting threads scattered everywhere.
Lucy spent all her time here by embroidering. He intended to give handkerchief embroidery as a gift if Kendric had returned, but it seems he even overslept when continuing his embroidery and it was already very night.
Molie is seen sound asleep on his bed. With a feeling of fatigue, Lucy got up from her sitting position she went to wash her face in the bathroom. Because he woke up sooner so Maidery could not help him to bring a cup of water to wash his face.
Lucy comes out of her room, trying to calm herself down by walking down the street at dawn. Behold, this territory was too vast for her petite self, and this Kingdom was so majestic for a stranger as it seemed, even the Kendric residence castle she occupied was very quiet for her to live in.
It's been two weeks since Kendric's departure overcame an affair. Every morning Lucy always walks down the castle alone without a hand that can lead her through this silence. But at least, every day before dawn Lucy always diligently went to the main eastern ground floor.
Because the area is floating, and half of the castle buildings are uniquely designed without walls. Making a silk cloud float into this Castle to sometimes cover the entire side of the palace.
Even so, at least this makes Lucy feel calm, plus the rising sun that slowly rises to the surface of Apollo-painting an orange over a cotton-thin cloud.
But what makes Lucy more like the view at dawn, is when the part of the moon is still visible on the western horizon, it was as if he was waiting for the arrival of the sun before it finally became faint due to the sunlight that was so dazzling like a jewel.
Lucy walks to the balcony of the palace, following a stretch of red carpet that leads her to the front page. A bright morning sky with some clouds still faithfully gathered in each building and the side of the stairs to the balcony, giving rise to a harmony of atmosphere so soft for him.
When his steps managed to climb the balcony of the palace, Lucy's view again painted disappointment. Because the palace gate will never open while showing the figure of a man who he missed.
"It seems like today, he didn't return either, "
The sun slowly began to rise. The roaring sun awakens several white doves that fly in groups into the lilac sky.
In these two weeks, Kendric has only sent him four letters. Although he was happy, but it still felt lonely, when he could not see also the appearance of the letter writer he was waiting for.
"I don't like to be alone, when you'll be back ..., "Lily leaned against the Castle pillar staring at the sunrise that looked exactly like her golden hair mane.
PRANGS!
Lucy was disturbed by some of the sounds of falling objects and it seemed like the item was also destroyed, what else the sound continued to sound as loud as possible. The curious Lucy, slowly followed the sound, and it was as if her soul and body were led. Lucy's slow-moving steps began to run quickly when she realized the shards were coming from her lover's room.
Because last night she fell asleep, Lucy did not have time to change her dress with sleeping pajamas. So that his run was slightly disturbed due to the dress that was too long, plus he still had to climb the stairs to go to the second floor which was his Mate's room not far from the balcony in front of the palace.
Arriving there, Lucy hurriedly opened the door of the room hoping that the figure she was waiting for had actually returned.
"Nurus ....,"
The soft call that pierced the silence forced Kendric to be immediately aware of Mate's presence. Lucy approaches him, holding out her hand, trying to touch the lover's face to make sure that this man really is Kendric.
"Lucy ...," Kendric's defense collapses in front of his soulmate, he doesn't care anymore about his injuries. All he needed was his female hug to calm his mind at this moment.
"--I'm sorry, I'm late for home."
Kendric fell into Lucy's arms, her thinning consciousness making her have to let go of her longing for now. He had to focus on the poison in his body so as not to further spread.
Lucy who had just regained her senses when she sensed, the presence of a red viscous liquid staining her hands as a result of hugging Kendric-started to panic, and, and try to call the maid or palace guard with the help of magic bells as alarms danger sign.
"Kendric, keep waking up don't close your eyes. Look at me, stay awake my lover ..., "Lily clutches up to Kendric.
"Baginda! " Albert came on time, actually he had been given a signal by Kendric first after arriving at his residence, but it was unexpected that his Mate came to him first.
"Mr Albert, can you help her lie on her bed. I'll try to summon the Alkemish palace."
Albert took over to help lay Kendric on his bed. "Daughter, it would be better if you wait for His Majesty. I'll replace you to call Alchemist."
"All right, and thank you."
Albert nodded and immediately left the residence. Switching to Kendric's condition is increasingly worrisome. Lucy looks terrified, she opens-widens Kendric's shirt and is surprised to see a long, deep cut carved on her chest.
Moreover, a purplish-blue bruise adorned the corner of his wound. This was not just an ordinary sword slash wound, if Lucy looked carefully at this like a huge creature attack wound. How could he come home badly injured.
"Kendric, who's trying to hurt you?" Lucy picked up the wet cloth she had picked up on the table, in order to hold the blood coming out of the gap of her wound.
"There's nothing you need to be afraid of. I'm fine-egh! "
"Be quiet. Save your energy not to say hero sentences like that. Do you think I can't see-you're in a critical state? "
Kendric's body began to show a reaction with some purplish veins starting to look a little clear. Lucy felt like crying to see Kendric trying desperately to endure the pain that burned her body slowly.
"Daughter's greetings," Alkemish came to greet Lucy, then looked towards Kendric. "Your Majesty, let me check you out." An Alkemish, who was brought by Albert, approached to pay attention to his wound.
Lucy clasped Kendric's left hand while waiting for the result. But the look on Alkemish's face was pale, "Baginda, how did you get this poison?"
"What's wrong? What kind of poison is this? Please tell me. " Lily forced the middle-aged man to explain immediately.
"It's the kind of poison made from forbidden magic that severs every nerve of the blood vessels."
Kendric coughed again with a stronger grip on Lucy's hand. It's bad, the condition is getting worse. "So is there anything you can do to make an antidote? "
The Alkemish looked hesitant to convince him but he also had no intention of giving up. "I will try to make it, please give me 3 days Princess."
"I'll help you. Although this takes a long time, I hope the Princess can keep looking after him for a while." Albert proposes to help.
"We'd better go to the treatment room, before the poison spreads." Albert and Alkemish withdraw from Lucy and Kendric.
Three days? it was too long, not even the Alkemish was sure because it seemed to be a very dangerous poison - or even no antidote. Lucy can't see Kendric having to suffer from holding him for days, but is there nothing she can help with?
Ever since Robert summoned Alkemish, Lucy had been trying to heal his wounds with healing magic but no reaction whatsoever instead the poison was running fast.
A cold sweat filled Kendric's face, but Lucy knew Kendric was still calm that this was nothing to worry about.
"Lucy, I'll be fine soon. Robert will find the antidote, you better go back to your room and ask Sylvia to help you clean up, I'm sorry for soiling your clothes with my blood." In the middle of a dim view, Kendric still does not want to show his weak side. Even if it was Lucy.
"I don't have a problem with this blood, but I don't like you trying to pretend, that this isn't a big deal. I know you're trying to hold it in, and as a man it's a shame to show someone."
"But Kendric, just once count on me too. You don't have to be strong in front of me, cry if it's stifling. Shout, if it hurts. I'm your mate, I'm part of your soul don't get hurt alone. I----hiks, I don't want to lose you."
Kendric tried to get up and sit down while wiping away her lover's tears. "Oh no, I didn't mean to worry you, baby. After two weeks, I finally saw you back. Don't show your sadness by looking at me like this. I'll be fine, this wound is nothing. Do you think I'm too weak just because of this poison?"
Lucy shook her head in response, with an increasingly tearful cry.
"So understand, with you not being too anxious and returning to your home, it's also helping me, Lucy."
"Kendric, you don't understand ...."
Lucy won't go and let Kendric hold her alone. Oh, there really is something he can do right now. Kendric needs help but as a man, he won't be able to show his weak side to anyone. Can't you rely on me more.
" Blood, use your blood Lucy ... "
Lucy fell silent, as a voice knocked her mind. It seems that the other side of Lucy's soul is trying to help provide clues to this problem.
Lucy didn't want to think about it twice, if this could help Kendric she would have done it. Lucy walked away from Kendric down the bed, she was seen looking for something, then got a few pieces of broken glass from the vase on the floor.
Lucy grabs him and returns to the position next to Kendric. For a moment Lucy looks doubtful but her mind continues to whisper to believe this way, if it can not heal perfectly but she hopes at least the poison can be stopped.
Lucy tries to slash her hand, but Kendric notices that she prevents the right hand from injuring her left palm.
"What are you trying to do, Lucy." Kendric looks serious, he feels angry if he knows what action Lucy is planning.
"I want to get rid of the poison,"
"By hurting you?"
"Kendric, my wounds won't compare to yours. And also my blood, it has special powers that might lighten its injury."
"No, you can't do it-LUCY-!!"
Lucy would not listen, she forced her hand and quickly injured her own palm before Kendric moved to stop the action. Fresh blood flowed quite a lot, to the point of dripping on a white blanket.
At that time no one will know, that Lucy's actions hurt her to help Kendric. It precisely attracted the attention of the monstrous figure sealed at the bottom of the land of the valley of death.
"You sweet blood this---not to be mistaken, Robin's descendants have returned!"
