Chapter 14 (Return)

Chapter 14 (Return)

At Hakeem’s rebel fortress, Matthew reappeared in front of Hakeem’s throne of skeleton bones.

“Sir, the revival of her is complete.”

“Is she on the way back?”

“I expect her to be here anytime soon.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, the lights in the room flickered as a dark figure rose from the ground, surrounded by shadows of darkness. He was supporting someone in an ice casing, someone familiar.

“Ahhh, my dear Kimberly... Why did you have to die? Why, was it worth it? Please do take place with the mind reconfiguration. Dream Weaver, proceed with haste.”

“I can’t oh exalted leader, I need HER power. Mine alone is not sufficient.”

Giving an exasperated look, Hakeem threw his hands up in the air and sighed.

“Well, well. Guards, fetch her.”

The skeleton guards at the door stormed out quickly, and returned with a girl dressed in garments as dark as a moonless night. She looked exactly like Matthew, but unlike Matthew, her eyes, were glazed over, as if as she had no emotion...

“Millie! Wake up, your brother’s here!” He shook her, trying his best to evoke an ounce of emotion from her, yet she remained as passive as ever. He clenched his fist, cursing Hakeem for putting such a terrible curse on her, making her oblivious to the world. Without her strong magical properties, she would have wasted away already.

“Damn...” Matthew was still waiting for a day, in which Hakeem would foul up, then he would kill him to destroy the curse. But for now, he had to abide by Hakeem’s requests.

Casting a magical circle around the ice casing, he channeled both his and Millie’s power, and worked on the mind reconfiguring the figure, arranging it to what they all had discussed in the first place.

*******************************************************************************************************

Back at Arthur’s castle, Arthur was horrified at what his selfish notions has caused, if he as the King could not control himself, how was he to lead?

The Royal Knights were also a huge mess. Even though the best doctors and healers had tried their best, they still needed time to recover.

Each knight blamed themselves for being so powerless, to be beaten to easily. They all wished to train and to be stronger.

*******************************************************************************************************
After the casting of the spell, Matthew was gasping for air. The spell had taken a lot out of him, as he was afraid of draining Millie of her magical energy.

“It should work fine now, tampering with memories isn’t easy. I need to rest.”

Hakeem laughed a diabolic laugh, and dismissed both him and Millie.

“Now, bring in the one she is supposed to meet, and while you’re at it necromancer, unfreeze her.”

Without saying a further word, the necromancer started to melt the ice, then he proceeded to walk out of the room.

“Well, I had to say, it was pretty remarkable for you to escape that portal, especially with the magic immunity girl, and that mage.”

“What needs to be done, will be done. I merely let myself lose on purpose.” The necromancer smiled, and left the room.

*******************************************************************************************************

The moment her body regained her senses, her head started to hurt...

“Who am I? Where am I? What happened?” Questions were bursting out in her mind. Then there was also this voice, that was very annoying to her.

“Kim! Kim! Can you hear me?”

Kim opened her eyes, and instinctively shielded herself from the glare of the light around her. As vision returned to her, she noticed a tall, muscular figure with his hands around her shoulders.

“Who is he? Am I Kim?”

“Kim, respond please! I’m Reuven! Don’t you remember me?”

Reuven.... The name struck a chord in her jumbled mind. Who was he? He seemed to be very important to her... Who exactly was he?

Haze clearing from her sight, she took one clear look at Reuven, and suddenly everything in her world seemed to fall into place. She loved him, before something had happened to her. And he was the one to save her, was it not?

She threw herself in Reuven arms, smiling as tears of joy streamed down her eyes.

“I knew you would save me... I knew you would. You love me right?”





“Yes, I do Kim.” Reuven’s expression changed from worried to happy, and wore a huge smile on his face. He finally had captured the frozen heart Kim had, and melted it, so that she would only love him.

“Hahahahah. Mind reconfiguration successful, it seems.” The necromancer laughed to the rebel leader.

“Yes Qi Ren, I told you it would work, no matter the risk. Now the King shall be tormented as I take over his lands!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!”

YES YES PEOPLE I HAVE CHANGED THE NAMES AGAIN HAHAHAHA. The last one was Lincoln if you didn’t know. Why has Reuven joined the dark forces? 



Well, some impressive new characters have appeared. What's going to happen next?
To Royal Knights:
Please do tell me what upgrades do you want before you "go for training", as at this rate, your King will be killed within seconds.

Thanks~ (CHANGED VERSION)
