The Crown's Mundane

Chapter 34: Get to bed.



"I was thinking, I could tell alvah about his weaknesses so far the ones you've told me, it would be beneficial to him"...she suggested.

"Yes you should. Perhaps he isn't aware of it, he shouldn't be ignorant.

I don't know if you could start your training today"....he thought.

"I'll start tomorrow... she said. I'll use today to brief alvah".

"On what?"....he asked glaring at her.

"Just the weakness thing, I already promised you okay, she assured him, she wouldn't spill. Besides if he finds out one day, I will not be responsible".

"He will eventually find out, but from you". Ghazan said.

"I'm not telling him"... she refused.

"When did you figure it out, why didn't you tell me, have you been lying to me, answer me Zillah"...she portrayed how alvah would react at her

"I don't want to be in the situation of being dumb".

Ghazan laughed,

"I see you fear alvah this much".

"Ha, I didn't get to where I am now safely".

"It is evening now, you go home, I'll take my leave"...he disappeared slowly.

"Bye"...she said waving till his figure was out of sight.

She teleported to her room, "Alvah", she said his name.

it isn't safe for me to teleport there, she thought.

Alvah appeared.

"Oh my goodness, thank God you are here"... she sounded happy.

"He looked at her, why?, what happened?"

"I have something I was meaning to ask you"...she said.

He walked to the bed and laid down on it.

"But first, how did you know I wanted to see you?"...

"I didn't know, I chose to come".

He looked at her, "don't make a mistake to teleport to Tartarus, the day you do, pray that no one is present".

"I wouldn't come up with a lie on the spot for you, I would only save myself, I'm warning you".

"Okay, I wouldn't make that mistake. You... she climbed the bed, have you ever thought if you have a weakness".

"Yes, why?"... he asked.

"Well can I please know them"..., she pleaded squeezing her fingers.

He looked at her hand, "Why the question all of a Sudden?...", he was curious.

"Well I'm thinking, perhaps if we meet with that kind of a situation, I would know what to do"

He began,

"my first weakness is obviously you, he pointed at her.

Second, physical confrontation especially without my powers, repulsion, hindrance, fear and death.

Probably more than that, I'm yet to find out".

"Fear..." she asked.

"I will not explain that now".

"Okay,

This repulsion, how is it a weakness,"...she asked.

"For example, he explained,

let's use animals, he stated, if a cat raises an attack on you, but it's being repelled, the damage on the cat would be minor, compared to that of a lion when been repelled, it's damage on his would be severe.

if you were about to harm someone with your katana and your attack was repelled on you, it wouldn't be as dangerous as mine when repelled on me.

Imagine if I was about to burn the person to ash and it was repelled on me, I would die a useless death".

She laughed hard.

He looked at her. "If i die you sure will die to".

Her smile disappeared.

"Well for me, I don't think I have any weakness apart from you"...she said.

"I'm not your weakness"...he said looking at her.

She said,

"when you fight or get into trouble and harm yourself, I feel the same pain too though only a little, depends".

"At least, I can heal, because of you I don't even get to know pain, because any small injury, Zillah. I'll begin to heal myself.

What if I didn't have healing ability what would you do then?...." he asked.

"Then you too would be cautious, because the fact that you can heal yourself, any danger you are in, you're not scared.

Besides, how did you get healing powers, I don't think your dad has it?".

"It's probably my mom"...he guessed.

"When is my second evaluation"..she asked.

"I have no idea, but you are not training, I don't see improvements. Are you sure I shouldn't give you my power?..." he offered again.

"Nope, I don't want it"...she rejected

"You know I'm giving you a choice, the next time I'll ask you, you'll wake up the next morning breathing out fire"...

he opened his mouth and fire came out.

She shivered, but asked,

"Why do you want me to have fire power Soo badly".

"It's part of my promise of protecting you, and also it's better when we both have fire than you having air".

"Before I forget to ask you, something happened earlier this morning, I want you to say something about it".

She came down from the bed.

"Keva was acting very strange, and all of a sudden she has amnesia but for the period the event took place, how and why?...."

"Pretence..." he said In a flat tone.

"What?"... no, she shouted.

He looked at her.

"This is serious, she even poisoned daivik by stabbing him with a poisonous dagger, he was ill for the past days".

"Is he okay?"..., he asked.

"Yes, wait what?,...you expect him to still be on bed by now".

*Yes, maybe".... he replied.

"I know you don't like daivik, but it was a critical situation, he must have been taken to the Healers for treatment.

Everyone wonders were poison could have come from in Elysian".

"Just because Elysian is safe doesn't mean there isn't danger Zillah".

She remembered what Empyreal Ghazan told her, that's similar to what he said.

She continues,

"But then after the incident, it was like she never knew about what happened".

"Did you report to Omna"... he asked.

"No daivik said we shouldn't".

"I don't like that guy".

"He's keeping keva safe"..., Zillah said defending daivik.

"From what, punishment, that she deserves, she almost killed a celestial, isn't that evil.

"If he wasn't taken to the Healers, wouldn't he be dead, will you choose to stay quiet and live with a murderer because daivik said so"...

"It's not like that, I and Aeron didn't want to stay quiet"...

"I like that guy".... he said.

"What I want to to do is see if we can investigate, firstly where the poison could have come from and secondly, how she had a sudden amnesia".

Alvah said,

"firstly, poison isn't in Elysian except it is being hidden somewhere but how does she know where it is kept, when even the Healers don't.

Secondly, she might be possessed and when the spirit was gone, she was okay".

"The first one makes sense, but the second one is complicated. How can she be possessed?, If she was then it's an Infernal spirit.".

"What did you think I meant by possessed, is there some sort of good possession"... he asked her smiling.

"Yes, there can be a good possession"... she said.

He replied, "the one, that carries around a poisonous dagger,...still smiling.

"Okay your suggestions are all right, I admit".

"But if we can get a portion of the poison she used, you can tell what poisoned she used from Tartarus".

"I'm not doing..." that he said.

"Why?..." she asked.

"Get to bed"...he said, tapping the bed.

"But"...

"shhhh" he taps the bed once more

Was he not going to go back, she thought.

She walked to the bed, and laid down facing the opposite direction.

He spreaded her hair on the bed, and held her face.

He tried moving her face to his direction, it was stiff. It was like she had glued her face to the bed.

He tried again, it didn't budge,

He teleported to the other side of the bed where her eyes were wide open, she froze up.

"Don't do this again"...., he said smiling at her.

She couldn't move, his beauty had struck her.

She would be lying if she said she hasn't fallen for this guy

He leaned closer to her and whispered in her ears, "I lost to you, and now, I am yours".

Goosebumps crawled all over her skin.

"Don't think I don't know about your feelings and don't hide them".

"Also don't make things harder for me on purpose okay"....he pinched her arm and left. He did that to assure that it wasn't a dream.

She pinched herself again, just incase, she touched her head it was hot, She buried herself in the blanket till she slept off.
