Chapter 71
OUZE PALACE**
Chuyun’s eyes opened all of a sudden and she spat blood out of her mouth.
Her visions don’t lie, she could actually see Kai coming in with his armies and she could see blood shed, lots of blood shed.
“Your highness” A maid rushed in immediately towards her and held her shoulders
“Your highness, are you okay?” The maid asked worriedly.
Chuyun woke up from her short trance and faced the maid.
“Call Daiyu for me, right now” she ordered and the maid went to do as told immediately.
A few minutes later, Daiyu stepped in with angry looks, she was actually trying to fix the magic mirror that broke a few days ago so she could monitor what Kia was doing with that ugly bride of his but all thanks to Chuyun, she was distracted!
“Sister, you called for me!” Daiyu puffed angrily and went to sit beside Chuyun.
“Summon black lake,” Chuyun replied.
“But..
“Now!” Chuyun cut her off in a loud tone.
“Okay okay” Daiyu scoffed and closed her eyes.
She summoned black lake who came to her immediately.
“Why have the crown princess..
“Is it true? The war is today right?” Chuyun cut black lake off.
Black lake was silent for a while, while Daiyu looked surprised.
“Yes but that’s not even what you should be worried about,” black Lake replied.
“What else should I be worried about?” Chuyun asked, feeling somehow scared and black lake let out a loud scream.
“Can you just talk already!!” Chuyun finally snapped at Black lake.
“Xia Meilin is also back and she’s also coming to have her revenge today” Black lake dropped the news.
Chuyun couldn’t feel her legs anymore so she fell on her throne while Daiyu turned to look at black lake with widened eyes.
“Are you sure about what you just said?” She asked.
Black lake just screamed and disappeared off.
“Oh no” Daiyu gasped and rushed out of the room to tell the guards to finally get prepared while Chuyun was still lost in her thoughts.

DEMONS KINGDOM**
“Are you all set?” Harmony, who was dressed in a tough general outfit, asked the soldiers and they all nodded.
“Remember this is a battle between life and death, it’s either we die or lose” she added and the soldiers all shouted a yes, agreeing with her.
While Harmony was still given instructions to the guards, Draco stepped out of his room with a no playing look on his face.
His eyes were dark, the stones on his forehead grew thicker, his swords were emitting some dark smoke and his dragon was at his side.
“Lord Draco” they all bowed but he didn’t even care about greetings now.
“Prepare my horse” he ordered and two guards rushed out, in no time, they came back with a horse that looked as dark as him.
Draco climbed the horse and the dragon flew closer to him.
“Listen up everyone, this is a battle between life and death, it’s either we win or we die!” He repeated what Harmony had just said and they nodded immediately.
“Yes Lord Draco” the soldiers agreed and Harmony stared at Draco who wasn’t even looking at her.
“Even if I’ll have to die then I’ll definitely die doing something for you” she said in her mind before going to climb her horse too.
“Let’s go” Draco called the orders and they all rode out of the Ouze palace.

Meilin found herself back in the desert. Now she was going to take a journey to the Ouze palace and fight her battles herself.
She doesn’t care if they were going to kill her, the point is. She must kill Chuyun and Daiyu and make sure the King and queen are finally free from the bondage that her evil sisters placed upon them.
Meilin was about to stand her journey when her chest suddenly hurt and before she knew it, she spat out blood.
She slowly went down and shut her eyes tight.
What happened to her, was she…
She closed her eyes as she recalled herself studying in the room two days ago when she saw Sapphire throw something like a powder from the small space of the door.
Sapphire!! That b*tch!
She dared to poison her but it was a good thing that Meilin had regained her powers so she can just heal herself but this might actually weaken and take her time.
Damn that Sapphire! Damn her!!

JADE HEAVENS, DEN’S ROOM**
Den smiled with his eyes still closed as he recalled what happened between him and Gianna last night.
With that smile, he turned to his side and tried hugging her but frowned when he didn’t feel anyone laying by his side.
His eyes went open and truly, there was no one by his side.
“Anna” he called as he sat up.
Where did she go, maybe she is inside the bathroom. He thought and stood up from the bed before finding his way to the bathroom but to his dismay, she wasn’t there.
“Anna” he called fearfully.
Last night wasn’t an illusion so where did she go.
Didn’t she tell him that she would never leave or did she lie to him??
Den shook his head and immediately looked for his clothes to get dressed. Maybe Anna was exhausted after last night so she went to look for some food to eat.
He thought but just as he was about to take his upper clothes, his eyes caught a letter that was on top of his shirt.
He took the latter and opened it with shaky hands.
It was from Gianna and his heart, skipped a lot of beats, did she leave?
He opened the latter and began reading with teary eyes.
~ I’m really sorry for lying to you last night Den, I was not Anna but Xia Meilin and I needed you just to break my curse. Finally I can have my revenge and I promise to leave you after this, don’t worry I’ll leave your Anna for you too and you’ll finally be with her again for good. I’m sorry for barging into your life and causing you pain, I’m really sorry. I hope after I die, you’ll find it in your heart to forgive me~
Xia Meilin.
The letter fell from Den’s hands and he grabbed his shirt and put it on then grabbed his sword and rushed out immediately.
As he was running out, he bumped into Fen and Boi.
“Hey your highness” they called but he didn’t reply to them, he just ran past them.
“You go to his room and check what’s wrong, I’ll go after him” Fen said to Boi who just nodded.
Fen ran after Den and Boi ran to Den’s room.

OUZE PALACE**
“I think the demons have arrived,” Daiyu whispered to Chuyun when she heard a loud bang on the Ouze gate.
“Let them, have you gathered all our soldiers?” Chuyun asked.
She was also dressed for the war.
“Yes,” Daiyu nodded.
“Good then let’s not get afraid, remember that we did this once and won, there’s nothing wrong with winning twice” Chuyun smirked.
“You’re right sis, we will always excel,” Daiyu agreed.
The demons successfully broke the gates and entered looking ready to fight.
“Kill everyone you see!” Harmony ordered and they all rushed in.
Seeing that they had entered, Chuyun faced the Ouze soldiers immediately.
“Go now and don’t stop until you win” she ordered.
The Ouze soldiers and the demons soldiers all ran towards themselves and in no time, blood was being shed.
Harmony looked at Draco and he nodded at her then she flew out from her horse and went straight to face Daiyu who began fighting back so it was already Draco and Chuyun that were left.
What was happening between them was a tough staring contest, no one refused to blink back.
It was Chuyun who blinked first and glared hard at them then seethed her teeth angrily but a smirk appeared on Draco’s face instead.
“Crown princess Chuyun or should I say Chuyun, long time no see” he smiled.
Chuyun garnished her teeth with the way he disrespected her and she immediately flew up from her horse then charged at him.
Draco was fast enough so he bent backwards, dodging her moves and he immediately flew off from his horse.
He brought out a sword and drew it open.
“I should have used this sword to kill Xia Meilin but don’t worry, I’ll use it for you instead” he muttered and moved to her.
The both of them began having a fierce fight. While they were fighting, Draco’s dragon had gone to the palace and began burning it, causing the maids and guards that were hiding to run.
“That’s right Levi, burn down everywhere, kill everything and everyone and make sure that this palace would be out of existence like how they had destroyed the demon’s kingdom in the past” Harmony smiled.
Daiyu gritted her teeth and added more pressure into fighting her.
“I took you as my personal maid and treated you well but look at the way you repaid me!” Daiyu said angrily.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“To hell with you” Harmony spatted and kicked Daiyu’s stomach hard, making her stagger backwards.
“B*tch” Daiyu sneered and came back to attack her immediately.
The war kept going on and it looked really fierce, the palace was on fire and people were really dying.
Meanwhile

DEMONS KINGDOM**
“I knew you have always hated me from the start, right from the first day you cought me when I was about to fall of the staircase, I also know you were given a mission to kill me well here I am, instead of killing everyone why don’t you just do kill me!!” She yelled in tears.
Zachary slowly pulled his sword and pointed it at her.
“Your tears do not move me,” he said coldly.
“And I’m not planning to make it move you, I’m not crying because I want you to pity me but I’m crying because it’s my heart that’s crying, you have no idea what I’m feeling right now” she said, shedding more tears.
“I don’t care,” he replied and she nodded.
“If you really don’t care then prove it by killing me right now, I’m waiting!!!” She yelled and next thing she felt a sharp pain.
She slowly looked down to see that Zachary had stabbed the sword deep into her chest, it was even coming out from the back.
Nevaeh’s eyes widened in horror, she was behind Gianna and she could see the sword.
“Anna!!!!!” Nevaeh cried out.
*
Nevaeh suddenly woke up from her nightmares, breathing heavily as she recalled what happened.
Anna, her best friend got killed by this wicked Demon and she vowed to avenge her but what the hell was she doing?
She has married the man that killed her best friend, she was even getting attracted to him and to make it worse she had actually slept with him.
Tears came out of her eyes and she immediately sat up, hugging her knees tight.
“Anna I’m sorry, I failed you, I’m so sorry” she began crying.
She didn’t even know why she had to wake you with these nightmares but she was really angry with, was it Draco or Zachary now? She didn’t care but she was really angry.
While hugging herself, the dagger her brother gave her yesterday suddenly fell from her clothes and she picked it up with both hands as she recalled what he told her.
“You can also switch it from a dagger to a sword, once you stab Draco with this then consider him dead within just three minutes” Rennie had said to her yesterday night and she looked at the dagger immediately.
She immediately stood up from the bed and rushed out of the room. The moment she came out, a black bird flew past her and dropped a letter on the floor.
Nevaeh bent down and picked the letter.
If you want to kill Draco then come to Ouze palace, there’s a huge opportunity waiting for you
Nevaeh didn’t think twice before running out of the demon’s kingdom.

BACK TO THE OUZE PALACE**
With a strong force, Draco pushed Chuyun far away from him and at the same time, Daiyu stabbed Harmony and pushed her far away from him.
She drew her sword and began running towards Draco.
She doesn’t care if she can’t have him anymore, she just wants to kill him now so it’ll be better if no one has him at all.
But just when she got to him, he turned to her and kicked her hands hard, making her hands to lose contact with her sword then he stabbed her hard.
Straight on the chest and making sure he goes a lot deeper.
Daiyu stared at him with an unbelievable look and blood came out of her lips.
“You..” She managed to speak.
“I never liked you” Draco shook his head and pulled the sword out of her.
“Daiyu!!!” Chuyun screamed in horror as she watched her sister’s body go down.
Her mouth and her eyes widened as if she couldn’t believe what had just happened then out of anger, she flew up and drew her sword with a great force.
She began coming towards him with an incredible speed that Draco was really taken back.
He didn’t know how to dodge it but he didn’t even have time to think about it when another force pushed her back, making sure she landed far away.
When Draco looked up to locate where that force had just come from, he couldn’t believe his eyes.
It was Gianna and their eyes met.
Isn’t she… Isn’t she supposed to be dead?
