King Philip was in a parallel state after he heard all the words . He couldn't talk his throat went dry. Dylan was out, Dylan was out. He needed to find him before his brother begin to suspect something or his wife would never forgive him this time. Eric must never find out that Dylan is out
" That is impossible so it only means someone has her powers." Eric said and looked at Philip
" Yes, we should investigate accordingly." Philip said. This wasn't good for him Eric would definitely begin to suspect him ,he needed to throw him off track. Damian, he would be a nice fit
" But what about them , Gracia is the only one among us who can sense them. With her gone it won't be good for us especially the humans Eric brought in here." Rusford said and stared at Eric he still couldn't make sense of the marriage or why the king approve of the marriage.
" Damian should face punishment for taking this for granted ." King Philip said all of a sudden
" What, are you being serious now , Damian , that's your problem. Listen I don't know what you're planning but right now if those things get loose mimicking our powers growing in numbers it won't be good for us all." Lord Eric said
" Yes but I'm not gonna ignore the fact that Damian missed this very important meeting so he's going to yelgra to get another one, they're scared of tyrants aren't they." Philip said
" You can't control tyrant Philip your son's aren't around." Eric said
" Um if I may, why can't you're sons do it bond with tyrants like the princes did that'll be good right." Rusford said and Eric face lit up
" Really but to do that first you have to tame one how do you think Gabriel did that." Philip said
" Probably with Dylan's help or because they're your sons." Jamie said and they kept quiet for some time
" Fine then Damian is ordered to go into yelgra and bring back a tyrant to .... you know bond with them or tame them." Philip said
" Philip they're unkillable they don't die, Philip but Damian can." Lord Eric said a little unsettled with the order
" So? Let him bond with them, don't give me that look I know you like this." Philip said and Eric rolled his eyes
" It is impossible to tame a tyrant though." Benjamin said
" No it's not Gabriel did it , so Damian can do it too." Philip said. " He'll go there within two days." He decided
" That's not enough time." Eric murmured
" Jamie investigate about Gracia death." Philip said and stood up they stood with him and bowed down as he left
" There that about all of it, don't be like that Damian's capable than you know." Benjamin said and Rusford nodded his head
" Not with a tyrant." Eric said to himself
Tyrants are not beast not demons but something far worse
Born from chaos, fed by suffering, these monsters could never be killed. No matter how many times they were burned, buried or torn apart, they returned, hungrier crueler, more aware.
Their form defied sense , some walked upright like men. But their flesh rippled, wrong and shifting always changing never still, eyes nothing but dark and black. Mouth that whispered in language not meant for sanity
The ground tremble beneath their step, the sky darkened when they scream
To fight a tyrant was not bravery it was suicide.
Death did not want them , time could not erase them.
When you crossed paths with one only two things you can do
Run or pray it doesn't notice you.
Dylan walked back to his room silently , he heard it all . The supreme council meeting , he smiled just as he predicted his father would be occupied , he knew his father suspect it was his doing well he wasn't entirely wrong . Just that he sends Damian to catch a tyrant to distract Eric while he looked for him
" So you ." Dylan said as he walked someone bumped into him. As the person was about to go he felt a sting . Then he knew what the person has done but it was too late. Everything blurred and he fell into darkness
Dylan woke up to find himself tied to a chair . He looked up and saw six men whispering, but he could hear them loud and clear
" Should we kill him." One of them said
" No I heard the king is to send him to yelgra so he's as good as dead already." Another said
" Let's just do what we came here for, did you bring the woman." Another said
Dylan groaned catching his kidnappers attention . They all turned to him
" Prince Dylan how are you feeling." A man said and Dylan recognize him . He was the man whose daughter hand he chopped off. Ryan
" Oh it's you , how is your daughter faring with eight fingers." Dylan mocked. Ryan was so angry he hit him in the head hard . Dylan's vision blurred a little
" I'll kill you but I'm not the one who ordered this stunt so we're going to do something first." Ryan was still talking when a woman came in ." Ah here she is, you see we're all curious why you're suddenly getting married to a human so she's going to do it for us read your mind." Ryan said and was irritated that Dylan didn't faze or anything
Dylan looked at the woman she looked to have lived for close to a million , odd Althreaze didn't live up to a million except royals
" I'll begin now if the king or Lord Eric find out about this it' ll be bad for us ." She said and moved to Dylan and held his head with both hands
" Careful I heard it hurts like hell." Ryan said and smiled
Just as she proceeded to read Dylan. He smiled . The woman looked reading ones mind takes a great deal of effort and it risky for both party involved . Bot something happened she began to trembling making the men startled , her skin began to turn dry and she was bleeding from her nose, eyes , ears . Which was odd prince Dylan was the one who was supposed to be experiencing all these.
She coughed blood but her hands seemed to be stuck on his head, she was trying to pull away but it looks like it was glued there . But no one knows Dylan was doing something extremely dangerous he was making her read her own mind
That is for anyone who attempt suicide . Reading one's mind takes effort and a great deal if powers but reading your own memories was a death sentence
Of course no one knows Dylan made her read hers instead so the woman was at the point of death
Blood grazed down her face, she was panting . Luckily someone cast a spell and she was released instantly, she collapsed choking on her own blood
Dylan looked slowly at the person who cast the spell. It was Collins, though he doesn't know him his eyes twitch how did he do that
If reading ones memories takes a great deal of effort imagine how impossible it is to make someone read their own memories.
But something interesting caught his attention who was this man? How did he counter his spell?.
