Flashback Continuation
I returned to my base and saw my staff waiting for me, with wine on the table, so I smiled because I knew we would celebrate tonight.
"Let us celebrate, general!" When one of my staff yelled, I smiled.
Dancvil was also present, and I took the glass in front of me, filled it with wine, and raised it to them simultaneously.
"We'll win again in the next fight!" I yelled, and they yelled back, and we drank the wine.
My staff was conversing, and I was sitting next to Dancvil while drinking.
"Aren't you going to look for a boyfriend?" Dancvil approached me and asked me a question.
"I don't have time for love; I just have to work," I told Dancvil, and he laughed.
"You also don't know what the future holds, so you can't say you don't want to have a boyfriend," Dancvil explained to me.
"I don't want to think about love, don't ask me again because that's my answer now; I'll answer the next time you ask," I told Dancvil, and I grabbed something to eat.
While I was eating, we were surprised to see the king, so I stood up and paid my respects to him.
"I had no idea you were going to have a celebration here; don't you want to have a celebration there in my palace right now?" King Ashe said, and I smiled.
"We're fine here, King Ashe; we're content with our small celebration. You can return to the palace," I responded, and my staff nodded in agreement.
"All right, it's fine with me, I'm leaving," King Ashe said, and as he walked away, Dancvil put his arm around me.
"I feel like the king doesn't care about us; he doesn't know how to get along," Dancvil said to me as I removed his hand.
"I had no idea, and I don't care. I was working for money," I admitted to Dancvil, who laughed.
"Your cold when it comes to men, but you're smart sometimes when it comes to your staff," Dancvil said to me as I looked at him.
"I'll be leaving you now," I said as I went to the food we had picked up; I took it there once I had finished eating.
After that, I drank alcohol, and I felt my heat. My head also hurt, possibly as a result of the alcohol I drank. I opened my eyes and saw the sun's rays hit me; my men were also sleeping, so I got up.
I didn't realize that I was asleep. I got up and looked at King Ashe's palace, I don't know what kind of celebration he did, but I know that he bragged about me again even though I wasn't there.
That's why King Ashe wants me to be there because when he brags about me as his general, that I'm good and has won the battle several times. I ready myself for later in the fight. I also ate breakfast and cleaned myself.
While I was putting on my armor, my men suddenly woke up and were surprised, and they woke up immediately because they noticed that I was putting on my armor. I saw Dancvil eating bread while walking, and I didn't know he was awake.
"I thought you weren't awake yet," Dancvil told me while he was eating his bread.
"I didn't even know I slept last night," I told Dancvil, and I finished putting armor on my body.
I took my daiyi sword and walked out of the base.
"Get ready!" I told my staff, and they acted quickly.
"Are you going to the palace?" Dancvil approached me and asked me a question.
"Yes, I will just tell the king that we are ready to fight now," I told Dancvil, and I was about to walk away, but he followed me.
"Let me come too," Dancvil said to me, and I didn't object to him following me.
I reached the palace, and when I entered there, King Ashe was talking to a king too, so I stayed here at the entrance. Dancvil and I waited for King Ashe to finish talking to the king he was talking to. I don't know where this king is from, but it looks like King Ashe's ally.
"Rose! Come here, don't wait there!" King Ashe called me because he saw me waiting here at the end.
Dancvil and I approached King Ashe and the king with him, and when we arrived there, I paid my respects to them both.
"Is he the one you say the General is good at? This man?" I was surprised because the king who was talking to King Ashe was wrong.
"No! Rose is the general in my army!" King Ashe said, and I suppressed my laughter.
"I don't know that your General is a woman; I'm sorry! The General is all a man, rarely a woman," said the king who was by my side and laughed.
"Dear king, we are ready for battle," I said to King Ashe.
"Okay, then! You are free to leave at any time! And I'm confident you'll win again!" When Dancvil and I left, he told me to stand up.
"As long as he agrees right away, the king doesn't think about it; he has a very different kind of trust in you!" Dancvil said this to me as I noticed a black butterfly fly in front of us.
I halted and looked where it was going; I saw that it was heading to our base, so I quickly walked there. I smiled when I arrived at our headquarters and saw that my staff was ready.
"We're going to start our formation," I said to my staff, laying out the map and explaining our formation.
We left our base after I finished saying that, rode our horses, and then rode it. I'm sad because I saw a black butterfly, and I'm afraid I won't win this battle.
We arrived at the location where we would fight the Lotase Army; when we arrived at the Apa Place area, I saw many Lotase Army soldiers.
"Can we handle them?" Dancvil inquired, and I smiled.
"We can handle anything, and we can do this," I said to Dancvil, and we all dashed forward until I signaled with my hand that my men had already fought.
"You're the one which our king says is strong!" According to the man, the General appeared to be large and wielding a wand. Please don't tell me he's a wizard!
I braced myself for a fight, and he charged at me, and I ready my daiyi sword, but I was surprised when he used his wand, so I spat, and I noticed blood on my lip.
I began to get frustrated, so I used my electrical power to encircle my daiyi sword. I fought again, but I always fell and was mocked by the man who was my opponent, who was a wizard.
"You're only strong when you're up against a mortal man; when you're up against a fellow wizard, you lose!" The General told me, and then he shocked me with his wand, causing me to scream in agony.
"Rose!" When I heard Dancvil yell, I signaled him not to help me with my expression.
"I can kill you! I'm not a weakling! And I'm not going to lose!" I sighed at the general mage and unleashed all of my wizard power with my daiyi sword, and he laughed because my ability did not affect him.
When the general mage charge at me kicked me, I tried to block his spinning kick, but he still hit me. I jumped away and vomited blood; is this the end of me? Is this the extent of my wizarding abilities?
"You've come here to die!" When the lotase mage general told me, he stabbed me in the heart.
I cried out in agony, and when the lotase mage general smiled at me, I noticed a purple light in my heart. I tried to remove his sword but couldn't, so he left, and he removed the sword himself, leaving me with pain in my chest.
"Your time is up. You lose," The Lotase general said to me, and I was unable to do anything because my wound was deep.
I smiled as I saw Dancvil running towards me; I was lying here looking at the sky. I never expected to lose; this was my first loss and my last day.
"Rose! I'll heal your wound!" Dancvil said, and I stopped him.
"I'm just a mortal; don't treat me like that; mortal life is short; don't waste your power on me," I told Dancvil, and he couldn't believe it.
"When I resurrect, you will be in charge of my daiyi sword. Please return this sword to me because it is mine," I told Dancivil, and then I saw my daiyi sword light up and then vanish.
"Where's that going?" Dancvil questioned.
"In your place in the akaze hidden place," I said, struggling to breathe because my heart was hurting badly.
"Leave and don't return to the palace; I know you'll be the one to blame by the king because you're the second highest to me," I said, my eyes dimming.
I smiled as I closed my eyes and took my final breath.
End of Flashback
"I didn't prepare well because I didn't know I'd be fighting a wizard," I admitted to Zero and myself that night.
"Would you like to eat dinner?" I questioned Zero, and I noticed that he was sad.
"If only I had been there, I would have saved you right away," Zero said, and I laughed.
"I used to be cold, so it was difficult for you to recognize me that day," I explained to Zero as I slowly stood up from the bed.
"Yes, it's impossible. I don't even know if I'm human, maybe I'm just that young, but I'm not that werewolf, of course," Zero said, and we went down.
We sat down on the chair as soon as the food was ready, and we started eating right away. While we were eating, Zero and I were quiet; the four beasts and Jaja used to be here loudly.
What should Jaja do now, given what she has already done? When I was done eating, Zero stood up and put the dishes and tray away. I smiled as if he was preparing for fatherhood.
"Are you waiting for me?" Zero questioned.
"Yes, so you can help me move up to the bedroom," I said to Zero, who smiled at me.
The helpers were taken aback because Zero washed the dishes, then approached me, assisted me in walking, and I held my stomach as I ascended the stairs carefully.
When we got upstairs, Zero forced me to sit on the sofa, and I wondered what he would do; he took a book, and I waited for him to sit next to me. He sat down next to me, took a piece of paper, opened the book, and drew a bird on the paper.
"What are you doing?" I inquired to Zero.
"I just want to rest," Zero said, and I used my strength to move the bird he drew on the paper.
Zero was taken aback, and I laughed because I had just used my power to fly it; can I still create a white butterfly? I closed my eyes and tried to use my wizard power, but I failed.
"What are you doing, Azura? You know you're pregnant," Zero said, and I felt sad.
"I can't use my immortal power because I no longer have it, and I also can't use my wizard power because I'm pregnant," I explained to Zero, who tapped me on the shoulder.
"That's fine; the important thing is that you're okay and our baby is healthy," Zero said, and I smiled.
"Thank you, Zero, but did you know I wondered if I had a lot of past life before I became immortal?" I said to Zero, the only thing I remembered was that my name was Rose before I became immortal, so that's all I knew.
"Why can't you ask Dancvil? He was with you before. Maybe he already knew your other past life," Zero said, and I realized he was right. Dancvil might have known my other past life.
"I'll call Dancvil with the daiyi sword tomorrow; I want him to talk to me," I told Zero, and he nodded.
"I'll know your other life again, and maybe you had a boyfriend in your previous lives, you know I know that," Zero said, and I laughed because what he said was so impossible.
"We don't know because it's been a long time, and I'm not sure if you're a werewolf or an immortal," I explained to Zero.
"Tell me when you're tired so that you can have a good rest," Zero instructed, and I nodded.
Zero did something else on the paper, but then I heard a noise outside and got up.
"What's the problem?" Zero asked, but I went to the window, and when I peeked out, I saw Jaja staring at me.
"Jaja," I murmured.
I slowly exited the room and made my way downstairs.
"Azura, be careful when you go down," Zero said, and when I came out of the palace, Jaja was standing at the palace's entrance.
"Jaja? What happened? What's the reason for your tears?" I inquired to Jaja.
"I saw Skyler..." I was taken aback by what she said.
"How? The four beasts are already gone," I'm curious, as I said to Jaja.
"Skyler didn't know who I was, and it appears that they are alive, but they were just ordinary demons," Jaja explained.
"It's impossible, Jaja! They are dead. They sacrifice their life to Zero. Impossible! How did that happen?" I asked Jaja.
"I also don't know, sister, maybe they just gave all their power and half their life to Zero, and they are still alive, but they were just ordinary," Jaja told me, and I still can't believe it. How was that possible?
"You should ask Dancvil; he's the oldest, and I'm sure he knows something," Zero advised me.
