1088 Words
At the front of the Darwin Kingdom's gate, were several Knights on horses and on foots. The crest of their flag were having a dragon head, with a large stone in its mouth. They are the knights of the stone kingdom. They are here to inform the Darwin's kingdom about two things. One will be informed publicly, while the other will be shared only to the king and other official members of the kingdom.
It was at dawn and King Darwin Jr had already left Mia's room to receive the urgent news that the Stone kingdom brought to them.
The Head Knight, Jasmine, a female knight went into the palace, to the throne room to have a meeting with the king. Beside her was her assistant, who was often called the snake killer, he wields an axe that is extremely difficult for anyone who wishes to carry. It is often rumoured that the axe was given to him by a snake goddess who happened to be his mother. Whether it's true or not, is unknown to everyone.
They entered the throne room and payed their respects to the king, and the king told them to speak what they had brought for them.
Jasmine was the one who stepped out to speak. She had a dark brown hair and the armour she had on were so light and poor that no one would believe that she is an head knight.
Just as Snake killer had his own name, Jasmine also had her own war name, She is referred to as; god of war. Jasmine the god of war, who fights strong and powerful beasts, nakedly with no beast gear on. She fights all strong men and defeats them with a few moves around them. She kills her opponents mercilessly without any pity and makes her enemy suffer in pain. Don't make her angry or she'll crush you.
"From the Stone Kingdom, a new king has been appointed and every other kings of the kingdom are expected to be at the Stone kingdom in two weeks to this time, to show their respect and unity to the new King.
And also, it has been pronounced to every kingdom that the evil female with markings on her feet is alive and anyone who sees such girl should report immediately to the stone kingdom's Knight and the person, either nobles or commoners will be rewarded greatly." Jasmine ended her speech and they made their way outside the throne room.
King Darwin Jr was lost in thought as he heard the saddening news about Mia. How will she be able to hide the markings of her feet. When Jasmine was talking about Mia, and she mentioned the evil female, he almost shouted at Jasmine for calling Mia an evil female, but he controlled himself. He would be suspected by the stone kingdom and that will lead both Mia and the king into danger, if they happen to find out.
' I hope the seer will be able to do something about the markings of her leg.' The king thought.
In a small room, that is built purposely for brides and concubines to be, of the king, were two ladies who aren't taller than each other nor are they shorter than each other. They are both of the same height, but with different hair colours. Since Mia knew that Ellen was the spirit lady, she no longer address her as Ellen, but as Seer Ellen.
The bride selection ceremony continues in the evening but the seer had concluded in her mind to not participate in it anymore since she already knew the outcome of everything. She didn't tell Mia about it, but Mia also was curious to know if she'll be going for the ceremony. She decided to ask the seer about it, and also to tell her what she planned to do to the second chief and his family.
"So, will you be attending the selection ceremony this evening?" Mia asked and the seer looked deep into her eyes as if she is trying to read what she was thinking.
"Actually, that is impossible. I won't be attending what I already know the outcome of it. Well, your plan on what to do about the second chief will determine the outcome of the selection." The seer replied. "What do you wish to do to the second chief?" she asked.
"Pfff." Mia sighed. "I decided to let him know that what he did was wrong and inappropriate to human nature by making the second chief to lose his position as a royal chief." Mia said.
"If that's what you want, then it means that the King will have to marry one of the twins." The seer said.
"No, not the twins." Mia shouted.
"Let me give you some suggestion. How about I transform your appearance into Ellen's appearance, and you continue with the ceremony till it ends tommorow. It will be you and the twins,.. spark." The seer said.
"That's not a bad idea. But, can you do that?" Mia asked, unsure of the plan.
"Yeah, I can do it and I know that you will be selected as the bride, to be honest, it is just as I saw it in the vision." The seer said.
"You mean that is the outcome of the selection ceremony that you said you saw?" Mia asked excitedly.
"Yeah." The seer answered.
"I can't wait to do this. I just need to write some things about the chief before I could transform into Ellen. Give me some moments." Mia said as she brought out the Diary that the seventh Chief gave to her, before he died.
The shares and money he collected from the people and workers for the king, the men he met with, to assassinate the late royal bloods and people with high positions and great wealth.
His meeting with the present king's mother, the Queen of the Hearts family. Their discussions and secret plans against the former king.
His plan to kill the seventh Chief and the princess of the Spade family, with her family members.
All of it were written inside a long paper by Mia. She planned to give it to the King and tell him all what he needs to know.
After she finished writing these, the seer transformed her body into that of Ellen, but then, they heard a knock on the door. The seer looked through the door and saw that it was the second chief's second daughter, Pho.
