Scarlet's PoV
Two months ago, and Caex still can't get here. Maybe it's hard to make the tunnel I broke. Since I got here, I've always blamed myself that Caex is having a hard time rebuilding the tunnel I broke.
I'm here at the dining table. I'm eating alone now because the king I hope to be with is gone because he's taking care of work. It's also boring to be a queen because you will stay in the kingdom, and he's the only one in charge, and I'm only a temporary queen.
When I finished eating, I immediately stood up. The heat of the gown was killing me. King Sander was so close to me. Is this the have summer season or forever summer season? Can't you even wear a shirt and slippers? It is also hot if I go upstairs, and then it's also hot outside.
"Queen, you have a visitor," the maid said to me, and she immediately bowed, and I looked at the door who it was, and the one who entered was one of our servants, and it was the werewolf man, and he looked very bored to enter here. Did King Sander order him to be here?
"What's the problem, Zero?" As soon as I got close to him, I asked him, and he suddenly grabbed me by the wrist. I know that it's against the rules to pull the queen out.
"You are my problem, and you need to know what our king's purpose to you," Zero said to me, and my eyes widened at what he said purpose? What is the goal of King Sander for me? I accepted his offer to me, but he has another meaning?
We went under its kingdom that Aserious told me that they only live here and they sleep or what else. So we stopped at the opposite door and lifted a bit, and he let go of my wrist.
"You need to know everything before falling for his trap. I'm not a traitor or what I'm just doing my job to save our queen or should I say a temporary queen," he said to me, wait. How did he know that I was just a temporary queen?
"How did you know that ---" Zero put his index finger in my mouth to silence me, and I kept quiet because maybe King Sander could hear me as well as the others, he went inside, and I was just outside, wait does Aserious, and King Sander feels like I'm here?
"Your late, Zero. Where have you been?" King sander asked, and I heard Zero, I didn't know, and I remained standing here on the side while listening to their conversations.
"I call all off you to know what my purpose to my queen or should I say temporary queen and I need you all to help me," the words left by King Sander are severe, and my heart is now a powerful heartbeat.
"So, what is your purpose, king?" I heard the girl's voice, and I'm sure it was Jinkie who spoke because I know that Freiya is shy and doesn't speak. I've talked to her once but out of respect, And she told me what King Sander says.
"My purpose is to make her fallen for me," fallen for him? For what? Fall for his trap? Or fall in love? God, I hate drugs in just two months, he felt something love? Oh god, I can't breathe. I can't live anymore. I thought that only Caex could feel love but King Sander too? Are immortals like that?
"Fallen? For what? Is it an interesting mission?" Hector asked, and until now, I still don't leave here because I'm sure they'll catch me, I'm just behind the door, and when I pass by, they'll see me here.
"Fall for me, I want to make her my real queen, so would you help me?" King Sander asked his servants, and I feel like I'm going to explode if I stop being annoyed and irritated now. It turns out that his goal is for me is to fall for him.
To love him, but why is that? My heart refuses, and my brain tells me not to because this is my chance? Shouldn't the heart follow and not the brain? And its pulse quickened.
"I agree," Hector said.
"I agree too!" said Jinkie; oh god, why?
"I agree, King Sander," Freiya said. Is she willing to help that damn King Sander? I better get run away, or else this king's purpose will make war for Caex and Sander. As I step my foot forward, I stopped when I heard Aserious agreed too, but Zero did not.
"I agree," Aserious said.
"I don't agree with this," Zero said seriously, and I didn't continue my departure because I'm sure when they come out here, they will be caught, I waited for what Zero would say, but King Sander's voice I heard.
"You disagree? Why? Do you like my queen?" said King Sander, and I finally showed up to them, and the servants were shocked because they saw me, and King Sander turned around. After all, he was facing his servants.
"Is this what purpose you want for me? That's why you offer me to be your queen?" At first, I said he didn't turn around, and later, he turned around too and was shocked because I was here, and maybe he already thought that I knew everything.
"How long have you been there?" King Sander asked, and I immediately approached him and slapped him. I'm leaving this kingdom where he's planning. I'm going back to where the tunnel came from, even if I will take a long time to go there.
"Not for long, but I heard it, and now I know what your purpose is," I said, and I took my small crown in my hair that was stuck there, and I slowly laid it on the table.
"Goodbye, King Sander," I whispered to him, and I finally left, and when I got out of here below, I immediately took off the sandals that were so high it was annoying that I had to wear high heels for two months and I had a hard time wearing them.
When I was there for a long time, I immediately lifted my long gown and stepped on the grass with an excellent tread, I just walked, and I immediately felt someone holding my wrist, and I turned around, and it was just Zero.
"Are you leaving?" Zero asked me, still asking if I'm leaving or not. All of King Sander's intentions are with me. That's why I'm going now.
"Isn't it obvious that I'm leaving?" I said to Zero, and he immediately laughed, but it was only a little. So what is the purpose of this Zero, and why did he hold my wrist? But, of course, it's not against the policy, so it's okay.
"Let me help you get out of this place," Zero said to me, and I just nodded. Zero has no worries because he is a werewolf, and wolves know a lot about nature, so maybe he knows where I am going.
"Do you know where I want to go?" I asked him, and he stopped walking because we were walking now. He looked down and look at my foot immediately, and he backed away.
"I'm not a p*****t. So you are barefoot walking?" I saw that he was bored and change himself into a wolf, and he seemed to be indicating that I rode him, and I clung to his neck.
He ran fast, the nice wind hit my face, and I saw different creatures looking at me maybe they were thinking what I was doing why am I moving away from the kingdom now when I looked ahead my eyes widened I saw someone stop there and it was Hector who was smiling.
"You are disobeying our king, Zero. You know that?" He said smiling, and I felt someone pull me, and that is Aserious, and King Sander was also in front of us, and it looked like he was in a bad mood.
I tried to get away from Aserious, but I couldn't because they suddenly attacked Zero with their powers. My eyes widened at what they did, Zero is innocent, and it's not Zero's fault to do this. I still tried to get away from Aserious, but I can't do it, so when I look at him, the aura around him is influential.
"Stop this." My body is shaking now, and I don't know why I feel the courage to say this. I saw the wolf in front of me cry because of the pain he received, and it had a wound on the neck and legs immediately. It also wounded.
"You want me to do this, Zero? Do you want to die?" So said Hector, and he immediately kicked Zero and threw it away, and I had no choice but to watch the man who wanted to help me run away in this place.
I can't afford to see a man who cares about me and wants to help me get out of this place. I can't afford to let him die right in front of me. I can't afford to. Do they still have hearts to pity? I looked at King Sander, whose eyes were now red, and the aura surrounding him was purple.
After Hector kicked Zero, it turned into a human form, and it was hard for him to stand up. My eyes widened when King Sander approached him now, and I saw what he was making up in his hand, and it was a fireball, so I struggled withheld by Aserious, and thank god I'm free.
"Stop that!" I don't know why I shouted. I want to stop him from what he's doing because it's not right to punish someone like Zero who only cares about a mortal like me.
"What are you doing? He is going to punish him, and you're out of it," Hector said thoughtfully, but I still blocked him, even more when he moved a little more, and I now have a wrong opinion of him.
"Stop this, King Sander, because I'm just a mortal, and you can't make me your queen!" I said to him, and his servants looked surprised when I said the word mortal and immediately frowned, especially Aserious.
"Mortal?" Jinkie asked who didn't understand what I said because it was in Tagalog and not English because they don't understand the languages of mortals like me.
"King, what does she mean about mortal?" Aserious ask King Sander, and the aura in him suddenly disappear. He tried to read my mind by looking at me, but it seems like he is tired.
"Yes, she is a mortal," King sander said, and they were immediately surprised, and Zero, who was behind me, was now in front of me and couldn't believe what their king spoke, and I was standing because I had no struggle with them. After all, I am just an ordinary person.
"Mortals are disgusting," I heard Hector say, and Aserious turned away when he looked at me. It hurts for me because I made them hope that I'm not human. I made them wish because they thought I was one of the only people living in their world.
"We shouldn't waste our time for this king," Jinkie said, and she immediately turned around, and also, her sister, who was shy and looked terrible for me, Aserious turned around as well.
"You're right then. Go home by yourself, Scarlet Questa," King Sander said, he said my full name, and they disappeared entirely, and I remained standing in my place, and Zero was still here and not leaving. Isn't he angry with what he found out?
"Zero, why don't you come with them?" I asked him, and he looked at me, and he slowly approached me, and he hugged me and let go of it and at the same time tapped my shoulder and walked in the direction where I was.
"Hey! Zero talk to me! You want to continue guiding me to this nature's world?" So I asked him, and he nodded, and he started to walk again, so I didn't do anything but walk as well.
Many creatures looked at me as we walked, but I just ignored that, and I just followed Zero. I just bent down while walking because I could feel the stings on my feet. Then, finally, I bent over a hard object and got up, I think, because Zero stopped walking.
"Wear my shoes," he said and immediately took off his shoes and put them on me even though they were too big, but it looks like I can walk even though they are this big. I was surprised when he held my hand.
"Why are you doing this anyway?" I asked Zero as we walked, and he just bowed and smiled simultaneously, and I noticed that his lip has a small injure.
"Because I want to help you?" He said to me, and I laughed softly, is this man innocent? It's funny. I think we'll walk a long way because we went to a house and it looks like it's his residence and he lets me in his room.
"Is this your house?" I asked Zero, and he nodded, I sat on the wooden chair, and I looked around, and the displays here are old-fashioned, and I don't know what it calls.
He gave me something to drink, and when I looked there, there was a light there, so I just put it on the table, and Zero wondered, he knew I was a mortal, but why is he doing this?
"Humans can drink that it's a green tea with herbal," he said to me, and I looked there again. Why do I seem to be disgusted? Am I pregnant? Let's drink it. When I drank it, it tasted like our world tea.
We didn't do anything in this house because Zero didn't talk to me either because he said he would treat his wounds, so I decided to go upstairs while Zero was downstairs to treat his injuries.
When I went upstairs, I saw a soft bed, and I immediately lay down there, Zero allowed me to sleep here tonight, so I have no problem where to sleep. I'm exhausted today.
I also thought that King Sander was moody. How are you there Caex in our world? Is he already able to make the tunnel to get here because it's been two months here, so it's the same? I feel like it's not because I entered a different world, not the world of a vampire or a werewolf, but a world of creatures of various kinds.
-
I felt someone holding my cheek, so I opened my eyes and saw Zero, who was also surprised because I woke up. Zero got up from sitting on the bed and averted his eyes.
"We need to go now. It's already morning. Get up," Zero said to me, and I woke up, and I washed my face first. The water here is weird, it shines, and it's the same color in the mortal world.
"I'm ready, let's go," I said to him, and he nodded, and as we went down, I noticed the gown I was wearing it was irritating because it was so long, I put my foot on a flight of stairs and broke the bottom of it. And now until it's just below my knee, and I can't tear evenly.
"What did you do?" Said zero, and when he looked at me, he looked at my gown, and Zero laughed softly and at the same time went straight out, so I went out also I don't know why he laughed softly.
We will walk a long way. I refused to ride with him because I suddenly remembered that his wounds would get worse. He was very kind, a werewolf. I wish he hadn't just been like that but a person like me, I stopped when he stopped, and I looked to the front, and I saw a tunnel shining there, and it looked like it was over, so I immediately ran there.
"Wait! You can't--" it was too late when Zero said what he was going to say because when I was about to put my hand in there, I sprang up and fell on the grass, and my back hurt because it hit the cement. So why can't I come in?
"I told you don't enter because it's not complete yet," he said to me, and he helped me stand up. Not complete yet? But why is it already there, and you can see it? Can I see Caex on the other side?
When I got up again, I felt my left foot hurt. However, I continued to walk, and maybe I had a bad fall when I fell so that my foot was affected. When I peeked through the large tunnel, I saw Caex continuing to form this tunnel. Even though he was surprised, he stopped what he was doing, and Caex spread his hand without touching the glowing tunnel.
"Caex..." I also spread my hand without touching the tunnel, and tears were dripping from my eyes, and I could see in his emotions that he was sad. Did he miss me so much? Because I miss him so much too.
