Astounded? Confused? Afraid? All these feelings were shown on Lucelle's face after seeing and knowing it was him. She sweated a lot, even the cloak began to drippingwet. His sudden presence in front of her made her astounded, specifically slashing the shadow spike into pieces just to save her life. However, she also doubted his appearance out of nowhere. She was confused as hell... Just how did he know her location? She couldn't even answer if it was coincidental or not. Moreover, him being here only meant that those Feronia Kingdom's bastards out there already knew where she was. Maybe hundred or even thousand of soldiers were already circling the mountain, waiting for her to go down. Maybe this prince was sent by the king to find her, to arrest her or even silence her forever. She was so afraid of the big possibility! She wanted to run away but her legs couldn't move to take a step, rather it were trembling. She wanted to close her eyes to believe that once she would open it, there would be no him in front of her... but the scattered pieces on the ground and her being still alive, she knew to herself that she had seen was the truth. Hoping that the hood of her red cloak could help her not showing her face to the prince, she adjusted it properly and closely. She doesn't want him to recognize that the lone survivor of the annihilation few days ago was here, busy fighting the enemies to save the children, instead of hiding to a far, yet safe place, away from the hands of those bastards! If someone knew the decision she had done just to save the children instead of escaping, they might think it was a foolish decision because why saving them if you didn't have relationship with them to begin with. They might think that if only you didn't try saving the children, you would have no reason of meeting him, First Prince Jun Armando Lovete in the first place. But Lucelle was different. Despite not having any intimate or casual relationship with the children, she had the urge to save them. It was her responsibility. Not saving a hopeless child was not her style at all. She doesn't want to see them suffering or worst, dying. She doesn't want to feel the pain just like losing her family. If helping a hand could save them, why not? She had the strength to do so. "Are you alright?" a worrying tone from Prince Armando as he faced Lucelle. He was wearing a golden royal robe while holding a yellow-colored excalibur. Getting rid of her thoughts, she replied with a serious and fierce voice, "I don't need your help." I need to change the way I'm speaking so that he won't recognize me. Or maybe I should close my mouth? The latter is the better. Prince Armando chuckled, "Really?" Instead of answering, she kept a distance away from her and her gaze went into Lord Dominus. "As expected, you have the ability to break the special barrier I set up once again," Lord Domino commented after seeing the one who injured his shoulder. Prince Armando gazed at him and responded with a serious voice, "Your barrier is too weak for it to be special, old man." "HAHAHA! I won't deny that fact... but that was before," said by the Lord Dominus, "Because now, I will awaken my real self forcefully through using the disgusting blood and bodies of the goblins! I will be a lot stronger than what I am right now! You two will be my appetizers after my awakening! HAHAHA...!" Then he began chanting... "Darkness is everything within! With its omnipotent power, behold the awakening of I, Dominus, the Lord of Darkness!" Out of the sudden, the sacrificial magic array was activated after absorbing the blood and bodies of the goblins. After that, Chief Domino's body was lying on the ground unconscious, as if Lord Dominus' soul came out. Few seconds later, the black coffin was tembling. It broke into several pieces and strongly flew away into different ways. Some pieces went into the direction of Lucelle and the Prince Armando. Lucelle casted a fire shield to block them, while the Prince used his excalibur to slash the pieces. Then, a huge black creature with two spiky horns and sharped fingernails arrogantly appeared. He seemed like a nightwalker if not for its long tail. "See? This is how stunning and mesmerizing I am with my true form!" he said to Lucelle who judged his former appearance earlier, then continued talking as gaze went into the two, "I even recovered more than half of my power with the force awakening, so what's more if I can devour you two? With your powerful body and magic power, I'm sure it will be a great help to my full recovery!" 'Your former appearance is much more better than what you are right now, Lucelle'. She wanted to say that, but chose not to when she noticed that the power of Lord Dominus was similar to a 4th-circle magic level aside from it was terrifyingly disgusting. He was 2 higher than I am right now and that's only his more than half magic power. If he can have the chance to completely recover, then that would mean that he will be like a 5th or even a 6th-circle magician? If so, we might have no chance of defeating him. Besides, I don't know how powerful the prince is. Rumours say that he is only a 2nd-circle magician that's why he decided to be playful, to become a philanderer. But seeing how he slashed the shadow spike with ease, I know that rumours is just rumours. Maybe he can change the situation if it will become complicated...? She shook her head. No... Why should I think about him? Even if he's powerful, it doesn't mean he will save me... No... He did save me once, I won't deny that to myself. But... I don't know the real reason why he saved me. Maybe to caught me alive and to imprison me? Or worst, he will execute me in front of the people of the kingdom to serve as an example that the result of not obeying the King's order will be execution. Yeah, he's my enemy! I should not forget that! The son of the disgusting Feronia Kingdom's ruler who ordered his subordinates to kill my family! If the father is womanizer and ruthless, so the son too... Just like the saying goes... Like father, like son... _TRAVANGEL_
