The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 348 - Disruption

'Knock, knock'

"Wake up Princess, you should not sleep in the middle of you're study" Fredhard knock the table in front of her. ??

Lory awoke from her sleep than she yawns before she straight up her back "I don't want to do this..." she whines than she pushes the book who has a little bit of her droll away from her.

Fred pull the chair and take a sits opposite her than he crossed his leg elegantly "Why not?" he nonchalantly asked while begin to flip the book in front of him, he already guessed the little Princess would get bored.

"I don't need to memorize this spell, its not like I will use it in fight…." Lory said with a pout, she props her chin with both of her hands "You will be dead if you need to make a long chant before you strike you're enemy" Lory doesn't understand why Fred forces her to memorizes all this spell.

Fred close the book in front of him abruptly "You right, chanting is no use in battle especially if you born with enormous power just like you and Lucas, but chanting is like a .....um…antenna for you're radio it strengthens the signal when you have low-quality radio" than he sips his tea gently and he sighs "We don't know what happened in the future, is good if you never need to chant anything because this action will drain you're mana even more then normal"

"You know its dangerous but still you force me to learn about it" Lory's face becomes more upset.

"Almost four hundred years ago we didn't know that someone can create a weapon that can nullify the power of the Gifted, because of that our the gifted people are slaughter like a turkey in thanksgiving, Only after you're ancestor, King Arkheon found the blood magic that make the Gifted able to transfer they're power to blood spell that the Gifted people could survive and win the battle," said Frehard.

"Yes, and Harland was established" Lory cut in.

"Amien for that" Fred smiles jokingly "What I mean Lory, this Gift that we have is not absolute our power could be blocked, decreased or even disappeared for some reason so I want you to prepare, you're Father wants you to prepare…..for the unexpected, for the unknown…It called 'Gift' because it could be given but it can be taken too" he raised his eyebrows with meaningful expression.

Lory let out a long sigh "Alright I get it, I will memorize this chant just give me the d*mn book!" Lory snort exasperatedly.

Fredhard narrows his eyes "You're words you're highness" he reminds her sternly.

Lory startled than she clears her throat, she smiles sweetly and gently said "Ehm, please hand me the d*mn book, sir"

"..." Fred squints his eyes "Cheeky brat" he scoffed but still, he returns the book back at her.

Lory sticks out her tongue to annoy him, although she knows this is for her own good but memorizes this much of spell to chant is crazy, their's two piled of books in front of her and each of the books is thick as dictionary how long she needs to remember all of this, that d*mn brother of her seems knew about this first so he runs away and left her alone with this 'smiling Demon' that d*mn Lucas, should twins stick together in good time and bad times!

Lory puffs her cheeks, she takes a deep breath seems to surrender with her faith.

"But remember Lory, this chanting…..only used it as last resort, the more elaborated you're chant the more you're mana got sucked out, depleted you're mana to zero is not good but you still alive but if it reaches negative than you're life will be in danger, so…be careful, don't be reckless" Fredhard expression become very serious with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Geez I know, I won't do that" Lory roll her eyes "Do I look that reckless to you?"

Fred nodded his head firmly "Yes!"

"….."

Lory expression is flat her eyes stare at the frozen statue who supposed to be human before, their's an inexplicable feeling rose in her heart even though this is not her first kill, the truth is she kills a lot of people before this, people say it will get easier after times but not her, its never become easy for her if she ever learned something she knows how to overcome this feeling in times.

Nan Yu Wei is the same age as her, beautiful with great ambition, killing her is upsetting, sad but relief at the same times at least she will never return to harm her and Zhao Li Xin again, Nan Yu Wei is too dangerous to be left alive, she has potential to be the next Lao Min Na luckily her mind is not stable right now so she easy to lured but one day when she becomes stable she would become dangerous opponent so its better killed her sooner.

[Lory!] Girsha called her.

Lory awaked from her dazed, she waved her hand and the mist slowly disappear and the puddle of water suck back to the pond and everything back to normal except Nan Yu Wei ice statue near the pound. Girsha feel something very wrong with hir Princess, he dives towards lory at the same time he shrink her body to a small bird again.

[Are you chanting? why are you do that? How is you're body? Little girl talks to me!] Girsha flapping his wing in front of Lory, he can feel fluctuated energy inside her body and this is not good.

The pain came from her finger and running to her hand [This is not good..] she grimaces.

Yuan Shao and Ming Yue Yin able to kill the Beast and the soldiers and Sacred Mountain peak members is not they're match, they all killed easily by them, without waiting other to come Ming Yue Yin run to search Lory, she prays nothing will happened with Lory, she used all her Qi to quicken her pace, Yuan Shao also follow her from behind.

Finding Lory is not that hard she because Nan Yu Wei created a lot of damaged while chasing her so Ming Yue Yin only need to foolowed where the damaged lead her, she finnaly arrived at the garden near the big human-made pond, she feel relief when she found Lory stand without any any harm but something is weird about her.

"Aunty, are you okay…"Ming Yue Yin approach her hastily.

Lory forces her smiles "I'm fine…." And yet her face looks paled and cover with sweat.

"You…you don't look good" Ming Yue Yin hold lory shoulder anxiously.

Lory can't answer her because the pain now pressing her chest she feel hyperventilated, this not good, she needs to get away immediately.

"Where is Nan Yu Wei? Is she hurt you?" Ming Yue Yin than realizes about the weird ice statue not far from Lory, why their's an ice statue here and why this woman statue looks familiar, suddenly something strikes her "Is this…?." She gazing at the ice statue, the statue expression is filled with horror.

"She will not hurt anyone…." Lory said in low voice.

Ming Yue Yin was stunned, is this statue is….Nan Yu Wei, she looks at Lory again in disbelieved but lory calm gaze has confirmed her suspicion, so she able to do this, Yuan Shao who also accidentally overheard they're conversation also dumbfounded, isn't Luo Ri Yi supposed to be a humble lady without cultivation but how could she able to do this? And how?

Lory suddenly grab Ming Yue Yin's hand " Yue Yin, get me out of here?"

"What?" she startled because this the first time she called her name.

"I don't have time, get me out of here!" suddenly one of her iris change into a crescent and the color change to yellow just like a snake eyes.

"Lo….Lory?"
