Chapter 94: Hidden under Tongue

Hexel forced his muscles to flex but it was useless. He can just watch Lehi from his pheriperal view. The witch resume his time and run to the window to check on Lehi but she is no longer on sight. Hexel unsheathed his sword and pointed it upon the witch's face.

"You better tell me where did you sent her?" Hexel warned with sibilant sound.

The witch flickered her tongue and Hexel got stoned with his position.

"I am not nameless. My name is Bylon your future mistress." She breathed upon Hexel's earlobe. Hexel wanted to slash her with his sword but his case does not help at all. The witch started to nipped upon his ear. Hexel wanted to scream but his tongue were unrolled.

Ain sensed the commotion going on outside Poldo's glass. Ain and Urchin were secured inside an empty bottle by the kitchen. Ain wanted to punch the bottle that's caging them but he cannot disobey Cyprus orders. Why does he need to watch this boy and babysit the whole time? There is a fight occurring all over him and that should be his arena but he is here with a boy who is sweetly gigling and enjoying a snack.

Urchin saw a vision of Lehi falling from a tower. Urchin shut his eyes and invited Ain and Lehi to a trance. Ain snickered this kind of gift for a kid is not a plaything. A woman drop behind Ain. When Lehi sat up Urchin jump unto her that made her lay back on Urchin's trance bottom. Lehi embraced Urchin as she stood up by carrying Urchin.

Lehi instantly geared up when she noticed the teen age man watching them.

"Who are you?" Lehi inquired.

Ain tilted his head as he ate his chips.

"I am Ain that little guy's babysitter."

Urchin grinned at Lehi and the trance black out. Lehi realised that the main reason why they cannot locate Urchin was because they are caged inside a bottle.

Natalina felt a ominous presence coming from the portal. Lila's been keeping her ground to keep the portal open but sudden shred started coming out from her portal the speed were zooming to her face. Natalina produced a wall out of rubies. Lila heared the chandelier made a pounce and it's falling from above her. She lie down on the floor and rolled to avoid the chandelier. Lila maintained her extended hand when someone step on her palm. The portal got shut down and Natalina secured Gardenia on the pillar. As she put on some garments. Ophir and Nevi landed on top of Natalina. Ophir issued his instructions to protect the Queen.

Nevi prayed for his armour as Ophir rushed toward Lila to kick the old man.

"Our Lord who cloth us with His Majesty. I hereby asked of your protection to take down the enemy. Give us the bravery to fight with this race. Let Your will be reflected upon us. Amen."

Nevi got a laurel with lorgnette upon his head. His shoulder and thigh got encricled with diamond. His feet got strapped with soil. Ophir striked with his hands and feet but the old man remain on the same spot. Ophir can hear Lila's yelp from the old man's firm stamp.

Nevi picked up Natalina's pebbly rubies and plunged it to the old man.

Poldo step backward to avoid being crushed. Ophir took the opportunity to help Lila. Natalina made a golden shield to aid Lila. Lila once again opened the portal. Nevi grab the old man's rod and used it to lightly swing him and threw him by the cieling. Ophir muttured a prayer.

"Yes Father who is above all things, I hereby call for Your support in this battle. Help me wield my weapon as you have entrusted me. We are grateful of your provision. Amen."

Ophir's bone became a hammer with axe like edges and guarded Gardenia. The old man growled at Nevi and sent numerous jalousie to rain down upon Nevi. Nevi fought his ground by punching and smashing the horizontal louvers. The old man transported behind Gardenia and was about to gouge her heart but Gardenia blocked his hand. And threw him on the ground. Ophir watch in awe. Does she really need his assistance. Gardenia caged the old man with her beryl.

Gardenia instructed the team.

" Ophir and Natalina get inside the portal to aid the other side."

Ophir and Natalina heeded the queen and entered the portal. Mem came with the knights to seize the old man and took him to the palace jail.

Cyrus and Kiel thrust their cane and rod as Cyprus kicked swing and threw the two. Cyrus got tanked on the cieling and Kiel got quashed on the floor and made a hole from it. Kiel fell to the lower grounds.

Natalina and Ophir appear right on the portal. Ophir clamp down his shapr hammer unto Cyprus that made him follow Kiel. Natalina helped Cyrus stood up and Ophir followed Cyprus. Ophir plug his hammer unto Cyprus but he collided with his fist.

Kiel saw Ophir and he can't help but be giddy. He waited for Cyprus to fall backward but he flipped Ophir and he got smacked on the floor beside Kiel.

Kiel chuckled at Ophir and help him stood up.

"Your entrance is so lame, you know."

Ophir just pout at him. They look up to see a huge part of cement got thrown unto them. They counter it with their hammer and cane. Ophir and Kiel used the rubble to get up and arrived at Cyrpus location.

Natalina infromed the King about the result of the battle on the other side. Natalina also encouraged Cyrus to switched position with Nevi so that Lila can rest Cyrus agreed and Nevi exited the portal. Lila also had a break. Cyrus joined his wife and the Elders who are gathered on the throne.

Nevi and Natalina looked for Hexel and Lehi. Hexel mentally uttered a prayer of aid and suddenly he got invited in Urchin's trance. Bylon cloth herself when she saw Ain. Ain laughed at Bylon's state. They halted when Ophir got thrown on the kitchen ground from the ceiling. Hexel broke the bottle and run toward Ophir.
