CHAPTER 24
Darcy leaves the lab, crying and goes to her way. Empephus gets back to the room given to him and when he gets in, he finds it to be full of dust...
Empephus: Gosh it has been months since I came here...
He sees his photos hang on the wall and call one of the maids to clean the room until he takes bath and gets completely freshed up. He comes out and sees the better of his room done.
Empephus: I think that's enough...
Maid: Is that fine?
Empephus: Yeah I can manage with the rest
Maid: As you wish, sir
After she leaves, he takes a nap. Darcy meets her friends at her room who are very delighted to meet her. All of them, sit and talk with each other and later on as time passes, they begin with their make-up.
7:45: At the palace,
We find many friends of the prince and other guests from outside who were invited to the party. It was made like a grand ceremony. While the common people were restricted upto the entrance, guests were inside the party hall. The outer palace was extensively lighted and inside were many artifacts, animal skulls, platinum and gold decoratives widely placed in the room....
5 guards come inside the prison and they forcefully take them out of there...
Aflesia: What are you doing?
Guard 1: Hey both of you...Lord has ordered to bring both of you
Princess: You cannot take us away in this way
Guard 2: Sorry ma'am but we have been ordered to do so...
They brought them to another room and threw them away like a rag-doll.
Meanwhile at the Antimon's palace...
Zeu Euve wakes them up at late morning. They get refreshed and start working out of their plan.
Savlino: I still doubt your plan
Zeu Euve: Hmmm what else can I do to make you feel confident about me?
Luton: If we had any Darkmeon members with us it would be nice....
Urius: Oh no!! Dear, he is still there
Seriene: Gosh..we totally forgot about him
General: Who?
Luton: Where?
Zeu Euve: Show us
Urius takes them to the prison and there they found Tethys locked up.
Seriene: Hey! wake up!! Do you hear me?
Urius: Stop it, it's good for us. Let him be asleep
Zeu Euve: No, wake him up. I need him
Urius: Sure...
Urius opens up the lock and brings up a glass tube near to his nose.
Luton: What are you doing?
Urius(smiling): It contains citrus smell. It will surely wake him up. Sometimes silence is better.
Seriene(angrily): Whatever...
Luton: Hehe
Tethys slowly opens his eyes and finds them infront of him and looks confused
Tethys: Where am I?
Savlino: It's the prison
Luton: Welcome to the prison
Tethys: Why have you tied me up? Get me out of here, immediately.
Seriene: Look at his guts. After attacking us, he wants to know the reason he is here....
Zeu Euve: You are going nowhere until you answer my questions.
Tethys(laughs): I'm not going to say you anything
Zeu Euve places his staff near his neck
Tethys: This piece of wood even looks older than you...
Zeu Euve thrusts his staff which makes a deep crack on the wall. Tethys was now scared of the him and everyone was amazed at the sight.
Zeu Euve: Old man..huh, missed the target. Urius, would you like to try it?
Urius(coming forward): Sure...
Tethys: Wait wait....ask me anything, I will answer you
Zeu Euve: What's the deal?
Tethys: Make my escape a real one
Savlino: We don't act here
Urius: Why so?
Tethys: So that he doesn't kill me
Seriene: Only worth of torturing women....
Luton: Yes she's right...
Seriene: Uhh he left you there in order to die
Urius: I could have killed you there itself
Tethys: Come on. Can't you just do a small act for me?
Seriene: After you killed my friends, I wish I could kill you..
Tethys(smiles): Then there will be no difference between you and my people
Zeu Euve: We do kill but now I need you to tell me something
Tethys: Ask
Zeu Euve: Weakness of Empephus?
Tethys(in excitement): So who's gonna fight him?
Zeu Euve(pointing towards General): Him
Savlino: How do you know about the fight?
Tethys: Wherever he goes, all he sheds blood and spreads his supremacy. He holds the power of an entire army or maybe more than that. In 2 months, we has conquered 6 planets....
Everyone in the room is startled and talk within themselves.
Savlino(quietly): He still hasn't faced us...
Tethys: Oh please, I have seen many like you...even stronger than you
Zeu Euve: We can take care of yourselves
Tethys: Yeah, I can see that
Urius(angrily slaps him): Just talk to the point
Zeu Euve: Urius step back
He moves back and General comes to talk to him
Savlino: Tell us his weak point. Anything you know of. Legs, arms?
Tethys: Or?
Zeu Euve: My staff...
Tethys: Yeah he does has. If I tell, would you leave me?
Urius: Now where's your ha-ha?
Tethys: Hehe...enjoyed?
Zeu Euve: Enough, tell me...
