Chapter 26- Stephen Moore

Luna nodded. She whisked the boy into her arms and disappeared.

When she disappeared, it stunned the attackers.

The soldiers arrived to the place where Luna stood before, but they found only the maid who was sprawled on the floor as she lay in blood.

"Check the surroundings, they shouldn't be too far" the leader among them said to the rest, using his hands, he gave them signals.

After some time of searching.

"We couldn't find them"

"How come" the biggest among them spoke.

"Let's go back and report" the leader spoke as he turned his back to start moving.

"But we don't even know who the lady is or how she looks like" another spoke.

"yeah, what are ..." he fell down half way through his speech, the rest followed suit.

A lady and a young boy appeared.

"Why did we return?" the young lad spoke as his eyes were filled with hatred.

"We need to turn one of them into you and wipe their memories, else the people who were sent to kill you will always be on guard"

He understood, if they were to find out that he wasn't dead, they would search for him and kill him. To make sure that it doesn't happen, he needed a scape goat.

Luna waved her hands in the air as she wrote various runes.

"What clan are you from and what type of power did you use? I haven't seen such before" he looked at her with awe.

At first, he thought she was weak because of her age.

Luna, at present was only seventeen.

He admired her more and more. He looked at her foreign clothes which she had obviously not changed.

He began to wonder where she was from, because from his memory, he doesn't seem to know which kingdom or clan uses such clothing.

She was still wearing the clothes she wore when she appeared in this world.

" Hey boy, you haven't told me your name?"

"My name is Stephen Moore, former crown prince of the Eastern Kingdom"

She smiled lightly after hearing his introduction.

"We would talk later, point the person you want to turn into you" she tilted her head to face him.

"This one"

"Okay, watch" she began to draw runes as the twenty five year old man turned into a thirteen year old boy.

His face also began to transform. His original facial features began to turn into the face of the young lad.

"You can kill him if you want to" she kicked a sword towards his feet.

Anybody who is following her must not be weak, mentally or physically.

Even if they were, she would transform them into iron blooded people with morals and bottom line.

He raised his head and looked at her.

"Your path is not going to be easy, whether you want revenge or to live peacefully, you need to be strong"

He nodded. He swung the sword as he stabbed it into his heart.

"Lets go" she whisked him into her arms as she spin and disappeared.

When she spun, she used the wind to clear the footprints.

Uh ..

The men woke up one by one.

"What happened?"

"I only remember us killing the prince as he used the last bit of his power to try and fight us but we only fainted"

"What about Yun?"

The leader asked, he made a head count and couldn't find him.

Yun is the twenty five year old man who has turned into the prince.

"He died when the prince used his last bit of power"

"Yeah.. he must have flown into one of the bushes"

"Sigh! He is the current empress cousin" the leader spoke.

"Let's go" their faces were pale from pain as they thought it was the effect of the prince last bit of power.

...

Luna McMahon and Stephen Moore made their way into the town.

They had appeared at the western Kingdom.

Luna had already changed her appearance and clothing and so had Stephen.

Luna's appearance was a Female Fatale. She made herself to be above average.

They had journey for some days now.

She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Jason calling her name.

"What were you thinking?"

"Its nothing" he nodded his head at her answer as he walked away while Luna tailed behind him.

They continued their journey.

As they walked, they happened to bump into some rare flowers which she would pick.

"Do you need any?"

"Not really" she looked at him but still nodded her head as she continued picking.

"We need to find the Clearance Lotus Flower"

"I see it, look over there" Luna pointed at a distance.

Two twin flowers. One which had red petals and the other had white petals.

They grew from the same soil, but some kind of unexplainable invisible energy separates the flowers from touching each other.

They had to remove them at the same time.

"I will go for the Demonic Flower and you go for the Clearance Lotus Flower".

"Okay"

They walked to their respective positions.

Removing some flowers requires skill and high IQ.

They began to draw an enchantment then a concealment before drawing the flower towards them.

Because of the unbalanced energy, which is caused from removing the two flowers.

It exploded.

Luna and Robert flew as their backs crashed against the walk making a heavy dent in them.

"Phew…. Should we continue or return?"

"There is no way we can leave here without figure out the exit"

"So let's continue" she looked around before following him as they headed deeper into the cave.

They arrived at a junction. They were six(6) different steps leading to six (6) different places.

"Which one do we take"

Luna pointed at the board which was in by the side of the path.

"it says, we should complete the test on each stairs and we would be able to leave after receiving his inheritance"

"it seems like the demonic and Clearance flower are not the only ones. They should also be planted outside or around the areas or so…"

She nodded her head. She also agreed to what he said.

She smacked her lips in amazement.

"I remember this place, it should be Lord Riev test"

"Who is that?"

"He was a great figure and my father's ancestors".
