" I'll do it "
Fiana said, as her parents would then turn to look at her, giving them their best look of worry
" You can't, you could— "
Galahad was interrupted by his daughter who stared at him with a look of anger
" Father I don't care, I've worked my entire life to join the kingdom's elites, and I've just been told that if I don't get rid of these eyes then i will soon die, I'd rather risk dying now then decaying as the years pass! "
Fiana yelled, only to be stared at by her parents with a look of defeat, they were her parents and they didn't know what to say.
As the family continued to talk about the decision Shu simply laid back against the wall, crossing his arms a bit only to receive looks of surprise from his friends family
" When did you get so many smart "
Ean said as he placed his hand on top of Shu's head, roughly messing around with his white hair, making the man frown a bit
" Well, I'm sure i've told you before that my grandfather had endlessly told me about the eye thing "
Shu replied before removing Ean's hand away from his head, fixing his hair a bit only to sigh as Ean simply stared
" I wasn't referring to the knowledge you knew, but rather how sophisticated you've gotten, there were times before were you'd turn serious, but ever sense you came back you've been acting all smart, which surprises me, and I'm sure also surprises the others "
Ean pointed out as he would then turn to look at the others who smiled over at Shu, nodding in agreement, of course all except for Petra, the children and Emma who all didn't really know Shu all that well
" Well, it wasn't that i was ever an idiot, i just didn't bother to listen or pay attention, which I think is something i should've stopped doing right after my grandfather's death "
Shu said, only to receive shrugs from them
" Nah man, i kind of prefer the old Shu, lately you've been too cold, actually, if the surgery goes well, we should stroll around the kingdom, im sure the citizens would love to meet their king "
Ean replied, looking over at the others for approval, receiving a nod from all of them which made Shu squint his eyes a bit, thinking about it for a second before turning his attention over to Fiana who stood in front of him
" Alright, conversations over, please do the surgery on me "
Fiana said, with a firm voice and determined expression, only to receive a small pat and smile from Shu
" Well, go with my wife, she'll take you to the— "
Shu quickly, pushed the girl aside, and in the matter of a second formed a mantle of energy which protected everyone in the room from what seemed to be a sword formed out of sanctuary energy
" Ooh, that's pretty sturdy stuff, I didn't think you'd block that"
A man said whilst the dust that the impact formed began to disperse, revealing the upper part of the castle to be destroyed, and above it was a dark skinned man floating in the air.
" I'm going to assume that the white haired is Shu "
The man said whilst smirking a bit, shuffling what seemed to be a deck of cards back and forth on his hands
" What do you want? "
Shu questioned as the shield he formed began to de-materialize; he would then turn to look over at his wives and children
" Ayami get them all out of here, and keep the kids save "
Shu ordered to then turn to Alice, Fiana and Galahad
" You three as well, go, follow my family, there's a bunker underneath the castle, you guys should be good ther— "
" I hate to to disappoint but, I didn't come here to fight, I came here for that girl "
The man said as he stopped shuffling his cards, smiling whilst pointing at Fiana with his left index finger
" Why's that? "
Shu replied
" Are you acting stupid? Or is it that you don't actually know? Well whatever the case, that girl has very special eyes, and my creator so happens to want them "
The dark skinned man said, only to receive a look from Ean, taking a close look at the person's appearance.
The man had a slim body, he was tall, about 6'3 in height, he also had an Afro, which waved slowly along with the wind, he also had horns on his forehead and a tail attached to his lower back that swayed across the air.
For clothes he had something incredibly basic, a simple black short sleeved shirt and a short black pants, with wooden Sandals, and a silver bracelet on his wrist with an X swinging from it
" He seems to be a demon, I don't think we'll be able to win, im feeling an intense pressure coming from him "
Ean whispered, only to receive a nod from Shu who gave the demon a look of challenge
" Uh, I don't think you lot understand, I just came for the girl, I don't really want to fight. Look, I'll even promise not to attack you two if you guys just hand over the gir— "
" Are you with the demon who's in control of the vampire kingdom!?! "
Shu questioned, interrupting the demon only to receive a frown from it
" If im with who? The guy over at the—-oh, you mean Little birdy? Pff, man what? No , I'm with no body, I just came here to get the girl bro, how many times do I have to repeat myself? "
The demon said, slowly descending from the sky, smiling at the two men in front of him
" I can guarantee you guys one thing—well two things, If I'm offered the girl, then I will happily leave "
The man said as Shu and Ean simply stared at each other only to turn and stare back at the demon
" And the second thing? "
Ean questioned, only to receive a calm look from the man
" Well I can guarantee you two won't beat me in a fight, so let's just get this over with and— "
The man stretched out his hand to grab the girl, only for Shu to throw a quick kick at the man's abdomen, causing a huge burst of air from which the family was protected, by a shield Shu had formed before hand
" Sigh, you shouldn't have done that "
The man said with a low tone whilst looking down at Shu with a look of annoyance, his eyes glowing red and his body shown to not even be scathed
