Fake sorcerer

Medusa didn’t care if Lucinda was on earth or not; she was just busy spending Lucinda’s money on food.

The next day.

Lucinda woke up and started to hear the sound of drums from outside the dungeon.

She freed herself from Ralph’s grip and stood up from the floor to look outside the dungeon when she saw Apedes approaching the dungeon with soldiers.

"What does he want again." She whined, rolling her eyes.

"Who?" Ralph asked out of the blue, It was as if he wasn’t sleeping.

"Apedes who else." She comments, twisting her mouth.

"What with all that noise?" he inquired.

"I don’t know." She whined.

And a soldier opened the door of the prison and asked them to come outside.

They both walk outside the dungeon and look at Apedes and the soldiers. They took Ralph and Lucinda to an empty room. Apedes stood looking at them and gave them a creepy smile when the sound of the drum started getting closer.

Lucinda looked outside the room and saw a group of centaurs beating drums. As a weird looking old centaur with black and white hair was in front of them walking towards the dungeon. He turned to them and put his hand in the air and they stopped beating the drum and halted. His eyes drifted to Lucinda and she moved away from the door immediately as he walked in with his eyes never leaving Lucinda. He looked at her from top to bottom and also looked at Ralph.

He walked closer to Ralph and grabbed his hand and stared into his eyes. His eyes were filled with different colours and he let go of Ralph’s hand and turned to Apedes.

"What is your observation?" he inquired.

"These creatures are very dangerous." He said, and Ralph and Lucinda opened their eyes wide in surprise.

"They are here to take something from us." He said and Lucinda narrowed her eyes at him, clenching her fists. She was certain that he must be possessed or something.

"So what do you suggest we do?" Apedes asked.

"First thing tomorrow morning, at the break of dawn, cut off their heads in the place of skull." He stated.

And Lucinda gasped, she wanted to attack the man.

"You are saying nonsense, are you even a real sorcerer?" Lucinda asked bluntly, and they all turn to her.

"How dare you question my powers, I can kill you this instant." He threatened

"I want to see you try." She said, glaring at him. She wanted him to do something to her. Maybe she could use him to get Lucifer’s attention.

The man looked at Lucinda in a weird way and lifted his hand to slap her when Ralph cut his hand in the air.

"How dare you try to slap her, I support her too, you are not a real sorcerer." Ralph stated, and the man withdrew his hand.

"For their behavior, don’t give them food before you kill them." He said, looking at Apedes.
