67 Aghuss madness (1/2)
The great whale immediately reacted unhesitatingly and slammed against the crowd of zombified merfolks and water creatures. With its massive body, it was able to shove away the relentless attacks of the merfolks and various sea creatures thanks to its golden armor.
The scene reminded Elric of a single giant beetle shoving its way forcefully against the crown of thousand tiny ants.
”Sister Danna, Thank you! you were right just on time! huhu, ” Diana hugged her eldest sister tightly with gladness and she could not help but cry a few tears.
”No big deal, it is my responsibility to make sure that we leave this cursed place safe.” Donna followed up while patting Diana's head and added: ”You were so brave back there. Father would have been very proud of you.”
A hint of sadness, longing, and tears slowly crept in the atmosphere of the three comforting beautiful sisters. While moving away from the City of Aghus, the giant whale forced its way out from Aghus's zombie army while being backed up by a speeding dolphin, a stinging jellyfish and a giant turtle that relentlessly spewed destruction wherever his black pearl hits.
”I still don't understand. Why do we have to risk our lives saving a weak human?” Donna, the second princess suddenly complained.
”It was the father's dying wish that we must save his, sister.” Diana reminded.
”I know. But just look at him! He may look a little handsome but he is still a weakling!”

”I heard he has dragon blood in him.” Danna inquired.
”Is that it? We can just sneak into the human realm and catch a few ones if that is the case. I still don't understand why we have to go through all the trouble! Our family is down to the last three of us and we still have to come back to this godforsaken place just to save a mere human!”
”sister...” Diana was not able to answer her anymore. Danna, the eldest and the quite one of all three remained on guard at the front. She may have questions herself but she has better control over her emotions and choose to trust her father's dying wish.
After all, Lord Mahar, their father, is a wise and respectable Lord of the Water Elemental Realm for thousands of years. If it wasn't for that sudden unexpected accident in the Dark Trench, they should have still enjoyed a rich and peaceful life as princes of the Water Realms.
Donna vented out all her anger and complains as she could not help but be discouraged at the human before her. For her, Elric is just an ordinary human aside from the dragon blood flowing in him. Seeing Elric's eyes that lacks power and fury, she could not help but prejudice him with weakness and unreliability.
Perhaps, their father made a mistake? Or should we just risk it all for this man? Donna could still remember her father's last words clearly in her mind.
”A time will come that a human with dragon's blood will arrive in our kingdom. Treat him well and protect him with everything we've got, for that human, will be the last hope of our realm.” And with these last words, her father's body dissipated into clear white sand that scattered into the dark coldness of the water realm.
