The bloody ht sky
The spotlessly white castle on the peak of the cliff glowed to the gentle shi+ne of the ht, perhaps there would be a flock of nightingales hovering above the castle and singing beautiful tones that added colors to the lifeless night sky But the glorious night creatures cowered in the deepest caves, succu sound of the pipe organ resounded in the wide, rectangular roo that emanated a soft radiance Beautiful tapestries of various patterns hung on the sleek, white walls and the weapons between thenize its value without any knowledge of weapons The tall shelf that was olden and silver-colored threads displayed all sorts of ancient books that were held in utmost care
The doors with floral decorations opened gradually A ical servant entered and stood by the side respectfully It gazed at itslady elegantly playing the pipe organ
Under the entle, s eyes were clearly seen Her pupils that were as dark as the deep night emanated spiritual radiances like the reflection of the moon in the pond Her snowy, slender neck appeared oddly eye-catching against the contrasting pitch-black night gohile the youthful, char curves of her body were filled with lethal teround and her fragile, unsullied beauty see
The young lady kept her eyes closed as she immersed in her ure enveloped her, and she opened her eyes and stroked across the last few keys of the pipe organ with her slender, dewy fingers Then, she stood up, turned around lithely, lifted the hem of her skit and knelt before the s, Your Majesty”
The man twitched his brows and spoke in a deep voice
“You may rise This isn’t the palace, so you don’t have to be this for Brother”
Erin straightened her posture and gazed at the man in silence In huhtly older than Rhode However, his tone was as solemn as a reserved old ranite stone statue that a craftsman had sculpted—distinct lines and incolinted with confident, razor-sharp radiance His aggressive line of sight forced others away except for Erin, who looked at him calmly
He was her elder brother and the ruler of the Country of Darkness—the Dark Dragon Ion
“Erin, I’ve heard from Balende and should warn you about your curiosity You should be aware of your identity and the ier a child and I can’t allow you to act rashly anyh Ion was speaking to his younger sister, his voice was as stern and pressure-inducing as usual He held his hands behind his back and stared at her Erin lowered her head respectfully and Ion nodded No one kneas going through his head The atmosphere in the room turned deadly silent, but Ion broke the silence soon after
“I’ve seen Balende’s report What exactly is going on?”
“I’ot involved too late I didn’t expect the enemy to eliminate our army that quickly If only I were faster…”
“I know about that”
Ion interrupted coldly
“Apart fro to Balende’s report, you seedoive you a hard time? Don’t you think you need to explain the situation toBrother”
Erin lowered her head deeply
“I seek your forgiveness In fact, those humans weren’t too powerful But I was only surprised to e not in our report on the Munn Kingdoth, but I didn’t expect them to use the opportunity and destroy our army, which ruined the battle for us…”
“What about the human overlord?”
“I adth…”
Erin recalled the scene when Rhode launched his attack on her He predicted her ment on her rule powers Not only that, but he also held the same sword that Ion had…
“… He has just entered the Legendary Stage and has considerable achievements as a huht That was all</eround—her eyes glinted itty fla sister After a few moments, he puckered his brows
“You have to change your bad habit, Erin You shouldn’t let your curiosity get into the way of things But this time is fine since you didn’t cause too do as we pull ourselves together, ill eventually succeed Next time, you aren’t allowed to participate in battles without my permission, do you understand? Currently, we have no intentions of going into an all-out ith the Light Mainland As a member of the royal family, you must be cautious of your identity Fortunately, the other party didn’t seenize your true identity But such a situation won’t happen tiet your identity, Erin You shouldn’t needBrother I was too willful”
Erin responded She was clear of her elder brother’s tereat skills and strategies in others’ eyes However, in Erin’s eyes, being incomparably stubborn and self-opinionated was also a part of hi to listen to others’ opinions, not tohe did was right and his decisions didn’t require criticish accidents happened occasionally, they were only minor obstacles and the consequences weren’t worthy of a mention In fact, Ion had indeed never failed No ht
But Erin disagreed
She had grown up with hi and personally witnessed how he became the ruler and steered this dark country toward the path of glory and prosperity But instead of feeling glad, Erin felt uncertain She didn’t appreciate the style of plain sailing and this was the reason for the difference in opinions between them and why Ion criticized Erin
Erin fir a decision One shouldn’t watch idly by when there were unexpected changes, but should search for the cause of the changes and resolve it instead It was apparent that Ion disapproved of this He believed that Erin’s es happened quickly and there wasn’t enough time for them to respond The best solution was to maintain the status quo Noas one stuck to their original intentions and goals In fact, truth also proved that he was right, which hy he had never failed up until now
However, Erin had a different view on this Ion was proud of his judght that a little failure wouldn’t affect the reatly, but wouldperfect in this world The reat dae
Ion wouldn’t listen to her and she are of this But… she also had her own ideas
