Chapter 43 She who stuns every clan
CYNTHIA MAXIMILLIAN POV
Shock? Surprised? Everyone is. The biggest taboo of all is controlling the timeline. So, what exactly am I talking about? Why do I know this? Jillian Mills takes the floor.
"What are you attempting to say, Ms. Maximillian? That's a serious allegation among us."-she said. I stepped down and made my way to the center. I made five mirrors, and everyone rose out of their chairs. I forced them to witness what happened to Ulysses' town decades ago. The remarkable destruction of villages is represented in the mirrors. I have something to say. At various points, the scenes that are being displayed come to a stops. First, I'll discuss the women that were sacrificed on Hollow Island.
"The witch who persuaded the people to sacrifice women is merely a facade. The virgin women's blood is being extracted, and they died while they were dreaming. The last female pureblood vampire in this region are being abducted and executed. Her blood on the floor is being collected before she was killed and turned to dust. Suzette Dion is King Nathan's aunt."-she stated.
"This! This is the time when my mother is rescuing King Ulysses. She fought slayers after sending King Ulysses to Skyfall Kingdom's fortress. She had no idea that her blood was being drawn. This fight took place seven years ago between King Ulysses and Yael Yurin. Both of them became sworn enemies, and his blood is also being secretly gathered. Their bloods floated and were restored to jars in all of these situations. The individual in charge of them uses an invisible cloak to conceal himself or herself."
"Last but not least, only a few months ago. That individual also picked the largest osiria rose in Frost Mountain. As a result, someone is prepared for the major conflict. We should stop playing charades. Accept that greed will set off the blue moon war saga."
I lift my hand, and the mirror shatters, and I point to everyone's faces. Some took a step back, while the others did not. Smiling, I snap my fingers. The mirror crumbles to dust, and I am faced Jillian Mills.
"Whoever wishes to govern time would undoubtedly desire complete authority over every race.? She or he aspired to be the supreme king or queen of all beings. Mrs. Mills, don't you think one of the powerful clans had a strong ambition to dominate the time? Is it the kind of person who aspires to change the course of history? What about the past? What about the present? Or does that being want to attain their deepest sorrow and desire? Who among us have these? Hmm? Me? Nope. I already have a wish. So...who...could it be?"-I said as I returned to Ulysses' side. He takes a look at me. I'll explain details later on. I knew he was curious.
ULYSSES ALEXANDERS POV
I'm completely speechless. Everything she stated was true. I had no idea she was looking into a lot of stuff behind my back. But how did she find out about it? Did she receive a tip? But who is it?
"A blue moon?? The blue moon will appear in one of the next several months. That means...the opponent is prepared for a bloodbath?"-Jillian. When the witch clan leader spoke out, I knew it was against Cynthia.
"Liar! She's simply lying! Controlling the passage of time? Who among the beings present here wishes for that? She could be the only one who can cast the magic. Remember, she's a pureblood witch!"-she said. That's exactly what I have been expecting. They are attempting to put the blame on her.
"Exactly. Do you believe she is the most powerful beings in this room? Vampires and wolves were produced by the original witch clans. That indicates she is the only one who can do such magic."-her stepmother. She chuckles.
"Don't be silly, everyone. Have you forgotten about it? Excessive greed is the most evil of all. They gave birth to demons and witches."-she said. This effectively silenced her. Her sharp remarks capture everyone's attention.
"We must accept it. Greed is the underlying cause of our current problems. If we all truly want true peace. If we truly intended to protect our loved ones, innocent lives, and regions. We need to know who are the allies and enemies are. We should listen to her."-King Evan. I stood up.
"Like Cynthia said, let's not waste our time playing foolish charade games.? Let's face it, it is indeed true. This terrible serenity is fleeting and meaningless right now. Who are you, hmm? I speak on behalf of all werewolves when I say that we will kill anyone who attempts to disturb the peace that we all want."-I said. Nathan expresses himself.
"Whoever that person is, whether a vampire, a witch, a wolf, or a human. We will never let our enemies triumph, on behalf of all vampires. It's our life, and we make the rules."-he said. Queen Alexa speaks.
"We do the same thing. Remember this whomever is the enemy among us. Darkness in you is just candle lit. It can be killed in a snap."-she stated.
"As the head of the treaty council, I will look into all of the claims and anomalies and fulfill my job.? As a result, I announce that whomever the enemy is amongst us... be ready, bring it on."-she stated firmly and threateningly. Everyone rose to their feet.
"This is a pointless gathering."-Glaiza.
"We're leaving."-Salvador stated. They seems annoyed, yet at the same time...the fire is on them.
"All right, then. This meeting has been adjourned. Remember everything we discussed today."-she said.
NATHAN JACQUES POV
Dusk's king and queen visited Ulysses and Cynthia. As everyone exited the conference hall of the Treaty Council Mansion, I walked to them as well. We went to the Mills. Cynthia is looking at Jillian. Jillian ?embraced her.
"It's like though I'm speaking to an old friend. You have a strong resemblance to your mother. Except for the fact that you have the eyes of King Daniel."-she said. She flashed a smile.
"I appreciate it, Mrs. Mills."-she replied. She heaves a sigh.
"You only became a witch a few months ago, but here you are. Investigating crimes, solving crimes, and assisting others. I feel bad."-she said.
"It's meaningless. I am enjoying my life as a witch aunt Jillian. May I address you as such?"-she ask.
"Of course, sweetie. Anyway, this is Xavier Mills, my husband, and our kid, Rojun Mills."-she stated. She held their hands and smiled at them.
"Hi. I'm Cynthia Maximillian,"-she introduced herself. They both smiled. The held each others hands.
"Jillian, may I speak with you?"-I ask. She look at me.
"Me, too. I'd want to speak with you about something."
"I will come along. I also have concerns myself."
"Can you take Cynthia for a walk, honey? I'll only speak with these three."-she said. They nodded and walked away from us. I spoke. It is all about Salvador.
"I have a sense Salvador and Daniel are working on something together."-I said. She sighs.
"From the paperwork and the research of my husband and son, it appears to be a yes.? I have a feeling King Daniel is a slayer himself."
"As for the wolf assaults in Dusk Kingdom, none of them were from the Skyfall region. It just signifies that they are from other places, or, more specifically, the Southeast region."-Ulysses.
"I also looked into it, and their markings aren't from Skyfall residents.? King Ulysses gives to me the marks bestowed on them by their kinds. As a result, if wolves attack my kingdom's village, it is not their fault. In addition, some of my citizens are being kidnapped. The majority of such occurrences involve individuals from villages near Dawn Kingdom villages and the borders between us."
"That implies the heresies propagated by certain that Dawn kingdom laboratories must be real? Even the first princess expresses her concern in that regard."-I said.
"I'm more worried about the Blue Moon War saga and that curse? Whoever is behind it, it will be a difficult time for all regions."-Jillian.
"I knew Cynthia wasn't the one behind it. I knew my mate. When it comes to power, she is not greedy. She is continuously looking for happiness and peace. As a result, she is the last one who will do that."-Ulysses.
"All we can do now is protect our territories."-I said.
GABRIELLE HUMPHRIES POV
I'm looking for George. He stated that he will return today after obtaining permission from his father. At first, I resent my father for agreeing, but in the end, I don't have a choice since it makes sense.
"Your highness, I have a letter for you.? It comes from commander Quinn—I mean, the crown prince."
"Letter? Why? I mean, give me that."-I said. I took the letter and told him he had to go. He bows and walks away from me in the garden. I rip the envelope to open.
"Dear Gabrielle, I won't be able to leave the camp today since I have an important matter to attend to at the camp. As suspicions concerning the disappearance of citizens increases, I need to strengthen the security of the borderlines. I'll be here for several weeks, if not months. But I pledge to do my best to finish my work quickly and be home as soon as possible. I can't wait to see you and consummate our marriage as soon as I get home. George Quinn, your devoted spouse."
I threw the letter, as well as the tea cups, onto my table! I'm getting thrilled, and I even put on the most gorgeous clothing I own, and this is what I got today?! A letter from him apologizing and letting me know that he can't come back yet?! Damn it!
"I hate you! Argh! George, how could you do this to me?! It's almost as though you're abandoning me! Aaahh!"
Then father and mother appears. They were sent home by a witch from the Treaty Council. He then left. They inspect the shattered glasses and cutlery on the floor.
"What's going on here, Gabrielle?"-mother.
"That letter! George, send that darn letter! I hate him!"
Father took the letter, which they read. They sigh and turn their face on me. They also seemed to be worried.
"It's a good thing he considers what's best for the kingdom. After the protection spell is lifted, we must strengthen our kingdom's security. My daughter, we are also in danger."-she remarked.
"Yes, my princess, your mother is correct. He said that he will return as soon as possible to fulfill the marital obligations of the two of you. Gabrielle, take it easy. Remember, he's under your spell?"
"Ohh. You are right, father. I had nearly forgotten about it. What happened at the meeting of the Treaty Council?"
"That scum. Cendrea's child. She is telling everyone at the meeting that we are the ones who are responsible for the kidnappings in our own kingdom!"
"What?! She is insane. As wicked as her mother."
"That is why we must protect our borders."
I have listen to what they're saying and my anger is boiling because of her. She causes chaos on our lives. George is now mine, which is a good. Later that night, in my room.
"It's been a long time, little sister."-Cynthia. She's here!
