Chapter 167: Awakening

"W-who are you?" Evie asked, "are you the presence that I've been sensing in the past few days?"

"Yes…" The moment its voice reached Evie's ears, she was almost mesmerized by how mystical it sounded.

"You are… a light fae?" Evie hazarded a guess.

"Yes…" Came another breathy and light reply.

"What do you want from me? You are not an enemy, right?" Evie continued asking. "I have noticed you following me around but never coming close."

The light fae moved closer to her and Evie reflexively grabbed her dagger and held it in a defensive posture before her. Even though she felt no danger or threat from the light fae, Evie knew she still had to be careful. She moved closer to the dragon that was now as docile as a pet, as if her touch had lulled it to sleep.

"Do not be afraid, princess. I will not harm you, nor could I harm you even if I wanted to." The fae said as it stopped just a couple of steps before Evie and a ghost of a smile flitted past her lips. If Evie was not observing the light fae so closely, she would have missed it. "I need to tell you something, you have to listen to me as I don't have much time left." Her voice held a measure of haste and that had Evie becoming curious as to what is causing her to be in such a rush.

Evie creased her brows. "No time left? What do you mean? Didn't you say you were the presence who was wandering just outside my room for days? You had so much time then to approach me and show up in front me…" Evie did not understand why the light fae had to be rushing off now of all times. Now when she finally exposed her identity to Evie.

"It was because you cannot see nor hear me, princess. I was waiting for your powers to awaken for you to be able to hear and see me." The light fae explained patiently. "But now since you have awakened to your powers – those glowing golden lights that you released earlier – it is just natural that you would be able to both see and hear me."

"P-powers? You mean… magic?" Evie still could not quite process everything that had happened in just a matter of a few minutes. She had done impossible things and she was still unable to even understand the whys and hows. And now, she was even hearing from a magical being itself that she indeed possess magical powers!

"Yes, princess. What happened on the watchtower earlier was your awakening."

"Awakening?"

"I am sorry, but I do not have enough time to explain everything in detail to you. I am going to disappear very soon. There is a reason why I cannot stay for long anymore. So, for now, please listen to what I will say." The light fae said and without waiting for Evie's response, she immediately continued, "Princess, you have to come to the forbidden land. You must reach the heart of the land at all costs, and you must not delay. You must head for the forbidden land now before the Dark prince catches you. You must never let him catch you cause once he does, it will be over. So please, you must escape now! You cannot defeat the Dark Prince if…"

The light fae suddenly started disappearing as her voice was cut off.

"Wait! I cannot hear you anymore. Just let me ask one more thing –" Evie was anxious and jittery as she noticed the light fae disappearing and quickly becoming more transparent – as though she were evaporating.

"I am sorry princess, but my time is now over. You will get all the answers to your questions when…" and the soft voice of the light fae just vanished as though it were never there in the first place.

"Wait!" Evie yelled as she stretched out her arms but the light fae was gone. Evie could only blink in confusion and wondered to herself if all she had heard and seen was actually true. Or was it just a figment of her imagination? How was she even related to the light faes? Why did she have to travel into the heart of the forbidden land? What big secret was it that would be revealed to her when she arrives there? All these things were whirling in her head.

…

Meanwhile, at the other side of the wall, the war had been blazing to the extreme. Samuel and the others had managed to reach Caius but due to the three remaining half bloods who were on Caius' side, it was not so easy for Gavriel's men to reach the fake prince. Not only because of the half-bloods but also because Gavriel's men were severely outnumbered. They had to continuously help the Dacrians while fighting against the half-bloods.

Thankfully, the Dacrian army who was sent to the forbidden land with Caius had turned their back from the fake Prince and started fighting against the imperial army. What they did was a huge help to the already incredibly outnumbered Dacrians.

On the other hand, the fight between Gavriel and Thundrann had also escalated to an extreme degree. Gavriel was already blazing with that bluish aura while Thundrann was now enveloped within his own aura of dark magic.

The dark fae was bleeding all over. And the haughty look he was wearing a while ago was long gone.

"You think you are winning now, are you? Vampire?" Thundrann asked as he rose from his knees. He spat out blood and his serpentine eyes slitted venomously. "I admit you are indeed strong… yes… the strongest I ever found since I woke up again… but you're not strong enough to defeat me yet, vampire!! Not yet!!! Not even close!!!" he yelled at Gavriel and then dark and greenish lights began to burst out from his body. 

Lightning and thunders roared as the rain fell heavier.

After the thunders, another sound filled the sky and when the soldiers looked up, they stood frozen at the sight of an even larger dragon emerging from the dark clouds.
