Soul Lovers

The Divine Humanes.

Meanwhile Randall and Oshoshi were waiting for the invisible barrier to be lifted somehow while trolling around the garden suddenly, Randall stood still and laughed, now that he noticed Wren was not alone in the invisible barrier and the safety of Wren was in their hands, he was relieved.

Oshoshi stared at him in amazement at a glance he wondered why the King laughed.

-

Inside the invisible barrier, Wren stood still staring at Orchid and Kontar, smiling.

“You guys came at the right time, save the Prince am facing those Hunters. Alone.” She ordered.

“No my Princess, it’s enough, we should kindly take care of them for you.” June pleaded as she bowed.

Orchid clenched his teeth.

“How did they enter?!” He fumed, turned to Kontar.

"Do you make them?"

“Shut your mouth. Focus. As long as they are here now things won't be easy any longer.” Kontar pointed out.

“My Princess is not yet strong enough to face both of them. Alone.” June foretold.

Wren pursed her lips, disappointed.

“Orchid, kill the Prince, now!” Kontar yelled.

He looked at Dryad with an evil look in his eyes.

“With pleasure!”

Before he made his move, behind Wren someone sped in a flash, breaching the gap between Orchid. At high speed, Orchid was kicked at the side which the powerful impact broke his arm and his lower part of his body as he flew. While still in the air in that same moment the person dashed to where Dryad was tied, broke the vines effortlessly and sped back behind Wren before Orchid hit the invisible barrier wall with a compelling force and fell down.

“What... what just happened?!” He coughed out blood.

Kontar side looked Orchid.

“You didn’t stop the other one, Dante.” June said.

Dante rolled his shoulders and dropped Dryad on the floor.

“You heard the Princess, June. She said she desired to stop those two by herself, I only safe the boy. She commanded it to be so.” He proclaimed, moved his deep set eyes to Wren.

Princess Wren has gotten stronger; if she knew we were here before and during her fight she might be displeased but seeing her like this, I think she will be glad we acted not to interrupt her. Dante realised.

“Am glad you all came. Now, I will have my full revenge on all of you most especially the Divine Humanes, it is just a pity the King is not here!” Kontar gave a mirthless laugh.

“Ugh! The Divine Humanes?!” Orchid groaned he looked at his body. “My body is in shock, I can’t… even move.” He eyeballed Kontar. “I think Kontar has a plan… We leave the rest to you.” then he buried his head as he closed his eyes.

Kontar slammed her palms together this made a sudden change in the atmosphere once again turning the skies above to purple then the earth rumbled.

“Gage, you’re the one doing this?” Dante asked, Gage shook his head.

Suddenly, seeds fell from the purple skies like droplets of rain into the ground all around Kontar then it cracked opened the soil as stalks sprouted out to the sky.

Everyone focused on the enormous stalks growing before their eyes—More like a mountain ascending to become a highly elongated serpent glaring down to it's prey below.

“Feel the power!” Kontar cried.

The enormous stalks instantly, entwined altogether like a tip of a drill and tore down towards Wren and the others standing on the ground.

A tall, hefty woman having her red hair styled in cornrows, in an iconic armour just like every other Divine Humanes there, reverently walked passed Wren.

“My Princess I will protect you from this puny thing.” She said.

Dante clapped his hands.

“I wish your younger sister was here to see this—Why haven’t you tell us your name yet? after all this years with us as a Divine Humane.” He expressed.

“If you can beat me in a clash, I will but that… ” she clenched her fist as the air around her goes thicker, crumbling the ground beneath her, “Can never happen.”

The entwined stalks almost reaching them, she swung her fist to the direction of the enormous entwined stalks, her fist shockwave went forth at it. A huge explosion happened after being collided by her fist shockwave, razing the entwined stalks uncontrollably cratered to the ground inside the Kontar's invisible barrier.

“What?! That can’t be. Impossible, I spent ages perfecting this move to this moment!” Kontar cried.

Orchid coughed, as he slightly raised his head up.

“Did we lose?” he said looking at quarter of Kontar stalks from the ground collapsing as many of the debris from the stalks boomed hard to the ground creating many craters before his discomposed body, he slowly rolled his tottering eyes at Kontar.

“He was totally wrong for sending us here. We have not a single chance against them!” he said in a low tone.

Wait what?! The shockwave is getting closer. I c-can't be hit by that violent burst of air, If am hit that will be the end of me. Kontar blinked then she tried to uproot her leg from the ground but unfortunately she couldn’t removed it, she casted her eyes to the ground in terror as her eyes dilated.

How is my legs freezing to the ground without me noticing it?! She asked herself.

From afar Wren smirked while looking at the direction of terrified Kontar.

“Confirm.” Wren said in a low tone.

Dante leaned forward to her.

“What did you say my Princess?”

“Nothing much. Nothing much. Am just glad.” Wren replied with a smile, Dante bowed while he leaned back.

Orchid looked at the shockwave tearing to terrified Kontar's direction.

“Move Kontar. Move. Run away from… ” He coughed out blood, shivering and slightly closing his eyes.

Terrified Kontar swallowed.

“I can’t, I can’t-I just can’t… ” she murmured as the shockwave tore closer to her with a grating sound.

Outside the invisible barrier Randall and Oshoshi were waiting for a sign of breakthrough, suddenly, a concentrated amount of light beckoned in front of them. Randall smiled, then he fretted looking all directions.

“My daughter must not know am dead worrying about her, what should I do, what should I do?!” Randall loudly ask himself still searching everywhere to hide. Oshoshi stared at the King this time he was totally lost by the King's behavior wishing to himself he shouldn't have seen the other side of the most feared King in all Kingdoms while pinching his own eyes.

Is that the King he once knew. Before long, figures were coming through the light.

“I can't think straight!” The King said then beamed at a gleaming flower swaying majestically through the wind. He immediately sat down, observing the flowers while stroking his rough beards. Wren, Dryad with the Divine Humanes came out from the light.

As Randall noticed them while staring at the flowers, he spoke. “Wow!! I love this flower, I will definitely keep it in one of my most favorite room. Ha. Ha. Ha.”

He laughed awkwardly.

Wren narrowed her eyes towards the person that gave out that annoying laughter in the garden.

“Father?!”

Randall blinked and slowly turned.

“Daughter?!” he swiftly stood up, immediately, the Divine Humanes bowed to their King, Randall slightly bowed his head to them then stared at Wren. “Daughter what are you doing here? I thought you and Dryad were playing in the castle?!” he lied as he moved closer.

Wren folded her arms together.

“Really?!” Wren suspected her father was lying. “Father what are you doing here?!” Wren asked.

Randall swallowed.

“I-I… ” he stammered then he pointed to Oshoshi, "Oshoshi needed to take a poop here!"

Oshoshi widened his eyes with his jaws wide opened... "Eh?! Me, Right here?!"

Randall went to him and whispered, "I'm sorry, you have to take the blame but kindly go with the flow, if not." The King's eyes glares. Oshoshi shivered. then he looked at Wren. "Now that you guys are here he is very shy to take a poop.!"

"But Father, there are many toilets in the castle why here?" Wren asked.

"Why?" Randall blinked then he looked at Oshoshi, "tell us the reason why you need to take the poop here?!"

Oshoshi swallowed.

You shouldn't casually say the word poop for too long. he thought.

"well... because... " he hesitated, Randall bored his eyes into his with the most evil smirk he'd ever seen.

"Well—Go on." Randall said,

"Because... because I needed some fresh air to blow the hole underneath me while taking a Poop!" He yelled.

Randall eyes widened then he put his arm on Oshoshi shoulders and sniffled.

"You finally told them truth... sniff... I envy you." Randall said with a thumb up and a smirk while Wren and Dryad inclined their head, blinking at the response of Oshoshi.

Oshoshi lowered his head.

Poop, I finally said the word Poop! He thought.

Abbey suddenly, landed to the ground as lightning followed him producing a low rumbling sounds of thunder in the sky, he bowed to the King and threw scorched Isabella to the ground.

Randall Immediately, turned with a smile.

“Wow! Lord Abbey. You surely are the protector of our Kingdom… ” He looked at Isabella on the ground then his smile shrank.

“Another one?”

“Yes my king.” Abbey responded with a bow.

"But while is she this badly injured, I don't like it."

“But my king I have something to say, urgently, this dying woman told me, Jared was captured by the Beast Kingdom. Which I thought could be possible since his Vigor are fading towards the direction each day.”

Everyone was shocked except from the hefty woman and Randall.

The Forest Nymphs Kingdom now the Beast Kingdom. Randall thought then he looked at Abbey.

"Since when?"
