Napakunot ang noo ni princess Merea habang pinapakiramdam ang paligid. She can feel a lot of presence nearing her premises.
One...two...three...four...five. she counted in her mind.
She smiled mischievously. “Someone got lost...hmm.” she said as she silently approach her sword.
She gently took it and touch the blade of her sword. Napangisi pa sya ng maradaman ang hapdi sa kanyang kamay at ng makita nya ang dugong tumulo mula sa daliri nya pabagsak sa carpeted floor nya. It's sharp—it can cut heads easily. What do you think.
She laughed a little. “I just hope they can give me a little fun. What do you think, my dear pet?” she sked dangerously to her let, Kimuchi.
She is now here with princess Merea bbecause the sealed is already destroyed. Princess Merea was really devastated seventh years ago when she discovered that her pet—kimuchi is sealed away but she never complained it to her father because she know that it's for her own good.
Her father sealed half of her powers to prevent her from losing control. Anyway, that doesn't matter. She can now fully control her powers now and she is now ready to hunt behind the sudden m******e to my kingdom.
She smiled dangerously with the thought in mind and her eyes turns cold and dull. “I will make sure, they will the pain I suffered.” her eyes is now full of anger and grief. “...but first, i will taker some intruders.”

“...ang sabi raw, this place is called death kingdom.” a man with a brunette hair said.
He is handsome but a little feminine. His skin is tanned and arms visible with muscle. He is tall.
He is wearing a normal clothes for travelers and he brings a traveling backpack with him. But something is off.
“Eh? Really? Why would they called that place as something creepy like that? Look! That castle is obviously rich with golds! We can be rich in an instant if ever we can get some of it.” another man said. And his face lot up with impish glee.
Naghalukip-kip naman ang unang nag salitang lalaki at tumigil mula sa pag lalakad at hinarap nya ang kasamahan. “Yes, we can be rich if that golds will be ours but our safety is on the line right now. Are you sure you all want to take the tisk of going inside?... I searched so much about this death kingdom and all of the articles only says how dangerous it is. They even say that this kingdom is the realm of death!” nag hihiristikal na pagkukumbinsi nya sa mga kasama.
“Why? Are you scared gleir?” Another man teasingly said.
Natigilan naman ang lalaking nag ngangalang gleir.
Agad syang umiling. “Of course not! I was just worried for all you.”
“Aw you're so sweet... Don't worry we can get out of there alive. We just need to get the treasures inside then we are good to go. Remember, why we are doing this.”
Pasekretong napabuntong hininga naman si gleir at naupo sa isang tumbang kahoy na nakita nya. It's far from the place where her friends are.
Natatakot sya sa totoo lang, he knows something they don't kaya naman he is sick worried for their safety.
“Sana lang ay buhay pa kami pagkatapos ng gagawin naman.” He silently prayed.
ON THE OTHER side, his friends is discussing something silently too.
“What will we do to him after this? I never like him... If only we doesn't need him. I will never talk or be near him.” nandidiring sabi nito.
“Shut up, Adulfo! Baka marinig ka nya!”
“Don't worry, he won't. He is engrossed with his thoughts.” nakangisi naman sabi ni adulfo.
“...pero guys, hindi ba kayo nag tataka? Paano nya nalaman ang tungkol sa lihim na kayamanan sa palasyo na iyan kung lahat ng sumusubok na pasukin at sakupin ang palasyo na iyan ay namamatay? O di kaya ay nawawala?”
Napakunot rin ang noo nila. “You are right... Do you think he really know about it? What do you think, Erald?” kunot noong sabi ni Resmond at tiningnan ang kaibigan nilang kanina pa tahimik.
“I believe him...he sure know about what his talking about. I can see in his eyes that he knows something we don't. But be careful, he might stabbed us in the back. I don't trust him either.”
NAPAILING naman ang dalaga sa narinig.
Poor him...
Napangiti nalang si princess Merea at pinagmasdana ang bago nyang kalaro. Kelan nga ba ulit ang huling araw na may bumisita sa kanyang palasyo?
Hmm.... Three days ago? Right! Three days ago, some stupid people dare their selves and make it a challenge that who ever succeed getting the treasures and come back alive will have the authority of claiming the kingdom.
But all of them get themselves killed. They are hanged upside down and their chest is widely open and their heart is visible to see.
Princess Merea let out a low chuckled remembering those scenes in her mind. For the past month, she becomes hunger for blood and dead Bodies. It makes her feel alive.
Princess Merea teleported back to her room and change her clothes. She is still soaked with her own blood after her overly training with her powers.
Her visitor is taking so long to enter her kingdom so she got bored and kill her time in her recreational space.
She smile in front of a mirror. “Let's meet our, guest.”
Lumabas sya sakanyang kwarto at sumalubong sa kanya ang pasilyong puno ng bungo at mga buto ng tao.
She looked at it un bothered and still walking comfortably while smiling lightly.
When she reach the door of thier palace she immediately halted for a moment and slightly tapped her gown like wiping some invisible dirt before smiling again.
She opened the door and she was greeted with calm air and quiet surrounding. She once again, smiled.
She gracefully walked out and went to thier overly huge gate. “Be open.” she sofly said and the gate instantly open as if recognizing the voice of its master.
On the other hand, a group of people we're startled when the gate suddenly open. They are holding each other's tightly.
Mababakas ang pagkabahala at takot sa kanilang mata ngunit pilit nila iyong tinatago. Simula pa kanina—Noong papasok palang sila sa tarangkahan ay naramdaman na nila ang mapanganib na presensya. They wanted to back out but their pride is eating them preventing them to do as what they want.
“Hi!.”
Napatulala naman sila when a beautiful lady greeted them with her Beautiful smile.
The guy's felt flattered at the sight of her that they already forgot the danger they where in. They immediately have thier way to the beautiful lady.
“It is nice to meet a goddess like you.” Greg said in a seductive manner.
He have this mischievous smile plastered on his face that every girls would fall for. He is handsome, actually the five of them are.
The five of them is above average handsome. You can immediately guess that they weren't some random guy. That they are more than that. Even though they are wearing normal clothes, their real status can't completely conceal them.
Princess Merea gracefully put her hand in her mouth and softly chuckled. “I think you overly praise me, your highness.”
Nagulat naman ang lima with her remark, suddenly their defense is up in the highest level and immediately covered their prince.
“Who are you?”
Greg's royal knight—Harbun came into the view and pointed his sword towards Merea.
But Merea didn't flinch a little, instead she showed once again her beautiful smile. “I see, my guess was right....” sabi ni princess Merea and slightly nod then later on she slightly bow her head before looking straight to his eyes. “Pardon my manner, your highness.” She smiled once again.
Prince Gregory can't help but have his heart melted seeing her smile.
