Chapter 99: THE WRATH OF THE DEMON KING (2)
"Your highness, only General Nyssa and General Thaluzar are in the palace right now." Velmoria, the ever-trusty help answered him as she bound a rope, only the lands knew where the rope had come from, around the intruder’s wrists. The shadowy restraints of the king remained, but she still needed something solid to grip.
"How are they not here? Get the high lords to safety, and have someone escort the queen and her brother into the palace." The tension was palpable, visible from the way he spoke. Not even Velmoria had seen the demon king that furious before.
"Your majesty, before I leave, do you see the things that are glowing above their heads."
Varziel turned to her, "The golden ones?"
"Yes, your majesty." Velmoria visibly hesitated, before answering, "I believe I can read them."
"You can what?" Varziel’s eyes widened slightly, "Those are words?" He asked again.
Before Velmoria could respond, the ground trembled beneath them again. There was another shift in the air, and the rift in the sky grew larger this time. It was obvious that the incantation that Lady Seraphine and Lady Immera were doing was not being of much assistance anymore. The sky itself pulsed, sending a ripple of air throughout the realm. A crack sounded, loud and deafening, and from the sky, figures dropped.
Their bodies shimmered with an unnatural energy, landing with grace on the palace ground, while others landed just outside the palace ground. They did not seem like any army Varziel had seen, with the way they did not wear the same uniform or bear the same insignia.
In fact, there was no insignia that he could see. Their weapons varied wildly—some carried sleek, unfamiliar blades, while others held devices that pulsed with some glowing blue light. Some were clad in bulky armor, while others wore skintight suits made of material that could only be leather. It did not look comfortable to fight in.
Varziel stood straight, Vhalgrith, his weapon, pulsing with demonic energy.
Behind him, Velmoria dished out commands, showing Castiel where to go, with the help of the Shadow Hound, and getting the help of Young Lady Darvia to carry the captured intruder.
