Chapter 375: Kenric & The Seelie Army
"The Seelie army is waiting for you down the mountain. You can leave the safety of the Castle in my hands, My Lord." Pristine informed Kenric once he had poured the content of the vial on the ward protecting the Cursed Castle.
Kenric gave a nod and both of them watched as the ward shimmered brightly with elemental magic for a few moments before the entire Castle disappeared from their sight along with the shimmering ward.
His gaze returned to the now empty vial in his hand and a smile bloomed on his lips. The vial contained the especial potion Annalise brewed to merge the powers of all the hundred spells, charms, and potions, that were used to strengthen the ancient wards of Seelie and Midnight Realms. In addition, she used some other ingredients and spells to add more advantages to the ward - resulting in the current invisible castle.
She divided the potion in two parts, while he got one of them, the other one was given to Valerius to pour it on the ward around the Secret Elemental Zone. And both of them had successfully performed their part of the job.
"Annalise has spent most time with you among all of us, and she trusts you to keep this place safe. And I will trust her judgement. Please look after those innocent lives in there. I will be taking my leave."
Since Kenric was tasked to lead the army of Seelies, he had decided to lead them down the mountain and into the Capital city of the Seelie Empire to wait for their enemies who would undoubtedly try to attack that place considering the citizens of that place were the weakest in terms of their magical abilities after the mortals.
Pristine watched as Kenric’s figure disappeared into the thick trees that were blocking the view. Once she was sure that he had left, she turned into her misty form and slipped inside the wards and into the Castle which she was assigned to protect.

By the time Kenric arrived in the Capital City along with the Seelie army, the dark army had already taken down the wards of the Seelie Empire that were way weaker compared to the ancient wards of the Seelie and Midnight Realms.
