Chapter 26
Third Person''s POV
As the sea monster roared loudly, the waves furiously swayed the ship causing it to shake
uncontrobly and nearly drowned out. But, Sabrina managed to cast a spell to fight the waves even
though she found it hard to focus because of the continuous shaking of the ship.
Azrael and La were holding tightly to the big wheel, careful not to slip off. The wind also blew
furiously that caused them to almost fall into the infuriated dark blue water. La screamed in fear to
fall into the water. Good thing, Azrael managed to grip something sturdy and caught La that almost
fell into the water. La was shaking and crying because of fear. It turns out Azrael was clinging into
the big anchor. He was grateful for it because it saved their life from drowning.
Seeing how frightened everyone was, Alex was determined to kill the beast. She grabbed her ne
and took the round pendant. When the round object was in contact in her hand, it suddenly shone
brightly and a long golden scythe with sharp de revealed. Excitement filled her heart, and quickly
maneuvered the scythe like a pro.
Sabrina saw Alex swinging her scythe and she couldn''t help but be amazed. Excitement also filled her
heart and casted a bow and arrow. Lifting it up, she focused to aim at the eyes of the two-headed
snake water dragon.
"Azrael! Can you drive??!" Alex yelled because she was on the edge of the boat opposite Azrael and
La who was still holding the anchor for their dear life. Azrael swallowed his saliva and nodded. Not
wasting any time, he told La to grip at the anchor tightly while he made his way to the big wheel and
started maneuvering it.
"I want you to get near the beast, Azrael!" Alex shouted again. Azrael froze.
"Are you insane, Alex?? How can I do that? I am not letting ourselves get killed! Or worse be that
monster''s dinner!"
"Ugh, just do what I said, Azrael! I have a n, okay?" Alex yelled annoyingly. Azrael didn''t say
anything back and decided to obey his mate. As frustrating it may seem to him, he knew he trusted
Alex. But, he was still shaking and nauseous. His wolf Khael decided to take over Azrael''s body and
skillfully maneuver the ship that made Alex smile.
The two headed snake let out a loud growl again and made the waves go higher causing their ship to
go up too. Khael swiftly turned the wheel and let the ship flow by the current. Alex smirked knowing that
was a perfect timing. Standing at the edge of the ship, her eyes glow brightly and her body almost as if
burning in fire. But, yes, her body was burning in fire right now. But it wasn''t the original fire, it was a
blue and green fire which is much more dangerous than the actual fire. Her scythe was also burning
with blue and green fire like they are one.
Alex closed her eyes to collect herself and when she opened her eyes, there''s nothing you could read
in them as it held nothing but a pure deadly fiery blue-green set of eyes like it would burn you to death.
The two-headed snake saw Alex approach but once the giant snake stared at Alex''s eyes, it seemed
petrified. When the sea monster was distracted by Alex, Sabrina released her arrow in a swift motion
aiming at the monster''s eyes.
Alex saw the arrow and she signed Sabrina to fire more arrows which thetter did in just a second.
The first arrow hit the sea monster bull''s-eye and their scream echoed more loudly causing the waves
to sway furiously and uncontrobly. The ship almost fell down but luckily Khael managed to maneuver
it back to it''s position. Another arrow hit the monster and this time Sabrina releases more arrows.
Alex saw the patterns of the arrow and she jumped each one like she never weighs heavy. It''s like she
was a bird flying towards the direction of the monster. La''s eyes widened in horror and shock but at
the same time amazed at Alex. Of how she easily flew like she had wings. Alex is getting nearer and
nearer to the beast and she grip tightly at her scythe and readied it.
Just as she calcted, the beast tried to attack her using its huge tails but Alex quickly avoided it as
Sabrina continuously released more arrows. The arrows hit the snake tails and it roared painfully.
La''s eyes widened in horror when the tail of the monster was going to hit the ship. She closed her
eyes and readied herself to die right then and there. She thought they were going to drown, but that
didn''t happened. When she opened her eyes, the ship was no longer in front of the beast. She sighed
in relief but her heart was still beating erratically in fear. Her eyes widened more when she saw Alex
frequently jumping into the floating ice like stairs making its way to the beast while a burning scythe is
on her hand taking its aim to the beast who was still roaring loudly in pain.
The beast''s eyes were full of arrows that were thrown by Sabrina a moment ago.

Alex didn''t waste any time and skillfully used her scythe to slice the two-headed snake to shreds. The
beast excruciating cries stung their ears, almost making their ears bleed. But Alex still wasn''t content,
swaying the scythe into different movements, she lunged at the beast and sliced it into tiny pieces.
Surprisingly, the beast shone brightly and they saw something lifted up into the sky and exploded like
fireworks. But, Alex gasped when something caught her eyes, she was stunned to see a small bright
lighting her way swiftly. And in just a blink of her eyes, the light stopped in front of her and froze
when it entered her wrist. But then, she noticed a tattoo in her wrists. It''s a two-headed snake water
dragon tattoo that made her bbergasted. There''s a slight burning sensation that runs through her
veins but it fades quickly.
Alex was still breathing heavily while gripping her now bloody scythe. The thick ck blood was
burning by her blue-green fire. The awful smell of the burning blood scattered in the air causing them to
cover their nose and feel nauseous.
Alex teleported herself into the ship and mmed herself to the wet floor while breathing heavily. The
scythe suddenly shimmered and returned back to the round object. Alex quickly put back the round
object on her neck.
The wind was now blowing normally like it should. The waves were nowhere and the silence enveloped
them. Only their ragged breathing could be heard.
La was still gripping the anchor like her life depends on it. Azrael was also gripping the wheel tightly
when Khael let him back. He had no idea what happened but Khael exined to him what happened.
Sabrina joined Alex and smiled proudly at her. Alex sat up and smiled at Sabrina. "That was…a mind-
blowing fight!" Alex mumbled. Sabrina nodded in agreement.
Soon they bursted outughing when they saw La still gripping the anchor tightly like a tarsier.
Azrael joined theughter and soon Laughed too. She quickly released her grip on the anchor in
embarrassment even though she was still shaking from nervousness. But she was thankful to that
anchor because it saved her life.
Their gaze diverted ahead. Now, they could almost reach the shore of the ck rocky mountain ind.
The ind is big and they have no idea what was in there. But they shared only one thought---they
were hungry.

Alexandria''s POV
After releasing my power earlier, I heard my tummy let out a grumble sound. Oh no, I''m hungry. But, I
also heard three sounds of a grumbling tummies. We looked at each other and let out augh. Guess,
we will find something to eat on that ind.
The moment we reached the shore, I stalked out of the ship quickly and stretched my legs.
"How about the ship?" La uttered. Oh, right. That''s the problem.
They all looked at me. Now what? That ship was my pendant, how will I get it back?
It''s like my question was answered when the ship shone brightly again and in just a snap the ship was
gone and my pendant was floating in the air. I grabbed the two pendant and put it back in my ne
together with my scythe and the book.
"Now, problem solved." I mumbled and giggled. They had the same reaction when the ship showed up
for the first time.
I looked up at the sky and saw that the clouds were getting darker. Oh shoot, it is going to rain again
soon. The three also groaned in frustration.
The rocky shore makes our pace slowly. Our eagerness to find food and shelter for the meantime never
mind the jagged rocks. I let out a deep breath and dragged my feet towards the forest with the three
behind my back. The forest was dark and I had to let my eyes glow for me to see. It''s odd how the
forest became so quiet not even the sounds of the crickets can be heard. Does my ears trick me like
my eyes did earlier? I focused on the sounds and our constant breathing. I stopped when my ears
caught a slight sound like something was around the forest that moved slowly. My eyes roamed around
and I could feel La grip at my arms tightly.
The slight sound suddenly disappeared. I decided to continue walking with La gripping at my arms,
Sabrina and Azrael following behind. My stomach grumbled again. Uggh, I''m really hungry.
As we walked, I also looked up at the big trees hoping to find some fruits but nothing. This is frustrating.
The silence was deafening but as much as possible we didn''t make much noise fearing the beast
would show up in front of us. We won''t want that. I''m too tired to fight right now, plus I am hungry.
Soon, I can feel droplets of water pouring from above. Sh*t, it''s already raining. We let out a frustrated
sigh and cursed under our breath silently. "Let''s run!" Sabrina mumbled and ran through the big trees to
find something that will prevent us from drenching. But we were already soaking wet and we haven''t
found some leaves to cover ourselves.
Suddenly, I spotted a huge tree that blooms with a lot of flowers and when we got closer, I noticed
plenty of fruits hanging. I almost jumped in joy.
"Wait---we should check it first if it''s safe to eat." Sabrina whispered and we nodded. Since the
branches have almost reached the ground, it''s not hard to pick some. Sabrina picked one fruit and
studied it. Then she smiled, "Thank God, it''s safe." she uttered in relief and nodded towards us.
I happily took one and brought it to my mouth. I moaned in delight when a sweet apple taste-like hit my
taste buds. The sweet aroma of the fruit filled my nostrils. As we devoured the fruit, I noticed something
lit up in the dark that was 100 meters away from us. I couldn''t help but stare at the light but it quickly
faded. I frowned. I know something was in there. I know it is a pair of eyes. Is it from the beast again?
"Alex? What''s wrong?" Azrael whispered worriedly when he noticed I stopped eating and just stood
there frozen. I got back from my trance and met their curious stare.
"The beast is 100 meters away from us." I whispered back and they gasped silently. La swallowed
hard and griped at me tightly again like her life depended on me. I saw Sabrina stare at the direction I
was staring earlier. Her eyes also glowed but it didn''t stay long.
"He''s still there…" she whispered. I nodded. Yes, I can feel the beast aura now. But why is it that I didn''t
find it harmful like the two-headed snake water dragon sea monster earlier?
"He doesn''t want to fight us. I guess he saw the fight earlier." I said. Azrael and La let out a deep
breath in relief. But I can still feel La''s constant shaking. I sighed. I know La is traumatized again.
And this is my fault because I dragged her with me.
"C''mon, let''s follow him." I said and they seemed hesitant.
Nevertheless, we started walking towards where the beast is. I can still feel his presence though. When
we get closer, that''s when I notice a small entrance. I think it''s a cave.
But, we stopped walking when suddenly, a huge round yellowish ck glowing eyes opened in front of
us. It was huge and it almost made me horrified. It shocked me to my core because I didn''t expect it.
And that entrance is not a cave, it''s his big mouth.
Slowly, the ground started shaking and the beast waspletely awakened. Uh oh, did I wake the
beast?
We stepped backwards and I didn''t know I was gripping Azrael''s hand.
The beast was so huge when it stood up. It''s another giant beast. But this time it has four feet. That''s
when I noticed that it was a huge ck dragon with thorns in his back. I also noticed a smaller ck
dragon. I guess that''s the one I saw earlier. Strange how the smaller ck dragon was staring at my
eyes. Suddenly, the smaller ck dragon growled and released a small fire at the giant ck dragon
like he was saying something.
But I gasped when the smaller ck dragon flew away when the giant ck dragon shoved him out the
way. I frowned while looking at the smaller ck dragon who was now grunting in pain. I red at the
giant dragon. How dare he hurt her baby dragon??! I can feel my blood boils in anger.
The ground shook again when the giant dragon stomped her feet furiously and let out a loud growl
causing us to cover our ears as it stung.
Okay, looks like this giant dragon wanted a fight. Thanks to the fruit because my lost energy came
back. I looked at Sabrina and she sighed.
My eyes widened when I noticed the giant dragon was forming a fire in his throat.
"Run!" I yelled and held La and Azrael''s hand. Sabrina ran ahead of us and we yelled when we
almost got hit by the dragon''s fire.
Suddenly, the smaller ck dragon stopped in front of us and ushered us with his back. He was asking
us to ride in his back? I smiled and jumped on his back. "Hurry!" I yelled to Sabrina, Azrael and La. I
helped them up and before another fire would hit us, the smaller ck dragon flew away quickly to
avoid theing fire.
Up above, I can see the whole ind. It was huge. From up here, we can see the next river on the
north side but due to the rain and the fog, I have a hard time seeing it clearly. The smaller ck dragon
was also having a hard time flying because of the rain. We were all soaked.
The loud sound of wings ttering caught my ears. I saw the giant ck dragon flown higher towards
us. But it''s not just one but two giant ck dragons. We didn''t see thating.
Now, what will we do?
''Let me in front, Alex.''
