Will of chaos

Pov Current King of Kadra:

Current time.

It's been days since the attack on my father, and even now the Mages can't say how the barriers were so useless.

I called doctors who work for the royal family and Alchemists to treat my father, but they weren't able to do anything.

The only thing we know for now is that my father was cursed, this curse was especially aimed at my father as he ignored everyone and went straight to him, plus it must be a powerful curse to cause so much trouble.

During the days that followed I called Priests from every city of all religions, I also called doctors, Mages, and Alchemists of great ability, but none of them was able to do anything.

All we know is that this curse left an ancient rune-shaped mark on my father's chest where the heart is, and this curse weakens the body and causes pain.

I had never seen my father who was a hero who participated in many battles feel so much pain that he screams most of the day, he hasn't been able to feed, move or sleep for days, even for a Vampire as powerful as he hasn't. should be able to hold out for a long time in these conditions.

After the third day, he started apologizing several times, but none of it made sense, what was he asking for forgiveness for?

This morning a black Mage who focused on curses came to me saying that he had found information about the curse that afflicts my father.

When I met with him I listened to everything he had to say, but I nearly killed him in rage when he talked about the curse and the possibility of making the curse so strong.

He said the curse is called the seal of doom, this is an ancient curse with very high requirements to use, but these requirements are not the rarity of the materials you need, but the requirement of the type of person who can use this. curse.

It seems that a person's strength doesn't matter, what matters is the authority that person has, the right to judge others, and the target of the curse deserving such punishment.

This Mage even said that this curse had been prepared specifically for my father, that is to say, he was considered a convicted criminal.

This Mage must be crazy to talk like that about the man who defended this Kingdom with claws and teeth even in the face of a situation where many would have given up.

The insinuations of that Black Mage about someone as worthy and honorable as my father made me want to kill him where he was, which I would have laughed if the leader of the Kingsguard hadn't stopped me, he's like my Elder Brother since he was turned into a Vampire by my father which makes him his father's son by the Vampire hierarchy.

He and I are working hard together building up the capital's defenses in case there is an attack, we also build up the castle's defenses to protect my family and my father until everything is resolved.

Not only did he stop me from attacking this Black Mage who was trying to tarnish my father's reputation with his insinuations, but he also asked if there was any way to clear the curse, the Black Mage realizing that he was about to lose his life replied that the only ways would be to use holy magic, powerful abilities to clear curses or the person who cast the curse to withdraw of their own volition.

After saying that my considerate brother let that damn Black Mage out, I was furious that once again I couldn't do anything that could really help my father.

No holy magic or ability has any effect to end this curse, I've never heard of a curse that couldn't be cleared with holy magic.

I had to do something, and because of that in the middle of the afternoon, I went to the Mages Guild where I'll do my best to find everything I can about curses, this is already the third time I'm going there and I hope this time be able to come back with something.

As I leave I am confident that my thoughtful brother leader of the Kingsguard will stand by my father's side to protect him as he always has, even if it doesn't seem like it, I know he is suffering from this as much as I am.

Pov Zenos:

After the Meeting it was night, I was on top of my city library watching the beautiful city was built.

I knew it was not my wish to build this city, I know it was not my wish for so many people to second me and I know it was not my wish to be a King.

To be honest, I wasn't forced to do these things either, every time I had the option and even then I chose this path because I believed it was right at every step, I always knew that these decisions would put a great responsibility on my back, but I'm happy with things like that, that's because now I can say there's a city I can call home, I can say there's a place in the world where I'll never have to hide or ask my group to hide.

This city is my home, it can be a little strange place with an eccentric population, but that just makes it all the more interesting.

What I'm starting to feel for this city must be the same as what this ancient King felt when he ascended the throne, but then all these problems surged one on top of the other without giving him time to breathe, just for the information to see what he played like. All to defend your Kingdom.

Sigh

I look at my hand wondering if I would make the same decisions as him, but the truth is, I have no way of knowing unless I experience the same things he did at the time, plus each person's way of thinking is different.

He took the wrong path, I don't know if that alone makes him worthy of what will happen to him, but the worst was not what he did at the time, which we can only assume since we have no proof.

The worst thing is that he still uses Vampire Slaves nowadays, his Kingdom is not in any danger of existence at the moment, from what I could see his captain is thriving very well, he could have just killed the Vampire Slaves, but he didn't.

"Master, it's time."  (Ragnar)

"We are waiting for you, Master."  (Sakura)

"I'm going too, that's my duty as a Blood Priestess, Father."  (Vanessa)

"Alright since Nix, Lilith, Orion, and Layla are also leaving, they are already at the entrance of the Dungeon waiting for me."  (I)

"We will."  (I)
