Chapter 13

First thing I learned today's lesson, was curiosity really kills the cat! Literally! And second, I just realized that the gods must really hates me, because I'm stuck again a perilous situation.

What did I do wrong in my past life?! Aren't I, a submissive and a pacifist kind of person in my previous life?!

I was still ranting in my head, when a sudden jolt of pain registered in my system. My eyes widened in fear, when my wrist who was tightly clasped by this stranger was burning. I almost cussed because of what he was doing.

"The hell! What is your problem?!" I shouted at him with pain registered in my eyes.

"I'm dead serious, wench! Are you a demon summoner?!" his hoarse voice was very authoritative and coated with killing intent.

"I am not! You bastard, let me go!" I shouted at him as I tried to take my hand off his grasp.

But to no avail, my efforts were futile. I was powerful and his strength was comparable to master Ezekiel. Another pang of pain, reverberated in my body. The jolt of electricity traveled my system and electrocuted me.

"Urgh! Let go of me, you scumbag!" I yelled and harshly swatted his hand.

The tsurubebis were worried at me and they were glaring and shooting fire towards the stranger. The gap of power between the tsurubebis and this young man were too far. My familiars flame had no effect on him.

Annoyed by the barrage of flames from my five tsurubebi, the stranger gathered his magic essence in his hand, and casted a wide range freezing spell. The ice was the natural enemy of my familiars.

I've immediately noticed that their flames were slowly dying out.

Anger graced my façade and because of the pain and irritation, I crumpled my free hand into a fist and instantly delivered a fast punch in his face. The guy didn't expected me to fight back and because of the intensity of the jab I delivered, his grip weakened and I took that chance to get away from his grasped.

He groaned in pain as he touch his face. Blood gushed out from the cut on lips he receive from me. His body was strong to be able to remain conscious and standing.

What I did was not a simple punch. I've used a skill called 'Self Reinforce Ability', just as the skill name it's means my physical strength was reinforced and boosted.

That punch can even shattered a big boulder. I guess this guy have this skill called 'Steel Body' to be able to withstand that punch and remain standing. After delivering that punch, I instantly went to my five fireball familiars and used my healing spell on them.

I'll heal the pain and burnt mark I've received from him later, the safety of my familiars were my priority. If only I can cast those kido spells, bankai like in bleach or something like ninja arts from Naruto, fighting him would gave me slight chance of surviving.

Haist! How I wish I'm a shinigami or a ninja!

The bubble of thoughts popped and I was taken back to reality when I heard the crazy psycho laughed.

"So you really can pull a punch like that huh, and you can even fight back. Show me what you got, demon summoner." He smirked at me and he was really ready to kill me.

'<<God's Eyes>>' I immediately used my appraisal skill to examine and evaluate what kind of opponent I am facing. The familiar transparent status window popped out and showed the details and stats about this crazy bastard.

My eyes widened when I saw his stats. He's so OP and I can't stand with equal footing with such a person with this high end caliber. He has more experience in fighting in the outside world than me.

And the worst thing was, the one who wanted me dead was my fiancé!

The heck with this!

He doesn't have an appraisal skill so it means he can't see my strength capabilities. I must deceive him and intimidate him, that's the only way I can survive. Because base on what I am seeing right now, this idiot Arthur was ready to kill and vanquished me in this world.

I just died few years ago and I don't want to experience it this soon!

"I don't want to fight with you, I don't want to hurt you." I said in a cold voice.

To counter his heavy and thick bloodlust, I too released my killing intent. It surged up and dominated the entire secret hideout. The prince was taken aback when he felt my killing intent, yet he instantly composed himself.

"You really are a demon! To possess such thick and dense killing intent." He commented as he pulled some air.

Before pulling his blade away from its scabbard, he gazed at me with his sharp eyes. Honestly speaking, he was really hot right now! That fierce looks intensified his godly handsomeness. It was like he was a piece of meat that the heaven given to the women to be devoured.

He has a jaw dropping features that would make a woman's undergarments waistband would loosen up. I almost slapped myself because how can I be amaze at such guy that was desperately wanted my head!

His figure instantly disappeared but all of a sudden he materialized behind me. With a full swing of the sword heading towards me, I immediately used <<Demon Flash>> to avoid his attack, I was pretty confident that I've managed to dodge him but I was very wrong. I just assumed because my dress was now shredded into pieces.

What left now, was my black undershirt and my denim shorts. The beautiful dress was now a goner. He managed to do that with great accuracy. What he just did was just a warning attack and I just realized.

Is this jerk some sort of pervert?! He literally wanted me naked!

"So you manage to survive that attack without getting cut." He smirked at me.

"Are you really an idiot?! I am the daughter of Duke Lucas Silverglaze III and Duchess Anastasia Devonne Silverglaze! I am Lady Zariyah Silverglaze, your fiancée!" I shouted at him to slap some senses.

"Huh! Stop f.cking with me, you insolent fool! Lady Zariyah is together with my father and the aristocrats in the meeting hall. Aren't you ashamed of using my woman's name?!" he said angrily and he was too blinded by his anger.

If this idiot and crazy bastard is going to be my husband, well I should just die being single! I don't what a psycho as my future partner in life!

Even though I have a weak magic reserve I can still use and perform some magic. The main reason why this place was illuminated was because of my familiars' flames. I immediately unsummon them, and darkness immediately took dominance in this room.

I took that chance to use a short teleportation magic that I've learned from my brother. My body glowed and instantly transported in the castle's hallway.

The servants, knights and maids were very shock when they saw my figure materialized or maybe because I am showing too much skin. The guards were on high alert and immediately pulled their swords.

Why am I such walking disaster?!

I was confident these guards have no match for me and I can easily dodge them, compared to that psycho fiancé of mine.

He was an op character and a monster! I really needed to proceed with my plan to create my own sect to guard and protect me from that psycho.

I was very ready to sprint out and escape this turmoil, when all of a sudden Arthur's figure materialized in front of me. Before the psycho can slash his sword at me and turns my remaining clothes into shredded pieces. I immediately leaped away from him.

The guards were more surprised upon seeing their crown prince. The psycho didn't mind and just ignored the people around him and just focus of subjugating me. I have no choice but to fight back. I don't care if he is a crown prince or a psycho.

"<<Summon: Ashgrif>>" I reached my hands upwards, and a surge of magic power circulated around me.

A wind picked up and gathered around me like a soft blanket as my body glows in a golden color. The maids, servants, and guards can't do anything but to just watch. The sound of broken vases, shattered glasses, falling portraits and chandeliers were overheard and reverberated the huge hallway.

Then a loud roar of my majestic wolf made a tremor, making the people around me loss their footing. Arthur, the crazy psycho looked at me with bewilderment.

"F.ck!"

That was the word he uttered before his mouth dropped when he saw Ashgrif gritting his fangs and ready to lunge him. Ashgrif was just waiting for my order.

[3RD PERSON'S POV]

Fear crept in everyone's faces as they saw the memories of duchess Anastasia, that was been projected by using magic. Everything they saw was hard to believe. The nobles and the officials were speechless when they saw captain Gael's death.

With just a swish of the demon's hand, the captain of the knight guards' head came rolling down in the middle of the clearing.

It was horrible and gruesome.

Then another scene played in the thought projection magic, it was the event when everyone on Lady Anastasia's party were all dejected and lost their hopes of surviving. They already accepted their death.

But the twins never lost the fire of hope in their heart. Arwin was so focus on activating a faerie magic that would transport their party to the capital through teleportation. While the young silver haired mistress was calm and composed.

"Everyone! The high rank demon is not here anymore! Guards! Why are you panicking! Compose yourselves! Aren't you here to protect those who are powerless?" The silver haired mistress loud shout woke the men in their state of panic.

Everything that duchess Anastasia witnessed yesterday was playing like a film.

"Listen, Knights! We need to buy some time for Arwin and all of the mages here to cast a long distance teleportation spell! Aleah, Sophia and Sia, i know the three of you know healing magic. The three of you are task for the healing of the injuries!" Lady Zariyah commanded the guards as if they were under her army.

The nobles and the kingdom's officials were loss for words and can't even utter a single word when they saw in the thought projection magic a young miss was being the commander. How come that such a young age not more that fourteen was able to command and entire squad of knight guards.

"Men! Our main priorities are to protect Arwin and the three mages, protect as well the healers, and including the people here that can't defend their selves! Widened the circle! Now move! Our battle strategy is defense! The best defense is the best offense! Don't break the formation! Support one another! Let's fight the demon beasts with precaution! Execute with caution!"

The nobles and the officials including the king were shocked of how Zariyah was able to boost the morale of the knights.

As lady Zariyah ordered, the staffs that can't fight was now on the center, including Arwin, the three ranked A mages, and her mother and father. The outer circle was composed of Zariyah and the knight guards. The secondary inner circle was composed of the staffs that don't have the ability to fight. And in the very center were Arwin and the three ranked A mages.

After that the aristocrats and officials saw how proficient Zariyah was in commanding and battle strategy. With her in the front line, no one lost their lives. She was like a goddess of death. As she slaughter and kill the demons one by one.

They never thought that the saying 'dancing with death', would turn into literal.

Zariyah was like a graceful and elegant dancer as she made twist and turns while killing the demonic beasts. She was like a flower blooming the middle of war.

So fragile yet so powerful.

This was the girl almost seven years ago was labelled as an incompetent and a trash for having rank F mana capacity. What they didn't know was that Zariyah did her best for five years to compensate for her weakness.

"Is this really true? That Lady Zariyah of the Silverglaze household manage to command an entire squad?" one of the officials said with bewildered expression.

"How come a young miss able to defeat and kill so many demonic beasts?!" another duke stated as he was still watching the scene projected by the use of Arwin's magic.

"This is preposterous! Lady Zariyah looks very fragile! How can she fight demons larger than her?!" lord Noel was objecting what he was seeing.

The uproar started and everyone were voicing out their opinions on the scene they were watching, the king himself can't believe it but he just remained silent and continue to observe.

Because of annoyance and irritation the duchess of Silverglaze was feeling. She pursed her eyes close before opening it. Sharp fangs like glare reflected in her eyes that made everyone shut their mouths.

"Are all of you implying that my memories have been manipulated?" the warning on her voice was so cold that made everyone hold their breaths.

"Everything you are seeing are real and legit. What would I get if I'm lying? Just as you people, I am scared and I feared the demon race because my brother died in their hands. And if your doubting my daughter's capabilities then don't." the duchess stopped for a moment, and glanced at everyone in the room before continuing her speech.

"Both of my children are talented and exceled in their own field. Arwin, a magic genius and hailed as an arch mage while my daughter is a master swordswoman who have undergone training for five years under the tutelage of the famous Mercenary, Ezekiel Hailstorm."

Just hearing the name Ezekiel Hailstorm made their eyes wide open, the man they called 'Ezekiel' was one of the Great Heroes who've managed to kill one of the ten great demon lords. He also accomplished a lot of achievements as an adventurer and conquered one of the seven great dungeons on Greffania.

They were still dumbfounded when Ashgrif abruptly growled earning the attention of everybody, before disappearing in their very eyes.

After the disappearance of the majestic white wolf, they suddenly heard the sounds of crashing, breaking, and screaming. Everyone's heart was pounding twice their normal rate and instantly get out from the meeting room to look where that rampaging sound was coming from.

Not long after, the nobles and the officials together with the king saw the culprits of such big and catastrophic commotion.

A red haired young man and a silver haired maiden together with her huge white Fenrir. Their sheer force were enough to cause tremor in the castle. The maids, servants, and guards can't do anything to stop the two individuals for they knew who they were.

The crown Prince, Arthur Pendragon and the first daughter of Duke Lucas, the heiress to the title duchess, Lady Zariyah Silverglaze.

"I told you I am not a demon summoner! You are really stupid! Are you a psycho?!" Zariyah shouted with frustration and irritation.

"Yes you are! Shut up and stop lying! Show me your true form!" The red haired prince retorted and not backing down.

The aristocrats and officials were speechless. If earlier they had doubted Zariyah's potential and capabilities, now they don't. Because just her presence made the whole castle ran some cold sweat because of the killing intent she was releasing.

"Both of you that's enough!" the loud booming voice of the king reverberated in the entire hall.

The king's voice was so loud that it made the people in the hall covered their ears because of the booming shout. Zariyah and Arthur stopped their squabble when they heard the loud shout.

They were so caught up in their fight that they didn't notice that there were a lot of people watching them. A question mark expression plastered on Zariyah's face while the prince snickered and cussed.

"The two of you, come follow me!" the authority on the king's voice made everyone knees quiver.

He was indeed a powerful ruler that even though it was just his voice, it brought fear in them.

Zariyah looked at her family, and she noticed that Anastasia and Arwin were worried for her. But the cheeky young mistress just smiled at them showing all her teeth. And stretching her hand out and made a thumbs up. And gave Ashgrif to her mother.

"Don't worry about me."

That gesture was enough to make her brother and mother relieve. They knew that Zariyah can defend herself.

The king started to walk away from the crowd, and Zariyah followed him casually. While the crown prince was reluctant to follow. He already realized his mistake and he will be greatly reprimanded for accusing Lady Zariyah Silverglaze as a demon summoner and telling her that she was a lying wench.

They were now inside the royal library, when Zariyah set her foot inside the massively huge royal library, she almost drools because of the books arranged on countless of shelves.

She didn't let her lust for books show up and tried to mask her expression. There were gaps when they sat down on their chairs.

"What got into the both of you and created a big ruckus in the hallway?" the king's voice was hinted with anger and authority.

Zariyah's heart was pounding very fast, as if wild horses were running in rampant in her heart. The Prince just rolled his eyes before playing with his fingers.

"Your grace I am very sorry for what I have done to your castle. But please your highness listen to my explanation." Zariyah used her soft voice like her mom.

Her voice was like a liquid gold and very angelic. The king only nodded at her as if telling her to continue.

"After I left the meeting hall earlier, I was exploring the castle's hallway and I got lost. Because I am a bit of a clumsy your grace, I tripped my foot and lost balance and crushed down from the near statue of a knight. Before I know it, a sudden wall opened up. Being curiosity runs down in our blood, I entered the secret passage that brought me to a secret training ground." I told him and I fabricated some of the story.

"So you have managed to find the secret underground training room, and what's the connection to that?" the king asked with a bit of interest.

"Because I was so amaze of the things I saw, I didn't notice that the crown prince was behind me. And all of a sudden he started telling me that I am a wench and a demon summoner." Zariyah said in a broken voice.

She was faking it, but it was very effective on the king and the crown prince. Beads of tears flowed out from her
