Chapter 141 - "If I Had Things My Way"

"What do you mean by that Lilith?" Jasmine asked. 

'Are you saying that he is going after our families?" Marlene asked and Lilith sighed. 

'That's not what I am saying" she responded. 

'Than what are you saying exactly?" Marlene asked. 

"I don't think the other kingdoms will give into him that easily which might give him the idea to annihilate them all, they are not his target as yet but if they don't surrender to him soon enough they will be" she responded and they gasped.

"I get it now," Ash said and Lilith smiled. 

'I am glad you do" she replied then he sighed. 

'What are you going to do Lilith?" Ash asked and she folded her cuffs then looked at them and smiled. 

"I have to rule and prepare the army" she responded and other eyes widened. 

'Lilith you can't do that" Jasmine said and the girl sighed. 

"Unfortunately we don't have much of a choice this time and uh... Val did he make the announcement?" she asked and Val smiled. 

'He is currently in the process of doing it my lady" he responded. 

"Good, get things ready for me," she said. 

"As you wish" he replied then walked away. 

'Is there nothing you can do Lilith?" Vivian asked as Cosmo stared at the princess and Lilith sighed. 

"No there is nothing that I can do or say that will help this situation, for now, you guys are on your own" she responded and Vivian frowned then she walked up to the girl and patted her on the head and Vivian hugged her. 

"Be safe and don't die on us" Vivian said and Lilith smiled. 

"Can't promise that" she replied as Vivian raised up. 

"You are going to risk your life to get what he wants?" Vivian asked and Lilith smiled then Cosmo gr abed her by the arm and hugged her. 

"Stay alive," Cosmo said and Lilith's eyes widened as they started glowing black and the girl raised off of her. 

"Right now I don't care whether I die or live, but you guys stay safe, I will be in the throne room" she replied then walked away and Cosmof owned as Vivian placed her hand on Cosmo's shoulder and the girl looked at her. 

'I am sure she will be just fine, Lilith's really strong and no one knows that better than you Cosmo, come on let's go have breakfast" Vivian said and the girl sighed. 

'Rex.. thanks for coming" Cosmo said and Rex smiled then hugged the girl as tears came to her eyes. 

"She will be fine, I will make sure of that" he replied and she sighed. 

'How can you Rex?" she asked and he frowned as she raised up then sighed. 

'Things are getting worse, I thought they would finally go back to being normal but clearly, I was wrong, I don't want to have to be the one fighting her Rex, I can't even think about it much less doing it" she said as the others went to the dining hall. 

"You won't be the one fighting if someone must then that will be me, you might be the mighty red dragon but you don't have what it takes to fight her, you and I both know that" he replied and she smiled. 

'I am glad about that in many ways" she said. 

'I know you are but I have what it takes to do it and I will if I must, the realms are getting ready for war.. they will be an all-out war amongst the kingdoms, I don't think it's one that can be avoided" he replied and her eyes widened as they trembled and he brother disappeared. 

'An all out war... the king caused all of this, the realms ever even thought of it before but now I guess they don't have much of a choice and they are scared because the one and only phoenix considered one of the most powerful creatures to ever roam the earth is standing by his side and if she fights against them, their chances of winning the war against the king are very slim" Cosmo said to herself with a sigh then walked to the dining room. 

'You okay Cosmo?" Vivian asked as the girl entered the dining room and sat down. 

"Cosmo" Ahs called out as tears ran down the girl's cheek and Vivian gasped as Cosmo looked up at them. 

'I don't know what to do, I feel helpless, I cannot help her" Cosmo said and Lilith overheard her for she was about to join them for breakfast and upon hearing what Cosmo said she frowned. 

'I don't want you guys to help, I appreciate that you want to but it's better if you guys stay out of this"  Lilith said to herself. 

"Hey guys," Lilith said as she walked into the room and they looked at her as she sat down and Lucas came in after her. 

"Lilith they will accept you since you are not your father' Lucas said as he sat down and she smiled. 

"Thanks for taking care of that" she replied and he smiled. 

'You don't have to worry about that" Lucas said and she sighed as she took her food and her friends kept staring at her. 

'What is it?" she asked and Cosmo frowned. 

'Cosmo si there something you want to talk to me about?" she asked. 

'No, when are you going to make your presence before the people as their queen?" Cosmo asked and Lilith sighed. 

"In about an hour" she responded. 

'Oh okay," she said then they continued eating. 

'Lilith is your father coming here?" Jasmine asked and Lilith swallowed deeply.

'I am not sure about that, he said he will but after everything is settled and I am fully accepted" she responded. 

"I see so he is coming to cause more problems, if I had things my way,  I really wish I can kill him," Cosmo said and Lilith smiled.
