Chapter 303 SPOILER

Name:SORCERESS 101 Author:WolfsBane
Nathalia Watson was just only five years old when she was first sent in the Realm of the Gods to learned how to become the next Queen of Darkness and rule over the Underworld.

It was also then that she learned for the first time that she was actually the daughter of the previous Lord of Darkness.

Fates of Gods, as well as the Demigods like Nathalia, were determined by the fate spinners.

Fate spinners had three personas which each represent the past, the present, and last is the future.

These fate spinners were collectively known as Moira.

They used to determine the events of the worlds as well as the fates of the Gods and the Demigods alike through the mystic spinning of threads that represent their individual fates.

Moira of the future, gifted Nathalia a fated love right after she received her father's post.

But she was not allowed to meet the other party until it was not the right time.

A time which would be decided by the fate spinners as well.

It was only after almost three and a half decades of waiting did she finally had news about her fated husband.

Just today, the Moira of the present visited her on her dream.

And on her dream, Moira of the present told her that she would be meeting her fated husband today. Just as how they promised her.

Aidoneous, her father, was the only God who did not receive a fated love from any of the three Moira's before.

The fate spinners that time thought that it was actually for his own good. To which the Council of Gods agreed readily.

Since they also believed that it would just distract the Lord of Darkness from fulfilling his duties in the Underworld.

After all, Aidoneous tasked is not just about maintaining the peace and order among the creatures of the dark.

He was also responsible for guiding the souls of the deceased into the After Life.

But more than that is the fact that there were no Goddesses in the Realm of the Gods who were willing to marry Aidoneous and accompany him in ruling the Underworld.

This was the most depressing reason why the Lord of Darkness was deprived of a lover.

Never did they imagine that this will eventually lead Aidoneous to become emotionally and physically detached from the Realm of the Gods

He preferred the company of humans over the company of his fellow Gods and Demigods.

Aidoneous used to spend most of his time lingering in the mortal world.

And in the end, he eventually fell in love with a mortal girl, named Corina. Nathalia's mother.

A love affair between a God and a mere mortal was forbidden and against the rules in the Realm of Gods.

So when the Council of Gods learned about Aidoneous affair with a mortal, they instantly set them apart.

The Moira of the past felt disheartened about this. Because she believed that all of this would not happen if they did not neglect him and if they only gave him a fated love of his own.

So one day, the Moira of the past talked to Aidoneous in his dream and taught him what he needs to do so that he could elope with Corina.

But of course, the Moira of the past also told the Lord of Darkness about the price that he had to pay for this.

A price that ; Aidoneous was willing to pay.

On the very next day, Aidoneous headed to the Mount of Epiro to talked with the Council of Gods.

There he asked for a cup of water from the Fountain of Life and Death.

Because Aidoneous, had accumulated a lot of good deeds over time, the Council of God had no other choice but to accede to his request

Especially so when this was the only request that he had made so far to his brothers and sisters ever since they had decided to rule over the world and different realms.

Aidoneous asked for the water from the Fountain of Life and Death knowing that the liquid would get rid of his power as well as his immortality.

Once he drank the water from the fountain, he would become no different from a mortal, which Aidoneous desired the most.

All he wanted was to spend the rest of his life with the woman he loved the most and lived a normal mortal life

The Lord of Darkness, Aidoneous, eventually decided to resign on his post as the chief responsible for ruling the Underworld.

But aside from losing all his power and immortality, Aidoneous also have to make another deal with the fate spinners as well as the Council of Gods.

He would have no choice but to gift his firstborn to the Realm of Gods.

So that it would be trained to be the next ruler of the Underworld as well as to continue his duties and responsibilities in the Underworld.

Naturally, as the Lord of Darkness' only daughter, Nathalia became the one responsible to continue where her father left off

At the young age of five, she was sent to a far off place to study leadership and everything she needs to know about ruling a world.

To which she was not alone, because the sons and daughters of the other Gods and Demigods were also sent to that specific place.

And from there, learn about everything they need to know regarding their duties and responsibilities in the Realm of Gods.

The three Moira watched over Nathalia over the years.

The Council of Gods also maintained a tight watch over the girl

They cannot allow for that same mistake to happen

Both the Council of Gods as well as the three fate spinners were worried that Nathalia, just like her father, would going to eventually leave her post once she fell in love.

So to avoid the history from repeating itself, the three Moira and the Council of Gods agreed to bestow her with a fated husband as soon as she became the next ruler of the Underworld.

Her husband should be someone who could accompany and help her with her duties as the chief mistress of the Underworld.

But just like on her father's case, there is no God who was willing to accompany the next Queen of Darkness and lived with her together at the Underworld

That was when the Moira of the future decided to intertwin Nathalia's thread into a nameless child that she will going to meet on her first ever mission as the new chief mistress of the Underworld.

***YEAR 2019***

Five hours before midnight, on the same day when Aiden was tricked into becoming the sacrificial groom for the legendary Queen of Darkness

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[Your highness, Please wake up. You have to prepare and get ready for your wedding.]

The talking owl said as it flew over and swooped down to her master's sleeping body.

"Five more minutes..."

Nathalia said with a groggy voice.

Then she rolled on the other side of her bed and switched her sleeping position.

Then to make sure that Hootie won't be able to disturbed her on her sleep, Nathalia put a pillow

over her sleepy head.

Hoping that this could help her get rid of ; the noise coming from her nagging pet

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[But your highness, you have been saying that same excuse for more than an hour already! At this rate, you would definitely going to run late on your own wedding!"

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[We still need to curl your hair! Paint your nails! Scrub you clean and anoint you with rose oil!!!]

Hootie, the talking owl, said in a more urgent tone than before.

There were simply too many things in her mind that they needed to do before the wedding.

They were already running out of time, and yet the bride was still lazing around her bed.

"Leave me alone. I can do all those things with just a snap of my hand."

Nathalia said with a muffled voice since her head was still under her pillow.

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[No! You can't do that, no magic! We have to prepare everything with our hearts. This was your wedding! You can only get married once in your life!]

"Oh c'mon?! Can you please give it a rest??? If you are really that excited about that wedding, why don't you just go and marry that man for yourself instead??"

Unable to take Hootie's nagging anymore, Nathalia snapped back at her pet.

But she soon regretted doing it because it only made the remaining sleepiness in her body to leave altogether making her wide awake again...

"Ahhhrrrrgggg... I want to sleeeeeepppppp"

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[But your highness, you have to get up now and prepare for your wedding. Your groom was already on is way to the venue and I will certainly won't marry no the man for you!]

Hootie declared with conviction

"Err???"

Nathalia did not expect that Hootie would actually take her last words in face value.

"Why would I marry a bare skin and featherless creature like that man??? I prefer those who have thick feathers that could warm my nest during cold nights..."

Hootie said in an almost squeaking voice as she reimagined her ideal mate.

"Tss..."

Nathalia left her pet to indulge herself in her own idealism.

While Hootie was still busy in her daydream, Nathalia quietly made her way to the bathroom to finally clean herself.

When Hootie finally recovered from her daze and saw that Nathalia's bed was empty, she started to panic right away.

Her imagination run wild almost in an instant as she pictured out all kinds of scenarios in her silly little mind.

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[Oh no!!! Your Highness?!! Where are you! Did she just run away??? Did she elope with someone else?? Did she jump off a building because she don't want to get married?? Where is she?? Where is she??!!!!! I have to ; find her!!!!!]

"Quit your nonsense, Hootie! I 'm on the bathroom taking a shower"

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[Ohhh???? Is that so?? Very good.]

Hootie heaved a sigh of relief and reverted back to her calm self when she finally heard Nathalia's voice coming from the bathroom.

Just like what Hootie said, it was indeed Nathalia's wedding day.

Errr... I mean night.

It was a night wedding, after all

Considering that it would be held at exactly 12 midnight somewhere along a local graveyard

What a great venue for a wedding, right???

Great just great.

Nathalia could only roll her eyes whenever she was reminded about her wedding reception.

"Whoever was that ; jerk who thought about the idea of exchanging wedding vows at midnight and choosing a graveyard as a venue, I will screw him!"

Nathalia's eyes glowed in malice as she thought about the best wedding gift that she would gift her husband on their first meeting.

"To hell with my wedding planner as well, whoever he is! Since you loved to think out of the box, I'll definitely make sure to gift you with the nicest box!"

Nathalia said in gritted teeth as she scrubbed herself more.

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[Your Highness, please hurry up... don't get late on your own wedding.]

It has not been five minutes yet since Nathalia entered her bathroom but she could already hear her pet, Hootie, nagging at her again.

"Gosh! Hootie! It's my wedding not yours. Why are you more excited than me??? Don't worry about me getting late. That wedding won't start without me, trust me.I'm the bride remember?? I'll surely won't run late. so relax."

To get herself free from her nagging pet, Nathalia decided to give Hootie something to do.

"Hootie, why don't you check that guy for me>??? hen Tell me how he looked like "

"HOOT! HOOT!"

[Roger that!]

Hootie said with a salute then with a puff, the talking owl vanished in thin air leaving nothing but a faint whiff of black smoke.

"That's more like it."

Nathalia said to herself when she confirmed that Hootie was no longer around. Most likely heading towards the graveyard where her groom was waiting for her.

To be honest, Nathalia was also curious to know how the other party looked like.

Little did she know that she and her groom already had their first encounter, ; 24 years ago.

Although Aiden that time was still a fetus yet. Since his mother was still carrying him on her womb, that time.

Aiden and his mom was ; actually the same mother and child that Nathalia saved in the past.

The case of missing soul that Nathalia Watsons made by mistake in her first day of being the Queen of Darkness back then.

The Angel of Death had already claimed the first missing soul, when Aiden's mother died and it was still out for a hunt for the other missing soul.

"Help me... help me please.... someone please help me..."

Out from her drunkard state, Nathalia heard a faint voice coming from somewhere.

"Help... please... I don't want to die yet... Please... My son.. please save him, if not me..."

The poor lady that was left lying in her own pool of blood continued to pray in desperation as she watched how her own blood continued to gush out from her stabbed wound like water from an open faucet

The lady tried her best ; to put pressure on her wound to stop it from bleeding but to no avail

"Please... if there is god, help me. Save my son. If gods were for real... Please help me...Just this once. Save my child. Pleeeeeease. HEEEEELLLPPPPPP!!!!!"

She sincerely prayed.

The woman was not actually a believer of God.

It has been more than a decade now since she last prayed.

Due to all the mishaps and misfortune that she had in her life, she no longer believed to God or to anything at all.

She thought that if gods were for real, then they might have abandoned her that was why all the bad things kept on happening to her life one after another.

But right now, she found herself praying again.

Hoping for some miracle to happen.

Praying for someone to appear and help her and her child

"Oh well, hick! s- sheeeesh wass ash-king foorrr a gawd!!! hick! I ahmm not a God. Ayemmm---- the QUEEN OF DARKNESS!!!! I'm out of it..."

{TRANSLATION: Oh well, she was asking for a God and I am not a god. I am--- the QUEEN OF DARKNESS!!!! I'm out if it...}

Nathalia said in a sluggish manner since she was already muddled headed due to being drunk.

"Your Highness... That's enough for tonight. Why don't we head back to your room so you could have some rest? You already had enough. You're drunk."

Hootie said as she flew over Nathalia. But Nathalia only swatted her away and shouted,

"Who said that I'm drunk??? I am not!!! I AM THE QUEEN OF DARKNESS!!!

She even spread both of her arms wide open when she shouted her title.

Before she gulped down another cold beer from the can that she was holding on her hand.

After she finished the content of the can in her hand, Nathalia looked around her again.

It was only then that she realized that she already finished all the canned beer that she had brought.

"Don't worry canny... you won't be the last.. okay???"

Nathalia said to the canned beer in her hand then she looked once again and see more of the empty cans of beer that littered the floor.

"Don't worry guys. I'll bring more here... Just wait for me, I'll be back"

She said as she waved them goodbye before she jumped down from the highest point of the building down to the solid ground.

She landed very smoothly on the ground like some action star in a movie.

The impact created mini air turbulence under her feet when she landed but it did not seem to bother her at all.

Then Nathalia walked towards one of the alleys as if nothing happened.

She made a sharp turned to the darkest alley and coincidentally, this was the same alley where the dying lady was left lying on her own pool of blood

"Help.. help me please..."

The other party managed to utter those words when she sensed that someone was around before the flicker of life slowly vanished in her eyes.

"Please help my son..."

The dying lady added before she finally closed her eyes.

"Haaayyy..why would I have to see this???? Haist. Consider yourself lucky, mortal girl. For now, I would be the one to answer your call. Since the gods that you were calling were all currently not available and out of your coverage area."

Nathalia said then she walked closer to the lady lying motionless on her own pool of blood and placed her hand over the other party's stabbed wound.

In an instant, the stabbed wound on the lady's abdomen started to heal at a rate visible to the naked eyes.

After doing that, Nathalia stood up and continue walking towards the direction of the nearest convenience store to buy her beer.

"I'll just take that as my congratulatory gift for finally becoming the Queen of Darkness. Though I should be the one who supposed to received a gift today... Haayyyy..."

She muttered to herself as soon as she got out of the convenience store, with another set of canned beers in her hands.

Then she made her way towards the darkest part of the street before completely vanishing in the shadow altogether.

Right after Nathalia vanished within the shadow, another silhouette of a man wearing an all-black outfit appeared out of thin air.

The other party casually walked out from the same shadow where Nathalia vanished and head towards the darkest alley.

A full moon was hung high above the sky and the light that came from it was enough to illuminate the beautiful feature of the man in black.

The man was wearing a full black tuxedo outfit that was perfectly fitted to his body.

Then he matched it with a pair of black leader shoes and on his head was a fedora hat of the same color

He has thin but sexy lips that were set in a tight straight line.

His facial expression was almost screaming that he was someone who never smiled before.

And it was only made more obvious by his set of beautiful but emotionless and cold gray eyes.

His eyes were the exact color of the clouds when it was about to rain.

A creased appeared on his spotless forehead when he saw the pool of blood in the alley.

But no one was there.

The lady that was lying on her own pool of blood just a while ago, was nowhere to be seen now.

"Another case of missing soul... TSS! What a headache. Just who could be that annoying deity that intercepted me this time??!"

The man in black muttered under his breath with a slightly irritated tone in his masculine voice.

"ACHOOOOOOO!!!"

"Who was that jerk talking bad about me behind my back????!"

Nathalia wondered in frustration after she sneezed.

Then she wiped the droplet of beer that stained the corner of her lips when she almost spit it out

...YEAR 1995...

The same year when Nathalia Watson finally ended her apprenticeship and officially became the newly appointed Queen of Darkness.

It actually took her over a century before she was able to claim her rightful title.

There was simply too much that she had to handle and learn before she could become the Queen of Darkness.

But thankfully, she had made it to the end and she was now over it.

"Young mistress, congratulations to your graduation. Where are we going to have the party???"

Although Hootie was congratulating her master, there was still a hint of sarcasm in her voice when she said that.

After all, it took her a whole one hundred freaking years just to graduate!!!

To which the other sons and daughters of the Gods and Demigods only took around twenty years at most.

That was a difference of five folds!

Nathalia obviously heard the edge of sarcasm in her pet's voice but she decided not to pay it any heed so as not to destroy the mood of the night.

The night was dark and the moon was bright.

There were also millions of stars that were scattered above them as if pieces of diamonds spilled in the boundless sky.

Just perfect to set the mood for a party.

"Well, Hootie... From now on, you gonna start calling me as Your Highness."

Then with a snapped of her finger, Nathalia was already sitting at the rooftop if the highest building in sight

Well, apparently, Nathalia went straight to the mortal world as soon as she got her certificate of recognition for completing her studies.

Just like her father, Nathalia also developed a certain degree of fondness in this world.

There were simply too many great and amazing things that can be found in this world of mortals.

As such, she used to went to the mortal world whenever she had some spare time at her disposal and spent her time wandering around the mortal world and trying out new things

But although she like the mortal world, it would be an entirely different story when it comes to the humans who used to live in this world.

Because during those times that she studied in the Realm of Gods, she learned about many evil deeds that these humans had done throughout the history of mankind.

So despite being a half-human herself, Nathalia held little regard when it comes to the mortal.

Since Nathalia was currently sitting at the highest point of the city, then she could clearly see the beautiful lights dancing in the active nightlife.

The blaring sound of the horns honking from a distance can also be heard in the background.

She could clearly hear even the sound of the engines and cars as they passed by in the highway below the billboard where she was seated.

At some point, Nathalia could even hear the prayers of those desperate people who were on the verge of dying as they cried for help.

As the Queen of Darkness, Nathalia had already get used to it.

In fact, she no longer minded it even in the least.

Instead, she focused her attention on the beautiful scenery before her.

"Haaaaayyyy... this is what you call partying..."

She said with a contented sigh.

"But Young Mistresss, Errrr... I mean Your Highness..."

Hootie trailed off when she saw that Nathalia was glaring at her.

It was then that the talking owl realized her mistake and immediately changed the way she addressed her master.

"Your Highness, this is not what the humans called partying. Partying has drinks, and foods and loud and lively music, as well as lots and lots of dancing. It should be fun"

There was a spark in Hootie's eyes when she described the kind of party that she has on her mind.

The talking owl was too caught up with her own fantasies as she described her ideal settings for a party.

As such, she failed to notice the sneer that was pasted in Nathalia's face.

Nathalia knew right from the start that her pet was more idealistic than her.

Hootie was normally like that.

That was why she was not surprised at all when she saw the other party behaving like that.

"Tss.."

Nathalia just let Hootie by herself and decided not to pay her any heed at the moment

Then with another snap of her finger, a bucket of chicken drumsticks and a couple of cold canned beers materialized out of thin air.

"Now, this is what I call partying."

Nathalia said as she chunked a large portion of meat from the chicken drumstick on her hand.

"SERIOUSLY?????!!!"

Hootie almost went hysterical when she saw what her master had brought.

"This is not how you should party. Show some class, Your Highness."

Hootie even stressed out her words when she said 'Your Highness'

To which Nathalia only reacted to her with a raised eyebrow.

"Gawd! You should have at least chose a bottle of red wine over these cheap-looking canned beers."

"Ohh Hootie... Can't you please stop nagging at me even just for this night??? Let me celebrate my graduation the way I like it."

Nathalia said to her ever so nagger pet before she gulped down another mouthful of beer.

Hootie was always like that.

She used to nag at her at almost everything that she did in her life.

If only this talking owl was not a gift from her dad, she must have strangled it already."

"But------"

"No more buts, Hootie!"

Nathalia cut her out before the other party could even say another word.

"Besides, why are you even complaining about the drinks??? It's not as if you would drink with me?"

She said as she opened another can of beer and gulped it down, bottoms up.

The newly appointed Queen of Darkness planned to drink to her heart's content that night.

"TSS. This ungrateful kiddo. I just wanted to remind her that tonight will be her first encounter with her fated husband. But she doesn't want to listen to me at all."

Hootie said under her breath as she watched her master gulped the beer one after another.

But Nathalia was not a heavy drinker at all.

It only took around six cans of beer before Nathalia got all plastered.

Because she was a half goddess and a half-human, Nathalia had a tendency of getting tipsy for just over a few drinks.

So at that same night as well, Nathalia Watson the newly appointed Queen of Darkness got drunk for the first time in history.

She would never though that this night was actually the night that woud seal her life to the fated husband that she chose for herself as well.

A week had passed already ever since the incident in the town graveyard happened, and yet Aiden was still unconscious.

No one had any idea what exactly happened to him in the cemetery.

But everyone was wondering what could have caused him to faint like that, and be unconscious for that long.

To date, Aiden had been out for six days straight already.

Even those doctors who checked him did not know how to wake him up.

They could not give any definite answer as to why Aiden was still not waking up.

It was as if he was on the state of coma, yet his medical results showed otherwise.

There was no single thing that went wrong in any of the results of Aiden's full body checkups. Everything about him was all normal.

In short, he supposed to be perfectly fine.

Yet there he was, lying unconscious for a reason that no one knew.

Boss Jay and the fraternity boys were actually not that much of a vile character.

They might have forced Aiden to act as their sacrificial groom, but they still see to it that the other party's safety won't be compromised.

As such as soon as the clock hit 12 and it was already midnight, Boss Jay immediately sent Clark and his other subordinates to fetch Aiden in the town graveyard

It was just that the mist that night on the cemetery was excessive to the point that they could only barely see past their nose.

That itself gave them a hard time finding their way.

They had searched for Aiden's whereabouts for more than an hour or so before Clark finally saw him under the infamous hanging man tree.

Clark was given the shock of his life when he saw Aiden lying motionless on the ground.

Words were not enough to describe how scared he was that time and that same feeling radiated to everyone in the fraternity.

They were all scared beyond their wits when they thought about the possibility that they might have accidentally caused someone's death.

At that time, they really thought that Aiden was scared to death and died from a heart attack due to excessive anxiety for being left in such a creepy place all by himself in the middle of the night.

It was only when they had confirmed that Aiden was still breathing fine did Clark and the other fraternity boys heaved a sigh of relief.

Boss Jay initially brought Aiden's unconscious body to their fraternity house. But he sent him to the nearby hospital the next day.

He intended to be a good host and let the other party had a good rest before he would let him go.

But the situation did not allow him to do that.

Because as soon as the first sunlight broke out the next day, they noticed that Aiden did not seem to have a tendency of waking up anytime soon

As such, Boss Jay immediately ordered his underlings to bring Aiden to the nearby hospital to have him checked for any casualty.

To which his subordinates followed without any delay

They even instructed Clark to personally looked after Aiden until his full recovery.

After all, it was he who introduced Aiden in their place, to begin with.

Boss Jay made it sure that Aiden would be well taken care of.

He even sent him to the best hospital in town and never allowed Aiden to be left alone in the hospital ward

His subordinates, including Clark, took turns just to make sure that there will always be someone who would accompany Aiden in his entire stay at the hospital, day and night

Boss Jay thought to himself that they ought to do as much as that to Aiden since they brought him to this trouble, to begin with.

Aside from that, they also owed him a favor.

After all, they had never seen someone who had been as very cooperative as Aiden was.

They have thought that they would have to bribe some stranger again this year and pay a huge sum just to get someone to play as the sacrificial groom.

Just like what they usually do every year.

Yet Aiden agreed to it readily with just one simple request.

He really did them a huge favor!

It was for that reason that Boss Jay and his fraternity boys were trying their best to at least get even with Aiden.

. "To be honest, I really admire your courage back then"

Said Clark as he wiped Aiden's body with a clean cloth.

He had been the one doing that ever since the day that Aiden was admitted to the hospital.

Even though Aiden was unconscious and was currently incapable of communicating with him, Clark still talked to him regularly.

The doctor said that it was possible for Aiden to hear them despite being in deep sleep.

Over the course of six days that he had been taking turns with the other fraternity boys to accompany Aiden in the hospital, Clark started to had some time reflecting on his own action.

I was then that he started to feel sorry towards Aiden

Aiden had been very nice to him and to everyone in their workplace, yet instead of reciprocating his good deeds, he and his other workmates even brought him to harm in return.

Clark knew that Aiden was aware that they were trying to tricked him that night.

Yet he still persistently trust them thinking that by doing so, he will eventually be in good terms with him and the rest of their other workmates.

Clark could not help but feel bad about him for that. And his conscience was slowly starting to eat him whole as well.

At the same time, he could not help but admire Aiden's courage.

After all, who in their right mind would readily agree on standing beside a hanging man's tree alone in the middle of an abandoned cemetery?

Not to mention that they also had to play as a sacrificial groom to some unknown Queen of Darkness until midnight!

Even Boss Jay himself and his fraternity boys were not confident in completing that task if one would dare them.

That was why they used to trick someone else to do that sick frat ritual in their stead every year.

They did not believe a single thing about that make believed Queen of Darkness.

To put it simply, they were just merely trying to carry out ; their fraternity's yearly tradition of offering a virgin groom every night of the Halloween

Yet despite knowing that it was nothing but an urban legend that had been passed out to the succeeding generations of their fraternity, they still would not dare themselves to do it.

When Clark was finally done on cleaning Aiden, he returned back to his seat at the corner of the room.

He was just about to catch some sleep when he heard someone knocked on their door.

'Knock. Knock. Knock'

The sound of someone's knocking was followed by a series of heavy footsteps and it headed towards the direction that was next to Aiden's bed.

"How is he doing???"

Asked one of the newcomers.

His voice sounded so deep and gravelly which was enough for Aiden to picture him out in his mind as someone who had bulky muscles in his body.

He just barely regained his consciousness about a few seconds ago.

In fact the sound of someone knocking on the door was the first sound that registered on him as soon as he woke up.

But instead of opening his eyes right away, Aiden decided to observe his surroundings first by utilizing his ears.

He was afraid that the moment he opened his eyes, he would see the decomposing zombie priestess and that vixen queen of hers.

"He hasn't woken up yet even for once. He had been like that for six days already..."

Said the other one.

From how the other party's voice sounded, Aiden could assume that the one who just spoke was no other than Clark himself.

'Six days??? I have been asleep for six days straight?!!!!!!'

Aiden exclaimed inside his mind.

He could not believe it himself, despite hearing it with both of his own two ears.

He thought that he had been out for only half a day at most.

Never did he imagined that he actually has been in deep sleep for an entire six days!

The memory about his wedding with the Queen of Darkness felt like it only happened just a while ago.

In fact, he did not feel like someone who just woke up from a long sleep.

It was as if it was just a moment ago when he closed his eyes and the queen of darkness called him 'fool'.

'Wait! Was that a dream????'

Aiden though to himself with his eyes still close.
