Chapter 97 - The Sealed Power

" The Demar brothers, they found the way to the Dimensional world. "

Others curiously asked, " where is it?"

" Inside the Envoy Salian College- old graveyard!"

Alex and Emmy now knew why all of their crazy dreams directed them to the old graveyard. This was the key which was hidden right in front of their eyes, but how come none of them including elder Rotrigues had seen the abnormality of the land till now?

" But that graveyard is just a barren land and some say it is haunted..."

" Haunted?? What do you mean by that?"

Janet then told the local news that circulated before a few years that some people had seen shadows approaching the land on full moon nights and after the Salian family had taken over the college, no one was allowed to go out to the area as it was restricted.

" But when I asked Dean to allot me that room but he didn't say anything and handed me the keys quickly."

Alex coughed and Jordan rolled his eyes. Both of them knew that the Dean was in bad airs with the Salian crown prince and party and he knew that Alex didn't like anyone to enter his area. So when Emmy asked specifically for the room opposite to Alex's room, he happily gave the keys.

( A/N - only a few know the real reason, remember Emmy came to this college due to the family will.)

" Emmy, there is one thing, there was a protection layer which I had cracked for us, see only our group members are seen at the lakeside beside the old graveyard, right, it is because others won't be able to even see the path. They will see the barren graveyard only, you can Janet as she was not able to see it before, then one day Juliet had shown her with her that place. "

" But what about me then, I was able to see it on the first day itself."

"Yes, you were, it might be due to your powerful aura. Remember, I told you about your aura is different from others, even I couldn't penetrate through it."

Emmy nodded, but still, she had some other doubts inside her mind. The group were happy that Alex was being crowned before they returned, so it meant they could do any kind of investigation at any Salian lands as the Salian king is one of them.

Soon they reached the crown prince residency, the head servant who Alex respected the most, came to receive the group.

Emmy greeted the head servant while she was entering the building, " Uncle Neshag, how have you been?"

The person named Neshag was not any ordinary servant, he was the most skilled guard beside Alex, he was a lone fighter whom Alex met accidentally on the mountains. When Alex had found this man 10 years ago, he was badly bruised and lost his memories. So feeling pity about him, the young Alex welcomed him to the Palace to be his bodyguard.

When Neshag recovered, he could only remember his name and his combat skills, nothing else, so Alex took him in and when he was made the crown prince, Alex made uncle Neshag all in all of his residency.

Uncle Neshag was delighted to have his master and his friends back. He gladly smiled at Emmy, " Welcome back, this time you gave me a big trouble, isn't it a big girl?"

Emmy nodded her head like a child while apart from Jordan and Alex, all others were confused. What trouble can Emmy give to the head butler?

Uncle Neshag then told everyone that the Salian queen had sent her guards to summon Emmy thrice but finally was stopped by the second prince. The King was angry after knowing it was Emmy who broke Victor's hands, however, Victor asked his father to forgive Emmy because she was the woman he loved and he confessed that he tried to misbehave with her, so she attacked him.

Alex couldn't figure out why Victor took all the blame instead of pointing at them. This was indeed a great opportunity for him to strike yet he didn't cause any troubles.

" Then what happened?"

" What can happen? The elders got involved and Victor was banished to the northern tower again, this time it was for 6 months."

The group were happy, so Victor won't be able to collaborate with the black world till they finish the course and come back.

The next day, the whole Salian clan were present for the great day. To celebrate the grand day, the people had decorated the place in a golden colour. They made their crown prince's favourite delicacies and the crown residency was bustling with people who came to give the prince the gifts. 

Yes, Alex was officially to be crowned as the king and each one of the Salian tribe wanted to see the function. On the stage, the elders gave the speech and asked the king to remove his crown. Then afterwards, Alex was called to the podium to be crowned.

Alex walked towards the stage and looked at the elders as well as the former king. Finally, the time has come to disclose the biggest secret of his birth. Alex closed his eyes and with determination, he opened them.

" Dear people, the love which you all have given me is not small. I will always be respectful and show my gratitude for it. But, I am not worthy to be your king as I am not one of you."

The whole crowd gasped, then followed by it was complete silence. Everyone was confused by hearing their lovely prince who grew up in front of their eyes saying that he was not one of them. But they knew that Alex never said things unwantedly, there must a strong reason for it, so they patiently waited for Alex to complete his words.

On the stage, all the four elders as well as king were shocked upon hearing Alex revealing something which only they knew. Emmy was watching all of them closely, literally except for their group, all the others were shocked except for uncle Neshag.

" You knew it right!"

Uncle Neshag smiled and didn't deny it. Emmy believed that he must be from the core world but why would he act as losing his memories?

" Child, what you are thinking is right, I am not from here but cannot disclose my identity as after knowing who I am, Alex wouldn't hate me and ask me to leave."

" Don't tell me you are his father."

This time uncle Neshag laughed out loud, he found it weird when this girl guessed things. However, not all guesses were correct but real close ones.

" Child, I am not worthy of that position but you are close, I am the person who was designated to be his godfather but that witch trapped us and tried to harm Triana. Byron could only seal his powers to safeguard her and send her to Maaran. We both were trapped and prisoned. Ten years ago, my friend freed me but caught himself under her clutches while trying to escape and rest you know, how I came here."

Emmy could see the pained expression of uncle Neshag's face whenever he mentioned Alex's father. She didn't want to break the bond between these two men, so she decided to keep it as a secret from Alex.

Emmy then remembered what elder Gastorie had mentioned to them about Alex's parents.

"Complicated, it was good that your mother never intended to kill the fruit which she bore with him. Your mother could never love your father as he had crossed his limits on their day itself."

" If his father really loved his mother, I will make Alex accept him but not now, we need to find the dimensional world."

" What did you say? The Dimensional world?"

Sensing the unusual expression on uncle Neshag's face, Emmy knew that he wasn't new to this world. Accurately, he knows about it well and is scared.

"Yes, we are going to the Dimensional world."

" Never, I won't allow it, you can not go to her regime now. You are powerless and she might kill you all. That's what she needs..."

Author's Note

" HAPPY NEW YEAR"

I wish all my sweet readers a prosperous new year. The year 2020 locked me up inside the room and encouraged me to write this novel which I had seen in my dreams fours years back.

Yes, I dream a lot and some dreams usually are very scary. So after getting up, I quickly used to write about it as a snippet in my diaries. During 2020, I got a lot of time to open my old diaries and read those….

Finally, I was inspired to write it into a novel. Hope you are enjoying this story, please if you have any comments about it, please comment it on the chapter comments.

Also, what about publishing two chapters a day? Please let me know your opinion about it.
