Chapter 255 - Enchantress!

Miso looked at the man in surprise, kneeling before her. The mightiest king of all lands, was kneeling down surrendering himself before her, so easily?

She looked at him, for a few seconds while Khufu waited for his punishment patiently. A sense of anger and revenge filled her heart! She looked at the sun angrily, for a few seconds and a large vortex, ablazen with fire surrounded the sky. She looked at the round shining mass in anger and looked at the man kneeling down before her. Suddenly, tears rolled down her eyes and she blinked, jerking her head sideways.

She turned her back towards the man, tears rolling down her eyes constantly. "I can not do it."

Khufu looked up in surprise! The girl had turned her back towards him and the vortex above him was slowly dissipating. He got up and walked towards her. "Why can't you do it?" He looked at her tear stained face.

"Because, what happened today was not your fault and you have already been punished for disrobing me." Miso quickly collected her calm and tried to sound casual.

"Very well! Than shall we start with the lessons, teacher?"

"Offcourse!"

Meanwhile...

"Your highness! The girl has seen everything with her own eyes! Do you think she will not tell it to others?" A dark haired man, with strong built was standing next to the king.

Horus caressed his long beard, thinking about it.

"Hmm....We have to find a way to keep her mouth shut. If she gets to know that these girls are actually kidnapped, she will not keep quiet. Their families think they are dead."

King Horus, got every girl kidnapped he set his eyes on. All these girls were held captive in a secluded building, where nobody could enter. Some of the girls were living in the building from more than 10 years*. Only the king's most trusted guards could enter its premises. Even Khufu and Dalilah were not aware of it. They always thought that the king only hires prostitutes to play around, but never could they imagine his deep dark secret.

"So should we kill her?"

"Hmm! It's not going to be easy. She is an enchantress!"

"What?"

"Yes! I saw it with my own eyes. We could not lay our hands on the previous enchantress, but this time, her ashes will be mine!"

3 days later.....

"Do you know your sword can not only kill but also heal and protect?" Miso took Khufu's sword in her hands, and looked at it in surprise.

"How?"

"It is made up of a metal, consisting of Five elements of nature. It is impossible to bring these five elements together, untill and unless it is made from the ashes of an enchantress."

"Enchantress! Like you?"

"Hmm." Tear dropped down from Miso's eye, as she looked at the sword.

Khufu noticed the change in her facial expressions, as she looked at the sword again and again.

"But, I thought you are the only enchantress in all the lands. Do you know any other, who died?

Miso nodded and touched the sword lovingly with her hands. "My mother."
