The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 830 - Illusion



slowly darkness enveloped her as a chill crept from her feet to her hands and slowly to her neck and head, Lory could feel a chill as she inhaled the air around her. suddenly her body felt numb and increasing pain came from the nape of her neck to her back, Lory feel her body stiffened as a cold sweat ran down on her back it felt like the tip of a knife slowly etched her skin, Lory knew this feeling.

she knew this pain too well, she never thought she would ever experience this horrible sensation again, this excruciating pain was the start before her cursed lashing out.

The pain was so intense that both Lory's hands went limp, her consciousness gradually fade then follow by various voices screaming and shouting in her head.

'It's your fault!'

'We all die because of you'

'Your Mother die because of you!'

'You can't even protect your father'

'You are weak!'

'An now all your new friends will die because of you!'

'Zhao Li Xin will die because of you!'

'It's your fault - it's your fault!'

.

Lory can't bear to hear anymore, she cover her ears and shouted helplessly "SHUT UP –SHUT UP!'

But the voices didn't stop instead they become louder and louder.

  'Princess, save us!'

'Your highness, they're coming!'

'Herriond is burning, your highness!"

'Yor higness!'

'PRINCESS!'

All the screams ringing in her ears made her head hurt and she fell to her knees while covering her ears as she desperately tried to block their calling, nevertheless, her desperate effort was all futile. Tears streamed down her face, the stress, guilt, and pain she had buried deep inside her heart burst like a broken dam.

Suddenly she felt like she was drowning in darkness and pained, it was too unbearable she shouted helplessly "Stop…I can't do this again…please stop -JUST STOP!" Lory sobbed like a scared little girl, all the memory rush in hitting every corner of her brain with sorrow, Lory crouch on the floor as the cursed snake in her body enlarge for the first after Lory found the fourth fragment, something evokes the cursed and it make the cursed out of control and the stronger the cursed become the weaker Lory minds become.

her sanity slowly faded as she began to sink into pure madness, but in the midst of the confusion, a soft low voice appeared like raindrops in the desert which instantly erased all her doubts "Lory never forgets who you are..."

Lory's shoulders jerked and her trembling body suddenly stopped. It was a voice she could never forget until the day she died, suddenly a strong palm gently patted her head it was a touch that evoked the fondest memories of her past, Lory then heard a whisper in his ear. 

'You are the Lucient heir…'

The tears from her eyes instantly stopped as the panic in her heart disappeared. Lory's mind gradually became clear. Lory finally realized that she was under the influence of Lazarus again, it was all just an illusion to mess with her mind.

Lory was annoyed for falling to the same tricks over and over, she thought her mental strength had improved these past few years but who would have thought some scars never faded and that snake find a way to manipulate it.

The Bluebell flower on its neck bloomed with a faint light, the flower stalks grew longer and longer like vines and wrapped around the snake's body and tied it tightly, the snake struggled but the strings tightened then from the flower branch. Bluebells bloomed and shone as Lory's body was enveloped in a purplish-blue light.

'Remember Lory, you are the King's daughter'

suddenly there was a burst of light and the darkness was swept away like the rays of dawn sweeping over the darkness of the night.

Lao Min Na and Lory were thrown into the air as the room exploded, Lory and Lao Min Na floated in the air until gravity pulled them back to the ground.

Mong Yi was startled by the sound of an explosion, he hurriedly opened the door of the room and gaped at the room where all the walls and roof were blown to pieces.

"Ma...Madam!" Mong Yi screams for Lory but from behind him, a black shadow flashes ahead of him.

"My lord!" Mong Ki shouted as he chased after Zhao Li Xin as well as Jin Hao and Bei Li Yan.

The body of the woman who was possessed by Lao Min Na hit the ground and she rolled over until she stopped and the woman fainted.

Lory could feel his body dipping to the ground, Lory's purple eyes looked up at the blue sky, no worry on her face, the corner of her lips curved upward she stretch her hand to the sky Then she heard a thundering squawk 

[LORY!]

Lory see a white bolt of light run to her in speed and Lory smile [What took you...so long]

Light penetrated into Lory's chest and a pair of wings grew on Lory's back, but before anyone could see the pair of wings on Lory's back suddenly Zhao Li Xin slammed his fist into the ground halfway the impact of his punch made people and small stall swept away by a gust of wind, the dust, and debris lift to the air and successfully complete their sight for a while.

  "Don't let them see Lory!" Zhao Li Xin commands Jin Hao and the others..

Jin Hao and the others knew that people were still not ready to accept someone like Lory among them, they couldn't let outsiders knew about Lory's existance, at least not yet. Jin Hao quickly racked his brain thinking about how to solve this problem, he suddenly remembered the useless plant that had been stored in his spatial ring for so many years that Jin Hao end up forgotten to throw it away.

Jin Hao took the plant out of his ring, the plant looked like weeds but had small yellow flowers all over it.

Jin Hao threw a handful of herbs to Bei Li Yan and the Mong brothers then he instructed them in hurry "Burn the plant and direct the smoke at the people around us!"

without waiting any longer they did as Jin Hao told them to, as soon as the people around them suddenly smelled a very sweet smell, and suddenly their vision became blurry but strangely they felt a strange calming sensation like sleeping in the warm bed. 

They all stood blankly with a strange expression on their face while Lory landed gently on the ground, Zhao Li Xin rushed towards Lory and then hugged her tightly.

Lory could hear how fast Zhao Li Xin's heart drummed, she had once again worried Zhao Li Xin to death, feeling sorry Lory hugged Zhao Li Xin's back tightly.

"Sorry to worry you...again?" Lory's voice was etched with regret.

Zhao Li Xin cupped Lory's face and checked for any wounds on her face or body. 

Zhao Li Xin realized Lory's appearance had returned to its original state, perhaps due to her fight with Lao Min Na. Lory's purple irises glittering like stars were so beautiful no matter how many times he looked at it those eyes still take his breath away.

However, due to the chaotic situation, Zhao Li Xin recovered from her fascination faster than usual, "What happened?" Zhao Li Xin asked.

The wings on Lory's back disappeared and Girsha had changed from a white orb and transforms into a bird again then perched on Lory's shoulder [Why do I feel Lazarus' black magic?]

"Because Lao Min Na is here or at least her consciousness" Lory set her sights on the woman passed out on the street, seeing her motionless Lory rushed towards the woman then she checked the woman's condition even though she was still breathing, but the effect of the spell possession was hard to predict.

Zhao Li Xin heard Lory's words then he looked at the unconscious woman's face and frowned, not only did she have a different appearance, but she also had a different aura, and aura was something that no one could fake.

"She doesn't look like that 'Lao' woman" he looks at the woman coldly disregard her pitiful state, this woman hurt his Princess.

"No, she was possessed by Lao Min Na before" Lory explained.

"Possession spell?!" Girsha was flabbergasted, it took a lot of energy to conjure a Possession spell.

"Lao Min Na's strength seems to be increasing." Girsha's voice was full of worry.

"And so her cruelty" Lory mutter quietly then she rubbed her hands together and carefully placed her hand on the unconscious woman's temple.

"What are you doing Lory?" Zhao Li Xin grabbed Lory's hand and he look at her inquisitively.

"I'm trying to help her, this woman is innocent," Lory earnestly said.

Zhao Li Xin expected this answer still it can't diminish his worries, "Are you going to be okay?" it's a stupid question because Lory and Zhao Li Xin have a different standard when it comes to Lory's safety, yet he can't stop to ask.

"Don't worry, what could happen to me?" Lory jokes to lighten the mood.

  "LOTS!" Zhao Li Xin and Girsha shouted simultaneously,

Lory mouth twitch 'Okay, I can't deny it'
