Monarch of Darkness

Evan looked at his mother who was holding his hand tightly. Her face was full of tear stain and fresh tears were still pouring out of her eyes. Evan stretched his hand and wiped the tear drops flowing out of her eyes. "Mom, you are a big girl already. So, please stop crying", Evan tried to lighten the heavy atmosphere. Then he looked at his aunt and said, "Aunt, don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Brianna who was looking at Evan didn't find any worry in the eyes of Evan, she only find determination and confidence in his eyes.

Seeing Evan like this, Brianna felt better in her heart and sobbing sound of Olivia grew lower. "Don't act like a big guy Evan, you are still a child", Brianna rebuked Evan while wiping her tear. Seeing the heavy atmosphere somehow lighten inside the room, Evan sighed in relief.

He looked at Aaron who was cursing earlier. He had already got some idea about what is transpiring but he asked to confirm his suspicion. "Uncle Aaron, can you tell me clearly about these matters now", Evan looked at Aaron. He didn't want to stay in dark any longer.

Aaron looked toward Brianna and Brianna nodded. "Little Prince, how much do you know about our thousand swords kingdom?", Aaron asked. "Not much but I have already read about some basic details in library. I already know that thousand swords kingdom have three thousand years of heritage and our founding ancestor was called thousand swords monarch. Our kingdom was named after him", Evan replied. "You are right", Aaron nodded. "Then do you know about our neighbouring kingdoms?", Aaron asked again.

"Scarlet eye kingdom lays in our south, Golden orb kingdom lays in west, Black ridge kingdom lays in East and as for northern border, it was house to large number of magical beasts, Northern mountain range", Evan replied calmly. Seeing the scholarly demeanour of Evan, eyes of Aaron lit up. He asked excitedly, "Little prince, I wonder where do you learn all of this? According to my knowledge queen Brianna had forbidden everyone to not tell you anything related to thousand sword kingdom"?contemporary romance

"I have read all of these in library",Evan replied. "It is good that you love to read. A royal prince like you must have knowledge about the way of this world", Aaron encouraged Evan. Evan knew that this second general under his father was a scholar and so he didn't find it surprising that Aaron was encouraging him to read more.

"Then, do you know who are our enemies?", Aaron looked toward Evan seriously. Evan shook his head. He really didn't know anything about the enemies of thousand sword kingdom. "Ok then, I will tell you about the enemies of our thousand sword kingdom now",Aaron declared.

"Evan, you are already 8 years old and you have already started your path of magical cultivation. Path of magic was riddled with many difficulties but if you want to be powerful, you must overcome it. There are somethings, you can't run away from even if heaven and Earth collapses. You must act as a man and take responsibility. Your grandfather has left the kingdom for closed door cultivation and no one has any idea about his location. Your father is also missing, at this moment. So, you must know, what it implies. for the kingdom. Thousand swords kingdom needs you", Aaron looked at Evan seriously. Evan nodded and a pondering expression appeared on his face.

"Our kingdom never initiated war with other kingdoms unless they offend us first. But if you look at our neighbours, they are busy in attacking and destroying kingdoms. In this world of Magical cultivation, strength reigned supreme. It is a dog eats dog world. So, as long as they can receive more benefits, they do not care how many lives are going to be buried for their cause.

Previously, the power of your grandfather was deterrent against such covetous glares. After your father succeeds your grandfather, he singlehandedly suppressed many enemies. But now none of them is present. So, our kingdom is facing it's biggest danger since it's establishment", Aaron added again and Evan nodded seriously. He could feel that their situation was very perilous at this moment.

"We are safe from our south side for now. But on our west lies golden orb kingdom and behind them is golden orb sect, they are coveting our lands since a long time. Now border disputes are going on with them on western frontier. In our eastern side, lays black ridge kingdom which is our sworn enemy. As for incidents happening inside our kingdom, these two forces most be behind it", Aaron stated solemnly.

Evan fell into deep thinking for a while. "There are many complications, I will solve them eventually. Trying to take me as a hostage, I will make sure to destroy anyone behind it",a cold glint appeared in the eyes of Evan.

"When will I have to leave?", Evan asked to Aaron.

"They will only wait till early morning. They are giving us only a single nights' time to decide", Lucas said while giving answer in the place of Aaron. "No problem with me", Evan smiled slightly. "Uncle Lucas, can you accompany me to a place", Evan looked toward Lucas. Lucas nodded his head in agreement.

"Brother Lucas, I will go with this little brat, handle this representative of Northpeak kingdom till I return", Brianna said from side.

After sometime Evan left with his aunt. They went sneakily because they didn't want to alert the representative of Northpeak kingdom. They flew towards nearby white orchid forest.

A big wolf was lying on a raised stone bed. It's body was shining with a lustrous blue colour and It was lying lazily on top. Suddenly two figure flew toward the resting place of wolf. Many wolfs got alarmed because of two Intruders sudden appearance. Obviously,it was Bigblue and the two Intruders were Evan and his aunt Brianna.The wolfs who were preparing to howl,calmed down quickly. They identified the two intruders. They knew their leader was very friendly towards this human child. So,they didn't interrupt them.

Evan shouted,"Bigblue, come here" and soon a big wolf appeared in front of Evan.
