Chapter 64 - TRIP TO ANOTHER KINGDOM

Lyrixa: I need privacy with him. (Ordered without even looking at anyone)

Everyone: Yes your majesty. (Slowly left the room, with Sylara stucked up with Lyraen and Pookie proudly relaxed on Khaos's broad shoulder)

Lyrixa: Arise human. (Commanded)

Kasper: (got up and stared calmly at her)

Lyrixa: You found something didn't you?

Kasper: Hmm (slightly nodded). An infiltrator is lurking around close to the palace. I felt an unknown mana wave earlier and found 3 demon bodies in a deserted alley way. It's unsure to decide yet if it was made by a group or a single fellow.

Lyrixa: I see. Looks like things aren't going to be easy as expected. (Sighs quietly then looked up to him)

Kasper: (noticed mixed emotions on Lyrixa's face and her tone) Are you alright your majesty?

Lyrixa: (looks up to him with a questioning look) And why is that?

Kasper: Do you feel... Lonely? (Asked concerned)

Lyrixa: Lonely? (Her eyes flickered abit then a quick frown appeared next) I have no time for things like that. Emotions are burdens that will only tie you down. I have better things to do than worrying about loneliness. (Cold replied)

Kasper: (Chuckle quickly but quietly) You both are the same. (He looked up staring into her eyes, seeing someone familiar in her) You're just like momma. You just have to act strong and calm even when you're going through a fire hell.

Lyrixa: (eyes softened abit)

Kasper: The responsibilities feels too much for you. I get, I absolutely understand you but it's fine to be selfish once in a while and do something you really wish you do.

Lyrixa: (drifted in her thoughts about Kasper's words)

She wished few people, even if it had to be a single fellow. She wished they could see her as Lyrixa for once and not the demon queen or the heir of Lucifer, King Lucian. She wished to be herself but it seems fate said a capital NO to her life. She was stucked up with this royalty life, citizens priorities and deals she had to handle.

Lyrixa: I... (Paused) I'm royalty. Little things do not freak me. The kingdom's growth and well being is my priority.

Kasper: I see. (Calmly replied)

Athena: DING! New mission.

Kasper: (looks up at the blue screen panel that appeared before him)

Athena: TRAVEL TO ANOTHER DEMON KINGDOM. Reward: Mysterious.

Kasper: Eh? A mysterious package?

Athena: PENDING MISSIONS

1. Help demon queen mana bowl ( completing: 25%)

2. Strengthen kingdom's force

NEW NOTIFICATION, system is undergoing a new version from the management authority. Will you like to update your own system? YES/ NO?

Kasper: Update? And there's a management authority? (Surprised) Where they the one that brought me here? (Muttered beneath his breath)

Lyrixa: (stared at Kasper who seemed to be lost in his thoughts)

Kasper: YES (clicked on the option)

Athena: Host will have to temporarily shut down for 3 hours while the system updates. Would host like to proceed? YES / NO?

Kasper: If I click on the yes option now. I'll suddenly drop to the ground unconscious and it might cause a commotion. Guessing I have to do it once Lyrixa is out of here (thought) Your majesty (suddenly spoke up)

Lyrixa: (stared calmly with an arched eyebrow that gave him the permission to speak)

Kasper: I'll be leaving Purgatory in few days time.

Lyrixa: (stared then froze with a distain look on her face) Are you changing course? (A dangerous frown appeared and black flames ignited, surrounding her as her anger rose)

Kasper: Black flames? (gulped with a quiet mumbled between his breath) I guessed I shouldn't have said that. What if she locks me up in the dungeon again, thinking that I'm about to betray her? (Thought) I would never betray you, your majesty.

Lyrixa: (relaxed and her flames suddenly disappeared) I believe you. I know you would do such a thing or I'll burn you into crisps (threatened)

Kasper: (gulped)

Lyrixa: Why are your reasons for going there? You can't just go to another demon kingdom as a human.

Kasper: Yes your majesty. I plan on going there to... Find another wife (spouted out playfully)

Lyrixa: (frowns) Really? (Another flames appeared encircling her dagger) I'll just have to neuter you then. (Threatened)

Kasper: (flinched then quickly coverer between his legs with his hands) I was just kidding. (Sighs) I just wish to explore the demon world and learn new things to help Purgatory. This kingdom is now my priority also. I promise to help you in exchange for spearing my life. (Explained) And I swear with my life that I'll never betray you and always serve you as my queen. (Got down on one knee with his fist clenched against his chest)
