I know that Regaleon was being controlled by the siren queen. My mind knew but my heart hurts seeing that he was going to hurt because of the siren queen’s command.
"That will not do... hahaha." Tenasia laughed coldly. "He is under my control and will never wake up again. Tell , how does it feel when the man you love will be the one to kill you himself?"
I felt pain and loss deep inside of . It would be better for the siren queen to kill herself rather than Regaleon does. It was not only that will be in so much pain, I am sure the Regaleon will be as well.
’I need to escape and buy ti.’ I thought.
I used fire magic in my palms and held on to the wrist that Tenasia was holding my hair tightly. My palms started to blaze, and she let go of her grip on . A black palm mark was left on her wrist from my attack. I tumbled down the ground but before I could escape, a kick flown my way and hit my stomach hard. I felt paralyzing pain on my stomach. I wrapped my arms around my stomach and coughed trendously.
*COUGH COUGH*
"You b*tch!" Tenasia yelled in anger. "Kill her!" I heard her command.
I was crunched in pain on the ground when I felt soone loom on top of . I saw Regaleon standing over , holding the sword up high and ready to strike. My eyes went wide in shock
Regaleon swung his sword downwards towards , I quickly rolled to my side to evade his attack. I saw the dent that the sword made to the ground, it was a powerful blow and I looked at it in disbelief.
’Regaleon would never do this. He would never hurt .’ I said to myself on and on like a mantra. ’He is just under the control of the siren queen, he is not himself.’
Regaleon pulled the sword he was holding from the ground and walked slowly towards . He was still coming towards with killing intent.
"How does it feel that the man you love is trying to kill you?" Tenasia said with a devious smiled on her face. "I felt that way the ti that b*stard discarded . After banishing my race, the humans started to hunt our kind. We did not have any choice but to hide. Those humans who were once our food and prey gained abilities and hunted us one by one. How ironic, that the hunters were not the hunted."
I can hear the pain and regret the siren queen has, her words have a mix of sadness, hate, anger and regret.
Regaleon was swinging his sword at and I was dodging from his attacks by reflex. What I realized was his attacks were weak and slow, rather than his normal attacks that were fast and powerful.
’Just maybe...’ I thought.
At my last dodge from his blade, I saw his hand trembling as if he were trying to stop his body from doing such actions. When I looked into his eyes, what I saw was the clear dark blue eyes that I love rather than the murky soulless eyes form just a while ago.
’Run...’ I see Regaleon’s mouth move without letting out any sounds.
’It is him... my husband is there.’ I thought with relief and happiness.
Regaleon had regained his consciousness but unfortunately, he cannot control his body just yet. He was still aiming for with his sword.
I was looking around thinking of what my options are. I cannot run away knowing that Regaleon has regained consciousness over his body. I can only buy him more ti until he can regain control over his body once more.
’I know you can do this.’ I worded to him silently while dodging back and forth from his slow attacks.
The siren queen was watching us with amused eyes. She was happy to see that the Almighty One’s descendant was experiencing hardship that she too had faces in the past.
"With this, I can say that I have fulfilled my revenge." Tenasia said with an amused tone. "The hate that was harboring over the centuries will be t with exact vengeance upon his descendants, hahahaha." She laughed with a wicked tone.
Regaleon’s last blow towards made a slight scratch on my arm. He was so close that I can hear his breathing.
"Burn ." Regaleon whispered to .
"But..." I replied with a surprised tone.
"Just do it." Regaleon said with conviction in his eyes.
I am not sure what he was thinking, but at least I know he can handle a degree of burns. He had fire magic attribute and he has been practicing his fire magic since he was young. Over the years, he has built up so kind of fire resistance on his body. I am still not confident I will not burn him, but at least I have confidence in his judgent.
"Fire blaze." I perford my magic spell.
The magic I conjured was directed towards Regaleon’s body. His whole body was set ablaze, I see his clothes being burned slowly.
"Ahhhhh...!!!" Regaleon scread in pain. Hearing his cry broke my heart that I stopped my magic in an instant.
Regaleon’s body plopped down after receiving my magic attack. Seeing him drop down brought tears in my eyes.
"Leon!" I scread in agony.
Regaleon’s body was lying face down on the ground. He was not moving at all.
"That was surprising.’ Tenasia said. She walked towards where Regaleon’ body was lying. "Well really it is not a surprise at all, knowing that betraying soone is in your blood. Maybe your willingness to survive override your feelings of love for this man. I pity him."
I cannot fathom the siren queen’s word. I could not have done such actions if not Regaleon made do it to him.
"You are in no position to talk to about love." I said with seethed anger. "Your love towards the Almighty One is nothing but an obsession. No wonder he never reciprocated your feelings towards him. I am sure he knew that your feelings for him was never truly love."
Tenasia’s face distorted in anger with my words. "How dare you lecture about my feelings. You know nothing!" She said in fury. "You will die by my hands tonight!"
The siren queen’s hands were aid towards . Her nails grew long and sharp, ready to fly towards any second now. The other sirens were surrounding , just waiting for their queen’s orders.
I stood up to gather my bearing, I am not going to go down without a fight. I am sure that Regaleon is still alive and I need to get to him and escape whatever it takes.
"Die, descendant of the Almighty One!" Tensia was ready to launch her attack when sothing unthinkable happened. A sword has been impaled on her torso from the back.
"I think you will be the one that is going to die here siren queen." Regaleon erged from behind Tenasia.
"H-How did you... impossible. But you were under my spell." Tenasia looked behind towards Regaleon with shock. Blood spurted out from her mouth.
"I beca conscious the ti so fire burning on the ground grazed ." Regaleon explained.
Co to think of it, so of my fire attacks that hit the ground did not died down completely. So are still burning around us in patches on the ground.
"One I was fully conscious, I realized that I cannot fully control my body because of your spell." Regaleon continued. "But when the fire grazed my legs, I was able to take control of that part of my body. That was when I knew that fire could take back my control over my body."
"This cannot be." Tenasia said with disbelief. "This... has never happened before."
Maybe in the past, all the humans that were put under the sirens spell never once woke up and so they never knew that their spell had a flaw. Fire can awaken a human male that was under the spell of a siren’s song.
"No, no, no, no...!" Tensia cannot believe it. "This cannot happen, NOOOOO!"
The loud sound of her voice hurt my ears. She was able to get away from Regaleon’s hold and is still trying to turn the tide on us for the last ti.
"Tempest, NOW!" Regaleon shouted.
After hearing Regaleon’s word, Tempest erged from the trees with fiery wings. He sent small fire balls towards the n that was under the siren’s spell.
"Uwaahh..."
"Gyaahh..."
"Ugghh..."
The n that were in a trance just a while ago was now screaming from the burning flas all over their bodies. I saw them rolling on the ground to extinguish the fire burning on their clothes.
"Did you all have nice dreams that you did not want to wake up?!" Regaleon scolded his n.
"Y-Your Majesty..." Chris was the first one to stand in attention. "Forgive us for being weak and falling for the enemy’s spell!" He kneeled and asked for forgiveness and the others followed his gesture.
"Hmph, for now you need to redeem yourselves." Regaleon said with a cold tone. "All of you will take your punishnts after defeating the enemies here.
"YES!" The n replied in unison.
Now that Regaleon’s n have co back to their right state of mind, we have a chance to win this battle.
