《Dark Moon : Rise of The Dark King》Second Arc (His Art of War) – 36. Silent Words
Advertisement
Frost waited in front of the castle anxiously, the night was getting late and Angel had not returned. He was worried since Angel had only rested briefly. After leading the war, he held a meeting with the nobles, checked the city's security, examined Asteria's financial statements and quickly thought of a solution. The only time he rested was when he had dinner before having a discussion with King Gervis.
Flashes of thunder cut through the night sky in Eternal Harmony City. Heavy rain began to fall accompanied by strong winds. Although Frost's expression was calm, the worry in his heart continued to grow. Moreover, he could feel Angel's dark power continuing to flare up. Feeling unable to wait any longer he ordered guards nearby.
"Prepare my horse and a robe for His Majesty."
The guard quickly carried out his orders and brought his horse to the castle entrance. Frost climbed on his horse and took the robe from the guard's hand before spurred it out of the castle, through the rain, down the dark city streets. He followed Angel dark power's trace. Even though they were far away, he could feel Angel desperately suppress the overflowing dark forces that try to take over him. This has never happened before, at least it's never been this bad. Frost passed through the North gate, through the trees until he finally arrived at a stone gate guarded by Asterian special guards.
Frost stopped his horse and asked them. "Is His Majesty inside?"
"Yes. It's better for you to pick him up immediately because he has been inside for too long," answered one of them in displeased expression.
Frost nodded at their information and spurred his horse again to move forward.
"It would be better for you to pick him up immediately because a traitor is not fit to step on the sacred land of Asteria," the guard said again after Frost left.

Frost slowed down his horse while sweeping his gaze around him. After a long time he looked for him in the heavy rain, he finally found Angel kneeling in front of a stone tomb. His uniform was all wet, his eyes fixed on the gravestone before him and his expression remained cold. Even though he looks fine, Frost knows his emotions are in turmoil. There are two forces fighting inside him.
Frost got off his horse and stepped toward him, but after a few steps, he halted as he remembered Angel's words earlier. Therefore he undoes his intention and decides to wait for him in silence. His eyes were fixed on the king that he served for years. A man who has become king at a young age, the king has both excellent ability to fight and lead. But behind all of that, he always kept his own difficulties.
Whereas Angel knew about Frost's arrival, he knew Frost had come because he felt the dark forces within him constantly flaring up, asking to be released. That's why he was still here, he wanted to calm himself. A king who cannot control himself or his emotions does not deserve to be a king.
After nearly half an hour Frost waited, the rain began to subside, the black clouds covering the sky began to disappear. Angel finally stood up after he managed to control his emotions and dark power within him.
He bowed and returned his gaze at the tombstone once more. "Father, I'll take my leave," he said quietly almost like a whisper.
He turned and walked over to Frost. Without saying anything Frost gave his robe, which he took and wore. He turned his gaze to Frost and gave him a slight smile. "Thank you for worrying about me." Which Frost answered with a slight bow.

The Shards of Sylvia's Soul
In the little village of Nyberg, Sylvia is dreaming of a future with Rebecca at her side. Together, they could move overseas. But when bandits attack, all of her tender dreams turn to ashes. Forced out of her home, Sylvia forges new bonds with the Fri, the women who have taken it upon themselves to protect their little corner of the world. She also meets Afi, a strange bandit with a stern face and a soft heart. Saving each other from certain demise, they join in a bond which irreversibly ties their souls together. So bonded, they attempt to settle down. When a distant heir to the Crown asks for aid to reunite the country, Sylvia sees her chance to finally right all the wrongs committed against her family. In the pursuit of the throne, Afi and Sylvia come to risk their very lives. Sylvia uncovers the relationship between soul, magic, and divinity itself, but even in research, there is peril. It is not an easy task to balance the strain on her soul with the demands of the upcoming battle. In this world, the soul is not an incorporeal concept. To the contrary, the human soul is a physical object, an organ which resides in the chest of each individual. It is a great source of strength, but also of vulnerability. Hardship can leave scratches and blemishes, or even break the soul in two. The soul is each person's connection to divinity, to the magic which is ubiquitous to the world. It enables the cultivation of gods, but old legends warn of demons emerging in the presence of corrupt intention, and of hollow warriors, with no soul at all. There are two sides to every page. Update ScheduleNew chapters are in the works. ScopeThree to four books in total are planned.Book 1: "Fri Women" Chapters 1-64. Find the paperback and e-book here.
