Chapter 54
SOME, 500 YEARS LATER**
“Her highness is really improving”…
“Hmm, look she’s even using the sword better than me”
June and Oprah could be seen standing at the garden and watching Nevaeh who was training with the sword in pure seriousness.
She didn’t have time to look distracted, she kept slashing the air, the leafs, her front and back, she jumped when it’s needed, dodge when it’s needed, run when it’s needed even somersault when it’s needed.
Five hundreds years had passed and she has grown to become a strong, looking and fierce young lady.
Though she just recognized where she came from late but now she’s really popular, she’s tagged as one of the most strong and fierce princess in the peacock palace.
The other peacock princesses are nothing compared to her, while those ones wait for their guards to fight for them, she doesn’t.
She loves doing things on her own and she’s happy it with.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Finally she ended her sword practice and she wrapped it around her back then looked at June and Oprah who just clapped proudly.
“That was really great your highness” Oprah clapped and Nevaeh rolled her eyes.
“I hate it when you flatter me” she replied and walked passed them.
June could only just shake her head with a chuckle, well that’s how their princess is now.
Cold hearted and straight forward but who can blame her, if you were in her shoes were you had just lost your best friend well what would you do, would you still be smiling?
Their princess now had spend five hundred years of her time to train just so she could finally get the revenge she had promised to seek for her friend.
But now the thing both her maid and bodyguard are worried about is: can she really face the devil himself??
Everyone now knows about the demon prince son who had now turned to the king and had decided to bare his late father’s name.
Everyone knows about Lord Draco and how dangerous he is, from the way they see it, he’s more worst than his late father and can Nevaeh really face him like she’s planning too.
Was this five hundred years of training really worth it?
Hope this isn’t something she’s regret at the ending but anyways, that was her decision and no one could change it.

NEVAEH’S ROOM**
She went to the bathroom to bath while Oprah had stepped out of the room to go get food for her highness.
Once she was done with bathing, she stepped out of the bathroom and met June sitting on the small stool and waiting for her.
“June can you help me select the dress that I’ll wear today?” She asked, going to the bathroom to brush her hair and fix her makeup.
“Sure princess” June replied and stood up then went to Nevaeh’s wardrobe, she began looking for the dress to select but turns out that, her highness doesn’t have a normal female outfit.
All her dresses looks like she’s going to fight some war, they are those kinds that has some trousers under.
June shook her head and selected one then went back to Nevaeh.
“Highness, let me help you brush your hair” she offered and Nevaeh nodded.
June collected the brush and began helping Nevaeh to brush her hair.
“Yunno, your highness.. I should have complimented how soft your hair looks but you hate flattery” June said with a little chuckle.
“And I’m glad that you know” Nevaeh replied.
June then cleared her throat as she spoke what was really bugging her.
“Highness, I’m really worried about you going to face the demon king alone, he’s so powerful and dangerous have you heard the latest rumors about him?” She asked.
“I don’t care and are you trying to tell me not to avenge my friend’s death?” Nevaeh asked angrily.
“No princess, I’m just really worried about you and I think the way you plan to kill him might not work, how can you just go to the palace and attack him, his bodyguards will also be there and they might…
“I’ll attack him when he’s alone” Nevaeh cut June off.
“Princess, you’re powers are no match for him. He might kill you with the way he killed your friend back then” June said worriedly.
Nevaeh didn’t reply anymore, she just closed her eyes and June sighed.
“I’m not against the idea of you killing him, I just want you to do it the easiest way” June said.
Nevaeh slowly opened her eyes and looked at her from the mirror.
“How?” She asked slowly and June smiled.
“You know the easiest way to get through a man is when you get through his heart first” June replied.
“What are you trying to say?” Nevaeh asked then straightened up a bit.
“I’m trying to say that you should try seducing him first, make him fall in love with you then you’ll kill him” June replied.
“I should seduce him?” Nevaeh repeated.
“Yes princess, love is the only weakness of a man or anybody. If you make him fall head over heels for you, he will be powerless, he will be blind to see what is happening around him, he won’t be able to fight back or do anything, he’ll be totally useless and you can now take full control then kill him” June explained.
Nevaeh’s mouth formed an ‘o’ as she listened. That is actually making sense but how is she sure that seduction can work on that heartless king.
“To do this, that means you would have to go to the demon kingdom and stay there with him” June added.
“If I leave and my brother finds out?”… She asked.
“You don’t have to worry, we can make Oprah dress like you” June replied.
“I love that” Nevaeh smiled and faced the mirror.
*Zachary Chen or lord Draco.. Whatever you call yourself now, just wait for me* she thought.
❀❀❀❀❀??
DEMON KINGDOM**
Just like he had vowed, the kingdom was now restored, he made it look bigger than the one his late father had built and now they are over thousands of demons in the palace ready to serve and worship him.
Inside the main hall, he was seated on his huge dark and flammable throne, he’s putting on a huge and thick dark long robe, his hair is now dark, thicker and longer.
As for his face, he didn’t stop being handsome.. now he was looking more handsome but in a kind of dark way, his face shows that he’s not ready to smile or play anytime soon.
Beside him was his late father’s huge long sword and his black dragon that was now sleeping, the man didn’t do anything other than to watch the dancers that were trying their very best to impress him with their moves but to him it was still looking as boring as ever.
The palace door opened and Harmony stepped in, her appearance has now changed.
She is in a black thick female general outfit, black hair and dark make-up.. she is also known as the king personal bodyguard since they were the one that joined hands and built up this place together.
The demon army bowed as she made her way in but she just walked straight to the king and whispered something on his ears.
Draco listened and put his hands out for the dancers to stop Dancing.
They stopped, bowed and left then Draco stood up from his throne, his black dragon immediately opened his eyes and flew up too.
“Take me to him” he ordered and Harmony bowed, she led the way and they both found themselves in a dark room.
Harmony opened the door and Draco stepped in then she opened the window.
There was a man tied to a chair, his mouth and eyed were also tied with a dark cloth.
Draco looked at Harmony and she nodded then walked up to the man and removed the clothes from his eyes.
The moment the man saw Draco, he began shaking visibily and really hard. Like a drenched chicken that was bathed with iced water.
“So you’re the spy that’ve been linking everything we do to your palace” he said, in a boring and lifeless tone.
The man began shaking his head in fear.
“You’re not really a demon are you?” He asked again and tears fell off the man eyes.
He then looked at Harmony and she immediately walked up to the man and removed the cloth from his mouth.
“My king please.. it’s all a misunderstanding I… I…
Harmony kicked him hard before she could finish.
“The king wants the truth from you, you’re not really a demon are you?” She asked but he kept crying.
“You’re General Zhou from the feathers palace and you were sent to spy on me right?” Draco asked dryly and the man eyes widened.
How does he know?, He couldn’t help but wonder.
Draco closed his eyes and his sword began appearing on his hands.
The man eyes widened and he began crying really hard.
“Please spare me Lord Draco, please just give me a second chance I swear I’ll keep my mouth closed, I won’t do anything, I…
The man was talking but Draco raised his sword up to his neck and slashed it.
“I don’t give second chance, I’ll kill anyone that dares betray me” he replied and put his sword down before looking at Harmony again.
“Cut his head off, put it on our package box and transport it to feathers palace, let them take it as a warning message from us” he ordered.
“Yes my lord” Harmony bowed and Draco left.
Harmony raised her head up and watched him as he left, a low smile appeared on her face.
There’s nothing more better than doing nothing other than watching the man you love, fighting and standing by his side everytime.

JADE HEAVENS**
He was in his room, backing his window and looking at the wind blowing, the maids people walking, the guards standing outside and the general training the armies.
He had a sad look look on his face, five hundred years had passed and there’s still not a trace of her, not even a single sign and he haven’t forgotten about her one bit.
He still sees her in his dream every night, the memories of how they spent their time on training together, playing and so on kept coming to his mind every now and then.
His thoughts got Interrupted when the door opened and Fen stepped on with creased brows.
“Highness why are you still standing there? Aren’t you going to get dressed for..
“Don’t mention it” Den cut him off and turned to look at him.
His face came to view, he’s still looking as handsome as ever even though he looked a lot more thinner and pale.
When the king and the queen thought that he was going to move on as the time passes, the little did they know that they were wrong, five hundred years has passed but he still looks and act the same.
He’s not more of the angel of light anymore maybe he should be called the angel of sadist because he’s always sad and with what is about to happen now, it’s sure that he’d turn more worst.
He walked slowly and sat on his chair then rested his head on the table.
“Don’t they get it, I really don’t want to..” he muttered.
Fen sighed and walked to sit beside him then placed his hands on Den’s shoulders.
“Highness I understand that this is a really hard phase of your life right but you won’t know if it’s for the better, maybe your life will change after this” he said softly.
“My life can’t change after this, this will only make my life worst” Den replied.
“Maybe that’s what you might think for now but time really can change everything, everyone are waiting for you in the palace your highness, please do change and come out, don’t make the king mad” Fen said, then gave his shoulder a light squeeze before standing up and leaving.
Once Den heard the closing of the door, a tear drop rolled down from his eyes to his cheeks.

PEACOCK PALACE**
Nevaeh smiled when she was done painting, she took the picture and placed it on the short table in her room.
She just painted a picture of Gianna with her cute smile, she has been struggling to paint the perfect picture for years now but finally she has done it.
She took the lighter and lit the incense them placed it on the small can beside the picture and bowed, paying her respect.
“Anna this is your friend Nevaeh, I want you to know that I’m now a princess and I can now fight really good with sword although I really don’t know how to control my powers yet but I’m sure I’ll learn it sooner or later” she smiled then wiped the tears that were about to fall from her eyes.
“Tommorow evening I’ll be going to the demon kingdom and I promise to kill that demon king, the one that didn’t care to return your feelings, I will kill him and I will make him die the exact way you died” she said with gritted teeth.
“I’m not really good at seduction but I will make sure I seduce him and I will make sure his heart beats for me, I will make him totally weak then I will kill him the exact way he killed you. I will stab him repeatedly and I won’t stop till he dies. This is what I’m promising you Anna” she said then bowed again.
Someone entered the room and walked straight to her then placed his hands on her shoulders.
She slowly looked up to see her brother, Rennie, he had a small unhappy smile on his face, his hair had grown more longer and he had more handsome and mature, he’s meant to be ten thousand five hundred years old but he looked like someone that’s 7000 years, he really don’t age that way.
“Brother” she called with her heart beating fast, did he heard all of what she had just said.
“I heard it all, how can you be planning to go to the demons kingdom, do you want to die?” Rennie asked angrily.
“But brother I..
“You’re not going there and that’s final” Rennie cut her off.
“I have already promised Anna, I must avenge her death, how do you expect me to just sit here and allow that king to roam around freely when he killed my friend that has done nothing but loved him, wasn’t she supposed to be your wife?, If you really love or posses a simple feelings for her then you’ll let me go there right!??” She yelled in tears.
“Look you can’t face him, I knew you used five hundred years of your time and life to train but it’s not enough for you to face him. That man now has both his powers and his father powers combined together even I, can’t face him not to talk of you, a woman” he said.
Nevaeh stood up and glared at him angrily.
“Just what do you mean by that huh?, I can’t face him because I’m a woman, well listen here big brother I will go and there’s nothing you can do about it, I will avenge my best friend!!” She yelled and made to leave the room but Rennie used his powers to push her back.
“You want to go?, Fine… You can leave but only if you’ll be able to break this barrier” he said then do some finger formations and a strong blue barrier appeared in the room.
He stared at her one more time before leaving through the barrier he created.
Nevaeh immediately stood up, she tired running past the blue barrier but it pushed her back and she fell down.
She stood up again and tried running past it but the force pushed her back.
She began banging on it angrily.
“Rennie damn you!!, Open the door” she yelled out.
❀❀❀❀❀??
In the middle of a huge dessert, the cold wind could be seen blowing, dust were flying around.
Everywhere looked so empty and dry, no houses, no shops no passer by no nothing at all but the only thing that could be seen was a familiar girl laying there on the floor.
She was putting on a white long rope, her face looked pail, her body was covered with dried blood and she looked dead.
The heavy wind and dust flew past her then her eyes suddenly went wide open.
