Calla Lily, The Eunuch King's Goblin Bride

"It's okey-completely okey. You are with us here, safe and sound."

I heard Seren's voice close to us, standing near by the bed to me and Ezlynn.

"Here have some water."

She stretched hand out towards the direction of table a few steps where a shiny glassy jug and a glass was placed. Twisting her fingers a blue spark escaped from her pores.

To my surprise the jug got lifted from the table up into air along with the glass. And started to move towards us finally reaching upto Seren.

It wasn't like I never watched that kind of magic tricks. That was a measly thing to me when I had witnessed supremacy of my master. Who taught me to control and master my powers.

"Wait-you guys can use magic ? Like that one ?"

I pointed towards the table and asked Seren while she was pouring the crystal clear fresh water into the glass.

"Umm yes. But ....."

I knew something was not right because I never saw three of them using magic or powers. How come they now ?

"But what ? You hid all this from me ?"

My devastated voice rose, maybe I was being too c.o.c.ky now. But still they hid the fact of having magic.

"No-it's just we are forbidden to use the magic since the core turned black. It's to save and support our inner selves for lasting long."

I could saw sincerest expressions on Ezlynn's face. The explanation caused me to make an O shaped mouth.

"Oh I'm sorry, I just....."

Shaking my head I felt guilty doubting them. Tucking both hands on navel Eire stood up into my face.

"You what ? You thought we did it purposely because we don't want to help you or fear that you might suck our souls out along with magic ?"

I really became worried and upset upon her words. I got offended but that wasn't the reason.

"Definitely not."

I stood up from the bed leaving Ezlynn's embracing hug, raising my voice.

"I was just wondering if you could help my body recover with your magic. But it's fine because you have to stay alive too and for that you need to preserve what you are left with."

I tried to explain my thoughts which came into my mind after seeing that jug flying.

"Oh my stop all this childish fight."

Ezlynn stopped us coming in between and standing in the middle.

"Oh yeah moreover it's a measly trick. I've seen much more and witnessed supreme power level."

I tried to boast about my master. When Eire leaped forward like an excited child with sparkling eager eyes.

"Hey what are you trying to say that I'm unable to surpass average ones ?"

Seren got angry and her plump cheeks became red which caused me to giggle.

"You- Pfftt..... you are looking like an angry bird."

She was fuming and shaking in anger which caused all of us to laugh now.

"Okey calm down I didn't meant to say that. It's just your kingdom's levels are different from mine. That's why I'm still unable to heal and regain my powers."

I patted on her shoulder and squished cheeks to blew off her anger.

"So tell us about your world, yay ?"

Eire was like the hyperactive kid in the house. Ready for everything and eager to explore.

"Oh yes I'll tell you but first wanna take bath. I'm stinking because of sweat."

I tried to smell myself by putting nose into the robe and a sharp stink filled my nostrils with disgust . Upon seeing my funny expressions they laughed.

"You are such a drama queen Charis. Okey you first take bath I'll fetch you something to eat. And then we will listen to the tale."

Ezlynn chipped and strode towards the exit.

"Aren't you getting late now ?"

Seren pulled my pointy ear from the end like any elder sister will do to her younger naughty one.

"Ouch yes yes going."

And I hurriedly walked towards the bathroom, definitely a luxurious one with giant tub which I filled with soothing magical water from the tap and personally I didn't know where it was coming from but it had really a fantastic effect in lowering body stress, I dropped roses all around in the water and a bit of perfumed oil .

"Hey is Ezlynn going to meet that guy, what's their meeting point ? Ugh I want to leave this room."

I shouted from inside to ask Seren. Curiosity killed me that who is that guy and when they both meet. It was like a sister meeting her brother-in-law.

"You want to roam around Charis ?"

Eire chipped thumping against the closed door as she leaned on the wood.

"Yes why not. It's been five days now I'm caged into this chamber."

I really wanted to have some fresh air, more specifically I wanted to go out to explore this kingdom and to find the strange cultivation which made it so strong to last this long even with their core stone gone black.

Ezlynn told me that the stone changed it's color to grey but immediately to black at my arrival . According to the law of nature a kingdom can last only upto a few days with this state of their core. Which made me eager to study their magic. Maybe I will be able to exceed my level and recover even go home.
