The Legend Of Divine Mystics

The warm rays of sun falling on Anuja's face woke her up.

'Huh? Wasn't I in the jungle? Then how did I reach here? Was that all a dream?"Sending all these thoughts to the back of her mind, she went to do her morning chores.

Upon entering the bathroom she turned towards mirror, only to find her clothes covered with dust and her hair a tangled mess. Looks like it wasn't a dream.

'It's gonna be a pain in the a.s.s to entangle this bird's nest on my head. Keeping this all aside, I can't believe I spent a whole night with a man alone in the forest. I know that Ryan is a gentleman and won't do any such thing ,but I should be a little self aware.Well let's finish my morning chores first ,I shall think about this later' She thought to herself.

Getting out into the corridor, she went to the dining hall to have breakfast. Entering inside, she found Ryan along with Mica and 4 other men having breakfast.

Sitting at her usual place besides Rya, she waited for her breakfast until a maid came and placed a plate in front of her. On her other side, sat Mica greeting her with his usual cheerful smile. Getting out of his reverie ,Ryan looked towards Anuja and greets her with a good morning ,giving her his bright smile. But behind that smile, Anuja saw a troubled look in those eyes. Something was wrong.

" Now that you are here let me introduce you to my generals.You have already met Mica and the one beside him with green hair is Jass Morgan"

Looking towards Jass he looked like a strict person with a huge bulky body with the height of a giraffe.

"The one beside him is Ronny. And the other two are Saphaeis and Ophai"

Ronny looked like a pleasant person with a lack of expressions. Saphaeis and Ophai were sitting a little too close for comfort. Well, none of her business.

But what troubled Anuja was that hint of tension in Ryan's eyes.

Thinking this, she decided to ask him straight as soon as others left," Ryan can I ask you something only if you are willing to answer me truthfully?"

Hearing this Ryan replied immediately without thinking," Of course you know I would never lie to you"

But little did he know that by saying this he had put himself into a lot of trouble.

Looking him in the eye, she asked him in a deadpan manner without blinking even once,"What is troubling you?"

Hearing this, his eyes widened in complete astonishment. Little did he know that his little mate whom he thought to be weak and innocent, was actually quite observant and strategic minded.

Thinking for a minute he replied hesitantly maintaining his usual aloof nature " Actually ,today afternoon 'he' is coming..."

"And who is this 'he'? "

And here comes the question he didn't wanted to answer.

Taking a deep breath he said in a serious tone,"Vampire King Ralph"

After their little encounter she went to her room to get the book given by Reeva and with it she went to the garden behind the castle.

Entering in she looked for a secluded area away from any disturbance, going deeper in. But there was no peace available in her life.

She opened the book and read the first spell ,it was a water cocoon spell. The main purpose of it was  to help totally beginners like Anuja who don't even know what a spell is, to concentrate their magic core and learn the most basic spell of making a water balloon floating in air.

But as soon as she decided to try that spell a voice entered her ears.

"Anuja!!! Anuja!!!"

She heard Liz's voice. Turning around she saw Liz's light blue dress coming into her view.

Walking towards her, she said," Do you want anything Anuja? I'm here to take care of all your needs."

Heaving a deep sigh and trying to control her anger she said," No need Liz I don't need anything right now. You can go and complete your works ."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm absolutely sure Liz"

"OK" ,saying this she turned around to leave.

And so she continued her work.

But after sometime came a voice again," Are you sure Anuja?"

'Uhhh, calm down Anuja don't get angry.'

" I'm sure Liz ,you can go. You don't need to worry."

With this she left and this time Anuja waited till she saw her going out of the garden area. But before going out, she turned gave her a look and left.

'She is definitely gonna return in sometime ,I need to find a much safer place.'

Thinking this she moved around in search of such a place. After walking for sometime ,she found herself deep inside the jungle near the garden.

Walking around, her feet got entangled in some  creepers and she lost her footing falling ahead in a wall of such branches.

But instead of feeling the soft creepers on impact I hear a heavy thud. She cried out in pain.

Looking up she found a wooden door hidden behind them. Her head butted against it causing a great impact. It is definitely gonna swell up afterwards.

But her curiosity was greater than her pain so she ignored it and opened the door. What she found inside was truly astounding.
