Monarch of Darkness

After telling Bigblue that he was leaving Sylvia clan for some time,Evan bade it farewell. Then he along with his aunt returned to Sylvia clan without alerting anyone. That night was one of saddest night for Olivia and Brianna. Olivia that day came to the palace of Evan and slept with him. Evan pretended to sleep but he was awake. He accompained his mother silently who was sobbing till late night. After making sure that her mother was asleep,only after that Evan went to bed. 

As his usual habit,Evan checked his surrounding using his soul conciousness before going to rest. But he noticed a horned dog crouching down there silently, infront of his palace. Evan walked out of his palace. Sylvia clan warriors were patrolling his palace despite the cold night. They noticed him as soon as he went out. One of them asked,"Little prince,it is already late night,why are you still awake?" 

"I have taken enough rest already. I will not sleep any longer today",Evan replied and walked out of his palace. Sylvia clan warriors followed him.

Evan left his palace and found the guard dog lying on the stone path. "Whitey,why are you here?",Evan used soul communication to talk with Whitey.

"I feel restless somehow,so I have come",Evan could understand it's feeling through their soul contact. But instead of saying it through their connection,it let out a long barking sound,'Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu'.

Seeing it's actions,a smile crept into the face of Evan. He felt better. "Friends may betray you,but your pet will care for you until it die",he recalled line of a story which he read in his previous life. In that story,how a devil roamed the world with his pet dragon was described. They conquered many kingdoms together but in a fight that devil died while protecting the dragon from a attack. That dragon could have fled but it decided to stay instead, accompanying his master even in death. Evan liked this story very much. His love for animals only grew after this. Animals were sincere,he felt this inside his heart.

He was feeling down today. His mood was little bit off. Due to his various experiences,Evan had already become more mature than other childs age. But it didn't change the fact that he was only a eight year old child,if age of his previous life considered,even then he was only a ten year old child. So, leaving his mother,aunt and friends still difficult for him, without feeling sadness. But the actions of Whitey lessen his sadness.

He knocked it's head with his finger.

"Whitey,you are as stupid as ever,you could have talk to me silently through our soul connection. But you are making a ruckus in late night",Evan chuckled. He strolled outside for sometime with Whitey following around and then returned to bed.

Night went past peacefully. Finally,it was time for departure. Before departing Evan visited Levi in morning and described reason behind his departure. Levi became furious after listening the reason. But Evan assured him that he would be safe.

Evan climbed the back of green feathered eagle. It was Aaron Jadestar who was accompanying him to the capital of Northpeak kingdom. Two Sylvia clan warriors were also following him to the capital. It was Lucas who was sending the two Sylvia clan warriors for security concern. As for,Aaron,he volunteered to go with Evan and everyone was okay with his decision as he was the best candidate to do so. Brianna and Lucas had trust in the abilities of Aaron to handle this matter related to Evan.

Sylvia clan had dispatched three snow owls to follow Evan. Two Sylvia clan warriors were riding two of the snow owls. As for the remaining one,it was borrowed by the blackrobed man from Blackridge kingdom. After everyone climbed the back of green feathered eagle,with the signal of golden armoured man,it flapped it's wings and soared high to the sky. Green feathered eagle was a profound transformation realm magical beast. So,it's size was larger than size of a ordinary eagle. It easily accomodate Evan,Aaron and the golden armoured person of Northpeak empire.

Evan didn't look back at his sobbing mother, despite the pain he was feeling inside his heart. For him,in this kingdom of humans,his mother,aunt and Sylvia clan members were the most important person. He didn't care about other humans. 

His black robe was fluttering with the wind. Wind flow had the power to throw him out from back of green feathered eagle,but there was no shard of fear in his heart.

Evan looked at his front. A stretch of endless blue and white came to his view. It reminded him about his path,his promise to his family and devils. He was the prince of devils and he would restore the glory of devils one day. Eternal moon kingdom would emerge again.A  determined look appeared in his eyes. 

"Little prince,are you okay?",Aaron's voice came from side. He was worrying about whether Evan was fearing such a height where wind is flowing so rapidly due to the speed of green feathered eagle.

"Don't worry,uncle Aaron I am fine",Evan replied. Instead of fear,Evan was in high spirit. Before this,he was never exposed to such wind speed. Now his adventurous spirit awakened. He was very much enjoying such a journey.

Suddenly Evan felt uncomfortable. This feeling was coming from his miraculous instinct,which he had in his posession since his past life. One could say it was a innate talent only belonged to Evan.

Evan turned around his head and saw the middle-aged man in Black robe staring at him. He was following closely to them riding on top of snow owl. Snow owl was a flying type magical beast tamed for traveling purpose in Sylvia clan.

Evan saw his eyes,which had a chilling glint and it disappeared,as soon as he turned around. That blackrobed man even laughed amiably at him,"Prince,is there anything you need from me".One couldn't sense any ill intent from him looking at his amiable expression. Evan felt danger from this middle-aged person. As per the information he heard,this guy came from blackridge kingdom and his name matched with it,"Pietro Blackrock".

The reminder of Serberus before he went to sleep appeared inside his mind. "Humans are the most treacherous among all creature",this was the exact line Serberus told him before. 

"This Pietro Blackrock is like a poisonous snake,who could keep his enmity hidden while smiling",he thought.
