《THE RISE OF ROYAL RED EYES : BLOOD MOON》Chapter 34:WE MUST TALK PART 2
Advertisement
"Alexa."
A call as I walked down the south hallway of the mansion after coming out of grandpa's room for a report on the Yemen operation.
"Ahiga, it's nice to see you again."
My smile instantly expands seeing who calls me. It feels like her friendly smile can always make someone even more excited. I hugged him straight away.
"How are you?"
Ahiga replies to my arms.
"Fine, thank you. Are you here? Any need with grandpa?"
"Ahhh yes actually, I invited officially your grandfather and family to our main family engagement rather my sister with one of your cousins I guess."
"Ahhh really?"
"And I hear you're getting engaged too?"
"Ohh you know?"
"Yes your grandfather told me a story. He gave you your engagement invitation. With Alexander? Last I've guessed you and him have something." Ahiga smiled.
"Hmm that's the way" I sighed long.
"What's up? You're not happy for your engagement?"
Maybe my expressions are too visible in her eyes. Then he stopped.
"Sorry, shouldn't I have asked that. You don't look that excited."
"Ahh I'm just exhausted, yesterday we just dealt with the crisis in Yemen. And had to deploy the main legions withstand the airstrikes for three days on the facility of the last hospital in Raaz." I diverted the talk.
"Ohhh, the attack is making headlines now. You guys turned out to have a mission there? You guys spreading the word of the attack?"
"Yes, grandfather strives for the attack to stop, even if peace there is still very far away. And the humanitarian crisis is very worrying there. Humans do like to destroy each other. You know how destructive war can be."
He was understandably understandable to my story.
"You want dinner? How about we eat outside? How about De Escalante?"
He reached out to his hand, while mentioning an Italian restaurant just off the Mansion.

"All right, come on."
I cheerfully welcome his solicitation. I messaged Odelia, that I was going to have dinner with a friend at the restaurant we chose. Those replying will catch up with me soon.
We ate with gobbled. Eating and meeting friends, it's a really nice stress drug. And Ahiga is also a very good dining companion. I haven't gotten a friend who likes to joke like Ahiga. Meeting and talking to him was a release from stress which was really good for me. He's a very smart guy making things up as joke material. In fact, we laughed at the waiters who served us. In closing, we ordered wine to celebrate our meeting.
"You're satisfied now?" Ahiga is thoughtfully worded.
"Haa, what do you mean?!"
I just finished laughing out loud as a result of the joke.
"I mean I've cheered you on for two hours, and put on weight each of us 2 kilos because of these great foods"
I just realized an awful lot we've spent.
"I'm too readable for you hahaha"
I'm between laughing and crying responding to Ahiga's words.
"You want a story?! I'll listen. Maybe later I can give you a new point of view."
He shifted his seat near me. He is indeed a good and sweet friend.
I hugged him, and funneled my head into his arm. Close my eyes for a minute enjoying the attention. I always thought if only I had been jockeyed with Ahiga, things would have been easier. He's a very good friend, and will certainly be a loving lover. And I'm not trapped in a harem of dark creatures of female conquerors like Alexander. While Ahiga strokes my head gently letting me lean on him.
"You guys are here apparently"
A voice makes my nape cool. I opened my eyes and straightened my seat. Nightmare! Alexander was in front of me, looking at me sharply and throwing a killing stare at Ahiga. Why is he here? He said it would come Friday night.

"Alexander! Nice to see you brother. We're eating, let's eat together, you happen to be here."
Ahiga's voice is flat, he challenges Alexander. He probably knows a bit much of my grief because of this guy in front of me. It could be a disaster. I'm now terrified! We were too familiar and he saw it. I need to fix this.
"I've eaten on a plane. Thank you for your concern." A not-so-pleasant reply from Alexander.
"Alexa, are you done? If we have, we have a promise somewhere don't we?"
Alexander's voice is calm, he's threatening me to say, if he won't be sure he makes a fuss here.
"Ohh really? You didn't mention it Alexa, I thought I could drive you back to the Aegis Mansion earlier."
Ahiga doused gasoline into these talks. I'm goosebumps. I need to stop these two males from talking further.
"Thank you for your kindness. But I was in charge of driving him. She's my fiancée. You've received an invitation from our clan right?"
Alexander did not want to accept Ahiga's remarks. He's smiling coolly now.
"Ahh Ahiga, I'll be back with Alex. There's something we have to talk about".
I need to get out of here ASAP before these two alpha males strike more than wordplay.
"Then come on! Ahiga we hurry up, thank you for accompanying Alexa, my fiancée. My assistant will pay your bill!" Alex whizzed my hand so forcefully that I winced.
"Ahiga, please thank you for your time, see you" I remind him not to extend. It seems he understands.
Alexander didn't wait anymore to pull me off the place. The car and its driver waited in the restaurant's front parking lot. Looks like he was really intent on taking me straight away. The grip of his hand does not diminish. He immediately opened the back door and made sure I got in.
We'll have that fight for sure! He sat down next to me with his body exhaling.
"We're on to OakHill, Simon!" Oakhill!? Not to the Aegis mansion? I was immediately anxious about where he was going to take me.
"Oakhill? Where?" I immediately asked.
"You and I need to talk four eyes now! We're into my Mansion!" So he had his own home in London.
"I want to go home Alexander! I'm tired" I tried to fight him.
"You're not going home tonight! We have to talk!" Alexander replied coolly.
"You can't manage me as you are Mr. Alexander."
My tone was up, I was sidelined because he ignored me.
"Shut up Alexa! Don't keep on debating me! Or you'll accept the consequences!"
He squawked my arm firmly, while speaking in a threatening low tone. I gasp! He is being limited to his patience. One more word will make it explode!
Our 30-minute trip felt like ice hell. I and Alexander kept each other quiet, each of us plotting a confrontation in our brains. I don't care anymore. I'll fight it! I can't keep quiet like this anymore.
Cars get to the big Mansion in typical Victorian English style. The chauffeur came down and opened the door for me. Alexander whinged my hand and took me in, maybe he was afraid I was running away. Two stewards opened the main door. The main servant welcomed him inside.
"Mr. welcome, anything you need?"
"No Doria, I'm going up to my room, I don't want to be bothered." His voice was as calm as ice. I got goosebumps hearing it.
He was still silent, we passed the main lobby and climbed the stairs to the second floor. I was scared, he must have taken me to his room. While his hand didn't take off his clutches on my arm.
"Get in!" He opened the room door.

The Dungeon Hive
One thing I noticed about most dungeon stories is that most races mistakenly believe that dungeons have a hive-mind and I go, “That make sense.” Considering the various powers and how big dungeons can get, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to have a hive-mind? So this is it; my take of the world’s first dungeon and the hive that controls it. Watch as it stumbles, fall, survive, strive and…procreate? Watch as it changed the world of Ioplon…for better and for worse. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For edited version of the story, the full trilogy (Book_1: Fantasy Begins, Book_2: Dungeon Flames, Book_3: Spread of the Dungeons) are now available on Amazon. Please take a look, and leave a rating. Thanks

8 130The Rise Of Natria The Tyrant
The following is account given by a surviving battle soldier, Zinhestine Vazo.‘He was there. The cruelest of all in Europe, the spawn of devil, no, he is the devil himself, pleasuring himself from our pain; he watched us suffer and laughed with his fellow soldiers. He mocked us while we cried begging for death. No one is safe from him, not even women or children, the ice cold blue eyes show mercy to none. There is no way that he is a man, the true tyrant of Europe not even our Lord can match with him, he’s Natria the Tyrant.’ Zinhestine was later found dead in his cell. A note was recovered from his body.‘I know you guys are deporting me to Chemintz, I would rather die than go through that hell again. My death would be the final warning, please stop the war, other wise there would be no Germany in the map by tomorrow.’
8 98A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.
