The bad news of Zeral betrayal made Hirvan really a concern and in same time anger because he knew this is really bad for him and his creatures so he needed a plan to get the book as it is the only way to kill Zeral just like he did it years ago against the silver sabertooth...

"I must think of something, damn you Zeral, I will kill you for betraying me like this so how the hell I'm going to get that fucking book from there I must find a way soon or all my plans will fall Ah if I can remember how to control humans from the spells in that book... Also in same time, I mustn't make them start disbelieving my power, if they lost their fate on me I will never be a God as I wish to do" Hirvan speaking to himself and thinking about what he could do to get the book...

Meanwhile, there are three monsters walking outside the cave chatting about Zeral's situation

"Damn him that bastard killed our brothers and worst than that he did eat them and what this huh? for those stupid unworthy humans" the first monster state that to his mates

A second monster add to that by saying "Yeah you are right brother, he is on the wrong side of this war, those humans deserve to die and be eaten by us, the holy beings of this world and he refused to be holy as us and live to defend those shitty creatures who refused us when we tried to live with them, they attacked us when we were asking to live near them, they are the cancer of this world..."

The third monster interrupts him by saying "Humans are evil creatures that is the truth but Zeral, he is not evil he is just confused, if we can speak to him again without fighting we may get him back on our side if we just make him believe that humans are the wrong ones, not us"

The first monster says "Well, after what he did to my brothers I will never forgive him I hope our father, the lord Hirvan will kill him and sent him straight to darkest abyss"

The second add to that "Yes that what he deserves for turning against us, he want to defend humans then you are evil as them and I don't think he will comeback in our side again"

The third one asks "To be honest I don't think our father can kill him, as you see his reaction to hear Zeral is not on our side anymore, his expressions tells that he is afraid of him and I guess he can't kill him right?"

The two other monsters stare at him immediately as he speaking to them then one of them asks

"How dare you to say that?" the other one says with aggression

"Our father doesn't fear no one, he is powerful and he can kill Zeral but as you heard him, he needs that book to do that"

The third monster says "Okay so let me get this straight, our father must get that book to kill Zeral so what makes him God if he uses something to done something while the human's mighty God create this world from nothing..."

The first monster screams at him "Shut up! don't ever think that our father is weak god! he may need this book because he is only one can read it with his holy powers that no other creature cannot even their god can that if he even exists"

The second one adds to that "Yeah he is right, there is no proof that there is another god in this world beside our god if the human god is there then why he never helped them? why he never shows up when they needed him? those humans fought each other for 50 years in just one war and millions died why he never came to stop it or did he even saved the poor people died from disease and starvation"

The first monster says "And why he never helped them against us? huh? is he weak? is he afraid of us? we kill his creation every day and he watching them huh? at least our God wants us to have a bright future and he concerns about our life that is why he wants to kill this Zeral so he can save us and make us win this war"

The third one with fake smile says "Oh yeah you both right I'm sorry for asking that I really shouldn't disbelief in his powers"

Then he left them and go back inside the cave in same time he speaking to himself

"Those fools, they can't understand that Hirvan is not a god, there is no such god to live among us, maybe human god is not real but at least there is no human to proclaimed that he is a god...Hirvan the only one can read it because he was a druid before this and I knew him before I even was there when he tried to poison us with the Zeralizion beast and someday I will prove he is not a real god..."

Meanwhile back to the princess's room, after she ordered everyone to leave the room to expect Zeral so she can speak to him privately

"Come to Sir Adomas sit here" appointing to a chair near her bed

Zeral was confused from her orders to the rest so he says

"Why you told them to leave? Why you want to talk to me alone?"

Donatella says "Come on just come and sit near me I have something important to tell you and yeah we need to be alone for it"

After Zeral set on the chair he asks her "Okay here I sit, so what now? tell me what is this important thing?"

Donatella she grabs his hands by her softly warming hands as her face turning to red, she says

"I want to ask you something but I'm....Mhmm..."

Zeral says as he smiling at her "What? Are you shy? come on tell me"

And when Donatella about to start speaking "Well...Yeah because I want you to..."

Zeral quickly interrupts her as he pulls off his hands from her hands then he says

"No, I refuse, I will not going to marry you, I have no attention for such things and also you are too young for me, I'm at age of your father but I look like a man in twenty"

Donatella screamed at him quickly as she hits him again with the pillow

"HELL NO! What the hell? I wasn't about to ask you that and ewww I don't want to marry anyone too and even if I do I make sure not with such immortal killing machine"

Zeral says as he starts laughing "Hahaha thank god, you are not into me as many women did hahahaha and this pillow hurts you know?"

Then Donatella start laughing as she taking off her anger as well "Hahaha yeah okay well I was about something else but I was shy and I don't know how to ask you this"

Zeral says "to slee...just never mind ah yeah ask me what you want"

Donatella looks at him with a smile and she asks

"Will you train me please and take me with you to fight monsters? I never had chance to tell you this and I always adored you and your legendary fighting skills as I heard, you were like a hero to me when I was young and I wished to get trained by you so I can be good as you are but the general, Sir Alex he will refuse it so I want you to train me in secret so do you accept?"

Zeral start looking to her and in same time thinking then after few seconds he answers her

"Well, I don't know exactly what you heard about me, but I have to tell you I wasn't really legendary! I was a normal warrior with stupid mind and brave in his heart, a man who would fight until the end, who would die for people he loves and protects that is why I always fought with a heart but..."

Donatella asks again "But what?"

Zeral looks down and says "I lost many friends, many soldiers under my commands, many lives I never had chance to save and of course many injuries so when I back I hide under my warrior shadow thing, you know people will clap their hands on me when I walk even if I hadn't been great on the battlefield, they all know who I am so they assume I was a legend and done great job in killing many in single attack like what I'm done earlier"

Donatella says as she grabbing his hands again "But you still a hero, you still that legend and nothing can hide the fact that you were one of best fighters in world and now it seems you add the immortality to it so you are probably the most powerful being in this world"

Zeral says "You don't understand the hard life I lived before and the hell I live now, I may a hero in your mind but in reality I'm not, I wish I can die now or when I was able to die years ago so I would never live like this and I don't want you to be part of it I can't let you get hurt again even that you had real good skills I saw that fire in your heart, I saw the passion towards fighting the enemy in you so you remind me of myself but as I said I can't train you or take you with me"

Donatella with sad face says "No? why? just train me ok and I will not go with you I swear"

Zeral says "Yeah even with that if I train you will believe that you are good enough to fight those monsters and you will think that you can be a legend as me and go there to fight them and get yourself killed, and you will be another soul taken by me so hell no! Dona listen you don't understand the difference between humans and those creatures, they are far stronger than humans and you are immortal as me so you will die if you go to fight them"

Dona agressivly says "I don't care! I will fight them no matter what! even if they kill me I don't care! I want to kill as much as I can...I hate those creatures, they killed my only best friend I had" then she start crying

"They killed Marco, my best friend...He was son of one of my father's generals, we used to play together when I was young, he came to visit me many times, we had fun but someday I heard that monsters attacked him along with his family inside their chariot when they were getting back to city of Kolino that is why I'm here to fight in same city he came from so he can watch me avenging his death"

Zeral put his hands on her face and start cleaning her tears as he saying

"Come on stop crying, everyone lost someone precious to him and I understand that, but to drive yourself to death will not make him back therefore I'm sure he is up there watching you and wishing that you will be safe and you will be there in the day when humans defeat monsters and that day it may come sooner than you think if I made Hirvan read this book"

After Donatella take moments to stop crying and get herself up then she wonders about the book that could end this war

"Okay, I'm good now, so tell me what is this book you talking about? and how this book can stop this war?"

Zeral with a smile in face again "Well this book it is only way to take off the immortality inside me and Hirvan and if that so, then monsters will lose suddenly if their god is no more, without him they will fall and many will try to look for peace with humans and this war will be over and in same time I will finally can rest in peace"

Donatella ask Zeral as she worries about him "But you really want to die, damn it and how you will make him read it?"

Zeral answer her "I'm not sure, I'm thinking about it"

Then she says "Ahhh. And no way, there is no peace anymore, we will kill them all"

Zeral interrupts her "But they were humans before and they turned to monsters by Hirvan and many of them didn't even have chance to refuse so it is not their fault to fight you for supremacy also humans are not angels, you also wanted this war instead of finding a way to live in peace with them...Humans refused them and as you were saying, you all want them to die while they were humans as you"

Then Zeral stands up and says "Ok I'm leaving you now to rest, I have to rest too so see you later" and he left the room while Donatella went in deep thoughts, thinking about what he said to her and how he is going to make Hirvan read that book that can end all of this...

While at the den of Hirvan, a couple of monsters back to their God after they were on mission to take a small town near borders, the monsters report their victory to Hirvan, but he wasn't happy neither looks to care as he really focusing on the way to get the book from the castle

"My Lord after we destroyed that town we can easily move in and out from that side of the border so what is next?" a monster asking Hirvan who answers him this

"Oh great news, and for now listen all of you, we must stay from humans borders for a while because if we do fight humans again we may get attacked from Zeral and he is so dangerous to us so from now on we have to stay out from there and prepare ourselves while I find a way to deal with beast and this is direct order from me"

The Same monster so shocked so he asks again "What? Is he on their side now? how? damn it"

Hirvan answers with much of anxiety "Yes, he is on their side and I can't allow my sons to die from him so until I got this book from the castle to kill this pathetic being we will not attack any city anymore, he could be anywhere and there is no chance of defeating him without this book"

While everyone start to talk about this new order from their god and try to find an idea how to get this book...A monster stand and says

"I got an idea, my lord will you let me say it?"

Hirvan asks this monster "Oh really? yeah, tell me?"

The monster says "I know how to get you the book"

Hirvan start laughing at him "Going by yourself to get it? hahaha, there is no way someone can reach the castle from here and no way a human will help you so how?"

The monster with an evil smile he says "No! Zeral will get it for you, I will speak to him"

Hirvan and most of the monsters start laughing at him "Hahahahah what? Will you speak to him? and he will say oh, of course, I will help you hahaha are you kidding me?" Hirvan asks

The monsters answer with much confidence "I will speak to him, I know Zeral so well before I do that tell me, lord, are you sure he is the hero of Batrack?"

Hirvan stop laughing and answers "Yeah, I remember his face, he was one of best warriors in the king's army and I heard many stories about his victories over the years and he was the only man to help me slay the Zeralizion and never turned his back on me as other soldiers did until now but his name was weird and hard to remember..."

The monster says "Adomas that was his name, I know him very well and I know how to make him bringing us the book that can kill him"

Hirvan surprised from what this monster just told him so he says

"Are you sure? Okay go and try your luck and don't take many of your brothers with you, I don't want them to die with you if you failed but if you succeed in this mission I will reward you as much as you want"

The monster again smiling to Hirvan then says "I don't need them, I will go alone and I will make him doing it for us"

then after he says this, the monster left the cave heading to Kolino city again to speak with Zeral but who is he? and how he knows Zeral real name? and how he will make him go to the castle and bring the book to the monsters?

The End.
