《Waiting for Death》Chapter 10: Sleep...
Advertisement
“Sleep well my love” The words utter out of know where.
Axel felt a warm feeling arise in his heart that crept into his mind and he felt himself drift into an even deeper dream which seemed he would forever stay until that warm feeling will come again to grant him passage to leave.
Raynar sighed several times while a tear slid down her cheek and land landed on her turquoise dress. Two hands appeared on both sides of Raynar’s shoulders and squeezed lightly to offer comfort. The hands belonged to Sharvani and Vanessa, whom both were gazing down affectionately at Axel just like Raynar was. All three of these Goddesses had tears falling down their cheeks, yet the sight of baby Axel caused them to have a slight trace of a smile on their lips.
“Yes, my sisters…I have sealed his memories and part of his spirit, so that his personality and knowledge will not cause him harm in the future. Vanessa it seems that Axel will not bicker with you anymore.” said Raynar.
Vanessa sniffles a little to try to hold back her tears, yet they still flood down her cheeks. Shockingly, Sharvani, the usual emotional one, becomes the strength for the trio and says “It is time to send him back.” The words barely escaped her mouth before she started choking with tears streaming down her face. Raynar nods and a turquoise light envelops Axel, who then disappears from the trio of Goddesses midst to leave them crying out in their sorrow.
Meanwhile Axel, as most babies are most of the time, was heavily asleep, but for some strange reason a tear fell out of his eye to roll down his cheek onto his lips where you would find a regretful smile that should not appear on one so young. Outside of his crib was Mistress Mary, who was laying on a white comforter bed that was laced with many different designs. Her body heaves up and down while she was in a deep slumber with her hand holding on to the rail of the crib. Her peaceful face scowls as she is in her slumber and her eyes flutter open.
She disappears from the bed and appears by the window with her arms crossed and foot lightly tapping the floor seeming to be waiting for something or someone.
Let it be known that Axel’s room is at least five stories up in the air, yet for some reason, a person’s hand appears and grips the sides of the window.
An elderly man face appears and with a strange look in his eye, he gazes throughout the room to see if anyone is there and also if there is any alarm spells active. Since he doesn’t see or sense anyone or any spells, he floats inside and land soundlessly.

Back in Mary’s room, Mary is staring down through her window while clenching her teeth. She could not help but feel a little humility. Originally, she had plan to stay by Axel’s side to protect him, since his naming caused such a phenomenal event; however, she forgot that they were in her room instead of Axel’s. She murmured a “tsk” sound through her clenched teeth, then she disappeared from where she was standing.
The elderly man gaze falls on Axel’s crib and he leisurely walks over to it, thinking about what his master the Holy Human Emperor mirror messaged him to do to the mutt.
“Your mission this time is a quite covert one, so no supercilious actions or anything to expose me. You are to fly to the Duke Vance’s castle to get blood essence and put a soul bond on his newborn son if you can. If not or the situation is perilous, kill him and send bring his body to me. I expect the first option”
The elderly man snickered to himself…
About time I was getting tired of staying in this mutt’s dukedom in the Pseudo-Human Emperor’s Empire. After this mission I can finally go back to the Holy Empire and get out of the Graceland Kingdom! This mission is my golden ticket to heaven.
The elderly man shook himself from his thoughts and started placing what would appear to be stones all around Axel’s crib. The elderly man’s essence stated to converge in to some type of mysterious array that brought with it a foreboding presence.
At that moment the door opened to Axel’s room, a young maid entered and quietly shut the door behind her. The elderly man sighed to himself while his face softened and diverted his attention to her, thus the mysterious array vanished.
“I thought you would wait at the Teleportation Gate and not continue to be I tis filthy place of mongrels. My dear child you do not have to endure this horrid place any longer. No doubt when we return to the Holy Empire you will be heavily rewarded for the intelligence you have gathered for these several years.”
“My lord, I just did not want to wait at Teleportation Gate with all of those traitorous humans that have forsaken their own kind! Anyway I heard the Ashburn family has been acting quite brazenly and almost revealed their relation with the Holy Empire. I am not worried about that issue being revealed, since the higher-ups of Graceland Kingdom already know about them having a relationship. I am worried that they will reveal all of the spies we have planted in the Graceland Kingdom.”

The elderly man could not help but gnash his teeth and think that his return to the Holy Empire will be slightly postponed for he can deal with this mess!
“Child you do not have to suffer along with me, I will personally go to the Teleportation Gate and send you back along with this medallion for procedures can go more smoothly for you”
“Thank you my lord!”
The elderly man face arose a warming smile and once more diverted his attention to start back converging the mysterious array. The young maid stood by while her eyes expressed the fascination of awe. Her gaze were focused on the hand-signs the elderly man was weaving and thought to herself what she would give to be this powerful for she can serve the Holy Empire.
Outside Axel’s room, you could see a tall voluptuous shape with her chest heaving up and down, while trying desperately to stifle laughter. The tall voluptuous shape is Mary, who had long since already arrived at Axel’s room. She stood outside patiently being entertained by theatrics of these spies. She watched as the man tried to put a controlling hex bond on the pillow she had conveniently placed under the cover in Axel’s crib. She thought to herself that some humans were so dumb…
Hmm, I could capture them and deliver them to Vance; however, that would not benefit the clan. I could also let them go while they are thinking this little fiasco of theirs succeeded, yet this will eventually work in Graceland Kingdom favor. I got it! I will just kill them, that way the Radiant Kingdom would think this little fiasco was deterred by Graceland Kingdom, which would sow unrest and greater hostilities. The two human kingdoms hostilities with each other will cause them to weaken and prey for my clan and the other Noble Family clans.
Mary vanished and reappeared between the elderly man and young maid to tap each of them on the forehead, while the two in turn fell limply to the floor. From the time Mary took action and killed the elderly man and young maid, it only took less than a measly second. The two corpses did not even know how they died. The two were just endeavoring in a covert meritorious mission for the Radiant Kingdom would fail. A last the faithful subjects died and their soul-blood essence nameplates located in the Radiant Kingdom sent out a quick distress signal and then proceeded to explode.
In the Radiant Kingdom, the nicknamed Holy Human Emperor was fuming with madness, he could not believe this mission he sent out actually failed. The notice he received from nameplate vault was news he did not want to hear. His fingers kept strumming the throne in thought of what he should do. After a few minutes, the angry demeanor he was exuding completely disappeared and on his face you could see his lips etched into a creepy smile.
Back in Axel’s room was chuckling to herself, which would be unnerving to anyone if they were there. Her chuckling gradually came to a stop and thought of what she should do with the bodies. She could not decide so she just picked the two corpses up, walked over to the window, and leapt from it. If there were any spectators around they would have noticed she was flying! That could only mean she had extremely high cultivation!
Mary landed on the ground by the pond and her mouth parted to give rise to a melodious sound of a whistle, which reverberated across the pond to the murky depths of it. Suddenly ripples stated to appear on the ponds surface and a huge monstrosity burst out of the pond with its mouth open. The monstrosity let out a whine and Mary threw the two corpses in its mouth. You could hear the sounds of the corpses being mutilated by the monstrosity’s teeth as it chewed, while blood sprayed from his lips and flowed down his chin. The monstrosity gulped down the corpses and made a whine for more. Once it saw there was not going to be any more appetizers, it submerged back into the murky depth of the pond.
Mary face plastered a grin as she flew up to her room’s window and landed gracefully inside. She swaggered over to Axel’s crib to pinch his cheek affectionately and jumped into her bed. Not too long after, you could hear snores that were so loud you would think there was a beast slumbering in the room. In Axel’s crib, you could a scowl etched on his face, which was not an expression that should appear on one so young; however, the expression quickly vanished just as it arrived.
A fragrant breeze blew into the room and washed over Axel, the breeze bought with it words which said
“Sleep peacefully my Astarot”
