MEILIN’S REBORN (Battle Of The Heart And Throne)

PEACOCK PALACE**

These past days, Nevaeh had used it to blend around a bit in the palace, though she’s still sad about Gianna’s death, she’s trying her best to stay occupied by loading herself with a lot of work to do.

Currently she’s at her grandmother’s chamber, helping her to paint

“Grandma look at what I painted, how’s this?” She asked.

Grandma Susan collected the painting from her and smiled.

“My granddaughter does know how to paint really nicely” Susan said in pure amusement and Nevaeh just smiled.

“Grandma, I would love to visit the training room. I want to learn how to fight like a pro with a sword,” She said slowly.

Grandma Susan dropped the painting and stared at her.

“Why do you want to learn how to fight? Aren’t your personal bodyguards doing well?” She asked.

“They are but I don’t want them to be fighting for me everything I want to fight for myself too grandma” Nevaeh pleaded, batting her lashes.

“Listen dear, I’m not against you learning how to use a sword but you know you just recovered your powers and body, I’m afraid that it might be too dangerous for you. Maybe we can try discussing this later okay” grandma Susan replied with a pleading smile.

Nevaeh wanted to talk but she just decided to keep shut because she knows that her grandma won’t answer her anymore.

“Okay grandma” she grunted lowly.

After spending some time with her grandmother, Nevaeh stepped out with a scoff.

“If Grandma won’t answer me then I’ll just have to learn by myself, I will avenge Gianna” she said in her mind as she stepped out of grandma Susan chamber.

Her personal maid and female bodyguard were waiting for her outside, the moment they saw her, they straightened up.

“Princess, how was your meeting with Grandma Susan?” The maid named Oprah asked.

“You know it was boring” Nevaeh replied and walked past them.

They immediately ran after her and she stopped then turned back to look at June, her female bodyguard.

“Who taught you how to use the sword?” She asked.

“I trained with the armies before I was assigned to work for you” June replied.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Can you teach me how to fight with it?” She pleaded.

“Well Princess your brother and your grandma said…

Nevaeh immediately went on her knees.

“Please, just teach, I beg you,” she pleaded.

“Princess” June and Oprah gasped at once, they tried raising her up but she didn’t bulge.

“I’ll never stand up till you agree to teach me” Nevaeh faked a cry.

June and Oprah went on their knees too.

“Highness…

“Don’t highness her and agree already!” Oprah shouted and June immediately nodded.

“Fine princess, I’ll teach you please stand up” she pleaded.

“Now, will you teach me now?” Nevaeh asked.

“Yes I’ll teach you now please stand up” June pleaded and Oprah nodded.

“Fine” Nevaeh smiled and stood up then.

“Lead the way to the training room” she ordered and June nodded immediately.

THE TRAINING ROOM***

June silently opened the door and they all stepped in.

The room was covered with a lot of swords and weapons.

“Awesome” Nevaeh smiled and walked closer to the stands, where the weapons were kept.

She took a long sword and stared at it with her eyes sparkling.

“I can use this one to chop his heart out of his chest” she muttered and faced front imagining the image of Zachary standing there.

She tried to stab him with it but the scream brought her back to her senses.

It was Oprah who screamed because Nevaeh was about to stab her just now.

“Princess please just put down the sword, I don’t want to die early” she pleaded.

Nevaeh smiled shortly and took the sword cover then covered it.

“From now on, this is mine, I’m keeping it” she said and kissed it.

“Okay your highness” June nodded.

“I’m not just taking only this sword, the both of you take all these weapons to my room” she ordered.

“All of them?” Oprah asked.

“What’s wrong with that?” Nevaeh crossed her arms.

“Nothing but if we take all of them, the general will find out and when he reports, your brother will find out, not just your brother but your grandma too” Oprah replied and June nodded.

“Fine, take only from this place” she pointed to a stand and June nodded.

After they had packed with their needs they slowly stepped out and Nevaeh had a devious smile on her face.

‘Zachary Chen wherever you are just wait for me, I’m going to kill you’ she thought and stared at her sword again.

DEMON KINGDOM**

Zachary and Harmony both arrived at the old kingdom together.

The place looked as tattered as how Xia Meilin had left it.

The bodies of those late armies that died thousands of years ago had turned into skeletons already.

“This was how that hole burnt down all our kingdom,” Harmony said painfully.

Zachary didn’t reply to her, he kept looking everywhere.

He remembered where his mother died, the place where Chuyun had stabbed her and he walked closer and bent there then touched the floor.

*Mother* he called in his mind as he looked at the floor.

Harmony moved closer to him on the attempt of touching his shoulders but her hand only in the mid air before she folded her fist and brought her hands back down.

Zachary closed his eyes tight then opened it back and slowly stood up.

He looked around the palace and it was really burnt, there was no space left, not even a single chance to go in.

He retreated his gaze from there then moved it to where his father died.

The sword his father dipped on the ground was still there, looking, fresh, shining and neat.

“Father” he muttered and slowly walked towards the sword.

His long fingers trailed around the head of the sword as his eyes glimmered.

This was the exact sword he saw in his memory, the sword his father used to attack Xia Meilin but failed.

He shut his eyes tight and opened it back before slowly going on his knees.

*My… Son.. will.. avenge what .. you did . to… me … to… day* He recalled his father’s last words before he had died.

Slowly he brought the second hand up and placed it on the sword head, holding the sword with both hands.

“From now on, I’m no longer Zachary Chen or General Kia, I will bear Lord Draco… I will take after my father and I will kill everyone that wronged him.. I will build up the demon’s empire and I will restore our kingdom” he vowed for the second time.

Harmony just watched silently and the cloud began turning dark, lightning began occurring and some strong wind began blowing.

Zachary shot his eyes tight and began uprooting the sword out of the ground.

It began coming out, slowly by slowly and strong veins began forming on his neck and forehead.

“My lord” Harmony called worriedly.

He let out a loud growl as he pulled the sword out with force.

“My lord” Harmony wanted to rush to him but the strong force that came along with the sword pushed her back.

She flew and landed far away then spat out blood, passing out immediately.

He finally pulled the sword out and the lightning along with the storm increased.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!” he growled out and raised the sword up in the air then some dark stones began forming it’s way on his forehead.

The rain increased, the lightning increased and the wind blew harder.

His eyes turned deep red and he slowly brought his hands down.

A low and dangerous smirk appeared on his face as he stared at the sword.

“Thank you, my son,” he said in a deep, masculine and different voice.
