Chapter Ten

Above the clouds, where thick ice is melting because of the warm sunlight. It's incredible that however warm the sunlight is and whatever melts will happen to the clouds made of ice, they will not melt. They only looked like they were melting, but it was just an illusion and the truth is that they are not even ice, but an imaginary thing.
Castillo de Saat will definitely be demolished if the Antipatrisians who believed in the God of goodness become fewer. As it stands, because of their beliefs, as their beliefs help create the facts. Though there are some bad people, there are also many good people. It means only one thing: that wickedness can reign when pigs fly.
Inside the hall of Castillo De Saat, the demigods and their deity are talking about what will happened to Antipatris right now that they don't have any king to rule over the kingdom. Al Zhein, Heshnok, Elyza, Felix and the couple named Xander and Lystra, the couple known as the couple of Goodness and are also the demigods of goodness. They are sitting on the golden pews beside the golden table.
"Master Al Zhein, one of our messenger told us that you summoned me and my wife Lystra here. Can you tell us what we needed to talk about?" Xander asked.
Xander put the fingers of his left hand between the fingers of his right hand and placed them above the golden table.
"The news about the king of Antipatris had spread quickly around the kingdom and it's impossible that you don't know the reason why you needed to talk about," Felix replied.
"Felix, don't you interrupt when we are talking about something, you may sounds disrespectful, you better go out the hall first so that you cannot disturb us," Heshnok reprimanded.
Slowly, Felix stood up and went outside the hall. He actually meant to interrupt in their conversation though he seemed to be disrespectful. He know that his father will let him go outside the castle and visit his girlfriend, because of being rude. On the glossy floor of the voluminous castle, he continued walking. He went towards the wide door when he saw someone that sitting there.
In a white cloak, it's Ylarry who looked handsome and innocent. He's sitting on the glossy floor beside the silver door of the castle. He's looking outside the courtyard and seemed to be thinking deeply about something.
"Bro, why you are just sitting here alone? You want to listen to our family's conversation, didn't you?" Felix asked. He sat down on the floor beside his brother.
"No—they will just talked about monotonous things. Why won't you be the one to listen to them?" Ylarry asked.
"We're just the same, I don't want to listen in their talks, they will just discuss about finding the deserving man to be the next king of Antipatris."
"Finding the next king of Antipatris? That sounds interesting, but why won't you asked them to crown you as the next king? You told me that you aspire to be the next king of the kingdom, didn't you?" Ylarry asked.
"You are right, but I know that the king's responsibility is not easy as what you thought, and it will just add to my busyness and I cannot see my girlfriend any longer," Felix replied.
"You have a point, being the king of Antipatris is not easy because the whole kingdom is so voluminous. By the way, are you really sure that your girlfriend loved you?"
"Yeah, why you suddenly asked me that?"
"Nothing. I'm just curious, because I just felt uncomfortable when I saw her. You know, she looked like a daughter of wickedness that has many bad intentions."
"Maybe you just felt that because you still not having a girlfriend until now. Why won't you just try having a girlfriend and you will be insecure if what you felt is not love, but lust. If your truly love a girl, you will not doubt her," Felix explained, then stood up and went towards the courtyard.
"Where are you going?" Ylarry asked.
"I will be going to Sandra!" Felix jumped out from the wall.
Ylarry feel bored in doing nothing in Castillo De Saat, the reason why he also run towards the courtyard and jumped down the sky, to join with his brother in going to the land of Antipatris.
Lydia saw her master that was diving down the sky, and her happy face turned glum, because her master went away again. She was thinking that Felix is so selfish because he's always bringing Ylarry when he went somewhere. For sure, she will be reporting her masters to their mother again that they went somewhere for their absurdness. Lydia might have a power of being the queen of gossipers, because she also knew when Ylarry and Felix went to the jungle of Kacatulam. She was also the reason why they were scolded by their mother.
Inside the hall of Castillo De Saat, the demigods of goodness were still having a meeting about what they will be doing to find the man whom they believed that was destined to be the next king of Antipatris.
"Master Al Zhein, why won't we make an ordeal to know if who's deserving to be the next king, it will be interesting if there are many young people who will join the competition to gain the throne of Antipatris," Lystra suggested.
"That's a clever idea!" Heshnok exclaimed. "Father Al Zhein, there are many strong, brave and powerful students in Tyrannus. We can hold the competition in that school, and convince the students to join in the ordeal to become the next king."
"That's the best thing to do in order to know the person who was destined and deserves to reign its sovereignty, but make sure that there will be no espionage of wickedness that will be destroying the peace during the competition."
The first words that came out from Al Zhein's lips is definitely suit for him as a good demigod. It sounds soothing and seemed to relieve someone from a turbulent emotions.
At the same time, Ylarry and his brother were flying in the air. They are going to the land called Phrygia. An abundant land within the kingdom of Antipatris that was ruled by the couple or demigods of goodness.
In a white cloak, is a man named Felix. He landed on the land of Phrygia, and was surprised to see someone standing at his front. It's his brother that was already standing there before he arrived. There's a big surprised on his face, because he flies down very quickly from Castillo De Saat, but his brother reached the destination before him.
"Oh bro, what are you doing here?" Felix asked, appalled. "And how could you be faster than me, as if you were already here before I landed?"
"Can I join you going to your girlfriend, you know, I can do nothing in Castillo De Saat, I will just drown in boredom," Ylarry replied.
"And don't make me feel like you had not been from Tyrannus when you looked surprised as that. If you really studied in Tyrannus, you already know how to fly quickly like a lightning, because it was taught there."
"Maybe flying like a lightning was taught in Tyrannus, but it was many years when I went in that school and I might forgotten what was taught by the teachers."
"Forgotten? Or they had not entered in your brain?"
He lulled for a moment. "Both, hahahaha!" Felix laughed. "There's one and only rule if you want to go with me, you must not be grumpy in Sandra's front, else I will be kicking you."
"Don't worry, I will not let my brother embarrass to his girlfriend, though he could not even defeat me in flying quickly," Ylarry replied. "Hahahaha!" He laughed at his own.
They continued walking on the concrete road. There are many houses that was made of bricks in their both sides. The impressive palace of Lystra and Xander can be seen ahead, it seemed to be standing at the end of the road.
Many people are sitting on the benches outside their impressive houses. They seemed to scrutinize Ylarry as they straightly looked at him and without blinking even just for a heartbeat. Ylarry is also curious why the eyes of the people that lived in this place seemed to jump out from their faces as they stares at him.
"Bro, is it true that the people here are looking at me straightly and without blinking? Can you tell me why these people are so weird?" Ylarry furrowed his forehead asking his brother.
"Just don't mind them, they are just looking at you because they had not see you here once. You just felt weird about them at first, but you will be accustomed if you always see them."
Ylarry can't be calm as he felt like there are many eyes watching him, though he was not even affected when Lydia was always staring at him. He's like a fish out of water because wherever he would look, many eyes are watching. Eyes that seemed to jump towards him. He thought that it would be better if he didn't join his brother in going to Sandra's house.
"We're finally here!" Felix exclaimed. He stopped at the front of the impressive house. "Sandra! Yohoo! Are you there?"
The house was closed and it seemed that there's nobody inside. The place is drowned in silence and unlike in the mainland of Antipatris, there's not even a little gossips of people that can be hear, and that's weird. Maybe it was the way of people in showing sorrow because of what happened to king Hezekiah. They are not talking with other people, because they are also drowned in gloom.
"Bro, it seemed that your girlfriend is not here," Ylarry said.
"No—she must be here, maybe she didn't heard my voice, but don't worry, I will be entering in this house to know." Felix attempted to open the door of the house by using his power, but he stopped when there was someone saying something while going towards them.
"Sir Felix, how are you?" The woman asked. "Are you searching for the woman who was staying in this house?"
"That's exactly the reason why we went here, is she inside?"
"Sorry to disappoint you sir, but Sandra is not here anymore, maybe she went back to her home," the woman replied, then she continued walking on the concrete road.
Felix sky turned cloudy hearing those words from the old woman's lips. He never expected that he cannot see the woman that made him fell in love again. He just looked at Ylarry and seemed to share his sadness with his brother.
"That's just okay, bro, I'm sure that if you're destined for each other, you will surely be meet again, by destiny," Ylarry said.
"That's exactly what I thought, I know that in love is not just full of happiness and excitement. We must be prepared for the possibility that someone may leave us. We must be prepared if the world will be going against us, because we cannot predict what's going to happened." Felix replied in a very sad voice. He went towards the black bench by the roadside and sat down there.
"Wow... that's so deep!" Ylarry exclaimed, then he leaned on the lamppost by the roadside, as what he always did.
Actually, Sandra had made a deep hole in Felix heart. A deep hole that was bleeding, as it covers itself wth prolific blood. Felix thought that everything was his mistake and not Sandra's, because he couldn't spend even a little time with her. That might be the reason why she chose to leave and may not go back again. Felix blames himself for he thought that their amourette had been destroyed because of his defects.
"You don't need to be sad bro. We better go home, because our mother will be scolding us again if she know that we went somewhere."
"You better go back first to Castillo De Saat. I just want to be alone and I believed that Sandra will not leave me like that. She will go back here again to see me," Felix replied.
