THE FORGOTTEN PRINCESS
455 The Attack on Tarmac (3)
I was in my quarters changing my dress into a more comfortable attire to move in. I was in a hurry so that I could be on the wall before the wyverns arrive.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
“Your majesty.” Tricia called out from outside the door.
“Yes, Tricia?” I asked. “You can come in.”
Tricia came inside while I had just finished tying my clothes.
“Your majesty, I heard that you will be on the front lines.” Tricia asked with a concerned look.
“Yes Tricia.” I replied. “I cannot stand by and watch, knowing that I could help.”
“I know you will say that your majesty.” Tricia replied. “But please promise to be careful. I will be here waiting with your children.”
“Thank you, Tricia.” I replied. “Please watch over my children. Be careful eve if you are here inside the manor.”
“I understand, your majesty.” Tricia replied. “I will guard the prince and princess with my life.”
“Promise me that you will be careful as well.” I said.
“Of course, your majesty.” Tricia replied.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
William knocked on the opened door of my quarters.

“The horses are ready and waiting, your majesty.” William replied.
“I understand.” I said. “I am ready. Let us go.”
I exited my quarters and William followed behind. We headed towards the grounds where my horse was waiting.
Once outside, two horses are already waiting outside. I go to one of the horses and held the reigns. I got up with some help from William.
Traveling towards the wall will be much more faster by horse rather than the carriage, and that is why I asked William to get me a horse.
“Your majesty, we will be following you thru the shadows, so you need not to worry.” The shadow guard emerged from the shadows.
“Thank you.” I replied.
The shadow guard quickly left thru the shadow as quick as he had come.
“Let us go, William.” I said. “Hiyah.”
We moved forward slowly at first and then faster once we were moving. We navigated the streets of Tarmac until we arrived at the walls of the city. I looked up and saw that the walls are at least twenty meters in height.
“Thankfully, the wall is high and looked sturdy.” I said.
“The wall was built a long time ago, as I have heard.” William said. “These were made with invasion from Alvannia in mind. This city is a border city and a strategic spot for warfare.”
“Then it is good that I was able to stop my father from allying with Aunt Patricia in the past war.” I said. “Because if not, then this city would have been devastated by war.”
Thinking of the last war made me remember the death and destruction it had made to Jennovia. I would not want that to happened again.
“Your majesty, captain.” An imperial knight was standing by the stairs going up the wall. “The two groups are already stationed in their assigned posts.
“That is good.” I replied. “Sir William, you can proceed to your designated position. I can go by myself from here.”
“As you wish, your majesty.” William bowed. “A word, if I may.” He asked.
“Of course.” I replied. I nodded to the imperial knight to head on ahead and leave me and Sir William alone.
“Alicia…” William called out my name.
It has been a while since he had called be by my name. I am sure what he is about to tell me now is something my close friend would tell.
“What is it, Will?” I asked. Addressing one another by our names brings back memories when we were much younger.
“I have vowed to always be by your side and protect you. But as you have ordered me to be on the other group, then I cannot do anything.” William said. “Promise me that you will be careful. His majesty will surely scold me if anything happens to you.”
“Do not worry too much, William. I promise you I will be okay.” I smiled. “You know that Regaleon has also thought me some sword skills.” I told him.
“Speaking of swords…” William took out a rapier from his waist.
I was curious a while ago why William was carrying two swords. As what I knew, William and Regaleon were both using longswords. I just realized now that William was carrying the rapier sword intended for me.
“His majesty emperor Regaleon has asked me to hold unto this rapier sword. He had made this specially for you.” William said and handed the rapier sword to me. “He would have wished to give it to you once you two parted ways in Alvannia and gave it to me for safe keeping. I realized that you might need it now. I will apologize to his majesty later on.”
“Thank you, Will.” I replied.
I held the rapier sword in my hands and felt the sheath smoothly. When I put my hand on the hilt, it felt like my hand fits it perfectly to the tee. I unsheathed it and looked at the blade reflect the light from the torch burning by the side.
‘So, Leon had made this specifically for me.’ I thought.
Regaleon had taught me in swordsmanship before and I still know all his teachings by heart. He had taught me how to use a light sword, because that is what my arms and body can manage. What was missing was having a sword of my own.
“I will be heading on then, your majesty.” William bowed and headed towards the gate that exits the city.
Not long, when William exited, I heard a horn blow.
“THE WYVERNS!!!” Someone from up the wall yelled out. “THE WYVERNS ARE HERE!!! CLOSE THE GATE!!!”
The gates exiting the city was closed to a shut. I then ran up the stairs and search for Arnold who was leading the defensive up the wall. While I was running on, I looked out to the field and saw in a distance a hoard of creatures running. They were as big as a horse and were running in two feet.
“Arnold!” I called out once I saw him. He was looking outside the field with dreadful eyes.
“The creatures… there are so many of them.” Arnold said in astonishment. “H-how can we…”
“Do not continue what you are going to say.” I said with seriousness. “We will hold out for the night. We must.”
I looked out and saw the creatures getting nearer. At a close inspection, I saw them with reptilian features with wings.
‘Alicia…’ I heard Snow call telepathically.
I looked at the field just below the wall where the troops were waiting. I saw Snow in her tiger form standing beside William. She was looking up at me.
“Snow!” I called out to her.
‘Do not worry. We will do everything to stop them.’ Snow replied. I nodded in understanding.
‘Be careful.’ I replied telepathically. ‘You and William.’
‘We will.’ Snow replied.
Looking at the hoard, I cannot but help worry about Regaleon and the others with him. If there were this many wyverns, then how are they doing there inside the forest.
Seeing as there was smoke coming from the direction where the facility should be means that fire was burning.
‘Please be alright, Regaleon.’ I wished earnestly.

THE FORGOTTEN PRINCESS
456 The Darkness (1)
(Regaleon’s POV)
Chaos ensued inside the facility. We battled the wyverns that were attacking us from all directions.
“Those that have lightning mana stones and lightning magic, make sure to subdue the wyverns!” I ordered.
My men were fighting hard in order to survive the attack. The creatures were ferocious, we need to be on alert if we do not want to be eaten by these things.
“Tempest, support us from the sky!” I yelled.
“Surely.” Tempest replied.
Tempest flew towards the night sky and transformed into his phoenix form. With it, he rained down fire from above.
“Be sure to evade Tempest’s fire!” I said to my men.
Fire spread in the area. Some of the wyverns were hit directly but it was as if they were not affected by the fire.
“Your majesty, it seems like these creatures are not affected by fire.” One of my men said.
‘Does this mean they have good defense against fire attacks.’ I thought.
‘It seems like my magic power is of no use to these creatures, Regaleon.’ Tempest said. ‘I will use my wind to assist you.’
‘Thanks.’ I replied to him.
The wyverns have thick scales that is hard to pierce thru. Using normal weapons such as swords give a little to no damage.
“Dammit!” I cursed. “This is such a disadvantageous situation.”
My swords blade is starting to get chapped with the hard scales of the wyverns. I then thought of infusing my fire magic towards the blade rather than using my fire armor all over my body. Focusing all of my magic power to my sword will make it more sharper that it can pierce thru anything.
After I have made my sword more useable in this battle, one of my men shouted at me.
“Your majesty!!!” He shouted. “Behind you!!!”
I as caught off guard by a wyvern that snuck behind me in the chaos.
*KIYAH*
The wyvern shrieked that I feltlike my ears would bleed from the sound. The wyvern’s jumped at me and pinned me down with its feet.
“Ahhh…” I shouted in pain.
I felt the claws of its feet sinking on my chest while it pinned me down to the ground.
*KIYAH*
The wyvern’s mouth was about to bite my head off, but I used my left arm to block it.
“Argghhh…” I felt its teeth sink into my flesh.
In that instant I swung my sword and chopped the wyvern’s head off. Its head flew off while its body slumped on top of me.
“Your majesty!” One of my men rushed towards me. He helped me push off the wyvern’s body on top of me. “Are you alright?”
“I am fine…” I replied and sat up. “Ahhh…” I groaned from the pain of my wounds.
“Here, let me help you.” He offered his hand, and I took it with my right hand and got up.
“Tell the others to focus their magic powers thru their swords. It will give their weapons a better edge against these creatures.” I said.
“I will relay your words, your majesty.” He replied. “But please, take refuge. You cannot fight with your injuries.”
“I am fine. I can manage.” I replied. “I will need a breather first. You and go back to the battle.”
“Yes, your majesty.” He replied and went on ahead.
I took out the bandages from my first aid pack and started to bandage my wound by myself.
“It would have been great if I can heal myself.” I said to myself. But my white magic ability cannot be used on myself.
Once I was done bandaging my wounds, I stood up and was about to go back to the fight when Raymond walked by as if he was in a daze. His looks were not of himself, his skin turned into gray and his eyes were all black. It was like he was a walking corpse.
“Raymond!” I called tohis attention.
Raymond slowly looked towards my way and saw me. He was mumbling something that I cannot understand from a distance. He looked straight to me in a daze.
“Chosen one… chosen one…” Raymond was mumbling. “I-I must get to the chosen one…” He continued.
Raymond continued to walk slowly towards the direction of the city ignoring my presence.
“No…” I muttered.
When I heard what Raymond was saying, I knew in that instant of whom he is speaking. He was targeting my son, Alphonse.
“I will not let you near him!” I said and rushed to attack him.
My sword was about to land on him but then a black mass enveloped his body and shielded him.
“W-What the…” I was surprised with what just happened.
A black mass was hovering around the body of Raymond. I felt something sinister with it.
“The chosen one… must get to the chosen one.” Raymond continued to walk.
“No! I will not let you!” I attacked once again the black mass defended him from my attacks.
‘Even with my sword enhance with my magic powers cannot cut thru this black mass.’ I thought. ‘What is this?’
Three wyverns came to the defense of Raymond. I was at a disadvantage now that I am injured.
*KIYAH*
The wyverns shrieked. I stood my guard thinking of defending their attacks. Two of the creatures rushed for the attack while one stood by Raymond. He climbed the wyvern and it started to flap its wings.
“It can fly?” I was surprised.
We did not have any reports that these creatures could fly, but it looks like the adult ones can.
The wyvern that was carrying Raymond started to lift from the ground and into the air. I was determined for it not to take flight.
“No!” I shouted.
I conjured fire balls and targeted the wyvern’s wings. I hoped that my fire balls might at least do damage with their thin wings. But when my fire balls were about to hit the wyvern’s wings midflight, the two wyverns jumped up and defended it.
“No…” I was not able to stop Raymond’s wyvern from flying away. “Sh*t!”
The two wyverns that were left started to stalk me from two sides. I was not able to give chase to Raymond and his wyvern. I must take care of these two wyverns first.
I focused my magic power on my sword once again. I waited for the wyverns to make their first move. The two wyverns decided to move at the same time and use a pincer attack.
“Sh*t!” I cursed and thought hard what to do.
But then a strong gust of wind blew and threw the two wyverns. Tempest came down from the sky. He grabbed one of the wyverns with his claws and squeezed it hard. The wyvern shrieked in pain and combusted. Fire ate the wyvern’s body until it turned to ash.
“Their bodies may have resistance to fire, but they are not fully fireproof.” Tempest said. “They can be burned with a huge amount of fire power.”
“I see.” I smirked.
I raised my right hand and focused on the other wyvern. Deep in concentration I focused all my energy and ignited the wyvern.
*KIYAH*
The wyvern shrieked loudly until it dropped down, its flesh burning.
“Regaleon, the wyverns have all gone to the direction of the city.” Tempest reported.
“As I thought. They are after my son, Alphonse.” I said. “Let us go after them. I need to get there as soon as possible.”
“Then hop on.” Tempest lowered his body so that I could climb on his back.
Once I was on him, he opened his wings wide and lifted from the ground.
“All of those that can still fight, go back to the city!” I ordered my men down below. “The wyverns are attacking the city!”
My men that were still able to fight rode their horses and heeded my orders.
