Demontus!! hold my hand firmly shouted Royston. Soon the current of the water portal reduced, tiny water droplets floated along with the duo. Demontus saw the end of the vortex and closed its eyes. They both thrown out from the water portal, Lord Royston got hit on the land and fainted, the water portal disappeared within seconds.
Meantime at Evila,
Why father hasn’t come yet!! Could we go and check at Dinolaya, asked lord Kraity.
He is our father, the strongest empyrean. We need not worry about him, successfully he will be returning with his scepter, said lord Pitheceus.
(Quetzalcoatlus landed in Evila)
The Quetzalcoatlus kept its giant wings close to its body, with a snort and shake of its head, the creature began to shrink. Scales disappeared into skin and the long elongated head pushed back into more Empyrean form and revealed Lord Tyrant Seth.
Here comes our father with his scepter of power. Come, Let’s welcome him, said lord Pitheceus.
(Kraity and Pitheceus genuflected before Tyrant)
We welcome the new emperor of Empyrea, and we wish you to become the emperor of the universe soon, greeted lord Pitheceus.
You idiot!! I am not the emperor yet. I need to grab the throne from that Royston, snarled lord Tyrant.
(Tyrant walked into the cave)
Father looking upset, don’t leave any wrong words, whispered Kraity to Pitheceus.
(Tyrant looked at his cut finger)
Father!! Where is your thumb finger, what happened..? Who did this to you, raged lord Kraity.
Oh, my dear!! It’s nothing, while playing with that human he cut my finger with my own scepter, said lord Tyrant and made his finger grow with his powers.
That human cut your finger!! I am not going to leave him, raged lord Pitheceus.
Don’t spoil our plan with your stupidity, he is so brave!! He defeated me in the scepter battle. I never saw a bravest human like him, he will lead our dark warriors and help us to conquer the universe soon, said lord Tyrant.
But father why you left him, he has harmed you, you must have killed him at the same place, raged lord Kraity.
Oh dear!! He moved his scepter so well, I can’t able to defend me. At last, I fooled him by saying the dark toxin as the bravery potion otherwise he must have retained the scepter. Really, he is a capable person to own my scepter, said lord Tyrant.
Excuse me!! Are you praising our opponent, he is a stupid human, not even know how to lead his army, he failed to lead the powerful dino army, raged lord Pitheceus.
I didn’t look him as our opponent. I value him as our asset. He is so brave. He cannot be defeated in the battle of martial arts, said lord Tyrant.
Father!! Father!! You are raging me, ok we leave this. We got back our scepters, what’s our next move, asked lord Pitheceus.
Our next move will be conquering the throne in Armania, and as part of our plan I need your heart, said Tyrant and laughed cruelly (cave echoed with his laughter)
Ext: Somewhere outside Empyrea
Lord Royston, wake up? what happened to you? whispered Demontus.
Oosssh!! Where are we? whispered Royston and viewed the external environment around him, his jaw drops and said Oh my goodness.
The winter winds were cold and harsh, laced with particles of hail and snow. The air was dry, and the sun was hidden.
Now, Royston and Demontus were standing on a cliff of a snow covered flying white mountain, the snowflakes are flying everywhere around them. There were many flying mountains around them, but the mountain which they were is the tallest among all. From the top view Royston can see the lovely falls, rivers, and lush green vegetation.
On the other side, Demontus is starring something else, which is more magnificent than the snow filled mountains. When Royston turned and saw the sight, his hands automatically gone to his mouths to shut it with extreme amazement.
Demontus were sighting on the flying birds all over the place, those birds are not the ordinary, the snow filled mountains and the snowflakes hide their white color body appearance. They are the Pegasus, which are happily flying around the place and produces the rainbow sparks in their lovely wing clasp.
This is a first time I am seeing a Pegasus, said Royston with open mouth. Soon a Pegasus flew near to them and landed on the left sided mountain where there were peach trees, fig trees, and vines covered with the luscious purple bunches. There were more Pegasus near to the trees, they were in different colors and enjoying their time by running and flying at this lovely place. Royston once again looked at the running Pegasus and found they aren't Pegasus, those are unicorns with lovely horns on their heads and with an attractive tail and the back.
Haaa!! My Sylvia need to be here, she will love it. But what place is this, asked Royston with great astonishment.
Royston, we need to leave this place soon; I am not allowed to be in this place, take me back soon, requested Demontus.
But, what place is this in Empyrea, why aren't you allowed here, asked Royston.
Royston!! This isn't Empyrea, this is Emla (Moon of Planet Vathura), this is the place where the pure souls live, as a dark warrior I am not allowed here, please take me back, requested Demontus.
Wait!! We need to find Ejeeth, and also need to find our quest for come here, said Royston.
A sudden wing clasp sound made them to turn back. Their jaw drops once again, and the eyes saw Ejeeth riding on a lovely ash color flying elk. The elk was in 8feet height with massive antlers, its white with ash color wings spread up to 10 feet. They both stare in extreme amazement as the Elk passes them.
Lord!! Don't delay, get a bird, rescue your friends soon and come to our camp, shouted Ejeeth on his flight. Soon the circular water portal opened for him at the sky.
Ejeeth!! How to catch these birds? shouted Royston.
Lord!! Don't catch them, instead help them and they will help you back, meet you soon in our camp, don't delay, said Ejeeth and entered the water portal.
(Water portal closed)
Help them!! I can't understand him, said Royston.
Soon Demontus heard a whimpering sound of some creature, they both searched for it all over the mountain, and found it some feet below the steeply mountain slope. The creature was fully covered with snow except its leg. With the leg they guessed that must be the Pegasus or Unicorn.
Demontus!! We need to risk for sure, hold my hands, let's get down and help it, said Royston.
Lord Royston tightly held his scepter, and hit the bottom edge of it in the ground to break the sloping mountain. The effort benefited him the sloppy area broke a little and turned as a step for them. All the way he hit his scepter in the ground and went to the creature. The creature's head found to be stuck in the rock.
Lord Royston with his nature powers lifted the rock and hurled it towards the sky. By seeing the flying rock in the sky with his powers, he didn't believe his own eyes, he once again let out the words OMG. But Demontus is speechless.
Why aren't you speaking anything, didn't that flying rock looked magical to you, asked Royston and saw the lying creature, his jaws once again dropped down.
The lying creature is in gleam white with golden color feathers, 9feet in length, and its wing alone lengths 14feet. Its back body is like a horse with hind legs and a tail. Its front body is like an eagle with razor sharp beak and massive talons.
That's a Hippogriff!! OMG!! OMG!! I can't believe my eyes, excitingly said Royston.
(Hippogriff shivers)
Oh, it's shivering, let me help it, said Royston and softly touched the bird with his scepter. The scepter released some heat ad warmed the Hippogriff. Soon it recovered and stood before them, the duo were sighting with extreme incredulity.
Hippogriff screeched and licked Royston with love.
Hahaha!! You are tickling me, enough, enough, Said Royston.
(Hippogriff stopped its licking)
Will you to take us to Empyrea for saving our friends, asked Royston.
Hippo
griff made a screech and bent its head down, Royston and Demontus sat on it and without warning, fourteen foot wings flapped open on either side of them, Royston just had time to seize the hippogriff around its neck, and Demontus at the hip of Royston.
The hippogriff flew downwards the hill, made them holler in fear and later flew upwards to the sky, and soon the ware portal opened, the hippogriff took them into the portal, and the portal exited them in the sky of Empyrea at the borders of Falconnia and Dinolaya.
Demontus, we will go to Dinolaya first, will save Ameer, then to Sorgamia and while returning back to Armania, we could rescue Lee at Nagamalya. Be focused and once you see them, notify me, ordered Royston and both flew into Dinolaya.
Surprising!! I have never seen Dinolaya so silent as this, said Demontus while entering it.
Then the silent place has more troubles for us, said Royston.
Soon Demontus saw something weird and made the hippogriff to land them on the ground. It landed them at the place where Tyrant and Ameer faced each other. Demontus picked a thumb finger from the ground and showed it to Lord Royston.
OMG!!! who's finger is that?? I pray it shouldn't be Ameer's, said Royston.
Demontus licked the blood in it, saw the past event and said, it's not Ameer's, it's my masters finger.
How you say them by tasting the blood, asked Royston.
Well that's one of dark warriors power. And coming to Ameer, he is so brave enough to defeat my master initially. But these black sand smells like it got the droplet of Dark toxin, my master has made Ameer fell in his trap and gave him the dark toxin, he must be somewhere around here, lets search for him.
Royston and Demontus ran all over the place and searched for him, and at last found him half dead, tears poured out from Royston's eyes. Ameer able to see him and but can't able to respond to him.
Lord!! We need to leave soon, My masters family isn't soft like humans, we need to start soon to save our lives, said Demontus.
Soon Royston and Demontus sees a massive shadow on them, a shrill cry sounded against them, they turn to see it and found that to be the flying dinosaur Quetzalcoatlus. That's a matured quetzal with more than 11foot in height, its beak is almost lengths 2foot and the wingspan lengths more than 16foot. It opened its wide beak and headed towards Royston and Demontus, but they stood unanswerable. But, it shut it with extreme force when there is just a feather gap between them.
The brave creature Hippogriff saved them from the quetzal, flew towards it and lifted it with its sharp claws and threw other side. But quetzal is open for more attacks. The fight between the birds started, they both stared each other by spreading their huge wings, both the creatures are ready to chunk the flesh of other.
Hippogriff made the first attack by lunging towards it, caught the neck of quetzal and meantime the quetzal caught the left wing of hippogriff. Both were competing equally. Quetzal tried flying upwards and thought to tear the wing from the body of hippogriff. But, the hippogriff released its beak from the neck of quetzal, made some space between them and hit it with its horse foots, the quetzal received the crippling damage and dropping towards Royston.
Lord Royston by seeing that, took his scepter and gone to gave a fire attack. But, Demontus by seeing that shouted NO!!! It could be defeated only your scepter blade. But the message was late, the fire flames sparked out of Lord Royston's scepter and hit the quetzal at its neck, and soon the fire spread all over its body, it dropped down and closed his eyes.
Hippogriff!! quickly pick us, shouted Royston by carrying Ameer on his shoulders. The Hippogriff picked the trio and started its flight with a screech.
Demontus, why you shouted at the middle, what happened, asked Royston.
I thought, that would be impenetrable. Sometimes my master's family will create some creatures like these to protect them, they can be killed only by the scepters blade, but this was not that, it buried, relax lets head to next region, said Demontus.
But Demontus was right, the burning quetzal opened its eyes and took its flight towards the hippogriff with a high screech. Its entire body its burning, its neck was glittering more in fire, seemed like it has something inside its throat.
Now which way asked Demontus while flying above the Empyrean ocean. But Royston didn't respond, he felt the smell of smoke in his nostrils. Soon a terrifying roar at their back arrested them and their head shot back, it's the quetzal. The creature let out an ear-splitting roar and spewed the fire against them.
Aaaahhhhhhh!! Demontus made a blood-curdling scream, but Hippogriff rightly dodged to escape from the fire spew.
OMG!! you are right Demontus, but I have made it turn as a dragon, Said Royston.
Lord!! don't delay any further, hurl your scepter rightly at its throat, said Demontus.
Royston tried hurling his scepter but he can't make it because of the ride of Hippogriff, which takes them stunningly from the fire spewing of the dragon quetzal.
Demontus, can you hold Ameer, I will play a little game with this beasty and take him, said Royston.
But, quetzal spewed humongous fire towards them, Royston held the neck of hippogriff and made it fly down towards the empyrean ocean, by seeing that dragon quetzal moved his fire spew downwards. Royston turned the hippogriff all of a sudden and flew towards the quetzal, by seeing them dragon quetzal continued the fire spew without a gap, it missed hippogriff and hit the ocean and even lit it up. But hippogriff it's not afraid of the beast, it takes Royston and his friends towards it with more stunts and drifts. When Lord Royston neared it, hurled his scepter towards the throat of the beast. By seeing that, the beast planned to release enormous fire towards them, but it happened only when the scepter of Lord Royston rocketed towards into its throat. Dragon quetzal blasted like a volcano in the sky and even looked like a sun. But, the Hippogriff bravely flied into the blast and came out of the fire. Royston summoned his scepter back, and they headed to Sorgamia to save Manav.
This hippogriff is so brave, it took us out of the blasting fire and saved us. I name our pet as Fire Flyer, said Royston.
Fire Flyer!! That's nice, said Demontus.
They Entered Sorgamia and crossed the waterfalls,
Demontus, will there be any threats here? if yes, which creature are you expecting, asked Royston with a smile.
Lord!! you are brave, I have more confident on you that you will defeat any creature which shows up against you, saying Demontus.
Soon a giant iron ball rocketed towards the flying hippogriff, but with its stunt the iron ball merely missed it, but it scratched the beak of hippogriff and sent fire sparks on the air.
The iron ball rocketed from a giant Vathroo in the ground, he heights more than 12 feet and he would be possibly weighting more than 12,000kg. He spins a steel chain molded with a giant iron ball at its end. He isn't leaving the hippogriff to enter Sorgamia, blocking all its way.
Lord!! This would be our next destination, Manav would be somewhere near here. We didn't have adequate time, said Demontus.
Then look for Manav, I will take off this iron ball, said Lord Royston and made a thunder attack on it. The lighting silver thunder bolt busted out from the scepter of Lord Royston and hit the iron ball at the blazing speed and blasted like a silver bomb. The Iron ball dropped down to Vathroo, with that the hippogriff flew into Sorgamia and Demontus started looking for Manav.
Demontus found Manav lying at the banks of river Isis and said the hippogriff to drop them, when it sloped downwards, the iron ball hit the hippogriff with blistering speed and thrashed it to the ground.
