There will be a long afterword tomorrow where I will ‘reveal’ everything about Sirius case along with the hints I’ve hidden, a sneak peek of sorts into the next volume- why it will be more thrilling than this one, a few words of my own, and finally- a Q/A in the comments.

Volume Finale tomorrow! Stay tuned! *** But his calmness did not make the marquess complacent, rather it added oil to the raging fire in his heart. His heavy punch connected, or at least it seemed to. But alas- it did not. Adrian- he disappeared. Something else disappeared- his right arm. “Aaaaaaaaah!” This time, his pained shriek resounded through the forest, shooing out the little amount of birds it had. “Aaaaaaah!” The shrill shriek from his wife and a low scream from his son…

Evening. The Clear Forest was a small forest situated between the centre of the eastern districts. The cleartrees, the most dominant species of the forest, lived up to its name. The red evening sunlight refracted through the transparent greenish leaves of the forest- illuminating the ground with a hue of red, green and brown. A dusty road trailed through the forest, under the lights ‘of’ the leaves and the shadows of trunks and branches. *Creak* *Clip-Clop* *Neigh!* Four strong horses tugged a…

Everyone took in a deep breath and exhaled, trying to calm themselves as much as possible. There were exceptions of course- like the Academy, the Lochtear house and the Ironcross family. They cared little of the victor of this selection. The most nervous were the Bradleys, the ‘traitorous’ Silva house and the red haired Crimsons. They had put too much stakes onto the Crown Prince. The Crimson family even used their highly talented daughter, who could have been the next Crimson Duchess, as a tool.…

Evelyn finally managed to close down his mouth, but she still could not stop her body from trembling. Fireworks were exploding in her mind. What? How? When? Tens of questions began to revolve around her consciousness. She somewhat composed herself as she turned left, towards him. Adrian was still looking down upon the highest echelons of the second strongest nation of the continent. A slight smile which conveyed ‘these puny creatures are quite interesting’ was plastered on his face. “Ha… how?”…

The blue eyed youth was none other than the winner of the first year tournament from their batch- Sirius Blue! And apparently, he was a member of the mysterious but undoubtedly powerful Lochtear house. Members of the Ironcross house were indifferent as always, but for the first time, their eyes betrayed something else- admiration. While the ones from the Crimson house had complicated expressions hidden in their eyes. They kept walking straight which did not surprise anyone in anyway. After all, the…

A man in his early fifties entered through the grand entrance. Alongside him walked a bewitching middle aged woman. Behind them was a burly young man, a proud student of the Academy’s third year Griffin Class- Dan Silva. Despite being one of the richest men in the kingdom, his arrival barely grabbed any sort of attention. Riches did not necessarily amount to power after all. Moreover, they were rich in ‘useless’ golds and silvers, not magic crystals that truly mattered. Yet, his arrival impacted…

A stout middle aged man with a menacing moustache entered the hall with strong and steady steps. Beside him, half a step behind, was a gorgeous young woman; unlike the man, her footsteps were lithe and soft. The duo steadily walked through the great chamber, leaving behind brief glowing footsteps. The chattering picked up after the Belfords placed themselves at the central main table. The arrival of the Rumins had little effect on them. But suddenly, it started to quiet down. Moments later- absolute…

The chattering atmosphere came to a stop. Footsteps echoed through the hall as a couple walked through the marble floors, lighting it up with each and every step. The male was handsome while his wife was gorgeous. Her beauty mark did justice to its name- adding to her beauty. Despite being a Marquess house, the Belfords’ impact on the audience was akin to that of the mighty Academy was for a single reason- ‘the trouble at the North’. For a mysterious reason, the Belford house assembled their army…

*** Thank you ‘GeoJersey’ for the magic castle! It is the first super gift I ever received and it will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you again for the massive support you have shown; it means a lot to me. Stay tuned! *** His authoritative voice echoed through the empty hall. But the response- was dead silence. A minute later, people clad in extravagant attires streamed in through the grand entrance. Ladies and gents looked up at the royals who were watching over the entire chamber,…
