From the shadows from the pillars, a figure walked out; it wasn’t Uragiru. It was a strange human creature walking out plainly in front of everyone’s eyes. There were two large wide wings, curved wolf-like legs with red scales shining like diamonds, and a tail slivering behind the strange creature. Its face resembled a human face with a few lizard scales on his cheeks, two long curved horns near the sides of his forehead, and there were strange fins behind its ears.
The strange creature was hearing linen clothes of dull blue and red coloring. The clothes covered most of upper half human torso and were tightly wrapped around his wings, but his legs remained in sight. He wore vambraces with small rubies on his lower arms and small pauldrons armor draping on his shoulder. There was a black, thin crown on his head with three long circlets thin like sticks.
The figure walked past the guard, past the princess who was going to the throne, sat instantly sat upon the throne. The strange creature wasn’t a ruler and it walked from the shadows of the secret door, walked in front of everybody, and sat upon the seat that should have been the princess’s. And the face looked oddly familiar to a person she knew.
A few people in the crowd began to whisper of the strange creature walking from out of nowhere and fearlessly sitting on the throne the royal family.
“Greetings, people of Shimabellia, I am Valverno, whom you people once called Vaeludar. The new ruler of the island and as well of Isla Maeli.”
It was the hybrid who had appeared sitting on the throne. Vaeludar, who was there in the flesh, sat upon the throne. He was the one who King Uragiru went to war against and he was sitting upon the throne of power.
“It’s you? Your alive?” said the princess.
“What kind of question is that, Princess Stephanie? Of course, I am and I always have been for the past seventeen years. What else would I have been doing during that time? And I am here to do some necessary things that should have been done years ago.”
“What do you mean? Where’s King Uragiru? That is the throne of my father. And by rights, it is mine and mine on—”
“King Uragiru, your father and my predecessor is no longer upon the living, and I am the one who killed the king!”
There were loud gasps of great shock; their king was dead and the murderer was sitting onto his throne, if the hybrid was treasuring it like a trophy. There was a near panic of what was now going to happen to them.
“When the king declared war upon and marched with an army of seventy thousand men at his command, it was a mistake on his part for him to come to me. Now he paid the ultimate price. Instead of joining me on my mission to kill Lusìvar, King Uragiru lost his reasonability as a king and went traitor. Therefore, I have stripped everything of the royal family and place myself as the new ruler of Shimabellia.”
“Are-are you kidding me? Are you insane?” shouted the princess.
“Your father was more insane than I ever will be. He loved his power more he loved his people and you, princess. Or have you not heard? You were adopted. Uragiru was never your father. So you are not eligible to take to the throne. So, as a quick solution, I killed the king and taking over the throne.”
The princess was just ready to kill the hybrid; upon hearing the words he was laying on her. “You murderer! Bodyguards! Kill that hybrid! He killed our beloved king!”
The guards that escorted the princess to the throne ran from the crowd and to the hybrid with spears pointing at him. Then the guards around the side walls charged around the crowd to the throne. They were aiming to kill the one who confessed of killing King Uragiru. As they changed with great speed, they couldn’t help but notice something coming from the ceiling.
A figure with white glowing armor jumped from the ceiling and landed in front of the hybrid. This lone figure was dressed in heavy white armor hearing a helmet of an eagle’s head and wore a long white cape.
As the soldiers came charging, the lone knight dashed to the soldiers coming from the crowd and waved a long spear at them. They were suddenly sent back to the crowd. The lone knight casted a wind magic from the spear that easily broke the soldiers’ spears and sent them flying to the ground.
Then the soldiers from the sides were caught in the mist of two other falling knights dressed in white glowing armor, each hearing the same armor but different helmets: one was a cheetah and the other was a tiger.
These two face the two opposite directions the princess’s bodyguards were coming from and did the same thing their first comrade did. They sent soldiers flying away with broken spears that snapped easily like a dead twig from a dead tree.
After the three knights did away with the bodyguards, they stood beside the hybrid sitting on the throne. One held out a long spear, one held two long kukri knives, and the other held a longsword.
“May I introduce three of the four legendary White Knights: Charity, Loyalty, and Charity. The sacred bodyguards eternally bound to serve me. They are granted the rights to the Bodyguard for the Throne, where they power exceeds beyond those of royal rankings.”
“You!? Just who do you think you are?” asked the princess.
“Did you not hear me the first round? I am Valverno, demigod from Pangaea and son of one of the Crystal Dragon god!” Valverno stood up
