Chapter 88 - 88. The Red Abyss

Tears swelled up in her eyes. Is she the caused of these people death.

" It turned into these?"

" You're finally catching up, and you know the best part. They won't leave until they've hard their fill." He said casually

" When would that be?"

" When they're no more living beings in the kingdom." Dylan looked into her eyes with seriousness this time around

" Dylan please, please save them." Kathy begged. She couldn't be the caused of deaths of an entire kingdom

" That's not my job. I mean the last thing I would do is save someone no less a kingdom". Dylan scoffed

" Please, I'll do anything I beg of you. I'll go back I'll never leave without telling you ever again I promise." She thought of anything possible to say

" You think I planned this? Now you're making it seem as if I'm threatening you --"

" No really I swr . I'm willing you're not forcing me please." Kathy pleaded as tears fell from her eyes

" Tyrants can't be killed or contained except by a very powerful magic force which the king has been using to contain this one. Powers don't work on them and they don't die." He explained moving past her

Blood drained from Kathy when she heard those words. Her knees wobble down. And she sat on the ground breathing hard and looking uneasy

" But little cat, they have a weakness." She looked up at him with hope, he turned and saw she was on the ground. He went to her and picked her up

" W.. what's their .. weakness." Her voice trembled

" Me."

" You can kill them?"

" No, as I said they don't die. I could kill them but that would be a hassle."

Dylan's eyes turned bloody red. He went down on one knee and dugged his left hand into the dirt . His powers flowing. A big circle was formed in the sky almost all round the kingdom.

Everyone who were outside saw the it wondering what was going on , because the tyrants were all staring at it.

The King had felt the large energy outside and went out to take a look. Some came out, some were too scared to even risk it.

Philip's eyes widened in shock. Only two people could do this, one was his second son Lucien and the other who had taught it to him was..... Dylan!

Dylan grabbed a handful of dirt in his hand, then he smiled darkly and blew it off. In an instant, it was sucking the tyrant like they were dust , they all flew into the red grimly hole above.

They didn't look to happy going in there by force but they couldn't do anything about it. Some tried to escape but it was no use as they could go through anything it was easy being sucked up into the hole.

Crying and screaming echoed loudly for some minutes till it was gone. Silence reigned like it came uninvited. And the hole disappeared like it was never there.

Everyone wondered what had happened, but they were weak with relief. People picked themselves up and started looking for dead bodies, the kingdom was though in shock they recovered and looked for survivals . Thankfully it didn't spread through out the kingdom just the resident near the palace mostly nobles.

The guards went about scouring everywhere making sure they were all ok. The althreazi wondered where the tyrant had come from not all of them knew the king had a tyrant pet.

Phillip sighed with relief. He ordered the investigation to continue, him and most of the Lord's went back to the throne room

He sat on his throne as he touched his head and winced at the little pain he felt there.

" Now you realize it was pretty reckless to keep a tyrant pet and you sent Damian to go get another one." Eric immediately threw daggers at him

Phillip raised his head and his expression grimed a little. What the hell was he thinking?

" Hmm, it was reckless I should have let it loose when my sons began to disappear." Eric looked at the king , he hadn't expected him to agree with him

" Go send a troupe to yelgra and tell him to return back. Without a tyrant, if he's caught one already he should release it immediately and set straight for the kingdom." Phillip passed his order. The head guard nodded and proceeded to carry out the order

" That was a close one my king." Lord Rusford.

" It was." Phillip agreed but his mind was railing because of the red abyss . Could it have been Dylan no way right?

" Has one of your sons returned your majesty?" Lord Benjamin asked

The entire room tensed, if the princes has returned that would be...not good. Some where happy, some weren't.

" Shouldn't we investigate my King?" Lord Ridrick politely asked

" We should. Do not leave anything out." He turned to Gideon and immediately he nodded his head and head out

" The red abyss can only be done by two people as we know it. Lucien and Dylan, it can't be the later but it can be Lucien. " Eric stated Phillip gave him a glare he knew saying Dylan's name was forbidden

" Of course it was Lucien. He's back." One of the Lord's said

Others grunted their agreement.

It couldn't have been Dylan of course. The last thing Dylan would ever choose was helping people

" But it was never said that my sons are the only ones capable of such abilities. It could have been a really powerful person. It could have been anybody--" Phillip tried to sway their thoughts away from his sons when he was interrupted by a servants. Who came running in.

" My Lords and my king please forgive me for the intrusion but the matter at hand is rather dire." The servant went on his knees bowing down

" How dare you --" one if the Lords wanted to cut him short but Phillip raised his hand and he kept quiet

" What is the matter?" Phillip saw how the servant was trembling. Did he see something? Or did he see Dylan. He couldn't send him away to hear him out privately not in front of his subjects

" The leader of Stonehollow seek your audience. He says it rather urgent. But...." The servants voice trembled

" Speak what is it." Phillip said

" T..the three Kings of the Great kingdoms are with him. " The servant said

Everyone looked at him in surprise. The three Kings. Phillip thought his ears were ringing. He made sure to keep peace all this time. He shut the kingdom from outsiders making sure they had no reason to visit whatsoever. What were they doing here? In over five centuries. Ever since they moved he made sure to cut all ties with them.

" Where are they?" He asked

" They're at the border my king." The servant replied

Phillip held his breath

" Let them pass, lead them here safely." He said
