"There must be a reason why you did not send us to the dungeons." Lycan stated as he knew that they would have either been executed or sent directly in prison.
"How did you guys got caught anyway? With you three, I doubt that you could get caught." Solstice asked.
"A mage that could use sand caught us. We might have been out of vision, but we still walk on the ground though." Creepysoo stated.
"That would be my wife. She is the greatest mage in this kingdom." King Amon stated.
"Good choice." Lycan stated.
"Thanks." King Amon replied.
"I believe that you need to say what you want then to do my dear. We even made sure that their presence is not known to all of the people in the castle." A female voice sounded as the hourglass on the table suddenly rattled and the sand started to come out.
"My lovely wife, Queen Esett. You are finally here." King Amon called.
The sand from the hourglass suddenly came out while a small sand tornado revealed a female figure. The female that manifested from the sand tornado has black hair and blue eyes while having tanned skin. What made her most alluring is the way she carried herself as if she is filled with grace and majesty.
"Tell them what we need them to do my dear. I am already missing my little boy." Queen Esett stated as she flashed a look of concern.
"We do need the food but what we need now is the safe rescue of our child. The angel took our children and hid him. He said that he would return him when the war is finished which is why we hasten the war preparation, but he suddenly went elsewhere." King Amon stated.
"I have searched everywhere in the kingdom, but my child could not be found. I even used my magic to tap into the very soil of the kingdom, but my child could not be found. He must have been taken somewhere high or a location farther away from the kingdom. I beg you to find him while the angel is away." Queen Esett stated.
"No need to worry about the angel." Lycan stated.
"Why? Is he caught in battle or has been trapped?" King Amon asked as he views either of the two a good sign.
"He has died. All three angels that came to persuade your three-kingdom alliance was killed." Lycan stated.
"It is true. I even helped. Who knew that angels are very weak against darkness attribute magic curses?!" Creepysoo stated as he remembered that his enhancement on the arrow was really powerful darkness attribute magic.
King Amon and Queen Esett then looked at each other with relief but there is also a feeling or worry on their faces. They knew that their son is still in danger because they have yet to find him. In fact, the Shade that they captured along with Solstice was sent on a mission to find their son in exchange for Solstice' release. They also told this to the group which is why they now know why Solstice is still here.
"You could have just said that you need help finding your son. Do you have some of his blood? We also have someone with powerful sense of smell here right now." Solstice stated as she looked at Lycan.
"Why do you need the blood of my son?" King Amon asked as that is a strange thing to ask.
"She is a vampire. A Child of Night. She can follow the scent of a specific blood as long as she has tasted it. You could say that it is a sense of smelling the blood that they have ingested." Lycan explained.
When King Amon and Queen Esett learned that the woman in heavy golden armor is actually a vampire, they are surprised as they are often creatures spoken in old stories. They thought that the vampires have erased from the world as they were hunted for being blood sucking monsters.
"My king! With the angel dead, I fear that our son is in great danger. We might not be able to move because the angels might still have eyes everywhere, but the Shades will be able to safely search for our son. We already sent the other one, having them search with their special abilities would be great help." Queen Esett stated as she desperately needed to see her son but there are many followers of the Church of Light in this kingdom due to King Amon being related to the former empire.
"Well, I will set Solstice and Lycan free with the Shade that you brought. The Prince of the Undead will be at my company while you send back my son." King Amon stated as he waved his hands.
The rings of solar light that bound Solstice, Lycan and Awraka vanished, and they could once again use their abilities. Solstice even stretched as she could finally move her hands around. She then receded her helmet and the king and queen are shocked upon seeing her beautiful face.
She even beat Queen Esett when it came to beauty. King Amon even unconsciously gave a thumbs up to Lycan as respect. Solstice is not bothered by this though because that was also the reaction of his friends in the real world.
"Do you have your child's blood?" Solstice asked.
"We do not have it." King Amon and Queen Esett stated.
"If you do not have then a drop of blood from the king should suffice as he is his son. The blood should more or less smell the same. Although there is some negativity in using that method." Solstice stated.
"What is the negativity? Is there a chance to fail?" King Amon asked.
"Not really. You see, all of those that share your blood will be sensed. Meaning…if you have something like a secret child then she would also sense that, and it might divert her smell." Lycan stated which made King Amon have a chill on his spine.
