SPELLBOUND Chapter 321 - Queen (Part II)

Chapter 321 - Queen (Part II)

Everyone who were watching her were simply awed. And the reason was not because of the magical light she had commanded. It was because of her. It was like the princess had truly become the queen now. The look in her eyes had changed ever so subtly, but it was obvious to those who have met her before. The sight of her sitting there so majestically, like the throne was made just for her gave s.h.i.+vers run down their spines. She was indeed a force to be reckoned with! Anyone who thinks that she is a pushover just because of her gentle demeanour and soft-spoken conduct would be in for a rude awakening. Her men were all filled with pride as they literally witnessed the birth of the new queen of the light faes.

They watched her closed her eyes for a long while. Their hearts and minds filled with antic.i.p.ation at what was going to happen next.

Then she rose gracefully from the throne.

When her eyes opened, everyone was shocked.. Her eyes… they were like two s.h.i.+ning suns!

The rays of light from her eyes spread out, touching every crystal in the hall. Then she spread out her arms wide – as though she was opening her arms to embrace a beloved and welcoming that person home. The comfort and gentle joy could be felt from the aura spilling forth from her. Her silvery hair was now undulating in waves behind her as if a breeze was pa.s.sing by.

The atmosphere became incredibly heavy but not the suffocating and deadly kind of heaviness that they usually feel around their prince. The aura surrounding the princess was the pleasant and warm kind, completely the opposite to their prince's darkness.

Everyone was unable to speak. What had happened within that few short moments that she had closed her eyes? When did their princess turn into someone so formidable like this? She was like a G.o.ddess now! And she seemed to be filled with so much power! Power that they were sure was not there the first time they came here. And to think that it was not even that long since then. In fact, it was only a few days since then!

Zanya on the other hand was not surprised in the least. She knew all along that the princess was powerful. All queens always had the strongest magical powers of all. It was simply innate within them. And since Evie was the prophesied one to be the saviour of the light faes and the queen who would bring them into a new era for their kind, how could she be lacking in this department? It would only make sense if her powers would actually overshadow all the previous rulers of the light faes.

Previously, when Zanya was teaching Evie magic spells, she had already realized there was really no need for her to learn. The princess was fast learner, but Zanya knew that only she could actually teach herself when it comes to her real magic and abilities. Zanya could not possibly teach the princess because the princess' magic and powers were something that only she possessed. And Zanya had already known that queens do not need any mentors. They could only rely on themselves. Because they were the only ones who could understand their own powers and control them.

Looking at her, Zanya could not help but tear up with overflowing emotions. She knew why her real power and abilities were coming forth now like an uncontrollable surge of waves. It was because the princess had finally embraced and accepted herself for who and what she truly was. During the first time when she was here, she was still filled with doubts and fear and many uncertainties. But now, none of those emotions could be seen in her eyes. In fact, her eyes had that crystal clear quality that held no imperfections whatsoever. They were so clear they resembled a mirror that if one were to look into her eyes, their own flaws would be drawn out and be reflected in hers. As though they were the kind of eyes that could stare and extract the deepest secrets within a person – even to the extent of stripping their soul bare.

To Zanya, she had now become the queen to the light faes. She had now accepted her fate willingly and was now more than prepared to do everything needed to achieve her goals.

Within just a few seconds, all the crystals started to light up as well, reflecting the amber lights coming from its source – Evie.

Then her voice came forth. "Awaken." That command came forth as it reverberated evocatively around the hall. Her voice was like a voice that came from the heavens – powerful and authoritative, yet still bearing a hint of gentleness and understanding within it. Those who that voice was directed to, heard it and could only s.h.i.+ver and fall prostrate to the ground in awe and wors.h.i.+p.

And with just that one word, the light coming from her strengthened in its brilliance and every crystal shattered into glittery sprinkles in unison. The dark crystalized dust flew around like black glitters were being carried by the breeze.

The view in the throne hall was so magical, so breath-taking that Evie's men could not respond for a long time but just stand there in utter wonder and admiration, their mouths hanging wide open.

Once the glittery black dust settled down and slowly vanished as they landed on the hall floor, the lights coming from Evie's body slowly receded as she drew her powers back into herself. The dark crystals were gone and numerous light faes, beautiful and ethereal creatures were now left standing where there once was a large dark crystal, their adoring and wors.h.i.+pful gazes all fixed on Evie who was seated again on the throne.

And suddenly, before Evie could say a word, Zanya took a step closer to the throne and her voice echoed. "Hail to our queen!" she saluted loudly, and she went down on one knee.

To Evie's surprise, all the light faes fell on their knees as well. And the words "Hail to our queen!" echoed once again. And this time, all of the light faes chorused out in unison, sending a little s.h.i.+ver running through Evie and her men's spines.
