Witch's Daughter And The Devil's Son Chapter 772: Arrived At Agartha

Chapter 772: Arrived At Agartha

The group of three was finally approaching their last stop: Agartha. They teleported to the boundary of Agartha, where the protective s.h.i.+eld of the kingdom began.

Before they entered the s.h.i.+eld and crossed the invisible boundary of Agartha, Evanthe explained to Drayce, "Dray, you may not be treated the same way when you visit other human royalties. Your experience with Draven might be different. You both are beasts, so even if he welcomes you, his beast instincts might warn you to stay away since he has a mate.

"You might not be so welcomed in his residence, or you may not even get to step inside the main building where he stays in the palace. Just because you're my son, you're allowed to step inside the palace boundary at least. You understand this, right? As you are a beast as well."frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Yes, Mother."

"Why is it like this?" Seren asked.

"A dragon's home is like his nest, where only his mate and young children can stay. No other beasts are allowed to enter. Dragons are highly territorial. It's not just them; other divine beasts like the divine eagle and foxes are the same. Since you and Ember aren't beast-humans, neither of you would bother with keeping other females away. The issue lies with these two male beasts.

Understood?"

"Yes, Mother."

"Yorian must have already made arrangements for you two to stay in a place inside the palace boundary but away from the main residence of the King," Evanthe added. "Draven is humanized, so he won't make things too difficult regarding both of your presences."

Seren awkwardly cleared her throat and asked, "Is he scary? I mean, in the books, they say the Black Dragon is ferocious?"

Evanthe chuckled. "Don't believe the books entirely. He's ferocious when he fights enemies, but with his own people, he's like a coconut."

Seren let out a light laugh at how a most formidable creature she had ever read about was called like this. "Coconut?"

"Like hard on the outside, but too soft on the inside," Evanthe explained.

"Alright, so I won't be scared of this coconut king," Seren replied with a smile.

Drayce protectively wrapped his arm around her, pulling her closer against his body. "When I'm with you, you don't have to be scared of anyone, whether it's a black dragon or anyone else." His tone was both demanding and possessive.

Evanthe sighed. "See, his beast instincts are already kicking in when we haven't even entered the territory of another beast yet."

Seren observed his face and eyes. He had been quiet since the moment they arrived, and his gaze clearly showed his displeasure at entering the territory of another dragon.

"You alright, Dray?" she asked, her gaze worried.

He hummed. "I'll get used to it soon."

"You're not like this when Prince Arlan is with you. He's a dragon as well."

"I'm familiar with Arlan, and he's like a brother to me and my dragon. He's more like family, a sibling, while this new dragon is entirely a stranger," he explained. "But once I spend more time here, I'll get used to it."

"Okay."

"Let's enter the territory now," Evanthe spoke, only to hear Seren ask, "Where?" In front of them, there was nothing but dense trees and huge boulders of rock, as if there was no way ahead.

Evanthe smiled and used her magic, causing the illusion in front of them to disappear, revealing a door to an entirely new world, like something out of a fairy tale.

"Here," Evanthe replied.

Seeing the view in front of them had completely changed, Seren gasped in delight. "Magical."

"It is," Evanthe replied, leading the way.

With each step forward, Seren's eyes widened in amazement. "I'm dreaming, right?" she asked as she stood at the edge of the cliff.

Drayce was equally surprised by the breathtaking beauty before them, and the beast within him seemed to revel in being in this land of supernaturals, where everything radiated pure spiritual energy.

From the cliff, they could see a vast, magical land br.i.m.m.i.n.g with life and color—the major part of the entire kingdom. The landscape was a living scenery of lush greenery, s.h.i.+mmering under the golden glow of the sun. In the distance, majestic mountains rose, their peaks gently caressed by delicate, wispy clouds.

Waterfalls cascaded gracefully from the heights, their clear waters feeding into winding rivers that sparkled like liquid crystal.

Fields of vibrant flowers stretched out in every direction, a living scenery of colorful blooms swaying in the gentle breeze. b.u.t.terflies, their wings a mesh of colors, danced through the air, adding to the enchantment. Birds sang sweet, harmonious melodies, filling the air with their joyous chorus.

Small, wild animals darted here and there, their playful antics adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. It was as if all the colors and emotions of the world had come together in this one magical place, creating a perfect symphony of beauty and wonder.

As a deity of nature, Seren was overwhelmed by the beauty of the natural world before her. Her heart swelled with delight, and she felt as if she belonged nowhere but here, surrounded by the splendor of nature.

"Seems like your wife has just found her most favorite place," Evanthe commented as she observed Seren. "A deity of nature might not want to leave this place."

"She goes wherever I go," Drayce spoke, his tone revealing his displeasure that his mate was enjoying the territory ruled by another dragon. "With her powers, she can turn Megaris into a place like this as well. Once we rid her of the h.e.l.lfire, she'll do it."

"Jealous much?" Evanthe shook her head. "These dragons are so annoyingly possessive, and one of them happens to be my own son."

"Was my real father the same?" Drayce asked. "He was a dragon as well."

At these words, Evanthe fell silent and looked at Drayce. He had never asked about Him before—why now? Was he curious about his father and wis.h.i.+ng to see him? What would she do if that's what he wanted?

Just then, the wind around them stirred, and a familiar divine eagle with majestic golden wings landed at the cliff. His golden hair moved gently in the soft breeze, and as his wings folded behind his back and disappeared, his gaze took in the three of them, lingering on Seren for a moment longer before s.h.i.+fting back to Evanthe.

It's been months since he had seen Seren, and only he knew how he missed her. But he knew it better to bury everything in his heart, than letting his feelings exposed to anyone. He made a mental note on keeping his distance with her and not look at her unless it's necessary, worried that his words might help him lie, but his gaze might expose his true feelings.

"Lord Aureus?" Seren said, glad to see her protector once more. She had always been grateful to him for protecting her from being abducted by Zaria; otherwise, she wouldn't be standing here today.

Aureus bowed to them. "Mother, King Drayce, Queen Seren."

Drayce offered a polite nod, while Evanthe spoke. "He is your brother, and you are older than him. You can call Drayce by his name."

Aureus looked at Drayce, who gave him a light nod, granting him permission.

"All the arrangements had made for you stay," Aureus informed, "Let's head there," With that he opened his beautiful wings, making Seren gasp to see such a beautiful view of those s.h.i.+ny golden wings which she had witnessed even before."

Drayce looked at her, making her close her mouth and lower her gaze. She never felt it from Drayce, except for that one time when he was jealous of Erebus recently, but after coming here, she could feel that jealously inside him had intensified to another level.

Evanthe was right. His beast instincts were kicking in when he felt the presence of other beasts.S he decided to be careful with her behaviour, not to make him feel jealous anymore.

The three of them disappeared from the place, while the divine eagle flew at the speed of lighting, to match the pace of their teleportation.
