(Author : A lot of you texted me asking about the update and so I am updating sooner; I wasn't planning on updating this faster because I don't have the next chapter written and....

Yep! So don't ask me when is the next chapter coming cause, not soon. 😭

I have deadlines, I have to go to somewhere for a few days so....... Yep, Imma yeet myself out now! Enjoy~)

While inspecting one of the villages near the dark kingdom's dense forest, a soldier from the dark world found dead bodies of a girl. There were more than a hundred bodies all forming a trail leading to her current being. The trail of ruthless deaths and gore led him to its end. Each body had to bear its own terrible painful death, some had their eyes popped out, some had a dagger short right in the mouth, some had multiple daggers shot as if one wasn't enough to kill her.

At the end, he found a girl standing with her hand on a tree, it looked like she was trying to catch her breath from running.

"Miss. are you okay?" he asked the girl not know who exactly she was.

"H-Help Me, please." she whispered weakly.

"How?" he asked and then stopped knowing its not the best time to enquire about how all this had happened.

"It's okay miss. Don't worry! Everything is going to be alright!" He pulled out a soft rug and walked towards her while talking to calm her down, when a dagger sliced her throat for the 157th time. Her life-less body fell to the ground with a thud sound in the all calm foggy forest.

His heart skipped beats to what he witnessed infront of his eyes and he screamed; he ran to Eunwoo and Mark in terror. His blood curdling screams were hitting 110 dB, capable of making anyone deaf!

Upon hearing this news of the dead body piles, the search troupe made their way to this mysterious cursed girl.

"Jennie??? Is that you???" Jason screamed and sprinted towards the girl when everyone reached the end of the trail and found Jennie.

"Jason! I was never so happy to see you!" the girl said.

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Namjoon sprinted there too.

Jason was about to hug her when Jennie asked him to back off.

"Back off, stupid! Do you want to die?" Jennie said moving away from him.

"Fine but that was like straight-up mean, I know we aren't best friends or anything-"

"Its not that Jason, you moron, can't you see all my dead bodies here?" Jennie said scratching her forehead using the dagger in her hand and shaking her head in disappointment knowing how Jason was.

"-but, but like, I was just concerned because I saw none of you guys after you all sneaked into the dark palace." Jason said frowning and still continued talking, explaining his point of view to not seem clingy.

"Sneaking into OUR palace." Eunwoo said grumpily, walking towards them, stressing on 'our' to clear that they snuck in and they were wrong for doing so. Probably looking forward to another heated argument.

Mark remained silent. Knowing how this side of Eunwoo could burn anything and anyone. All the guardians including Mark had messed around with Eunwoo a lot before but no one could even calmly talk to this side. This uncontrollable hatred that he'd never had as he was known for his giggly jolly nature, was terrifying.

"Chill this dud-" Before Jason could complete his sentence, Mark covered his mouth.

"Do you wanna get us all killed?" Mark whispered to him. Jason freed himself from him.

"I can't do anything if your dude is grumpy as heck." he whispered back.

"Remember the alliance! No fighting!" Mark whispered again.

"Yeah whatever- Why am I whispering?" Jason questioned to himself as Mark facepalmed.

"So, whoever the heck you are, and we definitely don't give a shit about, since you show alliance with these guys," Eunwoo stated looking at Jennie while pointing at Jason and Namjoon.

"just tell me what do you know about the princes?" he continued.

"You mere pathetic being, do not make me un-exist you from out of this world. You are talking to a future queen." Jennie said with her classic dagger eyes. Even though she was in a bad state, she could never lose her strong attitude, that is what made her stand out.

"Another wretched royal it is!" Eunwoo scoffed and rolled his eyes.

"How did you end up like this Jennie? Where are the others? Where is Jungkook??" Namjoon shot Jennie with a ton of questions.

"How would I-" before Jennie could complete her sentence, a dagger stabbed her throat, the stream of warm red blood was dripping down her neck, she took one long breath as a tear rolled down her eye. Jennie was now laying dead before everyone, in these split of seconds.

Jason screamed while everyone else including Eunwoo stood shocked at the sudden attack. Eunwoo clenched at the sudden pain in his chest but shrugged it off to concentrate on the current situation. The soldiers took their positions to look around for the source of the attack. Jason ran to Jennie and shook her cold dead body.

"Jennie, wake up! Don't die, please!! Don't die! Even though you weren't the best classmate but yeah, I mean, you weren't the best classmate." he pauses and wipes his tear. "Even though you were mean and rude, but you were...." he thinks "oh yeah, and you looked like an angry bird all the time, you still weren't that bad." he cried over her dead body.

"Nah, so he is definitely not giving the speech at my funeral, and Namjoon if you let him touch my corpse, I will freeze your heart." Jennie said.

Everyone looked up to where the voice was coming from and found Jennie at a distance.

Jason screamed once again as everyone gasped.

"Why are you all reacting like that? Did you not expect this after seeing all these dead bodies of mine?" she looked at them clearly disgusted at their stupidity. She walked towards Jason and her previous dead body. Jason got up and hugged her tight.

"You aren't dead!" he almost choked her.

"Jason!! Don't be around me or the next dagger will slit your throat and you won't even come back to life." she said and pushed him away.

"Alright now, answers!" Eunwoo said.

"How did you end up like this?" Namjoon questioned.

"I was cursed by the 'Three Cursed Witches'" she said playing with the dagger in her hand. Now getting used to dying again and again.

"What kind of sorcery is this!??! That's not possible, they are just a legend!!" Namjoon exclaimed.

"Apparently not!" Jennie said shrugging and leaning to the tree beside Jason.

"I remember our master at my Kingdom once telling about them, and how they weren't just a myth or a legend; they were ancient beings who rose for the utter chaos and if they have risen, there's some serious trouble!" Jason said sitting on the ground with his back leaning to the tree beside Jennie's multiple dead bodies.

"Evidently, we are in trouble." Eunwoo said.

"Where is Jimin, Jungkook, everyone who went into the castle?" Namjoon asked.

"What do mean? Why are you asking me that? How would I know? I thought everyone went back to the Light castle. Only Jimin and Y/n left along with me!" Jennie said confused.

"No one came back!" Jason said once again.

"What?? Ask this black suit imbecile!" Jennie said irritated, pointing at Eunwoo.

"We don't have your people." Mark said confused. Eunwoo took his steps close to Jennie.

"Mind your language, Miss." Eunwoo said clenching his jaw, his face being inches away from her. His dark eyes piercing through Jennie's soul.

"Mind your attitude, then" She responded looking him straight in the eye and not flinching or moving a bit.

"Eunwoo, bro, don't mess with Jennie, do anything, don't mess with her." Jason said. Mark joined his hands and gave Jason a pleading look.

"Guys! Stop!" Namjoon announced and looked at Jennie to continue. Eunwoo moved away rolling his eyes.

"Okay, so where are Y/n and Jimin?" she paused and took a deep breath to stop her tears from forming.

"Y/n is the moon princess." she said. Everyone gasped.

"No, she is not!" Eunwoo said.

"WoW, now this uncooked tobbokie is gonna argue with me? You think I am kidding, standing almost dead in front of you?" she said grinding her teeth.

"Stop arguing, when you look like an uncooked dumpling yourself! We saw her neck and she had no mark!" Eunwoo said.

"Ahh, that! Yeah, it was spell protected apparently. I confirmed with the Guardian Goblins and she is after all the moon princess." Jennie explained. Eunwoo nodded in response. "The good news is Y/n is safe in the Goblinorest with the Guardian Goblins and my old friend Soobin will make sure she is alright. She will be learning how to manage her powers there." she continued.

"That's a relief," Namjoon said before continuing "and where is Jimin?"

"Jimin sacrificed himself. S-She took him" Jennie mumbled.

"Sacrificed???!?? What?? Who?" Jason asked almost shouting.

"The Evil Woman. She was so strong and her powers worked in the goblinorest and she took Jimin away."

"That is impossible" Mark said.

"I don't know she was talking some nonsense. I have no clue who she was. She was just insanely powerful I could feel her aura! I know it. She had dark powers but a lot more than that, she held the bloody aura as she is connected somewhere like the blood-bloody...realm and the blood curdling aura... " Jennie explained as much as she could think of.

"'Ichor Realm'!"

Eunwoo whispered clear; clear enough for everyone to hear, and looked at Jennie, deep into her eyes.

She flinched hearing 'Ichor Realm'. There was dead silence in the dark foggy forest as everyone shivered.

Suddenly another dagger was shot at Jennie. The dagger penetrated into her stomach. She fell to the ground and Jason held her. There was blood all over Jason's hands as he tried to stop her blood from flowing off her body. She was gasping for air and her eyes watered in pain. Everyone looked at her shocked, even though they knew something like that was going to happen anytime soon. Unexpectedly seeing her ruthlessly die in multiple ways, gave everyone the chills.

"Jennie? Jennie!!!" Jason moved her. Seeing her in so much pain and die in his arm, Jason shivered. His hands were covered in her blood. He looked at his bloody red hands as tears rolled down his face.

"Jennie please, please don't die. I know I wasn't the best classmate. I shouldn't have been a jerk to you guys. I am so sorry. Please we all need you! The royal family and us as the new generations of royals and protectors need you." he paused "We need you as our grumpy-kind friend, Jennie!" Jason sobbed, trying to move her cold dead corpse, still hoping to see some life in it.

"Okay, now that is a better speech, you may be allowed to give a speech at my funeral; but DONT TOUCH MY CORPSE." Everyone looked at the owner of the voice and Jennie walked towards them from a distance.

Jason hugged her once again. "Can you stop doing that?" Jason said.

"No shit! If I could, I'd be on my way to kill that evil red old b****" Jennie cussed. "Now get off me!" Jennie said not pushing him away this time. Jason broke the hug and wiped his red nose.

"Is there any more information that you could give us?" Eunwoo asked. Jennie looked at them for a moment.

"There is actually." she paused and continued. "I wasn't sure if I wanted to share this but I don't think keeping any secrets is gonna help. It might just cause misunderstandings in the future. I understand that you guys all together, without fighting, indicate there is an alliance between both empires and I will tell this out but I request this to be kept confidential!" Jennie said. Eunwoo bowed a little and nodded, being understanding. He actioned everyone to leave.

(Author: Without fighting *fake coughs* Yes. Yeah. Exactly! Undoubtedly! Faultlessly! Honestly! Perfectly! *fake cough* Accurately!!! Precisely! Definitely!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Namjoon: And I thought we made a deal that you DON'T INVADE IN MY SCENES. 🙄🙄🙄

Namjoon: Yahh!!! You stupid brat!!!! You don't have a boyfriend doesn't mean you ruin other's love life!!! Yah!!! 🤬🤬🤬 )

All the soldiers, both from the light and the dark empires went towards the castle where they were residing. Jennie looked at everyone seriously. The environment was very serious because it seemed like she was going to tell out a very important details. The atmosphere made it spine chilling and the silence was finally broken revealing the biggest hidden truth of a well played fate, that was not destined in his favour any longer.

"Jimin is not a prince." Jennie said.

"What? What is he then? A peasant?" Jason said with a confused questioning look, genuinely not understanding how it was possible to be the royal blood but not a prince? Jennie gave him her infamous dagger eyes which made him bow a little as an apology.

"He is the son of Cetona." she whispered. Everyone gasped.

"SO YOU ARE TELLING ME, HE IS BASICALLY A GREEK GOD OF ALL THE OCEANS AND WATERS!!?"
