chapter 37

...Flower of Evil...

2 years past. No one heard of the princess Iseul. Stupid, naive people had no idea what was going on. The day she was banished, she was forgotten and no one heard anything about her.

Kingdom was peaceful from outside but who knows about the inside mysteries. Who died? Who lived? Who did wrong? Who was wronged? Who is righteous? Who is villainous? No one knew.

People were happy not knowing the dark clouds gathering in the sky. A thunderous storm is about to pass.

It was the day their beloved crown Prince Seokjin is going to accept the throne as the king had fallen ill. Everything is set to hold the royal coronation and banquet.

The security around the Palace was tight and no civilian had the chance to witness the heavenly banquet.

Guards were on high alert to protect the Palace. Infront of the gate,above the wall,inside the Palace wall,everywhere were armed soldiers.

Music was still going on inside the Palace. It was the beautiful night of the kingdom. Little did they know who had just arrived Infront of the palace gates. Their absolute destruction is already Infront of the gates.

BOOM!

The gate was exploded and the dead guards fell on the ground and no one had a proper complete body. They were all dismembered with the explosion.

This alerted the whole kingdom.

Within the burning fire and smoke,a figure appeared with a black cloak covering her head and body. Under the hood,they could see an icy pale skin like all the blood in that body had drained away. Her lips were tight bloody red as she had drink human blood.

"A demonic cultivator!! Catch her! Don't let her escape!!"

A bunch of soldiers came charging forward to kill her.

Her lips curved up into a sinister smile and,her palm raised up. Instantly, the soldiers who came charging forward were raised up in the mid air. They were surrounded by a black smoke and once they inhaled the black smoke,their eyes all turned black. She let them down.

"Heh", she smirked. "What's your name?", her voice was chilling and cold.

All the soldiers who fell victim to her spell,knelt infront of her.

"I have no name", they all said in unison.

"What is your purpose?", she asked again.

"Anything you wish"

All the soldiers who were watching this scene shivered in their steps. What did she do?!

The demonic cultivator smiled in satisfaction. "Then what are you waiting for? Rise and do your job"

And the chaos began.

She walked through the bloody fight without even giving a glance. No one survived who came infront of her. They either turned into her puppets or got killed instantly. Not even a complete copse could be found.

She saw the ceremonial ground in the far. She could see soldiers rushing their to protect the royalties. She smirked. Who can stop her?

She looked behind and her smirk widened. The Palace was in the fire she created. It was not a normal fire. No water cam extinguish it and it will kept burning as long as she wished. She looked at her side to see a pavilion near the lake. Her lips twitched as she was remembering something. She saw her past in that pavilion. She used to play there. Raising her palm,she burnt it using the ghost fire technique.

Suddenly, a cold metal was placed on her neck. The sword metal was very cold and sharp. Just by seeing its blade,she could say the owner of it.

"How dare you to step inside my home and destroy it! You crude demonic cultivator! Do you have a death wish! The nerve you have! Show yourself!"

Prince Jimin.

He could only see the side profile of the demonic cultivator.

She raised her hands and touched her hood before removing it from her head. Her face was pale like a cops and under her eyes took a blackish colour. Even her eye lids had the colour of black. Only her lips remained red. She turned to him with a smile.

Jimin's hands trembled as he took in the face he had been dying to see. But this reunion far way different than he imagined. Even though he recognised the face,he was still unable to accept anything.

"Hello brother"

Jimin took a step back. He opened his mouth but he couldn't utter anything.

"Happy to see me? No? Look,I brought a beautiful fire work. Do you like it brother?"

"Y –You —You did it?"

Her eyes shone and she smiled widely bringing chills to Jimin's spine. Was this his sister? No,he couldn't accept it.

He lowered his sword. "Iseul", he looked at her from top to bottom. "What happened to you? Y –You changed? Last time you met brother Hoseok,he said —"

Iseul's smile faded. "Do you think pretending could bring you anywhere? You all thought I died. Hah? Yes,your sister died. She died. You all killed her", she took a step forward. "She begged. Did anyone spare her? Brother,she cried. Did you hear her? She screamed. Did you see it? And then,poor Iseul died"

Jimin was tongue tied. He couldn't utter anything. His complexion was paler than ice.

"After snatching everything away from her,do you think you all can live a happily ever after? Do you think I will watch you all smile and enjoy?Nah. If I can't be happy,neither can you"

Jimin shook his head. "Iseul,this is not you. Look back Iseul. Turn back,please"

Iseul didn't understand the meaning of his words. Neither did she want to know.

"I already have come a long way. I will not be satisfied until you all die", she raised her palm and Jimin gasped when he was thrown in a wall. The impact was great and painful.

When he looked up,Iseul was already infront of him. He looked at her with so much emotions mixed in his eyes. Sorrow,guilt, sadness, regret,everything was there.

His sword on his hand suddenly ditched him and flew to Iseul's hand. He could see the density of demonic aura around her. She is a living dead person now. Her heart had already turned black. No turning back. No one can save her.

He didn't stand up and stayed still. "Will you be satisfied if you kill me?"

"Satisfy? I will never be able to satisfy myself even after killing you hundred of times. Your existence suffers me",she spat the heart stabbing painful words breaking him into pieces. The days they spent as kids flashed through his eyes. How they stole peaches together, how they got punished together, how they laughed and cried.

Too late now.

He nodded. "...fine. Go ahead"

Iseul had no emotion on her face. She stared at Jimin's sorrowful face. She felt nothing at all.

Jimin looked up and smiled bitterly. "I'm sorry"

Iseul didn't want to listen anymore. She raised the sword and slashed across his chest,killing him in one go.

Jimin's eyes never left hers. He fell down with open eyes. Blood was oozing out from his chest and mouth as he heaved his last breath there.

Iseul laughed seeing his death. She laughed and laughed but she wasn't satisfied. Her blood lust was satisfied at all. She wanted more.

She threw away her cloak revealing her black long gown. Her hair was in a half pony tail while the rest of the hair was elegantly on her shoulders and back. She dragged the bloody sword towards the ceremonial ground.

She made a bloody catastrophe. The whole place was in shambles. It was completely engulfed by the clouds of darkness. Outside the Palace,people were horrified hearing the screams of people begging for their lives. Slashing, tearing,destroying,the sounds were utterly disturbing that people covered their children's ears.

The walls were painted in blood. Iseul finally found her way to the ceremonial grounds and exploded the door.

The first person she saw was Taehyung and Namjoon who were guarding the door with his doors. Seeing her face,they were taken back as Jimin.

Her cold eyes went above them and saw Seokjin on the throne. It seems like King, Queen and concubines were taken to safe places.

Seokjin was clad in his red royal outfit with a sword in his hand. Beside him were the Prince Yoongi with his spiritual fan,Prince Hoseok and Prince Jungkook. The ceremonial ground was filled with so many armed soldiers. The beautifully decorated place is going to be a hell hole today.

They all were taken back seeing her.

Taehyung even lowered his sword but paused sensing the killing aura around her. When he saw the blood in her hands,he was dumbfounded.

"I –Iseul"

She looked at him with him empty eyes. The bastard who planned to banish her was him. Her eyes moved to Namjoon who was looking back at her with wide unbelievable eyes. Wasn't he the bastard who pushed her to her death?

She raised her palm and they all were thrown away with a strong force. She entered inside and started walking towards the throne.

"Protect the crown Prince!!"

Everyone except the Princes started charing forward to protect Seokjin.

She flickered her fingers and a roaring sound came from the sky. Everyone looked up in unison. It was a black cloud above them. It was filled with blood curling screams of demons and ghosts. With a speed of storm,it landed on the ceremonial ground and started engulfing the soldiers. Inside those black clouds were the demon's who fed on human flesh. They reacted according to Iseul's command and devoured the soldiers alive.

Taehyung was the first one to pick up the sword. He roared. "ISEUL!"

Iseul looked at him with blank eyes and blocked his sword attack easily with the sword she brought.

"Iseul,stop this!", Taehyung screamed in desperation.He didn't want to attack her,he just wanted to take her attention. His eyes were begging her. He didn't want to fight her.

Without a word,she attacked him with the sword. Taehyung took a step back as he blocked her attacks. She was fierced and attacked him nonstop. Taehyung didn't fight back. He only blocked her attacks. He saw how desperate she is to kill him.

Iseul was more than irritated when Taehyung didn't fight back.

Suddenly Namjoon screamed. "Iseul!"

Iseul immediately thought he was going  to attack her and turned around stabbing the person behind her. But Namjoon wasn't facing her. He was not in an attacking form. He was blocking a sword of a soldier by his own sword to protect her while Iseul's sword had pierced his back.

"BROTHER!"

Taehyung screamed.

Jungkook, Seokjin, Yoongi and Hoseok were shaken by the scene.

Taehyung fell on his knees,throwing away his sword and crawled next to Namjoon who fell down on the ground.
His eyes were shaking as he held the almost dead Namjoon. He was still alive but not for a long time. The sword had gone through his heart. Blood poured out from his mouth as he tried to speak.

Isel felt nothing. She coldly watched them.

Hoseok jumped down from the stage and ran forward towards Namjoon but he couldn't even reach when Iseul trapped him in a dark cloud. He screamed. "LET ME GO!ISEUL! STOP THIS!WE ARE YOUR BROTHERS"

Iseul walked towards Taehyung who was crying as he hugged his brother.

Her ears caught the sound of Yoongi's fan flipping. She immediately backed away and landed next to Hoseok who was struggling in the dark clouds.

Yoongi's frosty eyes glared at her. "Snap out of it,Iseul. This is not you"

Iseul's veins popped out from her face as she looked at Yoongi. The memories of that night was still fresh and painful. "Of course it's not me. Who did this to me", she growled as her eyes turned red. She wanted to kill and drink their blood.

But as much as she wanted to kill this person, she wanted him alive. He doesn't deserve a decent death. Iseul would gladly send him to the gates of hell and bring him back just to torture this person. He is not the only one who is going to live today. Her venomous eyes went to Jungkook who was standing next to Seokjin with a numb expression.
