Phantasia: The Princess Knight

Chapter 369: A Brief Meeting

Alicia and Blake floated in the sky looking dead-on into the eyes of Alicia's brother's body that was now under the control of Bergath. "Bergath. Let's settle this once and for all!"

"Hahaha! Settle it? It's more like you are out of options. I do not know where you sent your capital but it truly amazes me how you were able to send everyone away. Too bad your lands have become scorched earth and soon will turn into a large crater." Bergath smiled from ear to ear. He already knew victory was at hand.

"I see... Well, it's too bad that you will not live long enough to enjoy it." Alicia waved her hand and disappeared from sight. Before Bergath knew what was going on Blake was already charging at him from the front, his whole body glowing rather brightly. 

"Hah! You think detonating yourself will do anything to me!?" Bergath let out a laugh as he gave a smug grin. He knew all he had to do was avoid the young lad in front of him and he could easily get away without any harm but what he didn't expect was a sudden voice filling his ears.

"Mmm Are you sure? What if it is a point black explosion?" Alicia wrapped her body around Bergath's back, her entire body that was holding him in place, began to glow. Blake did the same only from the front. Alicia gazed into Blake's eyes, her eyes showing a touch of sadness. She did not want to die but for everyone who she cared about and loved, she would rather die than to see them die at the hands of this maniac. 

"You! You're both insane! I will not go out like this! Not after finally being released from my seal!" Bergath Twisted and turned his body trying his best to throw the two who latched onto him off. But his actions were in vain. He was not able to move properly with how they were holding him.

Alica ignored the screams of Bergath and sent Blake a voice transmission. "Blake, in our next life I hope I meet you again, fall in love with you again, and am able to have a happy family with you. You always say that I am your one and only Well, the same goes for me too. You are my one and only Blake. The only man I could ever love." 

"And you are the only girl I could ever love." Blake answered her passionate confession with one of his own.

Alicia closed her eyes, her body growing as bright as the sun. It would only be a matter of seconds before she would explode. But as time ticked by the impending explosion didn't happen. She was confused as to what was going on. "What."

"Seems something interesting is happening here Little lady, young lad it's not good to throw your lives away." A vaguely familiar voice could be heard. Alicia slowly opened her eyes to see two figures floating in the air above them. One was a figure she recognized from the forbidden area in the cat sith domain. He was the powerful old man she had spoken to at that time, then the person next to him... 

For some reason the silhouette of the other person we blurred out. But she could tell it was a young girl with horns and a tail. "Is she the one?" Alicia heard a young girl's voice ask.

"She is But now is not the time." 

"I will look forward to our official meeting then "

"That you should. It seems fate has caused the two of you to cross paths." 

Alicia squinted her eyes trying to see the young figure in the air but the sun was right behind her making it hard to see. "Chun'er?" These words slipped out of her mouth as she remembered the young girl from the images she saw on the cultivation world.

"Now is not the time. I will deal with this old soul. You will need to deal with the aftermath." The old man said. He had already dispersed the spell in the sky upon his arrival. He had just happened to pass through due to the girl next to him begging to take a sneak peek. He never thought he would find Alicia about to detonate herself to kill the enemy. He could see why though, the soul inside the young man's body was indeed powerful.

"Hah you deal with me there is no way I will die so easi..." The old man cut Bergath's rambling short with a snap of his fingers turning Bergath into a mist of blood.

"Little lady, you need to grow stronger. Only then will you have the right to stand side by side with the Origin." The old man said before placing his hand on the little girl's shoulder next to him and disappearing into thin air. 

Alicia felt the object she was holding on to disappear and knew everything was over. She looked at Blake who was looking back at her and smiled widely before jumping into his arms hugging him tightly. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she began to cry. She was truly scared just now. She never wanted to die. It took everything she had to have such a resolve. Now that it was all over and she was able to stay alive, her emotions could no longer be contained. 

Blake gently hugged Alicia as he let her cry. This part of her never changed. She was strong upfront but when everything was over she was like a little child and would cry, but she would only do so in his arms.
