In Love with the Demon Prince

Chapter 21: First Clue

{Few weeks later}

[Drake]
You found a clue?!

[Levi]
Yeah, we found it on one of the books, it seems like a map

[Amina]
We really had trouble finding it on the library

{Flashback}

[Levi]
Are you sure there's clues in the library? there's millions of books here!

[Amina]
Just shut up and help me 

While searching, a large book fell to the ground. Levi opened it and he is surprised to see a piece of paper with a map on it.

[Levi]
I found a map! could this be it?

[Amina]
It could be just a random map, check it carefully

[Levi]
It literally says "Scepter Piece location" on the back of the paper

[Amina]
Alright then-

{Somewhere in the same Flashback}

[---]
Your Highness, they found the next clue

[???]
That's great! Now what are you waiting for, follow them!

[---]
Right away

{End of Flashback}

[Drake]
Do we go now?

[Levi]
I guess so-

[Jess]
Hey Guys!

Jess, May, and Hatsune suddenly arrived. 

[Levi]
Ah! didn't see you guys there-

Levi hid the paper behind him.

[May]
What's that?

[Drake]
Oh Uhm it's nothing! oh hey Hatsune! are you doing good now?

[Hatsune]
Yeah... sorry I didn't went out for weeks, I was just afraid I'm gonna see my sister so I locked myself in my room

[Amina]
Oh it's fine!

[Jess]
You three seems like you're hiding something...

[Amina]
W-We'll be right back-

Amina, Levi and Drake suddenly disappeared in thin air.

[May]
Where did they go-

[Drake]
Do we tell them about it?

[Levi]
It's very risky, this is very important

[Amina]
Plus they might get in trouble

[Drake]
I trust them! They can keep this secret!

[Jess]
What secret?

Jess was behind them.

[Levi]
Will you please stop appearing out of nowhere?!

[Hatsune]
Drake, Amina, Levi, what are you hiding?

[Drake]
W-Were not hiding anything!

[May]
We're your friends... you can trust us whatever that is...

The three decided to tell them.

[Drake]
We're... going in a treasure hunt...

[Jess]
A Treasure hunt?! Why didn't you tell me sooner?!

[Amina]
It's not a simple treasure hunt, let me explain to all of you

...

{After Explanation}

[May]
We promise we won't tell anyone

[Hatsune]
yeah, we'll help you with this

[Jess]
Just leave it to us!

[Drake]
Thank you guys, I'm very grateful to have friends like you

[Levi]
We gotta go now, It will be dark soon

[Amina]
Yeah, we better do it fast

They went to the location, not knowing someone is following them.

They reached the location the map said, it was in the middle of the forest, there were big rock formed in a circle surrounding them.

[Hatsune]
Are you guys sure this is it?

[Levi]
That's what the map said

They suddenly heard a hissing sound nearby.

[Drake]
S-snake!

Drake held Levi's arm due to fear.

[Levi's POV]
Calm down Levi... Calm yourself!!!

[May]
it sounds like the snake is on pain...

May checked where the sound is coming, and she saw a snake with it's tail stuck on a branch of a tree.

May tried to remove the branch but the snake is trying to bite her.

[Hatsune]
be careful May! It's dangerous!

[Amina]
Let her be, Fairies like her cares about the nature more than anyone else, and the creatures that live in it

[May]
Don't worry, little snake, I won't hurt you, I just want to let you go

May managed to removed the branch, letting the snake free.

[May]
There! you're free now!

The snake glowed, until it turns into a female.

[Guardian]
Hello, and I am the guardian of the Land of Memories, and you passed the test

[May]
What test?

[Guardian]
What you're standing on is the entrance of the Land of Memories, to enter you must do a test, and you already passed!

[Drake]
Nice job May!

[Guardian]
But before you enter, take note, never judge a book by it's cover, Stay safe!

With a blink of an eye, they were inside another realm. The sky was green, and there are floating islands everywhere.

[Jess]
This place is huge!

[Amina]
We better start searching

[May]
Why rush? it's not like there's someone after it right now

[---]
You sure about that?

They all looked behind, and the demon siblings were surprised who it was.

[Levi & Amina]
Chandler?!
