A brutal war erupted between the Anians and Demons. Anians, half human and half animal, from all over the world joined forces to end the conflict by defeating the Demon Queen. However, her powers proved too formidable for the Anians, so they impriso...
sigh*how long is he gonna take? I think it's been an hour or so, when it comes to his friend he is Unstoppable! (in talking). I need to stop him or suffer in silence T-T......
"All right, Sean enough!"
"I hope you got a better reason to stop me when I'm talking about something important!", he says crossing his arms.
Narrator: Please Punch him or I'LL!!
Tiago placed his hand over Sean's mouth, causing Sean to gasp and take shallow breaths. Sean trembled, wondering if there was a presence lurking behind him. Tiago noticed the fear in Sean's eyes and slowly removed his hand, his fingers brushing against Sean's soft lips. The two gazed intently at each other, their faces only inches apart to-!!!
"Is something watching us? Can you sense it? Is it behind me? Tell me!!", Sean whispered to him tons of questions
"Huh? Oh, no, there's nothing"
"Sorry?"
"I just wanted a moment...of peace", he says with a smirk.
Sean pushed him away, causing him to fall to the ground. He couldn't control his laughter while Sean glared at him with an annoyed expression.
"*laughs* It's pretty easy to scare you", he teased Sean.
"Are you done?"
As the sun started to set, Sean and Tiago realized that it was time to head home. They said their goodbyes and went their separate ways, feeling a little sad and lost in thought.
Narrator pov:
Sean's place of residence goes by the name of Penoriya, also referred to as the peacock's kingdom. Although its landmass is relatively small, its riches hold enough influence to either build or dismantle entire empires. Encircling the perimeters are walls of pure white magic, potent enough to incinerate any demonic or hostile entities making an attempt to scale them. Access is granted only to those possessing appropriate permits. Distinguished officials of the kingdom can issue Elena Seal scrolls, each with a unique design based on the originating empire. One can only ponder the outcome if they were to acquire the colossal crystal.

*THE NEXT DAY*
As the Ray of Sunlight slowly reaches the horizon, the deep indigo sky with millions of stars begins to fade, making way for the fiery colours of the dawn. Sean wakes up and finishes his morning chores before heading out to meet with Counselor Kairo. As he approaches the Castle (HQ), he remembers Kairo's warning about meeting someone today. Suddenly, Sean freezes as a dagger is held against his neck by an attacker who appears out of nowhere, leaving him unable to move. The attacker smiles menacingly.
As Sean felt the icy touch of a sharp dagger pressed against his neck, a hushed voice whispered a warning, "Do not lower your guard." Without a moment's hesitation, Sean swiftly disarmed his attacker and turned to face her. To his astonishment, he found himself staring into the captivating Nightshade eyes of a stunning Anian peahen. Her luscious coffee-coloured hair cascaded in elegant waves, accentuating her fair complexion and enhancing her beauty. She was dressed in a sleek black top that perfectly complemented her whisper-coloured pants, and her half-coat was adorned with a three-layered veil in a regal combination of Cadbury purple, rose, and white. Her long, cut-type skirt flowed gracefully around her, and her silver leather heels added to her effortless charm.
"Nice Sneaking, Riya, so your...um puberty reaching days over?"
"......"
"Awkward!"
"ahem! By the way, you look nice!"
"............"
"Say something!", his face turns red due to embarrassment.
"A boy who doesn't know how to talk to girls: The possibility of his surviving is low tsk* tsk*"
"Pfffft *giggles* You're still the same Sean I know. It's been decades since I last saw you, I really missed you, Sean"
"Me too, Riya"
"......"
"........"
"Well, if you excuse me, I gotta go", he tried to leave.
"Hey! You barely spoke to me, you are leaving! And where are you going in a hurry?", She was surprised.
"I headed to the Forest, No need to come I can go alone", he assured her.
"Nope, I'm coming with you"
"Why?"
"Because Councillor Kairo appointed me as your guardian and he knows you have been sneaking into the forest recently, what were you doing in that forest all this time, you know, you're too weak to handle yourself out there, aren't you?"
Sean's POV:
'It's painful to hear the word "weak," but she's correct about my current state. I can't inform her that I plan to visit an Anian tiger at the moment. She has a strong aversion to tigers for some reason, and if she discovers my intentions, she'll likely prevent me from ever seeing him again. I'm unable to challenge her since she's a formidable opponent. I must devise a plausible excuse quickly.
"Hey!! I'm talking here", she is waiting for an answer.
"I...I'm collecting information about rare herbs", says avoiding eye contact.
"That sounds interesting. What else specific informations are you looking to collect?", she asked.
"For research, learning the importance of herbs and it's one of the ways of becoming a healer, right?", his smile was believable. She stares at him for a moment with arms crossed, she can see his lie through.
"Do I look like an idiot to you?", she responded.
"Worth a shot", he rolled his eyes.
"he can't even able to lie; Correction: he won't survive!!!"
"Are you meeting someone?", Sean was startled for a second and thought 'Did puberty make her smart or something?'.
"I'll let you know when the time comes, okay?", he sighed, She smiled because one of her doubts had been cleared, now she just needed to find out who that was.
"So, we're about to finish our studies in school, Have you ever thought about joining the Academy?"
