Chaos and Order - A Multiverse Fanfic

0095 Tower Battle, Old Ones, and Soul-Blood Oath - A True Servant!

A pair of enormous paper wings flapped on Meg's back as she landed.

The moment her feet touched the grass, the wings broke off, tiny bits of paper flying away with the wind like snow. Behind her, the two paper Megs also crumpled and fell.

Morning Mist stepped towards Kai, her eyes glistening like two silver pearls under the moonlight. The pride that she had shown before now vanished as she looked up at him. With every step, she trembled, an unknown shaking wreaking havoc inside her.

Kai felt drowning in the intense emotions oozing out her.

He had expected some kind of reaction from her, but not this, whatever it was. He had wanted to bury the fear of almighty in her heart by making her know he has a Glitch. There was only one thing he had wanted to say by showing her all his cards; either submit or die.

There was no other possibility after knowing this much about him.

Yet, this chain of events had strayed away from the expected path that he couldn't make any sense of it.

"Is... Is this true?" Meg whispered, looking at the Dementor-Kai. "Do you really have a Glitch?"

Then it hit him.

Out of nowhere, in the sea of emotions, a river of overwhelming happiness just hit him right in the face. The happiness was so potent, in fact, that even him, Dementor-Kai, felt he would fail to suck it out.

Let's see where it's going first, Kai thought, nodding to Meg.

"Finally, finally," she muttered, her knees hitting the earth with a thud. "Oh! If the High Priest knew you had a Glitch... Haha! He will regret his command now. Haha!"

Has she gone mad?! Kai wondered. He canceled the Dementor's transformation and landed on the ground. Selene hissed, slithering around his shoulders, and then burst into a mist, entering his body.

Kai looked back. Cersei came striding towards them with one look.

Cersei looked at him, her green eyes matching his hazels, and Kai knew she understood what he wanted her to do. This thing he lacked with Petyr.

"There is no shame in bending your knees for someone like my lord," Cersei said, smiling. "Lift your head with pride and look into his eyes. All those who serve him will know greatness, Margrethe. Serve him with your flesh and soul, and you will get back what was yours, and much more."

The corner of Kai's lips twitched upon hearing Cersei's speech. Well, she always presents me as some god, he thought, amusingly, but denied nothing. Cersei knew what she was doing, and he wouldn't steal her thunder if she wanted to show Meg her loyalty to him.

Meg shook her head but looked up at him, anyway. "Can you..." she began but cut her words in between. "May I have the honor of seeing your Glitch?"

"Presumptuous!" Cersei snapped. "You dare demand proof from him? Do you not know what awaits you? You should kiss his feet with that mouth of yours and not try to bite him with your blasphemous words."

"Cough!" Kai felt his cheeks going red.

Cersei was overacting, and if she wasn't, then things had gone even more serious regarding her. Kai observed the beauty standing on his left with her back straight as if all his power was hers to take pride in, and all his goals were ambitions borne of her dreams.

This wasn't the time to confront her, though.

"I dare not," Meg mumbled, staring at Kai's feet. "For hundreds of thousands of years, there has never been a Chaos' Contestant with Glitch. The mind sees, but the heart wonders..."
