The Witch's Curse
The Cordovan Gloomy

"Your Majesty, you fit in there! Ahahahaha!!" Venn praised the Witch Maxi who began to occupy in the king's throne. The Royal Palace had been crippled and possessed by black magic. The servants who failed to escape, were killed on the spot, as a result of the attack of the Witch Maxi who neutralized the scent of humans.

"Venn, get our soldiers here" Witch Maxi ordered her loyal aide. Venn then rushed to fly to the top of the palace roof and performed a magic creature summoning ritual.

The golems, swamp crocodiles, as well as the remaining werewolves, as well as the birds of hell, seemed to be flocking towards the palace.

The Red Moon will last no more than two hours. Witch Maxi must optimize the absorption of mana moon before it is swallowed up by the sun. After this, there would be no reproduction of the power, so he would have to defend his army with the remaining magic energy.

"Your Majesty! There's guests!! Venn shouted from behind the roof of the palace.

"Who?"

"A group of humans!"

"Let them die?" grunts Witch Maxi while preparing to launch an attack.

"GOOD REGARDS HIS MAJESTY THE GREAT WITCH MAXIMILIAN!" a woman shouted a respectful greeting to Witch Maxi from the direction of the palace courtyard, after immobilizing some of the magic creatures that were guarding there. The Magician Maxi's lightning strike was not launched. He came out of the palace and met the group directly.

Venn, who was on the roof, flew downwards very quickly.

"Who are you?" venn asked with a probing face. The women were very beautiful and smelled like witches.

"We are your people, Your Majesty Witch Maxi," Madam Velocia said. Venn squinted his eyes, then ran towards them to sniff out the clothes he was wearing.

"You are like a witch. Are you survivors?"

"Yes, right. We became royal citizens and made a living like people" explained Madam Velocia.

"Yes, Your Majesty. You can count on us. Of course our help will be valuable," said one of the girls from The Sacred Flowers as they meandered to provide an amusement dance.

"alright. You're accepted. Venn's. Prepare a room for them. The monsters, back on guard in the palace grounds!"

"Okay, Your Honor,"

'Auuuuuuuu'u'

'Zzzzzzttt'

Dum.. Dum... Dum...

The magical beings follow the orders of Witch Maxi obediently. They immediately spread to each other's guard posts.

"Waaah.. You guys are so beautiful... Ha... Ha... Ha...," Venn went hand in hand with the girls, though looking uncomfortable, the girls had to pretend to be happy. They would soon rest in the palace room as guests.

"Say your identity!" order the holy knight who was guarding the barricade of the temple gate.

"We are the girls of The Sacred Flowers" Velocia said.

"You royal citizens? Why can't you guys step through the magic barricade?"

"Ka... Our.... We are the descendants of witches,"

"What's? The witch? The army! Formation!! There's witches!!" the knight then called his comrades to prepare to attack.

"No! Nah! We don't want to fight! We want to offer an alliance! Get the commander in chief, please!" madam said begging. Although he had the strength to attack the knights, however, he did not want to break the peace of the sacred temple. The purpose of coming is not to fight, but rather, to be allies.

"Ready!"

Not long after, Paladins appeared in the gate area of the sacred temple.

"Tell me your identity, witch,"

"I'm Madam Velocia. I am a thousand-year-old survivor witch. I can help you defeat the Witch Maxi," explained Madam Velocia reassuring Paladib who was drawing his sword.

"And you think we're gonna trust you?"

"I'm not dangerous. Here, you can take my pendant," said Madam Velocia still trying to become an ally of the kingdom. The magic pendant is the heart of the witch. Other than great magicians and great magicians like Witch Maxi, lower-class magicians can only use magic with the help of magic pendants.

The paladin accepted the pendant as safety insurance and surrender to submit to the rules of the sacred temple. They then opened a magic barricade that held back the entrance of The Sacred Flowers girls to the sacred temple.

"Close your eyes" Paladin orders his men from now on to meet the legendary prostitutes in the Kingdom of Cordovan every day.

"Baa... Alright.... Uh, Ready, Commander!" they answered in unison with trembling bodies as they were being passed by the girls of motley stature with very white skin and beautiful poking chests. The paladin ordered a knight to escort them to the prayer room. The knight was then tasked with preparing a change of clothes so that the prostitutes did not disturb the comfort of the other refugees.

"Explain, why do you want an alliance with us?" paladin asked Madam Velocia who was in front of him. After changing into clothes, Madam personally met Paladin for a chat.

"Paladin, we may be descendants of witches. I am a survivor witch, children are hybrid witches with humans. We don't want to be Maxi's Witch's men. We like to be human and do the job like human beings" he explained.

"What's the difference?"

"If we were to become the witches of Witch Maxi, we would have to act like monsters and have no freedom. We don't want to. We want to work as usual. I can help fight Witch Maxi,"

"alright. Rest first. Tomorrow we will strategize while waiting for the code from His Majesty the King," said Paladin then went to the knight's room.

"Master! The master! The King and the Commander are on their way here," one of the knights was in a hurry to find Paladin.

"really???"

"Yes, Master!"

"Call Duke Gelael,"

"Ready!"

The knight darted into the western pavilion to meet the Duke and his entourage who had just arrived last night. They arrived a bit later than expected, as they transported Princess Isyana's body. The horse-drawn carriage could not go too fast so that the princess's body would not fall on the road.

"The Duke... His Highness the Duke... His Majesty is heading this way," the knight finally reached the western pavilion and rushed straight to Duke Rhonda Gelael's room.

"really? Gosh darn. Alright. I'll get ready to go there,"

They rushed to the temple grounds to greet their King. The Holy Commander and His Majesty seemed to be speeding away from the direction of the forest, accompanied by three knights behind them.

"Dad!"

Drakes

Drakes

Drakes

Horses galloped towards the temple which was already filled with knights and corps leaders of the troops who were ready to fight whenever requested by His Majesty. Two foreigners who were not residents of Cordovan welcomed the arrival of King Markian. He just remembered, it was an aide to the crown prince, Shahrazan and a person he did not know.
