Chapter 127 – Volume 4.2 Unknown Island 2

"Not giving me an easy death. Is that so?" Malaya said nonchalantly. "You should have kept me bound." She kicked a small plank of wood on her left side to the nearest native folks. Out of her sudden aggression, they began to attack her.

Malaya duck as she kicked the left side of the first person who was going to attack her, and that person immediately fell to the ground. Malaya glanced at the second person who suddenly grabbed her. She jerked her head forward then with one quick motion she hit the man with the back of her head.

The man stepped backward as he removed his mask. He held his bleeding  broken nose.

"I will not die without a fight."

"Stop." Oliver's cold voice resounded. "If you move against my will, this guy will be dead."

Malaya was frozen in her place as she glanced behind her. She almost forgot that she is not alone and  there was one person that was still with her. 

Oliver with a small knife on his right hand was pressed to Kayden's neck, it made a little wound that made a dropped of blood noticeable on his neck. Kayden who remained silent just looked disinterested despite the situation.

"For a duke's daughter, I am really impressed with how violent you are."

"Hah, and despite being defeated by me just a few days ago, you still are a snake for using people as hostages like that." Malaya steadied her body. "They are not toys, quit dealing with them as if they are toys."

"Toys you say? And a few days?" Oliver looked more interested. "It seems you are being confused. It's been a month now since our last fight."

"Month? Don't make me feel stupid here. " Malaya said. "Only four days or a week just passed."

"Ah, Carolle.."

Malaya stiffened at the mention of her past life name. But she didn't show any reaction towards Oliver and her face remained stoic.

"It seems you just woke up from a long dream and based on your current consciousness I think  you lost yourself from that dream." Oliver glanced towards the native people, and they all stepped back away from Malaya. "Our fight, a month has already passed since then." He looked seriously at Malaya's eyes. "And for instance, I didn't expect you to be here."

'A month? Am I gone for really that long? I thought it would only be three days.' Malaya tried to calm herself down. 'No, if you think about it, it could be possible. To the place where those two lived, time might have been distorted. But for a month, then everyone…'

Oliver saw the conflicted gaze of Malaya as she submerged herself in her thoughts. Oliver retracted his dagger away from Kayden.

"So you stayed in that place without knowing how much time had passed," Oliver said with a mild voice this time. He suddenly threw the dagger in Malaya's direction and it plunged to the ground that was just three inches away from Malaya's feet.

"If I have just my magic, I really want to destroy you right now and slice you into pieces until you are just nothing, " Oliver said, not hiding his hatred. "That damn dragon not only purified the dark magic that I accumulated for five years but also sealed my natural magic." He scratched the ring that was on his left thumb. " Do you have any idea how it felt, huh? That dragon not only removes my power but also my life."

"I'm completely powerless just like you now." Oliver just laughed off wryly. It was really very unusual for him to let out all his feelings like this. But seeing the person who destroyed all his plans a month ago.

After that fight in that strange space with Malaya, Oliver woke up on this unknown island a month ago. He tried to use his magic but it didn't work. That's when he noticed again the familiar red ring that was on his left thumb. Then he heard a voice inside his head.

"Child, this great one will only unseal thou magic back when thou realized the last words of thou mother to thee."

This left him in great dread and despair. "Realized my mother's last words?" He gritted his teeth. "You are just used as a tool to stop my plans. Don't act like you know everything about me."

He didn't receive any response from the Great Red Dragon spirit of fire after that.

Then amidst his inside turmoil, these indigenous people appeared and captured him. But with his extensive knowledge of medicine and herbs, he was able to help these people since, at that time, there was a pandemic that spread throughout the tribes. And later he found out that it was malaria. 

He was able to concoct medicine from the herbs and help to treat the people to heal faster… With his stay here, the tribes started to revere him. Until he was considered as one of the leaders as well. His knowledge and capability led him to achieve a higher position in this tribe. The language they spoke was strangely the same as the language spoken at Hacien Empire, that was why it was not hard for him to communicate with the people leaving from this place.

After the island pandemic was resolved, the next thing he did was to find out what island he was on. He already reached every nooked of the island, but it was completely covered by the sea. And he knows it will be not helpful if he asks people here since the tribe was not that advanced when it came to technology and didn't have any ships or boats to use for sailing.

These things left him in a predicament. He intended to continue his revenge. He swore in his life that he would not stop until he saw the emperor begging for his life. But it was all futile right now. He didn't know the place where he was and how he would get out of the island.

Then suddenly after almost a month now, the two people that destroyed all his plans appeared on the same island. This was his chance to destroy them too. Especially this girl in front of him. And with all the things he saw in that space about her, it made his blood boil.

Oliver returned his gaze to Malaya. But the latter just simply yawned and sat with her two legs crossed. One thing that infuriated him as she was also the way she acted. Like everything was still normal and nothing happened between them.

'No, this is just how she is.'

"Let's just forget everything and start over, alright?" Malaya nonchalantly spoke with a smile. "Your past really doesn't matter to me or for whatever reason you do every bit of your action."

"There are only two things that mattered to me when I fought you. First," Malaya raised her right index finger. "It was unfortunate that your plan would also hinder my plans for my life at hand. So I just needed to destroy it. And second," she raised her middle finger, "You hurt one of my friends. And if I didn't stop she could have died as well. Everything is just a matter of our own situations that clashed with each other."

Oliver didn't speak anything as he looked expressionlessly at Malaya.

"And the end result, you lost." Malaya pointed towards Oliver then pointed back at herself. "And I win."

Malaya then stretched her arms upwards. "Though I really hate it you already saw everything about me in that space right? I always do everything to crush those who hinder my plans and hurt those I care about."

"And if you want revenge," Malaya just grinned. "Just do what you want, after all revenge is only for those people who lost first. But remember this,"

Oliver's still not speaking furrowed his brows at Malaya's words.

"I will just need to crush you again until you weren't able to rise again." Malaya sighed as she lay on the grassy ground. 

"But oh well, since I don't have my weapons. I'm alone, my moon's life is in danger and with your new army here, well it would be impossible to win against you again anyway. So just hurry up and do your revenge fast. At least once in your lifetime, be proud that you defeated me." 

Malaya closed her eyes and felt the cold wind dampening her cheeks. 'I wonder why I'm always put in these dramatic situations. I have more important things to do and this is just too tiring. But to think I'm gone for a month.' A heavy feeling emerged inside her. 'I wonder what happened to my crew. And to think I'll die when I promised to go back to them. I'm really hopeless.'

'My moon?' Kayden's brows furrowed. That was the only thing that stuck in his mind with all Malaya's words of nonsense to them.

While Oliver, a completely defeated smile emerged on his lips. 'Revenge are only for those people who lost first.' Those words strangely rang inside his head and something stung inside his heart.

"You really know how to make someone want to pull out your tongue to not hear you speak again.." Oliver said.
