Chapter 67 – Volume 2.19 Escape?

"Iris, I've been meaning to ask?" 

"If I like you? Of course not, duh."

Malaya rolled her eyes. "Can you stop talking nonsense? that's not what I'm trying to talk about, okay?  Why does that guy love to appear out of nowhere and do surprising things?"

"Who knows?" Iris shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know him."

"Come on, he is your villain." Malaya frowned.

"My villain? Oh yeah right, I wrote him." Iris said. "And also your character. But does anything follow the script anymore? So don't ask any more stupid questions like that."

"It's not that I'm the first one who breaks that. You're the one who freed him first which already goes out of the plot."

"Huh?" Iris raised her left brow and confusion was written all over her face. "What are you saying?"

"You're the one who freed him from the dungeon."

"No. I'm not." Iris said quickly with a deadpan expression. 

"Then who…" Before Malaya could finish her words, multiple explosions resounded from the ongoing fight that was happening in front of them, causing their senses to pay more attention to everything happening around us so no one could be hurt.

"How dare you hurt my father!" Callan said. A fit of anger thrummed through his veins then he released more of his air blasts to Kayden.

Callan unleashed a powerful whirlwind on Kayden, obliterating the area. Malaya and the others just covered their heads to protect themselves. As the onslaught tension increased, Malaya began to lose footing, causing Rein to rush ahead to cover her.

" Are you okay?" Rein glanced at Malaya, his eyes were tight and worried.

  On the other hand, Kayden's face remained unmoved as he swiftly blocked and evade every bit of Callan's attack. As if those strong attacks didn't even matter to him.

"All of you, listen to me. Let's get out of here first," Malaya said calmly yet the authority on her voice was dominant. "That's the plan and not to watch those guys fight."

"I'm just going to say that."

"But you didn't," Malaya said as she walked past Iris. "Let's go, Rein." 

"I'll lead the way." Rein said as he walked ahead. Malaya simply moved her head as a response and followed Rein.

Though the rain was still pouring hard, they didn't care anymore. Malaya had only one thing in mind and that was to get out of here as fast as possible before any of those guys finished their fight. 

She could certainly feel that whoever wins the match, she was certain that they could get more inflicted in a greater mess than they were already in.

As they sprinted towards the alleys of the soaked and quiet city night of Aravan, Rein was the first one to notice when a dark shadow loomed over him. 

*Boogsh!*

He immediately leaped up as the sharp shadow created a huge crater in the place they were before. If he was a second late noticing, both he and Dorris would surely be pulverized now.

At the same time, Iris pushed Malaya out of the shadow's sharp claws. 

"Arghh!" Malaya winced when she hit the hard concrete wall. Iris, on the other hand, managed to evade the shadow but with one step, she failed to maintain her balance and slipped on the puddle of water. 

"Ouch!" She winced when her butt hit the hard drenched road.

*Boogsh!* Both of them glanced at the place where there was now a huge dent on it.

"Milady!" Rein landed beside Malaya.

"I'm alright." Malaya steadied herself once again, 'Why do I feel like there was an extra intended force with that push.' she thought.

"Lady Iris, are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Iris said as she already stood up from her nasty fall. 'Is that my karma or what?'

Rein became more alert when he felt an ominous presence in front of them. "Milady, Lady Iris, please step back." 

{"My son did a sinful act."} That familiar low voice echoed through their ears. {"And so is my daughter. As their father, I need to be the one to teach them a lesson. I will never pass it that easily. They need to learn from their mistakes."}

In front of them was no other than Charrio. But his appearance had completely changed now. Malaya could feel several chills running in her nerves. The man… No, that couldn't be called man anymore.

Charrio was riding a large dark horse. His entire visage became black wearing black plate armor. But that was not made Malaya a bit frightened, it was the fact that his head was severed. He was holding his head towards in his right hand and a red soulless eyes bore unto them.

'A Dullahan?' Malaya gripped her Trinity tightly.

{"I would not make these things harder for anyone,"} Charrio spoke once again.

"My Savior is truly a gentleman," Iris murmured beside Malaya as she stared at Rein's lean and chiseled back with dreamy eyes.

Malaya's attention turned reverted to Iris.

"You should have written more characters like him. And not those ml's with attitude problems." Malaya remarked, looking at her with a frown.

{"Give my daughter back to me."}

"Well, that would be too boring." Iris rolled her eyes. "Most readers want male leads who have problems then fall in love with the female lead. And they start changing and blah blah blah."

"Blah? Blah? Blah?"

"It meant what it is, stupid." 

{"Give my daughter back to me so all of you could leave here alive."}

"What does it mean, I don't know since I'm stupid," Malaya said with a grin. "Explain to me and don't be lazy."

"Hah." Iris sneakered. "Is that a joke, because Rein was laughing so hard right now."

'These two…' Rein flinched.  "I know both of you are getting along well with each other…" his words were cut off straight away.

"We're not!"

"Seahorse!!!" 

There was a moment of silence…

"Seahorse?" Iris looked at Malaya confused. "What's with that?"

"First as much as possible I'm trying to avoid cliche answers, and second, the horse!!!" All of the three of them looked to where Malaya was pointing.

{"I decided your punishments."} Charrio who was being ignored was now prancing towards them at a bulleted speed. {"All of you will die."}

Without a moment of thought, Rein, Malaya, and Iris started to turn around and run as fast as they could!

With the huge horse Charrio rode, they would not be able to simply evade him since he was covering the entire narrow alley. 

"He's angry!" Iris said.

"Yeah. Pretty mad!" Malaya nodded her head. 

"There's a corner turn!" Malaya pointed.

"No, let's not go there." 

"My author's instinct for cliches is telling me it could be a dead end." 

"But at this rate, he would catch up to us." Malaya retorted Iris' words. "And could you fight him?"

"No," Iris said with a frown. With Malaya's words, she remembered how she got trashed by her fight with Charrio. "But it would be a dead-end for sure."

"No, it would not."

A few moments later…

{"There is nothing for all of you to run now,"} Charrio said as he inched closer to them. 

"See, what did I tell you?" Iris murmured to Malaya. "It's a dead end. Now we're all dead as well."

"Re-rein, Is that you?" All of them stopped when they heard a very familiar voice from Dorris'. Her voice was soft and weak maybe because of what happened to her when Charrio choked her. 

Even Charrio, who was just a meter away from them, halted.

"Dorris, you're awake!" Malaya went to Dorris' side right away to check her condition.. "Thank Goodness," a sound of relief crossed Malaya's voice as she touched Dorris' hands.
