"Where are you taking us?" Aditya and Adam have been following this zombie woman who is the servant of the 7th princess and has been staying in this world to look after the princess while she slept.
Aditya and Adam have been following her for a while now. Both of them have been following them for 2 hours now. In these 2 hours, the three of them have been moving very fast. Other than ice, both of them didn't say anything else on their path. Small and big mountains of snow and ice.
"Just follow me." The zombie woman replied in an emotionless tone. One thing Aditya has found out about this zombie woman is that this woman very rarely shows her emotions. Even if she shows her emotions, her face would quickly returns to being stoic. Her Stoic face makes it difficult for Aditya to see through her. Also, this zombie woman doesn't like to speak too much. She likes being quiet.
This zombie woman is the ideal maid that every noble would want to have. From the way she spoke, it was clear that from a very young age, she has been taught and trained to become a maid. This zombie woman has the attributes of a fighter despite being a servant. She is sharp with her words and very quick with her actions. She doesn't let her emotion affect her decisions or actions.
This woman can hide so well that even Adam who is Mid-4th-order cultivator couldn't sense her properly. She can almost become invisible. Assassins usually have this kind of power. As Assassins need to finish their target's life in just one move or two, they need to sneak or hide till they find the perfect time to end their target's life. But this woman is not an assassin but she has been trained like one.
Whenever Aditya or Adam asked her a question about the 7th Princess, she would gladly reply but when asked about her, she wouldn't say a thing.
After crossing a certain distance, Aditya and Adam both saw hundreds of islands floating in the sky. The sizes and shapes of each island were different from each other. After crossing 1000 meters distance, things became much clearer now. Aditya now noticed that all the hundreds of islands were slowly revolving around a giant floating island.
The size of The giant floating island was big as Azure city which is the capital of the Istarin Empire. The islands were floating approximately 3000 meters above the ground.
"Back then, Head Runemaster of the Great Starry Sky Empire had managed to invent special runes that can make these giant islands float. We became the only Empire in this world to have floating islands. His majesty was planning on creating large floating cities. This would have revolutionized The Great Starry Sky Empire. Unfortunately, the last time I visited the Empire, nothing like that had been built." Aditya once again sensed the sadness in her voice."
"Do you know what is Anti-Gravity Crystals?" Previously Aditya thought that these islands floated using Anti-Gravity Crystals.
"Without Anti-Gravity Crystals, these islands cannot float. The rune circle created by the Great runemaster works to equally distribute the power of Anti-Gravity Crystals throughout the island. The Array also has other functions of which I am not aware."
Soon the trio reached the main floating island. Looking up, Aditya can feel a weak presence of a living being. But the presence is so weak that if Aditya hadn't heard about the 7th princess's illness, he would have thought that this princess was on the verge of death.
"Let go." Two black pairs of bat wings came out of her back. The next second she flew towards the main island.
"Brat, give me a lift."
"Father, do you want me to carry you like a princess?" Aditya asked in a neutral tone without showing any emotion on his face.
"What nonsense are you saying? I will just wait for you here."
"Father, you can use this." Aditya handed Adam the Bracelet of Wind fairy. The Bracelet had a function that allows the user to fly using the wind elements.
Soon Adam and Aditya caught up to the maid. After flying for 10-something, they landed on the giant island. As soon as Aditya landed on the giant island, he found a giant Palace built in the center of the Island.
p
"One of the functions of the array keeps the temperature of this place normal and prevents the snow from covering any part of it." The zombie maid replied in an emotionless tone before walking past them. She began to walk towards the Palace.
'All these things make me wonder just how big and powerful the Great Starry Sky Empire was. The Man Eater thing is a beginner 6-order monster. The head runemaster of the Great Starry Sky Empire can make 6-star rune circles this means he was a 6-star runemaster or maybe even above. How the hell did an Empire this strong fall in the Beast continent?' Aditya wondered while following the zombie maid.
As Aditya and Adam approached the Palace, both of them noticed some complex runes drawn on the white marble floor. The ground around the Palace was built with white marble.
"This Palace took almost an entire year to make. This entire Palace was dedicated to Her Highness."
The zombie maid pushed open the gates and entered the Palace. "I will take you to meet Her Highness."
The interior of the Palace was empty and very silent. This deadly silence is scary in itself. At the center of the Palace, a huge room was built. Upon entering this room, Aditya's attention was drawn to the complex rune circles that were drawn around the white transparent coffin.
'Even though I have become a 4-star runemaster. I still can't understand a single word. This makes me feel as if I have never studied runes before.' It is almost as if an elementary student is forced to answer university-level math questions.
Aditya's eyes were slowly drawn to the sleeping beauty. As the coffin was transparent, Aditya was able to see the person who lay inside it.
She lay on a bed of thousands of white roses. Her lips and her skin were pale as if someone had sucked every drop of blood from her body. Aditya would have assumed that she is dead if she wasn't slow breathing.
'Her Aura is so weak.' Her Aura was like a small candle that is about to burn out. Her Aura made Aditya feel that even a strong wind breeze could end up killing her life.
Both of her arms rested on her stomach. She wore a beautiful white Hanfu. Her body was small and very skin. She looked very weak and malnourished almost as if she had never eaten anything. She had a slightly above-average chest and a small waist. She had white hair.
Her face was extremely charming. Although her body was voluptuous, her face was really cute. She can easily compete against all 7 goddesses. While her body was very sexually very attractive, her face still had a bit of baby fat making her look cuter.
She looked very fragile. As if even a gentle breeze can kill her. Looking at her, Aditya strangely had the desire to protect her.
"What is her name?" Aditya asked in a low tone while looking at the Princess.
"Her Highness's name is Lara Murphy. Please take care of her." The Maid once again bowed her head.
"I will. I promise. I will try my best to find a cure for her illness and heal her." The zombie maid straightened her back and nodded her head with a small smile.
"Her Highness will wake up once you open the coffin." Listening to her, Aditya began to step forwards to the transparent coffin while staring at the sleeping princess's face.
"Once Her Highness wakes up, the first thing that she will most likely try to do is to drink your blood as you have Divine Dragon blood. Your divine Dragon blood is full of vitality and energy. Please do not stop her. As this would be the very first time, Her Highness will be drinking blood. As a Vampire, she never consumed anyone's blood. Due to her illness, her powers and vampire instincts have remained dormant. One more thing....." Aditya nodded before slowly opening the coffin.
"Why did you stop?" Adam asked seeing the zombie maid stopping. However, she did not reply.
Meanwhile, just as Aditya opened the coffin, he was expecting the Princess to wake up instantly. But a few seconds passed nothing happened. Aditya looked at the princess's zombie maid; expecting some answer.
But when he turned his away head, a pair of crimson eyes opened. Aditya instantly felt the Aura of the Princess becoming a little stronger than before. Noticing this he looked at the princess who was also looking at him.
She did not speak. Her crimson eyes were slightly glowing in red. Her vampire fangs started to grow.
"Currently she is too weak. Please help her." At this moment, Adam felt that this maid was hiding something important.
