Chapter 806: EPILOGUE 2 (VOLUME 4)

Alexio – Training PART 1

We had finally seen Queen Trinity again after coming into this world. She was stuck in bed, barely able to move. I guess that was more proof that I needed to know that she had left her body in this world and had been stuck in the underworld with us. She wasn’t dead. She wasn’t just a spirit. She was alive, and she belonged here in this world.

Rudy and I didn’t belong here. However, we didn’t belong in the underworld anymore. Not really anyway. We had changed. We had left that world behind. Something inside us had fundamentally changed.

And on top of that, we had somehow gotten the magic that used to belong to the demons. I don’t know what that magic was going to allow us to do, but I could feel that it was flowing through my veins. It was strong and powerful. And it made me feel good.

I didn’t know what Rudy and I were going to do here in the mortal realm, or if we were even going to be allowed to stay for long, but I was interested in what was going to be an exciting future. I knew that Queen Trinity wanted the two of us here. I don’t know why, but she did. And that was all that I needed to convince me to stay.

Something, some unknown force, was making me feel like I needed to be here. There was something here that was telling me that I needed to stay in the mortal realm. I don’t know if it was Queen Trinity and her magic or if it was something else, but I knew that I didn’t want to leave until I found what that thing was. And I would stick with Queen Trinity for as long as I was here.

The day after getting my magical power, Rudy and I met with the guards that were part of Queen Trinity’s service. The men that were known as Shawn, Shane, David and Vincent had been with her since she had come to be in power. They had gained power and strength through their closeness to her. I hadn’t been with Queen Trinity for very long, but even I was getting stronger. She was blessing me and Rudy already.

…..

When Rudy and I met the other men, they started to explain what it was that they did. And how they trained when they weren’t actively protecting their queen. I don’t know why, but I initially thought that this place was just going to be some big joke and that nothing was very official. That wasn’t the case though. They took their jobs seriously. They lived in a true castle made for royalty, and everyone respected their king and Queen.

Rudy and I started to train with the men immediately. We were given drills to practice our strength and gauge our abilities. We were tested with various weapons. And we were being judged on every move we made. If we were able to prove ourselves worthy enough, then we would be able to guard Queen Trinity or one of her children. We would be given a job to do once they trusted us and our abilities.

I had lived my life as a demon. Most of that life had been spent as the guard that Queen Trinity had found me as, but there was more to it than just that. Unlike Rudy, I used to have another job. I was a warrior. It was long after the magic of the demons had faded, but we had once protected the underworld from invasion. There had been those of the celestial realm that had wanted to change the underworld to their own image. Someone had tried to forcibly take it over hundreds of years ago. And it was then that I had been created to fight in those battles. When we had prevailed, and the underworld was marginally safer, I was put to work guarding the souls that were receiving their punishments. The rulers of the underworld had wanted to make sure that the celestials were not trying to break the souls out and take them to another realm.

Rudy, on the other hand, had been made specifically to guard the gate. He had known nothing else until he had met Queen Trinity. He knew nothing of battle and nothing of fighting. He was learning it all for the first time. However, being born a demon, he had an innate knowledge of it to begin with. He knew how to fight, he had just never put it into practice. These lessons were vital for him to build his skills. And for me to hone mine.

The first day was exhausting, but we made it through somehow. I couldn’t believe that these men did this and more each day. I would need to put my all into it so that I didn’t fall behind them at all. I needed to stay ahead and prove that they could trust me completely.

The second day was easier. Knowing what it was that we needed to do, it was a lot easier to make it through it all. Rudy was keeping up a lot more as well. I was happy to see that he was learning and making progress.

We were also getting to know the other guards. I learned that Vincent was their leader, even though he seemed to be one of the nicer and softer men in the group. And he truly was. He was those things and more. However, he was a fierce opponent that put his all into protecting his queen and her family. And he knew how to command his unit properly.

The second nicest of the group was David. He was the kind of person that seemed to get along with just about everyone. He was able to make just about anyone trust him. But he too was an amazing fighter. He was faster than anyone could see, and he could end a fight as soon as it began. At least, he could end it with me that quickly.

Shawn was quiet and nice but also reserved. He seemed to favor long distance fighting the most, but he was also able to fight hand to hand really easily. And his twin brother Shane was just as skilled. He preferred to fight with swords and even showed me his lightning blade that he could wield. All of them were amazing and strong, and prime examples of what I wanted to be.

The only one that wasn’t quiet, reserved and nice was Shane. He was crude. He joked a lot. And he was always trying to have fun. He even thought that a battle could be fun. I would have disagreed with him if he hadn’t been in more wars than I had been. He knew more than I did, so I had no room to talk. I just needed to listen to him and learn from him. I didn’t have to act like him at all.

I was enjoying my training, but that wasn’t all that Rudy and I needed to learn. We needed to know how to act among the humans. We needed to know how to talk like them and how not to make them think that we weren’t one of them. We needed to learn how to be ‘modern’ as Vincent called it.

To learn this, we were introduced to a lot of devices that we had only heard about before. There were cellphones, televisions, radios, running water, toilets and so much more. We were told a lot of things, but we were also made to watch these things called movies and television shows. They were supposed to help us understand the way that people acted and treated each other. It all seemed so strange to me, but it was interesting, that was for sure.

And while I was enjoying learning how to fight like a true soldier and guard, and I liked learning about the world in general, I still wanted to see Queen Trinity again. I still wanted to know more about my magic. I wanted to know how to use it. I wanted to know what I was capable of. I wanted to know what Rudy and I were supposed to be doing to figure it all out.

I knew for a fact that only Queen Trinity would know how to help us. She would be the only one that could guide us and teach us about magic. She was a werewolf, a witch and a fae. And on top of that, she was a Goddess with the souls of three different celestials inside of her. She was special. She was amazing. And she was the one that needed to help us.

I begged and pleaded to Vincent, David, Shawn and Shane to get me a meeting with the queen. I knew that she wasn’t doing that well yet, but I needed to talk to her. She was pregnant, yes I understood that. She couldn’t move, yes I get that, but I don’t need her to move. She is recovering, yes I know that too. All I wanted was to talk to her. I needed to discuss things with her. I needed to work out some details. And only then would Rudy and I be able to start practicing our abilities with the other guards. Only then would I feel comfortable enough to take that next step.

If I didn’t want to hurt people, that’s what I needed to do. I had absolutely no other choice here. This was the only way. And thankfully,Queen Trinity agreed. We were going to meet in a couple of days.
