Felis pulled Kaitos inside the moment the servant left and closed the door. He made him sit on the chair and ordered his men to keep a watch on him.
Kaitos waited with patience for his monks to arrive. His monks knew some dark magic but none were as powerful as Felis. However, their collective magic could be of help and a strong force against Felis. He hoped that they all worked in sync with each other and used their magic to defeat Felis and kill his Nyxers.
After an excruciating wait of twenty minutes he heard heavy footsteps of the monks who gathered outside his bedchamber. Once again, he tried to contact them via his mind link but the barrier still existed. He couldn't get past through it. He clenched his jaws as he looked at Felis with hatred.
Felis became cautious the moment the monks gathered over there. He said, "Ask three of your head monks to come inside. I want to talk to them."
Kaitos sneered. "If you are thinking that they haven't as yet understood as to what is happening inside, then you are a fool."
Felis strode towards and slapped him hard on his face. Kaitos fell on the ground with the chair. A Nyxer came and made him sit back on the chair. Felis growled, "I am not asking you to comment. Call your head monks. Now!" He grabbed him by his arm and pulled him up. He dragged him to the main door and opened it slightly. Even as Kaitos resisted, Felis grabbed the back of his head and pushed it outside the small gap of the floor. "Now call them!"
When Kaitos resisted, Felis took his dagger out and pierced it in his shoulder blade. "I am going to twist it slowly until you shriek and they come in for your rescue. And then my Nyxers are going to kill them one by one. So don't waste my time and yours and call them inside."
Kaitos knew that he was dealing with a lunatic. He looked at his monks and nodded at those who were standing in the front. They looked at him with suspicion. They stared at him for a few seconds, hoping to connect with him through the mind link, but a thick and dark barrier was stopping them. Not being able to speak with their High Priest, the three head monks walked slowly to the door.
In the next half an hour, Felis was standing in front of five more monks, narrating his plan. "I will take you all to the border of the Pegasii Kingdom. You have to collectively use your magic against the faes over there and kill them one by one!"
"But why will the faes come to us? Surely, they wouldn't want to be killed!" one of the pointed out.
"They will," Felis replied coldly, glancing at Kaitos who had stirred a little. "I will send a message to them with his seal."
The monks realized the horror of his plan. They shuddered when Felis gestured to his men to pull up Kaitos.
One of the Nyxers splashed water over him and Kaitos fluttered open his eyes, with a headache pounding. He saw Felis furiously writing a message on a scroll on his desk. When he was finished, he came to Kaitos. Holding the paper in front of him, he said, "Sign."
When Kaitos read the message, he shuddered. "This is—"
"Sign!"
The message was to ask King Biham to extend help to Cetus by sending his faes. If the faes entered Cetus, they would be practically walking to their doom.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
