Chapter 196 - Throne

When they finally reached the huge and dark hall, they entered and before any of them could even reach the throne that Evie could not yet make out due to the extreme darkness and the massiveness of the place, the light fae stopped walking and turned around to face her.

"Please take off your shoes, princess." She said as she gestured elegantly to Evie's feet. And then she glanced at the men behind her. "The vampires must not come any closer. This is the closest they are allowed to proceed." Her voice was neutral and had no inflections of hostility nor friendliness.

Evie stilled for a moment before she moved again and began taking her shoes off. She could almost feel the curios gazes of her men at what she was doing. She knew they were nervous about being told to stop going forward with her.

The moment Evie's bare feet touched the floor, the same amber glow appeared again – similar to what occurred at the main gate. The glow then began to spread out, slowly lighting up the hall with its warm glow.

A gentle smile filled with relief flashed on the light fae's face. She then gestured Evie to come towards to where she was standing.

"All of you stay here," Evie told her men and before any of them could protest, she turned and walked forward. Then there were steps that seemingly appeared out of nowhere before her feet, she climbed on the first step and the steps began to glow too. The lights spreading wider and wider over the steps. But once she walked on, the place where she was standing previously right next to the vampires darkened again.

The men nervously watched the princess climb the steps towards the obsidian throne that was situated high above the ground level. The sight of the amber glow spreading out before disappearing again was extremely mesmerizing to watch.

Evie could not quite explain the feelings inside her at the moment. The mix of strange emotions she could not even understand why she was feeling were distracting her. So, she forced herself to ignore her emotions for now and just focused her mind on what was going on before her.

Fighting to keep her calm, Evie looked at the light fae who had finally halted right before her. She smiled at Evie once again in an attempt to reassure her. Then she bowed her head and gestured her snow-white hands towards the throne that was before her.

"Please seat on the throne, Princess." The light fae said and Evie creased her brows. She was taken aback at the request. What was happening now?

"Why?" she could no longer keep her mouth shut. "Why do I need to sit here?"

"You wanted to get your answers, right? Princess?" the light fae asked instead of answering. "I wanted to show you something… but you can only see them once you are seated on the throne, princess."

There was another period of silence as Evie looked at the light fae with suspicion in her eyes. She could not help it. The light fae was definitely asking her to seat on a majestic throne so dark and imposing and mysterious like this? Moreover, it was not even hers. How could she so simply plop down on a throne that did not belong to her? That could be said to be the utmost action of disrespect to the owner of this throne. No way would she do something as silly and dangerous as that! But…!!

But then again, she had no choice. She wanted her answers! Evie wanted… No, needed to see what the light fae was talking about. She came all the way here for that, risking everything.

Taking another deep breath, Evie decided to throw caution to the wind. She would just go ahead and do what was necessary for now and would deal with the consequences later. Evie then faced the throne and again she felt another strong and peculiar emotion churning inside of her. She closed her eyes and somehow managed to identify that the emotion she felt now does not seem to be related to fear.

Then she opened her eyes and holding her breath, she finally took the last few steps to sit on the throne. Evie squeezed her eyes shut as she did so, expecting something bad to happen to her. But after a couple of seconds, nothing happened, and she opened her eyes in relief.

Suddenly, the amber lights burst out from Evie's body then her light spread out in all directions very fast. In the next moment, the entire massive hall was glowing. It was literally shimmering with the amber glow that came from her! What on earth was happening?!

The vampires, including Evie stayed still and could only look on in a daze as if they were all enchanted. What just happened?! Was there some magic involved?

Even Evie could not quite believe her eyes. The hall which was once draped in depressing heavy darkness was now so glowing brightly that it could even vie the sun. The obsidian throne had also turned into a golden amber colour. Suddenly the darkness that seemed to be there to stay, was gone in a twinkling of an eye and everything turned magical. Holy hell!

But Evie and her men could not even stay awed and dumbstruck long enough as they suddenly snapped to attention at the sight of something strange.

The surprise and awestruck look on Evie's face slowly faded as she looked down at the things scattered all over the massive hall's floor.

Evie's eyes narrowed as she focused her gaze on the human-sized black crystals rising from the foot of the steps until it reached right by the door, except on the path leading towards the throne.

Suddenly, her heart thudded wildly. She subconsciously gripped the armrest of the throne before turning her inquisitive gaze at the light fae before her.

"W-what are these black crystals?" Evie asked even though in her heart she realised that somehow, she already knew the answer.
