On My Way: The Demon King Made Me His

Chapter 187: Early War

Tai and his supporters set out earlier than the time the battle was fixed. Two days earlier. When Tai set out he had no idea that he is walking into the trap dragging the other realms along with him. His plan to surprise the Demon army before their preparations and launch and attack energised him. 

The spy King Huo appointed sent a raven from the border to the Demon's Castle immediately. 

"My lord, we have a raven," the guard knocked Aqua's bed chamber when Huo'er's bed chamber was found empty. 

"What is it?" Huo asked putting on the robe on. The maids who stood with the breakfast turned away and waited for him to get ready. He asked the people to close the doors and quickly helped Aqua get ready. 

"So Tai indeed did it, it going as we planned it," Aqua put on her armour and out her hair up. She had not worn them for a really long time. 

"It's been so long," she smiled and looked at Huo who stole her heart in a second wearing the red robes and black armour over his body. Aqua walked over and out the belt around his hip and looked at Aqua as he lifted her chin. "We will kill him," she nodded and leaned closer as he took her lips. King Huo'er kissed her for a minute and dashed out to the court. Aqua and Huo stood on the platform with all the ministers, royal guards, and everyone from Water Realm. 

"As per the plan, sent a troop to guard the front line, inside the barrier put up, let the enemies think we have no enough force. We will stand with the front line. As for the rest, remember to catch each and every soldier from other realms and apparate back to the fake castle we set up and lock them in the room until the war is settled. You hear me?" Demon King said.

"Yes," the guards shouted back. 

"Don't slack, and if you feel tired or severely wounded come back to the infirmary we have set up around the battle grounds, do not worry about us or any officials, we will win this war and come back in victory to celebrate for a whole week," he said. Everyone roared and began to disperse to report to the duty and go to the battle ground. 

King Aenon and Grand Prince Aiden led the Water Realm's troop to the war field while Queen Rivera and Fox Queen Milan chose to stay in the background to keep eyes on the army brought by Tai the fake Phoenix. 

"Rivera," some one called the Water Queen. Rivera turned around to see who it is. It was Empress Lihua.

"Lihua what are you doing here? You should not fight today, come with me," Queen Rivera said.

"No I will not fight but I will watch him die for good, I will watch my Demon husband die," she said with tears in her eyes. Rivera hugged her only best friend and consoled her. Fox Queen stood silently. Aqua saw the event from the distance. Her sister, mother and mother in law joining forces. She smiled and left to the battle ground without interrupting them. She led her Demon Army. She had put on the black robe, looking like a typical Demoness. She did not have the plan to let go of a single soul that wishes to destroy them, and not destroy Tai instead. 

"Let's wait, crossing the dessert is not an easy task, they indeed will march quick but they will be exhausted," Aqua told everyone. "You may hurt but must not kill one innocent soul. Remember the moves that would hurt them but not kill them," 

"Yes princess," her troops agreed with her. "We shall win, we shall win, we shall win, we shall win," they chanted loudly. 

"Yes," Aqua smirked and rose to the sky and she saw Huo doing the same. The two rose high above the clouds and turned into their true forms. The dragons. The dragons with the power to shake the universe while combined. Everyone looked up at the sky in wonder. King Aenon took a deep breath while Rivera stood observing her daughter with a sigh of relief instead. 

"We should have never offended her," Fox Queen said. 

"I know, I did not know she would take it to her heart and grow distant from us," Queen Rivera agreed with her second daughter. "But choosing the path of Demons I was not expecting that,"

"Me too ma, and seeing Aiden i can understand that very clearly, his regret, though he is trying to cover it up in front of me, I can understand very well," Crown Princess Milan said.

"Aiden. He.."

"No ma he has fine, we love each other, but he loved Aqua longer, that became a routine in his life, he is coming out of it, but it will take time, I should respect his feelings don't you think," 

"Am proud of you Milan, once the war is over I will let you and him decide and arrange the marriage for you with your aunt and uncle," Queen Rivera promised her daughter. 

Empress Lihua stayed out of the battle with her poor health condition. She walked until she reached the burial place and visited Late King Dritan. "We will put an end to this," she said. A rock garden it was. She could hear the drums in the distance indicating the arrival of the enemy. She knew the war has begun and the loud screams from the battlefield approached her ears in the form of echo with the wind that stroked her hair. Lihua got up and set up a barrier around Dritan's resting place. "I will see to it, that he dies in front me, us, and I will pluck his core out myself," Empress Lihua decides with utmost hatred. "Wait for me you bastard," she said and apparated back to the castle. She rose to the sky as well and spread her golden wings. Everyone looked shocked seeing her. "Lihua," Rivera gasped.
