Chapter 345 - Battle Between Wizards And Neotides (1)
Reese was spearheading the attack and she wanted the first attack to be extremely impactful because if they lagged in this one, they would hardly get a chance to recover. She knew that Cy would come as a backup along with Vikra. This time she wanted to prove to Vikra that she was a supreme general of the army. If the Wizard Kingdom fell, she would become Vikra's military general in the kingdom. Only imagining that was thrilling enough for her. She started looking and waiting for the last spell to break.

When Adrianna had come back to the Royal Palace, she found that Dmitri was already there. He was talking with servants who were telling him about a yellow flower that appeared in their gardens. It was a strange yellow flower that had been blooming from past many days now. Every flower that bloomed, withered in a matter of few days, but that one was holding from more than a week now. When Dmitri saw Adrianna entering the palace, he was excited to share the information like a baby.
While going back, he said, "When will yellow flowers blossom in our canopy? There is one growing outside, when will one grow inside?"
Adrianna shook her head and went to take a bath, which was already prepared by the servants. Dmitri followed her inside and sat on the edge of the bathtub as she soaked herself in the warm water. As she sat there, he said, "Baby, I might not come back for a few days."
Adrianna looked at him with a frown, "Why Dmitri? Where are you going?"
"I have to go to the human realm, perhaps to a different country. There are several werewolf packs around the world and a war has broken out amongst a large number on the middle earth. The leaders from there have asked me to come and negotiate terms in order for them to reach a solution," he answered as he combed her hair with his hands.
She sulked and her lips curved downward. "When will you be back?"
"Perhaps in two weeks…"
"What? How would I communicate with you?"
"You can walk through portal Adri. Whenever I will miss you, I will send a message to Nate or Liam on the phone and they will tell you my exact location," he answered rubbing the frown from her forehead.
"Let me also accompany you. I am very good at negotiating terms!"
Dmitri laughed at her.
The two of them talked for sometime and slept after having dinner. She held him close to her. She hated when he didn't come for a day. Two weeks are going to be hell. It was past midnight when a servant knocked at the doors. Adrianna woke up with a start. She looked at the source of the sound. The servant knocked again. This time she was alerted. "What is it?" she asked in anger.
"My Queen, sorry to disturb you, but on the southeast of the Wizard Kingdom, the walls have been breached. Isdorus, Ziu, Mihr and others are standing outside to have a word with you."
Adrianna sprang out of the bed and so did Dmitri. Both of them wore the night robes over there night suits and rushed out. Adrianna looked at them as she walked in tying the string of the robe across her waist. "What happened?" she asked without wasting time.
It was Mihr who replied, "There has been a breach on the southeast side of the kingdom. That was our weakest spot because it faced the human realm. One of the regular guards noticed sparks flying from that area. When he went to inspect it, he found that a wizard from the outside was breaking spells cast over there. As of now a very thin layer is left."
Adrianna started walking out, as she quickly swished her hands over her body from head to waist to change her appearance. Instead of the robe, she was now wearing a brown leather pants and a leather jacket. She looked at Dmitri and snapped her fingers. Next moment, even he was wearing black leather pants and jacket. All of them walked through the portal created by Mihr. Some of the ministry members started murmuring that it was a big mistake to induct Mihr as the military general.
One of them spoke loudly, "It seems that you have actually told them about this weak spot. Otherwise who would know about it?"
Another one chimed in, "My Queen you have done a huge blunder by inducting him as the military general. He is a snake in your arm."
"You should remove him and kill him!" added another.
Mihr looked miserable but he didn't say anything. The ghosts of his past would haunt him always.
"Quiet! All of you!" shouted Adrianna. "Let us focus on the perpetrator and let me do what I have to!"
She looked so threatening with her golden yellow eyes that they became quiet in an instant. Adrianna looked in front of her. She could make out through the haze that there was some movement on the other side. Immediately she put the invisibility spell on her ministry people. "I would like to know who is doing this. Which wizard has the nerve to even try to break the protection?"
"If I send someone on the other side, it is highly unlikely that he would come back," replied Mihr.
"So do we wait here until they break the entire wall?" Adrianna reprimanded him.
She looked at Ziu and said, "Go and find out now."
Ziu snapped his fingers and disappeared in smoke. He came back within a few minutes. "Cy's man is the only wizard breaking the wall. There is a large number of neotides outside."
Adrianna looked at Isidorus, who created a few more spells, but the problem was that he had to create them inside, which was taking space. They had to create it outside.
"Get the army from ministry training grounds now," ordered Adrianna. Isidorus left. Then she looked at Mihr, "I want five hundred of your army here, now!"
She turned to Dmitri, "You have to go back to the palace!"

Outside the wall, a smile appeared on Reese' face. It was about time. Her hands were itching to kill some of those wizards and witches who thought they were the supreme beings.
The wall was breached minutes later.
