Capítulo 4: Finding Traces
Cronos's last howl was heard grieving until the ears of Rhea and Matheus who had walked far from the palace in the cold snow that had started to fall from the sky.
Rhea's stopped her steps, and she is looked towards the palace. She sensed what had happened to her husband, King Cronos. Likewise Matheus. "My king?" Rhea said, stepping back.
"Matheus, I wanna go back to the palace!" She said that she was about to step back to the palace. But Matheus held her back.
"Don't be stupid, Your Highness! It's too dangerous there, I'm sure the vampires are hunting us after they don't find us in the palace," Matheus exclaimed, looking at the black smoke soaring the clouds.
"Are you deaf, Matheus? My husband howled in pain, he is must be overwhelmed against the vampires!" Queen Rhea shrieked to Matheus, she hugged Hermes tightly in her arms. His eyes stared hard but stored a heartbreaking sadness. She recently gave birth to a cute, cute, and handsome baby, but she had to lose her husband at a time when she still needed her husband's love.
"I know Your Highness! But this is trustworthy of King Cronos, I must protect you and prince Hermes!" He said. "Believe in the power of King Cronos, Your Highness! Don't disappoint King Cronos, the Queen of Rhea, he will definitely be able to defeat the Vampires," he said looking at Queen Rhea's face who was very worried about her husband who was fighting in the palace.
Queen Rhea is silent, she thought Matheus's words have a point. This is for the safety of herself and also Hermes, her son. The most beautiful gift that King Cronos gave her. "We must go from here immediately, Your Highness! It is too dangerous for you and the prince if us still too long to stay here," said Matheus. Queen Rhea ignored Matheus's words for a moment. Silent while looking at the palace which was already filled with black smoke. She let out a breath, turned around, and started to follow Matheus' steps who were waiting for him ahead.
Her feet continued to climb on the white snow, staring at Hermes who was still asleep in Rhea's arms. That innocent face, no matter what is happening to the kingdom, his father, and also the family that has been ravaged by the vampires.
But in the palace,
Together with Cronos ' screams, the heart that was in Argos' hand tore the back of Cronos. Blood flowed from Cronos' hand and the wound in his chest. Argos looked overly pleased with a condescending gaze towards Cronos.
The hand gripped Argos's arm until it tore off his royal robe. The body gradually shrank down, sat down, Cronos's gaze had a grudge, full of wounds and hurt towards Argos for the rest of Cronos' life. But Argos doesn't care about Cronos' resentment towards him. For him, the life and kingdom of Cronos were already in his grasp and were on the brink of collapse.
Cronos fell, lying on the floor with blood that kept coming out of the wound from Argos's hand. Very wide.
And how crazy Argos is, he really enjoyed seeing how much Cronos was suffering when he was going to his death just now. His smile was very wide and the blood on his hand was licked until it ran out. He no longer cares about the agreement. For him, power and food supplies are the most important for himself and the people in his kingdom without having to care about the friendship.
He bent his knees, and then.
"Now, I'm going to make your wife and children as to be my desserts, Cronos!" Said Argos while patting Cronos cheeks who were no longer alive. Argos then ordered his men to find Queen Rhea and Prince Hermes in the palace. The remaining men and bodyguards of Argos are busy obeying Argos's orders, to find Cronos' children and wife and also the werewolf people who are still alive.
They started hunting, looking all over the place in the palace but the vampire always got chaotic conditions. Werewolf corpses were lying all over the palace floor. From commoners to the greatest bodyguard Cronos who tried to protect the palace and the people from the attacks of Argos and his men.
However, their search was fruitless. There is no existence of Queen Rhea and Prince Hermes. Everywhere is empty, nothing. "Sorry Your Majesty, we have not found the son and wife of the king of Cronos anywhere in this palace," said one of Argos's men, looking afraid to convey the message of not wearing it.
"WHAT?" Argos's eyes bulged. "Then you guys want to keep quiet and just give up, huh? Quickly you search wherever he and his child are, find and then bring them here !!" Argo's orders wrath. His men nodded and then slowly withdrew.
Seek and obey the angry and irritated Argos. His men did not want Argos to be very angry, because everyone could die if the king was very angry. This time, they were looking outside the palace. Searching for traces of Queen Rhea and Matheus in the white of the falling snow. The more it makes the air colder.
And then, the trail became known even though the falling snow began to cover it. The vampires moved to follow every trail that made an impression on the white snow. The vampires smiled. "You guys split up !!" Shouted one of the strongest Argos Guards among the others. They followed him.
The bodyguard rushed after Rhea, Hermes, and Matheus. He would not let Cronos' children, wife, and bodyguard get away with it. The almost lost track of being swallowed by the snowflakes continues to be observed where Matheus and Rhea are heading.
Matheus and Queen Rhea continued to walk amidst the falling snow. The wind started blowing hard. Queen Rhea walked behind Matheus while continuing to hug Hermes so as not to get cold. Then Matheus stepped forward in front of Rhea, took the lead, and watched the surrounding situation from the Vampire's attack which they might find traces of Matheus and Queen Rhea. He looked back for a moment, making sure that Queen Rhea and the prince of Hermes were all right. However, he saw that his Queen's face was getting cold, Matheus was also worried that Hermes was too young to continue his journey.
"Your Highness, how about we find a resting place for a while?" Matheus said, he is stoped his step in front of Rhea.
Rhea turned her head, she looked at the face of her husband's bodyguard. Matheus is actually not pure blood from the werewolf race, werewolf blood flows from his father's blood. He was found by the father of King Cronos, the grandfather of Prince Hermes who was hunting for food in the forest. Then Matheus was brought to the palace and cared for as Cronos's personal bodyguard.
"Well, I'm worried about Hermes too! And I think he's getting hungry," said Queen Rhea, stroking her son's cheek.
"I'll find a safe place for you!" Said Matheus very confidently. He and Queen Rhea began to continue their steps to find a temporary resting place.
However, he and Rhea had not yet gone far. Matheus was already surprised by one of Argos's men who blocked the three of them.
"Finally, I found you, Matheus, Queen Rhea!" Said the Argos bodyguard, smiling sarcastically.
"Shit, are they starting to find us?" said Matheus, starting to guard his queen dan his prince. Raised his guard and glared at Argos's bodyguard.
