บท 17: Honey, You're Not Omnipotent
With a steady expression, Iris was aiming an arrow at Azura.
Seeing this, Azura snickered. At once, he started to move towards her.
Whoosh!
The first arrow was shot.
Azura easily dodged it and continue to close in on her. Iris took out another arrow and shot it at him, only to be dodged again. This continued for all of her arrows.
Azura's nimble movement and amazing agility, Iris couldn't help but gape at. She narrowed her eyes and drew her very last arrow. More careful then before, she aimed at his neck. Not giving him time to get a gist of her direction, she steadily let go of the arrow and it rushed towards him!
Just like before, Azura immediately turned to the right to avoid the arrow. But who knew, he managed to avoid getting shot in the neck, but her arrow grazed past his arm, leaving a small cut on it.
Azura looked at the slit on his arm and said nothing, seemingly not fazed by it. He looked up, only to see a subtle smile on Iris's lips. Frowning, he was about to move again, when he suddenly became shocked.
His body...he couldn't move at all!
He stood frozen on the ground, not moving an inch.
He even exerted force, but to no avail!
This was...
Poison?
He heard a soft laughter.
It was like a spring breeze, moving past the ear like a gentle feather.
Iris was looking at the frozen man with a smile.
"You used poison?" Azura asked, his face sullen and his eyes radiating a chilly aura.
"I didn't want to use this type of trick anyway" Iris gazed at him calmly. The problem was, hey! she just saw a shabby looking house by accident, and he was going to kill her for that? That was going overboard.
Yes, this was the arrow she smeared with her paralyzing poison last night.
She didn't think she'd end up using it on him.
The poison completely paralyzes a person, the affects would last for about 4 hours.
She wanted to use it in case of emergency. Though this emergency was unexpected, it was still an emergency.
If she didn't fire this arrow, her life would surely be done for.
She wasn't a match for Azura in her current body.
Though she knew, the consequences for this action would not be ordinary.
Strolling over to his side, Iris tilted her head teasingly and smiled at him.
The current seventh prince had never been bested before.
For the first time in his life, he had been forced to defeat.
This was an occasion to celebrate, Iris thought to herself.
Though his retaliation would be a problem, It's good to enjoy this while she can.
Thinking this, she said to him, "Honey, you're not omnipotent."
He must've been in the delusion that no-one could beat him, ever...
Iris felt joy in crushing this delusion of his.
In comparison to her dearly cherished life, this was nothing. She'll deal with him when the time comes. She has her ways to do that anyway.
Heh, she, Iris, was not to be underestimated!
...
After some time, she went back to her horse and gathered her hunted animals. Then, she secretly moved out of the area without alerting anyone.
The sky was growing dark and the hunt was about to end. After Iris got past the forest, she saw that many people had returned back. Giving her hunt to the collecting area, she strolled past the people and moved towards her carriage.
The results would be announced a few days later. She wanted to return back now.
Just as she was about to alight the carriage, she noticed a figure leaning against her carriage.
It was her second sister, Athia.
She seemed to be waiting for her.
Putting her raised foot down, she turned towards her.
After Athia noticed Iris had come, she came forward and stopped in front of her. Her face remained indifferent as she spoke to her, "In the competition, where were you?" Her tone gave off a very meaningful vibe.
Iris blinked once and calmly replied to her in the same indifferent way, "Don't know. I was just roaming around."
Muttering an "Oh", Athia started walked past Iris. Just as they were about to cross, Athia stopped beside Iris. Casting a side glance at her, she smiled and said, "I know you went to the forbidden territory."
Iris chuckled slowly at her response, but didn't say anything. The two crossed at Iris climbed into the carriage while Athia went back to Aria.
Sitting in the carriage, Iris waited for the others to come back. After waiting a short while, Iris cast a glance at the forest.
At that moment, a horse rushing up out of the woods caught Iris's eye.
And the one riding the horse was Azura.
Iris was shocked and widened her eyes. The poison was supposed to last for four hours, why was he here now?
His strength, Iris squinted her eyes, his strength really couldn't be underestimated!
At that moment, Azura dismounted his horse and looked in Iris's direction.
Their eyes met. Both stared at the other intimidatingly.
But that was all.
It wasn't like those stupid novels that Iris had read, where one could see the story of their life in their partner's eyes.
That sort of bullsh*t only happened in those novels, because Iris couldn't get anything out of his eyes. They were just threatening.
Never would've thought the seventh prince was this formidable.
After Azura averted his eyes, he moved to the royal carriage and left.
Yet before leaving, he smiled at Iris.
That smile seemed to warn her of her fate, extremely cruel and bloodthirsty.
Iris's heart involuntarily chilled. One problem after another, she has to brace through.
Else, how will she survive?
