Omega Summoner

“It is probably due to the Curse of the Nymph.” Adrian stated.

‘A curse? You mean to say that t he area of the castle is cursed?” Lycan asked in order to get some clarity.

“It is not the castle that is cursed but the royal family itself. The story of the Nymph is indeed true, but it seems that there is more to the story than what is told.” Adrian replied.

“Did the priests from the Church of Life answer your questions?” Solstice asked as she knew that her brother is the Champion of the Twin Gods. She even spit out the juice she was drinking once when she saw priests basically worshipping him. It was a strange scene to see your little brother being the object of admiration and veneration.

“They might like me as the Champion of the Twin Gods, but the priests have a code to never tell a soul about what the people tell them. Even if they were to be threatened, they should carry that burden to the graves or else they will suffer harsh punishment from the God of Death.” Adrian replied as he did not get anything from the priests stationed in the Church of Life.

“If that is the case, where did you get your information about the curse?” Solstice asked as she does not believe that her brother would simply make something like a non-existing curse.

“I got it from the spirit of a deceased soldier that cannot pass through the afterlife because of the great burden that he bears. More specifically, he was a soldier that was a commoner and became one of the loyal retainers of the prince back then.” Adrian stated.

“If he is a soldier then he would have been able to pass on into the afterlife even with a burden like that. Wait! More importantly…you can talk to ghosts?” Solstice shockingly stated.

“I am not the Champion of the Twin Gods for nothing. That title has such a heavy responsibility. I must take the requests of the deceased in order to guide them to the afterlife. Can you see my greatness now?” Adrian stated as he posed with a silly expression.

Adrian suddenly felt a hot sensation on his head as it was already hit by a powerful smack. It seems that Solstice did not hold back as this is a game not real life. Her brother will not get permanent head damage if she were to do that in the real world. .

“Speak boy or else it is not your head that will be hit next.” Solstice stated as she started to get impatient with her brother.

“Fine. So, like what the story says about a nymph being the reason for the death of the imperial family. That part is true but what they did not say is that it was not just a normal nymph but a half breed between a human and a nymph.” Adrian stated as he continued the whole story.

A father and daughter lived in this kingdom a hundred years ago after traveling by sea. It seems that the daughter was extremely different from others as she had aquamarine hair. She is also a great beauty and very proficient in the use of water magic.

She did not know that her mother was a nymph in the early stages of her life. That half breed girl grew up with a boy next door that had outstanding talent in swordsmanship. Needless to say, the girl with a talent in magic and a boy with talent in swordsmanship made a name for themselves and were given the privilege of being the knight of royalty.

The girl with her beauty became a royal court mage to the tenth prince of the kingdom. The tenth prince is the son of a human mother with no elven heritage unlike five of the princes before him that had elven lineage albeit looking fully human. The tenth prince is not as talented in magic like his brothers and sisters, nor did he have great talent in swordsmanship.

The tenth prince with no special talent whatsoever became surrounded by talented people due to his mother. She especially wanted to find talent in the commoners as she wanted a valuable pawn to sacrifice when her plan came to fruition.

On the founding day of the kingdom, the mother of the tenth prince poisoned the king, queens, and the first to ninth prince and princess. She then took help from a special entity to give a necklace to the girl which made her control her actions. Adrian could more or less think that the necklace came from the followers of the dark gods.

In the end, the girl got tricked and massacred the already poisoned royal family members. The prince at that time, who loved the girl with all her heart, could not believe what he witnessed. The girl she loved kill all of his family members and even attempted to suicide if not for the intervention of his mother.

The real one who struck the girl to death was her childhood friend that loved her. He only executed her because of the command of the Queen mother of the tenth prince. He also got killed in the end by the queen’s trusted knights in the end.

The father of the girl also got executed because killing a royal family member is equal to treason. The whole incident got buried as a heroic act of the tenth prince. What they did not know is that the girl is actually the lost daughter of the Nymph Queen who is said to have descended from the God of the Seas, Poseidon.

Upon learning what her daughter has suffered, the Nymph Queen cast a powerful curse on the royal family. Since her daughter was killed, she made sure that most of the children born from the royal family will die from childbirth or the child will die early in life.

“Makes sense why they pray fervently to the Church of Life..” Solstice stated.
