Portal to the Fairy Tale

Dark Magic Vessel – Chapter 2

Hesley was still silent in the specially made prison by Glory. All he could do was shut up, sigh, and endure his hunger and thirst.

"Hey, you!"

Hesley turned his head when someone was trying to call him, that person was also around him right now. It seems like that person is also in prison.

And sure enough, after Hesley left and looked for the source of the voice, that person was next to the prison occupied by Hesley. A girl who was the same as him, only half his face was covered in fish scales and his ear shape was also strange.

"Who are you?" Ask Hesley.

The man was silent for a moment. He soon looked at her with a cold, sharp look. "What is a creature like you here?"

"I-i..."

"I wonder why Glory can imprison you, did you make a mistake? Or trying to oppose it?" Ask the person again, but the previous question has not been answered by Hesley.

"No. I guess. - oh, but I didn't do anything wrong except..." Hesley hesitated.

"Except what?"

"A moment after I open my brother's book." Reveal it.

The guy frowned. "Books? So, you went to this prison just for opening a book? So weird."

"Why are you in jail here?" Hesley switched topics. Of course he doesn't want to answer those questions.

"I tried to steal Glory's wand. No, rather take back the stick." Answer the man honestly.

"Wand? What do you mean it-"

"Yes, silver river scepter. It belongs to our kingdom, without it the kingdom will be hit by various problems." Cut it.

"So, that stick was stolen by Glory?" Hesley was curious.

"The son of man is never satisfied if he has not gotten stronger, I hate man." Said the man while hardening his jaw. It was in Hesley's eyes.

"Wait, what do you mean by a human child?" Tanya Hesley began to realize something.

"Glory, he was the son of man who was saved by the Florist queen when he was almost killed by all the creatures in Forestopia. Including my kingdom at that time." Evidently.

"Forestopia?" Hesley was confused. There were a lot of foreign words that confused him.

The creature looked at Hesley sharply. "You're not from this country, where did you come from?"

"I'm from.earth,"

"What planet do you think we're on right now? It's planet earth, don't mess with me." A little emotional reply.

So, this place is also part of the earth? Hesley murmured in his heart.

"Do you know the way back to London?" Ask Hesley to the guy. I don't know why Hesley even asked the way home to a strange stranger.

"London's? What is that thing?" Confused that guy.

"That's not a thing, that's where I come from."

"I've never heard of London here."

"Gosh, I think I'm gonna wait for Lindsey to come save me." Hesley said in a soft tone.

"You're hoping someone will save you from this place? Cih, don't expect too much. This prison was very powerful and only Glory was able to open it, not even the Florist queen could because the dark spell on Glory's body was too strong." Reveal the man in a fearful tone.

"My brother will definitely save me." Sure Hesley.

"Oh yeah? Then you just wait for your savior angel." That person chose to lay his body on that cold floor.

"You yourself how? Is there no family or friends trying to save you?" Ask Hesley. He seemed to want to know all about that person.

"No, everybody's scared of Glory. In three days' time I'll be put to death." Said relaxed.

"What?! W-why?" Shocked Hesley.

"Don't I say it?"

Hesley frowned confusedly.

The person let out a rough sigh and went back to explaining it to Hesley. "I'm trying to retrieve the silver river stick that Glory stole." Papar's back.

"My mother will be disappointed that I can't bring back our scepter." Wrote that man.

"Wait, are you a royal noble?"

"Of course, I am the royal lord of Silver Down. One of the underwater kingdoms in Forestopia." Reveal it.

"You think I want to be here?"

"HEY'RE YOU! QUIET DOWN!" Shouted the guards who were guarding the prison. The two bodyguards seemed to hear Hesley's shocked cry as the person who was currently chatting with him was a noble.

"Curtain! Forget about it, forget about our conversation. I'm tired, I'm going to sleep." The man tried to ease the conversation.

"We haven't met." Hesley.

"No need to get acquainted. My name is Yves."

"You said you didn't need to get acquainted, why mention your own name?"

"That's how mermaid gets acquainted,"

"Wait, are you a mermaid? The real mermaid?"

"Why are you asking?"

"I've never seen a mermaid, I mean, just when I was reading a fairy tale about a mermaid."

The man left the lantau after hearing the fairy tale coming out of Hesley's mouth. "Tales?"

"Ehm...You don't know what a fairy tale is?"

"No, and I don't care. Now say your name!"

"Ahh, my name is Hesley Lane."

"Hesley Lane?"

"L-yes..." Hesley nodded briefly.

"What a weird name."

Weird huh? I think it's still normal. Inner Hesley.

"So, do you have a plan? To escape this prison?" Hesley asked Yves.

"No, I don't have any plans. I hope Glory kills me soon because I can't bring back the scepter belonging to Silver Down's underwater kingdom. I've let everyone down at Silver Down."

"You want to just give up and give up on the situation? What is it to be called a noble who is respected by his people?" Hesley suddenly said.

"What?" Yves.

"You said you were a noble, rather you were a Silver Down royal princess. Then, why did you just give up? There must be another way to reclaim the wand and conquer Glory." Hesley assures Yves of his determination.

Yves drew closer to Hesley prison with an angry look. "You think anyone other than the Florist queen can defeat him? No. gabe. No leader of any kingdom in Forestopia can conquer it."

"Why are you so sure?"

Yves frowned. Hesley is the one who does not give up when it comes to surrender and surrender. Although he himself had felt lost hope, but after hearing the story of Yves he realized and should not rely on the brother. He should also try to get out of this prison.

"If we work together, it can definitely defeat Glory." Hesley's Advice.

"Cooperate?"

"The Silver Down Kingdom can cooperate with other kingdoms in Forestopia, right?"

"Do you know? After the appearance of Glory that caused various kinds of damage, all the kingdoms here were never again willing to cooperate. They chose to attach importance to their own kingdom in order to protect their people."

"Then we convince them to cooperate."

"I'm not sure it'll work."

"We haven't tried it yet, we have to be sure of our decision, Yves."

Yves fell silent contemplating all of Hesley's words. Ninety percent of Hesley's words made Yves conscious and determined again.

"You're right, we haven't tried it."

Hesley smiled faintly at Yves's reply who agreed with him.

"So, do you have a plan?"

"I have some ideas, and I need your help." Said Hesley smiling at the thought of the idea he had in his head.
