Sam and Chatur both once again traveled to the Fysi castle to deliver Night Charm. Sam did expect that she would come after him. But he didn't expect that she would come the very day he was given the task to find her.
He must say he is lucky.
As for why the thunder prison was already prepared. It is because, he was sick of these people using that weird shadow token to escape every time, Sam was ready to finish them off.
He couldn't think of any methods instantly and decided to try his luck with the thunder prison and when he saw the results he was ecstatic.
But he didn't make this trip for her. He just thought that since the first attack failed, the second and third attacks wouldn't be far away. So, he just wanted to be prepared. He is just damn too lucky to have caught her.
He immediately decided to take her to Fysi Palace to finish the mission.
But when they were in the middle of their journey, Sky suddenly attacked into the clouds and two wind blades shot through the clouds dealing with two fireballs that are coming at Sam.
Sam didn't care though, he also noticed the attacks, but they are not strong enough for him to worry over them.
Sky didn't stop, he took a large hard turn and two wind blades shot to the front and the rear. A large flame and the frost lance are deflected.
The clouds disappeared and two men are flying on the beasts. The beasts are nothing special like the Fiend vulture. They are at most on the level of the Dark wind owls. Their sole purpose might as well be traveling.
A man and woman are standing on these beasts. The man has fire elemental energy on his palm as if he was ready to attack. The woman is also the same, but then in place of the fire element, she has ice.
Sam looked at them again and again as if he was trying to see through them.
"Leave Night Charm now and you can live for a day more. We promise we wouldn't make an attempt on your light tonight." The man said coldly.
Sam didn't seem to care at all. He just told Sky to make sure that both Night Charm and Chatur are safe, as he stood up.

Sam almost wanted to curse their stupidity. If even the Wind Fiend is unable to take him on in the aerial battle, then what gave these guys enough confidence to take him on? As he thought like this, he suddenly realized something.
The reason they are bluffing is that they cannot take him on in the air, otherwise they could attack him and take her away.
He started contemplating whether he should take them down or not. He shook his head after some thinking and felt like it is not worth it.
He sat down once again and tapped Sky on his back. The sky looked at the two beasts and gave a loud screech.
*SCREEEEEEECH*
The aura of the beast was released and the scream is almost like it is commanding the lowly beasts to leave his territory. The territory of the Sky sovereign.
The two beasts became unstable and almost stopped flying altogether. When the riders on them wanted to maintain the balance, Sam raised his hands and aimed at them. One of them was covered with golden flames and the other is covered with water energy.
He shot a large jet of both and hit the two people making them unable to control. The beasts also took some brunt and they became even more unstable.
Sam watched as they fell rapidly. He didn't care if they would live or die, but he felt like them living has greater odds and he just resumed his journey.
There is no way he would try to fight now. If something happened and Night charm died from falling, then he would have lost a deal. Abyss grass is too valuable for him to do that.
Sky didn't go at in leisurely pace as before. He moved at full speed to not let other people ambush. But his mind was thinking something else. How could someone know his position all the time?
Night charm attacking him could be easily understood because Sam staying at the lake is not exactly a great surprise. There are many people who saw him. But the appearance of the Wind fiend and these two people is not exactly called for.
He would have to think this situation through and find a suitable solution to avoid this. But before that he has to find the core of the problem, when he asked Chatur, he thought long and hard and said.
"I will check this out tomorrow morning."
"How?"
"I think it is something related to the Nagin castle. After we reach the Fysi castle, I will travel to the Nagin castle, even though I am weak I can save myself with my techniques and travel without worry. I will reach the Pearl Lake by tomorrow evening."
Sam nodded and just waited for their journey to be over.
After an hour, they reached the fysi castle and Sam let Chatur carry Night Charm over Prince Dharkan's personal room.
When Dharkan saw Night Charm, his face became extremely complicated as a range of emotions could be seen on his face.
Anger, sadness, happiness, and frustration all at the same time. The range of emotions on Night Charm didn't vary that much.
He knew that there must be some important history between both of them. But he didn't care, he just looked at them as he waited to talk to Dharkan.
Chatur whispered something to Sam and after receiving a nod of agreement, he immediately ran out of the room and left the castle.
Sam just stood there as he saw the two people in question still stood there without a word.
He gave a dry cough as if it was a trigger, both of them lunged at each other and started kissing wildly. Sam didn't know if he should laugh or cry. They don't have any sense of propriety at all. With an outsider standing here, how can they commit such shameless acts?
Sam raised his aura and gave another cold cough, but this time it stuck their minds as he used his mental energy to make them come back to his senses.
"You can do what you want after I left," Sam said and all three of them sat down. Night charm is still under restriction but it was tweaked a bit only to restrict her cultivation.
"Dharkan why are so persistent? What would happen, if someone saw me here? Now you either have to kill me or you have to bear a lot of pressure. You might even lose your title. Is it worth it?"
Night charm spoke in a flustered tone.
On the way, Sam hasn't mentioned they are going to Fysi castle, even when she was at the castle, she thought Sam is selling her to some other Yaksha, she didn't expect the one who is waiting for her is Dharkan, if she had known this, she would have rather committed suicide just by rolling over Sky's back during the intrusion of her sect members.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDharkan didn't reply to her and looked at Sam.
"How many people know of her coming here?"
"Me and Chatur and the people of her sect. There is a possibility that some people of the Nagin castle might have known."
"That means everyone in the dimension will know about this in a few days."
Dharkan muttered and Sam just stayed silent.
"Can you remove her restrictions?" Sam looked at him and said.
"Are you sure?"
When he nodded his head, Sam just shrugged and removed her restriction. She cannot escape anyway, her spatial ring was already taken away and there are two more shadow tokens inside.
As soon as he removed her restrictions though, he immediately covered himself in shadows and disappeared from the spot. A large dark ice lance passed through the floor from where Sam stood. Night charm disappeared and reappeared near Sam's spot as Dharkan used his dark element and ice element in tandem to attack Sam.
Sam grew angry and his gaze turned colder.
He kicked his leg and a lump of dark elemental energy escaped from it before a shadow appeared behind Dharkan. This is his shadow undead. The remaining shadows also came and captured Dharkan, before Sam caught Night Charm by her neck with one hand and used his another hand and chopped on her shoulder with his palm.
The dark elemental energy waves moved all over his hand as he slashed on her shoulder and there was a miniature explosion tearing open the shoulder of the shadow body and deactivating the fusion. His hand went through the shoulder like a hot knife through butter.
Everything happened silently the only noise that was made was the attacks of Dharkan even they are sharper than a brute.
When he saw Sam slicing the arm off of Night Charm and the woman couldn't even scream as Sam choked her throat, Dharkan stopped struggling and stayed in place.
Sam looked at the woman dead in the eyes as he said.
"Do you think I am incompetent just because I didn't kill you earlier? If not for the fact I made a deal with this sorry excuse of a man who couldn't even keep his word, I wouldn't have bothered to keep you alive. I would have killed you the second I caught."
He looked at the prince and spat on the floor.
"Ungrateful piece of shit."
