Ice Prince: Rewrite The Star

Harmonie went to be bait for the Vectis guarding Yuna's Vectis to chase after her. That way, Chu Jung could reach and free Vectis Yuna.

On the other hand, Ashley was starting to feel weak. Her head felt dizzy, her body felt weak, and her breathing began to become unsteady. Ashley didn't know whether she could walk or not.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Ashley's vision was starting to get a little blurry, and she felt like fainting. She could no longer even hear what Chu Jung was saying.

Chu Jung exhaled, creating a light vortex, and then directed it around Ashley's frame. Although the red king's source of energy was fire, each ruler could control the weather and the elements around them.

The wind he created wasn't as refreshing as Harmonie's, but it was enough to make Ashley breathe normally.

Chu Jung wiped the sweat off Ashley's forehead with his sleeve. He didn't know that his spontaneous action made the girl's body temperature double.

Ashley could finally breathe when she felt the air around her was cool and not as humid as before. But her face heated up again when Chu Jung's body advanced closer and suddenly one of the young men's hands pressed against her forehead, then went down to wipe her cheeks and neck!?

Ashley shifted back and smacked Chu Jung's hand violently.

"You… didn't anyone teach you that you shouldn't touch girls carelessly?"

Chu Jung tilted his head with an innocent and astonished expression. "Yes, but I didn't touch you. I was only helping you…."

"By touching me!" Ashley hissed furiously.

Chu Jung blinked a few times, not understanding why this beautiful older sister was angry.

"That… are you in that period?"

It took a few seconds to comprehend what he was saying before her eyes went wide, and...

A loud slap was heard due to the palm colliding with the cheek, but strangely the one who screamed in pain was the one who slapped.

"Aaaaaa… damn it! It hurts!" Ashley growled as she grumbled and waved her hands up and down.

What is his face made of? Is it from stones? Her hand was sore and burning in pain from slapping the red king. Ashley thought she had hit an iron door with a bare hand.

Chu Jung gaped wide when he saw Ashley jumping up and down while waving her hands. He didn't understand why the girl hit him, but the girl's punch felt like an ant's bite, so he felt no pain.

But apparently, it was the girl who was in pain.

Chu Jung just stood there watching the beautiful yet irritable. Whatever he did would worsen the girl's mood, so he chose to remain silent.

However, he couldn't bear to see the girl in pain and pondered himself. He could have taken the pain away from Ashley's hand, but he had to come into contact with the injured hand for the energy to flow to heal it directly.

Alas, Ashley seemed to hate his touch, remembering the girl's earlier sentence. He should sit still and wait.

But why did he feel uncomfortable seeing the girl waving her hand and wincing in pain?

Ashley had no one but herself to blame for this pain, but he aimed her anger at the poor faultless red king.

Ashley stared dagger at Chu Jung, but only tears filled her eyes made something from the young red king's inside a snap.

Chu Jung stepped forward towards Ashley with wide and steady steps. He could care less about that girl's opinion toward him as he decided to make the girl feel better.

"W… what are you doing?" Ashley couldn't react when Chu Jung suddenly took her right hand and held it tightly.

Bzzt! Whoosh!

"Ah, that's the signal. We must free Vectis now."

Chu Jung grabbed Ashley's hand and lifted her body onto Alpha's back without waiting for Ashley's response. Ashley was too shocked to be speechless. She didn't even have time to argue or struggle because now, Chu Jung had sat behind her, and Alpha had gone like lightning.

And then, her eyes glanced at her right hand.

How strange, how come it doesn't painful now?

"Wait here." came the flat statement from Chu Jung stated after helping Ashley unmount Alpha as soon as they arrived at a building that looked uninhabited.

After confirming that Alpha would protect Ashley, Chu Jung sprinted toward Yuna's Vectis, who was still sitting up straight with his eyes closed.

As soon as Chu Jung reached a certain distance, he activated his power, and instantly both his palms flashed red flames.

Chu Jung grips the imana-retaining confinement with both hands. One held the stake on the right, while the other had the left side.

The fire spread and burned the wood in an instant, making Vectis feel the heat around him.

Vectis's eyelids opened to see who had helped him break his confinement wood. An eyebrow raised when he saw a red-haired human had destroyed the wood.

What is the red king doing here? Does that mean the blue king and the others managed to break into this world?

"Where are the others?" Vectis unceremoniously asked Chu Jung.

"They're at…." Chu Jung didn't have time to finish his sentence when Vectis had teleported to exactly where Ashley and Alpha were waiting.

Ashley didn't expect Vectis to appear in front of her eyes and was astonished.

"Miss Ashley, thank goodness you're safe. Where is Miss Chleo?"

"She… Chleo is with the blue king."

Vectis heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Ashley's answer. He had been concerned about Chleo this past two days.

He had been gone for a week, and the groceries in his place must have run out. He was afraid that the two humans would starve or even go out to find food.

Finally, he could rest easy because currently Chleo was with the blue king, and he no longer had to worry about the safety of his blessed child's future sister-in-law.

"Chu Jung, the yellow king needs you." Alpha noticed the Vectis surrounded Harmonie, and all of them used the fire element to corner Harmonie.

Harmonie was not in a favorable condition even though she could survive. The primary source of her strength was the wind. If her opponent uses fire against her, the wind element would do nothing but boost her opponent's fire element.

She wouldn't die, but sooner or later, the Vectis would take Harmonie in custody once the Gale Master exhausted her energy.

Even though Bai Yu was there to assist Harmonie, the Vectis still outnumbered them.

"I will help her. Alpha, you take them back to the blue king's place."

Alpha nodded once, and then Chu Jung ran after Harmonie. Alpha and Vectis were ready to leave, but Ashley refused to budge from her position.

"I don't want to leave before Moni and the boy get here."

"They'll be fine."

"How can you be sure?" Ashley felt a little irritated because it seemed that the red wolf didn't care about his master's life at all.

"Because they are the rulers of nature."

"As I recall, the rulers of nature are no match for Vectis' power. Don't you remember? They barely could escape from the crowd of those one-horned and a few of two-horned Vectis. Now they are surrounded by two-horned Vectis, and you planned to leave them?"

"..." Alpha couldn't refute it because that was the truth.

"Miss Ashley, what they fear is the power of our lightning. We couldn't activate our lightning element if the rulers of nature had no guilt. So you don't have to worry."

Ashley no longer argued or fought back, but she still insisted on not leaving the two realm lords to fight alone.

"Okay. How about we go down the mountain first? You won't survive if you stay here any longer than this."

In the end, Vectis took Alpha and Ashley away from this settlement and went down the mountain.

Ashley inhaled as much air as she could once she felt the air around her was much cooler than before.

Even though she didn't like it because she had to leave Chu Jung and Chleo's cousin behind, she still cooperated with the Vectis's decision.

Ashley would be a burden if she fell unconscious up there.

Vectis sat cross-legged and closed his eyes to concentrate on gathering imana. Now that there was no imana-retaining wood, he could freely restore his imana while awaiting the arrival of the two rulers of the realms.

On the other hand, Alpha lay under a shady tree and closed his eyes. He communicated with Luna, who was with Max and Chleo, to inform them of the progress of their search.

Both Alpha and Vectis were carefree and untroubled, as if they were on vacation in a quiet place.

Only Ashley couldn't calm down.

No one knew how many times she walked back and forth past the two legendary creatures. The sound of her footsteps tapping the leaves and the ground was enough to distract Vectis and Alpha, who were trying to rest their eyelids.

Although disturbed, but none of them grumbled nor reprimanded the girl.
