His Witch Queen-Chapter 174: Display of powers!

Alice had come back to meet the person, whom her father told her. She followed General Shane and found out that her father wasn’t alone.

In fact, there were two more people with him. Prince Cyrus and another old man,whom she had no familiarity with in her life.

Holding her shawl very tightly, Alice walked ahead to come by his side. She looked at Cyrus with amused eyes. In response to her gaze, he too passed her a confusion filled sight.

Returning her head back to see her father, she asked him, "Father, you called me? Is there something serious?"

Until now, she was facing her father’s back. Now, when her father turned, she came across and saw him slightly worried.

There was a long frown on his forehead. A trace of worry in those glittering eyes. "Alice, I have called him here because there is something he can tell you better."

"Something?" Alice wasn’t in the mood to understand. With the same, her sight traveled and to find that the old man was also looking in her direction. The gaze was a bit annoyed but she appeared to be calm.

"May I Know you...?" Alice asked, but she found that the old forestman was seeing her with a similar gaze. She was undoubtedly fearing who the man was. But it didn’t make her shutter anymore, "Alice, he is Forex."

King Vilas took the initiative to answer and burst her questions, "He has been living in the forest for some time now. He knows about various techniques and powers."

ALICE gave the nod on understanding, "Nice to meet you but may I know, why does he wish to see me?" Alice asked again, as she was filled with indifferent kinds of doubts.

In her mind, she knows that her father will not do any action, until there is some hidden motive behind him too. Whereas, Cyrus had stayed behind to observe everything. Noticing how the old man actually saw his wife, made him slightly alarmed.

But in response to his vibes, he could see that King Vilas had passed him an assured blink. ’Who can this man be?’ it was still suspicious, rising over his chin.

But the old forest man had taken a step close to Alice. His eyes didn’t tear away from Alice for a few seconds, feeling that face almost identical, "You know..you are very much the same as your mother."

"Those eyes, nose, hair..everything. Your features are like your mother’s." Forex commented and this made Alice’s brows lift, "How come you know my mother?"

"She was my soul sister." he told her honestly and in the back of the head, Alice didn’t take it much into consideration.

She hadn’t met anyone from her mother’s family in her lifetime. It was still a new experience since the old forestman was the first one to come and declare him to be the late Queen’s associate.

"You are mother’s soul brother...Oh..." Alice didn’t bring many expressions.

But this didn’t stop the old man from saying, "Do you wish to know more about your powers and real self, Alice?"

"Powers and real self?"

Alice had questioned back. She was stokely not getting upto what the old forest man took into. The lane was undefined. But she had rested, when the old man said.

"Let me tell you today, what you have hiding beneath this face of yours..."

....

The old man had brought Alice into a big hall. It was covered from the other four sides but on the right, there was a big glass. Giant in size.

Alice was standing in the middle. Firstly, the man brought a table and kept it at a certain distance from her. On top of that, there was a flower vase.

While Cyrus and Alice were still very much in dilemma, they had kept their lips sealed. In their beat of hearts, it was a harder sight to behold.

The old man turned his face to look at Alice, "Don’t be afraid. Just relax and let me prepare."

In response, Alicenodded.

She saw the man named Forex put sand in the circle around lice. She was now standing in the middle of a huge circle made of sand. ’Is there a self made?’

She had tons of the questions but kept her mind at bay.

Finally, Forex had stepped back and asked King Vilas, General Shane and Prince Cyrus to be standing at the end of the room. He didn’t want any harm to fall on their heads.

His warning made Alice cautious, "Wh-what are we going to do now?"

"Something new to apprise you.," Forex replied plainly.

He was standing closer to vase, before he wanted to go back to Alice, "You will have to do a few things. Maybe it will hurt your body but you don’t have to stop. Keep concentrating on what I say and do as per my rules."

"H-How, what is that?" Alice didn’t stop asking questions. "You will know the intensity of the power you possess now." was all Forex replied with.

Alice hesitantly gave approval for the task. She had all he ears tagged at what the old man narrated.

She won’t deny that there was hesitation that crawled under her skin. It was ready to eat her alive right now. But on the other side, Alice can’thelp but feel her mind going through another malfunction.

"You will have to close your eyes and think about this vase. Think as if you are picking this pot from this place and in the air. It will need concentration and focus but don’t open your eyes in the middle."

"I have to think about this vase?’ Alice once agian inquired.

"Yes. Do it now."

Alice took a deep breath. Before, she had exchanged her eyes with her husband. He grew extremely anxious for her. But when they had exchanged the beautiful glance together, Alice knew what exactly was waiting for her now.

In the end, Alice closed her eyes. In the middle of the blackness, she found the vase. Reimagining, she had put all her mind into lifting the pot. She had to imagine the pot being lifted.

In the middle of the task, her brows had changed. They were curved into a frown. It was harder to hold herself to this point.

Her body had been trembling worsley. She could sense her breath getting deeper with every inch. The vase’s picture was entirely clear in her mind till now.

Whereas, Forex hadn’t shown away from till now, "Concentrate. The more energy you use, the more power you gain, Alice." Forex yelled and made Alice increase her pace.

But on the other hand, Cyrus and King Vilas were now awestruck. While king Vilas’s eyes were stuck on Alice, Cyrus had been locking his eyes with the vase. He was keen, with all the internet to see whether his wife will be successful in her task.

And a small voice left in lips, as he can’t help but speak, "T-this...the..va..vase is lifting itself..."
