Chapter 9

“The obstacles in the castle’s surrounding area?” I repeated her words like a parrot. How much more complicated and screwed up could this mission become? As if it wasn’t enough that I had to fight one of the oldest and most dangerous dark watchers, there was more? Obstacles before the castle?

“There are three, like in all good fairytales,” Michael said.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a second! Can’t you just teleport me to the castle? Why in the surrounding area?” I asked, trying my best to understand their logic.

“The castle’s enchanted. Actually, the whole area is,” Michael said.

“Yes, we’ve tried several times, but each attempt got worse,” Raphael agreed.

“Once, we ended up in the center of Paris in daylight. Another time, the protective spells threw us in a cave with a fierce dragon inside. It was high in the mountains of Scotland,” Shiva added.

“Yes, the spells he put around the castle are like a giant bubble barricade, and they trigger some insane cross-magic teleportation so we never know where we might be redirected,” Raphael said. Seeing my face sulk, he reassured me. “Don’t worry, we’ll guide and help you up to the castle’s garden.”

“Yes, Loki and I will go with the girl,” Enki said, rubbing his hands against one another with gusto. I could see his excitement. Maybe he hadn’t visited the earthly plane for centuries, like Loki.

“And yet, won’t you tell me what those obstacles are? I’ll most certainly need my enchanted weapons, Lily and the chakram—” I couldn’t finish because Loki’s voice cut me off.

“You named your weapon, Lily?” he asked incredulously.

“It’s an enchanted knife,” I said defensively. I’d once mentioned how I named my enchanted knife to my ex-boyfriend, Marc, and he’d made fun of it. I didn’t want that happening again. Not here.

Loki chuckled. “I like this girl more and more! Bravo, Damian. For once, you’ve chosen a funny person,” he said as his face beamed with delight. I squinted my eyes. I really wish I knew if this weirdo was making fun of me or having fun with me? I had to watch out for him. He stood up, drawing nearer to my seat. His magic palpitated in the air, swirling and dancing around my aura. It had the taste of a bubbly champagne. His signature came across as light and playful, and yet, there was a hint of hidden power and aggressiveness ready to unleash and slap me in the face when I least expected it.

“Love, we’ll provide you with whatever enchanted weapons and items you need. Alternatively, we could teleport you home, but we’ll lose unnecessary time. It’s already October in the human world,” Durga said, pursing her lips.

I gaped, staring at her. “Pardon? It’s October? How come?”

Damian flashed me a silent glance, the “I told you so” look.

“Time runs much faster here than in the three-dimensional world,” Michael clarified. “We’re running out of time, so we ought to cut to the chase and teleport you the closest we can to the castle, ASAP.”

“Yes, it’s true.
