The Beauty And The Wolf - Chapter 178
Dimitri was back in Laswich Mountain in no time.
The ladies were having a conversation in the kitchen during that time.
Dimitri appeared in the middle of the kitchen to the surprise of the ladies. “Sorry for interrupting your conversation, girls. I need to take Sabrina with me for a moment, it’s urgent!” he said, he then looked at Sabrina. “I found Ivy and her brother! But Edward is dying, he needs your blood, ASAP!” he said.
Stunned, Sabrina can only utter a gasp. “Whaaaaat?”
Everything happened so fast that both Dimitri and Sabrina vanished from the kitchen in the blink of an eye.
Azere and Olga looked at each other in confusion.
“W-what’s going on?” Azere asked in bafflement.
“Who is this Ivy and Edward? It’s the first time I heard their names,” Olga asked, confused.
“Me too… Anyways, we will know about them once Sabrina is back here,” Azere said and continued cleaning the sink.
Olga resumed slicing the fish on the chopping board.
Meanwhile…
A thousand miles away.
Dimitri and Sabrina already landed inside the cave and they wasted no time.
Sabrina willingly cut her hand with the sharp knife and placed her hand above Edward’s mouth which was forcefully opened by Dimitri. Her blood is now tricking into Edward’s mouth.
Teary-eyed, Ivy watched them in tears, extremely worried about her brother’s life. She is not feeling well, her body was drained of energy and strength. But once she can have a good rest for several days, she will be fine. It’s her brother that she was worried about. Fresh tears fell on her face.
Sabrina looked at Ivy, she looked so weak. “Ivy, close your eyes and sleep. Don’t worry, we will try our best to save Edward. Don’t worry, okay?”
Ivy nodded her head. “Thank you,” she said, feeling grateful that Sabrina didn’t hesitate to come to save her brother once again. She looked at her brother one last time then shut her eyes to sleep as darkness claimed her consciousness.
Half an hour later.
With continuous blood transfusion, Edward’s pale skin finally gained some color, and his breathing stabilized.
Sabrina looked at the guardian and asked, “How is he?”
“His body is reacting positively to your blood. You can rest for now. Later, we will transfuse more blood to him again if needed. Let’s just observe his condition first and then allow his body to recover and get used to the healing effect of your blood for a few hours,” Dimitri replied.
“Okay,” Sabrina said.
“Give me your hand. I’ll cure your wound to stop the blood from flowing,” Dimitri ordered.
Sabrina extended her hand to him.
Dimitri placed his hands on her wound, the cut on her skin as well the blood vanished a few minutes later.
Sabrina looked at the guardian. “If I finally become a full pledge guardian, will I have the same power as you?” she asked curiously.
Dimitri nodded his head and replied, “Yes. The ability to teleport, levitate in the air, and cure wounds, is just one of the powers you will enjoy later. You can gain more power when you finish your training.”
“Nice!” Sabrina gushes. “Is it worth it being a guardian?” she asked again.
“Of course! You can protect yourself, your loved ones, and other people as well. With great power comes great responsibility. When the world needs saving from evil people and creatures, it’s the guardian’s job to side with the good and eliminates bad people. Guardians are trained to protect the world from all types of evil,” Dimitri elaborated further.
A frown appeared on Sabrina’s face. “But why does the medallion have to keep changing its guardian? Why not stick with just one person until eternity?” she asked.
“Because bad people and evil creatures are many to count and they are hiding in the dark waiting for that one final day to create great havoc on earth. The more guardians we have around the greater our chances of protecting the world. The previous guardians are stationed all over the world to unite and come together when the need arises. Do you understand now?” Dimitri said.
Sabrina nodded her head. “I do!”
“Good!” Dimitri said. “Go to rest beside your friend. I’ll check this cave thoroughly and eliminate any dangers lurking in the dark,” he said and left the chamber.
Sabrina lay her body down beside Ivy. She was happy that she found her friend again. She shut her eyes to sleep.
Meanwhile…
Back in Laswich Mountain.
Azere was pacing back and forth on the floor.
Olga was sewing the tear on her clothes on the sofa nearby. “Why are you worried?” she asked.
“It’s been a few hours already and Sabrina hasn’t returned yet,” Azere said.
“We heard that the boy named Edward was dying, which means Sabrina and the guardian must be very busy saving the boy’s life. I’m sure that is the reason why Sabrina is still out there somewhere. Don’t forget, the medallion and the almighty guardian are with her, your girl is well protected,” Olga mentioned, hoping to lessen Azere’s worry about the well-being of her charge.
Azere released a sigh of relief and nodded her head. “You got a valid point. I’m worrying for nothing,” she finally said and lowered herself to the sofa.
Olga finished sewing her clothes. She rose to her feet. “I’m going to visit my place and your hut. I’ll harvest some vegetables in the garden there as well,” she said.
“Okay, go ahead,” Azere responded.
Olga went to her room. A few minutes later she emerged from the door and said, “I’ll go now…”
Azere nodded her head.
Olga vanished from the house.
A few moments later.
Olga appeared in the area near the cave in her invisible form. She looked at the cave for a few seconds and then continued walking towards Azere’s hut.
When she was near the hut, she saw two men sitting on the wooden chair under the shade of the tree located near the front door.
Her brows knitted together, who are they? When she was only a few meters away, she finally recognized them, it was the wolf and his brother!
Sabrina’s boyfriend is back!
She halted in her tracks and pondered for a moment. What is Rhett doing here?
Sabrina told them that she and the guardian already brought Rhett back to his family in the Golden Peak Valley. But why is the wolf here?
Hmm…
What to do?
Ah, she would just leave for now and visit her place first then she will come back later.
She left the area and teleported to her place.
Meanwhile…
Rhett and his older brother Edmund were talking about Sabrina. Rhett already explained everything to his brother.
Edmund took a deep breath and asked, “Do you think Sabrina will come today? Where do you think she is right now?”
Rhett was shaking his head. “Honestly, I have no idea…” he said in a dispirited voice.
“You mentioned that she was going to train in the trading ground for fifty years. Do you know that place? We might as well go there to find her than just wait here,” Edmund suggested.
Rhett shook his head. “I have no idea where that place is…” he said in a depressed voice.
Edmund pitied his brother, he’s looking like a beaten man right now. He patted Rhett’s shoulder. “Alright, let’s just wait and spend the night here if needed. Maybe, Sabrina will visit this place tomorrow or one of these days. Good thing we decided to bring some clothes with us,” he said.
“Thank you, bro. I appreciate your company,” Rhett said.
“Don’t mention it. Can you open the door of the house? I will put our clothes inside, then I’ll find some food to cook for lunch and dinner,” Edmund requested.
“Okay,” Rhett answered gloomily. “There are some poultry in the backyard and also vegetables in the garden. Just take anything that caught your fancy,” he said.
“Great!” Edmund said. “Leave everything to me…”
The men climbed the stairs and entered the hut.
A few moments later.
Rhett exited the door and returned to his spot, mulling about Sabrina and her sudden disappearance.
Edmund explored the interior of the hut.
After exploring the house, he exited through the backdoor in the kitchen and found himself in the garden.
One hour later, Olga is back in Azere’s hut.
She was hovering in the air surveying the sight below her. She saw Rhett sitting on the wooden chair lost in his thoughts, while his older brother was busy catching some chickens in the backyard.
She’s still undecided if she should show herself to Rhett or not?
Hmm…
Ah! She should go back to Laswich Mountain first and inform Sabrina and Azere that Rhett is back in the hut accompanied by his brother.
She quickly teleports back home.
A few minutes later.
Olga arrived in Laswich Mountain. She landed in the living room. “Hello, I’m back! Anybody home?” she asked.
“I’m in the kitchen, making tea,” Azere replied.
Olga went to the kitchen. “Guess what-?” she said.
Azere’s brows are knitted together. “What-? My house vanished from the forest?” she joked
“Not that! Take a guess who I found there?” Olga continued.
A frown appeared on Azere’s face. “You found new tenants living there?”
“No! Not new tenants!” Olga shook her head.
“Then who else?” Azere asked.
“It’s no other than the wolf! Rhett is currently in your hut together with his older brother!” Olga finally spilled the beans.
“Oh…” Azere said softly. “Sabrina is not back yet…”
“I see…” Olga murmured as she lowered herself into the chair. “I pity the wolf, he looks distraught,” she added.
Azere made another cup of tea and served it to her housemate. “What are they doing in there?” she asked.
“Rhett was looking absent-minded, staring at the horizon, wearing a blank stare while his brother was busy catching some chicken in the backyard. I guess they will be staying in the hut for the night, probably waiting for Sabrina to visit the area,” Olga said while sipping her tea.
Azere released a deep sigh. “I pity the couple so much, they should not be separated from each other!” she blurted sadly.
“That’s right!” Olga nodded her head in agreement with Azere’s statement. ‘I want to be the next guardian of the medallion, too bad the medallion doesn’t like me,’ she murmured to herself.
Azere looked at Olga. “What did you say?” she asked.
Olga shook her head.. “Nothing.”
