The Black Mist Enchantress - Chapter 148
Watching Emmy storming out of the courtyard fuming made Byron more worried. However, whatever she said made sense, they were overlooking the major problem.
The infusion of the two powers could only be the reason for Alex’s predicament but how was it possible ?
” The only thing which we can be sure of now is that our little miss is alive and might be even in the vicinity of Vilmonark. When the sorceress tried to attack Alex, Miss could have intervened in order to safeguard him.”
All listened as the elder Lathodore made the conclusion but still it was purely guess from his side.
” If Miss is nearby then why can’t she show herself in front of us? Doesn’t she care about us even a little bit?”
Elder Rotrigues was the next closest to their princess after Shawn, he knew how caring and naive she was before the whole fiasco happened.
” Let us not waste anymore time. Send the undershade guards immediately to search all corners of VilmonArk. Also, search for any person who had an accident in recent days. Do a shady search and do not alert any geezers of the other clans.”
Miandrake instructed the team and others took action straight. Elder Lathore and Rotrigues were given the responsibility of finding the power sources while Miandrake and Byron took the initiative to cure Alex. Neshag and Galstorie were instructed to safeguard the whole clan from meeting the hidden enemies.
Although heartbroken, Emmy had the concise to think straightly and calm down her emotions after she vented her anger at the elders as well as Byron. She teamed up with elder Miandrake to create medications for Janet. Her case was totally opposite to that of Alex, she was externally and internally torn apart from the blast and the attack.
Gabriella knew how serious was Emmy when it came to her friends and she in fact was a bit envious of it. She never had any friends and those who had faked to care for her were only for benefits. She simply smiled and took the mortar in which the fresh ingredients were ready to be crushed.
” The roots of Echinacea and the petals of Chamomile could do the additional healing.” Gabriella reported to Emmy who was going through various medicinal texts. Emmy looked up to see a big bellied woman, quietly looking at the medications.
” Gabriella, that can be used for external healing but the internal injury is what I am worried about. Her body needs to function properly to replenish the amount of blood she has lost.”
” What about we use Radix Angelica Sinensis?”
” You can make it a paste and try to rejuvenate the dead cells. I am wondering what could possibly be done to make her lower half strong. ”
Gabriella pointed to a shelf where she could reach and said, ” Go through those texts at the right side, master once mentioned that it was specially written by our princess but it was all Gibberish to us. We could not understand a word of it.”
Emmy nodded as she collected those texts to return back to her Alex. Just as she passed Gabriella, she said, ” You are also my friend.” and simply walked away.
Gabriella stood stunned for some time and only woke up from the stance when Rasber came to fetch her after work. He saw his little angel was immersed in deep thoughts with tears in her eyes.
” My dear Gaby, who made you cry?”
What he met was, again tears…
Veins popped up in Rasber’s hands as he clenched his fingers together. The last thing he ever wanted to see was her tears, well his woman cried seldomly. She was eight month pregnant but her emotions were still at place.
Seeing her husband’s worried expression, Gabriella could only hug him sideways and let her tears flow on his chest.
” It was Emmy… She said I am also her friend. I am so happy”
Rasber took in a long breath and sighed, his woman had a tough outer shell but a soft plushy heart. Give her a tiny bit of love, she would present a whole world in return. He could understand well what made her like that. What she had experienced and those mockeries made her create an impenetrable exterior but he was lucky enough to drill through it. He was really thankful to that Salian brat for letting him this wonderful woman.
“Shhh… She had already seen you as her family, don’t you remember our wedding. Actually she had asked me permission to be our child’s godmother and here you are, simply bawling because she is your friend. ”
Gabreilla laughed and cried at the same time, but now she was more determined to find the cure for Janet.She will cherish their friendship this lifetime.
Emmy returned to Alex’s room where Byron stood silently watching his son lay on the medicinal bed. Alex’s body now started to show burnt patches on the exterior of the skin and had a foul stench throughout his body( smell of decaying flesh).
Emmy did not speak nor paid attention to Byron standing there. She put the texts in her hands on the table and sat near the bed. She stroked Alex’s hair carefully. She kissed him on his cheeks but warm tears soon rushed out from her eyes.
Byron could not watch it anymore, he knew what Emmy was feeling right now but as he remembered what the wild beast could do to her once he woke up, Byron hesitated.
” Child, I know you love him so much, but he won’t remember you once he wakes up.. The wild beast is impossible to tame and it would always attack the most loved one of its host body. He shall possess Alex completely, even his memories, so it would be hard for you.”
Emmy looked at Byron and sighed, she knew … she remembered everything that had happened but she was selfish for his love.So she was ready to endure anything to be a part of his life.
Just as Emmy wanted to reply, Mike suddenly rushed inside.
” Emmy, that guy is awake, we tortured him in numerous ways but he is not saying a word. Jordan asked me to call you for further interrogation.”
Emmy stood and bowed to Byron. Just when both of them were going to exit the room, they heard Byron’s voice.
” Kill him without mercy.”
Emmy walked away without turning back with Mike but those words were ringing in her ears.
” Yes, kill him without mercy. The enemy should know what will happen if they dare to touch anyone from the Esbertrazian clan again.”
Emmy voiced her feelings to Mike and he also agreed. In the prison cell, Demetrick was tortured to the extreme but he did not say a word. Just as Houlson was going to whip him again, Emmy entered the scene.
” Whenever I meet you, why are you battered to the extent that I could kill you by lifting my pinky finger huh.”
Although Emmy was the only woman present inside the dark creepy prison cell, her dominance could easily shadow the manly presence inside.
” I shall never help you, so just lift your what-so-ever finger and finish me once in for all.”
Emmy scoffed but as Houlson got the whip ready, she took it from him and lashed it straight to Demetrick’s heart. The whip as if it danced to the air, straight away made a thud sound and next scene was Demetrcik vomiting blood and falling on the ground.
One shot, instant kill.
The undershade guards were shocked from the powerful attack but they were so proud of their clan again. Even the woman of their clan was so powerful to kill in such a style. The five women had already motivated their womankind of the whole Esbertrazian clan; whenever they practised their skills, the audience were the majority of the younger generation.
” Hang his body near the entrance of the VilmonArk, make sure to note who all are coming to take note of the body.The message shall be passed successfully to the enemy.”.
The guards did as they were instructed by Emmy, the whole VilmonArk was shocked by the way the Esbertrazian clan had showcased their power. As Emmy had predicted,the enemy took the bait soon leaving traces to be caught.
Soon news was delivered along with sketches to the Ludacris family, grandfather Ludacris could not believe the sketch he saw. The once perfect face was completely torn and disfigured but he was able to identify the person. His mate and close friend, left hand man of the sorceress, Demetrick.
Grandfather Ludacris crumpled the parchment as rage filled his eyes. The only hope he had was destroyed. This clarified why Talsha lost her consciousness yesterday, so it meant the seal had been broken, the Zucathore heir had stepped into their lair to free his father.
” Alexandrian Zucathore, if I do not avenge my mate, my name is not Phelixtros Ludaris.”
