The Priestess Of Rodona - Chapter 110 Chapter 110
“They are fine, trust me.” Tam tried to calm Mala down as always, but he hasn’t been that successful with only his words. She continued to struggle as hard as she could, and Tam was getting antsier as she might hit something that she was not supposed to do.
“Stop. Careful now,” He whispered, as he tightened his hold on her waist while his other hand was used to stop her other leg from moving.
Tam squeezed her tight, before he continued to speak, “They are protected by Elvire, remember? So when the smoke has disappeared completely, we can go up and see that they are still there, okay?”
After hearing this, Mala finally calmed down, but she wanted to be still free from his hold that was starting to give her a weird yearning. “Let go,” She demanded.
“You won’t run there if I let you go, right?” He asked seriously. His wife was still looking like she would start heading to the danger as soon as he let his guard down.
Mala looked at Tam’s face, with a pout. “Yes. I don’t lie.” She said grumpily. So he did let go. However, as soon as he did, Mala went to the nearest clans’ men around and ignored Tam completely.
Tam, didn’t know what to do. He was left there standing completely alone while Mala started to tend the small injuries that some of her clans people had gotten.
At the upper floor…
The energy around Elvire had gotten stronger and stronger. It was almost unbearable even for those who were only just standing around.
Suddenly, all of the energy exploded, destroying the whole church.
After seeing this destruction, the soldiers that were still alive started to panic immediately. There were boulders more massive as them flying in the air and smashing down at unbelievable speed.
Even the devil had backed out from the fight and had to cast a protective barrier around him.
Some of the unlucky ones that weren’t quick enough to escape were crushed by the boulders, while the even more unlucky ones were hit by tiny pebbles. Though the pebbles were tiny, if it hit someone multiple times, it would make them unable to move, with full consciousness. All they could do was curse their luck.
The Cardinal used this chance to break the magical tool. This tool had immediately teleport him away from the scene.
However, just before the teleportation would be done, a pebble came through the portal with the Cardinal. The pebble continued its trace on the head church and immediately smashed an important religious relic as if it was its goal for the beginning.
While the church had experienced a lot of damage, on the other hand, the people around Elvire only have minor injuries.
Levin and Jaana, even when they were in the middle of the blast, were protected by the barrier that the devil had cast and also by Elvire.
Even though they were fine, they were the only ones who knew about it.
Mala, at this time, after hearing the explosion, she wanted to run there and help, but Tam stopped her. She then started screaming and kicking Tam, even cursing that he didn’t let her go and to save Levin and Jaana.
She had a massive breakdown. Mala could only think of their bodies and the possibility that she won’t be able to see even a corpse for being too late.
Seeing her like this, Tam had no choice but to knock her out.
His gaze then shifted to the elder, “I will leave her to you for now while I go to see the situation up there,” Tam said as he handed Mala over to the elder.
“Good luck, and I hope everything goes smoothly.” The elder said without noticing that his skills in the language had gotten even better than it was before.
“Ah, the most exciting thing happened now.” The devil said, knowing that he had at least succeeded in one of his tasks.
“We are fortunate as guessing from that blast radius she is really close. She is strong and maybe even a pure-blooded one.” The devil was muttering to himself while he was trying to clear as much of the soldiers on the ground so that they couldn’t disturb Elvire anymore. He was starting to like his task even. With the way the girl blasted the church, it seemed it wouldn’t be too hard for him to convince her to work for them.
He could not help but glance at the damage that was done after the powerful explosion. It was even done by someone who was not awake yet.
What if she can completely control it?
How strong could she be if she matures further?
He could not help think and commented at the same time, “Really strong! This is wonderful!” The devil muttered, his eyes glinting with happiness, “I was fortunate to get here just in the time. If that stupid Cardinal would have disturbed her the slightest, our whole plan, maybe most of the earth would have been gone.” The devil continued to mutter as he was crushing a soldier’s skull with his bare hands.
The devil hummed, “Hmm, but what should I do now? What should I do? The girl has awakened her powers as planned, but how can I get her to side with us? What other ways do I have than the seduction?” The devil just muttered with a frown as he cleaned up his suit from all of the dust and blood. He wanted to look presentable.
After that, he looked at the church while thinking about the best way to introduce himself.
As the first impression was the most important thing, and he thought that his actions thus far haven’t been the best. Aside from the part of protecting the people that obviously were worried about the girl. ‘Ah! That should be enough. Human gratitude!’ The devil smiled, feeling satisfied.
^At the church^
When Tam got back to the surface, he saw how the church that once had stood up as the only remaining building up in the town was no more.
There was just rubble, and some larger stone boulders all over the place, and the stained glass that was once the most beautiful artwork at the school was shattered all over the place.
He already feared the worst when he saw the condition of the church as he couldn’t believe that no one could have survived from a blast this huge.
