42 Chapter 42: The Queen is in Danger

The police, as well as the ambulance, arrived soon. They took Emy to the hospital in critical condition. Jasmin called Emy’s father but could not reach Reed. They also did not know where he had gone. Jasmin and Avery, as well as Emy’s father, stood outside the operation room.

Emy’s father sat down and walked back and forth a few times. They’ve been waiting for Emy to leave the surgery room for several hours.

“Why don’t you rest first, Tatay?” Jasmin asked.

Eddie shifted his gaze to Jasmin. “I won’t be relieved until I know whether my child is safe, Jasmin.”

Avery was continually sobbing. It astonished Eddie when Avery abruptly rose and approached him at the operating room door. It surprised Eddie when Avery knelt.

“Tatay, I’m sorry...” said Avery as she knelt down.

“Avery, hija, what are you doing?” Emy’s father asked. “Would you please stand there?”

“I’m responsible for Miss Emy being in that room.” “I’m sorry,” Avery apologized.

“Haist,” Eddie said as he seized both of Avery’s arms and make her stand up. He assisted her in standing up. “You’re not to blame, Avery.”

.....

“Right. It was the fault of the man who pretended to be our customer.” Jasmin said.

“Don’t be worried, okay?” Eddie said. “Please, just support me in praying.”

Avery brushed her tears away and turned to face Jasmin, who was still tapping her phone.

The number you dialed is not yet in service.

“Haist, where has Sir gone?” Jasmin asked.

Meanwhile, Reed was standing at the portal. His armies’ shadow demons were ahead of him. Five miles distant, all the generals were surrounded, and no one could enter the portal without going through Reed’s unit. Reed received word that the generals were busy repressing vampires in the south as well as the west. Reed took a deep breath.

“My King, there are also vampires in the east and north,” said a shadow demon.

Reed simply nodded.

Eldron was surprised when he heard a knock from his room. He stands at the window and observes the lights from the conflict between Reed and the vampires in his room.

“Come in,” Eldron said.

Eldron glanced around when the door opened. Maria approached him and came to a halt about a meter away from Eldron.

“I’m sorry, my king...” Maria apologized.

Eldron chuckled. “I am not your king anymore, Maria.”

“I found there’s a battle going on between King Reed and the vampires, however...” Maria explained.

“However, what?” Eldron asked.

“The Queen is in danger,” Maria said.

“What exactly did you say?” Eldron and Devin both said at the same moment.

Devin moved closer to Eldron, bowed gently, and turned to face Maria. “How is she in danger?” Devin asked. “Has a vampire ever returned to the realm of the lower classes?”

“The queen was stabbed, and her life is in danger,” Maria explained.

Eldron looked at Devin and then at Maria. “I know what’s going through your head, Uncle. You can’t do it.” Devin said.

“But King Reed wants to know what happened to...” said Maria.

“Maria!” Devin’s voice became loud. “Think about it: what would Reed do if he discovered the queen was in danger and now he’s in the middle of a war?”

Maria and Eldron did not respond. When Devin said that, they both became silent. “When he leaves his post, vampires can enter the portal, and what do you think will happen next, huh? There will be a lot of trouble. ”

“In that case, what are we going to do with the queen?” Eldron asked. “You know Reed, Devin. If we do not help the Queen, he will likewise cause problems. ”

“I can help,” Devin said. Maria turned to gaze at Devin, then at Reed.

—-

Emy was in the intensive care unit when Maria and Devin arrived. No one was permitted to enter the intensive care unit. Eddie, Avery, and Jasmin were standing outside the room when Maria saw them.

Devin moved his gaze to the window and approached Maria. “I want you to leave,” Devin said.

“I can’t leave the queen...” Maria said.

“If you don’t go, the queen will perish,” Devin said.

Maria fixed her gaze on Devin. He doesn’t know Devin’s personality, so if she pushes too hard, Emy will be killed, and she’ll be the first to blame Reed.

“Well, if you don’t want me to leave, I will,” Devin said.

“No,” Maria said. “I must depart, Prince Devin.”

Devin remained silent, and Maria abruptly vanished from his sight. Devin approached Emy, who was sleeping on the bed. There is a lot of equipment and pipes around the bed and in Emy’s mouth. Devin moved closer to Emy. He began by looking at her face. Devin’s lips curled into a gentle smile.

Vampires emerge from the south, east, west, and north practically in sequence. Reed is surrounded by fifty demon shadows, all of whom are engaged in war with the vampires. Reed grabbed one of them by the neck and hurled it at the other vampire, then rapidly unleashed black smoke on his other hand and used it to kill the vampires. The other vampires rush fast to exact their vengeance on Reed. Eldrick is an elite vampire, one of many in the realm below him.

Eldrick’s brother, Anton, took up the role he had vacated. “Perhaps you still remember me, King Reed,” Anton said.

Reed smiled. “Why not? ”

Anton charged toward Reed, attempting to knock him down with powerful kicks and punches, but Reed was able to repel him. Reed took hold of Anton’s arm.

“Are you coming for me to exact vengeance? But why bring in so many allies?” Reed asked. He smirked. “I see you’re frightened.”

“I’m not frightened of you,” Anton said. He kicked Reed in the stomach, prompting Reed to release him.

“Do you have any idea what your excellent brother did?” He harmed my wife, my queen.” Reed said.

“You’re not telling the truth!” Anton said. “First and foremost, you don’t have a queen, and even if you have, Eldrick will not touch her.”

“My queen dwells in the other world and is a victim of Eldrick. I can’t forgive what your brother did,” Reed said.

“And you really kill him?” Anton enraged asked.

“Yes,” Reed said.

Reed emitted a black smoke that wrapped around Anton’s torso and hovered in the air. “If you don’t want to be like your brother, go back to your place, and I’ll disregard what occurred,” Reed explained.

Reed hurled Anton, who collided with a boulder in the distance. Reed teleported back to Anton and grabbed him around the neck. He teleported across the rock where Anton had collided. He floated Anton into the air, which was encircled by black smoke, using such black smoke.

“Listen, everyone,” Reed said loudly, breaking up the fight. Everyone’s gaze was drawn to him. “Your leader has something to say.”

Anton turned to face Reed. He couldn’t move because of the black fog that encompassed him. “Will you surrender or will I slaughter you in front of your comrades?” Reed asked.

Anton gulped. Reed has always been renowned for being impatient. Even before he became king, he was known for his strength and ruthlessness in dispatching any demons in his path. He didn’t like him ever since. Others adore it, but he regards it with arrogance.

“You’re wearing down my patience, Anton,” Reed said.

Anton felt black smoke embracing his body and crawling up his neck.

“Coven,” Anton yelled. “We accept defeat.”

Reed’s lips curved into a smirk as Anton clenched his fist.

Devin locked his gaze on Emy as she gradually opened her eyes. He grinned because Emy was gazing at him.

“Hey,” Devin said.

Emy had no idea who the attractive man standing in front of her was. He smiled at her as if he knew who she was. The man’s face looked familiar, but she couldn’t place him.

“What is your name?” Emy asked. “What am I doing here?” ”

“Oh, you’re in the hospital and on the verge of death,” Devin explained. “And the good news is that I save you.”

Emy blinked many times while gazing at the man, saying, “I remember you. You were the man at the resort that night.”

“Wow, that’s impressive. “You definitely remember me,” Devin replied, smiling.

“What is your name?” Emy asked.

“Why do you have to know?” Devin asked.

“Because you said you save me,” Emy said.

“I have saved you, that’s the truth,” Devin said. “No one will save you, so I have no choice.”

Devin brought his face close to Emy’s, then he whispered in her ear. “I think you need to calm your dad down. He is anxious about you. ”

Emy looked at the man as he turned his face away from her. “I better leave before Reed catches up with me.”

Devin started walking out the door. “Wait, do you know Reed?” Emy asked.

Devin didn’t answer. It ignored her either. When Reed came out of the door, he heard a noise from outside. Later, her father entered with Avery and Jasmin.
