81 Chapter 81: The Temple

“What are we supposed to do now? We couldn’t get in?”

Reed turned to Devin and then looked around. “Did you see Emy? Do you know where we could find her? And how did she get inside? Does that mean the hooded figure we’re following isn’t a demon?”

“How does that creature have black smoke? How can he get anywhere with his smoke?”

“How can we explain they took Emy inside the temple without his throwing himself out as we did?”

“There are many probable reasons...”

They turned to see that the person they were chasing was wearing a hoodie. It was standing in the distance and looking at them. Reed looked at the hoodie and then ran quickly toward it. The one in the hoodie pulled out a dagger and blocked Reed’s every move. Devin, who was wearing a hoodie, also came in and was about to help Reed with another one. Devin was a little surprised because the two men in hoodies looked like they were twins. They’re both wearing the same clothes. Reed was also surprised. The two people in hoodies rushed towards them. Reed used black smoke to attack the enemy. He tried many times to wrap the smoke around the hooded opponent’s body, but he could avoid it. When he got close, he hit him with a series of punches and kicks, which knocked him down right away. Devin also did the same. He knew how the hoodie moved because he had worn it before.

Reed knew exactly how the hoodie would move when he was attacking. He finally broke into a smile. He let the hoodie get close to him, and when he was about to be stabbed by the demon’s knife, Reed let out his black smoke and wrapped it around the hoodie. It struggles to move but can’t. He grabbed the demon’s knife with the black smoke and lifted it into the air. The person in the hoodie struggled to get away. He tried several times to use the black smoke, but it wouldn’t come out of his hand.

Reed quickly threw the demon’s knife into the air. The guy in the hoodie thought Reed was going to bury it, but he suddenly deflected it and it hit the back of Devin’s opponent, which surprised both Devin and the guy in the hoodie. Reed kept pulling out and plunging the demon’s knife into Devin’s opponent until he fell to the ground.

“Now it’s your turn to...” Reed said and then the demon’s knife flew towards his opponent.

.....

And because the hoodie couldn’t move, the knife hit him in the chest. A scream could be heard, and then it teleported away. The demon’s knife fell to the floor.

Reed went right up to Devin, who took off the mask from the hoodie. Reed didn’t like the idea of knowing that demon.

“Isn’t this Alexander?” Devin asked. Reed said nothing. Alexander was the captain of his army. Where’s his companion?”

“Escaped, but was hurt,” Reed said.

“Did you know who?”

Reed didn’t answer. He looked at Alexander. He clenched his teeth as he blew black smoke from his hand around Alexander’s body. After a few seconds, Alexander’s body caught on fire. Devin immediately stood up and walked away from the dead body.

“What do we do to get Emy out?” Devin asked. “She doesn’t have a phone, so our black smoke can’t get inside that.”

“Get Emy’s father. We need him.” Reed said.

“But her father is sick, and when he finds out what happened to Emy...”

“Just say he needs in the temple again.”

“It seems like you don’t know her father,” Devin said. “I’ll take care of it. Stay here.”

Reed was just standing in front of Alexander’s burning body when Devin left. His jaw dropped because, if he wasn’t mistaken, he thought he had seen someone in a hoodie before. Before he could get away, he had to make sure that was true. Reed suddenly disappeared from in front of the temple.

When Reed got home, he went straight to Maria’s room, but she wasn’t there, so he teleported to the kitchen. But Maria wasn’t there either.

“Did she run away?” Reed thought to himself.

It is already dark outside, and both Emy’s brothers and her father are already sleeping. Reed walked around his house, and as he got close to the swimming pool, he saw Maria. Maria is sitting on the sofa bed.

“Does it hurt?”

Maria looked into the distance and saw Reed. Reed was standing close to the edge of the swimming pool. Both of his fists were clenched as he looked at Maria. Maria got out of her chair.

Maria quickly let out black smoke and rushed at Reed. With that much power, it bounced off the water, making a loud noise.

From Eve’s house, he peered through the window of his room and saw the potent power around Reed’s house.

“W-what is happening?” Eve asked herself.

Dynhir was standing by the window in his room. He could see the powerful forces that surrounded Reed’s entire house. He had a smile on his face as he looked at it.

“Looks like you’ve been caught....” Dynhir said.

Maria quickly tried to hit Reed, but Reed quickly moved out of the way. He used the demon’s knife to float it in the air, and that’s what he used to attack Maria. Every time Reed moves his hand, the black smoke moves along with it and attacks Maria. He has to take Maria seriously.

“Maria, do you like what you did?”

Maria wiped some of the dark liquid on the wound that was on her cheek that she had gotten earlier. Maria said nothing back; instead, she just smiled at Reed. Maria quickly attacked Reed and tried to keep the demon’s knife, which could kill her, away from her. But Reed was as strong as he thought he would be. When a powerful force hit him in the stomach, he flew, hit the wall, and fell to the grass. Reed quickly got close to Maria and choked her while his black smoke tied her whole body together. Then he used one hand to squeeze Maria’s wound.

“Ahhh!” Maria yelled out loud.

“You deserved it because you betrayed your king.”

Maria said nothing. Instead, she used the black smoke to send the demon’s knife flying into the air. Maria quickly let go of the knife, and it hit her in the throat. Maria burned up little by little until all that was left of her was ashes.

Jasmin went into the temple. It surprised her when Devin suddenly came to her room and knocked on the door. He told her she had to go to the temple to pick up Emy, so she went with him. He grabbed her, and in the blink of an eye, they were facing a temple. It’s good that she is wearing proper sleepwear. Even though she was wondering what happened and how Devin did it, she didn’t ask first. His face is serious, so she’ll ask later. Jasmin looked for Emy in the temple. There was no one inside, so Jasmin had a hard time looking. She thought she opened all the doors to the rooms there as part of the search.

Meanwhile, Reed got there. Devin turned to look at him.

“What happened?”

Devin noticed Reed had a wound that was slowly healing.

“I killed the rat. Anyway, where’s Emy? Who was inside?”

“Jasmin, she’s looking for her,” Devin said. “It has been 15 minutes since she came in.”

Later, Jasmin went out with Emy. Jasmin helps Emy. Emy is holding her stomach while her other hand is on Jasmin’s shoulder. They move slowly as if they are feeling something.

Reed and Devin ran up to the two as soon as they got out of the temple and were a little way away. Reed instantly hugged Emy, so Jasmin let her go. But Emy lost consciousness. When Reed picked her up, they saw her wound was bleeding.

“Let’s take her to the hospital,” Jasmin said.

Devin grabs Jasmin and Reed, and they suddenly vanish in front of the temple.

When Emy got to the hospital, she was taken in right away, given blood, and her wound was stitched. Because the wound was so deep, it needed 12 stitches.

Devin was standing at the foot of the bed, and Reed was on the other side of the room. Jasmin was sitting on the chair next to the bed.

“Don’t worry about her. He’s fine,” Jasmin said. “Well, I guess I can now ask...”

Reed raised his eyebrows and then looked at Jasmin. “Sir, you asked for my help several times, but I don’t remember what happened after that. It isn’t fair to me.”

Reed and Devin glanced at each other. “It is now your job to take care of him,” Reed said.

He looked at Jasmin. “If you want to know everything, let’s sit on the couch.”

Jasmin immediately got up and sat down on the sofa. Devin told Jasmin everything while Reed sat in the chair that Jasmin was sitting in earlier. Reed just stared at Emy. He didn’t think Maria could betray him, but he didn’t say why. He didn’t ask because Maria might lie. It would be better if he knew why and who else was on their side. Also, he hadn’t finished looking for the person who almost made fun of Emy. If Maria, who betrayed him, didn’t feel bad about killing her, what else could the demon who abuses Emy be?
