Chapter 1022 - THE DEATH
If they were unable to kill the Hydra alone, what else with the addition of five devils who were in charge of guarding the monster.
Their chances of winning were getting smaller and smaller with every death of their comrades by every minute that passed.
It was such an impossible task to be accomplished even when the Devils were out of the picture, and now they were starting to feel even more hopeless.
This was not a good sign…
"What is your name?" asked the water dragon shifter, crouching down beside Bree and helping the little girl to sit up.
"Bree," Bree answered in a low voice, her eyes still searching for Rossie's figure, but then a stifled screech left her lips when her eyes laid upon the massive nine headed creature, and the fierce battle that was taking place, just a little far from where she woke up.
Instinctively, Bree attempted to pull herself away from Jean's embrace and tried to run, but couldn't because the water dragon shifter held her in place just as she tried to do so. Although not too strong, because he could accidentally hurt the little girl even more. Bree was very horrified to see the gruesome scene before her eyes, to say the least.
"Calm down..." the water dragon shifter pulled Bree closer to him and embraced her while caressing the side of her body to calm down this little girl a little. "My name is Draco, I am just like you, I am also a dragon shifter."
Bree then lifted her head and looked at the man beside her, she blinked and a single tear rolled down her cheek, she looked very scared and confused, and this made it difficult for Draco to get to his point.
Unfortunately, despite his reluctance, Draco had no other choice but to convey this. They had no other choice, because if all of this was not stopped immediately, everything would just go to waste.
"Bree, I need your help," Draco finally said.
The little girl raised her head, but her gaze would still wander toward the battle of the magicians and the five devil's. Her eyes were now clouded in fear as she struggled not to turn them toward the horrified scene.
"Bree, look at me," Draco shifted Bree's position, so they could face each other and held the little girl's cheeks with both of his hands, so she wouldn't turn back to see the gruesome scene. "I need your help."
"Wh- what?" Bree asked in a trembling voice, as if she had a bad feeling about this, she knew she wouldn't like to hear whatever Draco would ask of her.
And it was proven when Draco began conveying his pleas to Bree.
"I want you to shift back into your beast form, can you do that?" Draco said in a soft, persuasive voice, even when he could clearly see the fear unfolded in this girl's eyes, knowing what he was asking for.
Bree quickly shook her head. Her last experience changing into her dragon form did not leave a good impression at all, and fear immediately wrapped her heart just at the thought of changing into her dragon form again.
Bree could still feel the heat running through her veins and strange sounds like bones being broken, that emanated from her body as she transformed. Not to mention about the tremendous pain she had to endure throughout that terrifying experience.
"I don't want to..."Bree shook her head hard and didn't stop there, she tried to get away from Draco again. "Let me go!"
Bree kicked hard and made Draco let her go, because there was no way he could hold this little girl without injuring her when she tried so hard just to escape from him.
"Bree!" Jean screamed and tried to catch up with Bree who had gotten up and running, only that her short legs couldn't get her very far in such a short time.
Therefore, Christal could easily stop her movements with one of her magic tricks.
"It is not going to go according to the plan…" Christal muttered, waving her hand and pulling Bree back at them, against the little girl's will.
Bree tried to free herself, but was unable to resist the power of Christal's magic trick.
"Bree, calm down… we will not hurt you," Jean tried to persuade the terrified little girl. "Christal, I think you should stop scaring her like this."
Jean then grabbed Bree's hand when she got close enough and hugged her small body from behind.
"Calm down Bree, nobody is going to hurt you here." Jean hugged Bree tighter who was struggling with all her might, ignoring the pain she felt in her neck.
Luckily, the wound on Bree's neck was completely covered, thus the blood was no longer gushing over her body.
Right at that moment, a sound like a mini explosion was heard not too far from them, and startled the four people.
This made Bree stop struggling for a moment, but when she saw who was standing not too far from her, the little girl stretched out her hand, asking for help.
"Kace!" Bree called out his name in a hoarse voice.
Not far from them, the three Donovans and the Dwarf appeared with a huge dragon beast, standing right behind them.
Bree didn't recognize the dragon as Stephan, so her relief didn't last long and she started to get hysterical again.
"What are you doing?!" Kace exclaimed angrily when he saw Jean embracing Bree's struggling body. Without thinking, Kace immediately took long steps and approached the two of them.
Meanwhile, seeing the anger in Kace's red eyes, Jean instinctively let Bree go and the little girl ran toward the lycan.
Kace immediately embraced Bree's trembling body, casting wary glances at Christal, Jean and a man he didn't know.
"Long time no see, Christal," Kace greeted the candlemaiden in a cold voice.
"Yes, indeed, long time no see." Christal nodded. It had been almost two years since they last met and Kace had a beast problem in him, and even though Christal noticed that both sides of Kace were still unbalanced now, but at least the lycan was looking better than before.
Meanwhile, Jedrek recognized the water dragon shifter. "Draco," he said.
"My king," Draco replied in a respectful tone as he bowed to Jedrek.
"Where is the phoenix?" Torak asked Nutdrouk in his deep voice, but his eyes were fixed on the battle before him.
"Here," Nutdrouk said as he waved his hand, and the mythical creature appeared out of thin air, flapping it wings with red hues of fire on all over its body.
The phoenix's body was about the size of an a.d.u.l.t human, but when the mythical creature stood in front of Torak, it lowered its head so that the Supreme Alpha could touch its head.
"Everything is ready?" Torak asked, turning his gaze to Draco.
However, the water dragon shifter looked at Bree, who was now sobbing in Kace's arms, as his answer.
And now all eyes were on Bree and Kace.
On the other hand, Kace who knew the meaning of their gazes, gestured for them to wait, he couldn't possibly force Bree to do something she was afraid of in her current condition.
Then swiftly, Kace lifted Bree's body and took her away from them.
The little girl hugged Kace's neck and wrapped her legs around the lycan's waist very tightly while burying her face in his shoulders.
"It's okay Bree, I am here now," Kace coaxed the little girl.
On the other hand, seeing that, Jedrek and the rest of the people left the little dragon to their younger brother and focused their attentions back onto the five devils and the Hydra.
"We need her to defeat the Hydra," Christal said in her cold and gloomy voice.
"She will not be a help in that state, just leave her to Kace,"Jedrek said, his eyes fixed on what was happening before him. "It's time," Jedrek said.
==============
"What are you doing!?" Aeon screamed angrily at Belphegor as he witnessed the police cars surrounding Raine's house, carrying the bodies of Raine's parents into the ambulances, but it was certain that they were dead.
And now, the little girl was crying in fear in the arms of her neighbor. This sight really broke his heart.
He never wanted to see his little girl cry like that.
"HOW DARE YOU MANIPULATE ME AND KEPT ME AWAY FROM HER WHILE SH*T WAS HAPPENEING HERE?!"Aeon exclaimed, he threw his fist at Belphegor's face, but the devil managed to dodge it in time and laughed at Aeon's futile attempt to use his shadow tendrils to kill him.
"I did nothing," Belphegor curled his lips upward and smiled knowingly. "You came late and this is what happened. Blame yourself for not being with her when she needed you the most."
And those were the last words Aeon heard from the devil before he disappeared into the night, leaving him to witness how Raine cried in terror at the astral creatures that roamed around this place.
Then, with anger still controlling him, Aeon killed the astral creature in one swoop.
Only, this made Raine even more scared and Aeon immediately realized that he couldn't tell her the truth about himself now.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, Raine, who looked much more older, was watching all of this, as her body trembled violently.
She had let those creatures kill her family… again…
