CHAPTER 129~3RD PERSON'S POV~Clarabelle sat on a throne at the center of the dark forest. She had an emotionless expression on her face and had some strands of her hair hanging in front of her face. A large nightwalker laid beside her throne, and she used her left palm to gently pet its head. Her fingers brushed through its fur, and it released what looked like black dust into the air.She let out a sigh and closed her eyes. As she did, a large portal appeared before her. The portal glowed purple and swirled around in an anticlockwise direction. “Hmmm, you're back,” she said softly.All four of her minions walked through the portal, THE UNKNOWN being the first to come out.He bowed to Clarabelle, then said, “My queen, we have returned from our mission. The first and second phases of the plan were successful. We successfully killed all the council members and replaced them, and we were able to fool Lady Anaya into revealing the existence of werewolves.”“That sounds… splendid,” Cla
CHAPTER 130~3RD PERSON'S POV~“So tell me, Lady Anaya. Where are the rest of the werewolves? I want names, facial descriptions, and locations. Are there children involved in this? Were they forced to join your werewolf cult? Are you a werewolf yourself? Tell me everything.” The policeman who was interrogating Anaya said.“I refuse to answer any silly questions until my lawyer gets here,” Anaya said. She was wearing an orange jumpsuit.“Listen, Mrs. Dragnon, you may have power over the outside world, but not in here. Inside these four walls, I'm in charge, and I get to do whatever I please with you if you refuse to comply." The policeman said, his brows furrowing as he leaned forward.Anaya stared at him for a moment, then said, “You really have no idea who I am, do you? I could get the military of the country to drop a bomb in the area and kill every single one of you here, but I have refused to do that because innocent civilians will die. I could also take down this entire station
CHAPTER 131~3RD PERSON’S POV~“If you wish to leave this place alive, kneel before me.”“Heh, you sure have one hell of a mouth. Let me make myself clear. You're about to die, and no one's going to save you, Anaya,” the large woman spoke again.Anaya let out a sigh and closed her eyes. She got up from where she sat and put her hair in a bun, then opened her eyes. Her irises glowed golden yellow, and she spoke again.“I said kneel."The energy from her immense aura suddenly filled the room, and all four women who came in fell on their knees. The pressure on their bodies increased again, and they fell face-flat on the ground.The ground inside the cell broke to pieces, and the rubble was instantly flattened by the pressure.“What’s happening?” One of the women struggled to ask as blood spilled out of her mouth.“If I raise the energy in this room any further, your bones will be crushed, and you will be flattened instantly. Lower life forms such as yourself cannot stand before me, and t
CHAPTER 132~3RD PERSON’S POV~A white piece of chalk suddenly materialized in Mary’s right hand. She crouched down and used the chalk to draw a magic circle on the ground, then drew a straight line from its center to its circumference.“How did she do that?” Lily whispered, leaning toward Marian, who stood beside her.“Do what?” Marian asked. “She drew a perfect circle and a straight line with only her hand. How much of a perfectionist does she have to be to be able to do that?"“There’s a technique I use. It’s not too complicated, but I don’t think it’ll ever be of use to you since you’re not a witch like me,” Mary replied, staring at the circle. She raised her head and smiled at Lily, then continued, “If you wish to learn it, I can teach you.”“That won’t be necessary,” Lily replied, stroking the back of her head and giggling nervously. The chalk Mary held transformed into a needle, and Mary turned to Gabriella. “This circle represents the map of the abyss realm, and the line tha
CHAPTER 133~3RD PERSON’S POV~Maria’s house was quiet; the only sound that could be heard was that of an afternoon breeze blowing through her gardens. Maria walked around the large barn Derren built, feeding the livestock. She had already cleaned up the entire house and watered all the plants, and all that was left now was having breakfast.She opened the front door and walked in. Her eyes had dark sacks underneath them, and her hair was a mess. She looked exhausted and weak, and she found it hard to walk around the house without bumping into random objects.She staggered to the kitchen and served herself some spaghetti on a flat ceramic plate. She moved to the dining room and sat on one end of her table. As she placed her meal on the table, she stared at it for a moment, then picked up her fork. She stabbed the fork into the spaghetti strands, twirled it around, and as she raised it to her mouth, she stopped.Tears rolled out of her eyes, and the fork dropped from her hand back onto
CHAPTER 134~3RD PERSON’S POV~The rays of the morning sun shot through the window in Maria and Derren's bedroom and fell on Maria's face. Her eyes slowly opened, and as her vision cleared up, she met face-to-face with Derren, who was staring at her silently.Her eyes widened in shock, and she jumped off the bed quickly, yelling, “Whoa! Who are you?”“What do you mean by that? I'm your husband,” Derren replied, sitting up.“You’re supposed to be dead! I mean… How are you alive right now?” Maria asked, backing up against the bedroom wall.“I didn't actually die; I was trapped in the realm of the abyss. The little witch named Mary helped release me before the demons there got the chance to actually kill me,” Derren replied.Maria stared at him for a moment, then said, "So... you're actually here right now?"“Yeah, I'm sorry I left you alon-” Derren was about to speak when Maria suddenly wrapped her arms around him.“Shut up! It's not your fault you died. It's the kind of thing that's pr
CHAPTER 135~3RD PERSON’S POV~"Hmm, how do you find an abyss demon?” Anaya thought to herself, pacing around in her living room. She had her right thumb and index finger holding her chin and her left arm around her lower torso. As she walked back and forth, she recalled her conversation with Mary.~A few hours ago~“Abyss demons are afraid of witches? Why is that?” Anaya asked with a confused expression.“To be exact, abyss demons are afraid of the energy we emit. From birth, a witch constantly releases a kind of dark energy that will instantly burn and kill an abyss demon if it comes into contact with us. So, they’d never try to harm a witch. But Demons like THE UNKNOWN and the other three are immune to this energy,” Mary explained.“Because a witch who can emit enough energy to affect the lords… doesn’t exist." Anaya said.“Yeah, something like that,” Mary replied.A smirk grew on Anaya’s face as she remembered her battle with Mammon. She could clearly remember that Mammon yelled i
CHAPTER 136~3RD PERSONS POV~“So, what's the message you've brought from Anaya?” Steven asked. Gregory and Gabriella sat in his office early in the morning to have a meeting.Gabriella pushed out a soft breath and said, turning to Steven, “She has a mission for you. As you already know, all the council members have been replaced by abyss demons. This not only risks the integrity of the werewolf world, but also the safety of their families.The mission she has for you is to get all the other alphas to help take the families of the deceased council members away from their homes to protect them and kill the present council members before they cause irreversible damage to the peace on the planet."Steven stared at Gabriella for a moment, then said, locking his fingers together, “Sounds like a doable task, but I'm pretty sure she knows that the number of packs that agreed to the merge I planned was reduced during the war with Alpha Derren, so most of the other packs are not under my contr
