Chapter 185: Darkness... (2/2)
'He ordered me not to help him and help you instead, and once we defeat this enemy, we can all go and help him together,' Jayden retorted.
'I see… If my lord wills it then it shall be done, his… will… is… absolute,' Abby replied, stopping after some words as her struggles became more and more apparent to Jayden.
'Okay! Listen! Before you come I need to inform you on what's happening! We are going against light puppets! Our enemies are not even human! They are not that physically strong but they adapt and grow extremely powerful which is why it's a real struggle to kill them. I don't think you can turn into them with your powers but If you can copy their armour, they might think you are one of them and sabotage them. Or, maybe you could sneak- ******* Wai ***** Shi***Wa*****Th***Fu**** Wat***Out!***Sh**** Goh****--------' Alex said, his voice suddenly becoming more and more choppy and full of static until his voice could no longer be heard.
'Hello! Abby? Alex!? Can you guys here me? What happened?' She yelled back only to receive no response.
It was almost like a bad call connection only more supernatural.
Jayden's eyes grew wide, she never even thought that what happened could be even possible since she thought their mind-link was nigh invincible and couldn't be tampered with by outside sources.
She knew that something was definitely wrong… Alex was clearly trying to warn her about something but he was suddenly cut off by some unknown means.
She took out her daggers from her inventory and prepared herself for anyone and anything that might come her way.
However, she did not stop her movement and advances towards the battlefield since what happened might have also meant that Alex and Abby were now in trouble or fatally wounded, giving her even more reason not to stop and try her best to reach the battle as soon as physically possible.
As she was sprinting through the forest, now on higher alert and with even greater urgency than before, she felt her vision go slightly darker… Despite her perfect night vision, some darkness was flooding her vision. It was something that she had not seen or experienced in months, something that she had completely forgotten even existed ever since she had turned into a demon.
Still not slowing down, she looked around here only to see no sign of anyone or anything. When she tried to rub her eyes to see if there was something in them, it did not seem to help at all.
Despite all her efforts, her vision continued to turn darker and darker, but even still, she could not allow herself to slow down and give up.
”Who the fuck is out there! Show your self pussy!” Jayden's screams echoed in the forest as she continued to look around with her now almost human-like vision.
However, she received no response and spotted absolutely no one… Her vision only grew darker… It felt similar to her shadow ability only slightly different… She had no idea what was going on but she was certain that it had to do with outside ability influence.
But, soon enough she would undoubtedly go blind and she knew no way of stopping it. Her only idea of how to stop this was to take out or injure the ability holder, but without knowing where that person is, it would be completely impossible.
'What the fuck is going on! Fuck my life! What kind of dirty trick is this!' She inwardly cursed.
With the last shreds of light about to escape from her vision, she let out her last-ditch effort, releasing all of her mana in all directions, blasts of shadow energy left out of her body until she is sucked completely dry.
Yet, she still felt like her attacks hit absolutely nothing as her vision was now all dark making her completely blind...
She stopped her movements and began to frantically attack in front of her with her daggers, only seeming to attack the air and nearby tree trunks.
”You dirty bitch! Come out and face me!” She yelled, her face completely red from anger and frustration.
”With pleasure...” A soft yet ominous female voice came from behind her.
And before she even got the chance to attack where the sound came or even respond, she felt a swift yet painful strike on her neck like it was on a pressure point, causing her to fall down on the ground and lose consciousness...
