Chapter 203: Giving in to Lust (1/2)

”Hmmpph!”, Adhara grunted as her chest felt like it's burning.

Edward brought her back to her room after Adhara denied going to the infirmary, he lies Adhara on the bed in panic.

They're just chilling in front of the Magic Shop before,

But then suddenly Adhara felt pain in her chest, and this confused Edward.

Based on what he knows,

An Awakened will not fall sick to any normal human's sickness, only sickness that comes from mana, mutated animal, or Supernatural can make an Awakened sick.

So seeing Adhara sick like this, Edward didn't know what to do.

Especially after seeing Adhara's pained expression and her gasp for air, it's like she's been tortured by something.

”Edward...”, Adhara called softly.

Hearing his name got called, Edward approach Adhara with a frown, ”What do you need? I don't know what's happening to you”

”Don't mind me, can you look after Kyran?”, She said with heavy breaths.

Edward frowns harder, it's weird for Adhara to ask him to look after Kyran when the one who is sick is her not Kyran.

Looking at Edward's confused expression, Adhara then said, ”Just check on him!”

After getting told to check on Kyran for the second time, Edward finally left the room and went to the other room where Kyran should be.

He opened the door and find that Kyran is not there, there's only Ryze sitting on the corner.

”Ryze, Have you seen Kyran?”, Edward asks.

Ryze can only shake his head, he then replied, ”His body is red before he left, I thought he went to the infirmary”

Hearing this, Edward frowns.

He then left the room and called for the butler, but the butler didn't come to only Clarice the maid approach him, ”What can I help you with Sir Edward?”

”Where's the butler? I want to see Kyran”, Edward asks.

Clarice then said, ”The butler left with Kyran a while ago, I don't know where they went but Sir Kyran looks in a hurry”

After getting the answer, Edward runs outside to find Kyran.

Although he doesn't know what's going on, Adhara told him to check on Kyran so something must have happened to him.

Meanwhile,

”These are the survivors?”, Sebrof asks in shock.

In front of him is the so-called survivors, and they're only less than fifty of them.

An Awakened wearing a guild's uniform beside Sebrof then said, ”Yes sir, out of the population of Lupis City only these people manage to escape”

”The others got trapped in Lupis City, the city is already crawling with demons”, he added.

Hearing this, Sebrof clenched his hand in anger.

The Great Barricade is there for a reason, to prevent the Supernaturals to enter human territories easily and avoid this kind of situation.

Many of the powerful Awakened are stationed there, only a handful stayed behind.

But now, the demons suddenly attacked Lupis City.

Sebrof looks to the members of the guilds that arrive at the scene with a little bit of confidence, there's about 500 of them with about 10 are a rank seven Awakened.

His eyes then landed on a man wearing a white guild uniform that has sharp eyes.

Sebrof looks at the man with bright eyes, ”Regulo of the Valiant Sacrament, I'm surprised you came. I thought that nothing besides playing and teaching with kids can entice you”

”Sir Sebrof, with all due respect, I'm just making sure the young generation will still be able to defend humanity once we're gone”, Regulo said nonchalantly.

His gentle yellow eyes are soothing to look at, and his smile gives off a holy aura.

Regulo is a rank seven Awakened from the Valiant Sacrament Guild, he's a rare Light Elementalist that has powerful buff and protection spells necessary to attack a stronghold.

Demons are also weak to light element, and his presence brought relief to Sebrof.

”Make sure the survivors are well fed and protected”, Sebrof said before the Awakened beside him nodded his head.

He then added, ”Regulo and Lista, come with me to look at Lupis City”

Hearing his name got called, Lista then said, ”Sir Sebrof? You're going to inspect the city yourself? Me and Regulo can do it”

”No, I want to see these demons that dares to wander on our territory myself”, Sebrof said.

After saying that, the three of them then disappear from sight.

The survivors are already brought to a safe place by the nearby Awakened, so they can't see Lupis City from this place.

Sebrof and the others then suddenly stopped on a hill,

Their eyes widened in surprise as they saw the scene in front of him that makes their back tingle, they didn't expect to see anything like this.

In front of them, is Lupis City.

But Lupis City doesn't look like how it is supposed to be anymore,

The city already turned into a demonic city as blue fire envelopes the whole place, all of the walls, grounds, and even buildings got corrupted by the blue fire.

Many different types of demons are already crawling inside the city.

Just from a look, Sebrof and the others know that to take back the city will need a tremendous amount of resources.

Amongst the demons crawling in the city, the four-armed demons are the most common.

Their bodies are filled with blue fire that even their saliva turns blue, black charcoal skin, hulking big bodies, and they all held a blue sword in their hand.

”Blue Demons? I never knew there's one”, Regulo said with a frown.

Sebrof also looks at the scene with a troubled look, ”It is indeed new, do the demons achieve a breakthrough?”

It's common knowledge for demons to have red energy,

Even during the first emergence of demons, all of them have fiery blood that glows red and their bodies are emitting strong heat.

But the demons in front of them are blue,

From their changes in appearance alone, Sebrof and the others concluded that the demons have achieved a breakthrough making them turn blue.

”It'll be hard to take this city back, we don't even know how strong they are”, Regulo said.

Lista also agrees with Regulo, ”We need to test their strength first, then we can devise a plan to deal with them”

”Nevertheless, an attack this close to Ratmawati City cannot be tolerated”

But just when they're discussing amongst themselves,

Swoosh...
