Chapter 218: Struggle for Dominance (Part-2) (1/2)

After Ava left with Carlos.

King Danlit's displeased expression was fully visible on his face upon seeing the reaction of his daughter and looked at his son Antonio with questioning graze.

Knowing that his son and daughter are really open hearted with each other instead of their parents.

”Antonio, do you know anything? Why was Ava reacting like that and who is this old man for whom goodwill, she is so anxious and left in a hurry.”

Antonio hesitated because his father has been king for two centuries and has developed a natural instinct of detecting lies and finding out the truth.

He tried to look calm but his heartbeat was increasing at a rapid rate under his father's graze and the aura of the king he was emitting.

Cursing in his heart,'Why did the elder sister have to open up her secret yesterday?.

Having no choice, he replied with a thin smile.

”Father, the old man is the caretaker of the old unknown god temple near the slum. I think you have heard about it also. It is very famous and is called the temple of God of slaves among the common masses.”

Elizabeth looked at her son and looked at his husband who nodded his head upon listening to his son and observed the food which was slowly turning cold.

She wanted to tell them to stop discussing these things. While they were eating; but she was also interested and was also surprised by the intense reaction by her daughter.

Suddenly, the ruined face of her beautiful and talented daughter floated inside her head and felt bitter. She cannot understand, why does her daughter have to suffer like this? at such a young age.

Listening to the entire story, King Danlit frowned. He cannot understand how her daughter became close friends with an ordinary person with no background. Even though his son had not told him. He can detect that he is trying to hide something.

Queen Elizabeth also disappointed in knowing that her daughter was his friend with a low class individual. Instead, she should make friends with people from high class society.

It was obvious that they looked down upon ordinary citizens and their lifestyle and considered themselves superior.

Yet, Ava and Antonio didn't think like that as they continued their breakfast with Ava.

Antonio was still worried about his elder sister. Seeing her reaction, he can see that she still has feelings for the old man he had never met.

[Servants Residential House]

Ava arrived with Carlos and found Evaron laying down on the bed but his condition looked worse than it was described by Carlos.

He looked like a dried up corpse with white vapour rising from his body, his previous paper brown skin had turned bright red like it was on fire.

The temperature of the room was so high that the maids had to leave the room. Not being able to do anything and observe from the sideline.

Carlos dismissed them as they went away.

Princess Ava was also confused and cannot understand what is going on with her friend's body because instead of feeling any sign of death. She can hear the sound of breath as well as a low heart beat rate as his life force expands. It was vibrant like a young man in his teens when she had first met him.

Suddenly an ill dark red colour aura started to rise from Evaron's body slowly.

Both Carlos and Ava were astonished on feeling the nature of the aura, which they were very familiar with due to their experience in fortline war with Demonic Alliance.

'Demonic power.'

Which is very harmful for humans due to its destructive nature and usually only demonic creatures and demon clan members possess it. Which can only mean that a person must have a demonic bloodline to possess demonic power.

Power of destruction, which is the bloodline ability of the Astral demon clan, is also one type of demonic power born out of a mutation of demonic power.

”Princess, what is the identity of this old man? How come he has a demonic bloodline and judging from its intensity, it's an ancient rank demonic bloodline.”

Ava didn't know what to say? She really didn't know that Evaron had a demonic bloodline flowing in his veins and what has suddenly triggered it's awakening. One must understand that demonic creatures and the human race never had good relationships or they would not be fighting with each other.

”If father finds out, he will definitely kill him.”

Getting no response from the princess, Carlos didn't know what to do? His duty as members of the human race was to kill all demonic races as they are considered arch enemies of the human race and according to historical texts most humans during the chaotic era have died in their hands and that hate still continues with human bloodline.

Yet, he also can't take back his promise to the princess of taking care of the old man.

Slowly under effect of the demonic bloodline, Evaron's body started to transform into a demon as his hands turned into claws and teeth into fangs, small horns started to appear.

The old skinny body started to become muscular.

Ava was not able to her friend and former love turning into a demon as she turned away and heard the sound of Carlos.

”Princess, what should I do? Should I kill him.”

Her body trembled and with a painful expression looked at Evaron who was slowly going through a demonic transformation.

She didn't want him to see him in this condition nor did she want to kill him.

Carlos again looked at the Princess who was hesitating and made a discussion on his own.

Which was best for the human kind and was really to kill him.
