Chapter 263 - The Incident By The Pavilion (5) (2/2)

Now, there were just five more lines of the spell and she'd soon grant that mission the world entrusted her with!

But just as she was finishing the last line of her spell, there was a sudden fluctuation of magic particles in the middle of Inna and Alana. And when the magic particles soon formed the figure of Raghnall, Alana's heart shook with hesitation.

She widened her eyes in fear as she frantically tried to think straight.

If Raghnall were to notice the signature of the magic particles in that spell, she'd surely be in trouble!

But if she were to stop now, there might never be the chance as good as this to get rid of that idiot…

She trembled in panic while she tried to hide behind one of the pillars of the pavilion. Well, if it meant destroying that woman who has stolen the man of her dreams, then she'll take whatever punishment they'll give her!

With her decision set in stone, she continued to cast the last few phrases of the curse.

And so, now that the curse was near completion, it began to slowly activate as black magic particles began to ooze out from Alana's necklace. Then, it morphed into one with the shadows as it began to behave like vines. They slowly slithered towards the sleeping form of Ingrid.

But Raghnall finally finished his teleportation and in a blink of an eye, he appeared at the entrance of the pavilion. Feeling something was terribly wrong, he looked at the direction of Ingrid and despite the darkness, he was able to see the black magic particles that began to creep around her sleeping form. Wasting no time, he hurriedly tried to warn Ingrid as he ran towards her.

But by then, Alana was already finished with the spell and so when the black vines were about to strike Ingrid, Raghnall had no choice but to jump in front of her to take the blow instead.

The black vines forcefully struck his chest as it instantly slithered around him as though it was trapping its prey. They wrapped around him tightly that it made him unable to move, making him land on the floor with a huge thud. Then, the black vines soon seeped into Raghnall's skin, tainting his veins black as he screamed in pure agony.

Seeing the disaster, Alana wanted to scream in despair as she battled the urge to try and heal Raghnall. She was torn between staying and escaping but deep inside, she knew better than to stay longer after what she had just mistakenly done. And so, despite the sadness in her heart, she hurriedly tried to escape while holding back the sobs that began to form by the back of her throat.

Oh heavens... S-she… she never meant for this to happen!

Meanwhile, Ingrid woke up from a loud thundering sound of someone screaming by her side. And when she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see Raghnall on the floor convulsing as dark lines began to cover his whole body.

Seeing his eyes turn unfocused and his expression filled with pain, she felt panic rise up her heart.

She had no idea what to do! She's no healer! She doesn't even have any kind of medicine with her!

Heavens, s-she even had no way to know what was wrong with him!

Still, she tried her best to figure things out despite her mind going near crazy with panic. She no longer cared about her blood nor her bleeding as she tried her best to lay Raghnall flat on the ground.

But Raghnall suddenly started to convulse. His body turned into multiple shades paler as he began to throw up blood.

With the smell of his blood now bombarding her senses, it spiked up fear and panic in Ingrid's heart.

Oh dear heavens, was he going to die?!

Feeling overwhelmed from the immense panic and fear she felt, she began to feel her chest becoming tight and heavy. Tiny blotches of white began to fill her vision then, a few seconds later, she fell limp on top of Raghnall's body as their visions both darkened into nothingness.
