136 Chapter 136: You are my treasure (2/2)

Hezekiah looked up and saw his sister crying making his heart wince. He wanted to tell her he was fine but he couldn't move. The last strike was too much for his weak body. But his face paled when he saw the guy who held her neck before stand up and smirk at him. He watched him approach Hazel who was oblivious to the danger.

His vision blurred and when he blinked and opened his eyes. The person was right there, behind her with his sword raised to stab her. He tried standing up but his body gave out as he fell flat on the floor.

Hazel upon seeing that started to crawl towards her brother when she felt her hair being tugged painfully.

The guy spoke, ”Audrey, we are killing her here. We should get moving soon before the guards arrive.”

Hazel zoned out on their speech as her entire focus was on her brother. She wanted to go over to him and save him. She was willing to trade her life for his for her mistakes. She shouldn't have trusted anyone.... shouldn't have been willful.

Her expression froze when she saw Audrey raise her sword to kill her brother. She didn't know what happened but Hazel suddenly screamed madly.

”NOO...DON'T YOU DARE”

A white light shone out of her body blinding everyone. Hezekiah's eyes widened for a second before a smile broke out.

Suddenly, Lightning struck through the roof at Audrey, electrocuting her severely. She staggered back towards the wall and fell on the ground. Everyone turned towards Hazel who had sparks emitting out of her body.

Lightning struck her immediately as it coursed through her body as she stood up. She screamed and the force of it made the guy tugging her hair crash against the wall. The windows burst open and the cold gust of wind immediately entered the room.

Hazel opened her eyes and raised her hand as lightning arrows filled the air surrounding her. The others glanced at her in horror but before they could make a run for it, Hazel let her hand fall and those sparks immediately rained on them.

She narrowed her eyes as she looked at them coldly. She clenched her hand into a fist as her body wrapped itself in lightning. She appeared in front of the people and slashed their heads off of their bodies. Hazel didn't pay any heed to it as blood splashed on her clothes and her face.

She only had one thought that was to avenge her brother and save him.

Right after killing them, Hazel appeared in front of Audrey and stared down at her. How did she even think of calling her, her friend? was the only thought that rose in her mind when her hand struck her chest. Just like how she attacked her brother.

Hazel watched how Audrey stared at her in shock as she coughed out blood. Hazel gritted her teeth as she ground her hand deep into her chest till she felt the bones inside her before pulling her hand out. She looked at her hand which was coated in blood before looking at the pale-faced Audrey.

Her friend... her first and last friend.

Hazel whispered, ”Goodbye” and hacked her head. Even after killing her, Hazel couldn't control her inner fury. She wanted to stab their dead bodies to pieces until a voice broke through her mind.

”F-Freya”

Instantly her power disappeared as she turned to her brother lying in his pool of blood. She saw her raise his hand towards her. Her tears fell as she hurried towards him and grabbed his hand.

Hazel looked at him worriedly as she didn't know where to touch him.

”Brother- brother....so much blood...what should we do? Wait, I will call the guards over. Don't worry, I will save you.”

Yet she was pulled back by his hand. Hezekiah shook his head weakly, ”Don't leave”

He didn't want to die alone...at least he wanted to see his beloved sister before he closes his eyes. His sister who was reduced to tears now. He wanted to wipe her tears but he found his hand has no strength.

He looked at her and smiled sadly, ”I'm sorry to break my promise yet again.” He won't be able to protect her anymore.

His eyes glanced over at her bloodied hands and said dishearteningly, ” I didn't want you to see this”

Hazel tightened her hold seemingly scared of losing her brother as she said, ”No...no. it's my fault. I should have stayed inside the gates.”

”Brother, you can ground me for a decade and I wouldn't care but please don't leave me, alright?”

Hezekiah looked at her and motioned her to let him up. Hazel carefully hoisted him up and he hugged her tightly.

”Sorry, Freya... I am going to miss a lot of things in your life now... I won't be able to see you grow into this beautiful maiden and I wouldn't be able to chase away your suitors.”

”No..No... you will be able to. Just wait, okay? I will get the healer and you will be all well.”

”Freya”

His voice stopped her fluster as she cried, ”No... please don't leave me, brother.”

”I'm sorry, Freya... I'm really sorry. Don't forget that you are my treasure and I love you.”
