Chapter 1029: A miracle happened
The pain was so intense that Calleb stopped running and froze in his spot. His breathing became ragged and he felt the air around him turn denser and harder to breathe in, making it difficult for him to breathe. ;
His body was shaking and his eyes turned bloodshot red within no time. ;
All the sounds around him were very disturbing, only grunts and meaningless roars. ;
Calleb felt the ground beneath his feet disappear as he could no longer feel his own legs. It was as if someone had sucked his entire soul out and he was just a soulless being. ;
Everything became meaningless, even he himself and his existence in this realm, that feeling alone was very torturous. ;
However, it was not just Calleb who felt that agony, Ethan was also experiencing it along with him. In fact, it was the third time for the latter. ;
He felt how the bond that he shared with his only sister had been being cut off. Crushed instantly. ;
And that could only mean one thing; Rossie is gone. ;
It can't be right? ;
It is impossible. ;
They could see Rossie's hiding place now. They were so close. They couldn't be late. She would be okay soon... ;
Right? ;
No one could answer Calleb and Ethan's frantic thoughts. But certainly, the pain was real. ;
Calleb felt like his insides were being torn apart and there was nothing he could do to make it better. ;
The pain this time was a thousand times more painful than anything he had ever felt before. Much more painful than the most painful thing that he had ever felt in his entire lifetime. ;
The beast fell to the ground, roaring painfully, as if his voice was racing against the upheaval that was going on around him, before he finally picked up his pace and ran toward the abandoned garden. ;
Over there, the lycans had driven away the humans, killed some and chased the rest of them. ;
However, any of these could not gain Calleb's attention now. ;
The closer he got to the garden, the slower his footsteps became. ;
While the distance between himself and the figure, lying motionless in Sybil's arms who was sitting on the ground hugging the figure's body, reduced gradually, Calleb transformed into his human form. ;
His steps were slow and his forehead creased deeply. Displaying his disbelief at the situation he had to face. ;
In the end, when he was only four steps away, Calleb stopped walking altogether. His body froze, trying to digest what was happening. ;
Even though the excruciating pain he felt already gave him the absolute answer, his brain was still trying to deny the reality before his eyes very strongly. ;
Even as Ethan ran, charging at the figure in Sybil's arms, he was still frozen where he stood. ;
Ethan roared and exclaimed, letting out the saddest howl Calleb had ever heard. He screamed into the dark of night. ;
He howled at the moonless sky. ;
And that painful roar made all the lycans there stop, speechless. It was as if time had stopped ticking and their focus this time was only on Ethan and what he was crying at. ;
Meanwhile, a short distance away, Calleb could see Rossie's face, which was partially covered with her hair, but he could still see how the girl had closed her eyes and the two shots lodged in her chest. Wetting the clothes she was wearing. ;
It was a melee shot, hitting her vital point directly. ;
And the possibility of surviving that was... ;
Calleb didn't even dare to think any further. His mind froze. ;
And that was when he lost it, the last thing he remembered was when the beast inside him took over his consciousness and all he heard after that was a word that kept ringing in his head as he ran in a different direction from the place where Rossie was lying in Ethan's embrace, as he roared. Full of sorrow. ;
Nothing was more painful than this… as if the whole world was falling apart and Calleb didn't even seem to care who will win this war anymore. ;
'Kill all humans.' ;
And his instinct took Calleb to a densely populated area as he started killing who ever fell in his line of sight blindly. ;
============== ; ; ; ; ;
From this close, one could clearly hear the Hydra's painful roars and also how its heads writhed in pain. ;
However, far above them, the three dragon beasts with the mythical phoenix, who were flying at the center of the circle of flames still didn't let go of the creature and were trying to burn the monster to dust. ;
Meanwhile, the five devils who finally registered this, were trying to kill all the magicians who were trying to prevent them from eliminating the dragons and the phoenix. ;
The three white beasts shot through the curses that flew around them and a tornado that rolled into the air together with the crimson flames, that were still wrapped around the Hydra. ;
Since the Donovans were immune to magicians' curses and could easily evade the devils' counterattacks, they managed to lead the minotaurs and the few surviving shifters on their way into the devils' defenses. ;
And right at that moment, the devils decided to stop the time. Everything fell silent and remained still. ;
Not only did it have an effect on the magicians, who was instantly immobile and unable to help to protect the dragon beasts, but it also affected the dragon beasts and knocked them out of the air. ;
Only the phoenix was unaffected by this, but just with the power of the mythical bird, it was not enough to complete their task of finishing off the Hydra, burning the monster completely. ;
The minotaurs, shifters and faes stood still at their place and became easy targets for the devils to finish them all off. ;
It was just that, a miracle happened. ;
Time only stopped for a few seconds before things went back to normal. However, of course it was not the devils, that decided to run back time again. ;
It was really confusing, but if they paid attention, the person responsible was not far from the battlefield. ;
Raine stood beside the red haired witch who looked very pale. ;
"Good job, Hope…" Serefina said in a low voice, while Hope, next to her sighed softly… ;
She wasn't sure she could do this smoothly enough. ;
