Ch 67: The plan fails [pt2]

As soon as the divine vessel had been distracted, Alex had decided. He could choose to say Jay or he could choose to go after the shrine.

He had a feeling that this would be his last chance, so Alex decided to go after the shrine instead of being with Jay and defending him. The second he touched the shrine; Alex felt his body being invaded with power.’

Celery’s power was burning inside her veins and Alex could feel his interacting with the shrine as well. But his curse was not reacting to the shrine. Alex had no idea how to break his curse right now.

[You need to pour your power into the shrine. Let my essence into the shrine and let my powers interact with it. Once I cut off the connection, you all would be free of this shrine’s influence.]

The goddess whispered inside Alex’s ear and he left it all up to her. His body felt weak once his power began to leave.
