Chapter 206: Never underestimate the one with the Lycan blood
[Warning! In this chapter, there will be gore, blood and death!]
Looking down at the dead rogue on the ground, Dane frowned.
'That's it?' he thought.
Krys grudgingly got to his feet, his eyes widened at the scene in front of him. 'No… this can't be!' he thought to himself, feeling dread overcoming him. 'I've used all the power I can to strengthen that damned mutt and it's not enough??'
He took a staggering step back, his eyes on Dane who was still looking down at the dead rogue. He then looked around and to his disbelief, even though they outnumbered the shifters here, they were still losing!
What's going on here??
Before Dane noticed him, he decided to flee. He regrets coming to this place, not expecting that this would be his burial ground! He immediately went the other way. In the midst of other rogues and shifters' fighting, he broke through them. But before that, he had quickly casted an invisibility spell on himself to ensure that Dane did not notice him.
The others were startled when they felt something had bumped or pushed them away, resulting in a chaotic scene that does not benefit both sides of the parties.
"HEY!"
"What was that??"
"Something just fricking bumped into me!"
Ignoring the bedlam he had caused behind him, Krys continued to escape with tails between his legs. He rather faced the wrath of Rehan than being killed by that vile lycan. He did not want to be known as the warlock who was weak against shifters. Even if that shifter was a lycan!
Just as he was running away, Dane raised his head and looked around him. Havoc rising up around him as many casualties increased; there were many warlocks, shifters and rogues ended up being dead in the fight. It was quite a gory and barbaric brawl. There were slashes and gashes here and there; causing many blood to spill in the area. What used to be a lush and greenery field was now a red and bloodied place, where the smell of the metallic blood was very strong in the air.
Dane looked around him and narrowed his eyes in suspicion.
Over at one side, Kaius and Elias were fighting together against some of the rogues. Seeing how there were hardly some scratches on their body and how many rogues were left lying on the ground with blood around them, it seems like the father-son duo have such great teamwork.
Calder and Amarok, on the other hand, seems like they were not used to each other's fighting as they kept intercepting each other, resulting in Amarok shouting blasphemy at the calm Calder, who continued fighting, without replying to the angry shifter.
Seeing how they seemed to be able to handle the situation around him, Dane decided to search for the 'mischievous' warlock, who had been giving him problems and annoying him.
Using his sense of smell, he carefully looked around him. He knew that the warlock was probably in incognito, hiding among the brawl happening around the area. Disregarding those fighting around him, Dane quickly followed the scent. Although he could not see the warlock, he could still smell his scent.
There were a few warlocks and rogues, who had their sight in Dane as they either attempted to attack him or double teamed on him. However, the lycan easily subdued them, flipping them over his shoulders and continued on his pursuit.
Ahead of him, Krys was getting anxious and panicky. He felt like the lycan was closing in on him. He was too afraid to look over his shoulder as he pushed his way through the brawls happening around him.
When he saw Rae fighting against one of the rogues, who was trying to destroy their sacred tree, he felt like he had found a chance to live. He immediately rushed towards Rae, who was oblivious to the incoming danger coming to her.
Once he reached Rae's side, the latter felt something appear next to her. However, when she turned, she could find nothing, which seemed bizarre.
Before she could speculate what was going on, she felt her arms were being held behind her, against her will. And she could feel something hot, like fire poking underneath her chin.
Her eyes widened in shock when a warlock suddenly materialised beside her. She looked down to where she could feel the burning sensation and saw that it was a wand that was probably smothered with wolfsbane.
Dane narrowed his eyes dangerously when he saw that the cowardly warlock had used Rae as the scapegoat for his way out.
Kaius, who was in the middle of fighting against two of the warlocks, saw what had happened to Rae, at the same time Dane did. He felt angry at how the despicable warlock has the guts to use his mate as his shield. He immediately finished off the two warlocks, slamming their heads against each other with full power, smashing them like one would smash a watermelon.
Ignoring the blood and fluid that were dripping down from his claws, Kaius quickly rushed over to where Rae was being held against.
However, before he could reach her, Dane had held out his arm, stopping the shifter from moving ahead. Kaius growled in anger at his interference.
Dane looked over at Kaius and said raspily, "Do you not trust your mate?"
Kaius snarled in anger at Dane's assumption. "Of course, I do! But she's--"
"Trust her."
Before Kaius could reply, Rae, who was thought to be helpless in her current situation, suddenly turned her head to the other side, Towards Krys and grabbed the wand in her claws. There was a sizzling sound coming out from her claws, as if her claws were burning. But the shifter was oblivious to it, much to the warlock's shock.
She snapped the wand in half and grinded it into dust in her claws, shocking the warlock further. The wound on Rae's chin where the wand with the wolfsbane had poked her, quickly healed up, as if it wasn't there in the first place.
Taking advantage of the warlock's surprise, Rae grabbed Krys by the neck and raised him up in the air. Krys immediately tried to grab at her claws, trying to get away from her as he tried to breathe.
Dane scoffed. "Never underestimate a shifter who has been locked in the basement for so long, thinking she has done nothing at all. Especially one who has the lycan blood."
