Curse of the Demon Blood

Professor Finn was at the back of the spirit. Using a small crystal ball, he was collecting the essence of the spirit, "If you try to interrupt me then I have no choice but to kill you all!"

"Was she really dead?" Lander asked himself while still staring at the gorgeous spirit. This spirit was no other than the Princess Caster, the love of that necromancer.

"Professor Finn, stop! Immediately stop!" Professor Dimitri begged while trembling, he knew the consequences of Professor Finn's action. It would be a great calamity.

"No one can stop me!" Professor Finn laughed very excited.

"Help me! Or this devil can't be stopped!" The woman begged looking at the professors.

"Release you seal!" Lander said as he moved towards the devil.

"Lander, wait!"

"What do you think you're doing?"

"You'll only die!"

Moving in front of the devil, Lander was scared but there was someone calling him from the inside of the devil, "Quickly release it or I won't save your man and your daughter!"

The spirit released teardrops after teardrops while hesitating, "You'll only die!"

"Trust me!" Lander said as he was still facing the devil and was preparing himself, "Let it go now!"

"Trust you? Why? Who are you anyways? You're just an outcast!" The spirit was now in a dilemma. Freeing the devil will only create a catastrophe but if she will persevere, she will completely die because of Professor Finn's action.

"Damn it!" Lander cursed but continued, "Because your man has already given his trust to me, can't you even sense it?"

The spirit looked at Lander and concentrated her aura and was able to really sense her lover's aura from him, "Do you know where he is? Is he fine? How is he?"

"I'll tell you when we're done here. No release it!" Lander shouted on top of his lungs.

"Okay!" The spirit agreed without hesitation.

Suddenly an ear piercing laughter was heard from the devil, "HAHAHHAAH FOOLS!"

He suddenly punched Lander with his aura engraved on it, "I'll spare you human for releasing me! HAHAHHAHAAHAHA! But you won't last long! You only have a month to live! HAHAHAHAH!"

"Were doomed!" All the professors were terrified that they lost their will as they dropped to their knees.

"No! This can't be! I'm on the verge of success," Professor Finn cried as he looked at Lander who was lying on the other side of the room, "I'll kill you!"

The devil was about to escape when he was caught by another barrier, a very formidable one.

"You won't get away this time!" Great Duke Bobby appeared together with the Emperor and the Respected Druid. The devil was struggling inside the barrier while howling but was unable to create a sound.

Professor Finn shot two arrows towards Lander but was stopped by Lord Kazo who was actually well hidden that they just noticed.

Professor Finn was like a madman who wanted to fight back but wasn't strong enough against Lord Kazo.

All the professors were delighted upon seeing the arrival of these well-knowned people. They sighed in relief and greeted them, "Thank you your highness for helping us!"

The Emperor nodded his head and looked towards Lander who was standing up dizzy. It was a very cold voice that the people around felt an instant chill, "You're the one who told our guardian spirit to let this being be freed right?"

Lander hasn't came back to his senses yet as he was wiggling, he slumped on the ground. A few seconds passed when he remembered an item he stole from the devil before it punched him, "Hello? Are you there?"

"That?" The Respected Druid was alarmed, "Where did you get that Lander?"

"Huh? Oh this round ball? I stole it from that devil the time it was been freed." Lander casually said and continued, "It was speaking to me so I think someone is locked inside, maybe?"

"What's the matter my friend?" The Emperor asked the Respected Druid with confused eyes.

"That thing is owned by the priestess of the elves, it is called the Vessel of the Royal Fairies." The Respected Druid was still shocked as he moved towards Lander not looking away from the round thing, the so called vessel.

Suddenly, the round thing shone brightly when a small flying lady emerged from it. The vessel was now gone and Lander suddenly coughed out a mouthful of black bloods.

"Quickly! Find the antidote from that devil and give it to my saviour please!" The small flying lady cried as she pleaded why streams of tears were rolling down her face.

"I greet thy Empress of the entire Fairy Clan," The Respected Druid kneeled on one knee while bowing his head.

"There's no time for pleasantries and quickly save my saviour," The Fairy Empress demanded to the Respected Druid.

"My friends, please find the antidote on that devil and save Lander!" The Respected Druid knelt on both knees towards the Emperor and Great Duke Bobby while he stretched his both hands, his head lowered and slowly touched the floor.

"What are you doing my friend?" The Emperor asked as he helped the Respected Druid stood up but the Druid never budged from his position.

"Do you really think I would abandon my disciple?" Great Duke Bobby questioned as he already went inside the barrier talking to the devil. They saw him from calm to anger then becoming a cold-blooded killer.

Once Great Duke Bobby stepped outside the barrier he was still showing his murderous character when the Respected Druid asked, "What happened my friend?"

"That devil swallowed the antidote after it was released. I searched its memory and was telling the truth!" Great Duke Bobby replied clenching his fists as he saw Lander still coughing black bloods from time to time, "Forgive me, my disciple! I am ashamed to be your master as I couldn't even save you from this predicament."

"Is there no any other solution? And what is this thing?" Lander asked pointing at the black bloods.

The Fairy Empress flew towards him, bowed down and answered, "My saviour, that is the Curse of the Demon Blood! And the only cure for that would be the antidote from them!"

Lander sighed as he showed a pain and sadness on his face, "Is this really it uncle, cousin? I can't even see you one last time before I say goodbye?"

"I'm sorry my saviour for being so selfish and got you on this predicament," The Empress Fairy bowed down while tears were still flowing down on her face.

Lander despite knowing that he's at his ends, he smiled as he atleast save a life, "Go and live your life to the fullest!"

As he said those, he slowly moved out from that place as he began crying silently.
