Before he knew it, Alex turned his back from the enemy to go back to Abigail. He was about to leap towards her, but the rogue vampires mobbed him from behind, taking advantage of him getting distracted.
In a split second, blood gushed out of Alex's body as the multiple attacks pierced through his flesh. A victorious gleam flashed across the vampires' eyes upon seeing the great Alexander was being mobbed and was now in a bloody state.
However, before the rogue vampires could smirk in triumph, as if something exploded in their midst, the vampires surrounding Alex were thrown away from him like rag dolls. Their bodies were in pieces as they fall to the ground.
Alex then emerged, his eyes that were peering through his dripping wet hair didn't turn gold. They remained bloody red, but they had gone completely catastrophic, cold, and ruthless.
His feet moved again as if nothing happened as he approached the circle protecting his wife. The rogue vampire had come after him from behind again, but he effortlessly slashed them all with his bloodthirsty blade, as if he had an extra eye at the back of his head.
Upon reaching the circle, Alex cleared his way through the rogue vampires, killing anyone who dared block his path. His gaze locked on Abi's face as the thick mists began to envelop them. Alex knew she was about to do it, so he leaped towards her before he would lose sight of her because of the thick mists.
When Alex was training Abi, he had realized that his sight couldn't penetrate through the thick white mists thAt Abi was controlling. He thought that it might be because he was a halfling, but he had called Kai that day, and the result was the same. It appeared that even though vampires could see through the darkness, their power of sight couldn't get through Abigail's mists.
This was why Alex didn't want her to use her power when he wasn't right next to her. Because he was worried to death, he didn't want to lose sight of her, even for a second. Gladly, he was able to make it.
The thick mists already enveloped them when Alex landed before her. And then, abruptly, the mists turned into deadly, sharp weapons floating still in the air. They were in the form of small needles and knives, and there were also bigger blades.
Abi's eyes were closed as she controlled the sharp silver-bluish crystals to move and attack the rogue vampires. The moment the weapons moved, blood poured out from the bodies of rogue vampires outside their circle. The rogue vampires fell on the ground, one after another.
So when they saw that the mists turned into weapons and killed the enemies, they let out the breaths they didn't know they were holding in since the mists appeared.
As the enemies' bodies covered the ground, the elite vampires turned to the middle of their circle. Their eyes glowed with nothing but wonder and disbelief as they looked at Alexander's wife.
Abigail still had her arms wide open as Alexander stood behind her. Her dark hair was floating behind her like black silk, reflecting against her silver cloak. Her eyes were closed, but her face seemed to be glowing. At that moment, everyone felt like they saw a goddess.
When she opened her eyes, the crystals that were already painted red disappeared and turned to mists again. The mists crawled on the ground, covering the dead bodies from their sights.
Silence reigned as the mists settled right below the knees. None of the enemies were left standing.
The elite vampires realized that the source of the power wasn't Alexander, nor the witch queen. It was this human they thought was someone powerless. Just who the hell was she?
They began to question why they had to protect someone this powerful, especially since they had just witnessed her protecting them all instead.
"Good job, wife," Alex whispered from behind Abi. He knew that this was the perfect time for Abi to use her power because Alex could already tell that Dinah was hiding in a closed place again. After all, that woman certainly knew about Alex's capability of controlling the wind and Alicia's ability to control plants. That woman was staying underground for these reasons, so using Abi's power now was the best decision. They needed the elite vampires' strength once they reached underground, and aside from that, they need to get through this quickly.
Abi let out a deep breath. She didn't feel right, but she was glad she could finally help. Her heart was in chaos. She didn't know what she was feeling, but her brain kept telling her that she had to do this. This was what she always wanted. To help Alex and fight alongside him, so she had to toughen her heart.
"Are they all gone?" she asked as she buried her face in Alex's chest.
"Mm. They're gone." The mists were disappearing, so she tried not to look at the bodies she had just killed. Alex knew that, so he pulled her in his embrace, and he signaled everyone to move a little farther from the dead bodies.
"Alex," Kai immediately pulled their attention as soon as they landed on the ground again. "The witch… the witch queen's gone," he said, and everyone's eyes widened.
"What? Alicia?" Abi was shocked. She looked around, and she really couldn't see the queen. "H-how? She was just standing right next to me!" she panicked when Raven, who was left standing where the dead bodies lie, as he faced another plateau from afar, spoke.
"Riev disappeared as well."
