Chapter 119 - Gratitude

Rex looked at the ashes that remained. It seemed like the three demons or half demons who were tying to threaten were all dead.

The speciality of the true hell fire was that even the soul would get destroyed due to which one wouldn't be able to reincarnate or be burn again.

Rex knew it very well and despite knowing, he used it as if he wanted to punish them no matter what.

All the women who were sitting on the ground looked towards Rex and his shadow which was huge.

It was probably because of the sunlight that was casted now. The sun seemed to be exactly behind Rex and it seemed as if he was painted with golden yellow light.

They all were quite shocked and didn't know what to tell after looking at the view.

It was literally beyond their imaginations. Their eyes were widely.

"Ah... it's morning already?", Rex looked towards the sky and said this.

He didn't even realise when the time passed by. It seemed like he was too busy to even think about that.

He was indeed surprised to know that it was already morning, but the ones who were even more surprised were all the females that were present there.

"S-Sky!!! It's the sky!!!", they shouted.

There were tears in their eyes and none of them could even fathom as what had happened. All they could think was it to be some miracle.

Kisara who was also just behind Rex was shocked at the sight.

Because if the curse, all the females could barely even get a glimpse of the sky as weird clouds always kept surrounding the forest.

They would hardly let any sun light enter. The trees that were covering the entire forest would eventually die if they hadn't received any sun light and because of that the only way that was left was to use artificial lights.

The women tried to replace the actual sun light with a source of artificial light which would act like the sun.

They were successfully able to discover a form of stones that gave out light on their own.

During day time, no matter how much clouds covered the forest, at least some amount of brightness could be seen and during that time the stones or crystals would absorb the light. At the night time, the same stones would emit the same light which they had absorbed earlier.

Thanks to this the trees were saved and didn't go extinct but that didn't mean that they could produce fruits or vegetables. For that another requirement was made and they practically did a sort of farming by growing foods for their own.

"Oh fish! Mom and dad would be worrying about me!", Rex realized that he had taken an awful amount of time.

He practically stayed a whole night outside the casylendue to which there might have been a commotion caused definitely.

"Bandis... Zor... I guess we should get going immediately...", Rex said.

Bandis and Zor nodded their heads and agreed to what Rex said.

Rex was about to use the long range teleportation magic and return as soon as possible when suddenly Kisara stopped him.

"P-please Wait!!!", she shouted.

It broke Rex's concentration and he looked towards her.

"What's the matter?", he asked.

"Please, can you wait for a while?", she asked.

"Huh?", Rex was confused by what she was asking and started to think about it.

Kisara was desperate to stop Rex because she had to thank him. More than that the oracle was correct and all the curses that were present in the man's seemed to disappear.

That was basically thanks to the disappearance of the evil energy which wa sbasically absorbed by Rex's Demon God Crest!

She knew that the oracle was true and understood that it was mentioning about Rex!

More than that she had heard something about the legendary 'Chronos' just a while ago from the screams of the skeleton.

She was totally confused and just to understand that she asked him to stop.

"Oh well... since I'm already late it won't matter if I stay for a bit more...", he said.

"Thank you!", Kisara smiled and thanked him by bowing her head.

He too smiled back but his heart was at unrest. He couldn't think of anything other than his parents.

He could relate it somehow and could actually feel it probably because he had seen them cry just some hours ago.

'If they don't see me, then they might think that I ran away again...', was what he thought.

But now that he had agreed to wait here, he couldn't possibly just leave abruptly.

"Hmm...", he was thinking of the best possible thing to do when suddenly Zormugand who had been constantly watching Rex cake closer to him.

"Master, is something wrong?", he asked as he was worried about him.

"Huh? What...?", Rex couldn't hear him because he was lost in his own thoughts.

"I asked if everything was alright Master, your face looked a bit pale...", was what Zor said.

"Ah, Actually I...", before he could say about the problem that he had in mind, he got an idea due to which he paused.

"Zor, can you help me a bit?", he asked this instead of replying to what Zor has asked.

Zor didn't mind it and just nodded his head and asked, "Yes master?"

"Actually, I want you to return back to the castle and inform dad and mom that I am alright and I will be arriving soon...", he said this to Zor.

"Oh, alright Master I will do it right away!", Zor smiled and replied it.

He understood why Rex was worried now and thought that this was the best way for him to help Rex right now.

"Okay master, I will take my leave...", immediately after saying that and hearing Rex's reply, Zor vanished all of a sudden in front of all of them.

"Whaaaattt!!!?", all the women were shocked when they say that.

They couldn't even believe their eyes. They even doubted if Zor actually existed in the first place.

'Sigh, he could have used teleportation magic somewhere where there was no one...', Rex made a weird expression after looking at all the females reactions.

'Ah, how did I forget... Zor always wanted to make the best exit and best entry...', he remembered a moment of the past and smiled a bit.

Rex then looked at all the females who were still surprised even after a while had passed by. It was the same for Kisara too.

Rex didn't want to waste time anyway, so he intimated the talk, "Ya, you asked me to wait... can you tell me why?"

Kisara who was in her own world after being awed suddenly came back to her senses.

She heard what Rex said and then nodded her head and said, "Please, can you come to our village for a while..."

Rex wanted to reject right away because he was already late, but when he looked at all the women's plea, he couldn't reject and ended up accepting.

"Alright... I'll come..."

"Yesss!!!", some of them expressed their signs of happiness while some showed the tears which were of Joy.

"This way...", Kisara basically showed the way for Rex that lead to their village but Rex didn't move forward.

"Is... is something wrong?", Kisara asked.

"Wait a minute...", he said and then went towards Soria who had earlier tried to stab him.

She was unconscious right now and probably it was because of Rex's voice when he had used the dominating pressure.

He purposely used it on her to so that she could faint and it actually worked.

"Please... please don't save that traitor...", Kisara said while clenching her fist.

Rex paused when he heard that. He took a look at other females too and got to know that they detested her for commuting such grace sin.

Rex couldn't just let an innocent girl be rendered as a traitor throughout the history because of which he decided to help her.

She had lost a huge amount of blood and had already died and probably that was why he came back towards her in order to heal her.

"HEAL...", he just said this one word which posing his left hand towards Soria who was lying on the ground while covered in blood.

"Please... don't...", Kisara ultimately knelt in front of Rex.

A part of her heart was trying to stop Rex while a Part was hapoy that he was healing her. She had a lot of memories with her and that was why she considered her like a sister.

But her betrayal had already destroyed her heart because of which she didn't want to show any mercy.

The girl slowly recovered and all her wounds had been restored but she was still not breathing.

'Huh...?', Rex was shocked when he saw then and was a bit confused.

'Why didn't she wake up yet?', he asked himself and while trying to find the answer he stumbled upon something which made him realise that the spell heal was useless right now.

'DIVINE EYES...', his eyes suddenly glew with golden light and he could see clearly what was wrong.

"Ah? I thought so...", he said.

Kisara and all others suddenly heard him saying that.

"Is... is something wrong?", Kisara asked.

"Well, he Soul is stuck... half of the soul is within her body and half is outside...", he said.

"What!!!?", Kisara shouted.

The remaining females experienced a similar shock after hearing that.

"So that means she can't be saved right?", she said.

"No well she..."

"Haha, even nature wants her to die...", she sighed while controlling her tears.

"No, I can..."

"Even the Gods have descided to abandon her... we should also move on...", she said.

"...", Rex was now mum because she wasn't giving him any chance to speak in the first place.

"Master... lets go...", she said.

"..."
