Zane looked at Liam like he was crazy. He didn't know how Liam was trying to help him. And if I took Liam's side to save his life, it was likely that Ella would be out to kill me as well. Luke, who also knew the fact, tightly grabbed my hand to prevent me from going anywhere.
"You can't," Luke squeezed my hand.
"There's no way Ella would kill me, she loves me," Zane yelled at Liam.
"It's ok, it'll only hurt for a moment. It will be a worthy sacrifice," Ella staggered as she got up.
"You love me too, right?" Ella walked towards him.
The air pressure quickly dropped while a sudden breeze began to pick up in the room. Zane's eyes widened as he realized it must be from Ella. Liam's warning was starting to seem more viable by the passing minute as the guests ran to evacuate.
"We should run too," Luke pulled my arm.
"He doesn't deserve to die!" I was forcibly being dragged to the entrance. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/my-bothersome-life_10609696606076405/girl-in-love-(8)_48876441223362614 for visiting.
"He's going to die," I struggled to get out of his grip.
"Then you're going to die," Luke spun to face me.
"Do you ever think of the people who will be left alone in this world after you die? Do you ever consider how I'll feel if you die?" Luke recalled the times where I ran into danger.
"What about your parents?" Luke reminded me.
He was right. How would my current parents feel, sending their young daughter to the first district, for her to return to them dead? I always thought since I had the second chance card, it would be better if I was the one to die if it couldn't be avoided. This was why when others mourned over me, thinking I was dead, it was such a gut-wrenching feeling.
The structure of the mansion began to crumble as if a small tornado was being to form inside the building. Soon, the entrance was blocked from all the rocks. Liam stood in front of Zane, protecting him from Ella who looked like she was out to murder him.
"Get out of the way Liam," Ella couldn't get past him.
Liam muttered to manipulate the ground, producing a dirt shield to fend against the storm. However, the shields were quickly shattered as he continued his spell to produce more. Golems were also roaming around to prevent her from coming closer. They attempted to push back the wind with their bodies as they walked forward together.
Meanwhile, Zane searched to find an exit that wasn't blocked by all the rocks. We were stuck in this cage with no exit as their fight intensified. Luke frowned as everything was starting to shake, including the ceiling, making all the lights fall down towards us.
He produced a barrier, strong enough to protect the both of us as we silently watched the fight with no other choice. The more we walked around to find an exit, the higher chance something would fall on us on the way. It was better staying in a relatively safe spot. Plus, it consumed more mana when you had a constantly moving barrier.
"There's no guarantee that your brother will turn into a fairy," Liam shouted.
When Ella's emotions got stronger, all his spells broke from her anger. Liam immediately ran to protect an air slash heading towards Zane as she switched her focus. Liam acted like a shield as his body became rough from the wind trying to push him around, baring most of the brunt attacks from Ella. Wind slashed him as if it was a sword, producing cuts all over his body.
"He will and we'll always be together afterwards!" Ella screamed.
"Why are you so against us from being together?" She slammed Liam against the wall.
"Why is everyone against our love?" She cried as Liam slid down the wall, not attacking her, afraid of hurting her.
"You'll regret killing him," Liam coughed.
"Although your brother loves you, does he love you enough to die for you?" He pointed out Zane trembling in fear.
It was clear that Zane did love her with all his heart. Maybe once upon a time, he loved her as much as she loved him. However, as time passed, he tried to move on. He tried dating other girls who resembled Ella, her gentle face and bright eyes like his. He expanded his world, trying to forget his lost love.
He was happy when he discovered she was watching over him. He would do anything to see her face again. But when he figured out, he would never be able to see or hear her, what was he supposed to do? Was he supposed to live a life where he would pretend, she was with him at all times?
Was he willing to live a life where he would be stuck on her forever? Like now, wallowing in his miseries, ruining his life in the process? It was like all these thoughts were coming into his head as he fled for his life. Would he be able to spend his entire life on her? He didn't want to live such a life where he felt like trash anymore.
Liam, who he had hated that he would be willing to exchange his life for his revenge, staggered. His entire body was a mess with all the bruises, cuts and sliced limbs when he wasn't able to dodge a big attack in time. He sadly smiled while Ella was beginning to kill him in the process. He was a person who was willing to die for Ella.
