Chapter 144 - Plight For One, Delight For Another

At the Ludacris family.

"What did you say, the Salian clan's prodigy is in coma?"

Although Taran and Cynthia ( Talsha's parents) were shocked to hear about the happenings, the vibe given by her grandfather made Talsha a bit surprised.Her father had called their family physician and he had given Talsha the required medical aid. 

With most parts of her body bandaged, Talsha quietly stared across the window into the horizon.Grandfather had asked her parents to leave her to rest and no one was allowed to disturb her.

A while later, the door slowly creaked open, stopping the deadpan stare which had been continuing for hours now, Talsha turned to see her grandfather approaching.

"Miss, I never expected to see you in such a dire situation."

Talsha was intrigued watching her grandfather's behaviour. The man which she admired and respected from her childhood was kneeling down beside her bed with much loyalty.

" So I still have the chance to reverse the situation." Talsha sneered.

" Rise Phelixtros.. You are too old for that. I never thought you could hide so well. Good, those three fools have long perished, now with your emergence, my plans can be executed much earlier than expected ."

"Also, do not call me Miss anymore, we have to continue the role of grandfather and granddaughter, that is going to be the safest way till my powers get rejuvenated."

"As you wish, Tali… one more thing…if you could allow Demetrick to join the sect, then the plan would be absolutely flawless and this time , the Esbertrazian clan would be in history forever."

Talsha just nodded her head as she heard footsteps approaching. Through the opened door entered Cynthia and Taran.

"My baby girl, are you okay now?"

Taran always pampered her daughter to the moon, so it was common for him to be worried this much.

"Yes, father. Your daughter is healthy enough to go on a fishing trip with you now."

"Haha, that is the power of the Ludacris bloodline, Cynthia, let us all go for a small picnic tomorrow, please make necessary arrangements. Also, Taran! Call the physician to check on her again. I don't want our precious little one to sustain any hidden injuries."

Seeing the colours returning to their daughter's face, the Ludacris family rejoiced. They planned for a fishing trip on the next day as Talsha wished. Cynthia had made the perfect arrangements and she along with her husband were given the task of catching the fish to make a delicious dinner while grandfather- granddaughter pair, were basking in the sun nearby.

"According to my sources near the Esbertrazian clan, there are no unusual sightings in the clan nor any mysterious person observed. "

Hearing the report, Talsha's left eye started twitching. 

"Dig a little more, I have good feeling that my sister might have left her piece of heart somewhere inside Esbertrazian grounds"

"Piece of heart ? Is that possible?"

Talsha frowned her brows, her subordinates were powerful but their intellectual skills were straight to the bottom, totally close to nothing.She shook her head and thought to herself, never to use any literal perspective while talking with her minions.

" Nevermind, I shall explain it to you for the first and last time, a piece of her heart means most precious, invaluable to her. Till now I guessed that it would be her three leftover acolytes but no, it is precisely something or someone else. I could feel her being at the attack and that power was familiar. A little too familiar…"

"Well , I shall ask my people to explore their side more. Miss, after you recover, is it not easy for us to take that boy straight to our Dark palace and destroy the seal completely?"

Talsha stood up slowly as if she was in great pain, then she raised her hands to wave to her parents who were looking at her, from the other side of the lake. Turning to face her grandfather, Talsha replied, " yes, it is much easier but if that guy wakes up, he can bring catastrophe. Before he awakes, first I have to restore my power as well as regain my soul power completely. "

" Last time, when I allowed the fusion of our power on Byron, he was so powerfully evil, a total maniac, that he annihilated the whole Yalasgue tribe in a day. However, due to his soul power , he could regain his wits after some time…

But this man.. It is a tough nut, he has the bloodline of both Zucathore and Yalasgue tribe, so the power awakening could make him a formidable opponent or a complete idiot."

Phelixtros could not imagine the severity of the issue but from the seriousness emitted from his Miss, he knew that the result would be totally devastating.

"Anyway as it is said, the plight for one could be a delight for another, I hope when he wakes up , he should become the maniac and then the whole Esbertrazian clan would be perished under his power."

Finishing their discussion, Talsha walked over to her parents side and took the fishing rod in her hand. Taran had fished out quite a few and Cynthia had already started the cooking fire.

Patting her daughter's head who was focussed on catching at least one fish, Taran went away to help his lovable wife. Even after trying hard, Talsha could not even catch a fish. Finally it dawned on her, she quietly put her hand in the water and closed her eyes.

Nothing happened.

Anger rushed into Talsha's brain, she could not believe that the attack would take her innate abilities as well. Her abilities to control people and communicate with any living being through telepathy were cut off.

" You are declaring war against me huh, sister… this time I shall crush you harder, making every ounce of life in you to be squeezed out. You just wait… Maran betrayed me for you… but my prince charming this time is different, he is the evilest of all evil in the universe.. The ultimate victory shall be mine."
