Chapter 68 - Knowing Inside Out Of This Place

All along the way the two brothers and two sisters did not have any conversation. Just before reaching the inn, Houlson took the lead and led them inside the inn. 

At the front, Jordan and Alex were surprised by the entry of the two women. Silently, Alex stood up and went inside without even looking at the four people who entered the inn. This reaction of Alex made Eliza a little scared whereas Kiara had a questioning gaze on her face. 

While the situation turned really awkward when Alex went away, Jordan was simply staring at the Demar brothers. In his mind, Jordan was asking them whether they were crazy to invite two women from this world straight to their safe zone.

" Jordan, the situation is not like the way you think."

Houlson tried to explain but Jordan didn't heed to the innocent looks of the two women. As Leon was trying to tell Jordan about the two sisters, Alex returned followed by his brother and the other three women.

Kiara felt much better when she saw the other three women. For the first smile, Houlson saw Kiara's smile, now it was his heart beating fast but he firmly looked away.

Emmy saw the two women and she welcomed them warmly. She introduced each one of them and before the newcomers had any ideas, she also let them know about the couples of the group.

Eliza felt like she was finally safe, from her childhood, she saw her sister training hard to safeguard them but now after meeting this group of youngsters, she sensed a secure feeling but she was over the moon for another reason.

The group had allowed them to stay here till they wanted, that meant she could see Leon as much as she could. Although she didn't know anything about this handsome guy, she knew that this time she had fallen bad for this guy. 

Looking at her sister, Kiara knew that this girl was going to be lovesick soon. When Janet came forward to show the sisters their room, Kiara stopped everyone. She then took a parchment from the desk and wrote something over there and gave it to Emmy. Even Eliza was wondering what her sister was trying to say to these people. Her sister is never a person who takes initiation for meeting people. This was the first time, even Eliza was seeing this face of Kiara.

Emmy took the paper and after reading it, she was surprised. She gave the note to Alex, who circulated among others.

" Who are you then ?"

Eliza was shell shocked and quickly turned to face her sister. She used sign language, communicated with her sister.

" Why did you tell them about us?"

" Trust me, Lee, these people are not from here, I believe they are coming from our father's place. They can help us to get back and… for the first time, I saw my little sister wishing for something. Lee, our parents always told us, to win a relationship, be truthful always."

Eliza looked at her sister once again, her eyes by now had glistened due to the unshed tears. This was her sister, always thought about others and did things courageously.

Eliza then slowly explained them to the group. How their ancestors dared to go against the leaders of the black world, each and every member of their family was hunted down. Their father had fled to some other place with their mother and Kiara was just four years old then. His friend had helped him to escape from here but he too was killed for helping them.

"Later, after three years, these people had found out their family and killed their father too but mother and my sister were spared from the killing but captured and brought back to this place. Here our mother also passed away after four years after giving birth to me. My sister has been training from a young age and she knows the in and out of this world. Her reflexes are pretty sharp, that is why she was able to recognise you aren't from this world."

Alex and his friends looked at each other, finally, it was good to find someone who was in their league and knew well about the Black world.

Now the group had a total of 10 members, the next day, they split up into four groups and went in search of more details about jade as well as Ravenic book in four directions respectively. Mike and Juliet volunteered to stay at the inn listening to the voices inside the leader's mansion.

Emmy and Alex decided to take the area towards the South while Janet and Jordan took the North. To give Eliza more chances, Kiara volunteered herself to go with Houlson to the East area where the leader's mansion was located. The Final pair, Eliza and Leon took the west area which was the community area.

Alex and Emmy wandered amongst the market area and after walking more towards the southern direction found the iron bars separating out the land and dense forest.

" I think we should see what this dense forest is hiding from us. Just by breathing this air, I feel so refreshed."

Alex also felt that the dense forest in front of them had many tales to tell them. Without wasting any time, both of them crossed the iron bars. 

Just as they kept their foot on the grounds of the forests, in the nearby mountains, a scream was heard. A man sitting next to the unburnt fire pit looked towards the entrance of the cave and then summoned his follower quickly.

" Tell leader1, the person for whose blood the leader is thirsty, has set his foot over our land."

However, when the person finished his sentence, suddenly the firepit inside the cave was on fire with green flames. The blazing green hot flames slowly encircled him. It squeezed his neck and a whispered tone was echoed inside the cave.

" Evildarian, it is time for you to die."
