Chapter 100 - I Know Where It Is...

Emmy just heard Alex mentioning dear brother and at the next instance, he jumped through the window.

Alex reached the graveyard in a jiffy but he was very quiet to not alarm his dearest stepbrother who was banished to the northern towers by the Salian elders, now searching something here on the old graveyard.

" Dear brother, would you need some help in searching for whatever thing you are searching for?"

Victor wasn't expecting anyone on this land at this particular time, so he freaked out when Alex surprised him from his back. Victor who already had his hand broken, couldn't balance his body from this sudden fright and fell down on the ground landing on his butt.

Alex wanted to laugh but still offered his hand to Victor who had fallen down. But to his surprise, this was not Victor at all, this person was just an imposter. Alex was able to identify it from the eyes, Victor's eyes always had viciousness and hid all the emotions well in his eyes but this man was really frightened after seeing Alex.

It was like someone else wanted to use this imposter to do his dirty deeds and then blame Victor or the Salian clan for it. Before the man tried to escape, Emmy and master Neshag came to the scene but preferred not to interrupt Alex with his interrogation.

At the first glance itself, both of them could recognise that this man was just an imposter and only resembled Victor in body shape, the facial feature was normal and there were no special features like Victor at all.

" Just one answer, who sent you here ?"

The person didn't seem to be anxious, he laughed all of a sudden after hearing Alex's question. He carefully sat on the rock beside him and scrutinised Alex carefully.

" Do you think I am scared of you? Even if you try a thousand times, I won't tell you my identity nor you can find me after today. I may look like your stepbrother, don't you want to know why?"

Alex felt something suspicious from the very beginning, as he knew Victor well but this man had a great part of resemblance to Victor's body structure. Although, he didn't bother to ask because this type of tricks was not found in this world but the Demar brothers once had mentioned that the core world usually made impersonators in order to infiltrate the clans and destroy them with one blow.

" Who is your master then ?"

The man sneered and tried to walk away from Alex with pride and Alex couldn't move at all. It was like someone had cast a spell on him. Watching the other man walk away and Alex not moving, master Neshag and Emmy made a pact quickly. He followed the man whereas Emmy rushed towards Alex. 

Alex couldn't move a muscle but he could hear well, he felt someone was approaching him and by the sound of footsteps, he knew it was a woman. Emmy came and shook Alex's whole body. Just with her touch, Alex could move his body but Emmy both hands were suddenly numb. She tried to open and close her fists to release the numbness feelings but it was strangely giving her hands more strength.

" Emmy, are you alright? That person isn't Victor, he is an imposter. I bet he is not one from our clans. Where did he go ?"

Emmy felt a chill suddenly and she turned back to see nothing. However, she was sure that there was something behind her at that time but in order not to spook Alex, she kept quiet.

" Master Neshag is following him, let us go quickly there."

Emmy and Alex rushed to the path where she saw master Neshag went before they separated, a fierce fight was what welcomed both of them. Alex was surprised to see the full vigour of master Neshag and he couldn't believe such a strong person was playing dumb with him in the past years. They used to spar and Alex thought that he could match up with his uncle but now he knew that the combat master was just letting him win. The person he saved was the supreme combat master and never once took his complete strength out.

" Neshag … Neshag… I never thought you would side with the person who killed our families and even forced himself on the woman you loved."

Amidst the fight, the other man ( now in Victor's looks) was trying to hit Neshag's bottom lines. The person knew that every time the woman has been mentioned, then Neshag would lose all his rationalities. Yes, that man was absolutely correct, by mentioning the woman he loved, Neshag lost his focus and soon the other man was winning the fight.

Finally, the man struck Neshag's chest directly but before Neshag could dodge it, he saw Alex and Emmy standing in front of them and the strike perfectly landed on his shoulders.

"Ahhhhh…."

Neshag hissed with pain but he couldn't accept defeat anymore. He tried to stand up, however, his opponent raised his foot and kept it over his chest, squashing him to the ground with force.

" Demetrick, never will you nor that witch would win this time. The gods have listened to my prayers, our supreme heir has returned and will wipe out that witch and her army once in for all."

The person named Demetrick was also from the Yalasgue tribe but he sided with the sorceress and fight against the Zucathore clan and the black army. 

" Neshag, sorceress has successfully killed the main obstacles from her way years ago, now just left are those three old fools. Once we find the Ravenics, then the young lad who is under their protection will be killed mercilessly. I wanted to kill him today but until we find the Ravenics, we won't strike anyone."

Alex suddenly felt a chill all over his body whereas Emmy was losing her control on her emotions, the dull pain on her head was increasing and she was losing focus of her eyes.

From Demetrick's words, Neshag knew that he hadn't spotted Alex and Emmy yet but he didn't know how to make those two leave and reach master Rotrigues's protection fastly.

" I won't allow it Demetrick, you have to kill me first to hurt him. "

" Haa..haa... " Demetrick's cruel laugh echoed in the land, the setting sun made his appearance scarier.

" I will fulfil your wish today Neshag, I know the Ravenics is here ...where its reflection can be seen on the frozen waterfall and no sun is powerful to warm the hall. It is hidden in front of your eyes but no one knows correctly where it lies..."

Demetrick applied force over his foot and it made Neshag spit out blood, blood started oozing out from his nose and mouth.

" It is your end Neshag, die and be with your woman." Demetrick laughed evilly and raised his foot for the last strike but just as he wanted to squash his dreaded enemy, he was thrown away by a large force.

Alex quickly helped master Neshag up and started giving him first aid.

" Emmy, we need to take him to the infirmary as soon as possible, he is losing heartbeats."

" You go..."

" Emmy, but please that guy is from the core world, we aren't powerful enough to take him down. Let him go this time."

" I SAID YOU GO….."

Emmy then shouted at Alex, the fierceness in her eyes clearly showed Alex, those green eyes covered her usual brown eyes. Alex gulped and couldn't say anything more. The frightening look made him obey Emmy without any objections and he left quickly with Neshag on his shoulders.

Demetrick who was kicked on his abdomen suffered quite a heavy blow, he never knew any person who could have this much strength even to defeat him. He got up and looked at the field where he saw a petite girl standing with her head lowered.

Walking over towards the petite figure, Demetrick sneered. He would never believe that it was this frail-looking girl who kicked him a little while before.

" Woman, I have no grudges with you, now scram from here."

Still, the woman had no reaction and she still stood there with her head lowered, Demetrick was never a good man from the very beginning, so he thought of even playing with this weak woman tonight.

" Okay, I guess your friends must have left you here alone. Come, tonight I will give you protection on my bed."

Demetrick came forward and raised his hands to touch Emmy's shoulders.

Just then strong winds started blowing, Demetrick was shocked to see the scene in front of him. He couldn't breathe for the next few seconds and unconsciously knelt down before the petite woman.

The woman raised her head and her lips had a sneer pasted on them. Her green eyes shone brightly and a murderous aura slowly surrounded the petite figure.

" Long time no see Demetrick."
