Chapter 627 - Climax 39...

Xio Lee quickly gave a back kick to the lock with his shoes in much anger. He had made the lady hold herself tight, just in case he makes the door of the cage to fall down. The lock fell open in just a split of second and Lee opened the door rushing towards Elizabeth. He touched her lightly with his hand and could feel that the girl was still shivering. "It is ok sweetie. I will not leave you alone now. I promise."He bent down on his knees looking at her carefully and lovingly.

Elizabeth looked up at him with teary eyes and hugged him lovingly." Promise? You will never leave me?"

"I promise." Xio Lee nodded his head in a yes and encircled his arms around her gently and they both hugged each other for a very long time. Xio Lee kissed the lady's forehead lovingly again and again and the lady now looked visibly calmer.

"Ahem! Guys? Do not start making out in front of these dead bodies. They might feel jealous. This is not a nice place to romance."Stefen chuckled so as to make the moment a little lighter.

Xio Lee and Elizabeth chuckled too, while the man was still planting kisses on her head.

Stefen then turned to look at James who had even now covered his face in Stefen's shoulders. "Boy, do you also need kisses now? Move away." He jerked the boy away making James laugh instantly.

"You know our family is really weird. No matter what the situation, we always end up romancing."Stefen once again nodded his head in disapproval chuckling everybody. The atmosphere had now lightened up a bit and Lee held Elizabeth's hand as they walked out of the cage. The four of them were now holding one torch each in their hands.

Elizabeth too looked around the room in shock and disgust looking at the bodies all around them. "Just when I thought the man could not get any worse." She took a deep breaths feeling extreme hatred for the man.

They all started to walk towards the door, but then it was Xio Lee who did not move and was thinking something very carefully.

"What is it master?" Stefen asked the man in confusion.

"Stef! You remember reading in that book about black magic. It was written that in the black magic they do not have to bury or burn the bodies or...." Xio Lee spoke pondering carefully.

"Or... the magic will vanish. Yes I remember. But what happened?" Stefen asked in curiosity.

"Surely, the dark forces you felt was nothing else but from these bodies. Which means it is the dark effect of the magic done on these bodies. What if we put them on fire and set their soul and body free?" Xio Lee asked looking at the three of them.

"That is a perfect idea master!" James looked excitedly at the bodies.

"Yes I am in too. Poor souls, at least their bodies need this much respect." Elizabeth looked at the bodies in remorse, wondering if their families must still be waiting for them to come back. She had understood from the conversation itself that these bodies had to something with black magic.

"So what do you think will happen when we burn them? And what about us? Where are we headed to?" Stefen asked in confusion.

"We still need to start from where we started. But this time together!"Xio Lee smiled and they all smiled too nodding their heads in an affirmation.

Soon they dispersed and walked towards the dead bodies in different directions, setting them on fire one by one. Within seconds, the room was lit up with tremendous fire, as the bodies started to burn. After every few meters they were now putting the bodies on fire and soon a gigantic pile of bodies was also set on fire.

They all stood together near the door and smiled looking the fire lighting up the room. Thought they could not save the people but at least they get to save their bodies and souls trapped in the black magic. For the first time, this place was lit up so tremendously and they all walked back towards the first room ready to set it on fire too.

After a few more minutes, they had set the bodies of the other room on fire too and Stefen could no longer feel the dark forces in this area, as he felt before entering the room. He smiled looking at Xio Lee. "You were right master. Those dark forces, I felt was indeed the magic black magic. I am so happy we are doing this."

Xio Lee smiled back at the boy as they four were once again walking in the long tunnel, crossing every broken door one by one. Soon they reached the gigantic room, were they had found the black magic books earlier.

"We are here again." Xio Lee sighed feeling a little out of breath again. "Whew! That place really had major effect. I feel s out of breath already." He nodded his head in disapproval. "We need to figure out to go out of that ceiling hole. I do not think, there is any other way out from this place. We cannot go back to the snake tunnel as it must be flooded with venom. This is our last resort." He spoke as all of them looked at the round snake hole right at the top of the ceiling.

"Wait a second. I am sure there is another way out. I do not remember crawling in any snake hole, even if our eyes were closed. I think we are missing out something." Elizabeth looked around the room trying to study it carefully. She started to walk around in the room, looking for a door or any outlet for them to go out of this room.

The three men who heard Elizabeth's words carefully also tried to find something that Lee and Stefen might have missed before.
