Chapter 429 Chapter 429 Calm Down!

"It's not your fault, Master. I understand you have been under pressure since the day of the attack. In fact, I have noticed you zoned out at random times in a day. This broke my heart, too." She held Nexus' hand gently and assured him that she will always protect him, no matter what. "

"Thank you, Crystal. For everything you did for me. I cannot thank you enough. You are the best. That's why I am appointing you with this duty. I want you to go and catch up with Nora before she reaches to meet Tiffany on the way and holds her down. In case she had reached to her and let them talk and watch them closely. If they were found arguing and or about to argue, you can interfere in between and stop Nora from attacking Tiffany in case." Nexus explained his plan to Crystal. noVeLb1n

"This sounds good! Sure, I will definitely do it. You don't have to worry and just leave everything on me, Master." Crystal got up from her place and smiled at Nexus before leaving the mansion to catch Nora in time. Nexus sighed deeply and hoped nothing had happened between Nora and Tiffany.

Crystal doesn't need a back ride to reach Nora. Her strength and ability as a succubus were enough to finish the job Nexus asked for. She left the mansion quickly and set off to search for them in time before the real disaster happened.

When the sudden realization dawned on Reaves and Tom, they both got worried for Tiffany. Tom might have given a hypothesis of his theory but the pieces filled the spaces and it made sense that Nexus was attacked to create a distraction from the actual target. Reaves perspired heavily, and he jumped quickly to save his daughter. Tom followed him to the main entrance of Jame's mansion.

"Do you see anything?" Reaves asked Tom, who was right behind him with his horse.

"Nothing, so far, but I know we will find her in time." Tom assured him.

However, it did not help at all. Reaves was drenching in sweat and thought of the sins he did in his life that now his daughter has to pay on his behalf. He loved his family dearly, and his daughter was a blessing to him. He would do anything to protect her. He prayed and hoped for his daughter's wellbeing. Even if he had to sacrifice himself to save Tiffany's life, he would do it with a smile on his face. His priority was to save her, anyhow. Running out on the road almost half of the distance covered between his mansion and Russell's fort, Reaves was nervous the entire time. Tom could interpret what Reaves was thinking, but no words came out of his mouth. If Tom would have been in such a position, he probably would be doing the same thing. For a while, he felt utterly bad for Reaves to be stuck in such a situation. But nothing could be done to console the loss of a child. Reaves was lucky he knew how to protect and keep his family safe.

On the other hand, Reaves had his mind full of thousands of thoughts of Tiffany being fine and, if not, how to save her and bring her back home. So far, he did not notice anything unusual and assumed Tiffany would be still at Russell's fort. If not for Tom's assumption that came out of the blue, he wouldn't have understood the actual gameplay. But if Tom's assumptions weren't true and nothing had happened, he still wouldn't risk it. He will protect his daughter at any cost.

Tim noticed something as his gaze narrowed in the dark spaces. "Did you see that too?" He asked from Reaves.

Reaves turned his head to notice but failed, so, however, he didn't take Tom lightly. A few seconds later, they heard a loud sound before the explosion. The shock waves passed through them, which made the horse jolted by the impact. The black cloud took the shape of an oversized mushroom and the echoes of silent screams were heard. For the brief moment, Reave and Tom remained silent, progressing with what happened suddenly until Reaves came to his senses that an explosion happened. These thoughts went straight to her daughter and at the top of his lungs, he screamed her name.

"TIFFANY!!!!!"

Tom halted as his eyes widened in fear. The explosion appeared massive and there would be casualties if he wasn't wrong. He couldn't catch a breath, but when he spotted Reeve's face, he found him lost, hopeless and scared. In time, he jumped and put Reaves out of his zone.
