118 Chapter 118: The Death

Emy hastily exited the room. She searched for a supply of salt. However, all the rooms in that building are locked. Emy approached Niko’s bodyguards who were laying outside a room while panting.

‘In Avery’s bag,’ Emy whispers.

She dashed inside the room where their things had been placed. Emy looked for Avery’s bag but couldn’t find it.

‘Where did Avery’s bag go?’ – Emy.

Meanwhile, despite the enormous power encircling the demon, it fled. Devin threw out and collided with a car, making a loud noise all around. Everyone’s attention was drawn to the car, which began making noise for no apparent reason. Reed flung out at a group of people in the distance who had been surprised by their unexpected fall. The group felt something strike them, but they couldn’t see what it was. Fear gripped all present because of the incident that was happening. Those present began yelling and exited the area in their cars. Reed rose and moved back towards the monster. There were many people there, and some were in confusion because of the haste to escape. Reed collapsed once again after being struck by a fast car. He hurled himself to the side.

They began searching for the monster. Reed can’t use the demon dagger until he captures the demon. He looked at Devin, who was approaching the monster.

“I will not let loose, you piece of trash!” Devin spits dark blood. He kept walking. He had an iron in his palm, curled with black smoke.

Devin dashed forward and struck at the creature. Devin swiftly ducked his iron pipe and swung it at the monster, but he couldn’t hit it. Reed inhaled deeply and stood motionless while Devin fought. Devin moves quickly, but the monster is not far behind. Because of what they did, they hit a few people and cars, which caused even more chaos.

Reed sprang up and grabbed the garden railing, breaking a long chunk of iron. He twisted it over in his palm and approached Devin and the monster. Reed teleported to the opposite side of the monster. Reed dashed forward, dodging the iron he was carrying to strike the demon, but it was quick. He even pursued them as he dashed amid the tombs. Devin and Reed leaped together, teleported, and immediately assaulted the monster, but it moved quickly.

.....

Emy dashed after Devin and Reed. Avery’s bag was strapped to his body and contained two kilograms of salt. Emy paused for a time, then resumed her run. Emy has difficulty following the two men since they move fast and keep up with the pace of the opposing demon. That’s why he devised a new strategy to keep the group together. But it will kill her.

Emy spread salt 5 meters wide so the demon couldn’t see it. She just cut a route for the demon to enter the trap she was about to build.

Emy took a deep breath. “Hey!” She yelled, forcing the monster and the two guys to turn around.

Devin and Reed’s eyes widened as they spotted Emy. The demon dashed towards her, but Reed and Devin went down the incorrect path since they didn’t notice the salt encircling Emy. They both leaped out into the distance. The devil entered Emy’s circle. Emy walked around, and the demon followed her, till Emy stopped on the way. Then she secretly placed the salt in the circle’s remaining opening until the demon and Emy were fully confined.

“Emy!” Devin and Reed both yelled simultaneously.

Emy yelled, “Demon dagger, give it to me!”

“Emy...”

“Reed, the demon dagger...”

But Reed wasn’t going down without a fight; he attempted but couldn’t get in. He had only now noticed the salt.

“Damn it!” Reed became irritated.

“Emy is going to die, Reed.” Give me the dagger! ”

But Reed didn’t listen; he still tried but couldn’t get in. He released his strength, forcing the wind to blow violently, yet Emy’s circle remained steady. Devin sensed Reed’s persistence in entering resulted from the demon’s terror.

“Reed, stop. You’re going to hurt Emy with what you’re doing.” “Give her the dagger so she may protect herself.”

Reed was clenching his hands and taking deep breaths. It can be noticed his fingers got long fingers and nails and it turned black. His eyes have changed color as well.

The devil approached Emy. Emy took a step back, unsure of what to do. She searched Avery’s bag for something she can use to protect herself but found none.

Meanwhile, everyone took a step back to watch how Leo’s wound would heal. Although his hand cannot be replaced, his wound healed quickly.

“Avery. he is like Sir Devin and Sir Reed,” Jasmin said.

“What’s happening? How is he?” Niko asked.

Niko’s sister and mother had taken refuge behind the chair.

“Jasmin, hide, and Niko as well,” Avery said.

“What will you do?” Jasmin asked.

“I’m going to end our fight,” Avery said.

“Be careful,” Jasmin said. Jasmin took Niko’s hand and guided him to where his mother and brother were hiding.

Leo whistled as though he was summoning someone. That’s why, before the demon hound came, Avery began casting a spell with his Katana three times.

Devin and Reed turned around as they noticed a peculiar whistle. They also stared at the monster that began assaulting Emy. It becomes trapped within the circle and wishes to escape.

“Leo is calling it...” Devin said.

Reed pulled out the dagger and hurled it within the circle using kinesis. It flew near to Emy, but she couldn’t approach close since the demon’s assaults came one after the other. It slammed into the barrier many times and howled in anguish.

Devin and Reed walked as they watched what was going on inside. They can’t do anything since the circle is sealed. Nothing happened no matter how many times Reed used his long, keen claws to penetrate the barrier.

“Emy!” When the demon raced over Emy, the two yelled at the same moment.

The devil placed one of its feet on Emy’s chest. Emy saw closely how terrifying the demon can be. She couldn’t close her eyes because it was too frightening. Her tears flowed.

Reed uses his kinesis to push the dagger closer to Emy, but nothing happens. He couldn’t break through the barrier. Emy stretched her hand, attempting to reach the dagger despite its distance. At the same moment, she felt chilly all over her body. Her early memories flooded back to her. Emy cried, recalling all of her trials and sacrifices, as well as her joyful and painful memories. Even the first time she and Reed met. Devin and Reed’s eyes widened a few seconds later when they noticed the glowing circle in Emy’s mouth.

“No! No!” Reed screamed.

“Emy! Emy!” Devin shouted.

Emy’s tears streamed till she was out of breath.

Reed’s eyes were filled with liquid for the first time. No one could hear him as he yelled. He hit the barriers one after the other, and no matter how many times he hurled himself, he returned to do it again. He couldn’t let Emy die.

Moments thereafter, a weird light appeared within the barrier, hurling a powerful force at Devin and Reed. Reed collided with a large tree, which shattered because of the force of the crash. Devin was the one who died on the crucifixion within the tomb. A few seconds later, the light went out altogether, and they found Emy laying alone.

Meanwhile, Avery witnessed a dazzling flash as she buried her two katanas in Leo’s body. She and Leo were the only ones who witnessed the light since it burned him. Leo and his two pals were gone when the light went out. Avery panted as she gazed about.

“Avery...” Jasmin approached her instantly.

“Miss Emy...” Avery hurriedly exited the room, and Jasmin followed.

Devin and Reed’s bodies were on fire as they moved closer to Emy. While this was going on, their wounds were progressively mending, so when they drew close to Emy’s body, it restored their bodies to normal.

The dagger in Emy’s hand was the first thing they noticed. Reed quickly snatched it with kinesis and concealed it once more. Devin scanned Emy’s wrist. He exhaled a sigh of relief, knowing that he still possessed a bullet, albeit a weak one.

“Reed, Emy is still alive, but her pulse rate is very slow. If we take her to the hospital, she won’t make it,” Devin said.

Reed stroked Emy on the cheek. “Emy!” Reed hushed.

“Can you save her, Reed?” Devin asked. “You still save her...”

Reed clenched his jaw. He can’t save Emy. He lacks sufficient power. His fist was clenched. Avery and Jasmin arrive later. The two were taken aback by what they witnessed and approached Emy immediately. They sat down and held Emy’s hands. While Reed hugged her body.

“She has a weak pulse rate,” Jasmin noticed. “Let’s take her to the hospital...”

“She won’t make it, Jasmin,” Avery said. “She’ll be gone from us in an instant.”

“Do it!” Reed snapped. He cast a glance towards Devin. “Save her, Devin.”

Devin froze. “You can save her... help Miss Emy,” Avery said.

He moved his gaze to Avery, then to Reed. “You know what happens when I do this, Reed.”

“Save her!” Reed said. “We’ll talk when I’m sure she’s okay.”

Things are going well for Devin. He should be joyful, but he doesn’t know why he can’t.

“What are you waiting for? Help her!” Reed’s voice was thunderous.

With the sound of thunder and lightning, the entire area became dark.
