Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic Chapter 466 466

?The wall of light materialized with a swift elegance, a radiant shield that absorbed the brunt of Nexus's assault. The collision of forces created a dazzling spectacle, a clash of celestial energies that resonated through the room.

As the flas subsided and the echoes of the confrontation lingered, Reaves stood behind his protective barrier, his deanor unwavering. Nexus, with eyes ablaze with anger and disdain, stared through the dissipating embers at the figure that had dared to jeopardize the safety of an innocent child.

Seizing the opportune mont, Crystal, swift and silent as a shadow, maneuvered with the precision of a seasoned warrior. With a forceful strike to Reaves' vulnerable back, she delivered a powerful blow that took him by complete surprise. The impact reverberated through his body, causing him to convulse as the unexpected assault sent shockwaves of pain through his fra. A visceral, guttural sound escaped his lips as he vomited a mouthful of blood, staining the air with the tallic scent of iron.

Despite the injury and the sudden attack, Reaves clung tenaciously to Abby, refusing to release his grip. His eyes, burning with determination, t Crystal's briefly, revealing the depths of his resolve even in the face of adversity.

Crystal, undeterred, retreated swiftly, poised for the next move. She scanned the room, assessing the situation, her eyes flickering with a mix of concern and readiness.

In response to the threat closing in, Reaves conjured a luminous ball of light, a dazzling sphere that emanated an ethereal glow. With an almost casual gesture, he hurled it towards a nearby wall, unleashing a powerful burst of energy that shattered the structure. The fragnted remnants of stone and mortar cascaded to the ground, creating a chaotic spectacle as dust and debris filled the air.

Amidst the chaos, Reaves, holding Abby tightly, exploited the distraction to make his escape into the night. "Nexus, save !!" Abby was caught in the tumultuous events, called out Nexus's na, her voice carrying a mixture of fear and urgency.

Nexus, fueled by a potent mixture of rage and determination, witnessed the escape unfold before him. As Reaves disappeared into the shadows with Abby, Nexus felt a surge of frustration and regret. The realization that Abby was now abducted and in the hands of a conflicted adversary, had beco a pawn in a much larger ga weighed heavily on his shoulders.

------------------

Reaves' determination brought him within the deepest part of thick and dense forest, running wildly into the tangled branches in search of finding his enemy, Dracula. Not only was it terrifying for him to find an enemy that was powerful enough to bring the dead back on his feet, his target was Reaves and his beloved family. For clearing the pathway, making it easier to find his enemy, he abducted Abby. he planned to use her as bait.

Abby noticed that Reaves won't stop despite her struggles, he only gets her tightly in his arms. Reaves had a broad muscular build while Abby was a fragile girl, no match to his strength. When she learned it, she understood her position in the situation.

But, she still got a card to escape, as she opened her mouth and asked Reaves about his intention, "You're planning to kill, aren;t you?"

Reaves heard her clearly but remained silent on her question, and hissed lightly to keep her shut.

"If you don't reveal your plans with , I will shout and gain the attention of creatures living here." Abby thought of threatening Reaves but it backfired at her.

"Never thought of planning to kill but I won't hesitate to throw you in front of carnivores if you don't keep the little mouth of yours." Reaves snapped harshly at her.

There were hundreds of wild thoughts running in Reaves mind and dealing with a girl was way out of his path. Since he warned Abby to be quiet, he did not hear her utter another single word. Although her sobs were heard occasionally and sowhere in his heart, he felt guilty of dragging the girl in his business. But he was a father too and to protect his family from his enemies, Reaves was willing to kill or die. Preferably, he wanted to kill at the mont.

"If you do not cooperate, I have to terminate your life purposely. As long as you will be an obedient girl, I can assure you will be safe." Reaves stated but Abby wasn't willing to say anything.

The entire incident traumatized her. Her grandpa's strange behavior got her in trouble and there was no one else to bla. Left with no other options, Abby agreed to be quiet and listened to Reaves command without questioning his intentions anymore.

On the other side, Reaves focused on getting his trail on Dracula anyhow because waiting for him to attack seed a waste of ti. While he could utilize that ti to kill his enemy and lift the fear of living under danger everyday. Abby was frightened by Reaves' expressions. She did not dare to commit any mistake which would cost her sothing valuable.

As they hid under the dense woods, the shadows around them were covered in darkness, no sight to observe in the pitch black area as the sun had set long ago.

Strong winds blew against the sunset and the violet orange hue felt like rain on the fortress where Mary stood in the balcony of her room, silently watching the dense woods in front of her kingdom. There was a knock on the door which made her wonder who could be here at the mont. While one of his maids went to check the door, she had an intention of receiving news regarding Reaves. The ssenger ca forward and whispered near Mary's ear.

"Reaves Jas had made his decision. He is wandering in the woods now." The ssenger inford Mary.

Mary heard the news but showed no emotion. Even, she dismissed the ssenger and watched the sunset falling down. Taking a deep breath, Mary had her lips curled up in. The joy of hearing about the stupid decision Reaves made gave her a new sense of victory.

"What an idiot? Probably thinking he was doing charitable events for future generations. I lost my will a long ti ago." May talked with a low voice.

Her personal butler heard her right but chose to be silent. She approached his madam with steep steps, hardly making any noises. When he couldn't resist any longer, he broke the silence and demanded an answer for his query.

"Maybe I know what you are talking about, your highness. I will be highly obliged to help you." The butler showed sincere courtesy.

"What an utter disappointnt. I expected high from Reaves in this case but he broke my expectations. Anyway, I don't hold grudges for too long. My sympathy is with Jas' family as well but for now, I can't help much." Mary remarked suddenly.

"What do you suggest, my lady?" The butler knew Mary had sothing cooking in her head and wanted to know what she was thinking about?

Mary, indeed, had a plan in her mind. She wanted to take this issue to an extre and a smirk decorated her face.
