Tempting Fate Chapter 34

34 Chapter 34: Fighting Skills Has Returned

Emy’s friends were lounging on the sand, while Emy’s siblings were playing in the sand with their father, Eddie. Reed stood nearby, watching them as Maria spoke to him. Reed didn’t seem to listen to Maria.

“I’m listening, Maria, don’t be upset,” Reed says, without looking at Mary.

“It’s pretty clear that they’re ddling with people’s lives,” Maria said. “What do you have in mind, my king?”

“Do you have any idea where they’re going?” Reed asked.

“There isn’t a specific place,” Maria explained. “As I already stated...”

“All right,” Reed said. Maria turned to face Reed. “Give an hour, and we’ll have those soul eaters finished.”

Reed turned and walked away from Maria. “However, my king...”

“Relax, Maria. Enjoy the beach...” Reed said.

“Haist, he has changed a lot. When else did she enjoy the beach?” Maria spoke softly.

.....

Reed held Emy’s shoulder and gestured for her to stand. Emy quickly followed, and she and Reed moved away from the group.

“Why? Where are you going?” Emy asked.

“The demons continue to cause havoc in your world, and it is my obligation as demon king to deal with them,” Reed said. “All I want is that you listen to . No matter what happens, do not leave the resort.”

“Tell where you’re going first,” Emy urged.

“Why do you need to know more?” Reed asked.

“Didn’t you say I am your wife?” Emy asked.

“Yeah, we’re husband and wife,” Reed said.

“In my world, the husband informs and tells his wife where he is going, what he is going to do, and what ti he is returning or going ho,” Emy said.

Reed smirked. “That’s ridiculous; why does a man have to do such a thing? Like , I’m the king and.....” Reed said.

“In that case,” Emy turned away from Reed and began walking away from him. “Forget that I’m your wife, and I’ll forget you as...”

Reed instantly after Emy and positioned himself in front of her. “Don’t say sothing like that. When you say that...”

“Then tell ,” Emy said as she folded her arms. “Where are you going?” What are you going to do? And what ti are you coming back?”

Reed burst into laughter. He didn’t understand, but he felt uneasy when Emy asked with a serious expression on her face.

‘She’s really adorable,’ Reed thought.

“It seems that I prefer the rules of your world when it cos to husband and wife,” Reed said, smiling. “You seem to be a possessive wife.”

“Haist, what? Won’t you tell?” Emy asked.

“All OK,” Reed said. “I shall track down the demons who murder humans and return them to the realm.” I’m not sure what ti I’ll get ho. There is no specific ti as long as I go ho. Is it okay, Wifey?”

Emy smiled. “All OK,” Emy said. “Be careful. You’ll go ho with no scars and alive, okay?”

“All right, Wifey,” Reed said.

——-

Reed was standing in the tallest structure. He was speaking to the angel, who had transford into a teenager. He didn’t even notice it at first.

“Are you certain about your decision? There is nothing to deprive it of,” the man explained. You have a lot of power that you can recover. ”

“What I need is the power to fight.” When I regain that power, I will be able to ensure Emy’s safety.” Reed said.

“All right,” the guy said, “the power you want is already in you. Make good use of it.”

The man next to Reed vanished without a trace. Reed’s bodily tension increased.

“It’s ti to clean up the ss,” Reed said as he dashed to the top of the building.

—–

Reed erges at a cinema theater where everyone is frightened because demons have turned up. Reed approached the demons, who were busily devouring human souls one by one.

Reed punched the nearest monster into him. It seed to soar through the air and crash against the seats as he dropped to the floor. Reed moved fast towards the first demon assault. It also surged back at him. The color of his eyes altered, and he drew the rails to the balcony. She swiftly twisted it in his palm and pierced the demon’s head. Reed imdiately repelled an onslaught from another. Other demons had abandoned their captives. They both rushed at the sa mont. Reed twisted the long pipe fast and smashed it into his demon opponents. Three of them sprang up in the early part of the cinema. Reed dashed forward, attacking the two demons and hurling them into the distance.

Reed’s hand emitted black smoke, which created a door on it. It transford into a doorway through which he approached the monsters.

“Will you co in, or will you wait for to murder you in this world?” Reed asked.

Reed chuckled as the demons growled, as if he knew what they were saying.

“And who inford you that my crossing this world is to confound useless people, huh?” Reed asked.

The demons shouted once more, and this ti they were all together. Reed lifted one hand to ward off the demons.

“Of course not. Why would I ask you to return what you ate?” Reed asked. “Co in before I change my mind.”

The black smoke flew through the air and through the portal. Reed took a deep breath. He tossed away the pipe he was carrying and vanished, leaving only black smoke as a trail behind him. The cops arrived with the doctors and rescued the victims who were laying there.

——-

Reed smiled as he stood in the tallest structure. He stretched his arms and enjoyed having his power restored to him. He was surrounded by black smoke, which seed to be rejoicing with him.

“Aahhh!” His loud scream caused the wind to pick up in that high building, as well as loud thunder and lightning and a minor tremor.”

“It seems you’re too happy.”

Reed glanced up because he recognized the voice. “You already heard the news. Are that soul eater already reported everything to you?” Reed said.

“Why would they do that? Who am I for them to approach?” Devin asked.

“I know. Maybe you’re having a chat,” Reed said.

“You simply ca into this world and you turned into a clown,” Devin replied.

“So, stop snooping on ,” Reed said.

“Snooping? Why would I do that? I just want to visit you. You’re my favorite cousin, you know...” Devin said.

“Really? Why?” Reed asked. “I thought you told everything so I could exorcise those devils.”

For a brief period, Devin was deafeningly silent. Later, Reed’s phone rang in his pocket. He responded promptly.

“What?” Reed asked, surprised. “OK, I’ll be right there.”

Reed disappeared, as did Devin, who had followed him.

——-

Reed had tracked out the soul eaters, who were tied by the black smoke. Mary is in front of them. He didn’t see Emy’s family or Avery and Jasmin. Devin was standing behind Reed when Maria spotted him.

“What happened to my queen?” Reed asked.

“I kept them inside the cabin,” Maria said. “What do you intend to do with these demons, my King?”

“Let Devin decide,” Reed said.

Devin chuckled. “Would you like to make the decision?” Devin asked. “What if I let them go?”

“You’re not going to do that,” Reed said.

“Why did you say that?” Devin asked.

“Instinct,” Reed said.

Reed left right afterward and headed to his cabin. Devin approached Maria. “Prince Devin,” Maria began.

Devin turned to face Mary. “I’m going to ask you, Maria. What exactly do you want us to do with those heinous demons? ”

“I have no right to decide, my Prince,” Mary said.

Devin nodded, moved his body close to Maria, and whispered in her ear.

“I’ll give you permission to do whatever you want with those demons,” Devin said.

“My prince?” Mary asked.

“You have three choices,” Devin said. “Take them back to the portal, kill them, or the interesting thing is to release them and let them lead elsewhere.”

Devin caught Maria’s eye. He couldn’t figure out its behavior. Devin squeezed Maria’s shoulder and walked away. Devin was just left as a speck of black smoke. Maria glanced at the five demons in front of her.

“Looks like I know what I’m going to do to you,” Maria said.

—

Reed knocked on the door cabin. He called Emy. After a few seconds, it opened. It surprised Reed when Emy approached him and hugged him.

“Are you all right?” Reed asked.

“Yes, we’re OK,” Emy responded. “Maria? Have you seen her? ”

.....

“Yes, she has a wound and has been transported by ambulance,” Reed said.

Emy’s siblings exchanged glances. “But there was no sound of an ambulance,” Ethan pointed out.

“Was Maria hurt?” Emy asked.

“Don’t worry about her any longer,” Reed said. “How are you? Did you get hurt? ”

“There is nothing, sir. Your maid quickly hid us here in the cabin,” Avery said.

“What are the creatures that have previously visited here, Reed? They want to murder us,” Eddie said.

“They’re the serial murderers you see on TV,” Reed explained.

“They’re the murderers?” Jasmin asked.

The room was deafeningly quiet. “They’re no longer there. Maria has already driven them away,” Reed said.

“How could she do that?” Emy asked.

“We’ll know when he’s released from the hospital,” Reed said.

Reed blew forth black smoke from his hand when everyone was quiet, and it spread over the room.

Emy saw smoke in the room. She instantly covered her nose. Reed pulled Emy’s hand from her nose.

“I need to erase their mory of what happened,” Reed said.

“W-what?” Emy asked.

“For their peace,” Reed said.

“All OK,” Emy said. Emy kissed Reed on the lips after pressing both cheeks.

“I’m happy you’re okay, hubby,” Emy said.
