"What nonsense are you saying, Nyissa? This isn't the ti to act foolish," Oben said in a stifled tone.
Nyissa took a deep breath and said with a resolute gaze, "Maybe I want to be foolish this one ti."
"But why? There is nothing here for you to achieve. If this is about helping out the Blood Demon, he should be none of your concern. This is not your fight."
"Maybe it is not my fight. But that doesn't an I can sit still and watch such evil take place around . You were the one who taught us to extinguish any evil we co upon, no matter what. And now you have literally turned into sothing you preached against. So it is also my duty to bring you to the right path and get rid of Borin," Nyissa said as she tightened her grip around the spear.
Oben let out a low sigh and said with a head shake, "I admit you are right. But there are tis when you need to be prudent and decide what's the best course of action for you. There is no more bringing to the right path since I chose to be like this though the reason doesn't matter anymore. But what I wanted to say was that your actions are completely futile, especially throwing away the chance I gave you to get out of this hell."
"Then I will accept the consequences," Nyissa said as she maintained her gaze, making Oben look at her silently, making one wonder what he was thinking.
However, inwardly, Nyissa really had no idea why she chose to stay. She was confused whether it was because she didn't like seeing her grandfather like this or if it had sothing to do with helping Viktor or maybe both.
"Then you leave no choice but to kill you. Don't expect any rcy from just because you are of my blood," Oben coldly said, making Nyissa feel complicated, wondering if this man was really her grandfather and why he was acting like this.
She does not know Oben personally since this was her first ti eting her dead grandfather, but still, she could feel an intangible familial connection with him despite eting him for the first ti.
Oben waved his staff as the black portal collapsed on itself before completely disappearing away.
Nyissa could hear her heart thumping loudly against her chest since she was about to face off with her ancestor and took a quick glance at Viktor to see how he was doing.
Viktor was busy bashing Borin to the point of making him bleed profusely from all seven orifices.
"TELL ! How do I destroy those cages?"
Borin maniacally laughed as he coughed out so blood, "Hahaha!! I never thought I would be able to see this look of despair on your face one day...How satisfying…"
Viktor was beginning to lose his patience and calm since he couldn't bear seeing his parents stuck in that cage any longer, even if they were just souls.
Viktor pulled out the dagger Ayana had given him and stabbed Borin right below his ribs.
"Aagh!!" Borin felt a sharp stinging pain spreading from above his stomach, making him wonder where Viktor got this dagger from.
Viktor didn't pull out the dagger and instead slowly twisted it as the sound of Borin's flesh being twisted and torn apart sounded, "You still choose to not tell ? I will then make your death even more painful than your first death. But I am sure a coward like you will break before that."
Borin's eyes widened, suddenly rembering the grueso torture he was subject to before he died.
He gritted his teeth as he said, "You...you won't get the chance!"
Borin's hand suddenly lit up with orange flas as he tried to punch Viktor's face with it.
"Ugh!" Viktor suddenly felt as if his skin was crawling from just the heat coming from Borin's fist and quickly dodged backward.
"Hahaha...look at you...so afraid of the flas...I guess it's quite pitiful how vampires are totally helpless against magical flas...I really have to thank him, I guess," Borin mumbled towards the end though Viktor clearly heard it.
Viktor frowned, seeing the dark orange flas that were covering Borin's hands. But what he saw next shocked him as he saw Borin's injuries disappearing on their own till he was as good as new.
Even the injury Viktor gave him with Ayana's dagger disappeared, making him wonder how it was possible.
It was as if he never got injured in the first place.
"Oh? Surprised? Don't be. Didn't I tell you that I beco like this to crush your head to a pulp? So how could I let myself get killed by you first?" Borin said as his lips curved, enjoying Viktor's perplexed look.
"But I have to admit you are stronger than I expected though it wouldn't change the fact of how you would be lying dead under my feet soon," Borin said with a frenzied glint in his eyes as he charged forward with his hamr that lit ablaze with dark orange flas.
Viktor's expression beca grim, knowing that he couldn't let those flas touch him since his injuries won't heal.
So he quickly climbed up the walls using his bare hands to avoid Borin's blow and tried to think of a way to take down Borin.
"You think you are safe up there?" Borin scoffed as he started to whirl his hamr with both his hands till the air around him began to distort.
And the flas on the head of his hamr began to grow even wilder till they took the shape of a ring-like blade of flas.
Borin stopped twirling his hamr as he pointed his hamr towards Viktor's direction, and the large ring of flas shot towards where Viktor was.
Viktor raised his brows and quickly jumped over to the adjacent ledge to avoid Borin's attack as the wall behind him crumbled down.
Still, he was surprised by how powerful Borin's attack was since he was barely able to dodge it in ti.
But suddenly, he got an idea of how to destroy the cursed barrier that surrounded the cages, making him feel hopeful.
