Chapter 30: Targeted
“What sort of rift?” Roshan delved further into the question as it didn’t really make sense to him, he felt there was an unusual clarity with the clouds and it didn’t give a good sign according to his knowledge. That was the only thing that brought him back into this underground palace, anwhile Azazel just kept his deanor calm and icy, justifying the oceanic blueness of his eyes but they remained distant.
“A limbo is more like another netherworld between the three realms where souls dwell, though not condemned or anything of that sort but it’s where souls normally go after leaving the earth, waiting to be either reincarnated or reborn.” He theoretically explained to the confused Roshan who finally had a look of understanding crossing his face, but then another question suddenly hit him.
“Shouldn’t there be a barrier around it?”
Azazel raised a brow in reaction, silently contemplating on Roshan’s next question before letting out a ‘hmmm’ in response, “you’re not wrong, but sothing even more unusual happened in your absence.”
Getting up to his feet, he faced the window as though he was recalling the most unusual event that took place, “a terrible force struck the limbo in accordance to so uncomfortable predicant and a soul was accidentally freed due to its magnetic force.” His gaze was suddenly filled with curiosity as he continued, “it was the last energy soul needed to make sure the net chain of rebirth doesn’t fluctuate, unfortunately, we lost it.”
“Can’t you just recover the soul back?”
Azazel couldn’t hold back a little snort, “As far as I know the soul is probably residing in so human’s body and getting it back is impossible, unless we kill the human or wait for that being to die.”
.....
“A soul escaping before its actual ti of rebirth, won’t that cause the lifespan of this person to shorten to so extent?” Levi thoughtfully inquired, earning a slight nod from Azazel.
“It’s the consequence of going against the law of rebirth. However, whoever has that soul must have probably co of age, many Demon’s would have targeted that specific being already, since the soul would return soon enough.”
“Targeted?” Roshan suddenly inquired, eting the stare of Azazel whose cold eyes glinted in response.
“I know there’s been many deaths occurring lately and it’s due to those wild Demon’s who can’t control their bloodthirst, on the contrary, storm Demon’s, shadow Demon and the rest higher demons who only feast on powerful energy souls, would have been an easy way for to figure out who the being is, unfortunately I’ve been too busy fixing the net chain with sothing temporal to focus on that.”
“And you think this person with a special soul resides in Euphrasia?”
Levi couldn’t resist nodding his head to Roshan’s third question this ti around and he feigned a pitiful expression, “you need to see the chaos being displayed in the Euphrasia kingdom, the war hasn’t even started yet.”
“They should have thought about it before blindly trapping in that temple,” Roshan outwardly cursed with a resentful gaze as the images of those spirits and sharp cuffs tearing at his flesh flashed before his eyes, not only did they trap him, but they’ve labeled him as a beast, a devil and many other pretty nas he could rember.
If they really want to see a devil, he was going to make them experience the torture of being with one.
“They brought this incoming misery upon themselves and soon enough, they’ll all bow before in defeat, pleading for rcy cause I’ll make them experience what real pain feels like, to the point they’d wish for death instead.”
“One could easily sense your vengeance brother.” Levi half-joked before his teasing smile equally faded, as though he just rembered a tragic event as well.
“I heard the new weaponry made for catching Demon’s hasn’t been tested yet but I can’t tell as of now, we need insights about the main kingdom.”
“Another reason why I’m here.” Roshan imdiately uttered as Levi’s words seed to remind him about his second reason for coming here. Turning his attention to Azazel, he didn’t ask but straightforwardly demanded with a targeted gaze.
“I need one of your pills.”
“For?”
“Are you giving or not?”
“No.”
Azazel refused without even batting an eye. Despite being locked away for years, his half-brother’s attitude barely changed, rather it seed to have only gotten worse, to the point he wondered how the rest of the Astaroth family would react once they see him, but that could be handled later, as of now, he was more curious as to what Roshan wanted to use his pills for.
“I’m not giving.”
“Don’t worry, I have no intention of using it on you.” Roshan assured him in a clarified tone but that didn’t convince him pretty much.
“Then who?”
“If you don’t give them to , you won’t know, and it’ll be our loss.” He stated the unseen aftermath, causing the reluctant Azazel to give in to his demand as he focused a bit of his power to his right middle finger, letting the crimson light dance along the tip with a magnifying power.
He instantly caught the light in his grasp, only to open his palm and resting on it was a red colored pill which he handed to Roshan.
“You get only one as your welco gift, and because I do not trust you.”
Nevertheless, Roshan took the pill and placed it inside his mouth. Without uttering anything else to the both of them, a dark powerful light soon enveloped him, causing a great gust of wind to encompass the hall room and once the dark light faded, he was out of sight, leaving the room to fall in a quiet hush as both n exchanged glances.
“What’s he planning on doing with the pill?” Levi alarmingly chid in but only got a blank stare from Azazel in return.
“I gave him the pill so he has no choice but to tell us, he knows I don’t easily give out my things without a proper exchange.”
