A massive line of fire can be seen lightning up the entire night sky, thebination of power between Adhara and Evelyn united into a devastating singr strike, filled with great anger and a tint of sorrow.


    Nothing upsets them more than seeing the man they love being broken down.


    Knowing the tragic backstory behind Rex''s firm back, the two of them can''t imagine the pain he must''ve felt when he failed to protect his second parents, his foster parents. As bad as their lives get, at least they still have someone in this world.


    Rex on the other hand, aside from them, has nothing left, taken away from him.


    Maybe when around him, the two of them were notpletely conscious of the scar and anger that lingers inside of them, yet it keeps umting and getting stronger. Like a bowl filled with water until it reaches the very peak.


    When they heard Giana''s name, it was at that moment the water spilled, their anger spilled.


    KABOOM!!


    Giana didn''t protect herself from the full impact of the strike, she waspletely bare and defenseless. But when Evelyn''s hand, descends like a karate chop and hits her stomach, her expression turns for the worst.


    ''U-Unbelievable!'' She yelped inside her head, surprised by the power the two generated.


    Looking at the skin on her stomach that is now being violently shed by Evelyn''s burning hand, her eyes glisten in surprise when she saw her skin slowly break down, and blood sshes out from her vessels.


    It was not within her expectation, and this might lead to an ending that she doesn''t want.


    No matter the pain that would''ve been dealt to her, she doesn''t mind it at all and would dly let Adhara and Evelyn vent out their anger on her for what she has done. But dying is a whole other thing entirely.


    From the scale of this attack, she knows that she might die and that''s not eptable.


    A widely known fact for the humans and also the Kings and Queens of Supernaturals was the fact that the ninth-rank realm Awakened is very hard to kill, each of them has a life force beyond measure that would allow them to survive the most grievous of injuries that can kill other Awakened a hundred times over.


    But that luxury was owed to the dense arcane mana and spirit energy that they have.


    At this current moment, Giana was not using anything to protect herself from attacks. Out of the damage that they could''ve done, she thought that at most they would just be able to break her bones and such.


    Giana hadn''t expected any attack that could''ve cut her in half from the two of them.


    With the sight of her skin breaking, her body instinctively imbued a sliver of mana to prevent her from being sliced in half. Immediately after that, she was plunged into the ground with a destructive force that blew the entire ce with ming fire.


    Violet and dark red fires can be seen intertwining together and creating a massive explosion.


    Evelyn gritted her teeth and puts more strength into her arm, the muscles inside bulged even more as she drives her hand down with more force. It was seen to be effective, a smile appeared as blood sshed onto her face.


    Under the intense stress, Giana splurted out blood, and the veins in her eyes also explodes.


    A huge fog of smoke, dust, and fragments flew outwards from the massive explosion, making it impossible to see more than a few feet ahead. In the middle of it all, Giana coughed severely, blood tainting the ground in front of her as she struggles for breath.


    Each cough contains blood, she was clearly injured from that attack.


    ncing over her abdomen where she was hit by Evelyn earlier, she noticed that the cut was dangerously close to spilling out her insides. It was too close forfort, she could''ve really been in real danger right there.


    With a few words, she used her water element to close up the wound.


    Just as she did that, she nced to the side seeing a flicker of me ember inside the fog of smoke. A frown appeared on her face, but then she was surprised to find a few ck arms emerging from the ground and grabbing different parts of her body.


    Following that, a metallic sound came from behind and blunt her hearing.


    It was supposed to be chains that are heated with a purple me, however, instead of regr chains the two ends were that of a serpent and a tail. Swiftly, one end of the ''serpent chains'' immersed itself into the ground and coiled tightly around her body to pin her in ce.


    Under the ck arms and serpent chains, Giana was fixed in her ce unable to move.


    Swish!


    Out of nowhere, a sharp kick that turned into a whip due to how fast it was moving hit the back of Giana''s knees and forced her to her knees. Not even a moment of time was wasted as an arm wrap around her neck and started choking her.


    "Haarhkk!" Giana grunted, the ferocity of the situation surprised her.


    Evelyn was the one that appeared on her back and started choking her in a perfect lock, she then puts her lips near Giana''s ear and whispered, "Don''t think this is already over, you deserve way more than this and that little scar on your face..."


    "It''s just the beginning" she added, putting her lips right beside Giana''s ear.


    Her voice which was always soothing and sweet in front of Rex turns into a whisper from the goddess of death herself, it was low and chilling, able to strike fear into anyone''s heart rather easily.


    Coming from the front, Adhara''s white eyes appeared as she walks closer.


    Still adhering to her Werewolf form, she raises her ws that make a steely sound, boasting its sharpness to the ones that heard it. "Out of the enemies we battled so far, the tchi Family, the Atkins Family, even the Supernaturals ranging from the lowest to the absolute top. Only you managed to hurt him..." Adhara paused, and slowly kneel down to reach Giana''s eye level.


    Locking eyes with her, she then pressed a finger against Giana''s heart, "In here..."


    Upon hearing this, Giana''s heart tightens as she can feel the immense hatred in her voice. She even unconsciously swallows harshly, and this only amplifies the guilt inside of her even more.


    "It would''ve been different if it was physical pain, heck it''s better to cut all of his limbs"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    "But you decided to attack his heart, and that I cannot forgive"


    ncing at Evelyn who is still choking Giana tightly in her arm, "We cannot forgive..." Adhara corrected her sentence. "Worst of it all, you definitely know his past before everything happened. Yet you still decided to do that, and that makes it way worse"


    As she said that, Evelyn''s grip around her neck bes even tighter.


    "Killing his foster parents when you have the knowledge of what had happened to his birth parents, the Devil will be happy to drag you down to hell, Giana. But don''t worry, I won''t let him take you, at least not until I show you hell on earth" Evelyn said fiercely.


    She then added with finality, a bone-chilling one, "You''re in for a world of pain, Giana..."


    Despite the situation she was in right now, she can''t help but admit that everything Adhara and Evelyn said was right. Giana then gritted her teeth. Even though she admits her faults, she still has an objective that she needs to aplish.


    An objective that doesn''t only involves her but the entire world as a whole.


    "I know what I did, and I will not deny it. But please, I need to meet with Rex. Adhara, Evelyn, there''s a problem in our hands that is bigger than all of us. After I say what I have to say to Rex, you can do whatever you want with me" Giana said, trying to negotiate with them.


    Just like she said before to Brigitta, she will make this happen no matter the cost.


    But under the chaotic emotions that were filling Adhara and Evelyn''s minds right now, her negotiation proposal only fell on deaf ears. Not a change in their expressions can be seen, they didn''t even consider it.


    Ssh!


    Out of nowhere, Adhara jutted her ws deep into Giana''s stomach fiercely.


    Each of her ws prated through her stomach cleanly and came out from the back, Giana''s eyes bulged when she felt this pain, and blood crawls through her throat before forcing it out through her mouth.


    "As I said, you''re worst than any of our enemies. I hate you the most." Adhara said.


    With a twist of her ws, Giana can feel her insides being riled up before a beautiful arc of blood was created as Adhara pulls out her ws from her abdomen, opening the wound that has been closed up earlier again.


    The desire to curl her body was intense, yet Evelyn didn''t let her do any of that.


    Evelyn kept her body straight by pulling her back through the neck, the blood from her wounds kept on gushing out severely, flowing down through her outfit and wetting it in the process.


    As they are doing this, Adhara and Evelyn turned their heads to the side.


    Giana''s gaze shifted suddenly, the pain from being stabbed disappeared, and her eyes widened in rm. "No! Don''t do it, this is my fault!" she eximed desperately. "Adhara, this is between us! US! Don''t involve them in this, they shouldn''t suffer because of me!"


    Upon hearing this, the tension in the air increases as Adhara slowly gazes back at her.


    "Hypocrite! Don''t spout bullshit to us!" Adhara roared in intense anger.


    Evelyn then added, her voice even colder than before, "Does that mean you think that his parents deserve to suffer? Deserves to die just because he''s a Werewolf who is helping humanity against the Supernatural, and you people are too selfish to ept him?!"


    The more she asked, the tighter her grip around Giana''s neck.


    Smiling acutely, mocking Giana right to her face, Adhara shakes her head and chuckled.


    It was a chuckle at how self-centered Giana''s thoughts were, and now Adhara is certain that she deserves everything that would happen to her. Looking back at the approaching army of humans that seemed to sense their fight earlier, Adhara''s eyes sparkle with a white hue before she sighs deeply.


    "Tell me, Giana. Do you care about those humans'' lives?" Adhara asked.


    Giana raises her gaze with clear determination in her eyes as she replied, "I do, I care!"


    Upon hearing the answer that came from Giana''s mouth, a fiendish smile appeared on Evelyn and Adhara''s faces. Killing intent started to ooze out of them intensely, "Well then, let''s see how you will feel after I ughter all of them"


    "NO! ADHARA! DON''T! I beg you!" Giana desperately pleaded, hoping for mercy.


    But Adhara retaliated by swinging her ws viciously and shing Giana''s face again, leaving four deep cuts that stung with pain across her face. Her head was knocked forcefully to the side, causing a spray of crimson droplets to hit the ground.


    With that, she then said, "Keep her there until I''m finished"


    "Leave it to me, she''ll stay here alright..." Evelyn replied savagely as if she was possessed by the devil''s incarnate.


    Seeing Adhara walking away towards the army that is approaching them right now, Giana wanted to stop her but was held back by Evelyn. "Hey, hey! Where are you going? Are you going to try and stop her with force? Is that it?"


    "W-What... I- I can''t let her do this" Giana mutters, a single tear rolling down her face.


    When Evelyn spotted the tear rolling down Giana''s face, a delighted, evil smirk crossed her face. Her voice was mocking as she asked, "Are you sure you want to do that? I wonder what will happen if you hurt me or her in the process? I''m not sure what''s your n to meet with Rex, but I can guarantee he won''t be happy if he finds out that you''ve injured me or her before meeting him"


    "And when that happens, you will witness all your ns crumbling apart" she added, guiding Giana''s gaze toward the approaching army. Her fingers moved gracefully before her face, portraying the image of her n crumbling into pieces.


    Evelyn then yanked her neck before pointing at the far distance, "Look, it''s starting!"


    Many voices of terror can be heard, explosions and chaos indicate that the fight has started, the ughter has started. "Watch them from afar, hear their screams, everything that happens to them" Evelyn paused and puts her lips closer to Giana''s ear once again, "It''s on you..."
