    “Why! Are you not even going to eat?” asked a man from Den who had bound himself from a tree with the help of ropes even when the witches were gone.


    He red at the man with intense eyes as if saying to shut his mouth and looked away.


    “They would be here any moment, I can feel her dark energy.” said their leader as he licked his lips.


    Hazel was more like a food for him. A thirst he was facing for ages would finally be quenched.


    “Albus, Do not take them lightly! I am sure that they will attack fiercely this time now they are together.” warned Den with a stern look but the man onlyughed.


    “They are witches, Dec! What could they do? They have no idea that their spells are our food. They are bound to die since the beasts of hell never knew that losing is!” heughed hard as if telling his friend not to worry when Den frowned.


    His eyes sank deeper. He had seen Hazel fighting in the dark alley. He had attacked both of them personally.


    Anne was the strongest first generation which he had encountered and hazel.. She was stronger than anyone he had seen.


    Though he had never seen Albus using his powers but..!


    He stopped and closed his mouth again. He was not going to fight over it but wait, if Albjus was not able to kill Hazel, then he would.


    “They are here!” said Albus as he sniffed the air. His eyes glowed with anticipation and something darker than that.


    He rubbed his hands as the dark smog started to emit from his fingertips.


    “st!” As soon as words left his mouth, a strong explosion hit the area hard.


    The trees started to burn and the fire covered the whole area in its arms.


    The men who were sitting there leisurely while talking were burnt to their crisp. They were running here and there or rolling on thend to get rid of the fire that was only spreading every passing second.


    “Tsk! And here I thought that you would be waiting for me with full preparation?” Hazel was standing in the mid air with an arrogant smirk on his face when she looked down at Albus with disdain.


    He looked around, Anne was not there.


    “Where is your sister?” he asked with a smile as if he was not a least bit affected by the fire.


    He touched his burning hands with another hand and wiped the fire off his hand as if it were drops of sweat and then looked at her nonchntly as if he was already bored with her simple tricks.


    “Why do you need her?” asked hazel with a tilt of her head, “when i am enough to get rid of all of you?” she asked with a smirk and then attacked again.


    This time a strong lightning hit his mates and all of them were killed instantly. They were not even struggling anymore but when the lightning was going to hit him, he held it in his hands and then jerked it.


    The lightning fell on the ground cracking it in the process.


    “I am getting bored with your cheap y now.” he said as he took a step closer to her. “If you want to fight with me,e down and fight like a man.” he challenged as she noticed the dark smog covering his body and his eyes turned pitch ck again.


    She could feel the strong sense of sucking pull that was distorting her bnce too when she took a few steps back.


    Her heart was beating fast. There was something in this man that did not let her attack him. No matter what force she used, it was useless to him. She gritted her teeth as she cursed him in her heart.


    But the smile on her face did not falter a bit as if he was nothing but a fool in front of her.


    “You are forgetting one thing..” she had realized that magic was not working on him at all, so she held her crossbow in her hands.


    Though it has part of the magical spell, it has the strongest poison and the sharp silver that could kill most of the special and was also used with holy water in it. “I have been a woman since the start!”


    With that she shot the man with an arrow. He did not even try to dodge it.


    He only looked amused as if he was surprised to see her using human methods to fight with him. But just when he held the arrow in his hands, his eyes widened and he flinched.


    He let go of the arrow in that very second and saw his hands that had a wound. As if his skin corroded when he touched the arrow bringing a smile of relief on the face of Hazel who held the crossbow tightly in her hands.


    That was her only chance now.


    “What happened? Did the kid get a wound?” she mocked him with a stammering voice as she shot another arrow at him.


    This time he took hasty steps back while ring at her. The smog on his body started to increase as if it had its own mind and life.


    Her heart stirred but she onlyughed, “now who is trying to run away. Huh? You do not want to y with me anymore?” she asked with a raised brow as she shot the arrow again.


    The height was giving her leverage, so he was not able to hide anywhere when she was attacking him, making him grit his teeth.


    He stared at her with zing eyes as he pointed at her while waving his other hand in the air,


    “You wench! I am giving you ast chance to ept your defeat ande with me or I will make sure to make your life hell once I will catch you and give you a very slow and painful death that you will beg me for killing you.”
