498 Supply of the Chaos

“Report,” Lucas uttered, his gaze fastened on the Howling Mountains within the distance. The King had been appropriate; from a distant observer’s perspective, it appeared as if the island have been on the point of breaking up. Massive cracks had begun to look on the island’s floor, resembling flowing lava.

“Your grace, the mountain is shaking,” Huig instantly remarked. “It’s displaying indicators of a violent awakening.”

Lucas nodded and determined to personally go to the island, alone. Despite the fact that Huig possessed nice energy, this case was distinctive.

As soon as he set foot on the island, he instantly felt the bottom beneath him tremble and groan, sending shockwaves by way of the air. The cracks across the island expanded, revealing molten rock glowing with an otherworldly reddish mild. It was as if the very coronary heart of the mountains had ignited, and the land itself was about to unleash its fury.

Lucas surveyed the island, observing the smoke and ash billowing from the newly fashioned crevices, obscuring the encircling panorama in a darkish haze. The bottom quivered beneath Lucas’s ft, and a low, ominous rumbling crammed the air. Though the Howling Mountains had by no means been serene since their inception, as we speak, the approaching destruction was palpable.

“I’m shocked to see you right here,” a girl’s voice echoed behind him. He turned and stared at Atior, who now wore her standard black apparel and a cloak that obscured most of her face.

“I used to be not anticipating to search out you right here,” Lucas retorted. “Why would somebody who aimed to destroy the continent come to this place? Was it to brag?”

“I by no means supposed to damage the continent,” Atior replied. “However I can’t persuade somebody who has already made up their thoughts.”

Lucas turned his consideration to the cracks, recalling his earlier battle with Atior and figuring out that she had been injured. She had been pressured to flee in the course of the battle, leaving Lucas to keep up the barrier.

“The Barrier is about to crack and unleash its fury on the continent,” Atior stated calmly, regardless of the big crevices surrounding them.

“No,” Lucas responded.

“What?” Atior questioned.

Lucas selected to not communicate additional. As an alternative, he gazed on the surrounding mountains earlier than trying on the topmost peak the place Belisarius, together with his flamboyant white hair, stood.

“You might be again,” Lucas uttered.

Belisarius merely grunted and glanced at Atior, who stood not removed from Lucas. He was uncertain of what had transpired between the 2, and why they weren’t in battle. Nevertheless, he had by no means held a positive opinion of this sorcerer who consistently interfered of their affairs.

“The Barrier is on the verge of breaking. My estimate is 2 days,” Belisarius acknowledged. This chapter is up to date by nov(e)(l)biin.com

“That’s too quickly.”

“This time, we don’t know what triggered it,” Belisarius continued, glancing southward. “However I sense one thing within the south.”

“We’ve got not completed something to set off it,” Atior added.

“I don’t recall inviting you into this dialog,” Belisarius stated earlier than turning to Lucas. “Within the south.”

“Do you consider a high-ranking demon may have arrived right here?” Lucas inquired.

“Communicate,” Lucas replied.

“The Duchess has arrived and is at present talking with the King.”

Lucas instantly checked out Huig, then on the palace. With out one other phrase, he teleported contained in the palace and appeared within the King’s research, the place his spouse was current, together with the King, the Crown Prince, and Princess Isadora.

“I advised you to not come,” Lucas instantly stated, ignoring the others. “We’re leaving.” Nevertheless, his gaze landed on the black-haired lady who stood behind Rosalind. Was not this the lady named Josephine? One other sorceress?

He frowned and turned to the opposite aspect, confirming that Lachlan Blaize was certainly within the research.

“Your Grace,” Lachlan nodded. “I apologize for bringing the Duchess right here

. We perceive the dangers, however Josephine has seen one thing. We wished to verify.”

“I consider this has nothing to do with my spouse,”

Lucas stated, his possessiveness evident in his voice. The north was the most secure place for Rosalind proper now. She wanted to return there.

Simply as he stated this, Rosalind stumbled. Luckily, Lucas was there to catch her. “I advised you to not come,” Lucas hissed, evident at Josephine after which on the King. “We’re leaving.”

“Cease…” Rosalind held onto his arm. “Keep. I have to see it.”

“You can not…” Lucas’s tone was grim. “We’re leaving!” He lifted Rosalind into his arms.

“Please…” Rosalind murmured. Regardless of her want to remain, her physique couldn’t endure the whispers and visions of the previous. She had not anticipated a lot hassle coming to Rakha, however what Josephine had advised her was essential. She wanted to find out if she may sense the supply of the disturbance.

“Take me to the shore…” Rosalind whispered. She knew Lucas may hear her, so she didn’t hassle to open her eyes.

“What are you attempting to do?” Lucas’s voice echoed in her head. “You can not keep right here.”

“Depart this place. The north is secure.”

“Take me to the Howling Mountains,” Rosalind stated. This time, she opened her eyes, revealing silvery orbs that twinkled towards the room’s lighting. “Please.”

Her response to that place was surprising, however the visions that she was seeing have been actually disturbing. It was altering one thing inside her. One thing that she couldn’t appear to know.

She pursed her lips and endured her headache. If she wished to go, solely Lucas may take her to that place.

“There isn’t any have to set foot on the mountain itself.” This time, a person with lengthy white hair appeared subsequent to Lucas.

This was none apart from Belisarius.

He checked out Lucas and stated, “Take her to the shore. She ought to be capable to really feel it from there.” He gave Lucas a meaninful gaze. Then he added. “I might be there.”
