But little did they know that during the time they stole children it became rampant, even when it wasn't their doing it was still being investigated and everything led back to them.
Though it took a long time but nevertheless that was how they were traced.
And now facing a death battle they could only defend and wonder what was taking their saviour so long to come to their aid.
One should remember that the number of souls and blood they had consumed made
them very strong and agile and they could easily trash two or more Accursed warriors and not the other way around
but unfortunately for them they lacked experience in real fights and used their powers merely for entertainment and long lives
These Accursed warriors were almost no different from them, except they didn't consume a soul but they were unknowningly given vials that contained different blood with different affinity to use when it was absolutely necessary, except from that they're almost the same,
(but that was a different case for the shadow Accursed warriors, they consumed souls but that was an absolute secret in organisation.... To be precise Rimley was infact from that organisation a very long time ago before he escaped, and that was why E knew the method and rituals to live long and strong)
but still they weren't called warriors for nothing, they had been called countless times to fight battles that had to do with different countries, dangerous creatures and Accursed witches so they knew what to expect during a fight and with that their instincts told them to retreat from the sound that was coming in the direction they were headed to.
The other elders were just stuck they didn't even know what to think before one by one they started losing their heads.
Crimley was more cunning and sharp than the rest so when he saw the warriors retreating he did the same, luckily the ones that survived were close to him so he used his magical affinity to pull them along with him.
Retreating didn't mean they were saved from the sound but at least their heads didn't explored, instead after the sound died down they had trouble hearing each other.
The Accursed warriors were also affected by the deafness the sound caused but still they had other forms and experience of survival and communication.
Their leader made some hand signs to the remaining two and immediately they nodded and attacked the remaining elders.
They were told to bring captive back unless they had no other choice but to kill them and right now was perfect to bring them alive since they were confused and unstable
The elders had just got their bearings and was suddenly shaken by the deaths of their brethen and loss of hearing when they were suddenly attacked once again.
They didn't have any coordination and so their attacks were much or less the same as before and even useless now.
But Crimley had a plan in his mind so he became their rear and let the rest fight back
The damage caused by Asahel had affected both sides and even reached everyone back at the camp, but it wasn't strong enough to damage their ear drums and bust their heads open instead it just left a deafened silence that lasted for a minute or two but as for those heading toward the fight they were greatly affected.
Asahel didn't know this attack would reach that far and even affect the children back at the camp, if she knew she wouldn't have accepted to use this method but the main culprit Fairy knew all of this, even the range of how far it would reach he knew but did he care.....of course he didn't
To him his master's safety was of utmost importance
Unlike Krimley, Rimley didn't receive any serious damage but just a ringing sound that also left him deaf for some minutes.
It wasn't that he was strong enough to deflect such attack at such close range but that he was able to use Keith's power.
Keith's power was healing and nothing more but his healing was proficient on himself than on others, he could focus on certain area of his body and heal it within seconds, this was what Rimley used when he received that attack.
He focused the power he had taken from Keith and used it to heal his eardrums over and over again each time there was a slight damage
Asahel wasn't any better either. She had done alot of things in just one day, things she had never done before and it was simply exhausting.
With that she landed on the ground and reverted back to her human form, As for Rimley his ears, mouth and eyes had traces of blood,
Looking at himself he knew he had exhausted Keith's power of healing and that was why he was bleeding, he looked by his side and saw the headless Krimley, he then walked haggardly towards Krimley's body.
His once handsome and divine features were no where to be seen
Though he still looked young as before but it wasn't as good as when he was calm
Finally he reached Krimley's body and did almost the same thing he did to Keith, after taking a little of Krimley's blood that was still warm and consumed it he used the remaining blood scattered around to draw weird symbols with strange markings on the ground
This would take him a while at least three to four minutes to complete since it was a large formation but he didn't hurry himself because there would be huge consequences if he got even the slightest thing wrong, also he could see Asahel was very tired, he didn't know how long she would be still, but he was sure it would be close enough to finish what he wanted to do.
The fight on the other side was yet to end, since both sides were affected by the sound they were both having a hard time.
