CHAPTER 30: KILL
★*:.｡. ✧☆✧ .｡.:*★
At the throne room, inside the demon queen castle.
Gehenna sat on the throne while Cyrus, Abia, and Iudas standing beside her.
"What did you do last night? Why did they come to destroy my barrier and attack us?" Gehenna asked, angrily.
"I went to enchant their leader as your order but she is too skilled. I was almost killed last night. But I'm sure she could not track me. I teleported to the other area before I came back her, Queen Gehenna" said Gratia anxiously.
"Kill them all and leave that woman to me," Gehenna told Sceleria, Nefus, and Gratia.
"Yes, Queen Gehenna" Sceleria, Nefus, and Gratia said. They ran to the secret passage to avoid Ignacia.
"Let me kill her, Queen Gehenna" Cyrus said.
"No, let me do it, Queen Gehenna" Abia said, eagerly.
"I'm stronger than the others. Let me do it, Queen Gehenna" Iudas said, seriously.
"She could break my barrier. It means she's very strong. Cyrus and Abia, you two go to that mountain first. I and Iudas will kill all the humans here," Gehenna said.
"No, I don't want to leave your side," said Cyrus sadly.
"I want to help you as well, Queen Gehenna" said Abia firmly.
"No, you two will be my weakness. Just go. It's my order," said Gehenna firmly.
Iudas looked at them and smiled with a smile of the one who got the victory among the men in Gehenna's harem.
Cyrus drooped, Abia said nothing, they both slowly walked out of the throne room.
★*:.｡. ✧☆✧ .｡.:*★
Ignacia sensed the powerful power. She ran, following the way that lead to that power until she found a large room. She broke the door and went inside. She saw Gehenna sitting on the throne, and Iudas standing beside her.
"I wondered who could destroy my barrier," Gehenna said.
Ignacia activated 'Lightning Magic' to attack her but she cast barrier to protect herself and Iudas.
"Let me kill her," said Iudas angrily.
Gehenna nodded in agreement.
Iudas walked toward her and transformed into Red Dragon, fully grown, enormous, furious-looking dragon.
Gehenna cast barrier to scope the area of fighting like mini arena.
Iudas breathed fire to burn Ignacia strongly.
Ignacia activated 'Water Magic' on Katana Sword, then slashed the fire while activating 'Lightning Magic' strongly to hit at his body.
Iudas was roaring angrily. His jaws stretched wide, furious fire was shooting from his open, fanged mouth.
Ignacia activated 'Wind Magic' on Katana Sword. She teleported to his back, then slashed his neck aiming to cut off his neck but his scales and skins were very tough. She could cut only 1 in 5 of his neck.
Iudas tried to shake her off, yowling with hurt.
Ignacia hurriedly activated 'Lightning Magic' strongly to hit his head to make him shock with the electric power.
Iudas was dizzy and paralyzed, he could not see anything clearly at this rate.
Ignacia teleported to stand firmly on the floor. She activated 'Wind Magic' on Katana Sword, then slashed his neck again with all of her force.
Iudas's head were completely cut off. He died instantly.
"Nooooo…" Gehenna shouted. She negated the barrier and appeared beside him.
"You!" said Gehenna angrily.
Ignacia activated 'Lightning Magic' to attack her.
Gehenna blocked her attacks with barrier.
Ignacia used 'The Eye of Truth', then activated stronger 'Lightning Magic' to attack her again, aiming to break the barrier.
Gehenna felt uneasy after her barrier cracked, then asked, "Who are you?"
Ignacia said nothing but attacked her with stronger 'Lightning Magic' again.
Gehenna teleported to dodge her attack and showed up behind her, then said, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Her tone of voice softer.
Ignacia turned toward her, then activated 'Wind Magic' on Katana Sword and slashed at her but Gehenna disappeared before she could do it.
Gehenna breathed strong fire at Ignacia from behind.
Ignacia sensed her power. She hurriedly teleported, avoiding her attack, and appeared beside her. She slashed, aiming at her but missed.
Gehenna teleported far from her, then attractively said, "It seemed you don't want to talk."
Ignacia activated 'Lightning Magic', deceiving her into thinking that she will attack her at the current location, and then she activated 'Lightning Magic' all over the room.
Gehenna appeared behind her, she was hit by the lightning magic. "Ouch…" She exclaimed.
Ignacia activated 'Lightning Magic' to attack to her again and again.
"Wait…it was hurt," Gehenna yelped.
Ignacia said nothing and continued to attack her by lightning magic.
Gehenna was paralyzed after she was hit many times.
Ignacia activated 'Wind Magic' on Katana Sword and stabbed into her heart.
Ignacia activated 'Familia', engraving her power on her heart to enslave her.
"What did you do to me?" Gehenna asked, irritably.
Ignacia activated the power of 'Familia' to make her heart a sharp pain.
"Kyaaa…" Gehenna screamed and said, "Wait…what did you do to me?"
"How can I kill you?" Ignacia asked and made her heart throbbed again.
"Kyaa…" Gehenna screamed and said, "Wh…who is going to tell you?" "Kyaa…no…it was really hurt" she was out of breath.
"Why did you want to kill humans then?" Ignacia asked.
"I did it for fun…," Gehenna said, hatefully.
there were the true words popped up in Ignacia's mind.
"Who disturbed you?" Ignacia asked.
"Huh? Did you read my mind?" Gehenna asked, surprisingly.
Ignacia made her heart throbbed again and again.
'Kyaa…Kyaa…Stop…Please,' Gehenna screamed loudly.
Ignacia stopped and looked at her, waiting for the answer.
"…I don't know. My underlings always reported me," Gehenna said. Her eyes were in tears.
there were the true words popped up in Ignacia's mind.
"Who reported you?" Ignacia asked.
"A witch named 'Sceleria' reported me," Gehenna said.
"And you believed her? Didn't you cast the invisible barrier? No human can see your castle unless they processed the high magic power," Ignacia asked, annoyingly.
"Oh, I forgot about it," Gehenna said.
"I can tell you, you are fool. It was such a waste of your time to live so long but you got deceived that easily," Ignacia said.
"You are very rude," said Gehenna angrily.
"Did you kill the humans?" Ignacia asked.
"I did many centuries ago," Gehenna said.
Ignacia tried to kill her.
"Wait…I will flee from here and I will seclude myself. Just don't kill me," Gehenna said.
"How can I believe you? I just killed one of you men, right?" Ignacia asked.
"It's all right. I can find new one. I tell you the truth. You can read my mind. I promise I will not kill humans first," Gehenna said.
"How can I kill Sceleria?" Ignacia asked.
"Ah, you have to burn her," Gehenna said.
"All right. If you don't keep a promise, I will kill you. And don't kill Valentina. She's one of my slaves like you. Just stay secluded as you said," Ignacia said.
"Did she betray me?" Gehenna asked, angrily.
"No, I threatened her like I did to you," Ignacia said.
"Argh…I got it," Gehenna said and disappeared.
"…Igna…he…," Victoria's voice came out from her 'IM Device'.
Ignacia hurriedly teleported to the outside.
★*:.｡. ✧☆✧ .｡.:*★
Back to the time, while Ignacia was fighting with Iudas and Gehenna.
Sceleria suddenly showed up in the air, riding broomstick. She threw the bottles of poison at the area where Victoria and Maximus standing and killing the other monsters.
Victoria saw her and shouted, "Over there! Be careful," She activated 'Fire Magic' to shoot at her.
Maximus could dodge the poison on time, then shot 'Fire Magic' back at her.
Sceleria was riding broomstick, flying up to dodge their attacks. She threw the alchemy bombs to attack Victoria and Maximus.
Victoria and Maximus teleported to avoid the bomb on time. They were separated because of the situation.
Victoria hid behind the trees, far from the area where Sceleria throwing alchemy bombs, and observed the situation.
Maximus looked for Victoria. He teleported to the different way, far from the area where Sceleria throwing alchemy bombs, the opposite side of the location where Victoria was hiding.
The bomb produced a pall of smoke, covering the next movement of Sceleria.
Sceleria threw many alchemy bombs all over the area without caring the sides.
Meanwhile, the other mages who were fighting with Nefus, Gratia, the beast-men, the beast-women, and the monsters, got the effect from the alchemy bombs. Some could dodge, some got injured.
Nefus hurriedly ran out of that area.
Gratia used this chance to run away. She disappeared under the smoke.
Many beast-men, beast-women, and monsters were killed by the alchemy bomb. The remaining beast-men, beast-women, and monsters ran away with their instincts.
Victoria was hiding behind the tree, waiting for a chance to attack Sceleria. She activated 'Fire Magic' on her sword, being ready to fight all the time.
Suddenly, from somewhere behind her, Nefus accidentally ran toward her. He saw her, then used his axe to attack her instinctively.
Victoria blocked his axe with her sword, while activating 'Fire Magic' to attack him at the same time.
Nefus was burned on the side. He attacked Victoria aggressively.
Victoria blocked his attacks, while activating 'Fire Magic' to burn him with large flame.
Nefus was burned and tried to run away but Victoria slashed his back and cut off his head very quickly.
Victoria turned to check the situation. She saw Sceleria flying above, making a mess all over the area. She activated 'Fire Magic' to shoot at her.
Sceleria was hit on her arm. She looked at source of attack and saw Victoria. She flew toward her and threw the bottles of poison at her.
Maximus teleported to protect Victoria on time but he got attacked by the poison instead of her.
Victoria held Maximus and teleported far away from that area to check his condition.
The poison eroded his back so quickly.
"Igna, come to help us," Victoria used 'IM Device' to communicate with Ignacia.
"Endure it for a moment, Max" Victoria said. She decided to teleport back to the fortress. She hurriedly took him to the healers.
Ignacia came out of the demon queen castle, she saw a pull of smoke all over the area. She used 'The Eye of Truth' to look for Sceleria. She saw Sceleria flying over the smoke. She activated large flame all over herself and Katana Sword, then teleported to the broomstick. She caught her with fire magic on her hand, then stabbed into her heart very quickly. She burned her all over, making sure to kill her.
"Kyaa…" Sceleria screamed loudly while she was being burned alive. She looked behind her and saw Ignacia, feeling frightened. She realized that she will die for sure. She was badly hurt, and then her senses and soul had gone finally.
The broomstick and the burning body of Sceleria started to fall down from the sky.
Ignacia teleported to the ground, then activated 'Wind Magic' to blow the smoke.
She saw many mages were hurt from the attacks, and the dead bodies of beast-men, beast-women, and monsters all over.
Ignacia hurriedly healed the mages who were badly injured.
"Take the injured people back to the fortress," Ignacia shouted. She could not heal everyone. She helped the people who were badly injured first.
Lorenzo and the mages, who were not hurt, hurriedly helped the injured people, then teleported back to the fortress.
Ignacia continued to heal the injured people.
Lorenzo and the other black mages teleported here again to help more injured people. They made sure to take everyone who were injured back to the fortress.
Ignacia used 'The Eye of Truth' to recheck all the area. She was sure that there was no more demons and monsters here, then teleported back to the fortress.
