After travelling continuously without a break, Leon and Evelyn managed to reach the abandoned city.

It was already late at night.

Evelyn looked at Leon,

“Now, Where do we head to?”

Leon replied, “The house of the old couple we need to visit is at the periphery of the city.”

After spending some time travelling around the edges of the city, they finally found the house they were looking for.

Leon impatiently got off the horse and knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

“Leon, don’t be too hasty, nothing bad will happen.”

Ignoring Evelyn, Leon once again used all his strength to knock heavily on the door.

Suddenly, the door opened and they saw an old lady.

The old lady realised Leon’s identity with a single glance. After all, she and her husband had seen him and David when they were little.

“You are Leon, right?”

“You also have similar eyes just like your grandfather.”

“If you could come a little early, you would be happy to see how your brother is getting stronger.”

Hearing her a bad premonition arose in Leon’s mind.

He was sure the old woman was the one who his grandfather had told about.

And when she said that David was getting stronger, Leon’s face became ugly.

He roared inwardly, ‘How can I be still late?’

‘No, I don’t believe it!’

He rushed inside the house to check if David was inside.

Evelyn just gave a wry smile to the old lady as she knew it was quite rude of Leon to rush inside someone’s house without even greeting the owner.

Leon searched every room but saw no signs of David.

It hardly took a couple of minutes but he was already covered in sweat.

‘No, David you can’t snatch this opportunity from me.’

‘This rightfully belonged to me!’

‘Wait, there still must be a chance.’

He came back to the door from where the old lady and Evelyn were looking at his strange actions.

Evelyn felt embarrassed and kept her head down, not daring to meet the old lady’s gaze.

His breathing was heavy as he asked the old lady,

“Tell me fast, where is David?”

The old lady thought maybe something happened in their family and he needed to tell David some important information.

“My husband took him and the slave girl following him to the central area of the abandoned city an hour ago.”

“Even though I offered to make something delicious to eat, he was way too impatient.”

“He said that he needed to get strong to take revenge upon some boy named Elandor.”

Hearing the old lady referring to her sister as a slave girl there were black lines all over Evelyn’s head.

Before the old lady could say more, Leon rushed out and got on his horse as he galloped away.

The old lady had a weird smile on her face,

“Sure enough, he too..is just like his brother!”

“Both of them are so impatient.”

“At least give me a chance to prepare dinner for you guys.”

Evelyn was also quick.

She hurriedly bowed to the old lady,

“We need to find David urgently!”

“We will be back shortly.”

After saying so, she too got on her horse and ran after Leon.

As Leon was moving to the place told by the old lady he saw dark clouds and strange phenomena happening in the city.

He saw a vortex in the middle of the city forcefully pulling all the resentful spirits and remnant souls hiding in the deepest corners.

He knew that was the place he needed to head to.

He pulled the leash of the horse to move faster.

Even though Leon was unfazed by all the things happening around him, the situation with Evelyn who was chasing him was much different.

She was already scared out of her wits after seeing all the supernatural things happening.

She could feel a heavy oppressive aura;

A gloomy and dreadful atmosphere as they moved closer and closer.

She started feeling suffocated as it was getting harder for her to breathe.

She was in deep thought,

‘What the fuck is even David doing?’

‘Causing all sorts of these bizarre things?’

Soon they realised the weather was returning to calm and all the supernatural things started disappearing.

By this time Leon finally managed to arrive at his destination.

They saw David standing at some distance away laughing madly.

Shortly, Evelyn also came to the place where Leon was standing!

Both of them got off their horses.

“Leon, What is happening with your brother?”

“Why is his appearance so hideous like he has become some devil?”

Upon hearing her there was a serious expression on Leon’s face.

As they started walking toward David, they were shocked at what David was doing.

They saw Eve lying on the ground, her whole body was covered with countless fresh wounds as blood was gushing out of them.

David was standing in front of her with a sword in his hand looking at her with his malicious eyes.

The devilish aura being released by him was too heavy for others to approach him.

Upon seeing her sister’s miserable condition Evelyn was flabbergasted as she ran toward them.

David was laughing loudly,

“Haha! Feel honoured your death won’t be in vain.”

“You can die in peace knowing that at least you would make me strong.”

Eve, who was lying on the ground, had tears in her eyes. Her heart was broken… sensing David’s increase in strength, she was happy and was approaching him to congratulate him but who knew the moment she came near him!

He suddenly stabbed her with his sword.

At first, she thought David was being controlled by some remnant soul so she tried to force him to awake but before she could do anything she was once again slashed down by David as all her clothes started to drench with blood.

At that time she heard David’s words that she was nothing more than a tool for him and she needed to die by his hands so that he could absorb her luck and fortune.

All her dreams about living a happy life with David were suddenly shattered.

It was like she got struck by a thunderbolt out of the blue.

All her life she tried hard to become someone important to him, but he was asking her to die just like that?

She was not reconciled but the reality was in front of her.

The person she cherished most, admitted that she was nothing more than a slave girl in front of her, forcing her to feel the deepest despair of her life.

She felt her willingness to live decrease at an exponential rate as her sole reason to live on collapsed.

There were so many grievances in her heart that she wanted to shout out but she couldn’t muster the strength to vent her emotions.

Her knees gave in as she fell to the ground.

There was a heaviness in her heart.

All she could see was David lifting his sword in front of her.

She knew the moment David completed his action, her existence would fade away from this world.

There was sadness in her mind,

‘Perhaps…Is this, my final moment before my death?’
