Chapter 872 - THE MYSTERY OF TIME (2)

"I don\'t think so," the fae said curtly, she scrutinized Raine for a moment before she decided that she was not her enemy as she looked weaker than her. "If you want to stay alive, you should go away from this place before this fight becomes even worse," she warned her.

However, Raine shook her head stubbornly. "No, I will stay," she said.

The fae creased her eyebrows, but she didn\'t have time to argue with her. "As you wish," she said.

The fight between the nine snakes against the phoenix continued, but over time, though the phoenix managed to blind six snakes out of the nine, those creatures were still alive and tried to bite down the beautiful bird down.

And over time, the phoenix grew tired as well, its wings flapped weakly and its movement was not as agile as before.

It was a great opportunity for the snakes to tackle it down.

On the other hand, the fae, who watched all of this happen grew restless, she knew the phoenix wouldn\'t be able to fight any longer, therefore she whistled to call the bird back.

"We need to get out of here," she said to Raine this time. "I don\'t know why you are here," she added, as she glanced in Raine direction and shook her head. "Are you a guardian angel?" she asked.

And for the first time, Raine was glad that she was recognized as one. "Yes, I am," she said.

"Didn\'t you came too far from your village? Where is your shadow warrior?" she asked, but her eyes kept straying to the phoenix, as she raised her hand to receive the bird before they proceeded to run away from the snake monster.

Raine\'s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Was that mean during this period, Aeon was still alive?

However, she didn\'t have time to think about that when the bird flew toward the fae\'s hand, yet the snakes followed him along , continued to screech. Their nine heads rose up high until it seemed like it touched the clouds in the sky.

And only then did Raine realize that, in spite of having nine heads, those were all connected to only one monstrous body. It was a single monster but with nine heads!

"What is that monster?!" Raine shouted in fear when the nine heads of the snake tried to get the bird that blinded six heads out of it\'s nine.

"Hydra," the fae said between her labored breathing. "Let\'s go!" she caught Raine\'s hand and started to run, while the snake followed behind them.

"Watch out!" Raine pushed Purple away, as she jumped to the side as one of the snake\'s head plummeted from the sky and pummeled the ground where the two of them were standing moments ago.

Seeing that, the phoenix rose up high into the sky and dived down straight into the river, which lured the snake away from the fae and in to the river.

It was unprecedented. And, it was unimaginable what would happen deep down in the ice cold water. Whether the phoenix would survive or not, turned into a mystery as not even a single sound could be heard from the water.

"No!" the fae screamed dreadfully as she flapped her wings and flew up in the air. She looked down toward the frozen river\'s water, which had now turned into the color of red. "No," she muttered, while shaking her head like a rattle drum.

And with that, the fae started to cry and flap her wings violently until it created harsh winds around the are surrounding the river.

"Purple, stop it!" Raine tried to get the fae, flying high in the sky to get down, but apparently it was a futile attempt to calm her down by only words.

It was almost as naive as Raine tried to convince herself that the phoenix was fine before she watched in horror as the color of the river water turn red.

==============

Hope felt something touch her and with her last bit of consciousness, she saw a beautiful bird swimming toward her.

She must have gone crazy, how could a bird swim in this frozen river? But, she had seen it with her own eyes!

It\'s wings flapped against the current of the river before that creature crashed into her and wrapped her in his claw. Hope thought, at the very least, she would get hurt because of it, but apparently the bird wrapped its claws around her cloak and brought her straight ahead to the surface.

If Hope could make any sound, she would have screamed when the bird\'s beak crashed the hard ice and flew up from the water along with her tugged to its claws.

==============

After the short conversation last night about where Jedrek had gone to, Lilac acted a little bit more formal toward Jedrek and the later could feel it from the way she avoided his eyes.

Therefore, after Lilac helped Jedrek to wear his cloak and finished buttoning it with her head hanging low, Jedrek caught her hand just as she was about to go out of the tent.

"Tell me," Jedrek said.

"Tell you what?" Lilac asked, trying to release her hand from his tight grip, but it only prompted Jedrek to pull her even closer.

The king hugged his queen from back and rested his chin on her shoulder, trapping the guardian angel in his arms.

"What is bothering you?" Jedrek didn\'t want to talk about what had happened because he didn\'t want their relationship to take another step back after what they had gone through. However, at the same time he wanted to keep his promise not to lie to her.

Lilac bit her lips and held Jedrek\'s hands, as she felt his warm breath brush against her neck and the lycan nuzzled his face against his mark.

"Do you think I went out of the tent because I want to see Serefina?" he asked.
