Chapter 108: 102. Itasin forest
Inside a forest filled with lush green trees, five people wearing cloaks of various colors walked through.
They didn't seem scared of the creatures which were running towards them, instead some of them were discussing peacefully.
"We could just send out a few emissaries." Bard in his black cloak said as he looked at a large wolf that came charging towards them.
He swiped his finger in the air and the wolf's neck was snapped and it died on the spot.
"When will you ever stop complaining?" Carina in her white cloak said.
As they walked deeper and deeper into the forest, more and more monsters were coming for them but Bard seemed to be taking care of them easily as with just a swipe of his fingers he could kill them.
"Are you getting overwhelmed?" Veneta asked, and Bard shook his head.
"I'm fine, I'm fine. Using the power of the spirits for so long is tasking." He said tiredly.
"I can take over for you." Veneta said as she walked forward.
"Well. With how powerful Alexander was, he's probably in control of the entire forest." Lisa said and Veneta suddenly began to sing in a melodic tone.
The creatures coming towards her immediately stopped before they looked at themselves and began attacking each other.
"She's pretty scary. Turning the monsters against each other with just her voice." Carina said.
"Oh, she's even more dangerous under the moon. She's the leader of the moonlit sirens after all." Carina said as she walked forward, following Veneta's lead.
They peacefully walked through the valley, watching the monsters kill each other, none of them had to even raise a finger.
"How can she keep going for so long?" Bard was shocked as Veneta's voice was still in its prime even after going for so long.
She wasn't even showing signs of getting tired, instead she seemed to he enjoying herself.
Soon after, the five of them reached in front of a circle which had the symbol of a knot on it and they all stared at it with wide eyes as the pentagram was complete.
"Seeing all the skeletons ahead, they are probably the ones who completed it. How they knew about it doesn't matter now." Asher finally spoke up and walked forward with a calm gaze.
"We can't go further than this." Asher said which made the rest of them turn towards him.
"There's an anti magic barrier ahead of us. If we walk into it, we lose our connection to the spirits and Alexander would be able to get to us." Asher said as he saw the barrier clearly with his special eyes.
"What do we do now if we can't go through? This journey was for nothing." Barn said as he sat down on the ground.
"No it wasn't. We need help." Veneta said and Barn looked at her carefully.
"He's able to use this level of power. He must have taken advantage of the apocalypse to stop us from coming." Lisa said as she folded her arms.
"We need help. I'm going to call bloodborn." Asher said and the other turned towards him.
"Wait, are you sure about that? He might snap if he finds out that we didn't get rid of the 'demon' fully." Carina said as she facepalmed.
"Still, we need his help. Drake won't help us. Snow is too weak to even help, and the saggitarians are so far away." Asher explained as he closed his eyes.
He stretched out his hand and light particles began leaving his finger, condensing into a single object in front of him.
He brought his hand down as he finished and in front of him was a bird made out of the light particles.
"Call bloodborn. Tell him it's a global emergency." Asher whispered to the bird before letting it fly away.
Lisa walked towards the invisible barrier that was in front of them and when she touched it, she felt a bit of her power leave and she retracted her arm immediately.
"He's smart. He could make a skill like this in Heaven's tower." Lisa said with a frown.
"Oh, yeah. That's right. While he won't be able to move physically, he can still Astral project to the tower." Carina put a finger on her chin.
"Then I guess the only thing we can do now is wait." Barn said as he folded his arms and closed his eyes.
...
After waiting for almost two hours the witches and warlocks began to hear footsteps from the distance and they looked back to see a young man in a black coat walking towards them, holding a spear in a brandished form.
They were all confused as this wasn't bloodborn.
...
It took Dexter more than two hours to finally get to itasin forest. To run to this place, he felt exhausted. He had to kill a lot of creatures to even reach the forest and he entered, prepared to fight and face some stronger creatures.
He was shocked when he saw a straight path with creatures dead by the sides.
"What?" Dexter mumbled in confusion and he summoned his shadow spear in case of anything.
As Dexter went deeper into the forest he was more scared than anything. But fear was just a way to die so he thought of what he could gain by coming here.
Saving his family.
The more Dexter went deeper into the forest the more shocked he was.
"Huh? The creatures before didn't have... any injuries." Dexter said as he looked at creatures who has a lot of injuries as if they were fighting themselves.
"More than one seventh class creature. Like that golden eagle, they should have skills too. This is even more dangerous than I thought it would be." Dexter mumbled as he listened to the surrounding noises as he walked further, using the memories of Brian as a compass to find his direction.
"Hm?" Dexter raised a brow as he saw five people close to the carved symbol of hell he saw in Brian's memories.
He furrowed his brows and continued walking forward, and soon, they all looked at him as he walked towards them.
Before Dexter could open his mouth to talk a silver haired woman, wearing a silver cloak walked up to him.
"You're the one bloodborn sent?" She asked him and he raised a brow.
"I don't know who that is." Dexter said as he looked at the castle in the distance which had an eerie atmosphere, making him uneasy.
