Chapter 225 - The Night Battle (Part 3)

225 The Night Battle (Part 3)

“Oh, my God! What happened to you, Anne?” Xavier was in shock when he looks at Anne’s face, the blood on her forehead that was untreated, and also bruises on her arm and cheek, he was livid, and he asked her with gritted teeth, “Who did this to you? Was it the two of them?!”

She shook her head, trying to calm him down, “It doesn’t matter, we need to go back to the healer’s tent, the other…”

“No! I will crush this two…” His anger was so out of control, Anne need to hold tightly to his body.

“No! Xavier, there is a more pressing matter, just restrained them and let us go back to the healer’s tent.” She was desperate. She never thought he could be this stubborn.

Darla already finished restraining the two enemy knights. She turns her attention to her stubborn captain. “Look, Anne was right. Besides, she can heal herself inside the healer’s tent. You should pay attention to her wound now.”

He looks at Anne, his thumb brushing into the scratches and bruises on her face, Xavier took a deep breath and carries Anne on his arm while talking to Darla. “You took those two. Let’s go to the healer’s tent.”

They work quickly and run to the healer’s tent. Thankfully, there were no other sudden attacked, probably because they encountered Anne, earlier. The purple color hair healer jumps into one of the patients and tending their wounds. She once again ignores her own injuries.

Darla and Xavier looked at each other and rolled their eyes, they knew that she will be going to tend to her patient first and not even going to heal her own wound.

“Cap, you need to do something. She’s your lover, your responsibilities now.” Whispered Darla, half teasing her captain.

.....

Xavier’s glared at her, not amused by her teasing, “Shut up, and where is your own lover? He disappears as soon as he was done helping you in the battle.” He goes to Anne and begins to put a salve on her face. “Where is he, anyway?” f𝑟e𝙚𝒘𝗲𝚋𝚗oѵ𝘦𝙡. c𝒐m

“Helping his one true love, the primary captain Vale.” Said Darla with a gruntled.

Brom indeed follows Vale into the deeper section of the port, both of them were assisting Justice and Jason, while King Edward took a retreat after sustaining some injuries, Henry is taking him to the healer’s tent, with other knights ready to defend the king.

Justice took his time to retrace the leader of the rebels, while the others tried to control and took dominance of the rebels’ headquarters, they gain control of the port, but never saw Javier in every part of the attack.

“I’m not liking this, Justice, where is Prince Javier?” Said Vale, while he tried so hard to use retrace spells in every room that they can find in this secret underground complex.

“Primary captain, should I help you?” Asked Brom with an enthusiastic remark, and Vale already knew if Brom acted a bit enthusiastic, he was going to do something unthinkable.

“Err… let me do it, Brom. Just conserve your magica for now.” Said Vale nervously.

Just couldn’t give it up, Brom pleaded once again to Vale, “Oh, come on, I have this new spell…”

Huffing his breath, Vale looks at Brom, trying to scold him as calmly as he could. “Brom! Enough! Let me work…”

The blue light spread into the surrounding area. It was Brom, using a retrace spell but with bigger coverage than Vale’s retrace spell. Brom smirked at Vale, which in response looked at him with concern on his face.

“Now, we have more area to cover, right primary captain?” Said Brom with a smug, he walk away with Jason and the other troops behind him.

Justice looks at his concerned friend. “What’s the matter?”

Turning to Justice, he took a sigh and said, “Brom power, it terrifies me.”

Justice gave him a shrug. “Well, he is clearly a talented magi, just like you. Imagine pulling a spell that covers a large area, the amount of magica that he needs to use.”

“Exactly.” Vale gave his point to Justice. “He was fighting alongside us for a while, but look at this level of the spell, how much magica he needs to conserve. Even I don’t have this much magica left.”

“How many percentages does Brom has?” Asked Justice, both of them observe Brom from behind.

“I forgot, but it’s closer to mine, although lesser.” Answered Vale to him.

He was in shock, “Then, that was unbelievable?! Imagined you probably lost more than half of your magica already at this point.”

“And he just wasted another half by using this enormous retrace spell.” Vale looks at Brom again, this time he went curious, “How is that possible, is like he got an endless amount of magica inside of him.”

Justice went quiet for the whole time after that. He was thinking of something, and whatever that is, he doesn’t like it, even for a bit.

“I got him!” The voice from another room makes the two of them run as fast as they could, and they saw it, just like Jason and Brom. It was Javier’s retrace scene, sitting and waiting anxiously, and then running outside into the winding hallway. “He was here just a moment ago.”

“Then, we must hurry!” Said Justice to all of them.

Together they followed the retrace spell of Javier, seeing their brother with a terrified look on his face, gave Justice and Jason a concern.

“Why does he look so terrified?” Asked Jason to Justice.

“I don’t know, but whatever it is, I got a sense we are not going to like it either.” Muttered Justice to his brother.

They have to walk for almost ten minutes, following Javier’s retrace, and that’s when they saw a large black door. Vale and Brom touch the door, and they turned to Justice. They knew Javier was inside.

“Everyone prepared your weapon.” Said Justice to all of his companions.

Brom use the fire spell that blew the door into pieces, they gathered around and run towards the other area beside the black door. What they are seeing in front of them was something that they could have never predicted before.

Javier’s body was unconscious in a pool of blood, right in the middle of the room.
