My Wives are Beautiful Demons-Chapter 730: Daddy’s going to die now!
The destruction engulfing the coliseum could be seen for miles. In the crimson sky, explosions of infernal blue energy continued to illuminate the clouds like constant lightning, each collision producing shockwaves capable of making the floating ruins tremble. Even far from the center of the battle, the ground still shook at irregular intervals, as if the world itself were reacting to the violence of that confrontation.
Far below where Vergil and Dante clashed, a gigantic crater remained open like a wound in the coliseum’s structure.
Broken stones, destroyed columns, and fragments of ancient architecture were scattered everywhere, forming an uneven landscape of smoldering ruins. Small sparks of magical energy still coursed through the air, remnants of spells and techniques that had been unleashed minutes before.
It was there that Sapphire finally appeared.
Her body surged forth in a blur of such high speed that the surrounding air distorted for an instant. The demonic aura that enveloped her still crackled with black lightning, signs of the rage she had unleashed earlier upon seeing Vergil fall during the fight.
Her eyes scanned the crater quickly.
She didn’t take long to find her.
Alice lay between two enormous slabs of broken stone, partially covered in dust and rock fragments. Her body seemed fragile in that devastated scene, like a small figure lost amidst the aftermath of war.
Sapphire rushed to her immediately.
She knelt beside the girl and carefully brushed away the pieces of stone that had fallen on her arms and legs. Small cracks of energy still ran through the ground around them, reminders of the explosion that had hurled Alice to that point.
"Alice."
Sapphire’s voice was firm, but laden with concern.
She placed a hand on the girl’s back and carefully lifted her, supporting her against her own body. Alice let out a small groan as she regained consciousness, her eyelids trembling as she slowly came to.
For a few seconds, everything seemed distant.
Confusing.
Then Alice opened her eyes.
It took them a moment to focus, but when they finally recognized Sapphire, her breathing stabilized a little.
"Sapphire..."
Her voice came out weak.
Sapphire gently held the girl’s face.
"Are you alright?"
Alice blinked a few times, trying to organize her thoughts. Her gaze still seemed somewhat lost as she observed the surrounding scenery, trying to remember exactly what had happened before she lost consciousness.
Then she heard it.
In the distance.
A gigantic explosion echoed through the coliseum.
The entire sky glowed red and blue for a second.
Alice immediately turned her head towards the battle.
Her face became serious.
"The fight..."
She tried to stand, but her body was still too weak.
Sapphire held her shoulders firmly.
"Calm down."
Alice turned her face to her.
"How’s the fight going?"
Sapphire hesitated for a second.
She looked at the horizon where columns of energy continued to explode in the sky.
"Vergil is fighting."
Alice frowned slightly.
"Against whom?"
Sapphire answered bluntly.
"Against Dante."
Alice froze for a moment.
But Sapphire continued.
"And Angelo."
The effect was immediate.
Alice’s eyes widened.
It wasn’t surprise.
It was panic.
Her face completely lost its color as her breath faltered for a moment. Her gaze became blank, as if something inside her mind had just connected multiple points of an invisible line.
She saw something.
Not in that place.
But somewhere inside her own mind.
A future.
A fragment of something that hadn’t happened yet.
And it terrified her.
"Alice?"
Sapphire immediately realized something was wrong.
The girl’s gaze was completely different now.
There was fear there.
Real fear.
Alice gripped Sapphire’s arm tightly.
"We need to go."
Her voice was now trembling.
"Now."
Sapphire frowned.
"What?"
Alice tried to stand up again, completely ignoring the pain in her body.
"We have to go fast!"
Sapphire held her shoulders again.
"Calm down."
She tried to understand. "What happened?"
Alice lifted her face.
Her eyes were completely terrified now.
"I saw it."
Sapphire blinked.
"Saw what?"
Alice swallowed hard.
Her voice came out almost as a whisper.
"The future."
Sapphire’s heart skipped a beat.
Alice squeezed her arm even tighter.
"Daddy..."
Her breath caught in her throat for a second.
"Daddy’s going to die."
Sapphire froze.
Alice raised her voice.
"Daddy’s going to die now!"
The scream echoed through the crater.
And for the first time since the beginning of that battle...
Sapphire felt a genuine chill run down her spine.
The destruction engulfing the coliseum could be seen for miles. In the red sky, explosions of infernal blue energy continued to illuminate the clouds like constant lightning, each collision producing shockwaves capable of making the floating ruins tremble. Even far from the center of the battle, the ground still shook at irregular intervals, as if the world itself were reacting to the violence of that confrontation.
Far below where Vergil and Dante faced off, a gigantic crater remained open like a wound in the coliseum’s structure.
Broken stones, destroyed columns, and fragments of ancient architecture were scattered everywhere, forming an uneven landscape of smoldering ruins. Small sparks of magical energy still coursed through the air, remnants of spells and techniques that had been unleashed minutes before.
It was there that Sapphire finally appeared.
Her body surged forward in a blur of such speed that the surrounding air distorted for an instant. The demonic aura that enveloped her still crackled with black lightning, signs of the rage she had unleashed earlier upon seeing Vergil fall during the fight.
Her eyes scanned the crater rapidly.
She didn’t take long to find her.

Sapphire rushed to her immediately.
She knelt beside the girl and carefully brushed away the pieces of stone that had fallen on her arms and legs. Small cracks of energy still coursed across the ground around them, reminders of the explosion that had hurled Alice to that point.
"Alice."
Sapphire’s voice was firm, but heavy with concern.
She placed a hand on the girl’s back and carefully lifted her, supporting her against her own body. Alice let out a small groan as she regained consciousness, her eyelids trembling as she slowly came to.
For a few seconds, everything seemed distant.

Her breath hitched for a second.
"Daddy’s going to die."
Sapphire froze.
Alice raised her voice.
"Daddy’s going to die now!"
The scream echoed through the crater.
And for the first time since the beginning of that battle...
Sapphire felt a real chill run down her spine.
"What?" She questioned.
"Come on, we need to intervene! Daddy’s going to die!" She screamed desperately, rising to her injured state. Her body healed, and she opened a portal.
"Let’s go!!!" she shouted.
