Omega's Rebirth-Chapter 670: Not Like This ()

Neveah lunged in the next heartbeat, claws unleashed, she aimed for the dark fairy which turned out to be a miscalculation on her part, one Neveah immediately had to pay for.

The dark sorcerer was still in touch with his magic,

She had not even gotten far when a wisp of shadow wound around her ankle, wrapping itself tightly and it pulled her harshly down to the ground, her feet slammed right back to a standing posture, but with enough force, the ground beneath her feet cracked underneath her boots.

The feel of the shadow around her ankle was deathly cold, and the grip of the shadow was so tight, Neveah felt herself getting bruised even through the thick leather of her boots.

Not like Neveah had the luxury to be concerned about a bruise, at this moment, there was seemingly no way out for her.

Against magic, Neveah had one certain way out, but she could not risk it.

’Demevirld is not a consideration, we must do this ourselves...’ Neveah’s wolf thought to Neveah, the very same thought Neveah already harbored.

At this moment, Neveah could still feel Demevirld on the surface but his presence was not abundant on her end,

He was still connected to Jian, supplying him the added leverage he needed to reach Xenon. It had already been a day and more in Dragon Keep, but it would only have been a short time in the dimension, which meant Jian was yet to reach Xenon.

Demevirld’s ability was already stretched thin across time and space separating two dimensions, any interruptions at this moment would possibly have consequences.

Neveah pulled harshly to free herself, her gaze was narrowed into a fierce glare fixed on the dark fairy.

While the shadow suddenly had a form of its own now that it restrained her, it was futile to attack the shadow itself when it would only disperse.

Neveah felt her shift take over her and she did not resist it, it happened in the blink of an eye, bones twisting and snapping, her wolf forcefully ripped her limb out of the restraints and lunged at the dark fairy.

Neveah’s sharp, glinting claws only got a deep swipe across the upper arm of the dark fairy before her hind limbs were restrained by stronger binds of shadows and she was tossed across the room.

But that shriek of pain, and the smell of the fairy’s blood was deeply satisfying to Neveah.

The harsh slam into the wall that followed shifted Neveah back into her human form and Neveah struggled up to her feet, the sharp pain around her ankle revealed to her her wolf had snapped their own ankle to get free and the shadows still restrained her ankles.

Neveah was pulled across the room, the heels of her boots scraping the concrete as her back harshly slammed against the other wall,

The wetness of the blood freshly drawn on the walls seeped into Neveah’s skin through the thin fabric of her inner clothing and Neveah frowned in disgust.

More shadows surged at Neveah, restraining her arms and her left leg and Neveah growled low in her throat.

"Do not fight it...you cannot get away. Your strength and speed is commendable, child. But it is of no use against Leon’s shadow sorcery." The dark fairy advised Neveah in a tone of sympathy, whilst clutching her bleeding arm.

There was no fair fight when it came to magic, any form of magic at all and Neveah already knew this.

By strength, both the sorcerer and the dark fairy combined were nothing to Neveah, but magic was different... and even worse was dark magic.

"Do what you will then...why is it taking so much time?!" Neveah hissed in annoyance.

The dark fairy tilted her head to the side, watching Neveah curiously.

"Even at this moment, have you no fear of death?" The dark fairy asked Neveah curiously.

"Why? So you can feel some sort of satisfaction watching me tremble? Someone should have told you you would not find the satisfaction you seek with me." Neveah spat out darkly.

"Not even if your death will leave your dragon tortured and in such unimaginable pain that he himself may not live through it? Do you really believe you are my only target? Or you do not understand that your life is worth so much more now than the last time we crossed paths?" The dark fairy asked with a raised brow.

The unbothered expression on Neveah’s face slipped at that, it was just for a moment but it was still enough to have the dark fairy cackling in delight.

Neveah had known, but being confronted directly with it and what a severing would mean to Jian, or what her death would be to Xenon whom she had carelessly marked, a cold chill of terror ran down Neveah’s spine.

’They are strong...they will live. Dante lived, if it comes to the worst...they will live...’ Neveah thought to herself.

"In the end, we all have something precious to us. Do it, Leon." The dark fairy instructed.

At that, the mass of shadows that had been gathering outside the cell surged at Neveah, and hot, white pain slammed into her like a boulder.

Neveah gasped in pain as the deathly cold shadows encircled around her entire form, slipping into her nostrils, her partly opened lips and her ears too.

Neveah’s entire body spasmed in pain as the shadows invaded her body, she could feel her bones snapping and her muscles pulled taught, like she was being torn apart from within.

"You are still in luck, your soul will be ripped from you because attached to it is something we need, hence a piece of you will still exist...but your mortal body will die from the pain of soul extraction. It is an art of dark magic never before performed on a living person but once... you will be the second, you should be proud." The dark fairy still spoke.

Neveah could hear her words clearly even as the shadows tightened crushingly around the length of her body and even within her.

’They will live...but would they?’ Came a thought that shook Neveah to her very core.

’I cannot die like this... I cannot die like this...’ This was the only thought, chanted repeatedly in Neveah’s mind as her mind was clouded by pain.
