Stealing The Protagonist’s Yandere Lovers-Chapter 57 David’s Backers Are Too Strong?
Even though the night seemed serene with the full moon increasing the romantic mood, not everyone was playing their cards according to the routine.
Unknown to Elandor who was busy carrying the already asleep Jasmine back to the inn, David was about to undergo a terrific change!
"David, let's go to the middle of the abandoned city where we will have a better shot at things we want to achieve", said the old man.
Like an obedient follower, David nodded.
The old man's wife looked at David like he was her own grandson.
The more she looked at how obedient and respectful David was to them, the more she felt satisfied with him..further increasing her desire to help him fulfil his revenge.
If Elandor was here he would have definitely said, 'Oh grandma is something wrong with your head? No one is stupid enough that they would kill the chicken before it lays the egg.
If a person wants something from you..of course, he would hide his true face until he gets what he wants.
Just wait till you give him his stuff and you will see how big of a hypocrite one can be!'
"You guys remember to be careful and be sure to return fast!"
In the middle of the night, the pair of David and Eve followed behind the old man.
Within some minutes of walking, they reached the core area of the abandoned city.
Both Eve and David realised why this city was so dreaded.
One could hear some fleeting sounds, at first it seemed the sound was produced due to the occasional passing of winds over narrow cross-sections but when listened closely it seemed as if some people were whispering in the shadows.
The surroundings too were filled with a stench and rotten smell making it hard to concentrate.
Who would have thought?
Eve, who always tried to act strongly on the outside, was inwardly scared of such supernatural things.
She was already having goosebumps all over her skin.
Even though she had the curiosity of a cat, the numbness on her face due to David's tight slap and herself being slandered by him and the old man was still vivid in her mind.
After the incident, she had long realised that others just want her to follow blindly.
Soon the group reached the abandoned city's central area.
There was a stone pillar erected in between the street.
With just a single look, the pillar gave a frightful and gloomy feeling. Countless skulls were hanging on the top while its main body was covered by various skeletons.
With closer observation, one could easily figure out that the bones were of different shapes and sizes which not only belonged to humans but also to various wild beasts, long-extinct monsters and even some other human-like species such as dwarfs who lived in the far east.
After witnessing it, both Eve and David were in shock thinking about how many must have been sacrificed to build this pillar.
Suddenly the strange sounds in the air increased by a few decibels as they saw countless translucent shadows moving fanatically in their surroundings. It was as if they were screaming and warning them that this place was not where outsiders like them could step upon!
This time Eve was scared out of her wits as she started screaming, "Run!" 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
"These are the evil ghosts and resentful spirits of the fallen warriors, it is said that they can forcefully possess us and take away our sense of identity."
But once again both the old man and David ignored her like this was nothing in front of them.
The old man sneered, "Just some dead spirits dare to be presumptuous in front of me?"
He stomped his feet as he recited an ancient spell.
Soon a bright light radiated from him forcing all the spirits approaching them to cry in pain and retreat far away.
"That's all?"-David chuckled.
"Stupid spirits, it's already our benevolence that you are allowed to exist, my uncle and aunt have been living on the city's periphery even before you guys died."
"With their strength, cleaning all of you is only a matter of a few minutes."
Eve and David were not able to gauge the strength of the spell the old man showed but one thing was sure it was the strongest magic they had witnessed in their life.
If Elandor witnessed this, his eyes would have widened in disbelief as the energy fluctuations revealed just now were no less than a fourth-order powerhouse.
He would have surely said, 'the protagonists can't be measured by some common sense as long as they have the slightest of opportunity they would come back and turn the tables!'
"David, don't be bothered by such low-level things, once we make you stronger nothing should be able to stop you!" -the old man spoke once again in his haughty tone.
"Okay now let's not waste time."
The old man went closer to the dreadful pillar and started reciting some spells.
"Oh the resentful and vile ones, hear my call and help the chosen one! For he shall lead you to salvation and liberate you from your inescapable sufferings." 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
As he spoke the chants the surrounding air suddenly became cold, there was an eerie silence at that moment.
David and Eve had their heartbeats sped up anticipating what would happen!
Seeing nothing happening they felt the old man failed in whatever he was trying to do but before they could speak they heard a loud rumbling of thunder.
While their eyes were fixated upon the old man, various dark clouds started covering the abandoned city. Soon the moonlight was cut off by them causing the visibility to drop further.
Strong winds started blowing as raindrops started downpouring.
With the pillar as the centre, a large whirlpool of wind started forming due to the instability and turbulence created by the sudden change in the weather.
Soon all the resentful spirits and ghosts which were hiding and watching their actions from afar were pulled and sucked into the vortex that was formed.
Even though they tried to resist the suction was too strong for them.
