Chapter 985 - A DANGEROUS GAMBLE
The mass of vampires, who have been camping outside of the earth dragon shifters\' castle watched as a girl, around the age of thirteen or fourteen, walk in with confidence, all calm and composed. She carried herself very well and the aura around her demanded for them to oblige her, which was a little bit disturbing, since all of them couldn\'t sense what this young girl was. She looked like a mere human.
Yet, there was something about her that felt very dark and threatening.
"I have been waiting for you so long, what took you so long, Terra?" Dimitri said. He looked pleased when he watched the girl make her way toward him.
The girl named Terra turned around to face the crowd, as her purple cloak fluttered around her small body.
"I brought an order from Beelzebub," she said calmly.
"What is it?" Dimitri\'s eyes glinted with excitement, especially when he noticed the subtle way Terra glanced at the castle behind them.
"Something interesting, of course," Terra replied with a vicious smirk. She was full of herself for getting assigned with this task. She loved how her handiwork would look like later when they managed to complete it. "Shall we go inside?"
The smirk on Dimitri\'s lips grew more vicious, it made Xerxes frown deeply. He wondered from where exactly Dimitri knew this strange girl.
"So, this is the time?" Dimitri followed behind Terra, who was walking straight toward the high perimeter of the castle, ready to take it down.
"Yes," Terra said joyfully, her eyes gleamed with something terrifying and the vampires found themselves reluctant to ask her origin.
This girl was darker than when the rest of them were combined…
"There is a baby inside this castle… find him and bring him to me alive," Terra said before she stopped walking just a few meters away from the castle gates, which were now heavily blocked and guarded. The lycan warriors behind it were ready to take down anyone who trespassed their defenses.
However, the problem was; how long could they keep up with the fight?
It didn\'t look like they would be able to stand their ground for long.
On the other hand, when Dimitri heard what Terra said, he relayed the word to his people and made sure that they understood the gist of it.
Most of them only nodded their heads, but their eyes still lingered on Terra, filled with confusion, yet there was something about her that left them hesitant to question her and Dimitri\'s status made them follow his order without much protests to voice out.
After all, this was what they wanted, taking down the sanctuary of the lycanthropes which was occupied by important Lycans or their mates.
"What will you do?" Xerxes\'s interest was piqued when he saw Terra drawing a circle around her with a dry branch that she found, on the ground.
The girl tilted her head and grinned, the kind of grin that you didn\'t want to see. "Watch and learn," she said secretively. "It will be something grandiose… you better take a few steps back."
Dimitri took Xerxes\' elbow and dragged him away from the little girl.
More than hundred pairs of eyes watched what Terra was about to do and no one could predict what would happen next.
Meanwhile, after Terra completed drawing a total of three circles around her, she looked up toward the sky and stretched out both of her hands, as if she was about to reach for something, while chanting something in an ancient language that Beelzebub had taught her.
It was a spell. A dark spell.
Xerxes had encountered many dark witches, so he knew what the spell was about… but, what did this girl intend to call?
However, his question was answered almost immediately when he heard a rumble from the dark sky as lightning struck across the horizon, creating a bright streak of light in the murky clouds.
Subsequently, a series of rumblings came from the sky, yet they were different from the thunderous sounds ensued a lightening. These sounded more powerful and felt like they came from something that was alive…
A loud gasp erupted from the masses they watched some movement; more precisely something flying behind the dark clouds.
And after that gasp, they shrieked in disbelief when that something showed it true self.
It was a dragon!
A dragon beast!
The kind that had been deemed not to appear in that form because of the spell placed by the lycanthropes on them.
But, how could this happen?!
"Is that a dragon beast?!" Xerxes was in disbelief, not to mention him, even Dimitri didn\'t have any prior knowledge about this.
The people behind the two vampires backed away, when a dragon lunged onto the ground and flapped its majestic wings, just in time not to be swiped off their feet.
Once again, Terra turned around and faced the astounded vampires. "Shall we begin the eradication?" she smiled softly and harmlessly.
==============
All of the lycans gathered around in the front yard. They were in awe as they watched the magnificent earth dragon beasts before their eyes, as their mouth opened slightly agape.
There were around fifty earth dragon beasts before their eyes and all of them seemed confused and didn\'t know what they should do, as they tried to flap their wings as if testing which caused more damage around them, yet they couldn\'t fly like what the rest of the people expected.
It was very confusing, since this was the first time they had shifted into their beasts and was not able to adapt well.
How could the fire dragon beast could do it so easily? Since it was their first time to shift too…
"I hope you have made the right decision regarding this." Kace stood beside Torak watching the beasts, and narrowed his eyes when they made rumbling sounds and destroyed a line of trees.
"Let\'s hope so," Torak said, there was no emotion in the way he talked, because he didn\'t want to show it.
On the other hand, Lilac was ready to take the beasts down if they made any threatening moves. No one could guarantee which side they would take.
It was a dangerous gamble, after all.
