Chapter 681: BLACK RAIN AND DARK SKY (23)

"I am strong enough, so stop treating me like I am not!" Abby was offended by what Cedric said. She didn’t need to be reminded of how weak she was, she was hearing enough people talking about that.

"Serafim..." Cedric wanted to stop her, yet Abby could be stubborn when she wanted something to be done. She had this bad habit of trying to prove herself, how she wanted to be useful in her wish to fulfill her role as the Serafim.

"Stay close with me," Abby said. Currently, Cedric was the only Holy Knights with her, while the other was assigned to do different task, especially Liam. Abby needed him to be away from her, because if this was Cedric’s reaction, she couldn’t imagine what Liam would do to stop what she was going to do.

"I still don’t think this is a good idea, Serafim," Cedric said, but Abby completely ignored his opinion, as she gathered her power.

Cedric could feel the current air became a little bit dense and heavy, but at the same time, it invigorated your energy, as if your exhaustion and your fear was being washed away.

Cedric watched how Abby summoned the Sylphs.

If the nature of the salamander was fire, in which it represented an offensive attack, Sylph was the opposite. Sylph’s nature was air, where the spirit was summoned for protection.

In the past, Abby learned how to summon the sylph from the previous Serafim, where the knowledge was passing down to the next generation, but due to her weak constitution, she only managed to fully summon the spirit air twice and it drained her energy each time.

The appearance of the Sylph could be said as a beautiful sight to behold. The current air swirled around Abby and bright light emanated from her body, which made her glowed under this dark sky and attracted people’s attention to her.

Many pack members stopped in whatever they were doing to watch this, including the shifters and the magic users from the Holy Kingdom. While the latter knew what the Serafim was going to do, the former didn’t have any idea what was that. A handful of shifters, who happened seen what Iris had done to Joel, was being reminded of that moment.

The Bloody Wolf pack’s member fell on their knees as they worshipped the Serafim before them, since in their eyes, she looked like a Goddess at this moment. They didn’t have any idea what Abby was going to do, but they believed, she was going to release her power.

For people, who was not exposed to magic as much in their entire life, what Abby was doing was very fascinating. It was amazing to witness such magic, especially when they could feel their energy returned, the pain they felt disappeared and for some reason, they were at peace.

This was the power of the Serafim. That’s what they thought.

On the other hand, the expectation in these people’s eyes forced Abby to go through and endure the pain, as the flow of her energy were disrupted, it was not stable because she had lost so much, as she had treated a few children from the illnesses before.

However, no matter what, Abby didn’t want to disappoint them. She rather liked it when people put their hope on her and believed she could do something wonderful and right now that was what she got from the member of the Bloody Wolf pack.

She wouldn’t let them down.

============================

Before they arrived at Red Claw pack, first they needed to go through Golden Light pack, but this pack was already under alpha Colter and Koda’s control, the two of them managed to defend the place from Golden Light warriors’ attack.

"Why we don’t stop?" Iris asked after some time passed, she just woke up. Her sleepiness came very often. "How long we have travelled?" She was sure, they had travelled for more than ten hours, at the very least, they needed to take a rest, especially those children, who walked on their feet.

"We will not stop until we reached the Golden Light pack and met with alpha Colter," Dean explained, which made all the sleepiness that Iris felt vanished, she frowned so hard.

"What about those children? They are walking on feet, following us! How long it will take for us to reach Golden Light pack?" Iris straightened her back, she felt horrified by what Dean said.

"In this pace, we will reach Golden Light pack within three days," Pax replied.

"And those children will walk for three days straight without rest?!" Iris stared at Pax in disbelieve. "And you will not say anything about it?!"

Dean and Pax lowered their head.

"Iris, there is nothing much we can do. All of these men are from the Rosantine Guild. They will not take order aside from Sir Lou." Della tried to calm Iris down. "Dean and Pax will not be able to go against them."

Not to mention about how they were outnumbered, these men were not their people and the two of them wouldn’t be able to change anything. Their protest would fall into deaf ears with no chance to fight them.

However, Iris was not satisfied with that statement.

"Stop the carriage!" Iris shouted, she leaned her body toward the coach seat, where the bald man was frowning at her. "I said stop the carriage!" Iris repeated what she was saying.

"What is it? You need to pee?"

Iris pressed down her embarrassment when she heard that. "We need to take rest, or else those children will not be able to catch up, they must be very tired!"

"If they are tired they can stop walking, we don’t force them to walk with us," the bald man guffawed and his fellow friend chimed in.

"Yeah, the rogue can deal with them."

This place was not safe, the path they took was where the rogue often appeared and the only reason why the rogue didn’t attack them because they moved in a large number, they wouldn’t be stupid enough to attack a large entourage like this, unless they outnumbered them, which was not likely.

Rogue attack usually consisted with three to five shifters and their aimed was a lone travelers or people, who they thought could be intimidated.

Iris couldn’t believe they didn’t really care what happened with those children.

"I said stop this carriage at once!" Iris roared.

Iris felt the anger rolled of her voice, which startled the two of them. She balled her fists tightly. If she was able to shift like normal shifter, she might have done that and attacked those two men by herself, because one look of her, you would be able to sense the killing intent that exuded from her trembling body.

Shocked, the bald man stopped the carriage and completely turned his body to face Iris. He had every intention to scold her for screaming at him like that, but the look on Iris’s face must have forced him to swallow back all the protest he was going to spit it out.

Dean and Pax had their head hung so low, Iris might not notice this, but she used her luna voice in full force, until it hurt the two of them. It almost felt like they were in the presence of their angry alpha, too scare to even make a noise, even the two men clamped their mouth and lowered their head, didn’t dare to look directly into those blazing blue eyes that filled with anger.

The air was still for a few second, nobody moved, neither they said a word, until Iris moved toward the carriage door and walked out from there.

"Luna!"

Dean and Pax immediately followed her out of the carriage. The alpha had entrusted her with them, if something happened to her, the alpha would have their head, especially after they learned the luna was currently pregnant.

Cane decided to tell them because they were going to protect her, in that case, they needed to know about her condition.

Of course, they were thrilled to hear the news, especially after the scheme that Sofia pulled, but at this moment, they had no time for the excitement.

"Why do we stop?!" One of them approached the bald man, he was not happy to delay the journey, but the bald man only shook his head and nodded at Iris, indicating for him to ask the luna himself.

"What happened here, luna? Go back to your carriage so we can continue our journey!" The man was furious, even more when Dean and Pax stood between him and Iris, preventing him from taking that woman back to the carriage by himself.

"We need to take some rest," Iris said, she walked toward the back of the entourage. While her carriage was in the front row, the children were walking at the last row, while in the middle it was a lot of carriage contained with so many precious items belonged to Rosantine Guild. "The children need to rest."

"They can stop walking if they don’t want to follow us!" the man grumbled loudly, irritated with what Iris decided on her own. "Go back to your carriage!"

However, Iris didn’t heed what he was saying, as she kept walking to the back of the entourage, while the other men mumbled and gave her nasty look, because she delayed them.

Yet, the moment Iris arrived at the back and saw the children, her blood boiled with anger.

"What have you done to them?!" Iris snarled and turned her body around to face these men.
