Chapter 940: THE FINAL BATTLE (6)
"Will!" Hanna called for Will, she tried to get his focus on her. She crouched down in front of him to block his sight, so he could stop staring fearfully at Osana. "Will! It’s okay! It’s okay!"
Yes, that was Osana. The forgotten princess that was not important enough for anyone to remember her.
Will thought he was already over what happened in the past, but the sight of her simply brought back the memory. He felt like he was recalling what happened a year ago. Every detail of it flashed before his eyes.
"Will! Please!" Hanna was anxious. They were in the middle of a battle, if Will was having a mental breakdown now, they could die from the attack of the monsters. Thankfully, some of the warriors came to their aid and protect them, but it wouldn’t be enough. "Focus on me! Focus on me!"
Will shook his head, as if he was trying his best to compose himself. He focused his sense on Hanna’s touch and her voice.
"I am here! I am here! You are not alone!" Hanna had to raise her voice because the loud commotion and menacing roars around them were very deafening, not to mention the rain that kept pouring down. "It’s okay, Will. It’s okay."
Hanna pressed his head against her chest and patted his back. Her eyes looked around her sharply, in alert just in case the monsters managed to go through the warriors and attacked them in their vulnerable moment.
But at the same time, Hanna could see the lycan was fighting Osana. Specifically.
There was a valid reason why Lu attacked her. Because he knew something that they didn’t. No. Rei knew about this too, but for some reason, he didn’t act on this knowledge.
He omitted this fact when he talked about the gates of hell. It shouldn’t be a surprise, since he was full of lies and shits.
Lu would be standing on the first line when everything had settled and the war had ended, to kill Rei with his own barehand. The lycan was not sure what kind of game that Rei was playing and even though he appeared defending Iris, he was not as aggressive as he showed to the people when he fought Decratic.
His determination to finish off Decratic was questionable.
A critical information that Rei failed to inform them when he explained about the gates of hell was the fact it needed a sacrifice, just like any other black magic. This was one of the reasons why black magic was prohibited, because it literally costed other people’s lives.
The gates of hell was like a portal that connected to a realm full of monsters.
The first time the gates of hell was opened was during Na’s lifetime. She was the one, who shielded it and separated the two realms. Lu was not sure how it really worked, but Na told him in detail about it.
’The black rain will taint the ground and opened the gates of hell, the dark sky is part of a series of events, where the extinct creature from the past will be revived again.’
That was what Rei said, but in truth, there was this last step.
There would be four people that you could call as the pillars of the gates. You would need these four people to sustain the gates of hell.
But, it was not random people, but the one that had been nurtured by dark magic. Exposed to it, which required a lot of time. Simply said, to open the gates of hell, was a very long term plan. We didn’t talk about a year or two, but decades of plan.
Na taught Lu how to differentiate people, who had been reeked by dark magic and met all the requirements to be the pillar.
And Lu saw one.
It was the forgotten princess Osana. She was still alive, but because of the curse that Haco put on her, she had to trade her life for it. She was nothing, but one of Decratic’s pawns. She survived the turmoil in the palace when Alan killed all of his siblings, so no one could contest his claim.
However, in return, Osana had to give up her life to be Decratic’s. She was one of the pillars and Lu recognized her among the monsters.
She was not a shifter, but you couldn’t call her a magic user. It was also still uncertain whether she was actually alive or not.
Because no matter how brutal the cursed creature was attacking her, she would heal very quickly and her body part would grow again, when it was being torn.
Lu was very disgusted by this. The aftermath of the black magic repulsed him more and more. What kind of creature Osana had become at this point?
The lycan stopped attacking the woman for a while, as he used his black wisp to ward off the attack from the monsters around him that interfered with his fight with Osana. The lycan looked like he was deep in thought, thinking of a way to get rid this disgusting woman.
And when his eyes fell on Lou, who was fighting the monsters along with the other warriors, he was thinking to try something.
Therefore, the lycan used its black wisp to get the merchant.
"Hm?" Lou frowned when he saw the black wisp that wrapped around his waist. He was familiar with this, but before he could comprehend what happened, his body had hurled in the air and he landed on his butt next to the lycan. "What the heck!?" he groaned, he felt like he broke his tailbone. "Can’t you be more gentle with me?! What do you want?!"
Lou had seen Osana, but because he had nothing to do with this woman and the lycan had handled her just fine, he didn’t think much of it, but now this lycan actually got him here. There must be something that he wanted.
"What? Do you want me to fight her?" Lou didn’t understand what this lycan wanted. "If you couldn’t even fight her, how can I stand a chance?" He was frustrated, because he didn’t understand what this lycan wanted. "Can’t you shift into your human form? This is really frustrating!"
However, Lou startled when the lycan cut a Nefilim into half in one swift move of his black wisp. He corrected his tone and became more polite.
"Please..." Lou grimaced. He couldn’t understand why this lycan wanted to fight Osana when he could literally kill all of these monsters and became a great help for them.
Thankfully, as the night came to end and the sun started to appear on the horizon, the lycan shifted into his human form and it was Cane that the merchant was facing.
"Thank heaven, it’s you!" Lou said joyfully when he saw Cane’s black eyes. He had learned this from Iris that you could differentiate them by the color of their eyes. "I am glad to have you back!"
At this point, Lou seemed to be more happy to see Cane than him seeing Iris, because he had never been so relief like this when he saw Iris, but he did feel this for Cane.
The rain was still pouring down, but now the sky had started to be less gloomy.
"What do you want me to do? I don’t understand you," Lou said. It would be easier to communicate with Cane when he was in his human form.
"Use the same energy that you used to destroy the spiderling on her," Cane said. If his guess was right, then it would work. Lu shared this knowledge with him during their transition.
"Oh, do you mean the divine power from Iris?" Lou asked to be sure that he didn’t misinterpret his instruction.
As Iris’s chosen protectors and bore the birthmark that was a symbol of his duty for Iris, Lou had a little amount of her divine power. It could be said all of them was able to use divine power into some extent and this ability only they figured out recently.
"Why don’t you use it? Ops. My bad. Forgot that you didn’t have it." Lou avoided Cane’s angry glare. No one knew whether he mentioned it because he genuinely forgot or the merchant simply wanted to mock the alpha, telling him indirectly that he was better than him. "Okay. Will do it. Can you hold her still. you must don’t know about this, but it required full concentration and you couldn’t distract me no matter what."
It felt good to be able to instruct Cane of what to do, after he accepted countless task from this alpha.
Cane narrowed his eyes and said nothing, as he tried to get Osana. The woman looked horrendous to say the least. She looked very enrage, but there was no word that came from her mouth.
But, if you took a closer look, you would be able to see the reason. It was because someone had stitched her mouth. They didn’t even want to waste their time to think, who had done it. Those people were immoral to begin with.
"Dang! Can’t you catch her!" Lou raised his brows when the black wisp missed its target because apparently Osana could move so fast. Her dress had been torn and it showed her thighs and some of her intimate part when she moved. "Euh. Can’t they give her a proper dress for a war? Like no dress?"
Cane glanced at him. The alpha seemed to have an extra patient when he faced this merchant’s mouth.
"What? I need to concentrate. You don’t know how difficult to control this power because you don’t have it." He became more confidence when it was Cane.
But, instead, Cane used his black wisp to wrap Lou’s body and his mouth, leaving only his eyes to see. He used the same black wisp to create a shield around him, so a nefilim wouldn’t be able to crush him under its feet or the other monster attacked him, while Cane shifted into his black beast and dashed away to get Osana.
This woman’s speed reminded him of Rei. Both of them moved so fast, though Osana was not as fast as him, thus Cane was still be able to catch her.
Meanwhile, the man that Cane compared to Osana had managed to control enough monsters to fight their own kind, where he and his people could take a breath.
Once everything was under control in his end, Rei immediately approached Iris. She still had this shield of protection around her, which made him unable to get close to her.
"Are you, okay?" Rei asked from outside of the protection. "Come with me, I will protect you. We will destroy Decratic together." Rei stretched out his hand with a gentle smile on his lips. "I know that you are angry with me because I killed the shifters, but they are not your people, Na. We are your people." He waved his hands toward the people from the Holy kingdom. "Come with me, I will keep you safe. We are going to take down Decratic together."
However, there was no response from Iris. She stared at his stretched out hand and what she was thinking was how great it was if she could cut this hand off. She wondered if he could grow his hand again if she did that?
"You can’t hate me, Na. You know very well how your negative emotions will feed Decratic."
Iris might not allow to have hatred toward Rei, but Ethan was different. His feeling was irrelevant and the more he heard about what this man said, the more he felt sick. Not to mention, this man was the one, who responsible for the death of so many warriors and how he almost lost Aliana.
In his rage, no one expected this when Ethan dashed out of the protection shield and clawed Rei’s face.

Hi, author here. Firstly, I want to thank you for supporting this story. I truly appreciate all the comment (I read them all even when I didn’t reply) and all of your support in any form you can show me.
And just like every beginning, we come to the end of the story. (what a wonderful journey that I have with you all!)
Secondly, I want to apologize for all the inconvenient throughout the story. (Personally, I am not that cruel. Lil Thing is my animal spirit.)
The story after this will be Bonus Chapters and Side Stories of each character. There is nothing major will happen, since the main story has come to end. I will reduce it to one Chapter a day.
In the bonus Chapter, I will focus on Iris and Cane little family, while the Side Stories will focus on each side character (their back story before the main story or their story after this war. Since, I can’t write them and squeeze their stories into the main plot.)
I hope you enjoy these Chapters. (Treat this as a therapy and my apology for the trauma. ^^)
Last but not least, please support my new story if you like my imagination of werewolf story: Replacement Bride of the Alpha From the North.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
