Chapter 418

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The demons slowly turned to the source of the tyrannical pressure and realized that it was being emitted by the girls they were trying to kill and break: they tried to burn them, freeze them, drown them, stab them and beat them, and they also groped them and much more. Animal terror gripped their hearts. Now the horned ones understood why they could not do any serious harm to these strange girls.

Eve and Leila straightened with unhurried grace, as if spreading invisible wings. It was impossible to read anything on their beautiful faces, only deathly indifference and lifelessness were reflected in the clear bottomless eyes. They only needed scythes in their hands to become reapers of death.

The horned ones, exerting remarkable willpower, got to their feet and scattered… The only thing their souls screamed about: save yourself at any cost!

Eve and Leila disappeared at the same time, as if they had teleported. The ground beneath their feet exploded as if an artillery shell had hit it. In an instant, the girls found themselves near the horned man with the hammer who killed their dad. Eve grabbed the man by the legs, and Leila grabbed his hands, and each girl pulled him towards her.

«VU-OU-OUU-A-AA-AAA-AH!» – the demon howled from the heart-rending pain and fear.

~crunch~

The body of the horned one was torn along the waist. The girls literally tore the enemy in half! The intestines of the red-skinned demon fell out of the torso, and he, breathing madly, frantically tried to put them back in, while a puddle of his blood spread on the ground.

Eve and Leila took the sufferer by the hands and pulled him towards them again, this time tearing off his limbs… But quartering the villain was not enough for them…

The head of the demon with the face twisted from despair and pain was in the hands of the girl. One could see a bloody spine sticking out and severed arteries with blood gushing out from there. The dead demon’s pupils widened in disbelief.

Leila placed his head between her palms and almost tenderly began to squeeze her fingers, clearly deliberately letting her victim feel the painful death as long as possible. At the end, she brought her palms together with a sharp and quick movement. The mess of brains, blood and bones scattered for several meters, staining the girls, but they did not seem to care at all.

«AA-A-AA-AA! I DON’T WANT TO DIE!» – roared the demon with a katana-shaped sword, when suddenly a naked, blood-spattered reaper of death appeared right in front of him…

…

Meanwhile, Kyon, buried two meters underground, was writhing in hellish agony. He lost more than a liter of blood. His arms were torn off, one of which was torn out along with his shoulder, his sternum was turned into a bloody mess, and his brain was almost shaken into a homogeneous liquid! Synergy worked to the limit, pulling its owner out of the grave: it repeatedly increased the pain threshold, repeatedly stopped internal bleeding, prevented blood loss from the stump and shoulder, and even took on the role of damaged areas of the brain.

Lovr’s head was splitting with unbearable pain, and even his miraculous energy could not completely suppress it. And although there were no cracks in the skull (after all, carbon bones are too strong), the brain hit the skull very hard. Tinnitus was maddening, as well as the dizziness. Stars were exploding in his eyes. He received a serious concussion, after which people usually die instantly, but Synergy managed to connect the critically important severed neural connections, thereby pulling the owner out of the otherworld. One can safely say that this injury is much more severe than the one that Kyon received from the tigress.

According to Kyon’s rough estimates, the demon was the royal phaser at the 9th stage, that is, he had an advantage over him in three phases and three stages (3.3). The enchantment of the advanced phase makes the body stronger by 10 stages, and the fully developed head – by 20 stages, that is, one might say, he was hit by a hammer on the head by a practitioner 3 stages higher. This usually ends tragically.

In the case of Triana, the situation was significantly different. At that time, she surpassed a human in development by three phases and seven stages (3.7), while he had not yet performed the enchantment, and his head had not yet completed the improvement process (it took 9 months). He survived then for two significant reasons: firstly, the lion’s part of the blow was absorbed by the barrier bought by Bai for his beloved granddaughter, and secondly, the tigress attacked with claws, that is, a huge part of the power of her blow was extinguished by carbon bones and skin.

Kyon felt someone gently grab his waist and pull him out of the hole. Through a narrow gap in the half-open eyelids, he saw Eve and Leila, covered from head to toe with the blood of demons. They looked at him with emotionless faces and lifeless eyes, as if their souls had left their bodies.

«You… Coped…» – said Lovr and spat out a blood clot.

Hearing their father’s voice, the girls shuddered. Something in them came to life and squeezed painfully. Both of them had wet eyes, they swayed at the same time and, limp, collapsed to the ground.

Kyon held his breath anxiously, but quickly calmed down, because he could clearly hear their heartbeat, albeit weak, but stable. So everything will be alright with them!

Lovr did not spare Synergy for managing several birds. With their help, he discovered dozens of corpses in a small radius around. Someone’s limbs were torn out, someone’s head was torn off, some were brutally torn in half, and the rest had their reproductive organs completely torn (it was clear why) and their eyes were squeezed out. An eerie sight. There was a total slaughter. Not a single demon survived. It was clear who was to blame for everything.

What Eve and Leila did is impossible without the use of pure energy, including the technique of movements or at least the technique of sticking to the ground. There is no doubt that the girls fell into a state of affect, or even something more!

That was the plan of the «last hope». Lovr deliberately provoked the demon to torture him in front of his daughters. The loud inhuman howl of a man who lost his limbs in the most cruel way contributed to the psychological shock of his daughters. If the horned one had not felt the excitement of a hunter playing with a helpless victim, then everything could have ended differently, but in the end everything worked perfectly: Eve and Leila experienced a mental shock and awakened their hidden knowledge about the possession of energy. It remains to be hoped that they will not awaken the rest of their memories.

Now the main thing for Kyon is that the girls are safe, alive and well, even if they are unconscious. If you remember what they had to go through in the last hour, they will lie like this for at least a day, or even more. The smart decision now is to take care of himself.

The birds picked up the hands torn off by the hammer-bearer demon and helped to attach them to the owner. Using the earth element, Kyon fused the carbon skin, firmly attaching the limbs to the body. Then Synergy comes into play: to disinfect, to heal vessels and veins, muscles and tendons, nerves and other tissues. According to rough estimates, it will take a day, or even two. As for the restoration of internal organs and the brain, it is unlikely that it will be possible to fully recover even in 5 days, but the meeting of the clans is in 3 days.

When the recovery process stabilized, and nothing was threatening his life anymore, Kyon breathed a sigh of relief, which caused a sharp pain in his chest. What had happened still seemed unreal to him. So suddenly, like a bolt from the blue, he found himself in a situation on the verge of life and death. If his latest plan with the girls’ mental trauma did not work, he would be already dead.

{Kara… What a bitch you are…} – Kyon gritted his teeth in anger. And although the demoness is his wife, beloved one and even the mother of his child, there is no one to blame but her, because the squads find him through the marriage formation in the groin, and only the demoness has access there. That recent thought, which broke out in the heat of the moment, when he was on the verge of death – «I should have strangled her» – perhaps has nothing to do with reality. Only by going back in time and looking into the eyes of the woman he loved, he would be able to understand whether he was able to do this.

Until today, Lovr was not sure of the demons’ motives: do they want to kill or kidnap him? It would be logical to assume the kidnapping, because the princess, as far as he knew her character, would not be satisfied with just the sight of his severed head. But the truth turned out to be different. Why is it so?

Kyon used cold logic in his rational thinking. His mind quickly built logical chains, the probability of error in which is minimal.

The first question: did Kara get to her homeland unharmed? The answer: undoubtedly, otherwise how else would the demons get access to the tracking function of the marriage formation. And Vlada, with her development, was very unlikely to be hurt.

The second question: was Vlada able to catch up with her daughter when she left the Iron Throne? The answer: yes, because she had a tracking formation imposed on her daughter (and how else), besides, she is too developed not to catch up with a sled animal. And since Kara got to her homeland, then her mother did it too.

The third question: did Kara send the demons? The answer: most likely indirectly. Probably, she did it through someone, because if she had an elite squad under her command, or rather, even two, she would not have waited 9 months, but would have sent them immediately. Let’s say she would have given commands through a sound transmitter to keep the pregnancy a secret.

By the way, Kyon was in Cernos at that moment and was ready for the appearance of anyone. After all, he had a mighty striped cat under his command. At worst, he would have hidden somewhere if the horned bastards had appeared on the school grounds.

The fourth question: why didn’t Lucius send a squad to catch his daughter’s fiance, since the search function was built into the marriage formation? It can’t be that there is a sufficiently good reason why he will give up trying to capture the scoundrel who impregnated his daughter, spoiled some grandiose plans. In addition, he is an immensely talented «son of a goddess» with the legacy of the «mother»! Kara could not refuse the powerful, albeit poisoned, emperor. And she couldn’t hide her pregnancy either, because Vlada would have told Lucius everything! Kyon couldn’t find the definite answer. At this point, the logical chain ends. Not enough information.

The fifth and last question: who then sent the demons, if not the parents? Obviously, some authoritative acquaintance of Kara, whom she somehow persuaded to give her a squad of demons, or simply gave a task that he had to complete. And the girl did it right after the birth of the child.

And yet something is wrong: why would she kill her husband? No, it’s clear that she wants to finish off the rapist who knocked her up. The problem is that strong hatred must be released. Given the vindictive nature of the girl, she would definitely want to take his life herself at least, or even to torture him in a sophisticated way before that.

Based on the above, another version appears: someone blackmailed her to find and kill the groom. However, the chance of such an outcome is insignificant. Too exact a coincidence in time, besides, who would dare to go against the first princess of the Tristans?..

Anyway, the demoness failed to accomplish her plan, and even if the third wave arrives, which is quite possible, Kyon will survive, because now his daughters have remembered how to use energy! He can only hope that they will not remember everything else…

And by the way, he is grateful to Kara, because the souls of three dozen royal phasers and imperial phasers are very juicy.

{Souls… My souls!} – Kyon’s eyes widened as he remembered the most important thing.
