Lord Of The Witches

Chapter 16 - Chapter:-16 Betrayal (Part-2)



It was like standing in a graveyard, Azik gave off a spooky feeling. Those yellow crystal eyes ,it was like flames of retribution burned inside them. His body was cold, skin pale and dark. But he was handsome nevertheless.

He looked towards Roland and then towards other, he looked into Nana's eyes and saw what had conspired here. They say that [Eyes are the window to soul]. This was one of the abilities his [Death god ring] provided him with, [Soul gazing].

He once again turned towards Roland and said in a cold tone ,result of the [Corpse-collector] potion. "One of your maid, named Tyre was seen sending messages through [Messager bird]. 'He' has captured her, they are coming here for Interrogation."

Saying so Azik took out a piece of paper with something written on it and passed it to Roland, so that he could see the content of the letter.

Roland stepped forward, talking the piece of paper from Azik's cold hands with a frown on his face. His eyes focused upon the words written on it.

He pupils shrank as he read "I was successful while mixing poison in Roland's food, but it didn't had any effect on him, I suspect that he has not taken the food. I will try to get rid of him when he retreats to the [Longsong stronghold]..."

Roland had a smile on his face, if one were to look carefully enough then they would see the terrifying glint inside his eyes.

'It looks like she was the one who poisoned my food...Looks the Garcia wants to get rid of me first. Unfortunately, a [Clown] isn't easy to kill.' his constitution had already alerted him about the danger in eating the food.

"Since she will soon be here, let's ask her some questions who knows maybe she is innocent. Let's give her a chance....!!!!" The smile was still there on Roland's face.

Roland replied to Azik who just shrugged and turned towards the castle wall, he narrowed his eyes before asking "Did they send someone from [Longsong stronghold] to negotiate with you....????"

Roland also turned towards the castle wall and replied in an amushed tone "I rejected him....." Azik nodded before leaving the corridor and walked inside the [Study].

Cynthia, Mellena, Kattara and others were busy observing Azik as different thoughts popped inside their mind. Mellena thought 'So he is the last leader of His Highness organization. He reeks of death but no blood-lust.....'. As a [Light-magic] user ,she was sėnsɨtɨvė to aura of other people.

Azik had an desolate-aura around him, it was like he used to be a graveyard watcher. The heaviness of souls around him was intense.

Roland turned towards the witches before saying with a smile, the piece of paper in his hands was tightly held. "Why don't you guys continue, Kattara !!! Please take care of the intruders. I will be discussing on important matters so you guys discuss on your own."

"As you wish ,His highness....." The maids replied before Kattara left the place to search for the intruders.

Cynthia took Anna and Nana to their rooms, before going Anna glanced at Roland who just smiled at her before turning around, he walked towards the [Study] where Azik was sitting.

Mellena didn't know about Azik or Roland's personal strength and was worried that Nightingale could hurt them. Remembering the order that Kite gave him, she had to protect the leaders at all costs.

The floor once again creaked as she followed them inside the [Study]. The room was lightened by a fireplace and some candles, giving it a classic feeling.

Roland walked towards a study and started searching for something on his desk, Azik sat on the couch whereas Mellena and Cynthia remained standing.

Tik tok tik tok tik tok...It was already 12:00, darkness had descended upon the town, lamps and tourches illuminated the place. The night was cold, Creak.....Sound of footsteps were clearly heard by them in the silent night.

Nightingale went invisible, Mellena raised an eyebrow but ignored her. She turned her head towards the sound of the footsteps which were now close to the door.

Tap..Tap..Tap...The sound stopped ,the knob twisted and pushed forward causing the door to open, under the light of the fireplace, a figure wearing White cloak could be seen standing at the entrance.

Behind him were two more individuals, first a women ,wearing bllack-white uniform, she was a maid ,her name Tyre. She had brown eyes and fair skin, quite beautiful for a maid. Even the poor lighting of the room couldn't hide her figure.

She had a nervous expression on her face, sweat rolled down her face, her cheek muscles tense ,she tried to maintained her calm face but Kite's presence disrupted her rhythm.

Behind him was the executioner ,wearing a grey coat and hat ,unlike Tyre he was trembling badly, Kite has been using a [Hallucination potion] to install fear inside the executioner.

"Don't worry I just want some answers....." though he was smiling, under the illumination of the candle in didn't look like his usual smile.

Instead it gave them terrifying chills, the room was abnormally cold and quiet until Kite moved towards one of the sofa and sat down.
