Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 1131 Power Awakened
Crystal’s POV:
It was only then did I realize that I was bawling because of extreme concern and distress. I lowered my head in an attempt to hide my emotions.
“Strong winds,” I quickly said, trying to deny the emotions I was going through.
“I’m not crying.”
Rufus didn’t say anything and just looked at me with a meaningful expression on his handsome face. It made me feel so uneasy and self-conscious, and so I decided to tum into a wolf again. I immediately attacked the python, but this time, I made sure I hit it on its vital part.
Since Rufus had already dealt the huge beast significant damage, it wasn’t able to defend itself anymore.
It let out a pained hiss, and fell to the ground with a loud thud. I honestly thought that that was the end of it, but I saw that the monster was still putting up a fight.
Its body was still wrapped around Rufus, seemingly unwilling to let go.
Tears just began streaming from of my eyes at the sight. I gnawed on the python’s body, hoping it would loosen its grip on Rufus soon.
If not, the man I adored the most would really die.
“Crystal, it’s okay,”
Rufus softly said, trying to comfort me as I continued attacking the python.
“It can no longer do anything to me. It can’t hurt me.”
“Okay?!” I repeated, unable to believe what I was hearing.
“This monstrosity will crush you to death!” I felt like I didn’t have time to even think. I just attacked and attacked the animal. I noticed that sweat already forming on Rufus’ forehead. This monster. . . was really going to kill him! From the corner of my vision, I saw a number of soldiers approaching to help. Unfortunately, the python let out another powerful hiss, instantly knocking them to the ground.
Worse, blood had already come oozing out of their ears.
Even I wasn’t able to escape the deathly effects of this sharp, ear- numbing noise; blood had pooled inside my mouth, which I then had to spit out. I was becoming more and more desperate by the second.
It was then when Yana’s voice came through.
“Only a witch’s power can defeat the beast.” I wiped the blood at the corners of my mouth.
I had no choice–I had to use my witch power.
It was dangerous, but if that was what I had to do to save Rufus, I would gladly do it.
As I was preparing myself to unleash everything I had, I heard cawing from above me.
I looked up and saw a murder of crows circling above me.
They graciously flapped their wings, as if greeting me warmly.
These birds were my old acquaintances.
Family, I always claimed them.
I hadn’t really seen them in the last five years because I only summoned them for extreme emergencies.
So I found it strange that they had come.
I still hadn’t used my strengths.
Why were they already here? “Maybe your powers have upgraded yet again?”
Yana, too, was puzzled and was taking a bold guess.
“Maybe they don’t need you to summon them anymore–they can just tell when you’re in danger.”
“I would have felt it if that was the case. I didn’t feel anything at all,” I answered, still confused as to what was happening.
All of a sudden, the crows above me dispersed, and flew to the direction behind me.
A growing coldness began penetrating my skin.
It was only then did I realize what truly was happening.
My heart began to sink.
I quickly turned around and saw my daughter surrounded by crows.
Her eyes were distant, dark, and cold.
Dark clouds were already gathering above, and icy winds had begun picking up.
“What the hell! When did Beryl awaken her powers?!”
Yana’s panicked screams were filling my head.
“We have to calm her down, or else she’ll lose control and wreak unimaginable havoc!”
The sky was becoming darker and darker–light was either blocked by dark clouds or the crow’’s dark wings.
I began walking towards Beryl with the attempt to calm her down.
Unfortunately, before I was able to come close to where she was, her potent witch power attacked me.
It made me fall to the ground as my whole body felt immense pain.
“Crystal! Are you okay?”
Worry colored Yana’s voice.
“Beryl’s witch power is erupting! I can’t just suppress her power by force, or she’ll hurt herself!”
I was already thinking of ways to help my daughter.
However, I saw her already walking towards where the python and Rufus was. She raised her arms, and in her childish, innocent voice, declared.
“Do not hurt my Daddy!”
In an instant, a strong burst of witch power rushed towards the python from my daughter’s little hands.
“Crystal! Are you okay?”
