CHAPTER 11: HER ANCESTRY 4

Without any hesitation, she opened her mouth and answered, “Just tell me what it is. I will do it as long as I can become strong!” with determination and firmness in her tone.

In order to avenge herself against Hilary, Veda and that pack. She could do anything.

“Good! It’s actually very simple, you only need to ………………………………”

Her eyes widened in shock as she listened to the unconventional method the voice was telling her. Honestly, she never expected that it would be so dramatic. However, after the initial shock, she couldn’t help but burst into a mocking laughter.

“Haha, so that can also be done? Haha, can it really be done?”

“Yes. You will have to suffer a bit but it’s guaranteed!” the voice sounded very confident as it said that and Elowyn’s eyes flickered with anticipation.

Her lips curled upwards as she answered, “Then let’s do it. I don’t think that I have much use for these petty emotions.”

The space she was in fluctuated slightly, and Elowyn didn’t seem to see that. However, after that, a sharp dagger with strange writings on it appeared in front of her.

Elowyn looked at the dagger that had an enormous aura emitting from it and, without much emotion, she picked it up.

It was sharp and looking at the writings on it, Elowyn couldn’t help but find the writings a bit familiar. It was as if she had seen them somewhere, but she just couldn’t recall where exactly.

Nonetheless, with the dagger in hand, she knew exactly what she had to do. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes before snapping them open.

Without hesitation, she stabbed her heart in one strong move and coughed out blood, blooding her lips red. However, she didn’t let out a cry but gritted her teeth to suppress the pain she was currently feeling.

She pulled the dagger out. A very dangerous move because she might lose a lot of blood, but did that even matter?

With the dagger in hand, the pain seared all over her body and her body weakened due to blood loss. Elowyn nonetheless continued with what she was doing.

She held the dagger in her hand and slashed her left hand before mixing the blood from her palm and the heart. After doing so, she closed her eyes as she started chanting a mysterious chant.

As she does so, a figure emerges in front of her in the form of a woman. She was wearing a white cloak and a red lotus mark on her forehead. If Elowyn had her eyes opened at that moment, she would have been shocked to the core.

The woman knelt in front of Elowyn, who was obviously in pain but continuing to be strong as she continued to chant the hymn. Surrounding her were golden sparks that were being drawn by the allure of her blood.

At the same time, she could see white and red rays that seemed to be fighting the golden sparks, but the woman simply waved her hands and the red and white rays were pushed aside.

Seeing Elowyn being enveloped by the golden sparks, a smile finally appeared on her face.

She reached out towards Elowyn and caressed her pale cheeks, saying, “My child. I have been waiting for ages to witness someone from my bloodline taking over from where I left off. I was a coward and failed to avenge myself despite the power that I held.

Now that there is you. I will not allow the last seer of my line to disappear in the hands of a scum of a man. I will help you cut this useless link that does nothing but restrain the supernatural. I was once tied to such a link, but I spent the rest of my lifetime raising a child to find ways of breaking the soul link.

Fortunately, I succeeded in my research. Unfortunately, my work was lost and wasn’t inherited by anyone at all. Thankfully, in my soul form, I still managed to linger around for a long time. And I got to see and meet you.

From now on, you won’t have to suffer anymore. Pursue your heart and never be tied down by any emotions. It will be tough for you when you wake up. You might be cold and emotionless, but don’t worry, with time, you will adjust. It will get better.”

The woman sighed as she rose to her feet, seeing her fleeting power. Because of what she had done, she had exhausted the power that had been keeping her soul for centuries. However, she didn’t regret this choice that she made.

“Hmmm~” hearing Elowyn groaning, the woman shook her head, brushing aside any thoughts that she was having, and looked at Elowyn and smiled affectionately.

“My child, we will meet again when you are stronger!” she said with lingering affection before her silhouette disappeared as if it wasn’t there.

Moments after the vanishing act, a golden shield enveloped Elowyn and the wounds on her body started healing at a crazy pace.

It was simply too astonishing.

***

Meanwhile, in the real world, Hazel’s eyes had turned into crescents as she watched the crazy happenings in the cave.

She hadn’t taken a step away ever since she spotted what was happening to Hazel.

She had heard stories, legends and myths but had never witnessed the birth of a legend in person.

She was so excited as she watched how Elowyn was going through a transformation. She didn’t know what exactly Elowyn was seeing, but whatever it was. It was helping her become a seer at an insane speed.

The results that others achieved after spending years of hard work were what Elowyn was achieving in just hours. How could Hazel not be excited?

However, that excitement turned into worry the moment that she saw blood oozing from Elowyn’s chest.

“No!” she cried out in anguish and started banging on the shield, hoping that she could enter and save Elowyn, but the shield was tough as nails. She couldn’t go anywhere at all.

As if that wasn’t scary enough, the blood was oozing so fast and in large quantities. Her body was twitching, and she seemed to be entering a shock.

To make matters scarier, her left hand started bleeding again.

Hazel regretted performing that ceremony when she saw the pain and suffering this poor girl was going through.

She was envious of how lucky Elowyn was when she saw how Elowyn had succeeded in awakening her seer powers. But who could have guessed that it would end that way?

If only she hadn’t done that, perhaps Elowyn wouldn’t be killed by whatever illusions she was seeing.

Hazel’s heart ached so much. She wished she was very powerful to break that shield and save Elowyn.

Unfortunately, that couldn’t be done. She could only shake her head in pity as she watched the bleeding for a while.

However, as she was filled with remorse and pity, another magical thing happened. From nowhere, Elowyn was surrounded by golden sparks which shocked her so much, she stumbled as she murmured, “How can this be? Destiny ….. who is changing her destiny? What’s going on?”
