SWNOVELXO Chapter 80: Soul essence
And the next moment when he noticed that someone was about to come to that tree where he was hiding, Yohan swung the Asura with lightning-fast speed and the next moment the giant blue head could be seen floating in the air while the headless body ran a few meters and eventually fell on the ground.
Ding!
[Congratulations, host! You have successfully killed level 1 Demonic Reaper. You gained a Soul Essence]
Yohan heard a notification in his head but he didn't bother to think about anything as he ran away the moment he killed one of the Demonic Reapers.
Yohan was running here and there to confuse these demonic beings, and he became successful as these Reapers started searching for him individually.
Yohan got the chance to kill one of them as he was looking weak compared to other Reapers.
Yohan caught him by surprise and it took him a moment to kill him.
"He killed one of my men! What a crafty man, using those means to save his life," one of the demonic beings mumbled as he tightened his grip around the lance he was holding in his hands. He was standing on the hill as he looked towards the vast forest in front of his eyes.
Now only three of these guys were alive as one of their party members had been killed by Yohan. It had been three hours since Yohan had arrived at this place.
"This place is very odd, more like a training ground. I don't even know those guys. The moment I came here they tried to kill me. I was lucky that I killed one of those guys because he was overconfident and left his guard down," Yohan mumbled as he was lying inside the long green grass of one of the mountains. His gaze was directed into a particular direction.
But suddenly Yohan's heart sank as he heard something from behind.
"Come out, bastard, we know you are here, hiding somewhere on the mountain!"
Three figures appeared a few meters away from his current location as one of them said those words. Yohan's heart sank as he heard those words.
"How did they find me?" Yohan thought inwardly as his location was revealed. He was in a daze as he couldn't understand how they had found him here, but suddenly his gaze went in a particular direction.
"Damn it. They are here because that guy's blood is on my sleeves." Yohan looked towards his sleeves as he found the mark of blue blood.
A bit later, suddenly a giant lance collided into the ground and a giggling sound echoed in the whole surroundings.
"Did you kill him?" One of the Demonic Reapers looked towards the one who looked similar to him.
He nodded and both of them approached the place where he had attacked with his lance, and the next moment their leader also joined them, but when they approached that area, there was no one besides a cloth which was stained by the blood of one of their companions.
Seeing this, the leader gritted his teeth.
"He is smart, he found out about this." That Reaper looked towards the blood as he said those words.
"What should be done, leader?" One of the demonic beings looked towards the leader as he said those words.
"Keke! It's about time, look at the sky. We don't need to find him, he will come to us," he said as he looked towards the sky.
Meanwhile…
"Damn it, they are very persistent bastards, they almost caught me," Yohan mumbled as he was running in the opposite direction. His upper body was completely naked as he had removed his upper clothing that he had placed to confuse those guys, and he checked his entire body. He didn't find any of those blood stains.
But suddenly he halted his movement as his gaze went towards the sky.
"What the fuck is that?" he mumbled as millions of burning fireballs could be seen about to come towards him.
"Damn it, what the fuck is wrong with this place?" Yohan mumbled as he halted his movement and started running in a different direction to save his life as those burning fireballs started colliding with the ground and the whole ground started shaking. Smoke started appearing behind the area that he had left a few moments ago.
This thing happened in three directions in particular areas, only a single direction was safe. His whole surroundings were destroyed and everything was burning and on fire.
"Something is wrong, there must be a reason why those fireballs are not colliding that way, but I don't have any choice. I have to go that way to save my life but what about those creeps? Are they dead? They are not chasing me anymore so I assume they will die in those blasts," Yohan mumbled as he quickened his pace.
Meanwhile, somewhere inside the River Shore city inside the Phoenix Kingdom…
"It's about time." Evelyn mumbled those words as she opened her eyes and the next moment her gaze went towards Diya who was lying unconscious on the bed while some runes could be seen glowing in the blue light around her chest.
Evelyn took a deep breath and she looked towards Diya, and the next moment she put her face closer to Diya's face and it was inches away from her lips. Evelyn halted her movement as she looked towards Diya from up close one last time.
"You are indeed very lucky," Evelyn mumbled as her lips touched Diya's lips.
Suddenly Diya started taking deep breaths and grabbed the bed sheet with both hands.
Her whole body started shaking violently, while Evelyn's eyes started turning red as she started sucking something from her body.
Both Kana and Aana clenched their fists as they saw this and started looking towards lady Evelyn with a worried face.
The runes around Diya's chest started flickering with red, green, and blue lights, and finally they disappeared a moment later. Diya finally opened her eyes, but her lips were sealed with Evelyn's lips as she sucked some kind of energy from her body through her lips.
"My lady, stop, she comes to her senses, you will harm yourself." Aana and Kana both approached Evelyn and put their hands on Evelyn's shoulder.
Evelyn came to her senses and she freed Diya from her grasp.
Diya's gaze went towards Evelyn who was looking at her with a smile while her eyes were dark red.
"Who are you?" Diya mumbled slowly, looking towards Evelyn.
Evelyn smiled towards Diya.
"I will tell you one day when you become worthy to know my name, take some rest," Evelyn responded to Diya.
Hearing those words, Diya's vision started fading away and she fell into a deep sleep.
And the next moment Evelyn left Diya's bed as she felt dizzy.
"Damn it, I went overboard," Evelyn mumbled as she felt dizzy. Seeing that, both Aana and Kana appeared beside the lady Evelyn as they supported her.
"She will be all right soon, take me to the mansion." Evelyn looked towards Aana and Kana as she said those words, and her gaze went towards a particular direction and she closed her eyes.
Suddenly the old man's expression changed drastically as he heard something in his mind.
"She is all right, Lin, I am heading to my mansion." Those words resounded in the old man Lin's head.
Hearing those words, the old man Lin took a deep breath.
"Thank you, my lady, I will never forget this favour," the old man mumbled and the next moment his gaze went towards Alena.
"Diya is all right now, she has been saved." The old man Lin said those words, looking at Alena.
Alena's face bloomed as she heard those words. She couldn't believe her ears and her eyes became wet as she nodded her head and looked towards Yohan's room.
Meanwhile…
"We are done here," Evelyn mumbled and one last time her gaze went towards Diya, who was calmly sleeping on the bed.
"She is not an ordinary woman. She is unique. I just found something interesting here," Evelyn mumbled as she said those words.
"Let's leave this place. I don't want anyone to see me in this condition," Evelyn mumbled and the next moment she disappeared from that place along with Aana and Kana.
And the next moment when they disappeared, everyone entered the room to look at Diya.
The old healer also accompanied the old man Lin, Alena and Su Lin. The room was empty; only Diya could be seen sleeping on the bed.
The old healer approached Diya and started checking her pulse. The moment he touched her wrist his facial expression became stiff.
"She is breathing normally, everything is fine with her, but how did lady Evelyn pull out this feat? She was about to die, but now she is completely fine," that old man mumbled.
Alena approached that old man and grabbed him by his collar.
"Get the hell out of here and don't show your face, you old bastards, you are not happy that my daughter is fine!" Alena exclaimed as she threw him away from Diya's sight.
