Where is my wife going

Chapter 44: 44



" Which is why I need to speed things up or it may be too late "

" Nephthys, you are not leaving and that´s final "

" Dillon, Deheeran, I am sorry. But if anyone understands me in this world that would be you two, I need to do this, I have worked too hard to get to this point "

She is right, no one understands better than us and no one understands better than her, we have no secrets even if we wanted to keep them secrets. We were bound to be discovered by one another the moment we got close to each other. We saw each other most painful memories… ….and it's precisely because we saw it all, that we don't want her to suffer any longer

***

" It is time we work on your hearing "

" Are you calling me depth "

" It's time you learn to master your sub element, air "

Avner now that he knew he wasn't insulted in any way got really excited 

" Once you master it you will be able to hear the vibrations of sound, hear things from miles away as if you were close by "

" Wow how cool I…."

Nephthys showed the palm of her hand for him to stop talking, her eyes seemed unfocused, even though he was worried he first let her finish whatever she was doing 

" Stand up "

she finally spoke 

" What happened ? "

" We are under attack "

" What ? "

he looked out of the window and saw nothing but he still knew she was right 

" Go call your uncle, I will try to hold them back as much as I can "

Nephthys had already put one leg on the window preparing to jump away but was stopped by Avners hand 

" I am coming with you "

" Avner, we don't have time for this, you need to inform your uncle so he can prepare to protect the mansion "

" I am not leaving you alone, I am either coming with you or I am leaving alone and you can go inform my uncle "

" ….. "

Avner wasn't going to back down this time, he knew she was very much capable but still….

" Fine lets go "

" Avner also leaned with his arms on the window, he was about to jump out of "

" Woah, that's pretty high "

he couldn't look down so he looked up 

" Are you serious right now, after trying to play the hero you're not even going to jump out the window ? "

" What, I haven't mastered the element of air yet, if I jump from here I will land straight on my face and die "

" Just do what I told you "

Nephthys tried to stick to the first plan where he would go and inform the others 

" Absolutely not…..just carry me "

It was Nephthys turn now to get off the window 

" Are you out of your mind " 

" What ? I am sure you can do it "

" Sigh….come on get on my back "

Nephthys turned around so he could get on her back while Avner grind happily, after she made sure he was stable she jumped out the window, right after she landed she threw him off her back 

" Auw, what was the purpose of this ? "

" I just wanted to do it "

" Throw me on the ground ? "

" Yes "

" …. "

" Just what kind of…."

Avner was stopped before he could finish talking but he wasn't mad, he wasn't mad at all because her hand was touching his lips 

Nephthys was trying to concentrate in order to hear the demons exact location 

" Stay here for a little, I'll be back "

she informed him and jumped away 

" What ? Wait ! "

but it was already too late, Nephthys was gone 

***

" Here you are " 

Nephthys was prepared to fight but the demons didn't seem to be interested in her at all, they just kept running in one direction, she was trying to figure it out and she finally did. The eyes of the demons were yellow, someone was controlling them, realizing that fact she jumped back to Avner while still in the air she contacted the Duke 

" Duke we are about to be ambushed by demons prepare as much men as you can "

" Finally, where did you go like that ? "

after landing she was greeted by a angry Avner 

" I told you I was going to come back "

" That is not the point "

" You could've put yourself in danger "

" Avner I would love to hear you nagging but we don't have time right now "

He wasn't happy about how lightly she was willing to put herself in dangerous situations 

" Fine, I'm sorry. I promise I will let you nag me when this is all over "

" sigh "

Avner couldn't say anything but take out his sword since the first group of demons appeared 

Avner and Nephthys fought diligently soon after the Duke and his men appeared 

after some time into the fight something didn't seem right, 

´the demons don't seem to want to attack us it's more like they didn't even see us, they have only one target and we are in the way….the target is….Avner ´

Nephtys finally realized it 

a lot of our people were down while Avner was surrounded by demons, he was still somehow managing but for how much longer

" Aahh…."

" Avner !! "

Avner was struck by the claws of the demon his uncle and cousins were trying to somehow get to him and help him but they weren't in a better situation themselves, Nephthys was going to take actions 

she calmed herself down

breath in, breath out, breath in, breath out 

with each exhale the air became cooler and coolers and by the last breath out, all demons were frozen in a thick layer of ice but she knew it wasn't going to end there because more and more demons were on their way….a hundred maybe three hundred, she wasn't sure, she couldn't keep count they were too many. Nephthys knew she had to protect them and she didn't have much time till the next demons appeared 

" Wha….what is happening ? "

under each and every one of the allies, there formed a little vortex the little vortex kept them in the air some more while Nephthys prepared a safe spot for them

she punched the ground making a loud sound which then led to a little earthquake after that a part of the ground started to rise at a high level, the piece was big enough to fit all of them and high enough to protect them, after she made sure the land was stable she finally put them all on in except Avner, Avner was still down with her 

the demons were almost there, and it was lots of them and more kept coming and coming 

" Avner "

" I can still fight "

Avner was bleeding heavily but was still standing

" I am proud of you "

Nephthys gave him a little smile 

" But you still have a lot of growing to do and that's not gonna happen if you die today "

" I am not going to die "

Avner tried to reassure 

" I know, because I will make sure of that "

Nephthys took him by the waist and jumped with him on the piece of land where everyone else was on
