Chapter 85: Double Sacrifice
As Viktor said, the advisor of the king came running inside the office to deliver a letter immediately. Elena was surprised to see the man who came with a big pouch full of gold coins.
"What brings you here now?"
Viktor asked the man who was sweating from his forehead to toe after running a long distance.
"His majesty the king has sent you an apology letter. Please accept his money. And the king said he will take care of Miss Elena Pearlroy."
"That was quick."
Viktor opened the letter and saw the handwriting of the king who wrote the letter trembling in fear. And then,
"What do you mean by an apology? The king said this office is for only Alberto! Why aren\'t you leaving!"
The advisor laughed at her words and said, "You\'re telling the owner of the shop to leave because the customer doesn\'t like it? Miss Elena Pearlroy, you are under arrest for manipulating the king with drugs. Guards, tie her hands."
"What!! Wait!! What are you doing!!"
Viktor lit the apology letter on fire and asked her assistant to donate the money to headquarters. Because the money is going to be donated to the headmaster\'s account.
"Sir, your meeting time is almost here. Have you reviewed all the papers? The external members are already in their seats. We need to go."
"Yes. And kick this twig outside. I don\'t want to see his face ever again."
Alberto came back to his senses and some guards grabbed his coat to drag him outside like a fox who made its way inside a farm.
Tsk! I\'m getting sick of this damn story. Why can\'t that damn….
Viktor remembered something suddenly and kept his patience until the night. The cells inside his body were too excited to accomplish something that he remembered.
Why didn\'t I think of this before? Am I an idiot or something?
Outside his office in the evening.
"Master, you\'re working too hard."
"Adonis, let\'s go to the imperial dungeon. We have something to accomplish."
"Yes, master."
Adonis cast a teleportation spell and both of them vanished into thin air. Some people from his office witnessed that but they kept their mouths shut.
Somewhere inside the imperial dungeon.
The prince was trying to open the lock of a cell but no matter how hard he tried, the lock wasn\'t opening. The knight, David Lionheart was also in front of the cell waiting for his turn to break the lock and let Elena out of the cell but nothing was working.
It was the king\'s straight order to lock her up with holy magic and not to bring her closer to the king where she can make eye contact. The king knew she did something wrong to him. There was no way he would spend a night with the girl that his son linked. It was way out of the ordinary. So he assumed that she drugged him and made him do whatever she liked.
Her decisions were too hasty.
"Elena! Just wait. I promise that I will break this cell and bring you out! Just hang in there."
The dungeon was dark, filled with filth and mice. It was evening outside but the cell looked like not even a ray of light has entered the cell in decades. It was a sewage-like environment.
Inside the cell, her eyes were growing like wolves that carried mountain size grudges inside its heart. Waiting to bite the neck of that person who betrayed and left.
"Don\'t worry Elena, I will save you. I can do anything for you."
Suddenly, a magic circle appeared inside the cell and both of them teleported out.
"Oh my! What do we got here? Elena inside a prison in such a luxurious dress."
"You!!! How dare you! Kill him, Will! He\'s the one who put me in this miserable stage!!"
But the cell bars were made of the strongest metal engraved with holy magic. So the prince was unable to throw anything inside the cell. No magic attack spells were working either.
"Adonis, let\'s take her to Acrone."
"Yes, master."
Adonis grabbed her hair tightly and dragged her into the middle of the teleportation magic circle. The prince and the tried male lead were screaming but Viktor ignored their existence because of excitement. He was holding his patience to perform a dark ritual on the top of some mountain far away from the Vestrain kingdom.
They vanished from the cell in a second and the charm spell got cut off. The rage inside both of them vanished in a second and they looked at each other. They were confused and also scared to death. So they both left the dungeon quietly and left to take some rest.
Somewhere on an island thousands of miles away from Vestrain, Viktor appeared on an empty stage. There was an empty gallery around the stage that looked like architecture from the ancient era. It was made for babilious game where people killed other people for fun and won prizes. A manslaughtering house.
On that dark playground, Elena was trying to run away but Adonis had no intention to let her go. So, she had nothing to do but apply charm magic on him. Instead, she was charmed by his beauty when she looked at him.
"Darling, you smell so bad that my stomach is rumbling inside. But master\'s orders are absolute."
"Please, let me go. I promise that I will never bother anyone. Please."
But he kept his position and enjoyed his master\'s work from the side of that empty stadium.
Viktor took out a sword from his dimensional pocket and drew a big and very difficult magic circle to perform a ritual. It was a summoning ritual.
"Adonis, bring that rat here."
"Yes, master."
"Noo!! Let me go!! God!! If you\'re there! Help me!! Help me kill them! Bestow the power of the holy demon on my soul! I am willing to sacrifice my body for you! Grant my wishes!!"
But nothing happened. Instead, she heard the laughter of Viktor who was standing in the middle of the circle. His face was filled with evil intentions and yet he looked so charming.
"Good work Adonis. Now, break both of her knees."
"Yes, master."
Crack…
Elena looked down and saw her misplaced legs facing the opposite direction. The process happened so quickly that she didn\'t get to keep up with the situation. She was in a daze.
"Ah..ahh..Aaaahhhhh!!!!!!! What have you done!!!! Aaaaahhh!! They hurt so bad!!! Aaaahhhh!!!!"
But the smile on Viktor\'s face became wider. He was too excited and he wanted to perform his ritual without any problem. So he ordered Adonis to break her knees so that she can\'t walk or even move away from the circle.
"Let\'s go. I need to activate the circle now."
Adonis followed Viktor out of the magic circle by leaving Elena behind and Viktor activated the circle by some drop of her blood.
"Adonis, cover your mana and the small amount of guardian fragment deep inside your soul. You can never let it out until I say. And maintain your position. Don\'t get scared."
"Yes, master."
The circle started to emit light and a huge dark cloud appeared on the stadium. The wind became rough.
"Master, what is happening?"
"A guardian is going to appear in no time. It\'s a summoning ritual."
The dark cloud above the stadium started to take its shape and a huge wing became visible. Then its enormous tail and finally the pointy horn on its head. It was a demon with 20 eyes on its face. A disturbing facial structure with soul-gazing eyes.
"Who dares to summon me… Who dares to summon me!!!!"
The ground started to shake from his scream, but both Viktor and Adonis were standing as usual. But Elena fainted due to the pressure of the dark aura. Even though she is a contracted soul with that guardian, she never saw or felt its real pressure.
"You, isn\'t this my human contractor? Did you use her to summon me? Human, you are really intelligent."
"I appreciate your compliment. But tell me. Why did you sign a contract with her?"
"Hm? Why? Because a pure soul asked for my power. That\'s why."
Viktor smiled a little and said, "Then take a look at her now. Do you think she\'s a pure soul now?"
The demon guardian looked below and saw a small ball of dark and nasty rag lying under. So, he became more excited and said, "How wonderful!! Human! Her contract expired 5 years ago, but she still held to her powers in exchange for her life span! Look how corrupted she is!"
"Then, I offer her soul to you. How about that?"
Viktor made a lightning spear in a second and threw it on his chest before the heaven guardian cracked the dimension and grabbed the demon. He was shocked.
In that second, he already took the demon guardian\'s crest and hid it inside his guardian vault.
"Sinner! I finally caught you!"
Viktor was gazing at the enormous hands of a heaven\'s guardian that came out of a dimension crack. It was made of light and filled with pure holy aura. The demon guardian was caught and the judgment magic quickly made his body shatter into bits. He felt betrayed.
Adonis on the other hand fainted due to the effect of extreme holy magic. He was lying beside Viktor by holding onto his pants.
But Viktor was speechless to see how big and powerful a heaven guardian could be. He was frustrated.
