BXBX NOVEL Chapter 154 Elke's Death?
The moment Elise\'s sword went through Elke\'s body, Lothur saw it all from the left side while feeling a pain in his own heart.
"ELKE!" He shouted in desperation, seeing the evil smile on Elise\'s face and the terrified look on his girl\'s face.
"This is what happens when you associate with vermin..." Elise momentarily held her sword through Elke\'s body. "You end up being eliminated along with them!"
After saying her words, Elise drew back her sword, knocking Elke\'s body off balance as blood began to stain the young redhead\'s white clothes.
At the same time, a handful of blood began to drip from Elke\'s mouth as she fell backward onto the ground, gradually losing the light in her eyes, feeling an unparalleled cold.
\'Lothur? Where are you?\' She asked herself in her mind, terrified like never before in her life.
At that moment, before she fell to the ground, Lothur appeared behind her and caught her in his arms, seeing his girl losing her life.
"Elke?" He said in a sorrowful tone, with the worst feeling of all arising in his being, as his heart jumped desperately in his chest. "Elke!"
But as he called out to her, his girl did not answer him once, while her vital signs began to decrease at an alarming rate, driving this young man mad.
"No! That can\'t be happening!" He shouted with all his might, ignoring Elise, who was watching this in delight.
"You deserve it, scumbag!"
While ignoring Elise\'s voice, Lothur despaired. \'No, I can\'t lose her!\'
\'Our story is just beginning!\' He shouted in his mind, remembering what had happened that morning. \'I could not even say I love her! No!\'
Tears dripped from Lothur\'s eyes, and he lost all the strength of his being as he desperately screamed.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Lub dub!
Suddenly, Lothur\'s heart beats in a different rhythm, and the tears coming out of his eyes became dark red as he screamed non-stop.
His silver pupils then turned completely red, with a strange pattern forming around his eyes, following the same color as the blood flowing from those two places.
This pattern grew until a pentagram appeared in the middle of his forehead, beginning to rotate counterclockwise.
[Requisite achieved, awakening bloodline...]
A warning from the system appeared in front of Lothur, as he felt anger and hatred growing in his heart while still holding Elke\'s body.
But then, he finally took his eyes off his girl and looked at Elise, shaking uncontrollably while still bawling in despair.
As he did so, he let Elke\'s body rest on his chest and unconsciously \'grabbed\' the air with his two hands, as if he was trying to scratch something.
As he did so, reddish energy, similar to a fine mist, began to leave Lothur\'s fingers, spreading to the surroundings.
[Life Devourer awakened!]
Seeing that, Elise felt a negative feeling in her heart, as if she had just run into her nemesis.
Gulp!
\'What\'s that?\' She looked cautiously at Lothur and tried to take a few steps back.
Unfortunately for her, her body seemed weak at the moment, and before she could react, the red mist reached her.
When Elise felt the contact of her skin with that thing, she uncontrollably convulsed, feeling as if a parasite had begun to devour her vitality.
\'What? How, that... It... Is it consuming my vitality?\' She could barely think about it as non-vital parts of her body began to wither away at a rate visible to the naked eye.
But things did not stop there. As Elise felt her energy disappearing and began to bawl even more than Lothur, her level began to drop, going from 5th Transformation to 1st in just 20 seconds.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
p
However, amid this moment that he did not understand what was happening, he unconsciously moved one of his hands to hold Elke\'s body so it would not fall.
He touched right on top of her left breast, feeling her blood and wound with one of his fingers.
"Elke..." Feeling that, Lothur\'s hatred subsided, giving way to profound sadness in his being that made him fall to his knees on the ground.
"ELLLLLKKE!" He squeezed her in his arms as Elise\'s already dead body slumped to the ground, so dry that she barely looked like anything more than a skeleton.
As Lothur did this, the previous fog slowly returned to his hands, and the pattern around his eyes and forehead disappeared.
His pupils returned to their original color, and the blood in his eyes dried up, leaving only marks on his face amid the tears that still flowed from there.
"Elke..." He could barely say her name right, feeling the mucus in his mouth hindering his speech amidst his sobs of sadness.
"Elke, forgive me..." He then spent the next 15 minutes copiously crying, holding his girl\'s body in his arms, not knowing what to do in this situation.
Now that everything had happened, Lothur felt that he loved the girl in his arms, that his happiness with her could not be replaced by anything in the world. Because of this, he felt so much pain as if the blow received by Elke had hit him too, destroying his little heart.
"Elke... I wasn\'t enough for you. I couldn\'t protect you!"
"Elke, I love you too, Elke!" He kissed her blood-smeared lips, taking his right hand off her left breast to hold her delicate little face. "If there is a second chance, I will give everything to you and make you happy!"
When he made this move, Lothur did not see that the cut at the height of her heart was no longer there, suddenly surprised by Elke\'s lips\' movement.
As he felt a tongue invading his lips, Lothur opened his eyes and moved a little away from Elke, apprehensively looking at her.
"Cough! Cough!" She slowly opened her eyes and coughed twice, drawing out the rest of the blood in her throat.
"Elke?" A smile appeared on Lothur\'s sorrowful and desolate face, with a bit of hope arising in his heart.
"Elke, forgive me! I have failed you!" He hugged her once more as he again felt the warmth circulating through her body, along with the beating of his girl\'s heart.
"Elke!"
"Lothur..." The young red-haired girl looked into his eyes with affection in hers, feeling the warmth of his body pushing away the previous cold.
Then, she said in a fragile tone, "I hope you don\'t forget your words..."
"Elke..." He looked at her full of passion, feeling a tremendous relief in his being. "Elke, I never thought I would hear your voice again! I\'m glad you\'re all right, dear!"
"Hmm, I did not think I would see you again either, Lothur... You do not know how scared I was." She said amid her feebleness.
But then Elke smiled at him. "But can you say that again? Please..."
"Yes! Yes!"
"Elke, I love you! You will be mine, and I will do everything to make you happy!" He said aloud while his voice was already getting hoarse from his many cries of desperation.
"Perfect!" Elke tried to move but felt too weak to do so. "I love you too, Lothur. Now kiss me, okay?"
"Yes." He said before moving to her cherry lips.
"Mmmmmmm~"
After passionately kissing Elke\'s mouth for almost a full minute, Lothur parted his lips from hers as he remembered that she had been seriously wounded.
His rational side came back into operation at this instant, and he immediately began to check his girl\'s physical condition.
\'The cut on her chest is gone?\' He frowned, not understanding how that had happened.
He then looked at her status to understand if anything relevant had changed.
[Name: Elke Becker]
[Cultivation: level 3 (weakened)]
[STR: 0.17] [CON: 0.42] [DEX: 0.31] [AGI: 0.33]
Upon seeing this, Lothur immediately understood that the fact that Elke had survived was a miracle and that she was in a highly weakened state right now.
She had lost a lot of blood, so when thinking about it, Lothur long understood that it was expected that she would need to go through a gradual recovery to return to normal.
Anyway, Lothur continued to use his basic knowledge to ascertain his girl\'s body, doing so for almost 10 minutes while she laughed, feeling tickles in her body.
"Lothur, what are you doing? You look so worried..." She gently held one of his hands. "Don\'t I already look fine?"
He seriously looked at her and said. "No, you\'re not. But don\'t worry, I will care for you and make you recover!"
"First, drink this potion to get some of your energy back." He brought a glass bottle with a green liquid inside it close to Elke\'s mouth.
"As for the rest, I\'ll see what to do when we return."
