Chapter 435 Chapter 435 Nora\'s Wound
He took his steps towards him further, but halted when he noticed the undead\'s gaze fixed on Tiffany and Reaves. He realized he had lost his best friend the day he died. This body was just a puppet for someone to use.
Tom was heartbroken by the fact but seeing his best friend back made him feel guilty for not saving him on time. His heart shattered to see that this undead was no longer his friend but an enemy, a threat to the people of the Claska town. One day, he had to kill him to bring justice to his best friend.
The enemy was glaring at Tiffany, watching her persistently for a brief time. He noticed others joining the battle to protect the girl he came to kill. He kept clenching and unclenching his fists in frustration because his mission failed.
His gaze met with other warriors around the girl. Gritting his teeth in defeat as he had lost his chance to kill, The undead left the battlefield and fled away before the other warriors attacked him or pin him down. Even before leaving, he glanced at her and fled the area with super speed.
Crystal got furious at him for fleeing away after giving all of them a hard time battling against him and now as a coward, he was running away.
Luckily, Tiffany was safe but Nora had been fatally injured by this enemy. She couldn\'t bear the thought of him running away as if none of this mattered to him.
Crystal narrowed her gaze at him and jumped in?the air to follow him behind. She did not want the enemy to flee as he would roam freely after the battle and Tiffany would be in danger until he would get caught.
But why waste time and wait for him to return. Maybe he would bring other enemies along with him. What could be his motive? Unknown of these thoughts, Crystal was concerned for Tiffany\'s safety. So, she tried to follow him to catch him for integration.
However, the moment she jumped in the air, Reaves noticed her and understood what Crystal was doing. Immediately, he stepped in front of Crystal, stopping her persuading the enemy. Crystal glared at Reaves for blocking her away but now the enemy had gone way too far and disappeared from her sight, she wouldn\'t make it in time.
"Chief! Why did you stop me from following him? That man almost killed your daughter. You let him go. Why?" Crystal was distressed and bombarded Reaves with her queries.
Reaves understood Crystal\'s frustration but remained silent until he opened his mouth to speak. "What are you thinking? I let him go? I saved you, Crystal."
"What? You say you saved me, how? Enlighten me, please." Crystal shrugged her shoulders and looked at Reaves with an intensified gaze.
"I know what you are thinking but calm down and think what you were doing was dangerous." Reaves stated.
"Aren\'t we all risking our lives to kill him? That was dangerous too." Crystal snapped at Reaves for stopping her.
"Yes, it was dangerous but you are not getting what I am trying to say here. Look, he was an undead. No matter how long you will fight him, destroy him, you cannot kill him because he is already dead. His body is being used as a medium to kill my daughter. We don\'t know exactly how many of them are present or was he alone? Running behind him was risky and I stopped you because we don\'t know if it was a trap? You noticed he halted and watched all of us for a brief moment.
He was powerless in front of us, that\'s why he left the ground and ran away. You have exhausted yourself and soon your power will be depleted. If you had followed him and it happened that time, how would you fight him?" Reaves\' words made sense.
Crystal realized she was acting on impulse that could have cost her life. Reaves was right, the enemy was undead and what was his motive to kill Tiffany.
"Actually, you are right. I didn\'t give much thought on this perspective. I am sorry for my behavior." Crystal apologized to him.
"It\'s fine. I know you wanted to protect Tiffany. We can deal with that enemy later. Right now, someone else needs medical attention." Reaves stated while pointing at Nora\'s body lying unconscious on the ground. Crystal\'s gaze fell on her and she nodded her in agreement.
Reaves looked at her daughter after the battle and he gave him a bear hug, making sure she would calm down after witnessing such a horrendous battle which would traumatize her.
The best thing was, Tiffany was alive and Nora had her vitals running, which means she was alive too. Crystal observed the bond between father and daughter, and she was touched by it.
"I think you should leave and return to your place, Tiffany. There is no time left for interrogation. I will visit you some other day to ask the details of this attack. Your health is your first priority. Take rest, as much as you can because this night will haunt you for days." Crystal spoke to Tiffany.
"Please, take care of Nora. Let us know if we can help." Tiffany showed regards for Nora.
"I will take her to the healer and I suggest you do the same. Those black blades were made of dark black mana and it will not be good for your body. In case any of the mana enters your body, the healers will suck them out." Crystal showed her concern to Tiffany and they bid adieu before praying ways back to their respective destination.
They picked Nora quickly and Crystal carried her body back to Russell\'s fort. Her vitals were getting low and she had to be fast before she lost Nora in her arms.
Upon arriving at Russell\'s fort, Crystal did not waste any second to call the people around her but she directly took Nora into the medical wing to get her wound treated.
She laid her in the bed and soon the healers came rushing into the medical room after hearing the news of the attack on Nora.
Madeline, Monica and Nexus rushed to the medical wing after hearing the news. They were all shocked to see Nora in such a devastating state.
"My child! My child!!" Madeline was crying to see her beloved daughter laying in the bed, all bloody and unconscious.
"Calm down, Mother! I know Nora is a survivor! She will make it through." Monica calmed her mother down. Nexus was silent and observed Nora\'s wound carefully.
"Madam Russell and others, we want you to wait outside. Let us treat the patient." The healers requested the family to leave the medical wing and wait outside the operating room. They nodded and left. Soon, the healers started to treat Nora\'s wound.
