Chapter 683: Too late

Chapter 680: Too late

When the marauding demons reached them and crushed against it, that seemingly light shield managed to stop their momentum. It was successful! The barrier was working. The next second, a powerful twin force of merging wind and fire, that belonged to Alexander, hit into the back of the group of demons that were pushing against Lilith's light shield and were mercilessly burned and blew the demons apart. Suddenly seeing that change in tides gave a little more cheer in their little hearts as there seemed to be some hope and light at the end of this very dark tunnel which had appeared to have been set in stone.

The few demons who were at the periphery that were blown further away by the blast managed to land on the ground, lightly singed by Alex's fire storm, now were in a feverish exchange against Lucas and Kyle who were expecting them on the ground.

The fierce terrain battle started. Lilith, who was stationed nearby, watched over the two vampire's back as they fought fiercely against the demons, ready to come to their aid whenever necessary. She also did not let up being attentive to the situation surrounding them in the case that other unexpected attacks come their way. The trio's cooperation in battle were unexpectedly incredible even though this was the first time they were fighting together.

With the demons now scattered from the combined defence and attack of Lilith and Alex respectively, and them also aiming not only on Zeke and Alex anymore, that balance which was barely maintained earlier was slowly crumbling down.

When Alex's came to aid his comrades on the ground, the other demons which he was restraining saw that as opening and they did not waste another moment to escape from the city.

When he saw what was happening, Alex had to immediately catapult to the sky again and rushed after the escaping demons. The battle on the ground was fierce and despite Kyle and Lucas fighting with all their might, the fact was that with just their strength, they could not kill those demons which they were entangled with. And this just puts them in the hopelessly losing side by default. All they could do at that moment was to put up a strong defence as a good offence. It did not help that they had been fighting all these while with the rouge vampires that were trying to escape the bridge and had used up quite a fair bit of their stamina and strength.

But the spell that Lilith had cast was somehow working on those demons. Though she could not kill them, she could paralyze them for a while and even put them into a frenzy. She was proving to be a huge help and a valuable ally to the vampires in this fight. But even they knew that her power was not infinite nor was it inexhaustible. Not to mention that she was still so new in using the newfound powers of the witch queen that she had.

At some point, Lilith's barrier which was slowly being eroded was finally pierced by a powerful demon who had come spiralling down from the sky, catching Lilith off guard. The demon's deadly hand was outstretched and about to crush Lilith's face when the demon's arm was suddenly slashed and being cut into to two.

The next thing Lilith knew, she was pushed onto the ground with Kyle lying over her, trying to use his own body as a protective covering for her.

Lilith had her eyes wide because she could see more demons already flying in the air and about to crush into them and could barely wait to tear them all apart. It would be too late for them to even do anything to escape this attack. She could only close her eyes as she held onto Kyle tighter.

But the pain she was expecting, and the slaughter that she had thought was going to happen never did come. When she peeked with one eye opened, a dark swath of smoke welcomed her. Those attacking demons that were out for their blood had been annihilated in just a blink of an eye.

Zeke stood there, oozing with nothing but darkness as he glanced back at Kyle and Lilith. His gaze so cold and dark it was enough to freeze the youngsters in fear. And then he was gone.

He stilled in the air right across Zeres. Zeke had been wounded. A while ago, he was about to break free from the wall of demons blocking Zeres when he saw Kyle about to be killed while protecting the little witch Lilith.

He had immediately turned his back to Zeres and that was when one of the stronger demons found an opening in his defence and his arm pierced through Zeke's abdomen.

With his gaze now balefully fixed onto Zeres, Zeke licked the blood dripping from his lips.

Then the dark smoke swirled gently around him as though it had its own mind and purpose. After the dark smoke almost surround him not unlike an armour, Zeke attacked again like a lightning appearing out of nowhere. But this time, he did not attack the wall of demons directly but flew above them and the demons were forced to follow him.

Zeke slashed his sword out and turned the first demon who reached him into black dust. And the moment all the demons came at him, Zeke backed off slightly again before twirling around as if making the motion to throw a discus.

With an incredible power, Zeke suddenly released his sword.

Zeres' eyes widened and he snapped his fingers to have the demons block him from the lightning-like sword coming at him.

But it was a split second too late.

The world seemed to screech into a halt as the sword reached Zeres when out of the Alicia materialized right before Zeres and the sword thudded into her.
