Chapter 171: Ruins

Gavriel was enveloped with a combination of something bluish and dark as ink as he stood there. Suffocating and spine chilling bloodlust and danger could be felt coming from him. Even his own men could not help but instinctively halt and brace themselves. The aura that the prince was emitting was something that caused everyone to feel the threat of danger to their very lives. Though they know that their prince would not hurt them indiscriminately, the gut reaction they were having to his aura was just something out of their control. His projected bloodlust was just that menacing and frightening. And for Gavriel's own men who are battle worn to even feel that way, it truly was something beyond the ordinary.

They had seen the prince going into this state before but there was something a little off this time. Something is just rubbing them the wrong way and it was frustrating, but they just could not quite figure out what was that something they were looking for.

The prince was bloodied but he was in a far better condition than the dark fae who had been reduced to a sorry state and currently kneeling on the ground. He was bleeding quite profusely and was battered up by Prince Gavriel so ferociously that he had lost whatever elegance he had left in him. One glance at the dark fae and the men could already tell how merciless their prince had been when he was on the attacking front. They could not quite imagine the heights of savagery achieved by His Highness this time. It was truly unprecedented.

However, the fight between Gavriel and the dark fae did not seem to have ended just yet. Not even close. Because the dark fae was now emitting something from his body which they could already tell was deadly. His serpentine green eyes were fixed on Gavriel as his dark magic lingered around him, as if it were functioning as a shield that was protecting him.

At that moment, debris began to fall. Large and huge chunks of debris were falling all around them, breaking the stalemate. They looked up and saw the dark dragon starting to burn and destroy the castle while the other dragon was trying to stop it. However, it seemed as though the amber-eyed dragon was not doing much in stopping the dark dragon.

Seeing this, Gavriel gritted his teeth and his incandescent eyes turned towards his men.

"LEAVE! HELP THE DRAGON INSTEAD! IT'S TRYING TO DESTROY THE CASTLE TO CUT OFF ALL POSSIBLE ESCAPE!" his orders resounded through their telepathy link and the men immediately moved as their prince had ordered. They knew that rather than trying to stay and help, following his orders would help him focus better on his own battles and free his mind from worrying on the other things which they could take care of. Thus, they would do it perfectly and not fail their prince!

They knew in their hearts they could not help in their fight anyway. But against the dragon, they could try something to stop it from continuing in its rampage!

They immediately headed to the walls and retrieved the surviving arrows the dragon had not managed to burn.

The vampires were quick to move and in no time, they were aiming at the dark dragon which was wreaking havoc above them.

Samuel aimed the large arrow at its eyes while the others aimed at its other crucial spot. And then they simultaneously let go as soon as the amber-eyed dragon fell back due to the dark dragon's incredible attack strength.

The arrows that were fired managed to pierce through it! But due to the dragon's quick evading, it managed to dodge Samuel's arrow, narrowly missing its eye. However, the arrow still managed to pierce through its head instead. Though not as critical a point as the eye, as the head had harder scales for protection – that would have to do for now.

"F*ck! Jump!" Samuel yelled as the dragon had now turned and was shooting flames at them. The vampires spread out. But the dark dragon seemed hellbent in destroying the castle. Could it be that it knew there was a secret passage inside? Zolan wondered. No… it was not the dragon that knew, but it was the dark the fae. He might have deduced that there was a secret passage when Prince Gavriel and the rest of them suddenly appeared inside the castle, bypassing the castle gates. And that was why the dark fae had commanded the dragon to reduce the entire castle into ashes!

"Don't stop shooting! Aim at its eyes. The Princess's dragon is coming again! Prepare to shoot. Shoot the moment the princess' dragon distracts it!" Zolan ordered his comrades. Not even realizing that he had already been freed completely from whatever control of the princess that was holding his body captive.

The men did as Zolan had instructed and the moment the amber eyed dragon crashed itself against the dark dragon, they released the arrows and this time, Samuel ended up hitting pay dirt. Both dragons came crashing to the ground again.

However, what they saw next had everyone's breath catching in their throats. They saw Prince Gavriel and the dark fae fighting ferociously and they had already moved inside the castle's ruins. They could see that the dark fae was trying to head towards the library.

"Damn! He really knew!!!" Zolan cursed and they all headed first ahead of the two ferocious creatures fighting each other to death.

Gavriel was trying to block the dark fae but the dark fae truly was very strong. He was really a tough opponent. He could very well be one of the toughest and cunning opponent Gavriel has ever encountered yet. He was tricking the prince with his dark magic every now and again.

The vampires all arrived at the library first. Its ceiling was already scrapped and though the fire had yet to reach it, the library was now ruined. Books were strewn about, and the tables and chairs were in pieces.

To their relief, Leon was already almost done tending to the princess' wounds, so the scent of her blood was no longer that intense anymore. They could hardly catch any whiff of her scent on the air.

Zolan immediately opened the secret passage as Leon quickly finished wrapping up Evie's wounds.

It was at that moment when something came crashing through the walls.

Everyone was shocked, seeing that it was Gavriel who was thrown hard towards them. The prince immediately rose as they saw the dark fae heading towards them. The dark fae was now unrecognizable. The guardian's body had turned into a greenish dark hue as the dark fae's black magic thickened like a dark and poisonous miasma. Everyone could sense that the dark fae had shown his true power now and it was beyond anything anyone could have ever imagined! Who could defeat this creature now?!
