The Devil's Betrothed-Chapter 775: Plan Against The Gods

"Mother," Drayce called out.

Evanthe got back to her senses and looked at him, the guilt appearing in her eyes. "Dray, Seren...I couldn’t stop them..."

"I know, Mother. But are you alright?" Drayce asked her, keeping his worry about his wife aside.

She nodded and said in a panic. "We have to do something. They are powerful...."

"Evanthe, calm down," Draven said, "We all have to find a way, and for that we need you."

She looked at Draven, offering him a helpless gaze.

Draven had never seen such helplessness in her eyes even when they had fought numerous battles together, even when they had met dead ends and suffered the worst. This look in her eyes worried him now.

"Evanthe..."

"Morph, Aureus, others..." she asked, her expressions worried. So many of them were injured while fighting against the angels.

"Everyone is alright. They are recovering," Draven assured.

Evanthe let out a sigh of relief and got out of the bed.

"Where are you going?" Draven asked, knowing well what his friend might do at this moment.

"I need some time alone. You people take care here," she said and disappeared from her place.

"Mother," Drayce called but she was gone already.

Arlan put hand on his shoulder, "I am sure she needs some time to think over. She must feel guilty for not being able to protect Seren and Ember. Give her some time and till then we can plan on what to do."

Drayce hummed while Oriana spoke, "They must have taken Ember and Seren to heaven realm. We can go there with the help of Snowflake."

As Oriana said it, everyone realised they still have a way.

"We have to plan before going there. We are not familiar with that realm and everyone there seems to be more powerful than us," Arlan commented. "We have already faced in the demon realm that how powerless we could be in front of other worldly beings."

The two Dragon’s agreed to it, as memories of facing Tharzimon were still fresh in their minds. They couldn’t afford to make any mistake when deities are much more powerful than Tharzimon.

At the same time Draven said, "The time in the heaven realm runs slower than here in the mortal world. Moreover, I know they can’t harm Ember as she is not meant to perish unless she fulfils what she is reborn for. Seren has hellfire inside her, which already makes her invincible and immune to any attacks. We don’t have to be in a hurry and be reckless. We need to gather more power with us, as well as need to find someone who can be our help in the heaven realm. We can’t step in there blindly."

Drayce agreed to it as well. "Mother used to be a deity of water. I am sure someone still exists there who is willing to help her."

As the other two agreed, Arlan spoke again, "Dray, how about your biological father? He is said to be the most powerful in all three realms."

"I don’t know where he is or how to call for him," Drayce replied, "But, I will leave it to my mother. She knows it better when to ask for help. I am sure she won’t hesitate if there is a need."

The others agreed.

Draven turned to Cornelia, "Take care of everyone. Let me know once Morph is awake."

The three Dragons and Oriana left the witch clan.

Evanthe appeared somewhere far from the base of the mountain and stood by the vast river. She remembered about the attack. How powerful those angles were and how helpless she was in front of them even when they were taking Seren and Ember away.

"Evanthe trust your powers...You have to trust yourself..." Sierra’s voice brought her back to her senses. ’I need to try what she said.’

Despite still being a little weak, Evanthe prepared herself to focus on her inner core. ’If I am truly from the Heaven realm, then my powers must be stronger that I can tap on. I need to unlock them.’

She gazed at the river bed, ready to use her power to their full extent. Her eyes turned the shade of green, as she raised her both hands up, the magic sipping out from the tips of her fingers. The water bed ahead started to stir and soon formed into a huge stormy and threatening whirlpool, starting to show the extent of her powers, but there was something which was blocking her from reaching it.

She tried again and again but she couldn’t break what was stopping her to tap on her true power. She at least realised Sierra’s words were true that she was yet not aware of her true powers.

She continued to try again and again till exhausted herself entirely. Her face turned pale and her trembling body was drenched in sweat. She knelt on the ground, her eyes moist. She looked at her shaking hands.

’Why can’t I break it?’

Meanwhile, the three Dragon’s were discussing what to do and getting the updates of the attack from Logan to get to know the extent of the enemy’s powers. They also had elders of other clans to share their knowledge about the Heaven realm which they must have read in the ancient books.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of Heaven is the most powerful being in heaven and then there is a King. It’s said that the heavenly emperor had given all the authority to the king and had isolated himself from the matters of all three realms. So everything that is carried out is under the instructions from the King," One of the elders explained.

"Other than the king, other deities are equally powerful. Even the low rank angel there as powerful as the top tier supernatural in the mortal world.

"According to the ancient books, the beings from the Haven realm are not allowed to harm the mortals or meddle in the matters of mortal worlds. If anyone breaks the rule, then the deity or an angel is punished according to the heavenly rules.

"When they attacked Agartha, they didn’t break any rule as we are not humans but supernatural. Also they made sure to act in their own defence and didn’t cause any casualties or made anyone lose their life. Or with the power they possess, they could have destroyed this entire kingdom."

"Your Majesty, we can’t truly win against them."

The discussion continued for long and all the elders were excused to return to their clans.
