Chapter 763 - A Repetition Of The Past
After giving her command to Shiba and Riyu, Mheera also contacted Shino and Calec, telling them to make a preparation in the mountain peak of Mt. Satari.
It was the nearest mountain in the City of Empire. They had to bring the demon god there, away from the people so that innocent citizens would not be involved in the fight.
Besides, they were not that worried since they confirmed that Zu Wan had no magical power as of now. He could only do teleportation which was also at their advantage since they needed to lure him to the mountain peak.
Mheera would let her comrades do the rest. She believed that they could eliminate the demon god without her. She had to stay by Liam's side so that he would not suspect her.
If the demon god died then Liam couldn't blame Mheera since she was with him the whole day.
She knew that Liam would also be against this strategy of using Ella and Titania to lure Zu Wan. She was careful not to get caught by their guardian leader.
Liam could also be frightening once he got mad. That's what Mheera was trying to avoid. Offending him would be a fatal mistake that could affect all their plans.
She needed to be extra careful because Liam was smart and he might sense her strange behavior.
Without delaying more time, she went back to Leo's Villa, waiting for Liam. Though she was upset with him, she needed to pretend that everything was fine.
Mheera kept pacing back and forth across her room. She was hoping that her team would succeed in eliminating the demon god.
Twenty minutes later, Liam arrived at the villa. He immediately proceeded to his room since he was not feeling good after saying goodbye to Zhen-Zhen.
To let Liam know of her presence, Mheera came out of her room to greet Liam. She already felt his presence in the house.
"Liam…" Mheera was having a hard time facing him. She was looking at him as if she had something to ask him. But Mheera remained silent. She could only raise her questions in her mind.
'How can you do this to us? You are our guardian leader. Why are you protecting our enemies? Are you really in love with the demoness?! Why? Why her? Not me?'
"Yes, Mheera? Is there something you wanna ask from me?"
Liam sounded gloomy. He was not in a mood to entertain someone. He just wanted to lock himself in his room.
Mheera's heart constricted upon seeing Liam's sad expression. She couldn't bear to look at him especially now that she knew who was the reason for that sadness.
"I just wonder if you want to watch a movie with me? Leo called it… movie marathon..."
Liam didn't respond right away. He just looked at her, contemplating whether to agree or not.
In the end, Liam nodded his head in agreement since he had to divert his attention.
Liam and Mheera proceeded to the living room where the large flat-screen TV was located. Mheera sat down while Liam chose the set of movies he thought Mheera would enjoy.
Meanwhile, Shiba and Riyu were already on the move. Shiba was following Titania in the Heavenly Star Enterprise while Riyu came to the school where Ella was.
She walked around the playground of the school. She could see that the children were still having class inside the classroom.
Riyu waited patiently until Ella's class ended. She felt relieved when she heard the ringing of the school bell indicating that it was already snack time for the children.
Ella and her classmates excitedly came out of their classroom. Riyu stood up from where she was seated. She walked over to approach Ella who was going to a shaded bench.
She would eat her snack there which was home-cooked by Titania. She was surprised to see a familiar face. Riyu waved at her.
Ella also waved back while smiling at her. Seeing the friendly and adorable smile of Ella, Riyu suddenly felt a pang of guilt deep inside her heart.
"I'm sorry, kid. I have to do this… to make the world a safer place for us."
After gathering her thoughts, Riyu took a deep breath, getting ready to abduct the child without getting noticed by other people.
"Aunt Riyu, why are you here?" Ella asked her innocently.
Riyu smiled at her tenderly as if she had no ill-motive upon approaching her.
"Ella, you should come with me. Something happened to your mother!" she lied without batting an eyelid.
Ella, on the other hand, gazed at her with shock and disbelief. It did not take long when Ella had spoken.
"Aunt Riyu… why are you lying? I don't believe you," Ella declared with her firm voice.
Riyu was surprised. She didn't expect that Ella would see through her lie. Now she had no choice but to force her to come.
Riyu looked around. When she made sure that no one was looking at them, she immediately grabbed Ella, covering her mouth as she inhaled the sleeping spell.
A few seconds later, Ella fell unconscious in her arms. Riyu moved swiftly, leaving the place. She found a spot where she could cast the dimension-hopping spell. She teleported to Mt. Satari together with the unconscious Ella.
On the other hand, Shiba was also in the process of abducting Titania. It was also Titania's break time when she left the office. She was working as secretary of the Operations Director of Heavenly Star.
Shiba approached her in the lobby, using the same strategy Riyu used to Ella.
"Titania!"
"Mr. Shiba, you are here…" Titania didn't expect to see him. "Are you also working here?"
Shiba shook his head. "Titania, Ella is in danger. Something happened to her. You should come with me."
"Huh? What happened to my daughter?" Titania's heart was filled with worries and concern.
"It just so happened that our daughter is also attending the same school. Riyu told me that she suddenly fainted while playing. They are now on the way to the hospital."
Unlike Ella, Titania didn't suspect anything as she willingly came with Shiba.
When Riyu and Shiba both secured Ella and Titania, bringing them to Mt. Satari, they quickly sent a secret message to Mheera for an update.
Upon arriving at Mt. Satari, they met Shino and Calec who were already preparing a spell trap against the demon god. This was an immobilizing spell, similar to the spell cast by Liam before. But Liam's spell was way higher and powerful than this spell because he was the strongest.
Now, all they needed to do was to lure Zu Wan out. He should come here on his own accord. To do that, they should send a message informing Zu Wan that Titania and Ella were held captive.
What they were doing right now was similar to what their ancestors did to Zu Wan a hundred years ago. They threatened him using his wife and daughter, Zhen-Zhen.
They didn't realize the consequences of their actions. For them, this was a great strategy to defeat Zu Wan. But little did they know, this might end with a different outcome. No one knew as of now. They were taking a big risk here, something they were not aware of.
The group discussed who would send a message to the demon god. After a while, the team agreed that Riyu would be the one doing it.
Zu Wan, who was still clueless that Ella and Titania had been taken, was leisurely sitting in the living room. Tristan and Zu Wan just finished talking and Tristan already left the condo going back to the Heavenly Star Building.
It did not take long when he heard a faint sound outside the main door. Zu Wan frowned as he sensed a magical force. His super senses came back!
With deep curiosity, Zu Wan stood up, tracing his steps toward the main door. He cautiously opened the door, only to be greeted by a magical bird with a scroll attached to its leg.
Zu Wan's frown deepened upon seeing the small unexpected visitor. He picked up the scroll and read the content of the message.
Seconds later, Zu Wan crumpled the scroll in his hands, his eyes set ablaze. He was damn furious!
Someone dared to use Ella and Titania, threatening him. The note was demanding him to show up at the peak of Mt. Satari. There was a warning telling him to come alone if he wanted the mother and daughter duo to be alive.
This was their strategy so that the demon god's daughter would not come with him. It would be a different story fighting both the demon god and his daughter.
But of course, Zu Wan would not involve Zhen-Zhen here even if they didn't ask him to. She was pregnant and her safety was his main priority.
Without thinking twice, Zu Wan teleported to Mt.. Satari to rescue Ella and Titania.
