Chapter 1002: They are coming
Once Terra, Dimitri and Theseus reached the front door, they saw an enmasse of crazy lycanthropes who went berserk and killed the unprepared vampires and spell- casters by a surprise attack.
"What!?" Terra screamed angrily. "Shift and kill them all!" The young girl glared at Theseus and ordered the dragon lord, not giving any face to him for the fact that he was older and was at a higher status compared to her.
That slightly hurt the fire dragon shifter's pride, but it was not the time for that.
He was about to shift into his beast when Sybil appeared before their eyes out of thin air and before Dimitri could attack her, the witch had raised her hand and sent the vampire flying across the room, making his head knock against the solid wall hard.
The witch's white hair fluttered by the wind and the power that she held when she raised the dragon lord with one hand was fear striking to her opponents, the same thing that Theseus had done to Purple when he injured her to her death.
Theseus's body was trembling when he forced himself to shift, but Sybil suppressed his attempts. The air around them became very thick and heavy as the two creatures tried to overpower one another.
Seeing the situation was not in their favor, Terra looked around to find something to kill Sybil, her eyes wildly skimmed the corridor until she caught sight of a sword that was hung on the wall, placed as a decoration on it.
Without a second thought, the young girl, ran across the corridor, avoiding the vampires that were still fighting the lycanthropes and dodged some spell that was thrown by the spell- casters that came with Sybil.
Terra managed to grab the sword and was about to run back to kill the witch, or at least to distract her, so she would let go of Theseus's neck, as the dragon lord was their only chance to survive this ambush, but before she could take a step forward, Calleb had blocked her.
"What do you want?" Terra asked the lycan defiantly. "You can't shift into your beast."
Upon hearing that a wry laugh could be heard from Calleb, but his eyes were devoid of any emotion. "Do you think I need my beast to kill you? A mere human?" he said mockingly.
For some unknown reason, to be told off as a mere human managed to upset Terra. She didn't like it when someone said that she was only a human. That was an insult and she couldn't really take it well.
Terra drew the sword from its scabbard and unsheathed the sword in one swift motion before pointing its sharp tip at Calleb. However, the Beta was quicker than her, though he couldn't use his beast to fight those vampires like the others did now, but he didn't need to break a sweat against a mere human child. He was a trained warrior after all.
Swiftly, Calleb grabbed Terra's wrist that rendered her unable to swing the sword, and then strangled her neck.
"You will not kill a girl, a young girl, will you?" Terra smirked, normal people would take killing a young girl like her as an cowardly act, thus she used it to make the Beta hesitate.
Yet, what she thought didn't happen, she missed the fact that Calleb didn't see her as a young girl, but an underling of the devil.
Therefore, the smirk on Terra's lips didn't last for long before Calleb tightened his grip and crushed the bones in her neck and let her body fell to the ground limply.
Terra had not yet died, but Calleb had broken her windpipe and now she couldn't even breathe, this was worse than being killed directly.
Calleb left her like that to suffer before she died.
"Young girl?" Calleb sneered. "I don't think I can see any young girl here." After saying that he walked away, not even bothering to check whether she had died or not, because he knew she wouldn't make it long and no one would come for her aid.
However, before Calleb walked any further, he stopped in his tracks and walked back to take the sword without even sparing the young girl a glance.
Calleb walked toward Sybil, who was still fighting against Theseus while suppressing him from shifting.
"Let him go," Calleb said lightly, the battle behind Sybil had been won by the lycanthropes' side, as they easily crushed the vampires.
Some of the vampires tried to escape the scene, but the ones that were left behind had been killed without mercy or were trying to keep up with the fight.
Meanwhile, most of the spell- casters had teleported themselves once they knew there was no chance for them. They would hide forever after this if the lycanthropes' side won the war against the devils, as they had been proved as traitors.
It just took merely a few minutes before the entire situation went out of their control.
"Now," Calleb raised the sword and Sybil let go of Theseus's neck.
Calleb swung the sword in his hands. And, even before Theseus's feet could touch the ground, the dragon lord lost his head.

"They are coming…" Lilac said, her voice laced with worry and her face contorted in anxiety. She was crouching down and felt the vibration from the ground.
"What is it?" Jedrek knelt down beside her, while the phoenix and the firebird flew above their heads low.
Lilac licked her dry lips anxiously and then answered him. "The dead warriors… the creatures from hell… the dragon beasts and the devils… all of them."
Jedrek's eyes turned red when he heard that and so did the two youngerDonovans', who were standing beside him.
"So, this is the time?" Jedrek helped Lilac to stand up, he wiped the dirt from her hands and stared at the wall of fire in front of them.
"How long can you keep the fire burning?" Lilac knew that the flames were a doing of the firebird, but at a price of using a lot of power from Jedrek, this was not a good sign for him.
"One or two hours more," Jedrek said grimly.
Lilac entwined her fingers with him, they knew what was coming at them.
