SPELLBOUND-Chapter 228 - On The Other Side

Moments after Evie declared those words, the group then headed towards the city as well.

They quietly arrived at the wall of Kirzan. Since they were trying to infiltrate into the city, they could not just happily waltz through the main gates. Before Zolan set out he had planned the route they were to use to infiltrate into the city. Zolan had actually lived in Kirzam for quite a while, so he had insiders' knowledge on everything in the city. Thankfully, before he and Luc had left, he had mapped his route out and left a copy of it with Samuel.

However, Samuel had decided not to follow the route Zolan had left with them. His reasoning was that perhaps this route must now be the most dangerous one of all and probably, the enemy was already waiting for them there, just looking for the right time to ambush. So, they ended up entering from the opposite side.

Standing before the walls and looking up, Evie's heart was thudding wildly again. She could not explain what she was feeling. Her heart simply shivered so ferociously the closer they get to the walls.

As they stood there and looked up, Evie realized that the wall was not built as high as Dacria's walls. However, it stands to reason as Dacria was actually a fortress. It was just as tall as the walls in human realms. They could not see any guards at the top as well unlike in Dacria where there are always guards on patrol.

"I'll go in first," Samuel said. "I will signal you once I see that it is safe."

Evie nodded and then they watched as the man leapt over the walls and travelled in blur. They saw him land at the top of the wall in a crouching position. He looked back again and gestured for them to wait.

Then he was gone in a flash.

Evie, Zanya, Leon and Elias quietly waited. The time of waiting made Evie even more anxious as time passed by. They felt like time had slowed down and the wait was excruciating.

And when Samuel was still nowhere to be seen after long moments that passed, Evie gritted her teeth, and she clenched her fists. She could not take this anymore. She must know what was going on at the other side of these walls. Her men were not just your everyday average vampires. They were the elites, the best of best. It was very strange that they just disappeared so easily like this!

But before Evie could open her mouth to order Leon and Elias to bring them up on the walls, Leon suddenly leapt before them as though he had heard something across the walls. His eyes had turned vivid red and then after saying "wait here, princess," he too leapt towards the walls.

The moment Leon quietly landed on top of the wall like a cat, his eyes immediately found the source of the sounds. He caught sight of blades clashing. He saw Samuel surrounded, fighting a large number of vampires.

There were dozens of them, and Leon could tell that those vampires were part of the Duke of Kirzan's elite knights, judging from their crests embossed on their clothes.

Samuel ferociously fought the vampires with his incredible strength and skill. He had even used his massive blade swinging at them mercilessly. And it did not even take long before the vampires were all slaughtered around him.

However, even Leon who was watching from afar could not even feel any relief as he saw someone clapping leisurely at Samuel as he came walking out from the shadows.

The next instant, Leon's eyes circled and like a blur he rushed towards where Samuel was.

Below the walls, Evie saw that Leon had disappeared as well.

She whipped her head towards Elias. "What's going on? You can hear what's happening over on the other side, right?" Evie asked.

"There is a fight going on across the wall, Princess." Elias said and Evie's eyes widened. She looked up again and then she began to order Elias.

"Bring me up there, now!" Evie ordered and Elias swallowed. "Obey me, Elias. We don't have time to argue anymore." Evie's eyes suddenly glowed for a moment and before Elias knew it, he nodded.

"Please let me go first, princess." Zanya said. "I'll cover for you from up there. This is just in case someone is aiming arrows at anyone who jumps on the wall."

Evie did not bother to argue anymore and nodded. They could not waste any more time. Elias then helped Zanya climbed the wall and once he put Zanya down, he immediately leapt to where Evie was again. Elias' body was now moving on its own.

He then carried Evie up and, in a flash, they landed right next to Zanya who was now covering for Evie.

As soon as Evie was on her feet, she saw Samuel and Leon. And before them was someone else. Leon and Samuel were seemingly frozen and looked like they could not move.

Seeing that the man before them was holding a sword, Evie swallowed, and she lifted her own bow and knocked an arrow, aiming it at the man for fear that he would strike Leon and Samuel. She could not let that happen!

At that moment, as Evie aimed at the man wearing an obsidian cloak covering his entire body, her heart shuddered strangely. But when she saw the man raising his sword, Evie's fear for her men made her release the arrow. And that very moment, she saw it inside her head. This… oh my god… do not tell me…

It was another déjà vu. And as Evie watched her arrow flew at the man in black cloak, she stopped breathing. Just like what happened in her dream, the man caught her arrow and then a gust of wind blew, throwing back the hood that was covering the man's face.
