90 Chapter 91: The Greatest Shaman and The Demon King

It scared the old woman when two burning demons walked into her room and were slowly getting better. Her shield didn’t work. She felt two demons that were stronger than she thought they would be. She saw the burning demon heal the burnt skin. Immediately, it went to her and strangled her.

“Who are you to hurt or kill my queen?” Reed asked the old woman in a furious tone.

The woman grabbed Reed’s hand, then threw salt in his face, making him let go. Reed took a few steps back.

“Have mercy on that woman, you demon. Whatever you have planned for her, have mercy,” said the shaman.

Devin helped Emy get to her feet. “You’re OK, huh?”

Devin could see the burns on Emy’s skin.

“You don’t know what’s happening, so don’t get in the way,” Reed said.

Reed raised his hand and let out black smoke, but Emy stopped him from attacking the old shaman before he could.

“Don’t hurt her, Reed, I’m okay...” Emy said.

.....

Reed took a deep breath and turned away from the elderly woman. He put his hand on Emy’s cheek. “Are you okay? Are you hurt?” Reed asked.

When the door suddenly opened, they turned around. Avery’s face showed that Devin and Reed had entered the room when he saw his grandmother holding the dagger she used to kill demons.

“Grandma!” Avery said in shock.

They all looked at the old shaman. Her hand with a dagger in it was raised, and she was about to stab Reed, but Emy saw the familiar dagger and stopped her. Reed was shoved by Emy, which resulted in Emy being stabbed in the back by the dagger.

“Miss Emy!” “Emy!”

Emy frowned, and blood came out of her mouth. She reached for it with her hand. She looked at Avery, Jasmin, Reed, and Devin. Reed lifted his hand and shoved the old shaman, sending her flying so that she landed on top of the saints who were seated at the long table. The saints are all broken.

Reed picked up Emy right away, and they left the room. It surprised people to see a dagger buried in Emy’s back while she was being carried by a man. Reed was with Jasmine and Devin. They left Avery in the room with the old shaman.

Reed sat Emy in the car’s backseat. Devin got in the driver’s seat. Reed sat next to Emy, and Jasmin was next to Devin.

“There is a hospital just 15 minutes away,” Jasmin said.

Their car was about to leave when the old shaman got in the way. They saw Avery run towards her grandmother, but her grandmother stopped her.

“Avery, don’t come any closer...”

“They are my friends, Grandma.”

Avery’s grandmother became the center of attention. Reed was about to get out of the car, but Emy grabbed his hand and she shook her head.

“No, Reed,” she said. Emy said.

“We must take Miss Emy to the hospital...” Jasmin said.

Devin starts the car again, but something keeps them from driving away. The old shaman set up a shield. Reed released Emy’s grip on his hand and got out of the car.

“Let them pass. The woman you stabbed needs to go to the hospital. She could die if you stop us.”

“Grandma, Miss Emy might die... just let them go...” Avery said.

Jasmin got out of the car. “Avery, Ms. Emy...” Jasmin was crying and scared.

“Grandma,” said Avery.

“You’ll be left,” the shaman told Reed.

Reed looked at Devin, who gave him a nod. Devin starts the car, and the shaman lets them pass. Reed let the smoke out of his hand and spread it into the air. After that, everyone fell asleep except for Avery, the shaman, and Reed. Avery turned to the people who were all sleeping. She looked again at her grandmother and then at Reed.

“I already told you to stay away from that woman. Have mercy on her,” the shaman said.

“I’ve told you earlier that you know nothing, so don’t get in the way.”

“I will not let that child die. I will send you back where you came from...”

“Grandma, Sir Reed is my boss, and that woman you stabbed is my manager. What’re you doing?”

“What do you mean, you don’t know? Your boss is a demon? A dangerous demon...”

Avery glanced at Reed. He just stays there and looks at them. “Grandma, Sir Reed is a good person...”

“He is not a person; he is a demon.”

“Avery, that old woman hurt Emmy. Let’s forgive her no matter what she does, even if I get even with her.” Reed said this seriously.

“Grandma,” said Avery.

“I must protect this world from demons like him. I won’t let that woman become obsessed with him. The woman will die. This man is a demon.”

“But he’s not doing anything; they came here to show sympathy for mom. They didn’t know you were a shaman, but you were the one who attacked first...”

“Avery, you’re siding with a demon? I am your grandmother...”

“But the way you’re acting now, grandma, you’re a demon...”

It startled Avery when a powerful slap landed on her cheek. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

“You don’t have any respect,” said the shaman. “Don’t interfere.”

“Grandma!”

The shaman raised the two katanas she held in both hands. Its blades have a spell on them, and Reed can see that they light up. Reed let out black smoke that turned into a sword shape he used with every shaman’s attack. Despite having an old body, it moves quickly. The shaman dodged the two katanas several times and swung them at Reed, but Reed kept dodging them.

He needed to hurry because he didn’t know what happened to Emy. Reed pushed the shaman’s Katana, making it fly away.

“Sir Reed, please don’t hurt my grandma!” Avery stated.

“Tell him that,” he said. ” I need to get to Emy because of what your grandmother did.”

Reed used both hands to help the shaman release the katana. He curled the black smoke and tightened it around her wrist. At that moment, the shaman’s hand felt cold. It is struggling to let out his black smoke. The shaman dropped the two katanas that he was holding. But the shaman said a strange spell that made Reed fall to his knees. She spoke spells that reached his ears. The smoke that was holding the shaman in place moved away. The shaman quickly took the two bodies and kept reciting the spell.

“Ahhhhh!”

Reed struggled to fight against the spells that controlled his power. It H pressed his hand and foot tightly together like he was tied so that he couldn’t let out the smoke. Reed tried to move his hands away until he was completely limp and his eyes changed color. The powerful energy he gave off made the shaman throw himself far away, and he gave it off from the body he was holding.

Avery saw her grandmother jump, and then her Katana went through her grandmother’s chest.

“Grandma!” Avery shouted as he ran toward the old woman.

He sat down and let her grandmother lay on her lap. She cried when she saw how long the katana had been stuck in her grandmother’s chest. Her grandmother touched her cheek and said something that she didn’t expect to hear. Later, he looked up with his mouth open and his eyes big.

Reed struggled to get up after he stopped the shaman from controlling his power. He looked sad when he saw what was happening to Avery. The shaman seems to give his powers to Avery. Reed left, and the two continued doing what they were doing.

“What happens?”

Reed suddenly appeared next to Jasmin and Devin, which surprised Jasmin. The woman clenched her chest. ƒ𝘳𝗲𝑒𝒘𝐞𝚋𝚗𝐨v𝘦l.𝒄o𝐦

“Where is Emy?”

“Inside of the operating room,” Devin said. “I want to help him because I can’t hold the demon’s knife.”

“The emergency surgery doctor said that what will happen is that the dagger in Emy’s back is not in a good spot,” Jasmin said.

“Damn it,” Reed said weakly.

“When the operation goes well, I’ll help Emy’s wound heal,” Devin said.

“What happened, Sir?” Jasmin asked. “It’s good that Avery’s grandma let you through.”

“I think he has died.”

“W-what?” Jasmin asked, shocked.

“It happened accidentally. Whatever happened to her, I told her so.”

“Avery’s mother, she’s in the middle of mourning and another loved one died,” Jasmin said.

“Reed already said what happened was a mistake. And her other grandmother, who was the first, hurt Emy.” Devin said.

Jasmin didn’t talk anymore. What Devin said is true. But knowing that Avery’s grandmother died while her mother was still in the grave was a tragedy for Avery. She pulled out her phone to call Avery, but she didn’t answer about ten of her calls.

When Avery wakes up, she turns over in bed. She frowned when she saw a beautiful woman in her room. She suddenly remembered what had happened.

“Grandmother...”

Avery couldn’t get out of her seat on the bed. It was like she was stuck there. He stared at the woman sitting next to her.

“I am here because I want to talk to you...”

“What are you? What are you doing in the room? Who is my grandma? Where is she?”

The woman looked at him. “It was your grandmother’s mistake to mess up the schedule. I don’t want you to make that mistake again.”

“You mean what?”

.....

“The demon he fought was in a process set for him by the above, but grandma got in the way. If the woman your grandma stabbed doesn’t make it, that demon will surely bring chaos to all of humanity. Emy is the only thing that can make him change. That’s why your grandmother shouldn’t have gotten involved in something she knew nothing about.”

“That demon killed my grandmother,” Avery stated.

“You saw it with your own eyes; you were there watching what was going on. You know what’s true.”

Avery couldn’t say a word. “And as payment for your grandmother’s crime. You will be the demon’s helper in the human world. You can fight him, but can’t kill him.”

“Yet he could kill me...”

“You know the demon you’re talking about, right? Do you think he could kill you for no reason? Why do you think your grandmother died?”

“What are you?”

The woman didn’t answer. Instead, it got too bright and then vanished from her view.
