The Princess And The Lord-Chapter 1091 The Betrayal III

"Don't even think about it!" Cavio shouted loudly and three great swords appeared then rushed towards Lazarus as Cavio lunged forward at high speed.

As he was attacking from every corner Lazarus raised his hands creating a barrier around him to block Cavio's attack while he flew higher into the sky he took a deep inhaled and suddenly dark smoke came from the Byroft carcass then sucked away by Lazarus, he absorbed the ancient monster power to increase his own.

The air around Lazarus turns dark and heavy Arthea could feel the atmosphere around Lazarus significantly change and this is not a good sign, "Lazarus stop!" she tries to stop him.

But how could he stop when envy, jealousy, and rage had blinded all his senses the only thing that mattered to him was to kill anyone who blocked his way to get what he wanted.

"Thea, get away from here!" Cavio voice is tight with panic.

"No, Cavi! Don't go!"Arthea's face turned pale as she watched Cavio rush while aiming his sword at Lazarus. Why does everything become like this? She just wanted to save her brother but why…

Two great powers collided with each other like a comet that collided that sent sparks flying through the sky and spreading a tremor to the ground that can be felt miles away, Arthea could only stand resignedly as she watch anxiously at the two people closest to her fight each other, she didn't know who to side with, one is her only brother while the other one is her best friend to whom she was also greatly indebted, Arthea stood numbly feeling lost and confused what to do.

In a meantime, Lazarus, who was in a frenzy, used his power to attack Cavio repeatedly. As a result, Cavio began to get overwhelmed as his previous injury got worst, yet he refused to give up, especially when Arthea's safety depended on him.

"What should I do for you to let Thea, go? What if I give my life that you save back to you in exchange for you to leave her!" said Cavio while continuing to block Lazarus' attacks.

"I don't need your life," Lazarus said spitefully.

"Then what do you want?" Cavio got impatient.

"Are you deft, I want her, I want Thea...just her" Lazarus firmly said.

"Why?" Cavio confuses.

"I...I love her" Lazarus's voice was mixed of warmth and coldness.

"Well, you have a strange way to show your love, huh!" Cavio throws his sword at Lazarus.

His blunt attack is easily blocked by Lazarus but he doesn't realize another sword appears behind him and thrusts his back.

"Lazarus!" Arthea screamed as she saw Lazarus get hurt then she saw Lazarus's body fall to the ground with a loud thud, but at the same time Cavio who also landed on the ground fell on one knee while weakly leaning on his sword, Arthea paused for a second while contemplating whose have to check first, in the end, because Cavio is only human so she though his body is much weaker than half God like Lazarus, with that conclusion Arthea run to check Cavio's condition first.

Alas, Lazarus who saw Arthea running towards Cavio first inevitably felt neglected, anger immediately throbbing in his veins as he thought she abandoned him.

'Thea, why...why him?' Lazarus eyes dull with disappointment, he couldn't accept that Arthea would choose her brother over him after everything he did for her.

"Cavi, are you okay" Arthea checked Cavio's condition as expected his condition is bad as it gets, Cavio had used up almost all of his mana which was very dangerous for him.

"I'm fine... I'm just tired" Cavio tried to look calm but from his face Arthea could guess how weak he is right now, it was certain Cavio couldn't engage another fight or he would really die this time.

But then she remembered about Lazarus immediately she got worried about him, Arthea immediately raise from the ground while speaking in haste "Wait here, I need to take a look at him..."

Cavio suddenly held her hand "Thea, don't!" Cavi shook his head.

"But... he's my friend" Arthea looked at where Lazarus was with a look of distress. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

Cavio looked at Arthea deeply then speak with a calm measured voice "Your friend is trying to take you by force, he also almost kills me, and you still think he's a friend?" deep wrinkles formed on his brows.

"But...he..." Arthea's voice begin to waver even though her brother was right, she felt it was wrong to leave Lazarus alone like that.

"Cavi, he wasn't always like this, he was just misguided...like a child, you know..." Arthea tries to defend Lazarus.

"Thea..." Cavi sighed resignedly.

"Please, Cavi...I can't leave him...not like this" she pleads.

Cavio know there was no way to talk her way out of here knowing how stubborn she could be still he needed to try unlike his kind sister he knew what kind of man Lazarus truly is, "Thea, sometimes, something is too far gone, you won't be able to reach no matter how hard you try... ."

yet, Arthea remains persistent "Cavi, he..."

"WATCH OUT!" Cavio pulled Arthea into his arms then suddenly there was a loud bang, Arthea screamed in surprise as a strong wind hit him as if it was going to fly her away, thank God she was safe in her brother's arms.

As the wind died down, Arthea raised her head, "What happened?" suddenly blood dripped down her arm, Arthea was stunned for a second before she realized where the blood was coming from, she then looked up in a hurry, she was horrified by the sight of Cavio spurting fresh blood from his mouth then he started to cough violently that his whole body trembles professedly he eventually falling weakly into Arthea's arms.

"Cavi, wake up! Cavi!" Arthea frantically tried to wake him up but Cavio didn't respond, luckily, she could still feel his chest moving up and down which meant he was still breathing.

But Arthea have no time to relax as she realizes she was surrounded by a black thick smoke which was only separated by his brother's barrier to protect them, no wonder Cavio's condition was getting worse, he had used all mana he had to the last drop.

In front of him, Lazarus stood straight with his whole body oozing with black smokes, While Arthea was frozen while hugging Cavio's limp body she stupefied.

"Come with me" he stretched his hand, "You said you will come with me" he insisted.

Arthea didn't moves, her eyes bugged out wondering who is the man before her, why can she recognize him anymore? this is not the same man that used to greet her warmly, is this the same man who always smile childishly at her?

Arthea felt apprehensive then her lips started to tremble as she molded the words she never think she would say to him, "N...No..."

Anger seethed like hot lava searing into his soul, filling his mind with dread and resentment. After everything he did for her, how could she lie to him now, did she think he would let her go so easily, did she think he was like grass that she can walk on and then leave behind?!

He is the most powerful entity that God has created, he was the one who was given the power to guard all the words to maintain their balances in order to stop catastrophes to happen, yet she had the audacity to make a fool of him.

"You betrayed me..." Lazarus hissed.

"No, I…." Arthea swallows her words.

The pain on Lazarus's face was so clear it's like a knife that tore her heart apart, Arthea wanted to say sorry but knew it meant too little. She Honestly didn't mean to hurt him but he realize it meant too little to him. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢

Suddenly a dark giant vortex appeared out of thin air then suddenly large chains flew out from the vortex and quickly wrapped around Lazarus' arms and legs and started pulling him into the vortex.

"Stop!" he roar in anger at the sky, "I know what you're trying to do, it's unfair! I've always been obedient like a dog, I do everything that you wanted, you can't do this to me! GODS!"

Alas, the suction from inside the black hole was getting stronger, it keep mercilessly pulling him in, hence Lazarus fell face down yet he keep struggling with all his might he was finally able to break one of his arms from the chair but that's as far as he could do.

Helpless, Lazarus could only allow himself to be forcibly taken from this world, he knew this was God's restriction and because of this, he wouldn't be able to enter this world ever again not even his soul could visit this world, he will forever ban from this world.

Panic, he stretched his hands "Thea, come with me!" he screams in despair.

Arthea froze as she stared wide-eyed while Lazarus was taken away.

"Thea, I don't want to be alone! YOU PROMISE!" he cried but Arthea remained silent only tears streaming down her face.

In the end, Lazarus was sucked into the vortex, and as soon as he left the vortex closed faster than a blink of an eye.

Arthea watch in silence as she hugged her brother's unconscious body tightly.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry"
