Chapter 1653
“Deek, don’t give it to her!” Eliana cried out, but her voice was cut short as Kaia pulled back her hand and grabbed Eliana’s neck.
“I will kill her!”
“Stop!” I held up my hands. “I’m working on it…”
“No games! Don’t even think of using some hidden skill. We’ve already accounted for them. The fey has been dealing with your kind, so-called heroes, for longer than you can imagine.”
“I understand…” I spoke slowly. “I need to just… detach the lore.”
It had been nearly an hour of work that I wasn’t having to backpedal on. I had barely scratched the surface of this lore, yet, I now had to pull apart and give the core away.
“Deek… don’t worry about me.” Eliana cried out.
“It’s not… just you…” I closed my eyes, feeling an extremely bitter feeling inside.
Eliana gasped as if she had forgotten at that moment, her hands reflexively protecting the baby. Kaia’s eyes looked down, and then her smile grew even larger.
“Oh, is it yours? How wonderful! To think, I would have one of your relatives in my hands like you had with mine. Should I give them the same treatment?” As she spoke, a cruel look appeared on her face and the knife dropped down to her abdomen.
