Chapter 57: I Succeeded
Mineah slumped down to the ground as she started crying, her eyes glossing over as she stared helplessly at the background. Vulcan was attacking the barrier she had created for herself, and she didn’t know how long it would actually hold.
"You bjtch! I’ll crush and destroy you!" Vulcan cursed as it tried breaking through her barrier.
Mineah closed her eyes, still sobbing as she recalled something she talked about with her mother. According to the older woman, she failed to call out Ezekiel’s soul while Vulcan tried to attack her numerous times. Her mother’s barrier broke, so she had no choice but to escape Ezekiel’s subconscious mind with his spirit, or else Vulcan would end up not just destroying Ezekiel’s spirit, but also ending her mother’s life as well.
Her mother had advised her numerous times to retreat the moment her barrier broke, and it looked like that was exactly what was about to happen.
Mineah couldn’t help but feel helpless. She felt like shouting with all of the pent frustrations inside her. She couldn’t possibly fail this. She had to bring her brother back no matter what!
In front of her, she could hear how the barrier protecting her was starting to crack. However, she ignored it. Instead of fleeing, she slowly got back on her feet to try again.
"I won’t let you take my brother away from us!" she firmly declared as a powerful energy surged from within her body. She slowly raised her head, her fight coming back to her as she stood resolute. Unknown to her, her eyes glowed with a fusion of ice and fire as she gritted her teeth. "Ezekiel!!!"
She couldn’t... She refused to give up on her brother!
Back in the real world, Tarah watched as Mineah’s body floated into the air, a mixture of red and blue auras covering her body as fire and ice fought over her. The hot breeze inside the cave caused by the dragon all turned into ice, the heat replaced by the chilling cold.
