Chapter 251: Devon’s Scream
As soon as Ezekiel arrived, he went straight to his sister Mineah at the Valcrez camp.
"I’m sorry, sister. I hate to disturb your recovery and—" He halted when he finally saw baby Alya in his sister’s arms.
"She’s so beautiful," he gasped.
Mineah chuckled. "How about holding her in your arms?"
Ezekiel quickly nodded and carefully took baby Alya from her mother.
"I heard about the news. Nikolai is with Darius right now, coordinating how our camp can help," Mineah informed him.
Ezekiel nodded, momentarily forgetting his urgency while staring at his new niece. "You’re a natural with babies, aren’t you?" Mineah commented.
Ezekiel chuckled as he gently swayed baby Alya in his arms. She smiled beautifully, clearly enjoying his attention.
"Why did you want to see me in a hurry?" Mineah questioned.
Ezekiel looked at his sister and said directly, "Devon’s bloodthreads are still on the loose. There are two remaining bloodthreads I must destroy, but I have no way to locate them. I was hoping you might be able to distinguish them from those with demon blood. I have the list, and—"
"King Amon," Mineah suddenly interrupted. "He has Devon remnants in him. It’s possible that it’s the bloodthread I saw. That’s why Nikolai is now coordinating with Darius. I informed Mage Jayra about this, and they’re on their way to where Amon is."
