Chapter 370: Vanquishing A Demon
A powerful gust of wind encompassed the building, sending the souls lingering about vanishing into thin air. Those who tried to escape the incoming wind, knowing they would face proper judgment after this, ran towards safety, but evading the wind was inevitable, and they were instantly swept forward, only to have their forms vanish into dust.
Carmela dropped to her knees, and she stared with horrified eyes as her hands slowly began to vanish before her very eyes, a situation she feared more than anything. She shook her head in denial, refusing to accept the truth, she looked like she was going crazy, and when she lifted her head to gaze at Samantha who towered in front of her, a surge of fury roused within her.
"I’LL KILL YOU! YOU HEAR ME??" And when she reached for Samantha with her already vanishing hands, all Samantha did was wave her hands dismissively in front of her, and Carmela’s soul was swept away, like sands caught in the wind. There was immediate silence after Carmela’s scream died down, and Samantha glanced at Alistair, who gazed at his own body, starting to slowly vanish like everyone else.
He seemed content with what was happening, to Samantha’s relief, but at the same time, she hated the idea of this being their last encounter together. He helped her, regardless of the consequences it brought, and maybe... if there was a way... a way to bring him back... she would do anything to make sure he comes back but—
"Alistair."
When he met her teary gaze, his eyes curved into a crescent moon, and he did the only thing he was capable of doing at that moment.
"Take good care of my little niece." He made the sign with his hands, pure affection displaying in his countenance. It was the only message he could send across before his soul vanished into thin air, and Samantha stared in a daze at the sign she interpreted, or assumed she did.
His little niece?
Snapping out of her reverie, Samantha wanted to exit the top when unexpectedly, Marius’s form materialized in front of her. He grabbed her by her throat, and Samantha soon found herself dangling from the edge of the building, with Marius’s grip tightly around her neck.
