SPELLBOUND Chapter 572 - Visitors

Chapter 572 - Visitors

After speaking with Gavrael for a while about Evie's situation, Gavriel told him to switch places with him. And just as his eyes turned blue, the king's signal came.
Evie quickly grabbed onto Gav's arm when the queen told Gavrael to use his magic to bring them all to the camp near the abyss.
With Gavrael's level of power, he could teleport many people over, all at once. He could reach his destination in one attempt as well, no matter how far the distance needed to travel.
So within just a few seconds after all the individuals in the veranda disappeared into smoke, they all materialized by the abyss.
The military camp was so large, it literally surrounded the entire abyss. Warriors were everywhere, some were practicing on speed casting their magic and others were practicing on combat moves.
The place was busy and Evie and the vampires and light faes could not help but be impressed at the strength of this army. Every warrior here felt incredibly strong and capable.
Evie was not surprised as she had heard from queen Beatrice that the dark faes had been fighting against monsters for countless of years now. Their endless battles against the monsters must have made them this powerful.
If Evie did not see that vision, she would probably have doubted that this kind of army would even be able to lose against the likes of mindless monsters. But she knew better now. This army was not enough and… not strong enough compared to the warriors who fought with 'her' in that future. No… it did not even come close to being enough. The dark faes she saw in her vision were definitely many times stronger than those that she was seeing now. And Evie was not even comparing them to the dark faes who rode the dragons. Those riders were far stronger, and they were the ones that she was intending to look for now. This was the first order of the day.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness…" a man approached them, and Evie's eyes immediately widened as soon as she looked at his face and could not help but feel excited. This man… he was one of the dragon riders!
"Please follow me," he added and then led the way towards the King.
"Is he one of the dark faes you are looking for?" Gavrael whispered to Evie and Evie nodded. He had seen how she had started to fidget and got all eager after that soldier appeared.
"What's his name?" Evie whispered back.
"His name is Cadmus, my father's second-in-command. He's one of my trainers when I was young… along with Alvion." Gavrael said and Evie nodded. She was fully focused and interested in the information that she is hearing for the first time from Gav.
As they passed by a group of warriors fighting a monster, Evie halted in her steps.
"Did they catch that monster from the Abyss? I thought that there were no monsters that are coming out for a while now?" Evie questioned.
"You're right, this monster is from the forest. One of the monsters who had lived outside of the Abyss for some time now."
"I see…" Evie focused her gaze on the beautiful warrior dark fae fighting it while many warriors were surrounding them.
Some warriors started murmuring.
"Her finding is definitely useful and commendable. However, a one hit kill will only work if the monster opens its mouth. Meaning, that trick would work if and only if the monster opens its mouth."
"Right. That's a big flaw. Since it's very hard to force the monster's mouth to open."
"By the way, I wonder why the king summoned all the lords over here. Look, we're all here now. Even the generals are not exempted."
"Don't tell me the king called everyone over for this?!"
"Definitely, not, right? This is indeed impressive… but I don't this is enough of a reason to gather the lords here."
"Look! Aren't those… vampires and whoah… light faes! They really do exist. Look at them!"
"F**k they're too beautiful that it's blinding!"
"They don't feel that strong though."
"You're right."
"Why are they here too? Can they even kill a monster?"
"Whoa… Is that their queen?"
"Can't see her face, but she's the only one covered. So most probably."
"Really? If that their queen, then doesn't she feel a bit too weak? Like we could feel His Highness' dark magic all the way from here even if he's far away. Same thing for the His Majesty and the other Lords. But we literally feel nothing unusual even if the light fae Queen is so near to us."
"Well, maybe, Light faes aren't very strong? Just like the vampires."
As the common warriors murmured to each other about the visitors that were walking among them, Gavrael suddenly blazed and was about to pull his arm away from Evie but Evie stopped him.
"Let me go for a while Evie, I'll just teach those damn idiots a lesson they would not be forgetting anytime soon!" Gavrael was gritting his teeth as if what he heard was something unacceptable.
"Stop it, Gav. You can't blame them for thinking that way. They haven't seen our abilities yet so they're only speculating based on what they currently observe. That's common."
"Still, no one's allowed to call you weak and continue living a good life, Evie." He hissed and Evie chuckled, causing Gavrael to blink at her. Even the elite vampires secretly smiled at his words. Their king was truly a wife pleaser.
"Calm down, Gav. Alright, let me handle this myself. I'll show them something interesting. Samuel." Evie called and Samuel approached her immediately.
Evie whispered something to him, and Samuel looked at her with wide eyes for a moment, but he eventually nodded.
The next moment, while the female warrior was on the ground, Samuel suddenly landed before the monster. Like a blur, he leapt and kicked at the monster's throat. A crack was heard, and something seemed to have broken when Samuel did that. And the monster's mouth just fell opened the moment he had kicked at its throat.
Then in a blink of an eye, the monster collapsed to the ground. Samuel was already pulling his sword from its mouth. Those who were not paying much attention did not catch his fast movements and were stunned, seeing a vampire suddenly pulling a weapon out of a dead monster's mouth.
Everyone gaped. They were astounded at what they were seeing!
"What! Just like that?! So simple?!!"
"Could it be that a monster's mouth opens when it's throat is kicked?"
"The f**k! He killed it without even using any magic at all."
"He did it in one move! That was siiiick!!"
"How did the vampire know about how to kill a monster?!"
As Samuel nonchalantly left the area, the woman called out.
"Wait a moment. The way to make the monster open its mouth by force is to kick its throat?" she asked respectfully, and Samuel nodded simply.
"Yes, one must break that bone in their throat to force their mouth to drop open." Samuel replied without expression.
"H-how did you find out –"
"Our queen told us." Samuel cut her off and was about to leave when another voice called him out. This time, it was Lord Cairus. Samuel had already met him at the camp near the portal.
"Samuel. I didn't know you vampires have knowledge about killing these monsters who are supposed to only exist in the Under Lands. That's very impressive. Could it be that you vampires also know how to kill the bigger monsters? The one you killed was the lowest level. How about this one?"
Another monster was brought into the ring. A much bigger and more dangerous one.
Samuel was silent. He noticed that this monster was completely different from that monster he had just killed. Its neck was thicker and covered with bulky scales. A sharp kick or a weapon would not be sufficient to even harm it!
"It seems that he does not have any ideas. Maybe they can only deal with the lowest type of monsters." The common warriors murmured amongst themselves.
All of a sudden, a bright light zipped past them and hit the bigger monster's eyes and as soon as the monster roared, it fell back to the ground. A sword was already planted in its throat.
The dark faes were all even more speechless as this time, they watched Zanya walked casually towards the monster and pulled the sword out.
