Chapter 245: The Shards

"Mary is…"

"Father!" Hati suddenly jumped from her bed terrified. She looked around and could neither see nor feel him.

"Calm down, we should have some time." Said Alen after she interrupted him.

"Old man. What do you mean?" She growled back at him with a raging face. "He is facing that monster right now. Father will be the first to reach his limit!" She yelled at him. Blinded by her rage she didn't even notice the new faces around her.

"Your father is a hardy one, he won't fall that easily. Or if you want it in other words. We can't help him in our state." Alen told her with a stern face.

Hati quickly swallowed her words, she remembered what happened to her mother when she intervened. Her father was the only one who could stand a chance against that dragon.

"Are they awake?" The door appeared and the cheerful voice of a woman called to them.

The moment Alen and Hati sensed her presence they jolted up. Alen quickly grabbed his staff while Hati took a fighting stance.
