Chapter 154: Soaking in the lake

Alina stepped out of the secret room and let out a deep sigh of relief, her tense muscles finally relaxed. Erebus wasn't a force to be reckoned with, and she'd already involved herself with him. She had been so desperate when her husband died centuries ago, she tried everything to bring him back, but nothing worked, and she realized the only thing that could help was Erebus.

Back then, she couldn't break Erebus' spell on her own, she needed another person's help, someone she could trust. Someone like Azure, he was her childhood friend, they used to be close like siblings in the past, he'd been a friend of her husband as well. And when she told him her plans, he had been against it at first, but in the end, she talked him into assisting her, she let him know all the powers he'd have by helping her break Erebus' spell. It took days of convincing before he finally agreed.
