Chapitre 22: Chapter 22: The Darkness Devil: Nocturne
Chapter 22: The Darkness Devil: Nocturne
Noah was baffled at what Jorren did. In front of him, he cursed Daniel.
Angered, Noah stares back at Jorren, his gaze fumed with rage.
"You monster!", Noah screamed at the top of his voice, turning his gaze back at Daniel.
'It's the same curse…'
'Then, I must repeat everything I did previously.'
He looked at his wand which was placed beside Jorren, on the bed. Raising his hand and pointing at the wand, he uttered nothing but a single word, "Come."
All of a sudden, his wand was engulfed with a white glow right after which it started to vibrate and then levitate in the air.
Swoosh!
Like an arrow, it blasted away towards Noah who caught it as if it was a piece of paper.
Now the wand was back in his right hand which he almost instantly pointed at Daniel.
It's tip glowed with white light as he chanted the curse breaking spell: Receprio Curso!
Noah was worried, for it wasn't easy to break the curse. Heck, even he believed that it was mere luck!
But he tried, again and again. Even now, he put all his knowledge and strength, however, Daniel's condition kept getting worse by the minute.
He vomited blood and sweat covered his face. The sweat was soon replaced by much more blood that oozed out, making his skin become red.
Noah's left hand rested on Daniel's face while his right held the wand, pointed in front of him, but it was all for nothing.
The spell that Noah chanted didn't seem to take effect. He had started with his strongest spell, so obviously the weaker ones would fail to work if the strongest one couldn't break the curse.
Jorren on the other hand, enjoyed the show.
His smile just kept growing wider as Daniel's suffering increased, but wait, he didn't want to kill Daniel right away.
The curse that he chanted was strong enough to kill Daniel within minutes, but that would be too easy.
Jorren flashed the wand, the tip glowing red for a moment when the curse's effects decreased significantly.
Daniel had been coughing up blood uncontrollably till now. Finally, he was a bit relaxed. However, due to all the pain, he was panting heavily.
He raised his gaze, staring at Jorren.
"Speak boy, how were you able to use the Grand Wizard level spell…", Jorren asked, tapping the wand around his chin.
Huff huff!
Daniel could barely control himself. His lips were shivering due to pain and strength had left his body. He felt weak.
But his gaze was dominant even now, filled with hatred and spite.
"Hmm, can you do that again?", Jorren asked, his voice reverberating in Daniel's head.
"Pfft, coward, other than the curse you are nothing.", Daniel, instead of answering, ended up taunting Jorren.
"Kidnapping young girls… is that you capability?", a little bit of blood filled his mouth.
"Puh!", he spit on the floor, the blood evident.
"You are nothing but a coward, who only attacks the weak."
The continuous taunt got into Jorren's head who could barely control himself anymore. He had already fired the curse, but he thought that the spell was not enough.
He now, wanted to torcher him!
He raised his wand and chanted a spell: All of a sudden, a nail materialized in the air.
"Wha-", Noah, who was repeatedly trying to stop Daniel from speaking, noticed the creation magic with which an iron nail was created.
"N-"
Before he could plead or say anything, the nail was fired with full force towards Daniel, the aim being his left eye.
Stab!
"Arrrghh!", Daniel screamed, for the nail pierced his left eye.
Blood was already drizzling from it uncontrollably, but now, due to the sudden pierce, it sprayed like a jet.
Daniel raised his left hand, placing it over his eye, but it was useless. The blood didn't stop.
"Hahahaha."
"Feel it?"
"This is my power."
"Even when I torture you, you can't do anything."
Jorren was indeed a Grand Wizard, but he was getting ahead of himself. Having been obsessed with his powers, he was doing whatever he wanted.
Gin, despite being blind, could see his evil actions.
"Jorren, my boy…", Gin raised his voice, calling him out.
Jorren, who was in his laughing phase, all of a sudden paused, shifting his gaze towards Gin.
"Don't do this…"
Gin's words were sympathetic. His voice was gentle, for he didn't want any violence.
"This is a sacred temple, think what His Highness Diablo will think after seeing your act…"
"It is precisely Master Diablos' order on which I am acting."
"This boy right there… he is also affected by the curse."
"True, I can see that.", Gin nodded his head for he could feel a weird black essence from Daniel's body, but at the same time, he could feel a red essence.
"But I believe he is the same as you…", Gin added.
"What?", Jorren was confused when Gin said that.
"Just like how His Highness, Master Diablo has blessed you, this boy, he too is blessed in the same way."
The moment these words reached Jorren, the wand that he held almost fell to the gound.
He caught midair after leaving it, with his palm widening and the wand levitating. He stopped it with his powers.
Hearing that, he sat down on the bed again.
'That boy…'
'He is a vessel as well!?'
Jorren knew that the ones chosen by the Devil, or rather Devils, would have a similar aura around them. Perhaps in this world, Gin was the only human capable of seeing the aura – the red essence mentioned earlier.
But he had confused it with a blessing given by almighty Diablo.
Jorren on the other hand, knew very well that the one whom he worshipped, was no god but a Devil.
Therefore, he was intrigued to find out, who was Daniel's master!
He abruptly stood up from the bed and walked towards Daniel. After having approached him, he thrust his left hand forward, grabbing hold of Daniel's hair and starting to drag him away.
The chains automatically got untangled – all the chains except the ones that tied his hands and legs.
"Where are you going?", Gin asked, only to hear a single word from Jorren, "The prison."
Although it was a chapel and a temple, the underground was a captive area for sinners. It also held a place for sacrifice.
And right now, Jorren dragged Daniel away, all the way to the basement.
The steps were steep and tall, Daniel was forced to fall down each step, hitting either his head or other body part which was obviously painful. Furthermore, the nail was still in his eyes, causing him to bleed continuously.
It took about two minutes for them to arrive in the basement.
The doorway that led to the basement closed shut right after which the torches in the path, lit with blue flames. Heck, even Jorren underwent a transformation.
His hair changed first, turning into similar blue flames that danced sitting on his head. Seconds after that, his eyes turned blue – with the exception being his pupils which remained red.
He threw Daniel with great force, causing him to collide with the distant wall and leave a crack behind.
Cough!
Daniel's hairs curled down, covering his eyes. But despite that, he raised his gaze, staring at the man in front of him.
No, a monster.
"Death walker realm… am I right?", Daniel asked, a smirk sitting on his face.
"Haha, you are indeed a vessel."
"Tell me, which master do you serve!?", Jorren asked, storming towards him.
Daniel, hearing that, remained mum, lowering his head and then raising it before saying, "Why don't you ask yourself?"
Just as the words left his mouth, Daniel underwent a transformation!
Yellow flames arising from the ground engulfed him entirely following which, Daniel's hair color changed. They turned blonde.
His eyes turned yellow, again with the exception of the pupils which were still red.
Following it, the left eye healed itself and all the blood that had gushed away previously, turning his body red momentarily, vanished.
Ah, one more thing, Daniel fell unconscious and the one who now stood there, was one of the Thirteen great Devils, rank six: The Darkness Devil – Nocturne.
