"What is happening? What is that thing behind luna Iris?"
"I think that kind of spirit, I heard a Serafim is a bridge between living being and spirit."
"And then why that spirit with the luna?"
"Maybe the Serafim lent it to her?"
"Yes, I think it worked like that."
People talked about the Sylphs that appeared with Iris, but right now the same spirit had returned to be by the Serafim’s side once the birthing process was completed safely and both mother and daughter were fine.
As a shifter, Della would recover quickly, her healing ability would make sure she would return to her normal health in a matter of a few hours and tomorrow she would be like usual, especially when Iris had helped with the healing process too.
Currently, the Sylphs returned to be by Abby’s side, while people assumed the Serafim was kind enough to help with the birthing process, but Abby and her five knights knew that was not the case, but it was not only them, who didn’t buy with people’s assumption.
However, in this moment, there was no time to dispute over that matter, because currently, they were surrounded by monster and even though the shield looked strong enough to hold them back, but the sight of thousand of monsters would easily make you forgot to breath.
Children were crying, people trembling and the warriors and knights were on their high alert, ready to have the most vicious fight once the protection was broken.
Cedric stood in the front, leading his knights, while beside him was a black beast, leading all the warriors, yet Koda was nowhere to be seen, though half of the warriors were the member of his pack. He put the responsibility on Cane completely to lead his own warrior.
"You don’t realize that, luna?" Aliana asked, she stared at Iris after she finished telling her what had happened when she helped with the delivery.
Iris shook her head. "No, I don’t." She was sitting next to Aliana, while staring at the monsters outside of the protection. She wondered how that could happen, but right now her curiosity was on the back of her mind because of how nervous she was.
She knew Cane would be in the front line and if the protection was broken... Iris didn’t even want to think of the possibility. At this moment, there was nothing they could do, but prayed there was no mishap in the Serafim’s plan.
"One more portal has closed!" a sorcerer announced it, as they managed to close another portal. "Four more to go!"
Aliana wanted to ask about what happened earlier again, but she clamped her mouth when she watched how scared Iris was, thus she held her hand to comfort her and stayed silent.
Aderan stayed behind to accompany his mate and their newborn baby daughter, while Ethan and the other had gone to the front line to be with their alpha and the other warriors.
Lou was sitting a little bit far from Iris, he had this impassive expression, he didn’t look approachable and no one wanted to sit close to him, but the merchant couldn’t care less about that. There were a lot of things going on in his mind to even notice that.
He couldn’t understand how Iris could do that and how? People whispered about the Serafim lent the air spirit to her, but Lou found that very ridiculous.
He saw the expression the Serafim had when the Sylph was with Iris, that was not the look that you would make if you knew what you were doing. The Serafim was in complete shock and she didn’t even try to hide it.
"One more portal has closed!" The same sorcerer in his white cloak announced it, as they managed to close another portal. "Three more to go!"
A few minutes later he announced the same thing.
"One more portal has closed! Two more to go!"
People held their breath when another announcement was made.
"One more portal has closed! One more to go!"
If they managed to close all the portal, the magic users could use their power to fight the monsters. It would be a tight fight, but with the Sylph to boast their power, they would have unlimited power to do their magic. As long as the Serafim could maintain the Sylph until the end, they would be fine.
People prayed for this nightmare to stop and even most of the children had stopped crying, they buried their face against their mother’s chest and sobbed softly, afraid to see the monsters.
Iris hugged her stomach, she felt her babies were kicking from inside, they might be able to sense her nervousness and worried for their father.
Cane, please be safe. Please, protect him...
That was the pray that Iris kept repeating in her heart like a charm. She held Aliana’s hand tightly, she was grateful Aliana was here.
