Chapter 29 - Chapter 29

When Noah screamed, and the sound of his voice, which before long was impossible to hear, echoed all over the place, the people who were previously in a deep sleep woke up frightened, just after hearing the sound in the distance, and those who already they were awake and startled by how loud that cry of pain had been.

After hearing that scream, the soldiers who kept watch all night in front of the room where Sophia and Noah were staying, abruptly entered the room while exclaiming "Miss are you all right !?"

And when they entered the room and looked around desperately looking for Sophia, the two calmed down a little since their mistress was still inside the room, but they did not understand why she was crouching and crying beside the bed, while holding her hand of the man she had brought home the afternoon of the previous day.

It hadn't even been a minute since the frightened men entered the room, but Sophia's parents appeared terrified while still wearing the robes they wear when they go to sleep at night, and screamed consecutively as they entered the room "Where's my baby! ? "

"What happened here!? And where is my daughter !? "

Shortly after desperately entering the room, Sophia's mother immediately looked for her daughter looking quickly everywhere as tears of despair streamed down her face, and when she saw her daughter crying crouched beside the bed where the boy was , Mrs. Radiance quickly came up to her saying "Daughter, it's okay with y…"

When she was close to touching Sophia's shoulder, Mrs. Radiance looked up from the bed in shock, slowly pulled her arm back and placed her right hand over her mouth.

Mr. Radiance, unlike his wife who passed by without even looking at the guards, the first thing he did when he entered the room was to ask the two of them what had happened there, and while doing so he demonstrated in his expression that he was clearly worried, and irritated, because the fear that maybe someone had managed to get in there and take his most precious asset literally under his roof, was consuming him inside.

However, when he glanced at the space between the two guards in front of him and saw his daughter crying crouched beside the bed and a little behind his wife, perplexed, while looking at something in the direction of the bed.

"We also don't know what ..."

Without listening to the words of the guards, Mr. Radiance opened a space between them so that he could pass, and quickly went to his daughter to see why she was crying like that.

And when he got to his wife's side and looked ahead he understood why, Noah had an enormous amount of blood around his body, it was so much blood that it had left the entire surface of the bed red, and even with all that blood, Mr. Radiance looked well and realized that even more blood was coming out of his wounds than the one already on the bed.

"Someone brings a dressing!"

Mr. Radiance shouted after seeing that there was still blood coming out of Noah's body.

And in the meantime that they were looking for something to try to stop the bleeding, Noah's sword little by little started to get a strong red fire at its edges. Nobody had noticed that and when a maid arrived with a white cloth in her hands and saying "Here it is, sir!" Mr. Radiance quickly took that cloth and placed a part of it around Noah's body, placed it in a way that he thought could stop the bleeding, while the other part he used to press the cut deeper, hoping the bleeding at some point the bleeding would stop.

While Mr. Radiance bandaged Noah's body, the flame around the sword was only gradually increasing, but no one had noticed. But a few seconds after he started pressing Noah's wound, the sword passed in front of everyone and was right over Noah's body, and the moment she did it, Mr. Radiance was startled and quickly took his hand away. over the bruise.

"Sir!"

"Get away from that sword, sir, this can be dangerous!"

When they saw that strange sword flying, the two guards quickly drew their swords and turned them in the direction of the other.

"Put those swords down, this sword is ..."

Before Mr. Radiance could finish speaking, the fire, which previously covered only the sword, was growing stronger and beginning to cover Noah's body as well. And when that started to happen he put his left hand a little in front of his eyes, because the light that that flame emitted was as strong as its heat and that was hindering his vision.

Thanks to that strong light everyone, apart from Sophia and her father, moved away from the bed, but seeing that that flame was only fueling Mr. Radiance knew that the best choice was to walk away just like the others had done, he looked at Noah and thought 'I am really grateful to you, and I beg you to forgive me for what I am going to do . '

Seeing that she clearly would not want to leave him, Mr. Radiance threw Sophia on his shoulders, and shouted "Get out!" as he ran towards the bedroom door with Sophia hitting him on the back and crying as he shouted for Noah.

'Sorry…'

And just a few seconds after the two of them had passed through the door, the flame consumed the entire room in which Noah was "Noaaah!"

*********

That fire burned incessantly inside the room for 3 hours, and in all that time Sophia cried in her mother's arms, blaming herself for thinking that it had happened because of her.

And just like her mother, her father also stood by her the whole time, but some questions were going through her head as he looked at that strange flame.

'Why don't these flames burn the door outside the room? Why don't these flames burn anything beyond the room? 'Practically the whole house was made of wood so at that temperature, these flames could easily burn inside.

And finally, 'why are these flames not extinguished with water?'

When the fire expanded to the entire room, Mr. Radiance ordered some people to pour water to try to put out the fire, more than 30 buckets of water were thrown but the flames remained intact, it was literally as if nothing had happened, since even before touch all the water that had been thrown into the flames, had already evaporated.

*********

2 hours later

In addition to Sophia and her parents, several other people were outside the room waiting for the fire to go down to find out what happened inside.

"What happened over there !?"

Whispered an employee.

"I do not know. Question to them, they were both here when this mess started. "

A guard who had just arrived replied.

"Why are you crying so much?"

Asked a maid.

"That's because the young woman she brought in yesterday was still inside when the fire started."

Replied the maid who had taken the cloth to Mr Radiance before.

"Serious!? … Poor thing, she never approached anyone before and when it happens… "

"Hey! Do you think that man who was lying in bed is still alive? "

Asked the guard who was listening to Noah's moans of pain behind the bedroom door the night before.

The other soldier who was also on guard at the bedroom door, looked at those violent flames inside the room and said "... I don't think that's possible ..."

After a few minutes everyone stopped talking, and with that came an agonized silence that lasted a few minutes.

Shortly after those few minutes of silence had passed, all the people who were looking intently into the room were startled, as everyone thought that the fire would go down over time, but on the contrary, it just disappeared completely before their eyes.
