THE GATE OF COSMOS.
Sirena's expression contorted the moment she saw Layla winking at her. Did her eyes see it right? That Layla... Is this her plan from the beginning?" She then tilted her head and saw Bella frowning at her. Just what in the world does that brat want right now? First, it's Cara and now Bella, Is she trying to get Sedna here too? Sirena was lost in her thoughts when she heard Bella speak.
"What's wrong? Have you turned into a mute now?" Bella raised her brow at Sirena as she melted the spear in her hand with her dark flame.
Bella dusted her hands and looked at Layla behind her. She then shook her head softly and looked at Sirena with a frown.
"You knew she was consumed by her darkness and you still wanted to kill her? Even knowing that her darkness is just temporary?"
"Who wants to kill that brat? I am just sending her back to sleep. But, looks like your lackey there have some other plans for me." Sirena rolled her eyes at them.
Bella pursed her lips and looked at Layla with a raised brow and scoffed when she saw the latter looking away, trying to evade her. She knew this wretch would do something but never thought she would be this foolish.
"Layla! Are you out of your mind? Fighting a goddess in your current state is nothing but pure suicide. Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Bella gritted her teeth and glared at Layla. She then turned to Sirena and was about to speak when they heard Layla speak.
"Sedna will be here soon," Layla whispered weakly and both Bella and Sirena turned their heads with a snap as they looked at the dark woman on the ground.
"What did you just say?" Bella whispered as she looked at Layla coldly.
"Master! Let me tell you something, You see, the core of the water goddess, which is me, is currently consumed by the darkness completely. So, if you expect the water goddess to be a simple and naive woman after her soul awakens completely, then let me tell you, You guys are dreaming! Her soul might still be weak at the moment but, it's filled with vengeance to the brim."
Bella and Sirena saw how the viciousness was showing on Layla's face. Both of them could not respond immediately. An alarm flashed in their eyes as they heard Layla speak.
"Are you saying that your current appearance is related to the darkness consumed by the soul of the water Goddess!? Bella asked as she watched more blood spill from Layla's mouth.
"I can't speak more but I have to finish the task she gave me," Layla said and suddenly her entire body turned into a big tuft of black smoke. The black smoke moved and at a lightning speed, it entered Bella's body in a flash and Bella fell on the ground as she clutched her stomach in pain.
"What's wrong?" Sirena asked in panic as she squatted beside Bella.
"It hurts!" Bella muttered weakly as sweat started dripping from her forehead and even her eyes turned pitch black but she quickly closed them shut as her body continued twisting in pain.
"Bella! Open your eyes!" Sirena muttered and closed her eyes trying to summon Roose but frowned when she failed in calling him.
"Damn it!" Answer! You bastard!" Sirena cursed and again closed her eyes. She then sighed when she felt him answer her.
"Quick! Come to the Gate of Cosmos. Something is not right with Bella!" Sirena quickly said and opened her eyes cutting off the talk.
Sirena frowned when she felt Bella stop moving and touch her hand wanting to check her pulse. She froze when she saw the black smoke that entered Bella's body earlier coming out of it and again Layla appeared before her but this time she appeared a little less dark than before.
"What did you do?" Sirena asked as she glared at Layla before her.
"What do you think will I do to my master? Wait for a while. You will know it by then!'' Layla said as she looked a little more energetic than before. Layla then looked at Bella's face and smiled softly as her eyes twinkled.
"Sirena! No matter what excuse you have, the fact that you played with my fate doesn't change. If your excuse is not appetizing to me, you know me." Layla threatened as she looked at Sirena coldly while the latter rolled her eyes with a scoff.
"What did you do just now?" Sirena asked as she looked at Layla coldly waiting for an answer but suddenly she frowned as if she sensed something. She looked at Bella in her arms and touched her wrist slowly.
Sirena's eyes widened, she turned her head with a snap and looked at Layla as her eyes held tons of questions for the latter.
"Did you hear that?" Layla asked as she looked at Bella with a soft look in her eyes.
Sirena nodded her head and said, "Hmm, It's very faint but I can hear it."
"A second heartbeat!" Sirena whispered as she gently touched Bella's stomach. She was about to turn to Layla and ask her something when she felt a presence behind her and her body stiffened when she heard that voice.
" A Second heartbeat?"
