The Empress and her children screams during the day time because their bodies do not like the presence of sunlight. It burns their skins literally.
At first, food was been given to the royals on a daily basis but as days passed by, their appetite began to wander off from the usual. Instead the few selected maids who were tasked to drop food inside the bed chambers never returned.
Of course the maids didn't return because the royal family had drifted into the path of cannibalism. It had reached to the point where the royals would wait patiently for anyone to come in but said person never gets the luxury of coming out.
And with this fact, the royals have since been fed once a week. One could only imagine how skinny they would look like right now.
"Are you ready?" Cecilia whispered once more and Dante nodded in response.
"We will have to move very quickly," Cecilia mouthed before opening the door very slowly
'Huh? Quickly? Does it mean they move fast.'
'Damn it!! then I've gotta hold the potions in hand,' Dante said inwardly before bringing out the black potion and holding it with his hand.
Seeing the door as Cecilia begins to open it, Dante instantly released electrical currents around himself. Right now his whole being had current surging through it at an alarming rate.
If anyone were to touch him right now, there's a high chance the person explodes or gets flung away.
He walked right behind Cecilia with the two black potions now in hand. Both bottles were now opened and the electric current had now reached every available part of his body.
His silver colored hair was now standing erect while floating against the laws of gravity as it illuminated the scenery around them.
Cecilia looked towards Dante's way one more time. He nodded to signal her his readiness.
With Dante's blood churning as electricity course through his veins, he was clearly set and ready to go.
*Bang!!*
The doors were opened wide and a huge gust of wind blew into the dark uncanny room from the hallway. The revolting smell of death and rotten corpse lingered within the room.
"Grr!"
A young boy around the age of ten growled and came running towards Cecilia in the nude. His body looked frail and ailing as he dashed towards her with his little member between his legs oscillating like a pendulum bob.
He was hungry, evident by his bony appearance and his incessant drooling. But Cecilia cared not of these details. She immediately flapped her already released black Angel wings and flew head on to the boy.
Her hands were clutched tightly on the boy's shoulders as she dragged him back into the room and flew straight to the top.
Seeing this, Dante followed right after and teleported straight to the top of the room alongside both Cecilia and the boy. With his legs now dangling in the air, Dante took aim to pour the poison into the boy's mouth.
Cecilia tilted her head a bit, allowing him access to quickly shove the potion into the boy's agape mouth.
Unbeknownst to Dante, both the boy's mother and sister were crawling on either side of the room walls like spiders with sharp fingernails and toenails, dashing towards where they were in a bizarre anomalous speed.
Dante let go of both Cecilia and the boy and faced towards his right to see a young girl around the age of eighteen apparently in the nude also with her bald head reflecting the light of his glowing hair .
Her eyes instantly closed shut upon witnessing his bright hair. Sensing his opportunity to act, he instantly grabbed hold of her neck.
"Grrr!!"
This made her to let go of the ceiling and scratch his hand that were clutched onto her neck. She tried desperately to be released from his clutches but he shove the other potion in hand into her mouth after noticing how she left her mouth wide open with the hope of biting him.
With the last person being the Empress, she had already rushed downwards to attack Cecilia who had just dropped the boy and was about to grab hold of another vial.
Seeing this Dante instantly teleported behind the Empress who had already leaped and was just at an arms length from plunging her teeth into Cecilia.
With him appearing behind the Empress whose body parts were swollen and her skin were filled with blotches and blisters just like her children,
Dante adeptly dropped her daughter and caught the Empress leg to drag her towards his path in a more rapid pace than her own speed.
Granting her no luxury to react, Dante instantly wrapped his arms around her head to form a headlock. Now restricting her from free movement, the nude Empress whose head was hairless just like her children, started struggling to release herself from his clutches.
Cecilia rushed over with the black potion in her hand before thrusting it into the Empress mouth. With the potion flowing down her throat, the Empress nerves began to pacify as her blood thirsty ravenous urge began to die down.
Dante looked towards Cecilia and both instantly nodded towards each other with a smile. It was amazing how they both accomplished the task within an astonishing period of sixty seconds.
But that wasn't all, for the true battle had yet to begun. For the curse had yet to be fully lifted. The black potion was actually called a dragon poison. Landon had amalgamated a lot of materials to make the dragon poison.
The dragon poison is the most deadly poison across the seven realms. In contrast to their kin, dragons were known to be ferocious beasts capable of destroying an entire race.
And with that fact, the most deadly poison had been afforded such a name.
For years, the dragon poison had been known to have no cure but now it seems Landon had been able to successfully brew a cure for such a poison.
'You bastard genius,' Dante couldn't help but compliment Landon.
'Achoo!' Meanwhile in the Emperor's bed chambers Landon suddenly had the urge to sneeze right after checking the Emperor's vitals.
"Pass me the jars," With nothing but mere seconds remaining before everything they've been doing comes to naught if they do not act fast, Dante quickly asked for the three glass jars kept in the bag they brought earlier.
The glass jars had a spirit seals attached to it. This aids in preventing spirits from escaping. Due to the dragon poison already ingested, the royals have about less than thirty seconds before their hearts stops beating.
