Chereads / Mera and the Power of Dreamcatcher / Chapter 8 - Dark and Luminous Lords

Chapter 8 - Dark and Luminous Lords

The cunning smile of the Rode clan's witch changed to a look of surprise when she saw her sworn enemy stand up after that lethal attack of her hand transformed into a jumble of claws; however, Veria began to move her hands while muttering some phrases that I suspected were part of one of her incantations as a witch.

"I'll show you what can be achieved by mixing the magic of my clan with the energy of my dreamcatcher!" Shouted Veria at her. "DNUHJ AK NOPMAAS!" Exclaimed angrily.

"I don't understand why you don't die!" The dark witch shouted in despair.

For a few seconds I could notice how, in front of Veria, a large bluish silhouette appeared and launched itself serpentinely against her enemy, who had trouble reacting in time and who desperately began to utter an incantation to counter it with clumsy movements of her hands and a trembling voice a few seconds before the guardian hit her.

"BADHAANA!" she shouted in desperation, confident that her magic countered that of her opponent.

Before the astonished gaze of those of us present, the witch of the Tanis clan imprints more magic on her spell, breaking the Noctal's force shield, and projects herself against the wall with a strong impact. Veria falls to her knees as if all her strength had been used in that spell. Lahir, her companion, ran to hold her while Kendra, the dark witch, begins to spit a viscous liquid from her mouth while standing up and looking hatefully at her enemy.

"No, I will not be defeated by someone from a lesser clan!" "I know of the..." Her words were cut off by the impact of a violet projectile.

In front of Lahir and Veria, a woman with cleavage showed her back, and on it was the glow of a dreamcatcher in the same color as what had hit the Noctal.

"You talk too much; why don't you die already?" Sharin Almeira said with displeasure.

The dark witch tried to remove whatever hit her in the face, but she began to collapse at the same time that her body burned in an incandescent indigo fire with loud screams of pain, cursing the Encantris, while Lahir, the dark glasses guardian, took Veria away from the place. In desperation, I advanced towards the altar where Remina was trapped, trying to free her from those shackles with symbols that could be some incantations, and from there I could see that many guardians managed to break through the violent clashes of both sides and When my eyes saw what was happening in that part of the site, I saw that horrible form of intimacy materializing between my friend and that sinister-looking blonde girl.

"Flesh. Blood. And a kind soul..." "It's a sacrifice he gladly accepted!" the hideous creature muttered, looking at Remina.

My girlfriend was trembling as she stood in front of whatever it was that girl had called, and I could feel the same fear I felt when I saw that beast in front of the balcony of my house, ready to kill me.

"RUN AWAY, FOR GOD'S SAKE, RUN AWAY FROM THERE!" I shouted in desperation to see my friend cornered.

"MERA! HELP ME!" Remina shouts.

Seeing my friend as scared as I was once, I gathered courage in my being and activated the dreamcatchers that materialized in front of my hands. That's when that pack of golden wolves regrouped again while listening to the pleas of my heart to protect my friends, as the brave wolves entered to fight against that bulbous-headed creature with many eyes and claws in their hands. The wolves did not hesitate to confront it, throwing themselves against that grayish being that exclaimed words that I did not understand, but the more I pronounced them, the more I understood their meaning.

"ROSHAKKAAAAAAA. WHY ARE YOU SENDING YOUR SERVANTS TO FIGHT FOR YOU?" "Face me like we did before the birth of Gaia!" exclaimed the horrible monster in a guttural voice.

Another voice answered him through the golden wolves that fought on my behalf; it was the voice of Roshakka, the chained being that I could see that time I cried out for his help.

"We are not allowed to influence the destiny of Gaia's children! Your presence in this world only sullies the covenant with Ibwa. The voices echoed back through the golden beasts.

"ARRRGGG! A THOUSAND TIMES DAMN LUXXIANT, CHILDREN OF AWAUKEN! "I AM THE SON OF ESELENA; MY LOYALTY IS ONLY TO HER!" The monstrous form replied angrily.

Zeylan along with other guardians launched an offensive against that being of considerable size, launching spells along with the attacks of their weapons, from which the being only protected itself by covering itself with its arms full of muscles, receiving the impacts of the advance of the guardians of dreams. When I saw all this, I took a step forward. I could not leave my friend in the middle of the crossfire and running between the bodies of Nóctals and allies around me until I reached Remina, who Kiara Luna the guardian of the bow released a couple of arrows that broke the shackles. I rushed and rushed until I reached Remina, who Kiara Luna, the guardian of the bow, released a couple of arrows that broke the s

"Mera, what's going on?" Remina asked me while holding my hand tightly.

"We need to get out of all this madness first, Remina; when we can be safe, I will tell you everything." I answered, looking for a way out to get her out of there.

Remina was silent for a few seconds, trying to understand the situation and my words. When I reached the other end of the confrontation, I could see how one of my summons shot towards three guards who had shot down a good number of Nóctales with their weapons, making me turn around to see that dark lord advancing towards where Remina and I were. I needed to act fast before that creature tried to devour both of them.

"Don't try to take my sacrifice!" "YOU ARE JUST A MEANINGLESS EXISTENCE BEYOND BEING OUR FOOD IN OUR NATURAL ORDER!" shouting at the monstrosity.

I clutched my arms in fury, feeling that tingle in my body like the first time I had used the power of my dreamcatcher, but Roshakka's voice came back to my mind as if it were part of my consciousness.

"The greatest power of Eselena's children is to instill fear; when you escape from it and cry for courage, the mother will make the web to trap them." said the voice inside my head.

When the voice of the shepherd of the golden fields ceased, I hugged my friend before the great monstrosity approached to catch us. I looked at that being, feeling how many butterflies fluttered around me in the same way that pack of golden wolves also did it, and all these beings of the same color as the dreamcatchers that shone in front of my hands threw themselves against that dark lord.

"I am not afraid of you or of any being that dares to harm people I love!" I expressed my defiance to the one in front of me.

At that instant, all these golden beings attacked as a single adversary against the dark summoning. The impact was so loud and strong that I could hear the monstrosity scream in pain because the butterflies had blinded it while the wolves attacked synchronized with bites that detached pieces of flesh from the horrible being. Zeylan took advantage of that opening in the enemy's defense to attack that enemy.

"Let's not give it time to react, Guardians!" He shouted to the other Dream Guardians.

The Noctals that remained standing had lost their human form, showing their faces distorted as well as their limbs. They ran to get in front of the dark lord and avoid the attack of the other guardians, but Zeylan managed to overcome the barrier that the desperate enemies tried to make by cutting the heads of those who tried to prevent him from approaching the creature, taking an impulse and jumping against the blinded creature, wounding it with his flaming sword in the torso, and dodging the attempts of this monster

"There must be a way to defeat it, or else we will not be able to defeat them." I thought at that moment until my gaze was fixed on that girl who had summoned him.

I felt something in that girl that I could not avoid; it was like a familiar feeling or seeing something that somehow you think you know, as if I followed an energy that brought me closer to her, noticing how the cries of fighting from both sides began to disappear until that space was only diluted. Focusing my sight on that girl sitting on the ground keeping the silhouette of a dark dreamcatcher between her hands while muttering some chants, while tears were falling from her face, I felt that just like her, that tear was spilling from my eyes, somehow I felt that fear and pain in her

"I know what you feel; I understand your fear and the pain of hurting someone you don't want!" I expressed myself as I stood in front of her, noticing in her that sad face of that night when I met Zeylan.
