They arrived at the Aden family house and the whole place was surrounded by their men. Assistant Aaron took Davian to where the evil matriarch and her daughter-in-law as well as the shaman from earlier and the burly man were all held hostage.
The old matriarch and her daughter-in-law were huddled together in fear. After they had been interrupted and the ritual disrupted, the two were so angry at the turned of events.
They were especially bitter at the fact that their beloved Dakan chose that harbinger of misfortune over them, his own family. They had gone to bed in a bad mood only to be rudely awoke by these fiercely looking men holding them at gunpoint to the courtyard where the ritual ceremony was disrupted.
To their shock,they realised that they weren't alone. The shaman and the burly man who helped them. He has been so badly beaten up that his facial features couldn't be make out. His head was swollen like a pig's head. Fear gripped their heart as they wondered who was after them.
The old matriarch felt real fear for the first time when he recalled that man from that day. His cold gaze that send shivers down her spine. She trembled. Her eyes widen in horror when Davian appeared in front of them. His gaze was icy cold and full of murderous intent.
On this cold dawn, the old matriarch broke out in cold sweat. "You..you... what are you doing here?" She stuttered, her old old voice trembling in fear.
Davian ignored her and walked to the burly man who was being restrained to his knees by two men He kneeled in front of him.
"You were the one who touched my woman" he spoke coldly, smiling.
The burly man cried out in fear and pain, struggling to break free. He was a butcher in the town who only wanted to make some extra money. He accepted to help the old matriarch kidnap a foreigner for a huge sum of money. Who would've thought everything will turn out to be so troublesome. He was sleeping soundly when he was rudely awakened and attacked by a group of men. He tried to fight back but he was outnumbered and beaten so brutally that he thought he'll die in their hands.
He felt both fearful and resentful that someone dared to harm him like this and he doesn't even know who they are and why they targeted him. When the butcher saw the cold eyes and the menacing smile of the man in front of him who had a point has taken out a swiss knife and was casually playing with it.
He was so scared that he wet his pants on the spot. This man was the devil. He finally realized why he was taken here. That foreigner he kidnapped was the cause.
''Please spare me. I didn't do anything. It was the that woman who forced me. She's the one that is responsible for everything that happened. Don't harm me''. He started struggling desperately, managing to regain his freedom.
He kowtowed, hitting his head hard on the floor over and over again, hoping and praying to be spared yet Davian looked on with cold indifference.
''You want me to spare you?'' he asked.
The butcher raised his head to look at him and nodded vigorously, ''Please spare me. I really didn't mean to touch your woman. I was momentarily blinded by greed and made a mistake. It was that old woman that wanted to kill your wife. She wanted to sacrifice her life to save her grandson'' He didn't hesitate to throw the old matriarch under the bus to save his own skin.
''SHUT UP!!'' The old matriarch screamed, pointing angrily at the butcher. ''Shut up for this old lady''.
''You old witch, you've harmed me.'' the butcher retorted, his distorted face glaring hatefully at the old matriarch.
Davian remained unfazed by their drama and declared, "I'll let you off if you leave behind your fingers for me''
The butcher's eyes widened in horror, shaking his head in refusal, ''No please. You can't do that to me. I'm the only bread winner of my family. I can't lose my fingers.'' He cried, tears and snot falling.
''But your hands dirtied her body. What to do?. I have to make it disappear'' Davian muttered, talking to himself as though he was in a difficult position. Then he suddenly smiled and said, ''You can leave then'' The butcher's eyes widened in surprise, ''Really?. I can leave here?''
Davian hummed, showing him the way to leave.
Elated, the butcher staggered to his feet and made a run for it. He hadn't gotten far when a gunshot. Davian had shot him dead in the head. He watched on coldly as the butcher staggered and fell down dead in front of the old matriarch and her daughter-in-law. His eyes wide open.
They screamed in horror.
"He's dead. He killed him" Dakan's mother screamed hysterically, having lost her mind in fear.
The old matriarch fell down in fear, realising that this man will not spare their lives as well. Davian walked casually over to them, looking at them coldly.
"Get rid of them completely. Turn them to ashes" he ordered. Assistant Aaron nodded. The old matriarch and her daughter-in-law were dragged away cursing and crying.
The shaman who was also there suddenly started to convulsed, shaking violently as her eyes rolled back, becoming all white. Her expression ferocious as she pointed at Davian and shouted in a hoarse and omnous voice, " Death is coming for you. Your end is near. She's bringing with her the sword that will decapitate your head. You're doomed to die by the hands of your beloved"
After saying that she collapsed on the ground. Davian didn't say anything but stared at her coldly.
"Too noisy. Cut off her tongue " He ordered and walked away.
Assistant Aaron stared at his master's departing back with worried and conflicted eyes. That day, the people in the Aden family ceased to exist.
They were engulfed by fire, burned and reduced to ashes along with everything that belong to them.
