Third POV
"Vergil.... Vergil ....Wake up Vergil " Eliza cried as Vergil was not responding to her, she looked at Vergil in pain and unconscious his face deathly pale
Cast Spell: Angels Embrace she intoned one of her strongest healing spells
As a soothing white light enveloped Vergil and began to heal the wound on his arms and rest of the body, his pained eased a little but not much, she kept spell going for a while but Vergil showed still no signs of improvement
"Little lady let me handle this" An ethereal voice heard beside her as she a lady in robes came towards her
"Who are you?" Eliza said as she guarded Vergil beside her eyes red from crying
"Don't worry I wont hurt you I am also a guest at the party" she said as her voice had magical ability to calm down
She came toward me and took Vergil from my arms and began looking at him
"He is been poisoned, It would seem the assassin weapon had been enchanted" She said as she frowned, because the poison should have killed him immediately bit his body showed signs of resisting the poison and even absorbing it
'strange' She thought
"I am sorry blame me If Vergil had not blocked the strike for me he would be fine" Eliza cried even more as guilt struck her
"Okay little girl calm down its not a dangerous situation" She said as she took a vial from her waist pack and placed it at Vergil mouth
The liquid flowed down his throat, slowly his pale face began to show some color Then she cast a spell
Grand casting: Demeter's Blessing
Clearly a grandmaster level mage as she was able to cast a Tier 7 spell a large complex array surrounded Vergil and vaguely shadow of a woman could bee seen as she placed her hands on Vergil chest, It felt as if Light
as she was treating Vergil
The knights began surveying the area one of the female knight came to Lady Eleanor
"My lady are you alright" she said as she placed a blanket on Eleanor
Eleanor still in daze could not understand the reality before her eyes,
"I... am fine... Thanks" Eleanor said
"Its alright my lady you are safe we have secured the premises and the Marquess has also been informed" the female knight replied as she tried to reassure her lady
"Where is Vergil ...." Eleanor asked as began impatiently looking around
"over there my lady" the knight said as she pointed to Vergil currently being treated by the Robe lady
she immediately recognizing the one treating Vergil as she ran running towards her
"Aunt.... Is Vergil alright" Eleanor asked, her voice trembling with concern
"Yes now he is fine just, he is just exhausted and his mana is also quite low so he passed out. He will probably wakeup in few hours" She said as she looked at her niece, her eyes reflecting a mixture of concern and relief.
"Are you alright Elie, I am sorry aunt could not get to you in time" She said sorry that her niece had to go through the situation
"Aunt... Aunt.. I .." Eleanor could not take it anymore as she embraced her aunt and began crying
"Its okay Elie its okay aunt is here" she said gently as she began patting Eleanor's back
Eliza also looked quite tense, Its not easy they are all a bunch of kids wo just turned 15 and they had to go through such an ordeal
"Okay that enough crying lets take you out of here" She said as she also placed a hand on Eliza head soothing her emotions and took the girls and Vergil with her away from the garden
Vergil POV
I am currently in a quagmire, a quagmire of darkness with no way out I feel trapped here, Time felt nonexistent here as I looked into the oblivion
"Still weak.... Get Stronger"
A voice that reverbed throughout my soul I heard when suddenly I was enveloped in light, I felt heaviness as I tried to wake up
"No need to worry Mr. and Mrs. Winchester he is fine an wake up in some time" I heard an unfamiliar voice
"Thankyou very much for your treatment Lady Clarissa" Another voice I hear that was my father
"Where am I?" I said groggily as I felt extremely tired and heavy my head pounding
"Dear Thank god you are awake" Mother said in relief as she hugged me
"I am fine mother just tired" I said as I patted mothers back
"Son are you alright " Father also came worry written all over his face
I looked at my father as he was still wearing the same clothes probably not more than a few hours I passed out but still he seemed angry and worried
I looked around and saw another Lady standing there, she was a mature woman wearing exquisite robes and a shawl hanging loosely from her shoulders she resembled Eleanor a little as her eyes were the same dark green as her and her shoulder length black hair hanging down from her shoulder, she had a well endowed figure capable of captivating anyone
The lady whose name I presume is Clarissa must have treated me
"Thankyou Madam for treating me" I said thanking her sincerely as I clearly don't feel the poison inside me
"What a clever young boy, it should be me thanking, you saved Elie from the assassin. If not were you Elie would not be able leave unscathed" She said as she sighed at the situation
"anyway little guy you are fine just take some rest, you have a lot people waiting for you" she said trying to be mysterious
"It should be the Marquess right" I said clearly I know that
"Fu Fu .... you will know soon, than I shall take my leave see you soon" She smiled at me as she left the room
"Let me take you back Lady Clarissa" my Mother said as escorting her out
only Father and I were left were left I looked at him and ask
"Father have you found the assassin" I asked this question seriously
Although I had not used my prana exclusively but still I used my space talent so I had to kill her, it may sound ridiculous but I still did not feeling anything on the thought of killing, unfortunately she escaped
"Well investigation is still ongoing, Marquess was clearly furious when he heard the news and a secret lockdown was ordered to check the entire city. I believe she will be caught soon enough and lady Clarisse arrived in time to catch the trail of assassin she will be found soon enough" Father said
"but I must say it was quite impressive of you as a Tier 1 mage you were able to defeat a 5 star Assassin" Father praised generously
"No I only caught her by surprise she knew nothing about my abilities so I was able to catch her off guard, and she never expected me being a Tier 1 could damage her so she was careless" I said as I shook my head at my father praise
Clearly of of luck and help was involved in dealing with the assassin, and my mana quality far surpasses ordinary persons other wise only Tier 3 magicians like Eliza could have dealt any damage
"Regardless whether it was planning or other it still shows your capabilities and strength any other person would not be able to response like you did" father said as he was proud of the ability displayed by his son
Eleanor did not had any way to contact security but she was able to contact her aunt Clarissa Bellatorius for help, so I made the plan to distract the assassin by making her think that the knights had been notified, she was confident in her ability to escape the knights but not a grandmaster level mage
"Although you managed to pull of the plan, but don't take needless risk like this in the future, your mother was heartbroken seeing you like this, and May she blames herself not being there for your help" Father said reproachfully
I know the plan was risky but ultimately I made such plan because of my Insufficient power, I need to step up my training it would seem as I clenched my fist
"Father I believe the marquess already knew of the threat, the security around the manner was unusually strict, as if they knew the attack would happen today" I said expressing my doubts about the situation
"Also she wasn't alone there is A boss behind her and other members infiltrating the castle. when we pretending to sleep, she was talking to her Boss on the communication device" I told father
"Yes, we have already discovered 3 other disguised members they are already captured and being interrogated as we speak and about your hypothesis earlier I also felt the same thing as the marquess knew about the attack" Father said as he contemplated
"by the way father where are we and how many people know about this assassination" I asked as I looked at the unfamiliar bedroom
"we are still at the marquess castle, and the party has long been over. besides me, Beaumont and Marquess knows about the situation a gag order has been placed to prevent the spread of situation" Father answered my question
I expected this much If it were known It would lead to loss of face of the Bellatorius.
As I was contemplating about the situation, I heard a knock on the door
