Chapter 213 Sever The Connection!

"Why?" Tania asked, puzzled.

Rolfe smiled as he came to stand in front of her. "Because there is a possibility that your wings may appear. If they appear, Ileus will have to use his unlock spell. This part of Yunabi will shake your natural instincts…"

A small seed of excitement stirred to life in her stomach when she thought as to how her wings would be like and whether she would be able to… handle them. Her stomach knotted with anticipation mostly because she had hardly ever imagined that she would have wings, let alone have a fae mother. What would it be to stretch her wings and take to the sky? She had this itching on her back always for as far as she remembered. Eltanin had noticed that white streaks of lights on her back. Often, she had this strong urge to unfurl something and be free, yet she only woke up to reality.

When Rolfe said that her wings might appear, her eyes became misty as emotions choked the back of her throat. "Really?" she asked in a hoarse voice.

Rolfe knew how she felt. She was so sweet and naïve and gullible that he couldn't help but sympathized with her. She had suffered so much in her young life that it was a great thing that the girl wasn't broken. Instead, she showed signs of resilience. When he picked up the soul stone from the ground after she had thrown it, he had covered it up with his magic. The magic was not only to conceal her location, but also to not let Menkar enter her dream. It was very dark and strong magic, one that only he could do. But how far could Rolfe help when a piece of soul was stolen. That was the darkest form of magic, one that he had never encountered, but had heard of. Menkar was going to be very upset and try to break his seal, but that would confirm his doubts. He had doubted something about Menkar from a long time, but there was no solid evidence and he also had to talk to Kinshra about it. _{am not going to promise anything at this time, Lusitania," he said. "I don't know how Yunabi is going to treat you after a certain point. After all, the magic that you absorb becomes a part of your soul. And a piece of your soul is with Menkar. We have to determine how much has he stolen and what can be done without it. Still…" he sighed. From the corner of his eye, he saw Ileus coming into the cave. "Do you know where Menkar holds this piece of soul? I mean is it in a room or trapped in a tomb or—"}

"It is in a soul stone just like this," Tania said. "I always see it hanging around his neck. But he keeps it hidden."

Rolfe's brows furrowed in anger. "The sly bastard!" With a rough exhale he looked at Ileus and said, "You have to stand behind her. We are entering the next part of Yunabi. I don't know at what point she will begin to feel the need to unfurl her wings, but when her need is strongest, you have to use your magic to unlock them."

Ileus gave a tight nod and went to stand behind her at a distance. He said, "The magic of unlocking is only effective if her wings were locked, but she never ever saw her wings. Why do you think the unlock magic would work? There were no wings to begin with."

Rolfe opened the arcana. "Or it is possible that the moment she was born, someone used that magic on her?"

p、and a-n、o、vel Ileus pursed his lips and raised an eyebrow. "Quite likely. Though I highly doubt that someone would be this powerful in Araniea to cast that spell on her. That kind of magic was cast by the Elders of the fae kingdom on Anastasia." Suddenly, his eyebrows knitted. "Unless—"

Rolfe chuckled. "There is no need to draw conjectures, Aly. Let's just focus on our job right now. However, if what I am thinking is true, there is something much more than all of this."

A shudder of horror surged through Tania. What were the two talking about? And why weren't they telling her? She was about to ask Rolfe, when he cut her off by opening the book and asking her to read the next part. _​

This time when she read the text seemed to scream and resist her.

"Louder!" Rolfe commanded. "It won't come to you unless you command it. Don't be gentle with it!"

She read it again, loudly, commanding, but nothing happened. Her anxiety rose to the next level.

Anastasia and Eltanin rushed inside when they heard screeches that sounded like someone was in need of urgent help. When they came in, they saw that Tania was reading Yunabi.

"Stronger!" Rolfe commanded because the text wouldn't move. The symbols would screech and wiggle and restrain from leaving the book. Rolfe looked at Eltanin. "Come and stand behind her."

At first, when Tania had started reading Yunabi, Rolfe would always ask everyone to stay away, but Eltanin was surprised when he asked her to join Tania. However, he was waiting for an opportunity to help his mate. He closed the gap in between them in a few long strides and came to stand behind her.

"Can you connect with her? She needs more power," Rolfe said, looking angrily at the arcana.

"I can try!" Eltanin breathed. He didn't know what he would do. But he stood behind her and wrapped his arms across her waist. He opened his mind link with her and when he sensed her mind channel, he sent a wisp of his thought followed by a wisp of his aether. 'Can you hear me, love?' Aether spilled out of his eyes like blue smoky mist.

'I can,' she replied through the same channel. 'But I did feel something cold with it. Are you trying to numb my senses?'

Wives! Breathing a sigh of relief that he could so easily connect with her, he chuckled and said, 'That's my energy. Accept it fully and then read the arcana. I would dare those bloody symbols and yank them out of it!'

She tittered. It was so much fun to be with him and read Yunabi. He sent more of his aether through her. Closing her eyes, she received it through their mind link. It was cool and it soothed her anxiety. When she opened her eyes, they were violet. She looked at the text of Yunabi and started reading it. Its screech was so shrilly that Anastasia had to cover her ears. But as Tania spoke, her words came out with a blue mist. The mist spilled over the arcana. It spread over it and yanked the symbols out of the book. As soon as they left the book, they converted into gray smoky tendrils. They started traveling towards Tania.

"Sever the connection, now!" Rolfe yelled. If the tendrils reached Eltanin, they would destroy him.

Eltanin was… entranced. He became a captive. He didn't want to sever the connection.
