Chapter 156 156: Are We Falling Into A Trap? [Pt1]



"I might have agreed to head out with you like this but I am still worried about my life. Are you sure nothing will go wrong for us?"

Enma\'s nerves had been shot ever since he had been convinced by Elysia to head out. It had been a nerve-wracking decision for him to make but Enma\'s curiosity had won in the end.

But what could you even expect from Enma at this point? Not only was he stuck in this new world, but he had no idea if his original world even existed at this point. But to be suddenly told that Elysia knew news of his home was a surprise.

\'It was my mistake to make Elysia aware that she holds power over me. Darn the villainess powers in her blood. She is good at manipulation.\'

Enma cursed inside his head as he hurried after Elysia. Now that he had disobeyed Sorias\'s orders, the only thing left for him to do was to bide behind Elysia.

"Enma, stop being a coward and walk with confidence. I cannot believe that you are a man with how easy you are to scare."

Emma teased Enma, enjoying seeing him in a compromised position. The child pouted at being called out but he had a resort of his own prepared.

"Hah, I am a kid after all. But aren\'t you being too smug for being braver than a kid, lady White? That\'s quite a bullying character you got there."

Emma white went red in the face at Enma\'s reply. This kid was getting on her nerves now.

\'I am sure Lord Sorias will not fault me if I make Enma disappear. I can even pin all the blame for this outing on him and get away for free.\'

Emma\'s thoughts had taken a truly bad turn of events and Enma shivered at feeling her aura. Emma could be vicious when she wanted to be.

"E-Elysia, s-save me, please. I don\'t want to die-"

Enma cried out as he looked around for the Dirac lady. But she was nowhere to be found. Somehow, Elysia had managed to disappear in the shortest amount possible.

The pair who had been left behind was shocked in silence. They looked around for Elysia but she was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did she go? And how did she manage to duke us so badly?"

Enma broke out into cold sweat as soon as he realized that his only source of safety had been swept from under his feet. Just how did Elysia manage to disappear this perfectly?

"Nevermind that. The fact that we did not feel her leaving our side means that our bond was broken. We should brace ourselves now."

Enma was pale already but he went ash white at hearing Emma\'s words. He suddenly realized the gravity of the danger he was in.

"Is it too late to run away now? I don\'t think I am going to survive today."

Enma gulped down his nervousness as he looked over his shoulder. Now that Elysia was no longer there, Enma was afraid that Sorias would emerge from his shadows to drag him for punishment.

Enma was about to escape right at that moment when he felt all the air being pushed out of his lungs.

Sorias was watching Enma with narrowed eyes and Enma flinched. He suddenly realized that he had made a grave mistake by coming out.

"Enma, Emma, what are you both doing here? I remember asking you to look after Elysia. So, where is she?"

Sorias\'s voice sounded like death reincarnated. Enma felt his soul leave his body as soon as he heard Enma\'s voice. He had a lot to say about Elysia and why he was out here right now but nothing escaped his lips.

Enma had been rendered mute by Sorias\'s aura and he regretted ever being alive right now.

"We\'re sorry Sorias but Lady Elysia threatened both myself and Enma with her safety so we had to let her out. But she somehow managed to escape our notice as soon as we stepped in here."

\'Emma, I will never say anything bad about you again. You are my savior for life.\'

Enma\'s brain was in the middle of a breakdown but he managed to gather himself enough to agree with what Emma was saying.

He did not remember who he was or where he was, but he did remember that he needed to agree with Emma if he wanted to live.

"I see. So Elysia managed to duke you both as well. My sister is getting better and better at getting her way by the day. I guess I should have seen it coming when she first said that she wanted to come to the crime scene."

Enma was so relieved that Lucas Dirac was not blaming them for Elysia getting out.

On contrary, he was quite relieved to see that Lucas showed no intention of harming him or Emma. Years of stress have been taken off Enma\'s soul all of a sudden.

"Lucas, you expected to see this happen, right? So I also hope you managed to take precautions against Elysia, right?"

Sorias sounded pissed but he turned his ire toward Lucas who looked confident. Seeing him this confident also made Enma sigh in relief.

"I asked my shadow puppets to cover this area before we came here so Elysia should be found pretty soon. Adam and Eve as also out there looking for clues so I am sure they will be able to sense Elysia as well."

Sorias did not look relieved but he did look like he was backing off a little. Hearing both Adam and Eve\'s names put his feelings of worry to rest.

If there were people on this earth who could keep up with Elysia then it was them both.

"We are safe."

Enma sighed in relief as all the tension left his body. But he tensed back up when Lucas Dirac\'s shadow fell on his shoulder.

"Just because Elysia is safe does not mean I am not going to punish you both for letting her come out here. So don\'t expect gentle treatment from me."

Silent tears fell from Enma\'s eyes as soon as he heard Lucas Dirac\'s words. He knew that this was the end for real.

Today was shaping up to be an emotional roller coaster for him with all these ups and downs and this day was far from over.

\'Once I get my hands on that Elysia, I will make sure to strangle her and then tie her up. She will not be able to leave her room.\'

Things will not happen like this at all. Even Enma knew that he would not be able to touch Elysia once she was back home but nothing was stopping him from fantasizing about it.

"Adam, is something wrong? Why did you stop all of a sudden?"

Eve asked as she watched Adam make a sudden U-turn while scouting the forest. It was so sudden that Eve all but fell when she tried to keep up with him.

"Elysia is here. I am going to her now."

Adam\'s voice was so matter-of-fact that Eve did not even doubt him. If he said that Elysia was here, then she must be here.

Eve tried to feel surprised to hear that Elysia had disobeyed everyone and come here anyway but it had been expected of her by now.

Elysia had an unhealthy obsession with being in troublesome places at the wrong times. Eve was right on Adam\'s trail when she was disrupted.

She dodged the log of wood that Adam\'s angry fist had sent flying and her temper rose. She was ready to chew out Adam for attacking her out of the blue when she stopped.

Adam\'s complexion did not look right which meant that he had bad news for her. Eve really wanted to plug her ears and stop hearing him.

"Shit, I lost her. Why does this keep happening."

Adam whined as he looked at the forest. It stood in front of them innocently but that was where Elysia had last been sensed by Adam.

​ "Idiot, stop spacing out and hurry up. If you are not able to sense Elysia now then that means something happened. We should hurry up to her side."

Adam snapped into motion at Eve\'s scolding voice. Her rationality managed to snap him into action.

They were not that deep into the forest when a monster managed to take them by surprise.

Adam tried to deal with him with his sword but his weapon did not manage to make a dent in the monster. His magic was also having a similar effect which indicated that this monster was not normal.

"Eve, does your magic work on these monsters?"

Adam asked as he enhanced his strength and his hand turned into a claw. No matter how much the monster struggles, it could not hold on in front of a dragon.

"My magic doesn\'t work either. These monsters are imbued with the power of light. How is that possible?"

Everything was weird indeed. This smelled like a trap.
