Upon receiving that list that contained over 20 names, Viktoria immediately recognized some of them. "We have some of those ingredients, but they are in my family's old headquarters."

"Uh?" Lothur still didn't know that they had abandoned such a location.

Viktoria explained. "After that day, we left that area. There seems to be a negative aura there, and we are afraid of more spectres appearing there.

After that battle, we left the area without taking everything around there."

"I see..." Lothur then said. "No problem. I will go over there and clean up the area later. After that, the Frost family can even return to live there."

"That..." She hesitated and then plucked up the courage to say. "Lothur, I merged the Frost family with the Ritter family. When our family headquarters is ready, I was thinking of taking them there."

Hearing this, Lothur opened his eyes more significantly, looking at his wife in silence.

'Who would know, huh? From son-in-law to the leader of the family... I didn't see that coming.' He thought, remembering how low his status was months ago, how he had left the family and started living on his own.

But now, this family he once belonged to was part of his own organization...

Lothur couldn't help but contemplate this great irony by looking at Mabel.

'This woman will curse me when she finds out about this.' He bitterly smiled.

"I see. It makes sense that you would do that." He commented, feeling there was no point in preventing this from going further.

"Well, if that's the case, let's take care of Annaliese first. Without those resources, I can't do anything for your mother, so I'll have to wait until I have at least the first three on the list." He said as he walked to the side of the bed where Annaliese was lying.

She wore a white dress, which made her look less pale.

But her dehydrated, whitened lips did not hide her internal situation, where she was in constant pain in her nightmares.

Black Flames!

Suddenly, Lothur placed one of his hands above Annaliese's forehead, and black flames appeared on his fingertips.

He placed his fingers against the top of Annaliese's head and then muttered.

ƥαṇdαs ηθνε|·ƈθm "Wake up!"

The dark flames oozed inside her body, quickly reaching her most important mental structures, which were making it impossible for her to leave her nightmare.

In her nightmare, she saw and saw, again and again, different ways of losing her child. Since she had lost consciousness days ago, she had been experiencing the painful sensation of seeing her child with Lothur dying.

In some nightmares, she simply lost the baby in her belly. In others, he was born and died soon after, always tragically and prematurely.

Each time she survived whatever calamities were upon them, always standing back to see or feel her lifeless little one.

It was eating her up from the inside out!

But just as she was going through this torturous experience again, her nightmare's surroundings began to disappear, as black flames covered everything there.

"Wake up!"

This voice repeatedly came up in her mind, little by little increase in volume.

At first, she paid no attention to it, too disoriented for that.

But each time the sound increased, she slowly left her disorientation to pay attention to that sound.

"Wake up!"ραпdαs `nᴏνɐ| сom

Hearing it almost so loud that she would have to bring her hands to her ears, Annaliese suddenly opened her eyes, breathing a little agitatedly and breaking into a cold sweat.

"Lothur!"

That was her first word as she lifted the top of her and shouted.

Viktoria and Elke saw how quickly Lothur had made Annaliese wake up and took steps backward, impressed.

Lothur looked at this woman and sat down beside her on that bed, still with one of his hands on her head. "Anna, I am here." He said in a low voice next to one of her ears.

Hearing her man's voice once again, she looked back and saw one of the sides of his face, feeling much less bad because he was there.

"Lothur... Lothur..." Tears dripped from her eyes, but she couldn't help but think of the baby she would have with him.

"Breathe, Anna. Breathe." He said, making her follow his orders. "We will deal with anything. Now you must breathe calmly and then eat something."

She continued to cry so badly that her whole body was shaking.

But strangely, her body did as commanded, and as she breathed, her agitation gradually subsided.

Lothur took some fruits from his spatial ring and said. "Eat."

She unconsciously did so while trying to tell him everything that had happened.

"Lothur... I... I killed our little baby... I put myself at risk, and he was the victim." She said as she ate, feeling a tightness in her heart that could not compare to anything in this world.

"It's not your fault, Anna. You were facing evil creatures. You were trying to save your family. That's a noble gesture!"

They would talk about this for the next few minutes while Annaliese regained some of her strength by eating, and they would talk about what had happened.

Viktoria and Elke would try to comfort Annaliese along with Lothur until a few minutes after her awakening, she was less inconsolable, with the tears on her face slowly drying up.

"What about father? What about mother?" She looked at the surroundings and worried about them.

"Our mother will be fine. Lothur just needs a few resources, and he will get her out of danger." Viktoria said, leaving to discuss the details with her sister when she was better.

But she couldn't hide the truth about their father...

"As for our father, unfortunately, we couldn't get the damned spectre out of him, Anna." Viktoria lowered her face, curving her lips downward as her eyes filled with tears.

Hearing that, Annaliese felt her heart leap in her chest and begin to beat harder.

"It can't be..."

They would wail together for a few more moments until Lothur stood up from the bed where Annaliese still lay and said.

"Anna, your situation is stable now. I would suggest you eat well and rest. But now I intend to go to your family's estate to solve the problem there.

It may be important for you to accompany me to face the place and overcome the problem. I intend to finish off the creature inside your father's body and bring his body back for you to prepare your farewell."

Viktoria and Annaliese looked at Lothur and immediately agreed that they wanted to participate.

Even though they were hurt by everything that had happened, they wanted to at least see the end of that damned spectre and get their father's body back!
