Chapter 1014 - DEJA VU

"Leave now before I send you back to Tartarus," he spoke threateningly to his fellow devil when Belphegor decided it was the right time to defy the morning star.

It took them a few seconds longer while glaring warnings at each other through their livid eyes, until Belphegor finally relented and let Lucifer have his way.

"As you wish…" Belphegor stood up and bent his body slightly to give Lucifer a dramatic bow. "You can have the body and I will play with her soul."

After saying that, the sloth disappeared and turned into a white smoke that was blown away by the wind in the next second. No one knew where he would end up going, but for sure, he wouldn't join the five devils to help the creature under the frozen river.

The sloth was too lazy to deal with such a thing, as he would rather chose to find some other way to entertain himself.

And now, it was only the two of them, Serefina and Lucifer, along with the three unconscious guardian angels and the carcasses of the dead shifters.

This was not a pleasant sight to see, but Serefina could care less about her surroundings when she had to face the wrath of the devil.

==============

One of the minotaurs stabbed a blade into one of the snake heads of the hydra, as the other shifters jumped on to the rest of its body and started to dig their claws and canines in, ripping off a few chunks of its flesh.

Meanwhile, the faes fluttered their wings and tried to distract the other heads of the hydra, creating opportunity for the remaining shifters to attack them.

Four of the dragon beasts had died, after enduring a venomous bite from the hydra's fangs and now, only five of them were left, fighting five heads of the hydra, one against each.

This battle seemed to never end, because one moment one of the hydra's heads was being cut off, in the next second, another head would appear from its body, which was deep in the river.

Thus, the only chance that they had was to stop its movement, without cutting its heads anymore, until they could figure out another way to deal with it. Or until the phoenix came…

However, there was no sign of that mythical creature making an appearance so soon.

On the ground, the witches and the wizards were trying to cast their curses and immobilize this magnificent creature with no avail.

Screams and snarls pierced through the heavy atmosphere, as blood splattered all over the place and dead bodies couldn't be counted anymore.

If this continued for a considerable time, no matter how many troops they brought, they would end up dead by the end of this battle.

"WHY CAN'T WE KILL THIS F*CKING MONSTER!?" One of the minotaurs roared in anger, wrath ravaged his being and made him look more feral than ever, as he hammered the hydra's head with a sledgehammer in his hand nonstop.

Yet, no one answered him, as they were too busy to keep their bodies intact and dodge the attacks from the other heads of the hydra.

The snake heads of hydra opened their mouths and showed their rows of sharp teeth. The power from the beasts raged, holding them down and tried to not cut them, so it wouldn't grow another head which was akin to stopping a tornado with bare hands. In simpler words; nearly impossible.

It would have been easier if they could just cut its head one by one, it would make their efforts pay off to see those ugly heads roll on the ground, yet the fact was not that simple, since this creature couldn't be killed that way.

Another roar pierced through the sky, when one more dragon beast fell to the ground with a shrill and then laid still. Dead.

"Where is the phoenix!?" Leon became even more anxious after seeing the progress of this battle. It didn't look very good to be honest…

"Where is Serefina?" the water dragon shifter who had been watching his kind die one by one could only grit his teeth, yet for some reason he didn't shift into his beast and join the battle.

Now this small group were a few yards away from the frozen river, a good distance to observe the battle, but safe enough to not get affected by it.

"She will come," the candlemaiden said in a low voice.

"You are very positive for someone, who didn't trust the witch," Abby sneered. She was still holding Bree in her lap with Jean trying to clean up the little girl's wounds. Thanks to the water dragon shifter, now the little girl looked a little bit better and the wounds were not as scary as earlier.

"I don't trust her, but I know she will come." The candlemaiden stood beside the dragon shifter. "She will not risk a situation like this to make a false promise."

If there was one thing that Christal was sure about Serefina, then it was her priority to keep him safe. That particular person… she would do everything to keep him alive and for that, they needed to win this war.

==============

Dejavu was that uncanny sensation that you have already experienced something, even when you knew you never had. Experts generally state this phenomenon was probably related to memory in some way. So, if you have felt déjà vu, you might have experienced a similar event before. You just can't remember it.

And that was exactly what Hope felt right now when she tried to open her eyes and found her being surrounded by blue flames, the heat licked her skin and made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Fire was everywhere, its blue flames rolled up to the dark sky, emitting white smoke that made her feel hard even to breath.

Hope had experienced it before. She had seen this kind of scene when she was looking at the stone in the library.

Thus, when she finally opened her eyes and found her body and Lilac's were lying down not too far from her, she was not surprised.

Just like what she had remembered, she was in Raine's body now.
