Chapter 240 Chapter 240 878 % 23 Ottai led them to Frostfalls royal residence .
They entered the quiet chamber where Emeriel lay on the bed , face pale and eyes closed .
Her breathing too faint .
Grand King Daemonikai sat beside her , his hand clasped around hers .
He didnt react when Ottai announced their arrival or when they entered the room .
Em ? Aekeira ran to her sisters side , taking her other hand .
Em please , open your eyes , she sobbed .
Please… its me , Aekeira .
Were waiting on Faiwick .
Hes searching for the antidote , Ottais voice was low as he explained .
The poison used is quite rare and difficult to obtain .
So far , every healer weve checked dont have the kaizan root needed for the antidote .
Kaizan roots ? Vladyas brows drew together .
Those are almost impossible to come by .
Ottai nodded grimly .
Its not a Urekai poison , its mage poison .
His voice was tense , uneasy .
If someone sold it here , its likely they sold the antidote too .
Faiwick is checking with the remaining herbalists and the black market .
Vladyas brows creased further .
And if its not found ? Ottai hesitated , eyes dropping to the floor .
We wait for Faiwick .
Throughout , Daemonikai said nothing .
His face was stone , eyes never leaving Emeriel .
Vladya moved closer , standing behind the grand king .
And the person responsible have they been found ? he spoke quietly but with steel in his voice .
No trace , no trail , nothing , Ottai couldnt hide his frustration .
All our men are out there searching- The door opened , and a guards head poked in .
The healer has returned .
The grand king was on his feet instantly .
Faiwick entered , flanked by soldiers .
How did it go ? Daemonikai demanded .
Wheres the antidote ? The healers face crumpled .
We found nothing , Your Grace .
We scoured every abode , every herb stand by the rivers .
He shook his head , in visible despair .
We questioned every herbalist , every vendor .
There is no kaizan root here .
Aekeira burst into tears , her shoulders shaking as she clutched Emeriels other hand .
What do you mean you couldnt find anything ? Daemonika snarled , his back going ramrod straight .
Faiwicks shoulders slumped , his face ashen .
I am s sorry , Your Grace .
W we searched everywhere .
A tense silence filled the room .
The grand king , he looked … absolutely murderous .
Shit .
We can still send a team to the mages .
Ottai was quick to add , desperate to curb whatever storm clouds were building in him .
They might have the roots .
Thats a weeks journey at best .
Vladya countered , staring at Emeriels pale , still body .
Daemonikais hands balled into tight fists , speaking through gritted teeth .
How long does she have ? 11:00 Tue , Feb 11 u B Chapter 240 Ottai shifted , uncomfortable .
Two days , Your Grace , Faiwick answered for him .
Three at most .
They all looked at him .
ON 78 % 23 The p poison destroys from the inside , little by little , The healer explained , nervously .
Every passing moment … it eats away at her organs .
By the third day … there will be nothing left .
Grand King Daemonikai threw his head back and ROARED .
A thunderous bellow that echoed through the walls , the building the entire fortress … shaking the very stone beneath their feet .
And , as if that wasnt enough , he pumped out heavy bursts of pheromones .
Spreading like wildfire , the compulsions strength dropped every common male to their knees .
Heads bowed , hands behind their back .
The pressure so strong , Ottai went rigid … just like Vladya .
Unable to fight the strength of his pheromones , they bared their throat too , submitting to his dominance .
Calm down , D Daemon , please … Vladya said in a raspy voice Another roar ripped from the grand kings throat , even louder and more intense than the first .
The stench of urine rose in the air .
Soldiers fell to the floor rolling on their bellies .
I will destroy whoever is responsible for this , Daemonikais eyes blazed , green and yellow .
I will find them , and I will make them pay .
Vladya , with visible effort , forced his legs to move .
He was struggling , and Ottai could only imagine the turmoil those pheromones were wreaking on his half mad beast .
Your Grace , Vladyas voice was strained , please control it .
Dont lose control in here .
Please think of Emeriel .
Ottai , breathing through the pulsing pain in his skull , forced himself closer as well .
Ill prepare the men for the journey to Mysticaria , Your Grace .
We will ride all night and day , without stopping , without resting , until we reach the mages .
We will return with the antidote .
By then , her grave will be cold .
Daemonikai glared at him , sneering .
Everywhere went as quiet as a tomb .
Get out , all of you ! he barked , his body practically vibrating with rage , Rising to their feets , the healer and soldiers scrambled out , leaving only the grand rulers and a sobbing Ackeira in the room Daemonikai gripped his head , face hardened, stomping from one end to another like a caged bull- It had been so long since Ottai saw him lose his ever present control like this .
The sight was jarring .
And botherline terrifying .
What if he went feral again ? Daemonikai stopped , and glared at the bed .
Some of the wildness left his eyes .
Walking to her , he bent over , unwraping the dressing around Emeriels wound .
Its turning green .
He said gravely , examining the infected flesh Its spreading fast .
she doesnt have a week .
Daemon- Ottai began .
11:00 Tue , Feb 11 u G Chapter 240 This poison needs to be removed .
His tone demanded no argument .
Too dangerous , Vladya cut in .
Please , think this through .
Daemonikai looked at him , his eyes narrowed .
I havent said anything yet .
I know what youre thinking , Vladya insisted .
Dont do it .
冷 : 78 % The yellow in his eyes receded completely , and even his stance relaxed .
All the tension drained from him in a second .
What was going on ? Daemonikai straightened , and for the first time that evening , he faced his oldest friend .
Vladyas lips curved into a faint smile .
Hey , old man .
How have you been ? The hard lines on the grand kings face eased .
Stepping away from the bed , he walked to Vladya , eyes sweeping over him , taking in every detail .
He paused at his friends paw like hand .
Vladya self consciously flexed his clawed hand .
Yeah , its- His eyes fell on Daemonikais own arm , where the trails of blackened blood were still visible .
Daemon … Vladyas tone held a hint of concern .
Daemonikai pulled him into a bone crushing hug .
Vladya returned it , squeezing back with equal force .
Youve come so far , the grand king stated .
Thank you for fighting so hard .
Vladya let out a rough chuckle .
I could say the same for you , he muttered .
Who else but you would journey to the spirit world and come back ? A few have , Daemonikai grunted .
You live a dangerous life , old man , Vladya cleared his throat , pulling back slightly .
It gladdens me more than you know to see you here .
Daemonikai smirked , arching a brow .
Whos the sap now ? I know why youre suddenly being all chatty , Vladyas tone sobered .
Youre planning to use that solution on Emeriel , arent you ? A beat of silence passed , charged and heavy .
Vladya scowled .
Dont do it .
The grand king cocked his head to the side .
You have a better idea ? I dont , Vladyas mouth tightened .
But I dont want to watch you suffer through that .
His brows shot up .
Youre kidding , right ? Then let me do it .
Shes my woman , Daemonikai growled possessively .
Mine .
I do it .
Daemon , would you- Dont Daemon me .
I will do this .
He stated , And after this , I will confront Zaiper .
