Chapter 101: 95. Warlock of curses
Marco was very pissed at Dexter. At the end, the poison was what killed the comodo dragon.
'A level 20 huh. It was nowhere compared to the strength of that eagle. I think flying creatures are the worst now.' Dexter thought.
He turned as he felt someone tap him.
"Marco doesn't seem happy. I think he broke a bone." Hannah said and Dexter looked at Marco whose left arm was limp and was bleeding from his head.
"He deserves it. He almost killed me too. Told me to hunt a weak creature that turned out to be one even more powerful than this one." Dexter said and Hannah looked at Marco in shock.
"That's very bad." Hannah shot Marco a death glare.
"So what are we going to do about the hunter situation?" Hannah asked worriedly. "Since he is coming for you, I think you should be more careful."
"Yeah, I've already got a plan. The goal is to find out who controls him." Dexter smirked as they went back to camp.
...
At the external regions of the city, there was a tall mountain whose peak couldn't even be reached by any of the skyscrapers in the city.
There was a cave at the top of the mountain and three people wearing red cloaks flew towards it.... without wings.
They landed inside the cave and torches were lit up at the sides of the path which illuminated the place.
At the end of the path was a large room with a round, white and black table in the middle which already had four people sitted around it.
The surroundings had magical lights on the ceilings which floated around and there were finally two people behind each person wearing their respective colour of cloaks.
"We should have just done this at my place, here gives too much cringey good vibes." A brown-skinned man with a long beard, in a black cloak said.
Bard, the leader of the coven of warlocks 'Shadow song', and also a quite a good singer. He had a deep voice and his eyes were deep, making one seem like they were looking into a pool of wisdom.
"Well, your place gives off too much cringey bad vibes." A beautiful, fair-skinned woman with short black hair said.
She wore a white white cloak and so did the two individuals behind her who had their hoods on. Carina, the leader of witch coven 'Starfall siblings' which is an only-female witch coven.
"Both of you should just stop arguing all the time." A woman wearing a silver coat said in a calm tone and Bard and Carine quieted down.
Her hair was strangely silver and very long. She had a mature charm around her and she just closed her eyes. Veneta was the leader of the 'moonlit sirens' coven, which was also an only-female coven.
The last person was a man who had short Grey hair. His eyes were silver coloured and it was as if there was an ocean inside his eyes.
He just kept quiet and waited for who they expected.
He wore a Grey cloak.
Soon, three people in red cloaks walked into the room. The person in front put down her cloak and let her long, straight white hair flow down.
She had smooth white skin and was extremely beautiful. If the people sitting around the table hadn't seen her multiple times, they would be shocked by her ethereal beauty.
Lisa, leader of the 'Phoenix fire syndicate'.
"You're late." Bard, the brown-skinned man said while stroking his full beard.
"Pardon me." She said with a beautiful smile.
"Have a seat, Lisa." Carina, woman in a white cloak said with a smile and Lisa sat down.
"You all called an emergency meeting?" Lisa asked them and Bard nodded.
"We haven't had a meeting since the prophesy began." Lisa said.
"Yeah, the snow vampire coven is threatening us so we had to have this meeting." The man with a full beard, Bard, said.
"Snow coven? What do they want?" Lisa asked with a frown.
Carine sighed as she said, "They managed to capture the vampire hunter. One of my witches was summoned to their lair--"
"Wait, I thought we agreed that vampire problems were vampire problems. We have our own problems." Bard cut in her words.
"Yes but--"
"How did they even contact your people?" Silver haired Veneta said with furrowed brows.
"Just wait and listen." Carina said, looking at all of them with a death glare.
All of them kept quiet under her gaze. They wouldn't want to make her angry in her own house.
"As I was saying, we used a curse-search spell on the vampire since one of snow's vampires told us about the hunter being possessed."
"And indeed he was being controlled by a warlock, a powerful one." Carina shot a glare at the two warlocks sitting at the table.
"Don't look at me, you know I don't specialize in possession or curses." Bard said as he folded his arms.
Carina and the others then looked at the man with Grey hair who looked as if he was in deep thought.
"Asher, hello!" Carina snapped her fingers and he looked up to them, his silver-like eyes glimmered as lights from the ceiling reflected.
Asher was the leader of the 'Astral Dreamweavers', a powerful warlock coven, which was only second to the Phoenix fire syndicate.
"It wasn't me too. But I have a suspicion." He closed his eyes and the others looked at him in anticipation.
They all knew their strengths and weaknesses and none of them practiced curse and possession magic.
"Alexander Ani Corvinus." Asher said and the rest of them looked at him in shock.
"No, we sealed him away in hell's tomb. He can't possibly do anything from there." Bard was extremely shocked.
Lisa was extremely angry as she heard that name. Images of when Alexander terrorized the world flashed over and over in her head.
"Alexander. He did specialize in curse and possession magic. It's not possible that one of his coven members are alive because we severed their link from him which will kill them all." Lisa said in an annoyed tone.
*Bang!*
"Alexander, that bastard!!" Bard slammed his fist on the table.
"We're going to be in trouble if bloodborn's or Drake's vampires finds out about this. We should have killed him." Carina sighed tiredly.
"Why didn't you kill him when you had the chance?" Bard asked as he very curious why.
"Well..." Carina looked at the silver haired Veneta who was extremely angry right now.
