CHAPTER HUNDRED AND ONE“You should have left when you had the chance!” The wolf guard growled at him, and without warning, he attacked, spinning his spear while he took a combat stance.Elias charged as well, and as soon as the wolf guard attempted a strike at him with his spear, he lowered his height and sank his foot into his belly.While the guard was still staggering backward, Elias ran at him, delivering kicks that sent him thudding to the ground.He grabbed his spear, and then he pierced it into his belly, draining his vitality at once.At that moment, the other guard charged to avenge the death of his cohort.As he ran, he threw his spear at Elias , aiming for his chest.But he missed, and as soon as Elias had regained his balance after dodging the spear, he growled at him, grabbing the other spear plunged into the first guard.“You shouldn’t have done that.” He snarled, withdrawing the dagger with a little effort.He held onto it with a tight grip right in the middle, allo

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND THREELewis gasped, and believing that there were still more wolf men around, he ran out of the cave before Elias , but he was forced to stop, having nowhere in mind to go.As soon as he heard the sound of Elias’s feet walking out of the cave, he turned to look at him, his eyes sparking with curiosity.“I don’t know where we are going.”“This way.” Elias pointed, and together with the boy, he left for the first mountain.When they finally arrived, he looked up at the mountain, and then he began to march toward it, leaving the boy behind.“Are you going to climb that mountain?” Lewis asked, unable to keep the thought to himself.Elias nodded without looking back, increasing his pace.Lewis gasped, and then he took three steps forward, looking up at the high mountain.“How are you even going to climb up there? that’s way too high!” His voice was laced with concern, and slowly, he returned them to Elias , demanding an answer.Elias chuckled softly, and then he to

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FIVEElias was about to walk to a man he saw dishing out instructions when one of the guards stopped him, pushing his chest.“Do you wish for death?” The guard blurted, looking down at him.“Leave this place before I tell my men to beat you up. You are already looking like you were manhandled. But trust me, I am going to make sure that you get a worse experience.”Elias nodded, a wry smile all over his face.“I was really hoping that this was not going to be as hard as you are making it to be. You are the one who wishes for death.”Laughter erupted into the air, especially from the other guards who heard what he said.Some of the road users who seemed to be hopeful that he was going to be able to help with the situation instantly lost faith in him even without giving him a chance.But that didn’t seem to bother him.Elias took a deep breath, and then he cleared his throat, looking the guard in the eyes.“I have a sick child who needs me. Could you be kind enough t

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND SEVENElias looked down at the boy, and then he turned to look at Tonia.The moment he saw that Tony was telling the truth, he let go of the Doctor at once and hurried to the bed. “Tonia? Can you hear me?” He called out to the girl, watching as she groaned, her eyes flickering.She looked at Elias, and then at the Doctor.“Where am I?” She asked, her voice low and burdened.She couldn’t see her brother because he was standing right behind Elias, covered by his tall frame.“You are in a hospital, Tonia.” The Doctor finally broke the silence, looking her in the eyes.“Hospital?”“Yes, Tonia. You were sick, but now you are better.” The Doctor spoke calmly, looking at the teenage girl with a smile all over his face.Tonia didn’t seem to be wary of the Doctor just like she was wary of Elias.She looked at the latter, and then she cleared her throat without taking her eyes off him.“Who is he?” She asked, pointing at Elias.“He is our father.” Tony appeared from behind

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND NINE Talia grunted loudly, her body shaking violently.“Talia!” Elias gasped, realizing that she had been shot at.He held onto her, and soon the blood from the gunshot at her back touched his hands, causing him to gently bring her down.Talia’s breath was shaky, her heart pumping blood sporadically like it was its last.“I don’t want to die.” She muttered, gagging the blood that dripped from her mouth.She had tears in her eyes, her body falling to the ground.“Stay with me..” Elias grunted, holding her still.He went down on one knee, and then he looked around, in search of the shooter.He gently dropped her to the ground, her arms sprawling all over the ground.“Who did this?” Elias looked around again, scouring all over the premises in search of the assailant.But he couldn’t see anyone, and soon, Tony alighted from the car, staring at his mother.“Go back into the car, Tony!” Elias ordered, but the boy was too flustered to heed to his words, staring at his m
