Rejected By My Mate novel Chapter 70

Alice's POV

It’s been 3 days since the demons took Angelo. For the past 3 days, we focused on strengthening our fighting skills and powers. At night, I sneak out to practice on how to use the power of the orbs of life and death inside me. I also learned a new skill after I successfully combined the orbs and the white diamond.

Also, I already unleashed Azrael’s hidden power and taught him how to use his powerful magic appropriately since it's new to him. Azrael’s power is to summon the high-ranking spirit beast that was sealed away by the councils because of its invincible power, including the Divine Wolf or also known as the Holy Emperor—the strongest among the Spirit Gods. Yesterday, Azrael accidentally summoned the Divine Wolf, and he was having a hard time taming it until he successfully bonded with the spirit when Azrael transformed into his full wolf form. It looks like the divine wolf and Azrael’s wolf, Khael, were acquaintances.

“When will Willow wake up? The war has now begun.” Val uttered while staring at the unconscious Willow and let out a sigh.

“She will wake up soon.” I said and closed my eyes as I leaned my back on the chair. I’m not trying to sleep, but to use my divine eyes to see through the entire magic realm. The four walls are being attacked by goblins and monsters summoned by the demons. They’ve been attacking the walls nonstop, and it looks like the monsters regenerate themselves after being heavily injured by the attack of magic users and other angel warriors. I could feel everyone’s fear, but this war was inevitable as well as death.

As I watch the scene in my head, it helps me analyze an alternative way to defeat the enemies, especially Yael and Samael. But I almost gasped when all the dead rose from its gravestone. Then an image flashed in my head. It was Yael and Angelo while combining their powers. So Yael successfully controlled Angelo. Well, let’s see how long he could be able to control Angelo.

There were 200 thousand walking dead in a body of skeleton marching towards the four walls separately, 50 thousand by batch. The problem was, all the walking dead used magic that normal magic users could hardly defeat because of the demon’s soul that Yael summoned from the underworld into the skeleton body of the undead. He really put a lot of effort into executing his plans.

But Yael underestimated me and my sister’s abilities. He’s cautious, but it’s not enough to defeat us because we are invincible. I grinned. How long could Yael be able to control my little brother? That’s a wrong move from his side. Did Yael know how to play turning tables? I doubt that.

I fluttered my eyes open and four sets of eyes welcomed me. “Alice? Are you okay?” Xandra asked.

“We’ve been calling you multiple times, but it seems like you are concentrating on something. What do you see?” Demonise said while leaning on the wall with her arms crossed over her chest. I let out a sighed while glancing at Willow.

“The undead are marching towards the four walls. As I estimated, they will arrive a few hours from now, probably within 48 hours.” I said.

“They must’ve already controlled Angelo,” Val uttered.

I hummed, “Don’t worry, I already have a plan to undo the spell that Yael used to control Angelo’s brain. Let’s play turning tables.” I said while smirking. They grinned and nodded.

“Tsk. I know how cautious you are, Alice. I’m not even surprised at all. How did I forget you are the Goddess of Change?” Damona said while rolling her eyes. We all laughed at her.

“Well, let me enlighten you with my plan on how to play turning tables since the enemies outnumbered us.” I said, and they nodded with excitement.

We all sat on the long sofa, and I told them everything about my plans. We are all grinning after discussing my plans.

“This made me so excited!” Val and Xandra exclaimed.

“It will be so much fun if Willow wakes up now.” Damona uttered and sighed.

I notice Demonise intense stares at me. “I know there’s something you hide from us, Alice. But I couldn’t pinpoint what that is,” she said, and all my sisters looked at me, waiting for my answer.

I let out a sigh, “Yeah, you’re right, Dem. But I couldn’t tell you yet until our mission finished. I’m sorry,” they looked at each other and then smiled at me.

“We understand, Alice. Promise you’ll tell us after this war?” they said in unison and I nodded while smiling.

A knock on the door interrupted us. Based on the aura, I know it’s Azrael, Sabrina and the others. They came in and greeted us. I looked at their appearance and smiled. They were wearing their combat attire.

“Alice, we are ready.” They said in unison. I nodded and stood up.

“Okay, everyone, there are four batches of 50 thousand undead marching towards the four walls. They will arrive in about 48 hours from now. But those undead use magic.” I said and opened my palm to show them an image of the thousands of undead. They gasped and eyes widened.

“Zombies?” they all mumbled.

“Yep, they are zombies, but on another level because each body has a soul of demons.” I said.

“What?! That’s scary!” Michelle and Cybelle both uttered.

“The enemy outnumbered us. How could we be able to fight all of them? There are still a lot of goblins and monsters outside attacking the walls.” Lucia said while the others deep in thought.

“Demons are really a pain in the ass. I hope they didn’t hurt Angelo.” Sabrina uttered while clenching her fist.

“Don’t worry, Sabrina. Angelo is fine.” I said, and she nodded. “By the way, I have some changes in the plan.” I added.

“What is it?” they asked with a serious expression. I snap my fingers and show our discussion earlier on their minds.

Afterward, they nodded while grinning. “That’s a good plan, Alice.” Sabrina uttered, and I gave her a small smile.

As planned, Sabrina, Lucia, and Cyn will go to the Western Land. Xandra, Cybelle, and Michelle in Northern Land. Elaine, Stephen, and other angels in Eastern Land. Damona and Demonise will attack the Demon hideout in the southeast border and fight the Goblin Lord. While Val, Azrael and I will wait outside the cave and wait for Samael, Yael and the Dark Magna Trio to come out.

Since Willow was still unconscious, she’ll remain in Central City. Once she’ll wake up, she’s in charge of the safety of all the angels and other magic users who couldn’t fight.

“Let’s go! We better get this done as soon as possible!” Damona yelled and everyone chanted, “Yeah! Let’s do this!”

“Everyone, please don’t die,” I uttered while staring at them one by one. They all nodded and smiled. Sabrina walked towards me and wrapped her arms around me. “Alice, I know how powerful you are. But… I’m still nervous about your safety. There’s no doubt our enemies are powerful, too. Please don’t get killed, Alice. I know we will win this war.” she said. I hummed and tapped her back.

“Sabrina, this war was inevitable as well as death,” I said as we released the hug. I looked at everyone and continued, “You cannot guarantee your own safety, but you can always avoid death if you take precautions around you. As long as you trust your capabilities, just move forward but don’t let your guard down.” They all smiled, and the girls hugged me.

“Everyone, just trust us and have faith in us.” Val said and everyone hummed.

“Sabrina, may I talk to you for a minute?” I asked. She nodded, and we got out of the room into the quiet hallway.

“What is it, Alice?”

“Sabrina, I want you to find something in the Western Land.” I said.

“Sure. And that is?” she asked.

“A powerful weapon that hid in the dungeon of Dalham Village.” I said and her eyes sparkled.
