Chapter 393 The Plan Was Too Deep
"So where were you all this time?" she could not help but ask as she stretched her muscles that hurt like hell.
She had not reacted so far but she was drained and tired yet she was worried why Anne was not back! She must have come back once she should have helped Declan in running away.
"Aah, that.. Since you were sealed, I was not able to use your powers freely. But when you broke the seal, I got hit by all the powers at once that put me in an unconscious state until I was able to absorb all the powers and take the form of a human." he scratched the back of his neck as he looked at her awkwardly.
He felt a bit embarrassment as he looked at himself,
"My body should have been around your age. But i think when i tried to rush things over to come here to save you, the change did not go well and i got the shape of a kid." he touched his own cheeks and then pulled his skin with a sigh.
Hazel felt amused. The man or the demon must be sulking over his form. That made her feel better.
She nodded her head as she started walking.

"No! You are a witch. But your father is a demon, when your mother had been pregnant, it would have left some effect on the blood of the demon in her womb." huh? Her brows furrowed as she looked at the young boy back.
"What did that even mean?" let the blood!
"Demons mostly did not leave their blood in the womb even when they impregnated the woman. Since they were in their human form, but your father must have made a mistake." he cleared in plain words but his words only confused her further.
"But my mother was married to a witch. I have met him.. Oh wait!" her jaw hit the ground when his word finally sunk in and he laughed.
"Glad that i did not need to explain such things to you." he chuckled when he looked at her embarrassed face, "i have told you that in your last life too but you only have said a cold and nonchalant "oh" at that time.
You look more expressive in this life." the man said with much enthusiasm when she could only nod.
"So! You have been with me in my past too?" her eyes were sparkling with the curiosity of a child while she was staring back at him.
"No! I only met you a few months ago before you died. I was still in a weak state. So I was not able to help you." he looked regretful when he said, "if it was not for giving me a form, you would not have been this week. I was in the middle of forming when you died, so I suffered in that state for a long time. But thanks to your powers, I am here now."
Hazel nodded. Though she did not understand much, she knew that that guardian was a leech on her powers. Without them, he could not even have a form.
He couldn't talk or move around if she died. So, he was saving her to stay alive.
"So.. are you back with Rafael? I have thought that you would not choose him this time." he said with a frown as he followed her. "He is too arrogant and domineering. When you left, he kept tormenting me and did not let me go. He even bosses me around as if i am his slave!" complained the demon.
With his young and chubby face and his innocent looks, he looked like a bullied child who was complaining about his father.
The thought amused Hazel who laughed and shook her head.
"Can you feel the presence of my sister around?" she asked as they had walked quite far but Anne was nowhere to be seen.
"Aah! Of course, I can do so. If you want, I can even tell you when and where Rafael is meeting another girl so that you can catch him red handed and beat him." he said with a laugh as he held her hands, surprising her.

"I don't know. Never felt the need to check on him." he stopped walking while holding her hands, so she had to stop too.
"I will take a drop of blood from you." she nodded her head when he took out a small parchment out of thin air.
It looked like a map of this area.
"You can see anyone walking in the woods just by giving a drop of blood to the map and then closing your eyes and thinking about that person. The stronger your intensity would be, the better you would be able to do that!"
She nodded as his nails grew into the form of a nail and then pierced her soft skin.
The blood fell on the map and she closed her eyes while imagining Anne when the blood started to form a small cobweb and cover every path of the map.
She opened her eyes and stared at the map while licking the blood off her finger. The blood started to spread until it stopped at a point and marked it.
"Your sister is near the lake. Surprisingly, it is not near the camps but in the inner part of the woods which is full of beasts. She was not supposed to be there." he said with a frown as he picked up the map.
"Do you want to go there and follow her?" Was it even a question? She nodded her head and the boy sighed.
"I was only afraid of that question. Do you have any idea, that part of the land is the home of all the demons."
