Tangled By Fate

Chapter 543  A REQUEST

Veronica put her worries aside for now and looked at Felix.

"It's good to see you. Felix. How cyou are here?"

"How could I miss the chance of seeing the Elven Realm?" Felix jokingly replied. "It's good to see you and especially Catherine. I can't believe you revived a dead person."

"I'm delighted that she is alive." Veronica couldn't ask for more.

"So, how was it? Is there any side effect on both of you?" Felix inquired.

Veronica answered, "I haven't felt anything. Since it's a sacred art of Elves, I don't think there should be any bad effect. However, Cathy cannot remember how she died. "The painful memory before her death has been wiped out of her memory. I'm glad that she doesn't remember any of it. Or else, I don't think she would still love Sebastian."

Felix and Ovior exchanged looks. Their thoughts were hidden.

"That is a lovely coincidence," Ovior remarked.

"I say so myself," Veronica agreed. "Did she meet him?"

"Yes, I escorted her to the Human Realm. Sebastian was waiting for her there," Ovior replied. "Veronica, we have something to ask of you."

As he said that, he knelt and bowed, along with Felix.

"Oh my!" Veronica was surprised. "What is it that you have to bow to me? Please, stand up!"

"We won't be able to stand up unless you agree to our request," Ovior stubbornly stated.

"What it is that you need?"

"Please revive Dorothy? I still have her body intact with magic," Ovior begged.

"Ruth too. I don't have her body but I have her soul," Felix added.

Veronica was astounded by their requests. She heard from Ovior about Dorothy's unfortunate death. As for Felix's lover Ruth, she had known her for a long time. Sister Ruth took great care of her and she would do anything to help her. Sister Ruth's death was the saddest part of her life in Utahill. "Ovior, we need the Holy Spring to revive her. Isn't her body preserved with a spell in Tybu?"

"I brought her here this morning," Ovior answered. "Since I couldn't use the spell on her inside the Elven Realm, her body might start decomposing soon." Read Web s Online Free - Fire

'Did he go to the Magic Tower yesterday when he got the chance? But how did he manage to fool the eyes of the Elves?' she wondered.

However, it wasn't tto think about that. She hurried him, "Let's bring her with us to the Holy Spring. We can't revive a rotten body."

"I'll get her," Ovior said and then hurriedly left.

Afterward, she glanced at Felix and said, "I need to know more about the soul revival method. Please givestime. But I can't guarantee that it will work."

"I know." Felix's eyes brimmed with tears. "But your words are enough. Thank you, Veronica."

"Please don't thankyet."

Later on, she left a short letter to Arthur before traveling to the Holy Spring. Since they already knew the route, they took horses and rode as fast as they could. Veronica walked inside the cave first. She was followed by Felix and Ovior as they pulled the sack that had Dorothy's body. The Holy Spring was as quiet as before. Not a single creature was there. Ovior opened the sack and Dorothy's body cinto their view. For years no one but him saw her delicate beauty.

The pale skin, brunette wavy hair – everything was just like before. Nothing had changed over the years.

Only the marks she received before her death were taken care of. He didn't want to leave any marks on her.

Veronica prepared Dorothy's body the sway she did Catherine's. Once her body was in the lake, she knelt in front of the lake and started praying.

Felix and Ovior did the same. Both squeezed their eyes and prayed hard. They never prayed to the Goddess before. They thought it was tto do so. In any case, both of their lovers died a long tago. They weren't sure if this method would work. If this method worked on Dorothy and she could be revived, there was a tiny bit of possibility that Ruth could be revived as well.

Soon, they could feel a strong and warm silver light covering them. They didn't dare to open their eyes.

Splash!

When they heard the noise in the water, only then did they open their eyes. The strong light was gone. It took them stto adjust their eyesight. After adjusting, they looked around. However, Veronica wasn't in front of them. She was gone!

Dorothy, who was floating on the lake, disappeared as well.

They stood up and frantically looked for the girls.

"Veronica?! Dorothy?!" Ovior shouted their names.

However, there was no reply. They would only see the ripples in the water.

Without hesitation, Felix took off his shoes and dived into the lake.

In contrast to the warmth of the silver light, the water of the lake was extremely cold. It was dark too, compared to the light hue it illuminated. It felt like his brain was going to freeze in a second. He could sense thousands of needles pricking his body. It was painful to the point he wanted to open his mouth and gasp for oxygen and cry in pain.

Just at that moment, a scene cto his vision.

He saw Dorothy drowning in the deep lake and Veronica was holding her hands. Behind her, another woman was holding them. At first, he thought that the woman was pushing them down. He swam toward them. He noticed that the woman wasn't pushing them or anything. She enveloped two other girls with a strange blue light. The blue light matched her clothes. Her long hair was shining in the dark lake. Her eyes were closed. It seemed that she was concentrating on something. The blue light glowed stronger, nearly engulfing the two unconscious women.

Fear crept into Felix's heart. He thought, 'What if they are taken somewhere no one can find them?'

He swam harder.

The woman must have sensed his presence. She opened her eyes and turned her head toward him/

Their eyes locked.
