"Father, why don't you just lend me some powers so that I can also fight them and protect my wife?" Tristan made a suggestion.
FaMo: "..."
Zhen-Zhen: "..."
Lending power to humans, FaMo had never done that before. For the million years of his existence, he had been serving the demon god.
But he had tried merging his body with Tristan's body only to protect him but not necessarily giving him the power. That method was another story.
Though it was not entirely impossible still they couldn't guarantee success as well. If something would go wrong then Tristan's human body might be severely injured or damage by his powers. It was quite risky and dangerous.
FaMo and Zhen-Zhen both gave him an answer, "NO!"
Tristan: "..."
Zhen-Zhen didn't want Tristan to fight the guardian warriors by himself. She couldn't stand the thought of history repeating again where her mother died protecting her father, the demon god.
As much as possible, she didn't like Tristan to be involved in this fight. Zhen-Zhen preferred FaMo's suggestion over Tristan's suggestion. All she wanted was to make sure that Tristan would be safe.

Both FaMo and Tristan were taken aback by the sudden change in Zhen-Zhen's mood. Tristan could only pout his lips while following Zhen-Zhen obediently.
He didn't know why but Zhen-Zhen's aura became frightening moments ago. 'Did I say something that made her upset? I just want to protect her.' Tristan pondered to himself.
FaMo, on the other hand, knew where she was coming from. He also recalled the scene in the cave when Zhen-Zhen's mother sacrificed herself just to keep the demon god safe.
It was a very painful memory for Zhen-Zhen, seeing her mother died while protecting her father against the guardian warriors who were hell-bent to kill them.
FaMo exhaled deeply as he watched Tristan and Zhen-Zhen walking towards his wardrobe. They started packing his clothes.
'I guess my responsibility as a Protector is getting heavier now. I have three people who need my protection, Zhen-Zhen, her baby, and… Tristan.'

Meanwhile, in Hannah's VIP suite, she was still spacing out with all that happened yesterday and today. Last night, she almost died but Zhen-Zhen saved her from the fire. She witnessed an extraordinary thing that she didn't know it could really exist in this modern day.
Lillie Meyer had the ability to control fire. She was a witch in her eyes. She tried to warn Tristan, thinking that Zhen-Zhen was casting a spell on him to poison his mind.
But the most depressing part was that Tristan never believed her. He refused to listen because from the start he was also aware of it. Tristan had a slip of the tongue about Zhen-Zhen's power.
She just found a perfect opportunity to cast Zhen-Zhen out of the Davis Family. She only needed to reveal and tell them the things she had seen in that burning restaurant.
However, who would have thought that Zhen-Zhen would threaten her just to keep her silent? She had no choice but to make a deal with her or else, her life would be ruined if she would be marked as a murderer.
After all, she indeed tried to harm Zhen-Zhen. Unfortunately. another innocent girl got involved because of her evil deed. She didn't know what gotten to her at that time.
When she did that despicable thing Hannah was not in her right mind as if she was possessed by something. But she could no longer turn back time. Her action just backfired on her. Now, she regretted doing it.
Hannah was still scolding herself when she suddenly remembered someone: Mheera, the woman who saved her life in the mountain and the same woman who gave her the potion.
She wondered if she was also a witch, considering that the special potion she gave her possessed some kind of power.
Her eyes lit up as an idea crossed her mind. "What if Mheera has an extraordinary ability just like Lillie? Maybe Mheera can help me. She might have some solutions on how I can fight Lillie. I also need protection against Lillie."
Hannah immediately got up from her bed and grabbed her phone. She decided to video call her friends who were currently in the City of Empire. It did not take long when her friends answered her skype call.
"Sha-Sha, Julia!" Hannah called them out. She missed them
"Hannah!, how are you? Congratulations. I heard that your exhibit there was a success!" Julia congratulated her.
"Congrats, sis! We are so proud of you! When are you going back here? We have to celebrate!" Sha-Sha also expressed her joy for Hannah's success.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Girls, let's talk about that later. There's something I need you to do for me. Can you help me?" Hannah asked them with an urgency in her voice.
Though they were puzzled, Sha-Sha and Julia just nodded their head in agreement.
Sha-Sha: "Sure!"
Julia: "You know that you can always count on us, sissy!"
Hannah felt grateful because she had them. "Thanks, girls. I would really appreciate your help!"
"Can you remember the lady whom we met in the mountain when we went camping?" Hannah asked her friends.
"Oh, the one who saved you!" Sha-Sha promptly responded as she remembered.
"Of course! We will never forget her. She helped us and she saved our best friend!" Julia said, feeling grateful.
"Why, Hannah?" Both Julia and Sha-Sha asked her in unison.
"I need you to find her. Can you visit her? Once you see her, tell her that I am the one who sends you to her. Please ask her to meet me in the City of Empire. I will return home this week." Hannah requested them.
Mheera didn't have any contact number. They didn't know if she was still staying near that mountain. But she mentioned that if ever they wanted to see her they could just see her around that place.
Sha-Sha and Julia reassured Hannah. They would try to search for Mheera and bring her to the City of Empire. Hannah didn't explain further the reason why she wanted to meet Mheera. After thanking her friends, Hannah hung up the phone.
