Chapter 211 - Battle with the demon lord

Her lashes quivered and slowly she opened her eyes.

She had no memories of how the s.e.x.u.a.l intercourse went through, but she knew she had sealed the bond.

She had no idea about the way gaining the guardian fully would feel like, and has just heard from history. But right now, she's finding out.

The quilt covering her body leaped away on its own, thank god Leo had dressed her up in a while sleeveless gown after she fell asleep, she would have been n.a.k.e.d.

She couldn't feel her body as if she evaporated into nothing. Her body started to levitate.

"As the 89th guardian of the earth, I Clara, called upon you demon lord. I challenge you to a fight and you shall heed my request." She didn't know what took over her mind, but the heavy responsibility that usually gave her headache now felt like the only thing she existed for, right now.

It doesn't feel like a burden, it felt like something she must do. Her purpose.

Slowly her body got into a standing position in the air.

...

Gregory, who was outside the garden of his mansion, got the summon.

Clara's voice rang in his ear and a smile crept it's way to his lips.

This is going to be fun. He thought as his eyes turn a shade of black.

The summon was so strong that it began tearing off his human form.

A harsh growl escaped his lips as his horn began protruding from his head. His skin began to change color, cracking like an old wall that's nearing crumbling.

The whole turned demon all around got summoned immediately.

Those who are CEO began dropping the pen in their hands and got up. With invisible speed, they began leaving to the place engraved in their mind by their summoner.

Those eating, push aside their plate.

Those in a plane and couldn't find a way out, ended up evaporating.

Those who were asleep woke up.

They have no choice. Once the guardian summoned, the demon lord must heed and when the demon lord summoned his minion, nothing could stop them from answering to it.

.....

Leo opened his eyes, upon hearing the sound of objects crashing.

He quickly sat up as he saw the entire place messy, with broken glass all around.

His heart skipped as he lookedbeside him and couldn't see Clara.

"Shit!" He cursed and was about to rush out, but suddenly halted his steps. He still felt a presence of someone in the room.

He looked up and saw Clara floating up in the air, her eyes cloudy white with her hair swaying left and right behind her with a scary length. 

It looked like it doesn't have an ending, as it spread all over.

It was just as he saw her each time he closes his eyes after he had fired her from his mansion the first day they met.

This was the same vision that appeared and made him unable to sleep until he met her.

"Clara!" He called in a panic tone and took a few steps closer to where she was.

She doesn't look like she could hear or talk right now. Her lips set in a thin line as if she was pissed over something and with the way her brown creased, it felt like she was having a conversation that was annoying of some sort.

Before he could call her again, Her figure started fluctuating and looking transparent. It dash out at a lighting speed.

It doesn't look like a human and was more like an imaginary fairy. The door was closed, yet she disappeared through it.

Leo was already putting on his trousers and looking so scared. He ran out after her, but immediately he stepped out of the room, he couldn't find her any longer.

Oh god! Oh god!

He muttered to himself as he quickly ran back inside the room and fully got dressed before leaving for his mansion.

He needed to find her. She must not get hurt.

He felt so scared and tears is already streaming down his face.

What guardian?

She was just a fragile woman that needed to be loved. She was just Clara to him.

The love of his life.

...

Immediately he got to his mansion, he drove straight to the main house to meet Belle. 

She was his only option now.

She saw her already dressed for school and picked her up, while Mick waved them goodbye, thinking he would driving her to school.

Immediately they got inside his car, he dropped her on the shotgun seat and rushed to the driver's one.

"What?" Belle asked, frowning her cute little face because she still hasn't forgiven him for forcing her to go to school.

"Your mom has gone to face that Gregory thing. Is there a way I can locate where they are?" Leo asked.

The little princess expression change

instantly. "It's dangerous. He can sense humans from miles. You would only make mommy lose focus

It's good that you are alive. Her success is guaranteed." she replied, not looking like the innocent and cute girl from a few minutes ago.

She was replying to him, like an a.d.u.l.t. Her tone was sharp and words being portrayed like she wasn't interested in debate.

Leo shook his head and gave her a pleading expression.

"I can't just stay here. Even if I have to watch from afar, I want to be there with her.

I don't feel good about this. You all claim he is a tricky being. I am her other piece and if my being fine will resulted to his defeat, then why am I fine?

There hasn't been any attempt on my life from him. What if she's walking into his trap?" Leo poured out his thoughts.

This has been on his mind for a while now. Why is everything so smooth when it is guaranteed that he will lose as long as he's alive?

The little princess is the only one who understands all this, even more than Clara.

The little princess remained silent for a while. She thinks back to all the history she was told about Gregory and felt that Leo being safe and sound without any attack attempt is suspicious as well.

Normally, Clara should be stressed from protecting Leo from demons that would have been swarming around him and would try to kill him immediately his identity was confirmed, but that didn't happen.

Leo had been fine all along that it felt like that history is a lie. Could it be that Gregory has laid down a trap for Clara?

The reason she was sent here was because they sensed a strong usage of his power and worried that if he defeated Clara, he would gain control.

Could that be related to what's happening?

She looked into Leo's eyes.

"There is a way, but it's still dangerous for you to be there." The little princess warned.

"I want to be there. I can't just remain here doing nothing. I feel that she would need me." Leo insisted.

"Fine! Don't say I didn't warn you." The little princess said, before gesturing for him to look into her eyes.

Her own turn cloudy white and Leo suddenly looked like a dummy and just stared into it.

She took control of his brain and commanded him to find his other piece. "Take me to where she is." She said and Leo nodded his head.

Leo had no idea what he was doing, but felt like something was calling his attention to somewhere.

He had the location in his head now and the compelling made him head towards that direction.

Leo started the car drive off, looking straight ahead into the street as they got further away from town to where he felt the connection pulling him to.

After driving for almost 2 hours non stop, at a full speed, while Belle looked nonchalant and just sat down quietly, they finally stopped at an unknown area.

It was isolated without any house from a few miles away until he got there. His blood rushed even though he wasn't himself and lips pressed together

It was like his body was aware of the surrounding and reacting on its own.

Leo got down from the car and headed toward a certain direction, while the little princess followed behind.

Those thoughts were just popping, but he had no control over his sense, but his fear was so strong.

They kept walking into the deep bush and without a fear, Belle followed behind him.

They soon found themselves at a very large area of land that looked like it was magically created, because no one would have the time to prepare a stadium like field in the middle of a deep forest.

Seeing that they are finally here, Belle released Leo from her control.

Leo looked around in confusion, not understanding how they changed position.

"How did we get here?" He asked before hearing some weird sound from afar.
