His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 529  Grand Reunion (Two)

"Ah! Come here! Let me look at you, my dear Cassandra! Look at the three of you… I wish your little sister were also here! It would indeed be a glorious reunion for our family!" said the dark shaman delightedly; he laughed, and it echoed throughout the forest.

Meanwhile, the three women darkened their faces. They were displeased with his statement and filled it with malice.

"We would not allow you to get near her!" It was Madison who yelled out.

Seeing Madison stressing out, Hwa-Young rushed to her side and soothed her down.

Madison was fuming angrily, but she understood when Hwa-Young pleaded with her eyes.

'You are pregnant.'

Even though it was against her will, Madison pursed her lips to suppress her outrage. She should calm down and must not engage in a physical fight against this man while she is expecting her fourth child.

Furthermore, she would never accept the man as her father.

The man before them curved his lips with viciousness. 'I need to get out of here.' he knew that his daughter met him with a purpose.

He looked around to find a route to escape. Suppose he were to jump off the cliff. There is a stream at the bottom. From there, he will ride the flow of the stream until he reaches a small village.

Then he will look for a perfect body to possess and leave this country and look for his next target.

Isabella was standing near the cliff. In his state at the moment, he is no match for his daughter if they fight physically.

However, he has a problem. His power is still limited. If only he had reunited with the other half of his soul, he would have had no difficulty defeating his daughters.

But he must wait until his youngest darling daughter awakens her special gift. Afterward, he could eventually locate where the sorcerer hid half of his soul!

Hence, he needs to hide until his youngest daughter comes of age.

It was what was playing in his mind.

The man was determined to get away from their grasp. He gathered all the energy left in his body and released them without warning.

Little did he know, Isabella sees through his action.

She promptly stood firmly on the ground and covered her face with her two arms. On the other hand, Hwa-Young repels the energy and uses her own to protect Madison from the blast.

Isabella began the chant without giving him another chance to gather much energy.

They could also hear voices chiming the same prayer as Isabella at a distance. The man was in a panic.

Among everyone else, he knew what ritual they were reciting. He performed this ritual when he sealed off his enemies' souls.

'No! I need to get away from here! I would not let them seal me off!'

The man was determined to jump off the cliff. He took the opportunity while Isabella was focused on chanting the ritual.

However, a powerful force pushed him back when he leaped past Isabella. He was caught off guard because of the splitting pain in his head. He was thrown to the ground.

'Ugh! This sound…'

It was the sword!

The man shook his head and squinted his eyes. He looked up; Liam's sharp look met his gaze. And before he could move a muscle, the sword's edge struck his heart.

"Ahhhhhh!"

A piercing scream let out from his mouth. Slowly, he could feel that his body was disappearing.

Realizing this, a dark shadow came out from the body and hurried to escape; however, it was too late.

The magic circle lit up.

From the view above the forest, a triangle shape radiated after they completed the ritual. The dark shadow wished to get out, but he was now inside the magic circle that Isabella, Madison, and Hwa-Young had prepared to seal him away.

He was caught in the middle of the circle…

The three women slash the tip of their fingers and let the blood drop to the ground. After that, a blinding light filled that part of the forest.

It forced the dark shadow to retract and sink into the decomposed body he possessed.

The five shamans appeared from nowhere. They were carrying a giant golden box and walked toward the dark shadow. Upon opening its cover, the dark shadow was sucking inside.

The five shamans immediately close the cover, and Liam plunges the sword into the middle as it stands in the lock of the golden box.

The sword must not remove—as it weakens the dark shaman's soul.

Seeing this, the five shamans heave a sigh of relief.

"Finally, at long last… We were able to seal him off." said one of the five shamans.

"Indeed… Our ancestors were waiting for this moment." Chimed the oldest shaman.

"However, we haven't annihilated his soul," said Liam, cutting into their joy.

The five shamans, including Isabella, Madison, and Hwa-Young, had only rejoiced shortly. But they understood. The dark shaman would not exterminate by simply stabbing the body but by a special ritual during a Red Blood Moon.

"Liam was right. We need to locate half of his soul first," Isabella concurred and explained. "We found no records of where hid half of his soul. I've already used up the energy to seal him off, and it will take a long time before my power returns, whereas Madison is pregnant now, and we cannot travel to another timeline. Thus, we hope the children to inherit our ability, and they could travel time to investigate this matter."

"And since they were little children now. We have to wait patiently for the time being." Hwa-Young chirped in. "I will request my children to investigate and search for the record regarding five hundred years ago when we sealed off half of this soul. Although it was sad that we remember nothing from those lives, I believed it was for the best."

"I think so too…." Madison chimed in. "If we could remember it, the high risk is that the man will be able to read our mind and locate half of his soul."

"They were saying that our mother deleted those memories by offering her life," said Hwa-Young.

"So we will not waste what she gives up." Isabella concurred with what her sisters from other lives had said.

Their mother gives up her immortality as the moon's deity to protect this world from their father.
