She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 753 Crossing the Limit

Now that Michael got to know something new about his niece, there was no way he was going to let the matter rest without doing something about it. He reverted back to his original plan of gauging Ariel's full strength.

However, at the moment, he couldn't think of anything that he could possibly do to check that without having to show himself.

So, for now, he followed Ariel while fuming with rage. He was enraged that his father was playing favorites, he was enraged that he had been lied to by those tiny spies of his, and he was enraged that his mother was also playing favorites by going as far as barricading the whole Kingdom of Wyverndale.

While he was lost in his thoughts, he was already inside the dining hall. He happened to stand behind Princess Victoria because he could directly see Ariel from there.

And he was so engrossed in recalling everything from the past two decades that he didn't even realize that he had forgotten to hide his immense aura.

And before he was aware of his mistake, Damien and Ariel had already noticed the thick aura that had filled the dining hall.

Michael only came back to reality when his ears suddenly caught Ariel saying, "Are you also seeing what I am seeing?"

At first, he thought that Ariel was talking about something else.

However, when Damien looked around the room and talked about the source and the aura, he finally realized that the two of them were talking about the aura that he was emitting.

Michael had thought that those kids wouldn't catch up to his presence in the room. But he changed his mind when he noticed Ariel performing some hand gestures under the table.

His eyes were wide open when he thought to himself, "Isn't that our mother's spell? The one that can reveal what is hidden?"

"Of course, she would teach that to her favorite," Michael gritted his teeth in jealousy and anger. Stay connected with empire

And before Ariel would complete the spell and see him standing there right in front of her, Michael disappeared from there.

"I think we should get going now," the Goddess said to Irene when she felt like they had waited long enough for Ariel and Damien's private moments to be over.

However, Irene was a little skeptical. "What if they are still… you know… at it?"

The Goddess laughed and replied, "Do you want me to check on them?"

"No!" Irene shouted in protest thinking that she would have to witness some more of the private moments of her niece.

But her mother had already projected a live view of Ariel in front of them. They both were able to see what Ariel was doing at the moment.

Thankfully for Irene, it looked like Ariel was in some kind of a hall. And she sighed in relief.

However, her sigh of relief soon turned into a gasp of surprise.

"Brother…" she clenched her fist over her chest and tried to touch the image of someone who she hadn't seen for thousands of years.

The Goddess was also not expecting to see Theodore there in Romania. She knitted her brows together and asked herself, "What is he doing there?"

And she suddenly remembered that when Irene had teleported both of them, she didn't get the chance to put the barrier back up.

"No! Did something happen? Is that why Theodore is there?" The Goddess quickly rotated her palm.

And the projection started to show the things that happened in the past instead of what was happening at the moment.

"What's wrong, mother?" Irene was sad when her mother didn't let her see her brother for more than a few seconds. "Can I take one more look at Theodore?" she politely asked her mother to put on the live view.

But the Goddess was afraid for Ariel and she wasn't listening to a word that Irene was saying to her. She stopped rewinding the view when she also noticed the red aura that had covered the dining hall.

She narrowed her eyes while glaring at one particular empty space in that hall. And she mumbled in a subtle anger-laced voice, "Michael! You've crossed your limit!"

"Michael?" Irene got startled when she heard his name. "What happened? Did he do something?"

The Goddess held out her palm for Irene and said, "Nothing alarming for now. But we have to go."

The moment Irene touched the Goddess' palm, both of them vanished from where they were.

The Goddess had thought about Theodore before she teleported. And she and Irene found themselves right in front of Theodore.

But unlike what they had expected, they weren't inside a hall but inside a dark corner of the castle.

"Who's there?" Theodore abruptly turned around when he felt someone's presence.

The Goddess revealed herself and answered, "It's me. I'm sorry that I was a little careless." She pointed her palm to her side and added, "I was busy catching up with your sister."

"Sister?" Theodore furrowed his brows and glanced at the empty space beside his mother.

He hoped that it wasn't Lavera because he had some unfinished business with her. He hadn't forgotten how she was partially responsible for making his daughter miserable. And right now, if she was to appear in front of him, he didn't know what he would do to her in a fit of his rage.

To his relief, he saw his younger sister timidly standing there and looking down.

"Irene!" Theodore instantly assumed that the aura that his daughter had seen earlier was from Irene.

But then again, Irene was someone who didn't even know how to get angry. So, he dismissed the possibility that the aura of anger belonged to this pure soul. He wanted to ask his mother who that aura belonged to. But first, he wanted to properly greet his sister.

"I haven't seen you in a while, shorty," Theodore ruffled Irene's thick hair and smiled ear to ear.

Irene raised her head to finally take a look at Theodore's face. She didn't know why, but she felt like crying when Theodore greeted her as though they were seeing each other after a day.

She then hesitantly asked Theodore, "You don't hate me for not coming to see you sooner?"
