Chapter 162

  Selena.

  I blinked as I stepped out of the portal. I quickly moved out of the way as someone was passing. While coming, I had activated a cloaking spell and thanks to me having access to all the cursed magic rooted in me, no one would be able to see through the spell. No one at all.

  I looked around and walked to a less crowded place. It was safer if I avoid contact with people even though no one would feel it, and even if anyone does, it would be hard to notice among this crowd.

  About that. What the hell is happening here?

  I was in a large Arena filled with people. It was like a big event was taking place. The ringing of a bell took me by surprise and I flinched. I looked at the fighting ground to see young Mages lined up and sustaining magical elements before them.

  At that age, I would totally do my nails and still maintaining all of the elements on that ground. It was still a curse though.

  The magic of the hex told me that Garr was here, but there are so many people here and finding him would be hard not to mention all of the magical signatures my body was sensing all together.

  The hex would soon kick in and if it happened here, it would draw everyone's attention to him.

  Best guess is that every powerful person here would be trying to save him and he'll be surrounded so I won't be able to get to him.

  I have to find a way to get him out of here, but he's a Proffessor so it's his duty to be here so to get him out,

  I have to take everyone out too.

  Hmmm. So what can I do to make everyone run away, including Garr.

  I flinched as the large bell rang again so they can begin the next segment of the completion. Stupid bell.

  I suddenly stopped as I got an idea of what I could. My gaze darted to the bell and I slowly walked towards

  it.

  How about a dark spell to disrupt the Arena. As I got closer to the bell, I could feel the powerful magic of those at the high table so I have to be extra careful.

  I was confident I won't be detected, but anything can happen.

  I finally got to the bell and I looked at it from the top to the bottom. I placed my hands on it and closed my eyes.

  "Illawarra Doomei Nastro. Illawarra Doomei Nastro." I chanted and I felt magical energy build up in my hand and spread across the bell as I cast the dark spell.

  I finally took my hands off the bell as the spell was complete and I sighed deeply. I stretched out my hands again and used an invisible force to strike the bell.

  The bell ring loudly, causing the earth to shake and wind storm ripped through the Arena. Everyone fought to maintain balance and I watched as it all died down before striking the bell again.

  The storm continued and I once again struck the bell, causing everywhere to be on a verge of total destruction. The earth was shaking as though it would give way and swallow everyone whole.

  I heard a loud alarm blare and I immediately guessed that it was some kind of signal to get everyone away.

  Just what I want.

  Mega portals began to open around the Arena and everyone struggled to get into them, fighting their way through and colliding against each other.

  That was truly sad, but if all this meant, I would be able to have a complete family, then I don't want to mind.

  The Arena became less and less crowded and I could sense that Garr was still here. I looked up and finally spotted him.

  He was talking to a woman on the floor and he helped her up. There he is.

  He stretched out his hands to create a portal and he walked in with the woman. I felt the destination of the portal and I also stretched out my hands to form my scarlet portal.

  As the portal fully formed, I hurriedly got in. *

  I looked up and gasped, covering my mouth as I spotted the horror that I had done.

  I could see familiar clothes lying on the floor, shredded. I gasped and I became a bolt of lightning, flashing there and rematerializing.

  It was the clothes Jackson just had on. They were shredded and Jackson's body was nowhere to be found.

  All I could see was thr blood on the floor. His blood.

  Oh No! I felt my heart pound in my chest. What did I do??

  The magic must have dissolved his flesh and bones.

  I killed Jackson! I turned my Bethrothed to dust!! I held a piece of Jackson's cloth in my hand and tears trickled down my face.

  Noooooooooooo! I screamed and I could feel my voice tearing through the air, the sonar blast would have killed anyone in it's way.

  I didn't know what to think. I felt like I was being hit on the heart with the heaviest weight.

  I looked sideways as I saw a large portal form in the air. I watched as my dad and several other people stepped out of the portal.

  They must have felt the effect of my episode and come here as soon as they were sure it was safe.

  They all looked around to see what had become of the vast land. The land that was once filled with trees, lively air and a pond now looked like it had suffered the fate of a magma eruption.

  The trees had all been obliterated, the soil was black and loose, and pond literally turned into a body of scarlet rock fragments.

  "Selena," My dad came closer and put his hand on my shoulder as I sobbed. Another portal opened and I saw a familiar woman run out of it.

  Jackson's mother.

  "Jackson, Jackson," she said with fear in her tone and she looked around in disorientation.

  She finally stopped looking around and she stared at me before her eyes darted to the shredded piece of

  Jackson's cloth I was holding.

  "Where's Jackson? What happened to my son?!" She screamed and I could hear her heart rising and falling in her chest.

  I sniffed as the tears kept rolling down my eyes. I couldn't contain the pain and guilt I was feeling.

  "I'm.......s....... sorry," I said with my voice breaking and I sniffed.

  "What? What happened to him?!" She shouted and tried to move close to me, but my dad pushed her back.

  "He's......g.....gone. Jackson's dead." I said and immediately, I saw the woman stagger backward in shock before falling unconscious.

  I killed Jackson and I would never forgive myself for it.
