A Villainess For The Tyrant
CH 215
Chapter 214 – Sudden Honeymoon
While the two were conversing, the fireworks display came to an end.
A barrage of fireworks all rose together high into the sky, seemingly announcing the end, and seemed to cover the heavens as far as the eye could see.
As the final sparks faded, applause rose from the crowd, along with sighs and laments for the event’s end and calls for an encore.
“It’s over,” Estian muttered.
However, just as those words left his mouth, suddenly a red flare shot up towards the sky.
“Huh? It’s not over yet?”
“Seems like it.
There must be more.”
“Wait… What is that?”
The people who’d been watching looked up expectantly at the rising light, anticipating the continuation of fireworks, but they soon realized there was something different. This was a pillar of fire.
And it wasn’t a normal fire.
Anyone could instinctively tell at a glance that it was something evil, evoking dark emotions of fear and apprehension.
Yet, before anyone could react, the pillar of fire vanished.
The crowd looked around confused.
Was it gone? Just as suddenly, the sky brightened and a huge light appeared in its place, causing the festivalgoers to shout in surprise.
“Why…”
“Huh? Huh?”
“What is it?”
Screams erupted from the people below.
The light in the sky didn’t drop, but split into many circles that spun around high above.
They seemed to be searching for something, which made everyone shrink back in terror.
Soon, the spinning light stopped moving and immediately began tumbling to the ground.
Estian instantaneously drew his black steel blade and swung it.
A deafening swish could be heard as one of the beams of light explosively grew in size as soon as it made contact with his sword.
Noticing this, Estian quickly embraced Cecile and rolled to the side, narrowly escaping the beams that struck the place they’d been standing and loudly exploded.
“Kugh!” A wave of scorching heat blasted them, so hot that it made their skin sting. ‘Is it magic?’ Estian wondered.
Judging by how it was obviously aiming for the death of its target, the spell must be ancient.
Ancient magic was persistent in nature, and would continue attacking until the spell’s power was depleted.
Gritting his teeth, Estian slashed and deflected another beam that shot towards them.
Meanwhile, Cecile, who was trembling in her husband’s arms, quickly reached for her ear. ‘I should at least summon the blue phoenix!’ The phoenix would surely be of help in this situation.
However, just as she reached to unhook the earring, another flash of light and wave of heat rushed over her with a huge boom.
“Ugh!” Cecile winced, covering her face involuntarily.
Cursing inwardly, she thought, ‘Just come out on your own when it feels dangerous, you stupid blue bird!’
Securing Cecile in his arms, Estian jumped for the roof of the next building, which had a proper floor, unlike the roof they’d been perched on.
Even as they retreated, the revolving lights in the sky began descending.
Unlike before, they all fell at once this time.
Estian realized he wouldn’t be able to protect Cecile at this rate.
The beams meant little to him, but his wife would suffer serious burns if she was caught up in the explosions.
Making a quick calculation, he decided he needed to get rid of the beams before they landed.
“Cecile, stay right here.” Leaving behind those words, Estian released Cecile and leapt into the air towards the beams of light.
Cecile stared after him blankly, before quickly reaching for her ear again.
However, at that moment, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
“Who…!” Whipping around, Cecile came face to face with a man she’d never seen before.
Just as she was deciding whether to scream, the man opened his mouth.
“Hello, my wife,” the man greeted seriously.
Cecile opened her mouth to rebut, intending to say, “You’ve got the wrong person.” However, before she could get the words out, the man cut her off.
“Today’s the start of our honeymoon.”
Cecile was speechless and she gaped at the brazen man. ‘Did I just hear a dog barking?’
