Concealed Love

Chapter-67 " Weren't you worried"

Al rushed to her place and when he reached there he saw a man trying to hurt Ella who was already lying on the ground barely conscious and his conscience snapped.

Al was not the only one who reached there, not long after he came Xerven also came, but what he saw was a very different scene compared to Al.

Ella was laid up in the corner carefully and two guys laid nearly unconcious on the floor, their features were far from recognisable, seeming to have gone through a rough trashing but they couldn't be dead as their bodies still remained intact despite the many broken bones without turning into ashes.

Al's hands were covered in blood, he didn't even bother to take out his sword as he fought the big man who had a bloody face.

Al noticed Xerven and said, " Look after her, but don't lay your hands on her, I'll be done in a minute. "

The psycho looking guy shouted in anger mixed with madness as he smiled with wide eyes, " do you think you'll get away? I'll crush every bone in your body like the woman lying over there. First I'll make sure you won't be able to move, then break your limbs one by one, before I kill you and mob the floor with your blood. "

Al displayed a cold blooded grin and said, " That is, a nice idea. "

Before the psycho notice, he gathered an enormous amount of energy on his hands and punched the psycho right on his heart, holding back just enough to keep him alive without moving.

The psycho suddenly lose all hearing as his eyesight blurred, before he realise he was lying on the floor, not able to move a a single inch of his body.

He shouted as that was the only thing he was capable of at that moment, " What the crazy fk did you do? You're dead me- ahhhh. "

Before he finished talking Al broke one of his arm, crushing it with his feet. The guy's screaming echoes could be heard around the whole neighborhood but Al put a barrier around the house to make sure that the normal people around the place wouldn't hear and notice.

Seeing the scene Xerven said to himself in his head, ' Ah, I should never piss off this guy, although I am his enemy. ' he cried internally.

The guy shouted curses at him in pain but Al looked down at him like staring at some insect and kept torturing him, just as the psycho was planning to so. He made him fall, incapable of moving and broke his limps one by one.

Xerven noticed that Ella was slowing down her soft breaths and said, " Al, we have to safe her quickly,she'll get worse. "

Al came back to his senses, he pull forth his sword and slashed the psycho lying on the floor with his back right at his throat, he immediately burned up in flames and turned to dust.

He rushed to Ella, picked her up as gently as he knew how to and left telling Xerven, " Take care of the other two. "

Xerven wanted to go back and look after Ella as well but as he didn't want to die like the psycho, he complied.

He came here because Edward told him something had probably happened to Ella, not knowing he'll find such a bloody scene.

He sighed, and walked up to the two man lying unconcious. One of them woke up and seeing him cursed out, " You dog, you betrayed us and now you're following them? Aren't you ashamed, you think you can survive... "

Before he could speak more, Xerven bent down and twist his neck with just an arm and killed him off, he did the same with the other guy and said calmly with a cold stare, " This is why you are all fools, not even knowing the position you're in before running your mouth off. "

He stood back up displaying a smile, looked around the house and said, " Damn, the Old man's not gonna like the state his house is in. Well Iam not in a position to worry about others. The master is probably gonna kill me for letting them do as they please with the princess. "

He sighed a mournful sigh for himself dramatically and left the place.

Al brought Ella back to his house and laid her in his bed, on his way up he shouted for Sira to come up with the first aid tools.

The two couples were in the living room so they saw him carrying her in and followed him upstairs.

Iri after seeing the wounds couldn't stop herself from crying, " What happened? What happened to her.. " She tried hard to supress her sobs.

Sira who heard Al calling for her in hurry ran up in panic and saw Ella lying in bed, covered in bruises.

Al knew that a normal doctor couldn't help her so he stood by her side and thought of all the things to help her.

Sira asked, " Shall I call the doctor? "

Al looked at her and realised that she was ignorant of Ella's true identity so he said, " No, I'll call for another. Can you go and heat up some water to clean her? "

Sira agreed and quickly ran down, Jace also knew her situation and that calling for a human doctor would would be meaningless.

At that moment, Xerven came in and asked, " How's she? "

Al didn't bother replying to him but another familiar old voice came in after him, " I cannot walk so fast anymore I am old. Anyway where is the witch? Ah there she is. "

Al looked at him and said, " Aren't you out of the country, why are you here. "

Old Li sigh, " I was coming back today and met Xerven on the way, anyway let me take a look at her. "

Al frowned as he didn't know the old man's ability but Xerven seeing his insecurity said, " Don't worry, Old Li know a little bit about healing a demons body. "

Old Li saw that they were all standing with gloomy faces and Iri was even crying, " Heh, why do you all look like she is about to die any time soon. Don't sorry, this much isn't enough to kill an undead witch. "

Al didn't like the way he talked about her but he also knew that he meant no harm so he let him do his work.

The small wounds on her body was already healing but the bigger ones didn't seemed to be getting any better.

Iri asked him while he was checking the internal injuries through her wrist, " The last time she was hurt, the wounds on her healed quickly, but why is it that this time it's not getting better at all? "

" Is that so, I guess it would be taking a lot longer this time. " Old Li answered.

And Al asked, " Why? "

" Her internal flow of enery was disrupt and the core was nearly damaged so her body is trying to heal that one first instead of the outer injuries. She'll wake up once that is healed, it may take some days but don't worry, she wouldn't die just yet. " Old Li assured them giving them some relief.

The people in the room heaved a small sigh of relief after all that agitation and worrying. Iri thanked the Old man and he acted like it was an obvious thing to do.

Sira brought the warm water, " Here is the water and a clean cloth young master, shall I wipe her? "

He was worried that she might see her wounds healing up quickly so he said, " It's okay, please let me do it. "

Sira thought that he just wanted to look after the young miss himself because he worry so she agreed.

Al asked her, " Sira, can you not tell my parents about this? They'll be worried and Ella wouldn't want people to see her in this state. "

Sira understood and agreed, " Of course young master, I shall not tell them a word of this. "

Al gave her a small smile and said, " Thank you. "

Old Li after checking her state said, " My work here is done, I heard those people came to my house, I kept something important there so I'll go first. "

Al agreed and Xerven wanted to stay but Old Li called out to him, " Xerven, come, you're useless here. "

Once again Xerven had no choice but to follow. Al thanked Old Li and they left.

After that Jace said, " I'll go ask the others to stop their movements and stay on alert for now. "

Al didn't want to halt the plan, in fact he wanted to go there himself and kill everyone involve right that instant but more than any of those he didn't want to let Ella out of his side for even a second so he told Jace to go along with his words.

Before he left Jace patted Iri's head and said, " Don't worry, the doctor said she'll be fine. Take care of yourself as well okay, I might be gone for a while this time. "

Iri gave him a small smile to assure him than she'll be fine, " Don't worry, I'll take care of myself, you take care too. "

He gave her a hug and left the house secretly before anyone around noticed.

Al and Iri was left alone in the room with the unconscious Ella. Iri saw that Al was wiping Ella's hands and offered, " Shall I clean her body? Don't worry I'll do a proper job. "

Al remembered that Iri also knew everything about Ella so he stood up and let Iri sit and take care of Ella, " Please do so. "

After leaving with Old Li Xerven asked him, " Old man, will Ella really get better? "

Old Li clicked his toungue and said, " Of course she'll get better, do you think she's a girl who can die that easily, you're all so worrisome. "

Xerven put on a cheeky grin and said, " Really? I thought you were also running in hurry when you heard that Ella was hurt. Weren't you worried as well? "

Old man clicked his toungue irritably and said, " Don't spout bullshit, there's no way there would ever come a day for me to be worried about that damned witch, if any I am glad to see that she can even be hurt, tsh tsh. "

Xerven laughed secretly, he knew that the old man was just saying nonsense to hide that he was worried as he was shy about it.

But his laughter didn't last long as , as soon as they reached his house and he opened the door he screamed, " Who in the devils name did this to my house, which son of a b* *h did this. "

The house looked perfectly fine from the outside but from the back it was completely destroyed, the doors, the furnitures, everything was in a mess.

He turned to Xerven in fury as he asked in a threatening tone, " Who, who did this, tell me I'll kill whoever did this to my house. "

Xerven knew that the psycho did some damage but it was mainly Al who was destroyed the house but he shut his eyes tight as he gave the old man a quick reply, " It was those people who came to get Ella, they were the ones trashing the house around and don't worry, I've already killed them for you. "

The Old man who didn't have anyone else to put the blame on cursed out repeatedly.

Xerven quietly stood in a side and whispered, " Be thankful prince, it is all because of me that the Old man didn't rush to your house to kill you. Ah.. Iam such a good person, thoughtful even for my enemy, why can't I just be a heartless bastard, ah.. "
