Beast King's Crippled Mate-Chapter 319: His Death

[Music Recommendation: Elfen Lied Ost - Lilium.]

"I SAID, YOU WON’T GET AWAY!" Aria shouted as she conjured a dark cloud right above the giant wolf. The dark cloud got bigger and bigger, and Swan could see lightning inside the dark cloud. She felt a shiver down her spine as she had a bad feeling about what would happen next.

"GALE! ABOVE YOU!" Swan yelled, and Gale sensed the danger. He quickly dropped Swan to the ground and protected her with his giant body, ensuring Swan would be safe.

Aria flew high in the sky and grinned from ear to ear when she saw the giant wolf and the angel in a hopeless state.

’Ah, this is perfect,’ Aria thought in her head. She had no control over her body right now, as her body was acting like a puppet for Madam Harsetti. But she was glad that she made a deal with the Great Witch because Madam Harsetti was proven to be a lot stronger than she would ever be. ’I can finally see him looking defeated. There is no more distraction now. No pesky wolf betas whatsoever to protect him, and Swan is probably dying under that giant body anyway. You are amazing, Madam!’

’Hm~ well, I can do so much because you’ve made a deal with me,’ Madam Harsetti chuckled. ’Do you want to deliver the final blow?’

’N-no, I’m scared that my power won’t be enough to completely defeat him. Please do it for me, Madam.’

’Sure.’

Aria’s body was covered with a powerful red aura as she chanted, "Fill that cloud with my vengeance, grudge, and anger, and let it strike my opponent, UNTIL EVERYTHING BURNS!"

The lightning flashed from the cloud, blinding everyone who witnessed it for a split second before a giant thunder was released and hit the giant wolf’s body.

"ARGH!" Gale screamed in pain as he tried his best to shield his wife without hurting her. He tried to maintain his consciousness, but it was too difficult as the attack was way too strong for him to endure.

Meanwhile, Swan was stunned and silenced as Gale was attacked by thunder over and over until he fell to the ground. He slowly reverted to his human form.

He was barely conscious, but he still got up and walked towards his wife. He hugged his wife once more to protect her and asked, "Wife... are you... alright?"

Swan’s body began to shake as she couldn’t bear seeing her husband in this state. Gale was still worried about his wife, so he said, "You... need to leave. Go back to heaven... to raise our son. I still... have some strength left to distract her while you run away."

Gale could barely open his eyes right now, but when he saw the silhouette of Aria floating down towards them, he slowly got up and stood in front of Swan to protect her for the last time.

"I’m sorry, Swan. I... I am not as strong as I thought I was..." Gale murmured while courageously facing the dark witch. "But I still can hold her off for a while. You need to leave now, Swan."

Swan didn’t move at all.

She was staring at her husband and began crying, "What do you mean? I told you that I will never leave you anymore." ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"The situation is different... you need to leave."

"NO!"

"SWAN!" Gale raised his voice. "Leave now!"

Aria rolled her eyes. She pointed her finger at Gale and said, "You two talk too much. I’m so sick of this disgusting love story."

Aria shot two lightning bolts toward Gale’s chest.

Gale took both attacks and he fell to the ground.

Amidst his fleeting consciousness, he saw his wife sitting frozen on the ground, looking at him with tears that turned into crystals when they dropped.

"No... wife... run..." Gale desperately tried to get up and protect her again but to no avail, no matter how hard he tried to. His consciousness slowly slipped out, as he prayed to Goddess Selene.

Goddess, if this is my end, then I am begging you to give all of my blessings to my wife. I will never forgive you if you let her get hurt, even if it’s only a scratch. I will chase you even from the depths of hell if my wife is hurting.

Swan watched as her husband’s soul slowly floated away from her body. She could see it clearly as an angel, and she shook her head desperately, "No! NO!"

Swan hugged her husband and tried kissing him many times to heal him. She also tried to pull his soul back to his body, but his body was so badly injured that it was impossible to do so.

"No, husband... Gale..." Swan began sobbing while hugging her husband. She never expected things to end up this way. She truly thought that she was strong enough to defeat Aria. "This is all my fault, husband. I am too weak. Too useless for you..."

"Ugh, would you stop that nonsense crying?" Aria rolled her eyes again as she floated towards Swan and Gale’s corpse. "You can’t save him because you’re just a weak crippled bitch. It has always been like that, Swan."

...

Swan continued sobbing as if she didn’t care about Aria.

"If I had to be honest, I am so jealous of you. How could you have such a loyal man as your husband? You don’t deserve him, but I do," Aria commented. "Now, will you give him to me? I will use all of my spells to try and reanimate him. He will be my husband from now on."

"If you let him go, I might spare your life and turn you into my crippled maid. You can be a foot stool like before," Aria chuckled. "It would be a great ending for you, to become a foot stool, so you will live your life in disgrace. It’d be a good payback for all the humiliation I’ve experienced so far."
