The Devil's Cursed Witch novel Chapter 407

Draven looked at his hands in shock. It was as if he was some powerless being and he was being delusional to think he had powers. Taking a step back, he found a broken stone pillar a few feet away from him and after hitting it with a blast, that stone pillar turned into dust.

'Is this the difference between the purity of divinity? Because I'm a mere beast while she's a deity?'

"Ember! Stop this!" he called out, despite knowing that his voice could not possibly reach her because of the barrier. "Ember! Morph!"

It was shocking how he could not do anything despite seeing the situation in front of him. He thought he had forgotten how fear and desperation felt, that he had grown numb to emotions, but he realized he was merely lying to himself.

The King of Agartha was powerless in front of destiny once more.

The sounds of wings flapping caused him to get back to his senses.

Headed by Chief Agraleus, the leaders and warriors who were first to respond to the explosion were arriving one by one at the palace. Various expressions, from grim to horrified, were on their faces. They were all weaker than Draven, that was why they were more affected by the terrifying strength coming from within the barrier.

To worsen the situation, Draven's appearance was extremely terrible, as if he had gone through a fierce battle, his clothes dirty and burned at some parts. And also they could not see blood on him due to his all black attire, they could smell the strong stench of blood on him.

Was the King attacked?!

"Your Majesty!"

"What happened—"

"Where are the enemies—" _{ƒreewebɳovel.com}

"Morpheus! Where is he?"

Agraleus had already lost his calm upon seeing Draven. In his mind, if even the King was in this awful situation, then wouldn't it be worse for his nephew? He panicked as he searched for his nephew.

Thanks to Draven's earlier efforts, most of the flames outside the barrier had been extinguished, allowing those outside to somewhat see the situation inside despite the raging flames, the sharp winds and the bolts of lightning obstructing most of their vision.

They saw the King's mate domineeringly covered in flames, the strangled female shapeshifters, as well as the bleeding Commander of Warriors on the ground with a female shapeshifter crying over his body.

"Commander Morpheus is inside!"

"Commander! Commander!"

"He's still alive, right—"

Few started to call for him, but there was no response.

"The King's mate put up this barrier, right? How can a human be so strong?"

"Lady Ember, please remove this barrier!"

Only then did they realize that the barrier isolated the outside world from those within the dome-shaped barrier. They also tried to break the barrier, but their efforts yielded no results.

"That female…isn't that Young Lady Isa next to the Commander?" someone said.

"Aren't those ladies from the Divine Fox Clan?" another commented when they recognized the three shapeshifters being strangled by Ember's power, struggling for their lives.

More people had arrived by then, and one of them was High Elder Halifax from the Moon Elf Clan. "Your Majesty! You need to find a way to stop your mate or she will kill everyone inside."

"Your Majesty, please break the barrier and save the Commander!"

"Your Majesty—"

Among them, Draven was the most desperate to destroy the damned barrier, but he was helpless in front of Ember's power. He could not help but get angry at himself—he could not figure out why his powers were not working when he needed them the most.
