The Eyes of the Devil's Bride

Energy Loss

About an hour later, Gavin who still saw Shanika was waiting in front of Xyan's operating room. With a feeling of worry immediately walked up to Shanika and said “Nona, you better rest first... later if the operation is finished, I will notify,” with a fixed gaze to Shanika.

While staring at the operating room door, Shanika who heard Gavin's words immediately shook her head and said “I want to see for myself when Xyan is brought out of the operating room,” with his tone of speech that sounds very weak, due to fatigue.

“But, Miss will also need good care and rest, even though the poison effect of the Devil snake is no longer there,” replied Gavin with a tone of speech that sounded very serious and filled with emphasis on Shanika.

That instant also made Shanika turn her head and return the gaze of Gavin “Oya, what about Zoya?” shanika asked suddenly to Gavin “Ya? why did Miss suddenly ask about Miss Zoya?” shocked Gavin with his confused expression.

“Before you said... The three of us can safely leave Zoya, because of the arrival of the Death Angel named Karis, right?” shanika asked again as she got up from her seat and stood facing straight towards Gavin.

“I-iya is right,” Gavin replied as he nodded his head slowly.

“When I left the abandoned place, I heard Zoya scream. What did Karis do to him? I'm very curious,” Shanika continued with her serious face.

“In addition, at this time I can no longer see invisible creatures anymore or even talk to them!” connect Shanika again, which at that time also made Gavin reflexively say “Ya. But, fortunately Miss can still see beings who have a body in the world like me!” putting on a big smile in front of Shanika.

“Hm... true too, thank goodness!” shanika replied as she returned Gavin's smile with a faint smile.

After seeing Shanika smile and slightly melt the atmosphere around her, not long after Gavin again said “What Miss wants me to find out about Miss Zoya?” that second also made Shanika look back at him and say “A - can you do that?” with his ragana feeling.

“Of course, leave everything to me!” gavin replied with great enthusiasm.

The next day, Shanika was told by a male doctor who said that Xyan's surgery had gone smoothly. But, because Xyan was unconscious, Shanika was constantly worried as well as feeling very scared.

Until a few minutes later Gavin comes and tells Shanika about Zoya who is currently missing without a trace “How can it be lost without such a trace? He is a very strong devil!” shanika was shocked with her confused expression.

“I don't know about that either, only the Lord Death Angel may know the answer. But, I also can't meet him.. Because he is an angel,” Gavin replied with his very serious expression and tone of speech to Shanika, that instant also made Shanika speechless and thought “At least, Zoya would not be able to disturb Xyan again,” with her lethargic feeling.

Not long after, after talking about Zoya with Shanika. Gavin walked up to Xyan, who was still sleeping, lying on his bed and wearing a drip around his wrist, like a terminally ill person.

“Sial!” gavin said with reflex, which immediately also made Shanika confused and rushed to step up to approach Gavin.

“A-what's up?” shanika asked with a feeling of worry, after she saw Gavin's reaction which was filled with her frustration.

Gavin who had not wanted to talk about Xyan's condition to Shanika, then also inevitably had to tell Shanika after he pulled and breathed regularly “Because the energy of Devil Master was exhausted, the soul or energy of the subconscious Master as a Devil begins to eat away at the soul of the human Master,” said Gavin slowly to be easily understood by Shanika.

“Yes? But, Doctor says...all is fine!” shanika said with her panicked face.

“Doctors won't be able to detect something like this with any powerful tool, Miss.” Reply Gavin with a tone of speech that is full of emphasis on Shanika.

Which at once also made Shanika more nervous and also afraid and while rubbing his hands that began to sweat, Shanika also again said “Ja-so.... what should we do?” with a glare at Gavin.

For a few seconds Gavin was silent and tried to turn his brain, until he again said “Ritual!” while plucking the finger of his right hand “Ritual? What do you mean?” shanika asked with a puzzled expression.

“I have to open a portal to the world of darkness by ritual, to bring Master in there! Because from what I know, a Devil who lost his strength can recover quickly if he is in the world of darkness!” gavin said at length to Shanika with his facial expression filled with his own convictions.

“A-what's the only way to save Xyan?” shanika asked again with her eyes increasingly attached to Gavin.

“True... although I have to sacrifice my safety and lose the soul of the whole Master,” replied Gavin with a tone of speech that increasingly swallowed when talking to Shanika, who is not a human being, while trying to take his eyes off Shanika's face as well.

Shanika who could still hear Gavin's words faintly, reflexively said again “Tu-wait! What did you say just now? Explain it better!” pinta Shanika with her tone of speech that suddenly slightly raised.

“I said.. Sir could survive. But, most likely... The master will become a complete Devil!” gavin replied with a loud tone and could be heard very clearly in Shanika's ears, which immediately also made Shanika slightly jerked and reflexively turned her head towards Xyan who was still lying limp on her hospital bed.

That instant too, Shanika fell silent. From the beginning he had indeed accepted Xyan as a half-demon human. But, he never imagined the figure of Xyan being a complete Devil, Shanika even felt a little afraid that Xyan would change her attitude to be like her half-brother Zoya.

“I don't want to let go of Xyan. But, Shanika's inner” was filled with feelings of doubt as well as sadness because there was no other choice.

“Ba-how is this?” inner Shanika again with a feeling that became very tight and that second also made Shanika's legs suddenly become very limp.
