The Journey To The Brockleheart Sky

The Journey To The Brockleheart Sky
Chapter 12: For Goodness



The wound that had seemed to improve, now slowly felt a little sore. Seeing his father's condition that was still in pain, Mary could only scatter into the arms of Herms.


Several times Marry tried to touch her necklace, hoping the strange light would relieve Herms' pain. But this time, the necklace did not react.


That made Mary desperate. Holding back a handful of grief, Marry ransacked Herms into the room next to the library. He laid the bigger body on his aunt's little bed.


Now, waiting for Alena is their chance. Only Alena can help him get to Laura Quirkell. Aunt who never met, but began to be missed by Marry.


Unichowo. Marry's nose reacted to the delicious aroma. It seems, the house is really alive, sometimes Marry can smell the aroma of baked potatoes, and peanut butter honey bread, as well as the smell of crunchy cheese sown on top of chocolate waffles.


Either his stomach or his head are imagining at this time. Marry sat down next to the bed and fell asleep hungry. While Herms was still motionless, it seemed to faint and Marry was unaware of it.


***


Susan Smith searched for Herms and Marry for a week, but it was all for nothing.


Black Shadow calmed down in Marry's search, instead of looking for Marry who had gone missing somewhere, he drank new blood every day. This is certainly not in line with Susan, she is so eager to find the father-son and kill them with her own hands.


"Hows it? Have you found any traces of him?" Susan told me what was on her mind.


"I'm sorry madam, Black Shadow doesn't want to be involved in the search anymore. He doesn't like to linger, I won't look for him without Black Shadow's permission" the brown-robed man left and flew into a red bat.


"He's it! He just wanted Marry's blood but didn't want to look for it, I was really stupid. But wait a minute, Jenny must know something, lately she's always locked herself in her room." Susan rushed to Jennifer.


***


"What are you doing? You didn't even eat?" susan looked at Jenny's pale face. Jennifer was petrified in this small room, not even tasteful to hear the voice of the woman she called mother every day.


"eat? Should I eat human flesh too? It wasn't enough to drink his blood and now I have to eat it too." Finally talking, Jenny even made Susan furious.


"Jennifer!"


"I still can't believe you're doing all that for yourself. You told me that taking Marry's blood could get him to talk again. It'll help get rid of the chocolate poison you gave her when she was a baby. Butwhat? You're a big liar!" Jennifer's look was very upset.


"I'm sorry mom! But did you think of anything? About where your father went? It's been a week and there hasn't been any sign of him or Marry." Susan tries to figure out the direction of her daughter's mind, no matter what Jennifer feels.


"Sorry mother, you shouldn't have come to me. Do you think you can track them by reading my mind? Come to Black Shadow! Wait a minute, are you abandoned now? Unfortunately mother!" Her lips were small, Susan's sign of weakness.


"Jenny!" Susan was very upset.


A purplish blue line grew around his face, the lens of the eye turning reddish. His breathing was slightly wheezed, occasionally he swallowed saliva. Hoping it wouldn't hurt Jenny and decided to leave the room.


***


Susan stood in front of the old cave, waiting for the red bat. Shortly after, a red bat landed in front of him. All at once, become a brown-robed man. Not very handsome, but enough to assume he's a normal human being.


"He let you in!" said instantly.


Sue steadied her feet forward facing Black Shadow.


"Professor? Hmmmm? What's a good thing? Why did you suddenly call me that? What do you want?" Black Shadow turned away.


"Please don't leave me like this, let the bats go back to looking for Herms. I'll do anything for you, let me find Marry. We do not need his blood. Even if you kill a thousand people, it will not replace the blood of a Dahlia. Blood of immortality, please don't stop like this."


"Sue, this is the real you! You just weakened in front of your daughter, give her Hippno magic!" black Shadow suddenly.


"What do you mean?"


"Read his mind! If you don't want to use Hippno on your daughter! He can't be of any use! Your daughter and Marry's thoughts are connected."


"I've read his mind, still can't. Please, not magic. It would be very dangerous for my daughter. I believe in you! It's not as easy as looking for padma 15 years ago. Her daughter is so much stronger, I'm sure Marrietta is the one who protected Herms!"


"The padma? Did you just say her name?" sidelines Black shadow realizes something.


Her memory floated for a moment, recalling the white woman she had eaten a dozen years ago. Padma, a Florenese born. Born from the womb of a Dahlia, she was destined to be the mother of the Dahlia.


"What's wrong?" Sue curious.


"There are only two places for them to hide. First, the Quirkell family residence and the second the forest request. The Wish Forest, they must be there. Isn't that where the killer bat found Padma first?"


"Huh? You're absolutely right, why don't we think about it!"


Black shadow opened his head cover and touched the white hair.


"Dravis, bring Jenny to me!" he shouted with a gaze that made Susan Smith swallow her saliva several times.


"What's? Nah! Don't use my daughter!"


"Sue, you also let me use your daughter when she was a baby. He's an adult, his desire to meet Marry can be realized there. Bring Miss Goldstein to me, Dravis!" his smile was in the mist.


The man she called Dravis bowed a few times and walked towards Susan. The brown-robed man, looked at susan with a cold gaze and flew into his true form. Dravis used to work as a clerk in the old house of Herms and Padma, but only as a spy for Black Shadow.


Susan was indeed able to breathe a little sigh of relief, her revenge still continued, all she needed was Herms. All this for Oliver Goldstein, her ex-husband. At least the chance to witness Herms' death because of the knife, Susan could do.


It was fun to finally meet Black Shadow, at least Susan had an ally. In the end, Jennifer was the one who decided their next move.


***


Susan went back to her house. He is angry about the consequences that will befall his favorite daughter.


The red bat perched right in front of Jennifer's room window. Susan believes that this is all for their good. She takes heart, and chooses to sacrifice Jennifer as bait for their revenge.
