Chapter 150 - The Blessed Ruler (2)
"No, no, no, NO!" Esmeralda screamed as her eyes came back into focus. She immediately got off her bed and exited her room as she knocked on Hela's door.
Hela opened her door to see a tear trickle down Esmeralda's cheeks as she looked at her in confusion.
Esmeralda suddenly pushed Hela inside as she closed the door behind her. She then moved forward and hugged her sister.
Hela didn't understand what was going but she gently patted her sister. After all, both of them were sisters by blood.
"Brother is dead Hela." Esmeralda said as Hela's expression hardened.
She had forgotten that Amon also had been her brother alongside Esmeralda's brother. But since she had gained her memories way earlier, she didn't have any feelings for him.
Esmeralda on the other hand still hadn't gained her memories back and still felt connected to Amon.
There was nothing Hela could do about it.
"Esmeralda, remember that people always leave you. I might leave you one day too so believe in yourself and your ability to survive." Hela said with a confident voice as she looked into Esmeralda's eyes.
She used to say this to Esmeralda when they were abandoned by their parents and Esmeralda understood her clearly.
She wiped away her tears and nodded as she went back to her room. Hela saw her door close away as she looked at it with a worried expression.
She then closed her own door and sat on her bed and started cultivating.
"I will avenge you brother." Esmeralda muttered to herself as she closed her door.
She had a feeling that something was wrong with her sister for quite some time but what happened now confirmed that it was true.
Though Hela wasn't that much close with Amon, she had still spread some time with him and they had shared some smiles.
But the Hela talking a few minutes ago didn't even look shocked by Amon's death. It was as though she already knew that it had happened.
"He must be the one who did this." Esmeralda thought about her encounter with Kai and how she had been charmed by him.
But after seeing his powers, she realized that it might have been because of a technique he had been using.
Perhaps all these women who followed him were under a spell and her sister had been caught in it too.
"I will free you from his spell. Just wait for me Hela." Esmeralda said as she opened the window in her room.
They were pretty high above the ground but it didn't matter since cultivators could fly. She took a deep breath and jumped out.
She rose in the air and went above the clouds to hide herself from any guard scouting for her. Most of the palace guards would be using their spiritual senses to look for intruders but Esmeralda's cultivation far outclassed their cultivation.
"The land of lightning huh. There should be a teleportation formation near the shore of the land of water that should be able to teleport me to the land of lightning. Wait for me Kai. I am coming to break your neck in half and free my sister and all those women from your spell." Esmeralda resolved as she went away.
Back at the palace, Hela opened Esmeralda's door with a sigh as she had heard her speak everything.
"How do people manage to think up such things?" Hela asked herself with a sigh as she went forward and closed Esmeralda's windows.
She could have just stopped the girl from leaving but that would make Esmeralda think that her theory was correct.
So instead, she just let the girl go away and find Kai. It would be better this way rather than imprisoning her.
"Kai, come here. I have something important to tell you." Hela said as the harem mark on her breast started to glow.

'Hmm, why is Hela calling me during the night?" Kai wondered as he looked up at the moon.
The three women were sleeping below in a hotel room Kai had rented while he was as usual awake and staring at the sky.
'On second thought, why do they love sleeping this much?' Kai thought as he teleported away to meet Hela.
It was a stupid thing to think since he already knew the answer to his own question.
Teleportation was the most easiest and free of cost way to travel and Kai had mastered this technique very early on.
Normal cultivators below a certain realm would have to use teleportation formations to travel between places on their realm and those formations costed too much money to power up.
Though there was another way to travel between places and that was with the help of space gates.
Space could also be used for inter-realm travel and the only requirement was that the space gate must be built at the same time in both places.
But only highly powerful clans and sects had space gates so the only option left for normal people was a teleportation formation.
Kai's teleportation was the most ideal way to travel between places but it also took a toll on both the bodies of the people traveling with Kai.
The longer the teleportation, the higher the toll.
That was why his beauties would often get exhausted after a long-ranged teleportation and would have to sleep to obtain their energy back.
Thinking about this, he appeared beside Hela who was still standing in Esmeralda's room.
"Esmeralda has run away and she is traveling to the land of lightning to kill you since she believes that you have all of us under a spell and that she is the only one who is safe." Hela said as Kai raised his eyebrows.
"That isn't a big problem. She can easily travel to the land of lightning and is strong enough to defeat any danger that might come her way." Kai replied as Hela nodded.
"Just make sure to not do it excessively." Hela said with sudden protectiveness as Kai smiled.
"Who could have guessed that you will feel like that for someone other than Aizza or the elemental rulers?" He said to her with a smile as he teleported away.
"Who indeed." Hela said to herself as she turned away and left Esmeralda's with a small smile.
