Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter III Chapter 95

When the oni woman opened her eyes, Cecilion decided to come forward to deal with the female deemon himself. A fierce battle ensued between them. At first the woman made an illusion over a wide distance. He took the whole person in the room to a place full of swords.

Feeling slighted after seeing the woman's ability, Cecilion began to act. He attacked using various techniques and magic but the female deemon managed to withstand all his attacks. Despite being showered with magic continuously in succession, Iris saw the woman's expression unmoved and remained relaxed. It was as if the strength of the Cecilion was nothing more in his eyes.

In the end, after the female deemon had felt enough of the opportunity he had given Cecilion, it was time for his turn to attack.

The movement was really fast, even the eyes were hard to follow.

The female deemon created a sword that pierced Cecilion so strongly that it fell to the ground. Then he created four more swords and with those four swords, it was like locking Cecilion's movements.

Cecilion. From her voice, it seemed that the female deemon had managed to defeat Cecilion.

"He..won." Iris looked at the helpless Cecilion. The female Deemon turned around and walked towards him. Both of her lips were slightly rubbing a faint smile at Iris.

"He smiled at me? Why is he here? Don't-don't-can't be!" Iris panicked, but she couldn't move. Cecilion's magic still shackled him.

Will the female deemon end it as well?

Iris was startled as her unmoved eyes began to look near the face of the female deemon.

"Bas reckless, you always make me anxious." Said the woman's deemon plan in front of her and she placed her two fingers on Iris' forehead.

Why does he sound so familiar? Since when, does he really recognize me?

When the woman placed her two fingers on Iris' forehead. An energy entered his body and broke the Cecilion magic.

"Well, now you can move freely." Said the woman again gently and a sweet smile on her face. The female Deemon then rubbed Iris' head slowly.

"You...Who?" Iris looked at the female deemon's eyes well. He never remembered any of his acquaintances from the demon race. How could the woman sound so familiar when talking to him.

The woman chuckled and flicking Iris' forehead made her moan in pain. "Did you remember?" He asked with a smile.

Iris rubbed her slightly sore forehead. For a moment he remembered something. The smile and the forehead opened his eyes. The only person who had always been nudging her forehead all this time was none other than Alicia Lein Strongfort. "Sister...?" His mouth murmured with a whisper. He lifted his face and looked at the female deemon with teary eyes.

Alicia Lein Strongfort sighed then took off her disguised glasses. The demon figure of the oni tribe changed into the human that Iris had been looking for all this time. Her face was still so charming, her golden yellow hair was still resplendent with resplendence. Yes, no doubt, the one standing in front of her was her brother.

"Sister!"

Alice held onto Iris who jumped into her arms. Her spoiled sister why could she be in such a dangerous place. When he wanted to question Iris who sobbed haru in his arms. Nyx suddenly shouted in her head. "Alice! Lusty!"

"What's Nyx?"

Nyx then appears in the form of a shadow. It shows a fractured dimensional gap. "There! I can feel the energy from the Regnum continent there. Go in there and you'll go back to your house."

Alice's eyes looked at the place Nyx pointed to. It was the remnant energy from the teleportation gate trigger crystal belonging to the demon king's castle. Rose once said about its shape. Of the four dimensional portals. Nyx only pointed one way, it meant the other three portals had been damaged or in other words unstable.

Hearing Nyx's warning, Alice pulls Iris from her embrace. "You need to get out of here. This place will soon be destroyed."

"Then, what about you?"

"I'm..." Alice really wants to be back with Iris. But he couldn't leave his daughter. He must find Echidna immediately. Although she is not his biological child but Echidna already he considered as the daughter he loved.

".... I still have something to finish here."

Sontak Iris. Wh why? What's he gonna finish?

"Hurry, help the other humans to return to their homes. With my strength, I can still hold this place for a while."

Iris shook her head in disbelief. She wanted Alice to come with her. Iris stood up and pulled Alice's hand so that she would come back to the land of the humans. Alice shook her head as well. He stood up straight and looked at the faces of the slaves belonging to Cecilion who were made up of several different races. They look worried and scared. Alice believes that they also suffered a fate that is not much different from her sister.

Alice let go of Iris's grasp. He fused his two palms together and released such a huge Qi energy. His Qi broke their slave seal and held the place down even if not for a long period of time.

Tears flowed from the corner of Iris's eyes, she saw Alice reluctantly leaving. Alice walked up to Iris, she rubbed her tears gently. "Don't cry. Soon you will debut into adulthood. I'll be fine for sure. I can't go home because I have to find someone valuable. Go home and tell mom and dad that I'm okay."

Alice held onto both of Iris's shoulders and twisted her body to face the dimensional portal. While the other humans who were in that place had first entered one by one. Alice wrapped her arms around Iris' neck. Then he hugged her.

Iris was breathing strongly trying to hold back her cries. When she heard Alice say something about a precious person, Iris remembered that her older sister had also come here to save her daughter.

"alright. But when you get home, you have to tell me a lot about your adventures."

"Yes."

"And don't forget to explain to us what your daughter meant."

"Umm. Hm? Uh..?!" Alice let go of her embrace, she scratched the side of her cheek. He did not expect that Iris would hear that. Alice turned her face away and began to feel awkward. When he glanced and saw Iris eyes that seemed to demand an explanation. Alice took her eyes. "So- Anyway, you hurry back and protect our family. Don't forget to tell mom to keep eating and resting regularly." He said while pushing Iris' back.

That shyness made Iris feel relieved. Her brother did not change even though they had been separated for quite a long time. At least she is not what she used to be and right now standing before her is the strong woman she once admired as a child and will continue to be.

The two waved hands before parting ways. Iris foot stepped through that dimensional portal and a moment later, the place shook. The trigger crystal that was supposed to hold the dimensional portal ended up cracking due to the distortion of space and time. Alice by leading some of the Cecilion's former slaves, ran out of the place.
