SPELLBOUND Chapter 480 - Call Them All

Chapter 480 - Call Them All

There was a slight disbelief in Gavriel's smile. He already knew that his real parents were in this realm. He had already mentally prepared himself that he was going to meet them this time when he came through the portal. But what he did not expect was, reuniting with a parent for the first time would actually feel like this.

Gavriel's eyes looked behind his father as though looking for another person and Belial spoke as he saw his son's wondering eyes.

"Your mother is not here at the moment. Ah… she's going to get jealous of me again that I met up with you first before her." Belial chuckled but his eyes contained traces of becoming quite emotional as well. "Your mother would be crying right now if she were to be here. She's been longing for you ever since you left many years ago." King Belial's voice softened at the end.

Gavriel looked like he did not know what to say so Belial patted his son's shoulder again in a rea.s.suring move.

"It's alright son. I know you don't remember a thing about your earlier life as Gavrael." Belial said, and there was understanding and concern in his eyes. "Your mother's aware of that as well so you don't have to worry about anything. We fully understand your situation, my son."

Those words made Gavriel breathed out in relief. He did not realise how much he had hoped for those words until he heard his father said it. But abruptly, his face became serious. "My wife, Queen Evielyn, is she here?"

"Ah, you don't have to worry about her. My lovely daughter-in-law is with your mother." King Belial's smile was so wide that his eyes were crinkled into crescents. It was obvious he was mightily pleased with his daughter-in-law.

Relief washed over Gavriel at the rea.s.surance in the Belial's voice.

"Where are they? I want to see her… them."

"Forgive me, son, but they're not here right now. They're currently together right now and your older brother is with them."

Gavriel's brows creased in curiosity. "My older brother…" He did not expect to hear this.

"Yes son, you have an older brother. His name is Gideon. You used to be so fond of him when you were younger. It's too bad, but I can't call them back here to the palace right now."

"Why?"

Belial looked around. His gaze fell to Gavriel's men who were standing at attention behind him, and the men immediately greeted him with a bow. Belial smiled at them.

"You have a bunch of great men with you," he commented before he turned to his attendant.

"Take good care of the guests," he ordered and the dark fae nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty," the servant bowed then politely gestured to Gavriel's men to follow after him.

Understanding that Belial wanted to speak with him privately, Gavriel nodded at his men to give them the permission to leave, and they followed the dark fae servant.

When the father and son were alone in the throne hall, the atmosphere became a bit serious.

"Because the Great City isn't safe right now." Belial told Gavriel. "In fact, I just found out the entire Under Land isn't safe anymore... we might be facing a great calamity soon."

Gavriel's expression became a bit even more serious. Feeling the severity of what his father was talking about, his own aura tuned heavier.

"I wish our reunion was not done like this and in this situation. It would be nice if we could have sat down and have drinks together for one whole night to celebrate your return." Belial sighed. "But right now, there seemed to a great war looming around and Evie, your wife, had recently sent me an emergency message about her nightmare. And I am sure you know about her dreams, right?"

"Evie had another nightmare?!" Gavriel's eyes widened.

"Yes. And she had sent word saying she had seen destruction so huge that the Under Lands had been brought to total ruins by countless monsters." Belial responded in a worried tone.

"My wife's nightmares… they're not even right to be called nightmares. They are literally visions! All her nightmares always happen! She had never been wrong about those visions yet." Gavriel felt his heart race hearing that she had yet another vision. And by the sounds of it, this was a horrifying one.

"Yes, she had told me about that. And she even saw the monsters reaching as far as the surface too. That only means we, the entire realm of dark faes would lose the war and the monsters managed to get past us. And that's why I think we truly are in trouble this time around. Especially since our enemy does not seem to be something that could be killed."

"What do you mean, father?"

"According to Queen Evielyn's nightmare, she saw countless monsters emerging from the Abyss of Darkness. I believe that based off the results of her vision, we weren't able to hold out due to the sheer number of monsters pouring out endlessly from the chasm. So our enemy is the abyss itself. Our only chance to stop the destruction must be to stop the monsters from coming out in the first place. But the biggest question is how do we do that? If it's a creature breeding or creating monsters out, we could aim for that one sole creature. But it seems that might not be the case as we have reasons to believe that the abyss is a portal leading to another dimension or to a world of monsters."

"Then… the only way to resolve this might be to seal it or destroy it. The portal, I mean." Gavriel responded, and Belial was silenced. Then a proud smile curved on his lips as he looked at his son. He seemed happy that his son had the same thoughts as how he did. This son of his indeed had grown so much. If this was Gavrael's mindset, he might have gone ahead and jumped into the portal on his own, recklessly and with abandon.

"That's a great idea, son! I believe that must be our best option right now. Now the question is how much magic and power will it take to seal or destroy something that had been there for countless years."

The father and son fell silent again, both of them pondering on this issue. When their eyes met, they could tell the solution they both have in their minds. Their wives. Gavriel just felt like Evie's involvement will be crucial in this matter. Not only because of her vision and her ability to see upcoming disasters, but because Gavriel just believes that there's always a reason she had to be the one to receive that vision. He had seen it over and over again, that Evie will always be a part of the major events such as this no matter how much he would try to stop her from being involved. Belial on the other hand, also couldn't help but think of his wife. Beatrice had a peculiar ability to formulate solutions for problems out of scratch. She cannot use magic but in her stay in the Under Lands, she was probably one of the most knowledgeable if not the best when it comes to spells. She could even create incredible and never seen before spells or modify used before spells. Sometimes, Belial himself was scared of what else she could do. In his heart, he knew her abilities would be needed in this situation.

But the two of them have a look in their eyes that were exactly the same. Worry and fear.

Seeing the exact same look in their eyes, the father and son smiled at each other and shook their heads almost simultaneously.

"This is a dilemma. We might need to call our wives here to save our a.s.sess from this ma.s.sive problem." Belial laughed in disbelief.

"I'm afraid that's the only way. And I'm quite sure that even if we don't call for them, they'll definitely show up without us knowing." Gavriel said knowingly and he smiled helplessly as he understood Evie very well.

Another helpless laugh escaped from Belial. "b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l… I can already see that happening if we insist on sending them away and not involving them."

Belial began to pace around slowly, thinking hard. And when he stopped, he seemed to have finally made up his mind. "I am going to send a word to call them all back here. I believe there is no use for them to hide in Yryzia anyway, as that city is still part of the Under Lands. Have you made up your mind, son?"

Gavriel could only nod despite the worry still gleaming in his eyes. "Yes. I want to see her."

"Alright." The king declared and called for Claudius to come over.
