Chapter 26

It was so dark in this dungeon that even Amora couldn't see anything here. She was furious; her plan had failed completely. She was just one step away from getting Sandy and getting married to him. However, all her plans were thwarted by Alice. She had a very deep grudge against Alice.

It was useless to scream; no matter how loud, no one would hear her voice. This dungeon has also been sealed by Elena, so no one can enter here. This place was also guarded by some mystical creatures of the Vestinel region.

"Damn you, Alice! You've ruined all my beautiful plans to be with Sandy." Alice raged alone in the dungeon.

Suddenly, the voice of the witch Marie rang in her ears. She searched for the witch and asked her to appear.

"How does it feel to live in a dungeon?" asked Marie with a loud laugh.

"Why does bad luck always happen to me? Can't I be happy?"

"Because you're too proud and cunning, Amora," said the witch Marie.

A greenish-colored light appeared before Amora's eyes. She was confused as to why the witch Marie could enter the dungeon and meet her in person. This place had been sealed with Elena's power.

"You were able to get in here?" asked Amora, surprised.

"Why not? I have enormous power, and this seal is too weak for me."

Amora looked at Marie with eyes full of anger. "If you're so great, why don't you help me get out of here?"

"Oh, Amora, you still don't understand. I'm not here to help you, but to see you tormented in this dungeon. I just want to see how you get your comeuppance. You're always trying to ruin other people's lives just to get what you want, aren't you?" Marie laughed sarcastically and insulted Amora.

"Weren't you the one who helped me to commit that crime? Why are you blaming me?" Amora didn't accept being blamed by the witch Marie. "What do you want from me, Marie? I'm already in the worst place right now; nothing could be worse than this."

The witch Marie kept laughing at Amora's misfortune. Amora certainly felt that this was all unfair to her. She wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

"Marie, please get me out of this place right now." Amora had no other choice but to beg the witch Marie for help.

Apparently, the witch Marie ignored her request. What should she do to get out of this dungeon? Amora looked at the witch Marie with hope that she could help her out.

"I'm willing to do anything for you, as long as you're willing to get me out of this place," said Amora, who cried and kneeled before the witch Marie.

The witch Marie was so happy to see Amora submitting to her. Marie was silent for a while and then told Amora that she would help her get out of here on one condition. Amora immediately agreed to whatever the condition was without mentioning it.

Marie looked at Amora with a mysterious smile. Apparently, Amora was desperate, and Marie was her only helper.

"You're full of spirit, but remember, nothing in life is free. Every favor comes with a price. I'll help you get out of here."

"Alright, I accept any conditions," said a resigned Amora.

"I haven't even mentioned the terms to you yet. But you immediately said to agree?" said Marie.

"I'll agree, no matter what it is, as long as you're willing to get me out of this place."

Marie laughed harder and would fulfill Amora's request. Amora was very happy that her request would be granted soon. She felt Marie's witch power begin to surround her body. It then emitted a purple-black light. The dungeon room began to shake violently. 

The light grew brighter, and in an instant, Amora felt herself being pulled out of the dungeon. When the light died down, Amora was outside the dungeon. 

"I've freed you from the dungeon. Just remember, Amora, you've accepted whatever terms I want." The witch Marie said with a laugh.

"Alright, I won't break my promise to you."

With a furious pace, Amora wanted to meet Alice. Her grudge was still unpaid, and she wanted Alice's life to be taken. Along the way, her mind was filled with plans for revenge. 

One of the clan healers saw her free from the dungeon and wanted to report this to Elena. Amora acted quickly to take that person's life. 

"I want to take Alice's life tonight."

Without wasting any more time, Amora immediately darted quickly to where Alice was. After being freed by Marie, she would not waste another chance. Amora still couldn't accept the incident earlier that caused her to fail to marry Sandy. Alice had to pay for all her heartache.

She had already arrived in front of Alice's room. Amora summoned her strength to open the door. However, Alice was not there, but only Chiki.

"Amora? How come you're free now? Weren't you in the dungeon?"

"Nonsense!" Amora immediately ensnared Chiki with her magic power. She gained many times more power after being freed by Marie.

Amora also had a grudge against Chiki, as that woman had helped Alice a lot in getting Sandy. This time, she would not let Chiki go easily.

"I'll take you prisoner so I can kill Alice easily." Amora laughed loudly in front of Chiki.

"Don't expect you to kill Alice and make me your prisoner!" Just to speak, Chiki found it difficult because her neck was entangled by Amora with magical power.

***

Alice and Sandy woke up immediately when they heard an explosion outside. They went outside and saw that something was wrong. She looked at Elena, who looked agitated.

"How did Amora get free so easily?" Elena's gaze fell on Amora, who was quite close to her.

She was very surprised to see Amora coming together with Chiki. Chiki's neck was strangled by Amora's magical power. The woman was furious.

"Amora, please, let Chiki go now!" said Alice, who asked Amora to put Chiki down.

"Are you begging me to let Chiki go?" asked Amora with a sinister look on her face. "I'll kill her right now."

"No!" Alice shouted and looked at Chiki, who was in pain.

Amora looked at Sandy. Sandy was immediately in front of Alice to protect her.

"Don't expect you to hurt Alice again," said Sandy, who tried to protect her.

She could feel that Amora's strength was now much greater than before. What made Amora so strong? 

"You all have no right to stop me. I'm already burning with vengeance," Amora said with a voice full of anger and her gaze fixed on Alice.

Sandy stood tall, ready to protect Alice. "If that's what you want, then we have no choice but to fight you," Sandy said as he prepared his magical powers to attack Amora.

On the other hand, Chiki struggled in Amora's chokehold, who looked in great pain. Alice, with a face full of worry, tried to find a way to save her best friend from Amora's magic power.

"I know you're angry and hold a grudge against me. But will sacrificing Chiki's life really solve this problem? What's the point of revenge if it will only add to your suffering?"

Amora grew even angrier. Her eyes lit up with a purple-black color, indicating that her magical power was growing. Alice and the others tried to find a way out.

"There seems to be no other way but to fight her." Elena prepared to unleash a large amount of power.

Alice saw the weakened look on Chiki's face. Perhaps her best friend wouldn't be able to survive much longer if she hesitated to attack Amora now. Elena was right; there was no other way but to fight that woman. With the situation getting more urgent like this, if she was slow to act, Chiki might not survive. 

"Elena, Sandy, and the others get ready. We have to fight for Chiki's safety and to stop Amora before she makes the mess even bigger." Said Alice, who looked stern, giving orders.

"If you dare to resist, then I will show you no mercy." Amora stared intently at Alice and Elena.

Alice didn't want this conflict to escalate. She knew that Amora hated her. Elena and Sandy came forward simultaneously and unleashed their power.

"You guys are really brave. But this will be the biggest mistake of your lives." Amora moved one hand, bringing out a dark energy that enveloped the surrounding area, causing Elena and Sandy to bounce back.

Alice, who saw this, immediately approached Elena and Sandy. The team members of the healing clan also attacked Amora. However, Amora's current strength was so much stronger that they were overwhelmed.

"What exactly has happened?" asked Elena while holding her chest in pain.

Suddenly, Amora knocked Chiki's body to the ground. Chiki was now very weak and unconscious. She immediately screamed because she couldn't bear to see her best friend's suffering so clearly in front of her eyes.

Elena immediately pulled Chiki's body using magical powers and immediately gave her a healing aura. Sandy looked worried about Chiki. 

"Chiki, hold on." Alice begged Elena to save Chiki's life.

Alice felt unacceptable about Amora's actions. She was currently burning with the fire of battle. If this was what Amora wanted, then she would grant it.

Suddenly, a dark light appeared in front of her. A mysterious figure wearing a black robe was standing next to Amora. All eyes looked at the newly arrived figure.

"It's you?"
