She Belongs To The Devil

Chapter 328 - Gate To Hell

Though Lillian was wounded from that attack by Sybil, she did not faint this time.

However, she pretended that she had fainted because she was in a tight spot. She felt that she was tied down to the ground by branches enhanced in strength with magic. And it would take her at least a few seconds to get herself out of it.

And she knew that if she had not pretended to faint, then the witch watching over her would smash her head into a pulp.

"I shouldn't have taken these witches lightly. I should have finished the whole coven when I had the chance. I should have finished them years ago when I found out that they had infiltrated the Palace," Lillian thought to herself while trying to endure the pain in her head.

Lillian then chanted the incantations in her heart to free herself from the branches. But it looked like she had underestimated the power of Sybil.

As the branches were acting as the extended part of Sybil herself, she could feel something trying to penetrate through the branches.

"Who is using the magic? Is she not out cold?" Sybil leaned a bit closer to Lillian's face, suspecting that she was in her conscious state.

And true enough, Sybil noticed Lilian's eyeballs moving in reaction to that sudden closeness from her.

"You b*tch! You were trying to fool me again?" Sybil furiously screamed in her mind. And her heart was filled with rage all over again when she recalled how Lillian had fooled her before as well.

"I was just going to keep you unconscious and then send you to the Palace's dungeon. But you asked for it..." Sybil thought to herself and before Lillian could complete whatever spell that she was going to cast, Sybil spread her arms with an intention to torture Lillian.

She aggressively pushed her palm upward as though she was holding something very heavy. And as she did that, Lillian's pain-filled screams resounded far and wide.

Even Edwin could hear his mother's gut-wrenching scream.

The branches were now not just wrapped around Lillian's body, but they were sprouting while piercing through her legs.

Lillian could feel her muscles getting pierced and she was in indescribable pain. She was screaming and cursing Sybil, "Why are you torturing me like this, you mad woman! Do you think I will keep on lying here? Do you think I cannot get out of this filthy trick of yours?"

But that only provoked Sybil to hurt her arms as well. She was careful not to pierce Lillian's vital organs. Leaving the vital organs, she didn't leave any other places.

Lillian was in so much pain that tears involuntarily rolled down her temples. She wanted to use a counter spell but there was nothing much that she could do. If she was to burn the branches, she would burn along with it. And if she was to absorb the life force of the tree, the dead branches would still remain inside her body.

She glared at Sybil and finally broke down, "Just kill me already and get it over with. Kill me!"

"You won't get that easy death, you vile serpent!" Sybil screamed back in her mind and kept on hurting Lillian.

Lillian was screaming and writhing in agony. The pain was getting too much for her and she wished that Sybil would just kill her with one swift movement rather than torturing her.

Edwin was starting to get haunted by his mother's scream. He was unable to see what was causing so much pain to his mother. And not knowing it was even adding up to his guilty conscience. 

So he ordered his guards, "Let's head over there. I want to see what is going on."

Though the guards were against the idea of going closer to where all the action was happening, they couldn't say no to his request considering the fact that his mother was the one being tortured. So, all of them began to head closer to where Lillian's guards were.

Lillian, on the other hand, tried to provoke Sybil into killing her, "Didn't you see how I killed that little witch of your coven? Don't you want to do the same to me? Come on! All you need to do is break my neck."

Tired of her blabbering, Sybil nonchalantly made Lillian's mouth go numb.

Lillian kept on twisting and turning her head in pain. That was when she noticed a white piece of cloth that was hanging from a tree branch. She immediately recognized it as her ticket out of the hell that she was in right now.

A spark of hope and a will to live rekindled in her heart again. "That's it!" she thought to herself in between her screams.

During all that shaking and slamming of Lillian at the beginning of the fight, Sybil and the others failed to notice that a piece of white cloth had fallen out of Lillian's pocket and got stuck on a tree. Or maybe even if they did notice, they might have just thought that it was nothing but a handkerchief. 

Lillian instantly began to work on getting herself out of the situation that she was stuck in. She endured the excruciating pain that she was currently feeling and instead, focused on unleashing her ultimate attack.

She acted as though she had given up on herself and blankly stared at a vacant space. While in her heart, she began performing the incantations.

Incantations to open the gates of Hell.

The white piece of cloth contained a magic circle which Lillian had drawn yesterday, just out of precaution for her trip. Its purpose was to assist the advanced level of summoning spells.

Her blood had already splattered everywhere in the vicinity during the fight. Even now, she was lying in her own pool of blood. Now, all she need to do was finish chanting the spell.

And lo and behold! The moment she would finish chanting the spell, she could summon as many creatures from Hell as she wanted to.

As a price though, she just would have to endure the pain that would be hundred times excruciating than what she was already feeling.

But that didn't matter to Lillian. She was going to endure the extra pain if it meant that she would be able to kill everyone near her, except her son.

Lillian was going to unleash the monsters, lower-level demons, ancient demons, and even vengeful spirits on Earth... whoever would be willing to answer to her summons.

Soon, the dark mist began hovering above Lillian and within no time, the mist began to swirl madly as if it would uproot all the trees in the vicinity.

Sybil realized that Lillian was performing some spell but she was a little too late.

After her magic attacks didn't work in stopping Lillian, she tried to use her own hand to smash her head like before. But she was thrown away as though there was some invisible barrier around Lillian. 

Because of the amount of dark energy that she was using right now, she had become invincible.

And in the next moment, the earth began to quake violently. The sky was covered with storm clouds, not just inside the barrier but everywhere. Even though it was noon, the whole sky turned dark as if it was already dusk.

Everyone who was watching Lillian now feared her even more. They were barely able to hold their ground because of the storm. Her guards thought that their whole clan was going to be wiped out.

Suddenly, a bright orange light shined from that piece of cloth. The light glowed brighter and larger until a huge enough portal was created right in the middle of the barrier.

On the other side of the portal, there lied the place of eternal damnation.

Yes, the portal was the gate to literal Hell.
