Chapter 857 - NUTDROUK

"Hm," Torak hummed, agreeing with him. His blue eyes stared at Raine dotingly, though they couldn\'t listen to their conversation, but from the looks of it, it seemed the two of them were not taken for granted by the dwarf and it reassured them.

Torak still remembered how was Raine back in the day, when she didn\'t even dare to talk and look at him in the eyes. However now, she could voice out what she wanted and what she thought, and Torak couldn\'t be more proud than this, watching her growth and progress.

Slowly, but surely she became the Luna that he needed.

On the other hand, the dwarf\'s smug smile slightly faltered when he picked himself up from the ground and dusted the dirt from his body.

"Do you remember that dream you have? The dream that make you sick? The blood that was drawn from your body without your consent and the kiss from the devil?" the dwarf looked at Raine sullenly. "You have three reasons for not being as pure as those guardian angels in the past. One thing from those three had tainted your soul, but you have faced all of them. You are the most impure guardian angel among you three," he explained it very fast, grumbling here and there.

Hope remembered Kace\'s explanation, when they talked about her being a guardian angel and the blood that was taken from her from the hospital when she was sick.

Lilac too, her blood was taken from her without her consent, but what about the other two for Raine…?

"A kiss from the devil?" Hope looked at Raine in confusion. "And, what dream?"

Raine remembered all of that and couldn\'t help but stagger back when the dwarf told all of that out loud.

"The devil kissed you?" Hope pressed this matter. "When?" but then, she remembered. "That was the reason you fainted that day?"

"Stop it," Raine said sternly. She didn\'t want to remember that moment. And the look on her face coerced Hope to stop bothering her with that question.

"See? You admitted it," the dwarf smirked triumphantly because he managed to pique the two guardian angels\' interest.

"What will happen then?" Hope asked the dwarf again, yet he shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and spoke smugly.

"I have been traveling for four days straight to get to this place from another realm, can\'t you at least show some concern about my well being and let me rest before bombarding me with a lot of questions?" the dwarf looked at the copper coin that he gave to Hope and Raine. "And, I have already paid to stay."

Simultaneously, Raine and Hope threw back the copper coin to the dwarf and turned around after Hope saying her piece.

"Take back your money, we don\'t need it. You can stay here as long as you prove yourself worth it, but if we ever came to know that you tricked us, don\'t even think about walking away unscathed," Hope said coldly. She learned this from Serefina and every time she wanted to be mean with someone, she would remember how the witch had raised her.

She missed her…

"Don\'t worry, you need me dearly since no one can teach you how to survive in this war, seeing that the witch left you," the dwarf said, he looked at Hope in the eyes, as if he could read her thoughts.

Hope squinted her eyes at him and grabbed Raine\'s hand before they both walked away toward their mates, yet the dwarf said something in a low and creepy tone.

"Do you still remember, what you see in the stone inside the library, when you went to Rieka?" the dwarf asked Raine. "Whatever you saw in it, will come true and I assume you already know what will happen to you. So did Lilac." Then the dwarf shifted his attention to Hope. "But, I am not sure about this, whether the witch had told you or not."

"Tell me what?" Hope asked, she looked at the dwarf and Raine back and forth questioningly.

"That we will die in order to win the war," Raine answered her solemnly.

Hope frowned. "I have heard that. But, why do we have to die in order to win the war? In what way would it help with gaining an upper hand?" she didn\'t really believe whatever she heard about this.

She heard the story about how the guardian angels were extinct centuries ago, from Kace, but from her knowledge, it was because Jedrek was being manipulated and those guardian angels were being treated poorly, thus they became the sacrifice for the war.

However, aside from that, it was not necessary for them to die in order to win the war.

"Your understanding is still shallow. Once you know the depth of this problem, you will understand that everything you see is not always the same thing that actually happened," the dwarf spoke in a deep voice. There was no mocking smile or smug look on his face now, he looked very serious when he said that.

"I hope you can enlighten us, sir…?" Raine ended her sentence in a question mark.

"You don\'t have to call me sir or know my name. I have known your mates for centuries and they didn\'t even bother to call me by name. You know, they didn\'t care for little things like these," there was a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"I am not my mate and I do want to know your name," Raine said softly. She knew what it felt when people around you didn\'t even care to know your name or even your existence.

The dwarf widened his big green eyes and his smug smile returned to his face. "Nutdrouk."

"Sir Nutdrouk," Raine said.

"I am not a \'sir\'," protested the dwarf.

"Nutdrouk," Raine corrected herself. "I hope you will keep your words to help us."

Ignoring what Raine said, Nutdrouk spoke. "It was nice to hear my name being called again."
