Chapter 489: DON’T YOU THINK SHE IS AWESOME?

"Haco, do you know what I should do? Or, why they are here?" Iris glanced at those warriors, who were seemingly waiting for her to do something. She was afraid to look at them, because she was scared that she might find the faces that she was fond of.

Knowing Ethan, Jace and Hanna were not among them was already enough for her, though it didn’t make her less heartbroken and mournful to see some of the warriors she knew.

"From what I know, the first Serafim used to offer them comfort," Haco said.

"Comfort? How can I do that?"

Haco shook his head. "I don’t know, Iris. I have been away from the Holy Kingdom for five decades."

On the other hand, Oliver and Eron were trying to catch up with the conversation, though it only confused them further, considering all the things that were being said.

"Let your instincts guide you as to what to do." Haco couldn’t offer much of a solution, since he was also clueless. His knowledge about the Serafim and the Holy Kingdom was from his past memories from a long time ago.

"How can I offer them comfort?" Iris asked in a small voice and braced herself to look at those warriors once again. They were still standing in the same place, waiting for her, not saying anything. There were so many of them. About five hundred? The number came to her mind readily, as if she could feel it in her heart.

Iris stood up, but Cane grabbed her hand. "Where are you going? It might be dangerous. Don’t go."

Somehow, Cane became a little bit clingy with her, he became overly possessive and protective. He showed his emotions so openly and it was not usual for someone like him to do so. Probably because he was too exhausted, thus he didn’t have the energy to put up a front and let his emotions flow like an open dam.

"It’s okay, Cane. Those people are the spirits of your people. They can’t do anything."

Cane clenched his jaw when he heard the way Iris addressed those spirits as his people. She still didn’t feel like she belonged to the pack and the possibility that that bastard Rei could snatch her away again dreaded him.

Cane pushed himself off the ground and held her hand. "Where are they?" He asked. It was not that he didn’t feel anything about losing his people, but he was utterly spent to even mourn them. Not to mention Cane couldn’t see them. It didn’t affect him the way it affected Iris.

Realizing Cane’s intention, she walked toward the line of the trees, approaching those spirits. Their expressions looked sad and the sight made Iris feel like someone just squeezed her heart tightly.

She stopped in front of one of the warriors. He was a young warrior she used to see with Joel, but to her relief, Joel was not among these spirits. She felt so bad to feel this, as these warriors lost their lives unexpectedly.

"I don’t know what to do..." Iris said in a sad tone and Cane didn’t say anything, he realized she was talking to these spirits.

Somehow, he believed her when she said she was seeing spirits of the dead shifters, his warriors, who didn’t make it to the end of the battle, though he couldn’t see them.

At this point, Iris could say the sun rose from the north and he would believe her nonetheless.

"What should I do?"

Cane couldn’t offer a solution for her, because this was something that he had no knowledge of, but there was someone else, who could tell her what to do.

No matter how reluctant Cane was, or how much he hated to give it up, there was nothing he wouldn’t do for her. More so, this was his people, their people, they were in the question.

Cane closed his eyes for a moment and when he opened them, his black eyes had turned bright red.

Wordlessly, Lu slid his palms along her arms until he was holding her hands. With her both palms facing upward, they could see this white light flicker in the air, as if she ignited it somehow with the help of the lycan.

Iris blinked her eyes, she was surprised to see this. She did this before, but it didn’t cross her mind this was something that she should do, more so, how Cane knew about this.

But, she got the answer when she tilted her head upward and saw his red eyes, but this time, the lycan looked more serious than ever. He didn’t sound unreasonable when he spoke either.

"Scatter it," Lu said softly, as he stood behind Iris, telling her what to do at this moment.

"How can I scatter it?" Iris asked. She immediately realized it was Lu, who was taking control of Cane’s body, which meant the Alpha had given up his control to the lycan... and this time, he did it willingly. Again.

"Just imagine it," Lu said.

Iris could feel his palms framing hers were so cold, while her back was firmly pressed against his. She looked so confused as to what to do, but then she heard his instruction again and followed her instinct.

On the other hand, Oliver and Eron were stunned, they were at a loss as to what Iris was doing. Even though they had seen this before, this time, they could see it much more clearly.

"What is she doing?" Oliver walked closer to Haco, as he asked the sorcerer, who seemed to have a better grip on this situation.

"She is trying to comfort the spirits."

"What? What does that mean?" Oliver was at a loss.

So was Eron, but he was more in awe about what his luna could do. All of them thought she was only a runt, who could do nothing.

But then, Eron learned how her kindness and her patience had contributed to their alpha’s plan, especially when she taught them how to write and read.

And now.... she could do magic too?

"Don’t you think our luna is full of surprises?" Eron mumbled, his voice dripped with fascination.
