Chapter-79. Past returns

[Raven]

"Forbidden! Forbidden!"

"Unacceptable!"

"Absolutely not!"

"We will never approve of this! Never!"

"A mortal as a luna candidate!? Preposterous!"

"This is against our law! This completely mocks the rules of our pack. Not just our pack, but all the immortals!"

"There are limits that even an alpha isn't allowed to cross!"

"This is taboo!"

"The council will never approve of this!"

Ezra's announcement caused an uproar that kept getting worse. All the elders stood, banging their benches and yelling their disapproval.

The chaos became so deafening and uncontrollable that their microphones had to be turned off.

I glanced at Asher as he teleported beside Isagi on the balcony.

Viella glared at Ezra with every strand of her hair turned into active, hissing snakes.

Isagi's warnings drowned under the council's clamor.

And amidst all this stood Ezra, fearless and strangely - calm.

"Don't tell me he isn't done yet," Nyssa mumbled.

'Raven, take Ezra out of here,' Asher mindlinked with me.

I was about to teleport near Ezra when he mindlinked with Asher and me.

'I told you I will handle this myself. You two, stay out of it. This is a conscious decision that I have made with full awareness of the consequences.' Tensing up, I frowned at him.

A conscious decision?

"Everyone. Shut your damn mouths and listen-"

Ezra mumbled, keeping his head low.

"Why!?" someone yelled.

"Why, you ask?" He chuckled, tilting his head slowly. With a red flash, his dark crimson eyes locked on the elder who had questioned him. "Why don't you tell me why?"

The elder's eyes petrified as though he had turned into a stone. The next second, his body hurled into the air, crashing into several floating chandeliers.

Soon, the noise in the hall was overwhelmed with the chiming and shattering of the glass as the twinkling shards drizzled down on the council. One sway of Ezra's hand created a wave in the air that turned the shards into glass dust that floated around like a sparkling fog.

"AHHHHH!"

The scream drew everyone's attention towards the elder again. The elder, who floated limply on the chandelier with its pointed center, pierced through his guts.

His blood flowed down the chandelier, dripping on the dais as the chandelier floated closer to Ezra.

I heard the silence tremble as it settled over the hall like a suffocating blanket. All the commotion seized at once.
