Dark clouds circulated around Nabi as gathered energy from her surrounding. Eva did the same. The vicious battled continued as both of them got serious injuries.

Nabi grabbed Eva before throwing her towards a mountain. As soon as she crashed onto the ground,Nabi rushed towards Eva to land a punch. But Eva was fast enough to dodge and Nabi's punch left a massive dent on the ground. Nabi continued to attack with her fists.

Somehow,they ended up destroying the whole mountain forest. Some parts were burning up like a wild fire.

Eva gritted her teeth as she poured a spiritual light into her palms as she lounged forward with pure killing intents.

Nabi really had enough as she saw the sun setting in the west. She watched the attack coming her way yet she stood still without dodging. She looked dead straight in Eva's eyes before closing them.

Seeing this,Eva forced herself to stop in the mid fight. Her palm with spiritual light was just an inch away from Nabi's face. Confused,she waited cautiously for a second. "Why did you stop?"

Nabi opened her eyes and heaved a sigh before wiping the blood away from her lips,"Eva,is it really that hard for you to let me save my family?"

Eva gritted her teeth,"Don't put the words like that! I'm saving the kingdom! Don't make me look like a scum here Nabi!"

Nabi was calm and collected,"You saved the kingdom nine times already. Is it that hard to let me win in this life time?"

Eva's eyes shook and she slightly loosened her composure. "But why do you have to destroy the kingdom?"

"Because.....",Nabi was hesitant as she looked at her side.

Eva,"Because?"

"That's the only way to lift the curse"

Eva lowered her hand as she stared at Nabi with a confused face. Nabi looked at her again.

"Eva.....you know.....you don't remember but I saved your life nine times already. In every life time,I saved you just like when we were kids. Also,....your brother....he was destined to die by my brother's hands but I saved him too. I saved him so many times already. And your parents,they are in hell. Ever since I took over the hell,I took them under my wings",Nabi had a very sad and sorrowful expression as she confessed her doings.

Eva had a frozen expression as if she couldn't believe her words.

"Your debt for me,it's bigger than you think. I did so many things for you only to get disappointed at the end of every life time. You took my brothers' lives without sparing a look at me. And never laid your hands to kill me. Though you intended to spare my life out of good will,it always felt like you were mocking me. I felt like you left me alive just to make me suffocate while looking at my family's destruction"

Eva took a staggering step back shaking her head. "N –No,I –I...."

Nabi removed her mask revealing her burnt face. It was another hit on the nail. "Look at my face Eva. I look ugly,ain't I?"

"W –What"

Nabi,"It's the Pendragon curse. Even at this moment,it hurts like hell. I'm burning from inside. My blood is literally boiling inside me. The more I hold onto this life,the more I get hurt. But...."

Eva couldn't speak at this moment. Her brain had gone numb. No thoughts as she stared at Nabi's burnt up face. She felt like her lungs were desperately asking for air yet she couldn't breath. She looked down at her palm when she felt a cold metal on her palm. A dagger. Nabi was holding her hand as she kept the dagger on her palm.

"Can you.....give me one chance Eva?",Nabi whispered painfully as she made Eva hold the dagger right above her own heart. A tear slipped down from Nabi's right eye. "I couldn't kill you for nine times because I genuinely cared for you but I have no choice today. Please....",She swallowed as next words escaped her lips painfully,"Please die"

Nabi pressed the tip of the dagger into Eva's chest slowly and Eva let her. Slowly,the dagger went in.

Eva winced as the pain rose up in her chest. But she couldn't bring herself to speak. Was it the guilt? Or the fact that she was indebted to Nabi more than she thought? Nabi had done so much for her. Thanks to her,Noah is still alive. Would dying for her repay her?

The tip reached her heart. Nabi paused and stared into Eva's eyes.

"Good bye.....Eva"

Gasp!

Eva felt the cold metal stabbing her heart. Was it the end? Her tears rolled down as she struggled to speak,"D –Did I —",she coughed up blood as she clutched into Nabi's shoulders. "Did I repay the debt now?"

Eva felt a shudder as she looked up at Nabi's crimson devious eyes. A malicious smirk crept into her lips,"Oh you did",Nabi pressed the dagger harder and hugged Eva. She chuckled as she stroked Eva's hair,"Oh my Eva,you really fell into my tears"

"W –What"

Nabi puffed out a laugh,"Don't worry sweetheart,everything I said were right. I did save you and your brother. But...look at where I brought you"

Nabi leaned towards her ear as she whispered,"Next time you receive help,think million times before receiving them. If you were to indebt to a jerk like me,things would get messy"

Nabi's smile vanished when she felt her last breath against her neck. "Hate me forever Eva. I deserve nothing but your hatred. I'm sorry for not being able to be a good friend",she placed Eva's body on the ground and removed the dagger from her heart. She looked at Eva's bloodshot teary dead eyes before closing them. "Rest in peace"

Not a second past,Eva's eyes snapped opened again with a gasp. But this time,her eyes had turned silver colour.

"Welcome Lucian",Nabi said as she stared right into the eyes.

Lucian had taken over Eva's body. But before he could even think,the ground beneath him started shaking. Lucian in Eva's body sat up straight but he couldn't stand up when some black wines pierced through the ground as they wrapped tightly around Eva's ankles. Black metal bars started rising from the soil ground and made a large cage imprisoning Lucian inside it. The cage looked like  a bird cage but this one was massive enough to imprison a person.

Nabi snickered. "Didn't like the party your sons brought up? I specially told them to treat you special"

Lucian growled as he attempted to break the bars but couldn't.

Nabi clicked her fingers and a shackle appeared on Eva's neck chaining her to the cage. "I knew that as soon as Orpheus killed you,you'd search for a body to contain your soul. Since you had already sent half of your powers to Eva,you chose her body"

Lucian,"And you deliberately acted like it was such a difficult task to kill Eva when you could have killed her with a snap of your finger"

Nabi pouted,"If I didn't do that,you wouldn't have choose Eva's body when it is right next to me"

"You fooled me into thinking your power was that much",Lucian stated with a snicker.

Nabi smiled maliciously,"Ding ding ding! Your guess is correct!"

"You vicious vixen! You think you can kill a God?! I can always find a host to contain my soul!",Lucian snapped.

"And that's why I prepared this special place in hell for you. You know this right,hell is specially made to burn evil souls. Be it evil or not,I can burn any souls now"

Lucian's face turned pale. "You can't do that! I'm this world's god! How dare a dirty Pendragon touch my soul!"

Nabi's face turned cold,"It's time to appoint a new god to this world"

Lucian,"And who is that?!"

Nabi chuckled,"You are literally infront of your god now"
