Chapter 150: Guilt
But after seeing that scene only one thought came to Jasmine\'s mind:
\' Lucian, is he safe? \' she took her mobile out and tried to call him but he obviously was not able to pick up then she dialled Scarlett\'s number but she too didn\'t pick up either.
Jasmine felt a strange and new kind of sensation in her chest something she has never felt before. She wasn\'t sure what it exactly was but she didn\'t like it one bit.
Without wasting a moment, Jasmine flew in the air and at an extremely fast speed she headed towards her house, any of the Xaru that came in her way was blasted to piece before it could even get close.
As she got closer, Jasmine saw fire on top of the building even from a long distance she could see that it was inside Lucian\'s room.
For a moment her body froze in the mid air, a dark and heavy feeling filling up her mind for the first time in such a long time she felt her heart beat getting faster and faster, until it reverberated all over her body.
But she came back to her senses in the next moment and flew towards the building directly towards Lucian\'s room, as she got closer she saw the Chasm which had opened right in front of their room and then she looked at the broken wall.
The entire room was engulfed by flames, even the wall was broken while cracks appeared around it, the Xarus were constantly rushing out of the Chasm and destroying everything in sight.
Jasmine\'s face still looked emotionless, even though all the Xarus were invisible but she could easily sense them all.
With just a thought several invisible threads of Fog rushed out of her body and towards all the Xarus that were around the building.
*POP* *POP* *POP* *POP* *POP*
Just as the invisible threads connected to the creatures\' body suddenly their bodies began to pop like a soap bubble, throwing their organs and flesh all around, whether they were 1st, 2nd or 3rd Phase didn\'t matter.
In just a moment Jasmine had killed hundreds of Xarus but more kept rushing out.
With a wave of her hand, the fire died down and the room was finally visible to her.
Jasmine walked inside.
She looked around and after a few moments at least she was sure that he had not died because of the blast or fire.
Concentrating as best as she could, Jasmine observed the room and even though the room was in shambles but she was still able to see a tiny hint of Lucian\'s blood on the burnt wall which was almost broken.
It was impossible for any normal human to detect even with all their technologies but her senses had far surpassed the human limits.
Jasmine\'s expression finally changed as her eyes narrowed and a frown appeared over her beautiful face, the feeling in her chest was getting intense making her wonder if this was what people call fear, the fear of losing someone.
With her senses Jasmine was able to locate Scarlett, who was busy killing the Xaru that had entered the building.
Almost all of the people working in the company were people who had not awakened, so while searching for Lucian she was also saving the other people.
Jasmine immediately headed for the 5th floor where Scarlett was currently present while trying to call Lucian, but he was not picking up.
Within seconds, Jasmine arrived on the 5th floor and in an instant she killed all the Xarus that were heading towards Scarlett, finally it was silent.
Scarlett who was killing one Xaru after another was surprised as all of them died all of a sudden but then she saw Jasmine walking towards her.
And the expression on her face was something she had never seen before even after working for her for so many years.
"..." Scarlett was instantly filled with guilt, even after searching all over the place she was not able to find even a trace of Lucian.
So there was a high chance that he was eaten by those creatures or dragged away, and thinking of this her heart shook making her loose all the strength in her legs.
" Where is Lucian? I had ordered you to stay close to him. "
Jasmine\'s voice sounded rather cold, her gaze putting an immense pressure over Scarlett making her feel as if a mountain was crashing down on her, and she found it impossible to bring out even a word out of her mouth.
*KRREEE*
Few of Xarus rushed towards them but in the next moment their bodies fell to the floor in pieces, Jasmine kept her gaze fixed on Scarlett.
After a few seconds, Scarlett mustered up all her courage and spoke:
" I- I don\'t know, I had gone on the terrace to look around but t- then his room suddenly exploded and he was nowhere to be found. "
Scarlett barely managed to finish her words, she wasn\'t even able to meet Jasmine\'s gaze.
" Wh- "
*BOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Just as Jasmine was about to speak something, the entire building shook as if it was about to break, this was not the work of the Xarus, and since no other Chasm had opened yet so it was definitely the work of a human.
After staring at Scarlett for a second, Jasmine decided to go down first but in the next moment an immense pressure enveloped the entire building.
This person didn\'t seem any less strong than Jasmine herself, if not stronger.
******
When Lucian had taken over all the screens in the country, Natasha was busy learning to cook new things for Lucian from the books.
So she didn\'t see anything but soon she too heard that loud explosion and then the weather turned strange.
Natasha walked out of the house and looked towards the surrounding, she had never seen anything like that, but soon something even more surprising happened as she sensed a lot of Fog of gathering and then forming several Chasms.
And not long after, she felt a 3rd Phase Chasm which was some distance away from her opening as a wave of creature ran out of it.
The first thought that came to her mind was that of Lucian\'s safely, she wasn\'t sure if a Chasm had appeared close to him or not, but for some reason Natasha was having this bad feeling in her mind.
" Luci... " Natasha mumbled and in the next moment she decided to go meet him, even if he is living with Jasmine but that doesn\'t mean he would be safe.
Though if he stays close to Natasha, she won\'t let anything happen to him, no matter what. The thought of Xerome didn\'t come to her mind for even an instant.
