Hearing no reply from him other than low grunts, she crouched and grabbed his arm to pull him up.
Damien tried to shrug her off, but Nathasia seemed too adamant to let go of him and somehow made him stand up on his feet with efforts from his side as well.
"Cough..cough…" Damien coughed out some blood, to which Nathasia could only tighten her fists, knowing that she can't stop him from doing whatever he came to do here, no matter how injured he was.
She could see in his frigid eyes that he wouldn't rest until he saw the person named Merlin dead.
She could understand him, considering how badly she wanted Bella dead, only to find out that she had already died when Damien brought down the place she was kept in.
After standing up, Damien shrugged her hand off and gave her a strange look, to which Nathasia had no idea why he was looking at her like that, and lowered her head, wondering if she did something wrong.
"Well done," Damien said in an impassive tone as he turned around and limped forward.
Nathasia's eyes brightened up as she raised her head and looked at his back, wondering if she heard him right.
She felt a sense of disbelief hearing him compliment her, but at the same time, she felt very happy, knowing that he finally acknowledged her efforts and did not see her as completely useless.
But seeing him already walking towards the large door ahead, Nathasia took in a deep breath as she quickly picked up her pistol lying on the ground and followed him.
Damien knew that Deathclaw was the only Ascended one in this mansion since otherwise, he would have got attacked by other Ascenders by now.
However, just as he reached the door, he looked at Nathasia and asked, "Tell me how many are inside."
Nathasia nodded and placed her hand on the door as she closed her eyes, "I think there are six people. Three of them are sitting on the bed while three of them seem to be standing close to the door."
"Good. Kill the ones who are standing through the door," Damien firmly said.
"Kill? I...okay…" Nathasia's hand began to tremble again even though she had just killed some guards before.
She still had difficulty coming to terms with the fact that she had already killed people, which was something unimaginable to her before.
As she raised her shaky hand with the gun towards the door, Damien frowned, seeing that she was still out of it.
He gripped her hand, which was holding the gun, and said in a stone-cold voice, "If you think killing people is bad, then it means you do not care about getting justice for your parents at all. Or have you forgotten what you told me when you wanted to come with me?"
Nathasia's lips quivered as she thought back to the memory of when her parents were shot dead before she could realize it.
And the inexpressive face of Bella, who acted as if she had just killed two ants which infuriated Nathasia even more.
Her hand suddenly stopped shaking as the grip over her gun became firm. Damien narrowed his eyes as he removed his hand from hers and waited for her to make her shots.
Nathasia placed one of her hands on the door while with the other, she placed the muzzle of the gun on the door as if she was planning to shoot the three standing inside from the outside.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!*
"Ugh!"
"Aaaah!!"
As if she was possessed, Nathasia fired three quick shots in succession as the sounds of screams and grunts sounded from inside.
Damien snorted as he heard three bodies falling to the ground and kicked the door open as Nathasia already unlocked it for him.
*Bang!*
*Cling!*
A man in his thirties with a small mustache fired a quick shot at Damien, who swiftly deflected it with his sword as he already expected Merlin to fire that shot at him.
*PEW!*
"Aargh!"
"Merlin!!"
"Father!"
But before Merlin could fire at him again, Damien fired his silenced gun at Merlin's hand, making the gun fall out of his hand.
And at the same time, his wife, who seemed to be of Merin's age, and his son, who looked to be seventeen, rushed towards Merlin in worry.
Seeing the family of three scared out of their wits, Nathasia wondered what this Merlin person did to Damien for him to come all this way to kill him.
Damien derisively smiled as he sat down on one of the chairs near the bed and said, "Merlin, Merlin...to think that you have been hiding with your precious family in this big mansion in the middle of nowhere, tsk, tsk...you should have done better."
Merlin shrugged off from his wife's hold as he somehow got off the bed and kneeled on the floor with a pale expression, "Damien...please...you can kill me for what I did however you want. B-But, please spare my family...they had no part in this, I promise!"
"No, Merlin!"
"Father, please don't!"
Damien's expression got dark hearing the shouts of the woman and kid, "Shutup! Nathasia, next time they make a peep, shoot them in the stomach and let them bleed to death."
Nathasia felt pity seeing the wife and son but still raised her gun and warned with her eyes to keep their mouths shut.
She hoped that what Damien said was just a threat to induce fear in everyone, including Merlin, and not something he really meant because otherwise, she had no idea if she would be able to even shoot at these two.
Killing the guards was one thing but killing innocent people was not her thing at all.
Merlin's eyes widened as he quickly turned his head around and shouted frantically, "Shut up, you idiots! Linda, fucking control yourself."
Linda sobbed as she tried to take in short breaths while covering her mouth and hugging her son, hoping that their worst fears won't come true.
As he turned around to look at Damien again, Merlin felt chills all over his body upon feeling Damien's frigid eyes looking down upon him.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Hearing no reply from him other than low grunts, she crouched and grabbed his arm to pull him up.
