Chapter 229: _Dark Magic Corruption "H–How’s that possible?" Odessa asked with a trembling voice, staring at the screen with shock. "Is it live footage? Why... Why does it feel like she’s staring directly at us?" I furrowed my eyebrows, glaring at the screen. The cloaked figure tilted her head, a sly smirk curling up her lips before the footage flickered once again. " I-I don’t understand what’s happening..." Leticia stammered, her fingers moving rapidly on the screen, trying to get it to play other footage. "The entire system is corrupted. We—" "What sort of flimsy excuse is that?" I snapped at her, my voice low as I stepped forward. "It’s clear this has gone beyond your power. Call in the city leaders to see this." Leticia glanced back at me, hesitation present in her eyes. My brows twitched with frustration, but before I could lash out, Odessa stepped forward as well, grabbing my wrist. "Please, call them in now. I don’t understand what’s happening but something tells me your city has a mole. A spy who’s already corrupting things from the inside." Odessa muttered. Her voice was soft and pleading, but there was still that flicker of hesitation in the witch scribe’s eyes. ’This whole thing screams trouble.’ I spoke to Odessa through the mind link. ’They’re transporting wolves, including children and that raven witch using lawless magic is leading the operation. Right under their noses.’ At that same moment, the entire screen glitched before flickering out of existence, leaving the wall on which it was projected empty. The magic orb, which powered its projecting, stopped glowing with its usual white light as well, forcing the three of us to swerve our heads toward it. "What the heck is happening now?" I asked physically this time. Suddenly, a black fog began spreading within the orb like spilt ink, corrupting it from the inside out before it enveloped it in complete pitch black. Things didn’t end there as a pulse of darkness spread all around the room, from the walls to the floor and even the ceiling, causing the computers and the light bulbs to flicker. "Dark magic..." Leticia mumbled solemnly, shaking her head with disbelief. "Someone is hijacking control of the military archive systems by corrupting them with dark magic. Which means—" "This is a cyber attack, but at an arcane level." Odessa chimed, tightening her grip on my hand and glancing at me with fear in her eyes. "This witch, whoever she is, she’s the real deal." Suddenly, the sound of metallic squeaking, like gears spinning to work, echoed all around the large room. I scanned my gaze around, my instincts screaming danger in that moment. "Now would be a good time to call your leaders!" I snarled at Leticia, causing her to jolt at first before she nodded and brought out her phone. After a few seconds, she dialled a number, at the same moment that the lights in the room blinked repeatedly. "We’re under attack by an outside dark magic influence. It’s overriding the systems and—" Leticia paused, her eyebrows furrowing. "We were only reviewing footage, ma’am. From soldier body cams and surveillance drones. Then we saw proof that some of our soldiers are indeed transporting wolves with the help of a—" This time, what interrupted Leticia was the entire room suddenly shaking as if an earthquake had hit. All heads turned to a corner of the room where the source of the tremor was coming from. "T–The golems," Odessa muttered with dread. The golem knights, all six in number and each standing at ten feet tall, slowly stepped away from the walls, turning their heads to us. Their metallic joints groaned like ancient hinges, each step shaking the marble floor beneath us. Dust fell from the ceiling beams with every grinding motion, like the room itself was holding its breath. "I thought you said those things could only be awakened by the magic of a witch within the security team?" I barked at the witch scribe, but my voice was colder than aggressive. Leticia didn’t answer me, too focused on the call she was having with the city’s leaders. I groaned with frustration as Odessa and I turned around to face the golems fully. "They aren’t sentient. They operate by following commands laid in their systems through runes cast by the witch who made them." Odessa explained to me in a whisper. I tilted my head slightly, glancing at her. "So, like robots, except these things run on magic and not technology," I remarked. ’We would be bigger than them if you let me out.’ Damon suggested in my mind just then. ’I could take them out in ten seconds tops.’ Suddenly, Odessa relayed a message to mentally. ’I can’t fight. The elders clearly stated I shouldn’t use my powers in public and I nearly overstepped that rule when I used my magic to fight off the corruption in that footage earlier.’ Fuck... I clenched my fists, readying myself for a fight with the golems. They began marching forward, unsheathing the huge swords they once held like statues. ’Look, Kaelos.’ Odessa raised her right hand, showing me the bracelet on her wrist which glowed faintly. ’Anytime magic surges in me, it sends a signal to the Elders. For now, I’m a—’ "You better not say anything about being a burden," I growled, placing my right hand in front of her and forcing her to step back. "Stand back. I’ll handle this if they attack." I saw the smile on her face before I turned my head back to the incoming golems. The worst part of this whole thing was that I was also supposed to hold back my powers. The magic sigil placed on my arm at the city gates pulsed, as if to remind me that I couldn’t shift or use any of my devastating Alpha King powers. I was cornered and almost powerless... But I had my fists and claws if push came to shove. "Coven head Luzia is on her way!" Leticia suddenly announced behind me, stepping forward and dropping her phone in her pocket. "The witch behind this has successfully corrupted the security system but once she arrives she—" Before she could finish, the large doors leading into the military archives room burst open, causing all eyes to turn in that direction. Luzia. Talk about perfect timing. "Whoever you are, I will not let your corruption fester!" She declared with a voice that boomed with magic, sending a gust of wind around the room as her hair flung into the air.
