HideousGrain
I knew it she was gonna have someone come to her rescue. Like when has a MC ever got to kill and toture his/her enemies in peace without getting interrupted. The author probably plans on milking this twist for almost 700 chapters.
I know it's probably not gonna go the way I want it to but I hope that if bella survives atleast her innate ability or whatever that saintes came from was destroyed or at least damagend when nial choked her with kaeldur that should be possible since kaeldurs klaw was even able to crush the fragment of Silvians Soul in his incarnation
