Nathan and Ibrahim along with two birds, two bees went to the assigned place where they could create another chaos for diversion. Leaving Shadow Ali, Juviana and Miley.She had two destroyers and a lookout. Amongst all, Ali had the utmost important job. His single reaction could change the entire game at once. A lookout seemed trivial, many overlooked their merit. Shadow called that post as Hawk to emphasize the importance of the task.“I trust you.” Shadow cracked her neck.Ali pointed at the rest of the bees that he had. Shadow glanced at them. “One for me?”“Sure.” Ali gestured the chosen bee to Shadow and the rest of them to two elves. “Any communication can be through my babies.”“So practical.” Shadow snickered. She tapped her shoulder at the bee. “Hope you stick next to me always.”The bee obediently landed on her shoulder.The other bees proceeded to hide around Juviana and Miley. After every bee had settled comfortably, the elves glimpsed at Shadow.“You may go. Remember.
Juviana and Miley stood in front of the gate while camouflaging. Their natural power made it possible for them to be one with nature. It was the specialty of the elves. The only difference was the level of their power. Juviana was in her eighth circle while Miley was in her seventh circle. Their affinity with nature was exceedingly high. Therefore, it shouldn’t be a problem to camouflage their bodies with nature. The two of them stood in front of the main gate of the Abandoned Estate, watching the mansion blankly. Miley was the one who broke the silence. “Truce.” “... truce.” Juviana had to agree. The job was more important than their fiasco. The job was directly ordered by Shadow, and she didn’t want to disappoint her benefactor. So, she must do anything to make sure that Shadow’s plan moves smoothly. Clap! “Let’s get started.” Miley clapped her hands and cracked her neck a few times. Juviana extended both of her hands to the front while Miley created a massive axe. The str
“... Let's see how strong you are.”Ibrahim said nothing. He gawked at the bear, silently judging the bear under his hoodie.The bear’s anger rose simultaneously when the mysterious man in front of him said nothing. “Enough talking. Come at me!”Although he said that, the bear started to charge forward instead of waiting. With the spear that he took from somewhere else, he was aiming directly for Ibrahim. With an obscure smile, Ibrahim waited for the spear to come at him.As soon as the edge of the spear was within his perimeter, he easily shook it off by redirecting the tip of the spear to the other side.As the bear tilted to his side, Ibrahim went forward in one strike before he was in front of the bear in only a millisecond.Whoosh!He swung his dagger at the bear’s spear, slamming it down, and used his free fist to knock his jaw.Zzup! Tap!The bear was already dodging the fist and ran to the other side. His face was colored with shock.‘This mysterious man is strong. If I don’t
Ali chewed his chewing gum silently. He had blocked the entire estate with the invisible barrier. Hence, the noise inside the mansion wouldn’t be heard by anyone outside the estate.Nonetheless, it took a toll on him to maintain such a high level of magic. His mana wasn’t as limited as a normal person but it was still hard for him to retain it for a long time while dismantling all the magic devices outside the wall.At the same time, he was eyeing the soldiers and knights that were still trying to extinguish the fire created by Nathan.“Juvi and Miley. Both of them are strong. If I have to judge their strength side by side, Juvi looks stronger… but who am I to judge, yeah?” He dangled his leg in the air, humming low.Bzzt!But suddenly, he felt the chill.He rose and looked at the mansion where Ibrahim was, narrowing his eyes, stupidly he tried to see what was inside.After realizing that he looked stupid for doing so, he summoned another bee and swung his finger at Ibrahim’s window.
“Should I buy this for my wife?”“Why not?”“I should?”“Yes, you should– who’s that?”Tap, tap, tap.The fierce eyes opened themselves when he heard the halted conversation and deliberate steps which echoed through the dim passage. The two guards obviously encountered the anonymous visitor. They were speaking in a high voice.“Who are you? Why are you here?”“That height. Rat?”“Rat? What rat is doing here?”“Hahaha. Today is your unlucky day.”The man in the cell collected all the information silently, waiting. His heart was pounding hard. ‘Rat?’He became even more restless. Not many knew the real traits of rats, apparently.The steps were appearing out of nowhere and disappeared in the same manner. It piqued his curiosity.‘Who? Who? Who is it?’The aura was thoroughly concealed, however, the man was still betting on that person. If they weren’t strong, this place wouldn’t be discovered easily by them.A few commotions occurred afterward. Sadly, the man couldn’t witness it, so h
“Understood.”No questions asked. No more further inquiries. If he wanted to preserve his sanity, that’s it.The Hamster clan was famous for their vicious view of the world. They used to be oppressed by everyone including the rat tribe even though they were from the same species. Later, they learned to retaliate, giving birth to the current assassin skill.Some of the powerful species were quite afraid of them for their boldness. Therefore, once again, he emphasized that he wouldn’t fuck with a hamster. The teeth were so sharp, the cuteness was so deadly.Julian truthfully kneeled in front of Shadow and swore. “I am, Count Julian The Greatest will work with you, oh the lord–”Shadow hastily raised her hand. “Wait.”“Yes?”“I wish you to keep the oath before you escape this place.”“Yes? What if I lie–” Julian heard the amused snort and shut his mouth.Shadow rummaged inside her spatial pocket and pulled out the contract. “You can sign this contract.”Julian was speechless. The man in
This stone would endanger Nathan.That was why Ibrahim was anxious. Nathan touched his shoulder, concern was all over his face.“What is it?” Nathan asked.“Do you know the nature of this cursed stone?” Nathan tilted his head. “I am not so familiar with it. I do know one thing, though. The curse stone is similar to corrupt mana stone, only it is much more powerful.”Ibrahim nodded his head silently and resumed his steps. Nathan followed dangerously closer than usual. His eyes were weirdly glued to the box in Ibrahim’s hand.“Hey, can I touch this box?”“No!” Ibrahim answered quickly.“Why?” He persistently wanted to be closer to the box.‘I can smell Shadow. I want to sniff it.’Ibrahim pushed Nathan’s face much taller than him with his elbow, who was already in close contact with the box before putting it in his spatial pocket. He didn’t even want to touch the ring, let alone let Nathan’s curiosity get the better of him. ‘What the hell is she thinking?’Even though she was his daug
Shadow did the breathing technique to curb her madness at bay. Eagle was the personality that loved blood too much befitting the color of the eyes: red. However, Eagle and Falcon disappeared after she reconciled with her own self. After she embraced her own shortcoming. Although, they didn’t disappear forever. Their existence solely depended on Black Shadow. Black Shadow would take charge if she couldn’t handle the pain, as usual. On that account, she must challenge herself to be better and to train harder so that Black Shadow wouldn’t appear and take over the situation as usual.She must show Black Shadow that a smell of blood wouldn’t coward her down. She was not a coward. She could handle as much.She controlled her breath, she controlled her thoughts and she persistently fought for her instinct. It was hard to curb her thirst but it would be so worth it if she succeeded. The vein popped out and bulged bigger and bigger. Her irises changed darker.‘You can do it. You can do it.
