“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.
“Fuh!” Shadow pushed her hoodie to the back, revealing her face. Her cheeks were covered with sweat and flushed.“Are you okay there, daughter?” Ibrahim in his beast form kneeled in front of her.“Hot, niece?” Ali fanned her face with his hands.“Water, water, water.” Nathan rummaged through a cold bottle inside his spatial pocket.Juviana supplied a never-ending cold breath around them to make sure Shadow’s body temperature didn’t rise.Miley was literally panicking silently and placed a shelter-like boulder around them to cover her from the sun's heat from stroking their heads.“I am okay, guys.” Shadow tried to slow them down. “This robe is temperature regulation. I am not hot.”“Your face is flushed, daughter.”“Your sweat, niece…”“Master… thirsty…”“Shadow, you look lethargic dear.”“Not well rested.”All of them spoke simultaneously, refusing to let her downplay the pain she experienced.Tuk!Julian fell into despair. ‘What… what… what…’His eyes shifted among them with a disb
“What is the purpose of this artifact, Shadow?” Ibrahim was quite skeptical of anything created by Shadow.Hell, he was suspicious of every move she made. He knew it was wrong for him to think that way, especially, since Shadow was his beloved daughter. However, it was the very reason that he was suspicious of Shadow. Because she was his daughter.“What is served for?” Ibrahim had to repeat the question because Shadow was seen smiling underneath the mask. It firmed his suspicions. This artifact had a terrible curse or something. “No, it’s not a terrible curse or equivalent to it.” Shadow snorted. “What do you think I am?”“Shadow.”“Master.”“My beloved niece.”“My daughter.”Juviana, Nathan, Ali, and Ibrahim spoke at once in that order.Miley also looked at Shadow with a scared complexion. Lord Holiness Shadow. Despite a covered face, the mystery that she showed to them was enough to judge her.Miley felt strong charisma from this lady every so often. However, she had never felt s
“What is wrong with you?” Juviana was shocked.Nathan reflexively pushed Juviana away and took a few steps backward. “Nathan?” She called, quite worried.Nathan’s face suddenly became pale. His body was tensed and his lips turned white,“Nath–” She shut up when she realized one thing.Not only Nathan acted weirdly, but Ibrahim and Ali also acted similarly. Their eyes shook crazily even though Ibrahim was expressionless and Ali tried to smile.Crush!Shadow proceeded to crush the ring’s box.Psssh~The smell of blood spilled to the ground. The crushed stone on the floor liquidized. The stone became blood.Shadow unsheathed her dagger and proceeded to cut her wrist.Drip. Drip. Drip.The poisonous purple fell on the ground, mixed with the blood on the ground.“Urp!” Nathan and Ibrahim nearly vomited.“Ehem, ehem.” Ali coughed a few times.“When Julian modified the ring and changed the stone, the purpose of the ring changed. However, the purpose was still nearly the same as the previous
A few days ago at the hunting ground.“Tell me. Where is she?”“I can’t say anything even if you push me like this, Crown Prince Malikul.” Dhia sighed.“My fiancee, your daddy, and my uncle went missing.”“I am aware of that.”“The state is managed by the queens and the prime ministers.”“Again, I am all aware, Your Majesty.”“So, Princess Dhia… where is your little sister right now?”Dhia, who was riding the horse, pulled up the rein, making the horse halt. Due to the Underworld’s influence, they shifted to horses. The people brought by Shadow were so cute yet bothered when they met the massive lions around them. Their bodies visibly loosened when they met the horses, regardless of their size. Stallion and mare were nothing to them. Therefore, they went out of their way just to forge a relationship that they’d never thought of forging. The horse community got the deal just like that with a condition that their horses or equivalent to it must be treated with respect.And they did.
