140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvlU37GNhz

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PV2R8Nn9u

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3S0QcQgXQ

The air froze for a moment.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7t2XqLaFso

Even Khaled felt that her name alone carried something unnatural.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDoX8xYG5N

Rose slowly stepped down from the ice-

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgl9umJd1cG

covered rocks.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOaFA4flhH

Her footsteps made no sound.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo1MDM8Cwh

As if the cold itself was carrying her.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOJYfl4Wdm

She stopped directly in front of them.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovTdCOrQHG

Her icy blue eyes shifted toward Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXdA2eBm0a

Then a faint smile appeared on her face.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvtZsS7nQx

“You look a lot like them…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1JiqqsKy4

Khaled narrowed his eyes.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp3vMKU0hk

“Like who?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUmeZBjPW1

But Saif answered instead, his voice filled with anger:

“Do not speak their names.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY20sh507e

Rose looked at him calmly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8meTEN7Nhm

“Luna… and Kiz.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ8yikmi20

In the next moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHurKzyIwZd

Khaled’s expression completely changed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wOxV0buc0

The air around him grew heavier.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJX53Eec8P

“You knew my parents?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHimQdcCOS8

Rose laughed softly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXODuPFoWBk

“We knew each other very well.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6LlMgzmmF

The freezing wind slowly moved around her.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiWo0pHlvc

“We were all students of Master Saif.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhJXAymEzH

Then she looked directly at the old man.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN2VDuP5SS

“But it seems… I was the weakest among them.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUDQC1DNl2

Saif’s expression hardened.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgUrOrdavY

“You were never weak.”

“You were simply greedy.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL396DsJhu9

The smile on Rose’s face slowly faded.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3HLgDXd1y

Then she spoke in a calm voice:

“Greedy?”

“No…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡns6W1hsMZt

She slowly raised her hand.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCGn6oVXXc

Crystals of ice began forming around her fingers.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MSBxquZRg

“I simply refused to remain weak.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkewDqvgQg9

In a single moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIND9MXS50

Ice exploded around her.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvexo6SCvBB

The sound of freezing echoed throughout the forest.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOru8r6TWx

Even the ground beneath them rapidly turned white with frost.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlh3Af414K

“Luna and Kiz died because they were weak.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwMoZHTOSX

She said it while staring directly at Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEVwMZdjDB

“As for me…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBb0kWbW6P

A cold smile appeared on her face.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRAr5yTINz

“The Ice King granted me power.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEsCBLqB4L

Khaled tightened his grip on his sword.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pShdIsPuC

A weak shadow aura slowly moved beneath his feet.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1D2KRJqdA

But it was unstable.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq5tydqRkG

Ever since the last battle, most of his shadow energy had been exhausted.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9S1QFk7ZNE

He could barely use the aura now…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEGKOshxWc

And was relying mostly on swordsmanship alone.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVptSGEMm2

“Do not mention them again.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWKhRSI7gg

Rose’s smile widened slightly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j7UMI0Pbm

“And what will you do?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnwfsjW1LT

In the next moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU6OJKu9XI

Khaled rushed forward instantly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLSqjLCKre

His movement was fast, but far less overwhelming than before.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT4zYegdx3

The black sword cut through the cold air toward her neck—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchpguqI7sv

But suddenly—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesBcYTpkCB

Another blade blocked his strike.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b00hVezmt

Fiery sparks exploded into the air.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlYzILO4j9

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqNnei4Ajf

“…Abdulrahman?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYdpMQDxS4

Abdulrahman stood directly in front of Rose.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nhZiq8mi9

His eyes were empty.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VAYrLuLnr

Without emotion.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3c66lq5jZ

Even the flames surrounding him moved unnaturally… as if they had lost their soul.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy2Uy3imEX

“Move out of the way!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zCaUd4HFv

Khaled shouted angrily.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM2DcBOnGz

But Abdulrahman immediately attacked him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q76vnqt5m

A fast strike forced Khaled backward.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlT4g1Qnwe

The two swords collided violently.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQnxRQ2vat

Fire and shadow exploded between them in bursts of orange and dark violet light.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVwTuaVUw0

But Khaled was not fighting seriously.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TG01l5FD4

He kept retreating.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWN06h3tGQd

Trying to understand what was happening.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqgOdXeteD

“He’s under her control!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDgYoFg5qJ

Saif shouted.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpdVtNnWbi

Then he quickly raised his staff.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO34RslxW6J

Glowing blue symbols appeared around Abdulrahman.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIGB88Ql1q

But Rose smiled calmly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsOB71aJFm

“That won’t work.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljvDwQnhc3

She slowly lifted one finger.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGStWV1oYeX

Suddenly—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrSctGifWt

Abdulrahman’s eyes changed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlFprCdVjQ

An icy blue glow flashed inside them for a brief moment.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YDGlfISrN

Then the flames around his body erupted even more violently.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFulSJSmWpD

“This is the second level of the Ice Seal.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopR5k2W3ZL

Rose said proudly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv7JE6YtcW

“Complete control over the mind.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TARZd0bJ6

Abdulrahman suddenly disappeared from sight.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOQqxVUrOS

In the next instant—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUxfaTyo9Z

He appeared directly behind Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87xp8eJO5N

A massive wave of fire exploded toward him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxBUwW9TA1

Khaled barely turned in time to block it with his sword.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01m3iYNSmm

The impact violently pushed him across the ground.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrorRx1Au4M

The earth cracked beneath his feet.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuYazxbKq0

“Khaled!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4MenXZzj0

he shouted desperately.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AntgtLKSQ

“Wake up!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsEG40hMAj

But nothing changed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUBz5PlglU

Abdulrahman stood silently.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHXFbG00Aw

Then slowly raised his sword again.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyUpuxqkQe

At that moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUI7CCCE6V

Saif finally intervened.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9N3nWs0Yjx

A powerful strike from his staff stopped Abdulrahman briefly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nJHpbmsze

Glowing spells surrounded his body.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVi0NaBcK5

“Wake up, boy!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuB8IJTIQo

the old master shouted.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpbFriQcRs

Abdulrahman’s body trembled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIlBzf6prg

The flames around him became unstable.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDFeuFKJDK

And for one brief moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47kxvfnmld

His eyes returned to normal.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP4A1yjo7U

“K… Khaled…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDSmBdHmrG

But before he could continue—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSZ8HFbL7x

Rose smiled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeJrfsjIEF

This time, her smile felt terrifying.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnctSuRA0u0

Then she slowly closed her hand.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFvuLUXTQJ

Suddenly—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBkSdIJrVC

Abdulrahman froze.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpMiLAS2kd

Then raised his head once more.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSYwzO52Rc

And the terrifying emptiness returned to his eyes.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IGcfJr1Nr

Rose let out a quiet sigh.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRPtCfPBmT

“I entered his mind myself.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuhrcV9uDz

Then she looked at Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cs4mQW6aL

“And there…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm7KPbWsFM

Her smile widened.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdckoaspm6N

“I found a chained monster named Zero.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPmw1gz8k9

Khaled’s expression instantly changed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAIaBSw2Kj

“What?”

“We made a deal.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq0mbiTihz

She said it as if it were nothing.

“He allows me to control Abdulrahman…”

“And in return…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPjk9639yC

Her smile briefly froze.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXH5xWV3zz

“I free him.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5x8lmgTCCO

The flames around Abdulrahman suddenly exploded.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTkyfXk1rV

But this time—

They were unstable.

Chaotic.

Violent.

Terrifying.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIfmg900YQ

Even Saif felt the danger.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2AlxNrFDN

“Rose…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpXLekVd2x

His voice became heavier.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU3jz2MgY0

“You do not understand what you are interfering with.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWl8Ps3sIgl

But she laughed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo0QBTV8xQ

“No…”

“I understand perfectly.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfbH4hstiV

Then she slowly raised her hand toward Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgO4qshopA

“After I control all of you…”

“I’ll make you destroy this village with your own hands.”

“And then…”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgbrtYAFNE

She closed her eyes with a cold smile.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkozDr61Np

“The king will be very pleased.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHlvJuzhef

Khaled rushed forward again.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73WYiMcFLW

But Abdulrahman instantly blocked his path.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRFvoWwU6z

Fast strikes.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ838rvfpusV

Fire and shadow clashing repeatedly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPN0UotkQH

Explosions echoed through the forest.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wV1kGRJAM

The trees around them began burning and freezing at the same time.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y3c60STxO

But the real problem…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTSSr9zWzz

Was that Khaled did not want to hurt his friend.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKewoh68HtK

And it showed clearly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX2BgCZBNN

Every strike from him carried hesitation.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTpJRmIT2m

Restraint.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHJOZMhIwm

Which slowly allowed Abdulrahman to overpower him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQxvLC2v3g

“Master!”

Khaled shouted.

“Help me!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0G09ZrcwCv

But…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5mzPh4Tug

No response came.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXyUGh0nqD

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz4n218DM4

He quickly turned—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8sCtVqU3o

Only to find Saif standing motionless.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTJzvbq1Sv

His eyes…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2f6Yl8ObhA

Completely empty.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOiJxkU6KB

Rose smiled calmly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5XQDgdGQ1

“Did you really think I would leave him out of the game?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4yU4nKzGF

In the next moment—

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIG6CBr3hLd

Saif began walking toward Khaled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsGSGB66LV

Slowly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIa6zEI2GQ

But with a terrifying aura that made Khaled freeze for a moment.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAC2dtBrVm

And now…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHxe3rHDJn

He stood facing his master… and his closest friend…

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopK6BhXYrv

Both trying to kill him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROZc9rvacB

Khaled slowly took a step back.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0o50UDzNa

His breath grew heavy.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiy4zD7mTn

Not from fear…

But from pressure.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsDboRVf6j

The pressure of battle.

And the exhaustion that had gnawed at his body since facing Newell.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pg5z9k90T

He gripped his sword even tighter.

The shadow around his feet shifted weakly, as if trying to respond to him… then vanished again.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76Clcl0aFL

At the opposite end—Abdulrahman and Saif stood before him in silence.

Empty eyes.

Without a hint of hesitation.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOxlD2LQF4

And between them…

Rose watched the scene with a cold smile.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Kv4TZYe0T

“What’s wrong, Khaled?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7CVYIrkxO

She said quietly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifcuyNflfr

“Aren’t you going to fight?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0CkGjfJoR

The first strike came.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIrzgurR9I

Saif appeared before him faster than he had anticipated.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3QkCCqogz

The staff strike slammed into Khaled’s sword with a violent crash.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWcwbYUWKC

A loud crash echoed through the forest.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTafLf4Hal

Khaled felt his arm shake from the impact.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLBGkIQEJN

But before he could regain his balance—fire appeared beside him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lvfpkOT58

Abdulrahman.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfWkwJuviz

A swift horizontal strike forced him to duck instantly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB10y3TvyV

The fire passed directly over his head.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIC3CkkbpG5

Its heat was enough to scorch some of his hair.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF4HTgYXFT

Khaled jumped back quickly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GK6qgtWu5

Then he looked at them in shock.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nhWnygbeA

“They just won’t stop…” Rose smiled.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtxYYTQDw4

“Because I’ve taken away their hesitation.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbzcFLzMdY

Then she slowly raised a finger.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewvSpMSxTx

“But you…” Her smile widened slightly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaAHT2XLNt

“You’re still too faint-hearted.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnAGe16yLY

The next moment—

They attacked him together.

Saif from the front.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd3iN0KUAH

And Abdul Rahman from the side.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4xpNJsXUx

The staff and the fiery sword struck Khaled almost simultaneously.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwPOhTRnyb

He tried to block both blows—

but he failed.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBG9smx9An

Saif’s strike propelled him forward.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADUOHYAmIk

The next moment, fire erupted on his shoulder.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPuMCSTgdB

He stumbled backward violently, crashing into a tree trunk.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhICbHwJwhr

The tree behind him cracked from the force of the impact.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfazt9mtp8X

Khaled groaned with difficulty.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy0VAyCfgl

Then he slowly raised his head.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ckgJaTj8G

Rose was approaching.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4POWxDS2Sj

Calm.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMYzlR7SaF

Confident.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuxVaLAjsW

“See?”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNKZRoPsCH

The icy aura around her intensified.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPjMb26sAi

“You’re not like your parents.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0Rf1NSxz3

“They were ready to sacrifice everything.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHXyYWRXAw

Then she looked at Abdul Rahman.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEagv8fHZLF

“But you…”

She pointed at Khalid.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZUYW9cOE5

“You can’t even hit your own friend.”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaHoWfdW88

Khalid clenched his fist tightly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbA8OWJfdR

Her words struck him.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6ZEHiWCi1

And that was exactly what she wanted.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SWGXlXuC0

Suddenly—

Abdul Rahman reappeared.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ePZYMkvh6

A bullet shot straight to his face.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4U3TAK3dm

But Khalid barely managed to grasp his sword and deflect it.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tZQANFGbV

Fire erupted around them.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9rXatBSCx

Orange sparks mingled with the faint traces of darkness emanating from Khalid’s sword.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1n5kbZ2h9

Abdul Rahman moved closer.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQDeHQHgMG

Then he whispered, his voice faint and broken:

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m25RkBCZL

“…Run…”

Khalid’s eyes widened.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1sUAZwn7U

“Abdul Rahman?!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxXdoWLDTC

But his eyes immediately went blank again.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JYk1URVXk

Then he shoved Khalid violently.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjLzN62FTG

Khalid flew several meters above the ground before tumbling heavily.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKxXS4h2hX

He coughed with difficulty. Blood began to trickle from his mouth.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6LTVjgiWk

He stood up slowly… but he could barely hold his sword now.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEF2xUfOvM

“Damn it…” He looked toward the pendant.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuodd0nDwv

Then he closed his hand over it.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79Hlb8K9QO

“Shadow…”

No response.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTgA322DT3

“You bastard, help me!”

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL9IyrKraZ

The darkness inside the pendant remained silent.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPdJ2KuKE4

Rose approached slowly.

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB38d3Pem58

Prepare for destruction...

140Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE88iKEQa2g
