"He's pretty late…"
A murmur came out of her mouth while Elizabeth's gaze looked around the vicinity. The once rising sun from the east now had reached its highest peak above her head. Though the canopy of the trees greatly reduced it's smoldering heat, the temperature still rises up nonetheless.
Fortunately, she was but a frail human in this case. For if not, she would probably have to traverse this forest by her own feet rather than using Edmurd's. Something that she couldn't imagine since the elves was more tenacious physically than what she had imagined them to be.
They have been at it for long hours, with the exception of the elderly, the sick, the children, and the pregnant woman. Those in the category before were mounted alongside Elizabeth, r

"How's it going?"Briefly glanced onto Aaron who was rushing on his side, Edmurd asked whilst it's nose twitched for an instant. A particular scent of a certain beast was caught by its nose, making it convinced that things should work out well if the being in its mind moved personally to eradicate the Sacred Heart."It was… surprising to say the least."But then, Aaron's tone which suggested there was something more in the previous situation had roused up Edmurd's interest. Now directly faced Aaron's gaze, Edmurd questioned, "What happened? Don't tell me that old coot was actually losing to some group of humans."Looking around and seeing the elves' eyes wandering around, Aaron gently shook his he

"Your blood… .You want to donate your blood as an exchange to get back to the other side?""Yep!" as if she just offered a genius idea, Elizabeth elaborated, "Look, all of you said that I'm a really rare existence right? There's a time when someone said my existence shouldn't be possible. If so, then doesn't that mean my blood would have a research worth to the Agency, right? It's the blood of someone who could attract the spirits after all."Listening to her, Edmurd's expression grew darker. Right after Elizabeth finished her speech, Edmurd chimed in, "Even then, they still won't come to get you. Though you might be rare, they are the type to have something that could be exchanged with monetary value. Research purposes give a little interest to them.""Ah, is that so

"Coming back… to that place?"Shudder crawled at her spine the second she thought back of the endless hallways. The exhaustion that followed right after vividly emerged in her mind. No matter what, Elizabeth swore to not come back to that kind of place. For it was no different than a death sentence to her."I also heard that you have a trouble staying in that mysterious gallery for a while."'It's not even in the level of 'trouble' anymore…'Within, Elizabeth rebuked what Aaron said while she revealed a bitter smile. For an instant, Elizabeth grew a little pissed off and wanted to end the conversation there. Still, she held on and continued to see why Aaron wanted her to do that.

"I have no excuse, sire."Despite the amount of ridicule from his surroundings because of the figure's kick, Andre bowed down his head and wiped off his blood from his mouth. "It is truly an unexpected situation. Nevertheless, I've failed my task to capture all of the elves. But If sire give me one more chance-"Before he could finish his sentence, an invisible person struck his guts and made him puked out all of the contents in his stomach. Chuckles and giggles resonated with the background, while some of the murmurs sounded like a thunderclap to him."What is he? An idiot?l"He just further embarrassed our organization.""He acts so high and m
Dark Eater Chapter 147 - Special
'How?'That was the very thing that came to Andre's mind when he saw the dagger protruding out of the nameless wizard's neck. He didn't feel any chant at all, so how could this murderer easily throw a dagger so precise and faster than the eye could see.'I felt like I've seen his face before, but I'm not sure.'As he takes a closer look at this murderer, Andre feels he had met the man at some point but he couldn't remember. Big chance that the murderer was just a random novice that pissed him off on the way and then he gave the guy a lesson, a total stranger.But now wasn't the time for him to muse over the identity of the murderer. Time was ticking and he bet his counterpart wasn't the type to be patien

"Just me?" picking up the message as if she was special, Elizabeth probed, "What do you mean? What's so special about me?"When Edmurd was about to reply, a yell echoed throughout the area. All of the elves who heard that display a smile or relieved expressions. It was something they wished to hear all this time."We will arrive at Earlham City soon! Take a temporary stop as our rangers would scout the place!"Shortly, everyone halted their movements and went down to the ground to rest their wearied legs. It was at this moment Elizabeth awed by the elves' constitutions for they've been traveling nonstop on top of the trees for a few hours. Something that was much harder than running on the ground in her opinion.

Unhurriedly walking within the wilderness was a man that seemed to be in his thirties. A monocle with silver wire was donned on his right eye. On his grip was a walking cane, with the tip of it in the shape of the head of a golden eagle.Five azure flames were flying around him and illuminated his path. Sometimes, the flames would flicker as they followed on both sides. He wore an uniform robe which was adjourned with platinum plating medals on his left chest. Behind him, two lines of wizards slowly accompanied him. Not too fast or too slow, and they would always be mindful to have eight meters distance with him.Meanwhile, many more wizards were teleporting amidst the Trees branches to chase their newest targets. A group of elves that appeared to be scouts. Since they appeared around this place, there must be other elves
Dark Eater Chapter 150 - Ridicule
The moment the bone spear had pierced its flesh, unbearable pain surged within and it felt an indescribable sense of heaviness, as if it had been thrown into a deep swamp, unable to move even for an inch.Trying to suppress the urge to growl in pain, Edmurd glared at the sudden appearance of a human in uniform. A single glance to his chest, the insignia of the Sacred Heart had told Edmurd where this human came from. However, it seems that the man predicted it's movement by targeting the weak elves' children.Not to mention, the girl who held it's oath was among these children, so there wouldn't be any second thoughts for it. Edmurd faced all of the attacks head on, but the last one was something that it didn't anticipate.Not all of the artifacts would have the a

'I can't get out of this barrier.'The second he realized this fact, a slight panic emerged within his mind. Yet, calm still reigned over his senses and as he watched the second most dangerous being he had ever crossed in his millions of reincarnations, Ludwig displayed a fearless smile."So you want to execute me right here right now?""You defiled the Sacred Pearl for your purpose, Author." Walking to the slowly dying Ludwig, Edmurd spoke, "I could care less of the countless conflicts and conspiracies you've caused in the human world to impede the progress of Sacred Heart or to nurture your little champion. But touching one of the origins of the world had crossed the line.""Trying to justify your action? Wh

"...The magic power…""This… !""How…"All of the wizards in the chamber let out panicked screams when they saw their magic dissipated into thin air. No matter how many times they chanted the runic languages, the talismans and artifacts didn't respond at all as if they had turned into ordinary items.'What's this flow…'Looking at how things had unfolded, Aaron widened his eyes as he noticed the flow in the air shifted into something he had never witnessed before. He who was the most sensitive in sensing the magic power of the wizards realized that their flow became chaotic all of sudden. To the point they even cast the mos

"Valkyrie…"Muttering that name, the image of a beautiful woman in armor flashed in her head as she compared the image to the creature before her. She couldn't see any semblance for the creature to possess such a title. But putting aside the weird naming style, she continued her words, "What do you want me? Am I in the headquarters of the Sacred Heart?""You catch on quickly," nodding his head, Valkyrie said, "for your first question, I want your blood and life. For the second question, yes, you are right in the middle of our headquarters."'Blood and life… a sacrifice?' widening her eyes, her attention shifted into the second answer while she glanced to half round shaped steel restraining her limbs. As her face became paler, Valkyrie clapped his bony han

"So, this time for you to be taken by them and brought to that thing has come…"The familiar voice fell on her ears as she looked around her. With nothing but white space stretched into the horizon, Elizabeth felt the sense of Deja Vu and clenched her fists. A strange, uncomfortable feeling spread all over her skin yet she couldn't quite describe it. Rather than itching, those feelings were as if something had struck her everywhere, leaving no spots unchecked, giving her a gross sensation that made her shudder."What are you doing to me!?" she shouted, half expecting the voice would give a proper explanation for she knew that she was back at that strange vision she had for quite a while. However, another part of her knew better that the voice wouldn't respond to her. That was how it always was and she didn't think this t
Chapter 197 - Infiltration
When the first touch of twilight appeared on the far horizon, at last, the convoy of Humvees stopped at the middle of the road which led to the mountain range outside of the city. Unlike when it was high noon where many types of tourists and students came to the mountains, there was almost no one around this road at this time. Only a few vehicles would be spotted on their way.One of the soldiers got out of the car and walked to the very front of the line. As he chanted, he raised the plate-like item with multiple magic circles engraved in it. Performing some hand signs, he finally placed the plate on the ground and still continued his chant. Before long, a bright blue light emerged from thin air and formed a large oval shaped gate, hovering right on top of the plate.Backing away, the soldier went back to his car and the

Outside of the military base.The once tranquil night descended upon the spacious field which was filled with littered corpses and blackened holes. The moon had already moved to the far horizon as some of the stars twinkled for the last time before they faded into the dark sky. Though flames flickered everywhere whilst groans of pain became the flowing hymn of the once bloodied fight, most of the casualties were inflicted to the mercenaries."...This is crazy."A mutter was uttered by a lone soldier while he stood amidst the battlefield. Some of his comrades were trying to detain the surviving enemies lying on the ground. His task was no different than them but for quite a while, he could only heaps of corpses rather than heavily injured combatants.

When the sharp steel brushed through his cheek, the scarlet sword on his hand struck right at the demon's neck, bringing forth superhuman force behind it and destroying half of its throat. Instead of showing any reactions, the demon pursued further with five metallic limbs sprouting from its back.Most of the strikes were parried by Aaron whilst he observed the movements of his foe. Despite both being in deadlock for a while, deep down, Aaron realized that in an endurance battle, even he would lose to this artificial demon.'But it won't take that long.'As his eyes glowed brighter than before, his pace doubled in the blink of an eye, to the point not even the demon could follow. Dozens of slashes and heavy blows were sent to its metallic body, causing it to open its m

Although the azure steel blade before him weighed almost five tons, Aaron still blocked it completely. A few moments later, his crystallized sword showed signs of cracks before he had tried to swat the azure blade away."Aaron…"Hearing she's called out to him had prompted him to turn his head and gazed upon her straightforward eyes. Before he could utter a reply, however, he felt a danger coming from his back and split his body into countless bats scattered around the place. Still, the blade managed to skewer three of the bats and flicked them to the ground.Appearing right beside Elizabeth, Aaron fixated his eyes onto the creature whilst he said in a grim voice, "You've become famous over the last few days in this world and weeks in another, dear friend.

"Are they going to be fine?"Walking beside Leonard and a girl that was as tall as her, with pigtails hairstyle, and white dress, Elizabeth asked with concern. Without turning her head, the girl who introduced herself as Violet back in the Esper's lounge, now smiling confidently and spoke,"It's true that things get a little out of hand. But considering his powerful captain is, he probably took out their leader in no time and then targeted the rest of the terrorists next."Hearing Violet uttered with such confidence, Elizabeth shifted her head forward and tried to dismiss her worry. She had seen how Kevin fared before she had time to evacuate since things became dicey. Although he couldn't deal with the wizard in a short time, he almost had the wizard if not for the do
