After a while, the sight of the elves and the wizards was covered by the endless rows of trees. They already crossed done distance from the battlefield, considering how Edmurd and Aaron jogged amidst the wilderness. With the multiple chirps of the birds and bugs around them, Elizabeth sighed softly. Before she knew it, she felt her arms and shoulders become heavier while her head was aching slightly. 

"It wasn't your fault." 

Suddenly, Aaron commented as he gazed at her. Directly meeting his eyes, Elizabeth smiled wryly as the shriek of the young girl and boy resounded at the tip of her ears. The vivid scene of the middle aged man's composed expression along with the angered faces of the rangers that surged back into her mind. Her heart throbbed and left her breathless for a second.

    As she displayed a strange face and didn't know what to say, Aaron himself was staring directly at her with a serious expression, not even batting an eyelid. Confronted with how calm her counterpart was, Elizabeth felt that it might have been a misunderstanding on her part. Not wishing to continue feeling this awkwardness, Elizabeth decided to ask bluntly."What's the meaning of this?"Blinking his eyes innocently, Aaron once again, starched out his hands further for her to take and said, "It's like what it seems. It's a magic item."Her heart skipped a beat before she listened to his last words. Seeing that it wasn't like what she had assumed, Elizabeth probed, "A magic item?""That's right."&n

    Unbelievable.That was the only word that could describe what Andre felt within the past days. When his future was bleak and his life was basically over, a thin straw of hope was stretched out for him. This kind of slim chance, although he would never try to go along with such a low chance, with nothing to lose, he took it.Who would ever thought, that thin straw was as tough as steel wire. Pulling him out from his imminent tortures and hardship and let him become a freeman.A fugitive, nothing more. Nevertheless, he still could feel the fresh wind brushing through his hair with his skin feeling the warmth of the sunlight. A free bird that would be hunted by the ferocious hunting dogs sooner or later.

    When the night sky was covered with countless glittering stars, Elizabeth relaxed her back and laid down on all fours as the gentle breeze slightly soothed her distraught mind. Except for the chirping of the bugs nearby, there weren't any other sounds in the background, which made her more calmer as she readied for what to come.Even though she still didn't believe it at first, after looking at the two figures who were watching her silently in anticipation, now Elizabeth's confidence was shaken and wished that it wouldn't work. She knew that she needed this to work, but she would rather choose another way if she could. At the back of her mind, she was still a little hesitant to go along with it.Running the ring on her index finger, Elizabeth stared at the so-called magic item which would guide her. This time, she was prepared,

    After the blinding light subsided, Elizabeth gazed upon rows and rows of pictures on both sides of the wall with a long, unending corridor greeting her view.'I'm back.' she silently thought to herself, as she looked at the abstract art style that didn't make any sense.'Alright, let's not waste anymore time.'Glancing at the ring on her finger, the ring that she put all of her hope to, Elizabeth gently rubbed the gem for the sake of it and mumbled the required chant.The flow of foreign, hard to roll off the tongue words, came out of her mouth as she closed her eyes, entirely focused to not mess up with the pronunciation. Over and over, she remembered the lines of the magic words just for th

    'Is it really working…?'Doubting the ring on her finger, Elizabeth found herself treading the endless corridors illuminated in torches of bluish flames. She had been walking for an hour by now but there was no end to the corridor. Not to mention, except for the pictures, there were no signs of entrance all this time.'No… Aaron has no need to lie to me or give me a dud item. So… does that mean the exit is just that long?'Feeling her legs get tired, Elizabeth sighed and decided to take a rest. The dried jerky, salted fishes, and other foods were stored on her bag, including several waterskins. As her throat parched up, she took one of the waterskins and gulped a mouthful of water. Rejuvenating her spirit back while she looked at the ce

    'It's broken?''Is it really broken?'No matter how many times she took a look at the ring and rubbed her eyelids, Elizabeth saw a faint crack at the gem.The slight hope within her began to diminish in a second as it was replaced with desperation. Her lips moved to speak out the magical chant. However, after changing for the sixth time, there weren't any results at all.'You must be kidding me…'Regret flooded and she felt the corner of her eyes moistened. The already fatigued body slumped on the floor and the urge to laugh mockingly at herself kicked in.Never

    'Again… That name…'When she finally heard what the other party called her, Elizabeth furrowed as she took a deep breath. Another vision about someone called Ludwig. Previously, she didn't bother to think about it, especially since many things have happened to her after getting out of the gallery. Now, her interest was piqued, for it seems that these visions were intended for her.First, she would try to know more about this person through what others said. As she attentively listened to the chatter of the red haired young man, a man's shout vibrated and this time, Elizabeth felt her body jolted unconsciously."Ludwig!"Then, the red haired young man widened his eyes and slapped Eliza

    "Help… Me…"Those words rang inside her heart and boomed louder than a thunderbolt. Subconsciously, she wanted to move her body and rushed to the elf's side. However, no matter what she did, the body didn't move. In fact, she found her arms and legs were shaking before she keeled over and puked out.'Is this the first time Ludwig saw an injured person?'While Elizabeth pondered what had happened, at last, the legs took a step forward and ran to the elf. It seemed like her hands were reaching out for some items in their bag and rummaged through it. Before long, a small jar-shaped container as big as her palm was taken out and then the hand poured the content to the wound.The herbal sc

    '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
