2021-10-16 22:19:52A feeling of Deja Vu surfaced while Elizabeth halted her steps and stood motionlessly. Without delay, she took out the pepper spray and a pocket knife. The second item she had bought for self defense.
But then, she knew that these items did not amount to much. As a shudder spread through her skin, she glanced at her back. The notion of running back to where she came emerged in her head and this time without Aaron in sight, the idea was very tempting.
'But… Should I really run away? Is there no chance for me to have a talk with those hooded people, about the real reason for why they want to capture me…'
After all, she only heard Aaron's side about the hooded people. Maybe, there was another side that she didn't know and they could have a talk a

Unveiling himself from the shade of the nearby building was a man whose feature hidden behind an emerald painted full mask. The mask resembled an expression of someone laughing and angry at the same time, while the attire the figure wore was a dark green trench coat.A similarly colored golf hat sat on top of his head as one of his hands gripped what appeared to be a fireman hatchet. His piercing amber gaze glowed under the darkness, giving a shuddering aura to those stare at him."You…"As if he knew the identity of the masked figure, the hooded man took a step forward and let go of the stump that used to be his arm. His other hand was pointing to the masked figure. Ready to unleash myriads of attacks if he needs it.<

The smell of the cigarette permeated the room while the breezing winds from a small fan caused it to spread thoroughly. Stacks of papers full of scribbles and pieces of photos from newspapers were pinned on a whiteboard, which every single one had a long red thread connected to another piece of picture or a piece of a newspaper section.The first thing that came to Elizabeth's mind was a classic detective movie she had watched. There were even some antiques that would be hard to find these days, such as a rotary dial, typewriter, and even the old CRT. It was as if Elizabeth had entered a museum instead of someone's house."This is… quite an interesting place," commented Elizabeth with excitement evident in her eyes, "How do you get all of these items? Even my dad hasn't had them ever since he graduated from high sc

"A murderer...?"Giving a second look to the masked figure, Elizabeth put on a complex expression while she observed the situation. Meanwhile, Kevin, who took Elizabeth's silence as her being afraid, swiftly tried to shield her more so than before. At the same time he also stared down the figure before him. Waiting for the slightest movement for him to attack."A murderer?" seemingly confused with the statement, the masked figure probed, "Do you mean the hooded guy from before? That was your doing, wasn't it?""Don't act innocent here," still maintaining his wariness and caution, Kevin responded, "I've seen your mask and attire back in Verdan city. You murdered the members of Sacred Heart, along with some police officers and civilians a few months ago, didn't you

"...An ally of Aaron?"Widening her eyes, Elizabeth probed further, "Then, is it really true that Aaron is in this area? Both of us should meet each other right about now. But… As you know, there were some circumstances.""Meeting with Aaron in this place?" making a thinking gesture, the masked figure shook his head, "Aaron didn't come to this city. If he did, I would be the first to know. He went to 'That' plane in order to track the Sacred Heart's headquarters."This time, it was Kevin who immediately interjected, "Wait, wait. The headquarters of the Sacred Heart? Where is 'That Plane' you are talking about?""Oh?" moving his eyes to Kevin, the figure replied, "Is that information attracting your interest,

"Targeted…" connecting the dots in his head, Kevin questioned, "By the Sacred Heart's members? Why?""How should I know?" answered Elizabeth without skipping a beat, as if she had already predicted the question, "But if what Aaron had said, the man who had fought with the Sacred Heart members and saved twice from them, was true. Then, that's more reason for me to go. I… Want the truth and a cure.""Aaron…" muttering the name softly, Kevin then shook his head and said, "No, it's too dangerous. Elizabeth, what's it that you wanted to know and cure for? You don't have to go to wherever this secret plane was to search for the cure.""You mean… Going to the hospital?" looking downcast, Elizabeth replied, "It's no use, I've done that. As for the dangero

Rose up to the sitting position in wariness, Elizabeth looked over her surroundings in wariness. Instinctively, she blurted out of surprise as she knew full well that she should be the only person within the room."Who!?"Unsurprisingly, there was no answer. Gazing at the door, she could see that the door and the latch were locked. Though the room's light bulb might be the old one which reflected yellowish glows, it was still more than bright enough to illuminate every corner of the place.'...Is it my imagination?' mused Elizabeth after she found no sign of life in the room beside her.Suddenly, the light bulb right on the middle of the ceiling was flickering incessantly. Amidst the short period o

It was nearly midnight, and the night sky was picturesque. A black to navy gradient was the backdrop for a full moon. The night sky was so clear you could see almost every sparkling star beyond the infinite space through the translucent window.There, Elizabeth gazed upon the full moon with a blank expression plastered all over her face. Her chin laid on top of her hand, a soft sigh of resignation flowed out of her lips with memories of the long past months surfaced one by one.The night she was attacked by a mythical creature called a wraith. Something Elizabeth had asked from Iron Veil for the whole day. Fortunately, the latter was patient enough to listen to her ignorant and incessant questions. Kevin, who wasn't that far from them, would join in and listen on the side.

As she dragged her feets on the tiled floor, her eyes became more glazed the closer she was to the door. Yet, at the last second, with her hand was about to reach the door's handle, a voice came to her mind.'"Follow the door."'It snapped her out of her reverie in an instant. Recalling the familiar voice of the unknown figure, suspicion flooded her head and she realized what had happened to her. Immediately, she backed down and tried to gain some distance between her and the mysterious door.'The heck, I almost touched it without thinking. What's wrong with me?'Giving the door a second look, Elizabeth squinted her eyes and wandered her eyes around. There was only the door in the middle of the roo

'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
Chapter 196 - At Last
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
