Title: Shadow of the Eternal Flame - Chapter 4 : Unknown Legend ( Part 2 )

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtRXmM4SJG

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7tnRRJo1t

Deep silence… without end.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsv82Z3SbO

Khaled could no longer feel the ground beneath his feet, nor the cold, nor even his own body.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjcTnqpcrH

Only emptiness.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFyXGemjgh

A vast emptiness that seemed to swallow everything.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ixh3I8foJ

Then…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaUkt0hmDM

something slowly began to appear.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQMxlf8GAl

A throne.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAkXQzDB5Z

A massive throne made of pure darkness.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiRhnw24h4

A dark violet aura moved around it like living smoke, breathing slowly within the void.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUw1JlAHVhk

And upon it…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQsJixZKcG

sat a man.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL7AiY0nxh

Ancient black armor covered in countless scars from forgotten battles.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oa2Xi9jJh

Beside him rested a gigantic sword, releasing the same heavy purple glow.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZOeWWLoaq

But the thing that terrified Khaled the most…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxasusg0T2

was his eyes.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZKBVzEwsk

Calm…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMWBHejsUo

yet behind them was something that felt capable of devouring the entire world.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8YNNvLdPt

“Who… are you?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yPJQMPj9S

Khaled’s voice came out broken.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy28DbDiBdK

The man gave a faint smile.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMvymVNHIF

Then said:

“I am Shado.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlT4f7hHjo

Khaled froze instantly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliaUo7ueAW

As if the name alone had dragged every memory back before his eyes.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIizGqxKjyn

The fire.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIVXrjcmte

The screams.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPVWUVXakE

The blood of his parents.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxkgTUS8Zc

“You…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw8Oozec2X

Khaled clenched his fist violently.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GdMCwn1yW

“You’re the one who killed my mother and father.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6aVemZ8GB

Shado continued staring at him calmly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZr9wIRBw9

Then said:

“Your grandfather was truly skilled…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeI7uUiijL3

Khaled paused for a moment.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNT6wtNmKC

“My grandfather…?”

“You didn’t know?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC7u5vWrEi

Shado said it as if it were something completely ordinary.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzx1h9gMUu

“Wise Sef… is your grandfather.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfttOkfbL3X

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAjZLKLeXk

“He hid the truth from you.”

“He knew that if you became more attached to him…”

“…you would completely break once you lost him.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1or0pjLrAP

For a brief moment, neither of them spoke.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPsA6z7pMS

But the rage inside Khaled slowly began to boil.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2RGujDTcK

Then Shado said:

“Now that you know the truth…”

“Leave.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbngzxJ2jR

He slowly rose from the throne.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcx09vtEVW

The purple aura moved with him, as if darkness itself obeyed his will.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsDttmdvu4

“I will not help you.”

“And I will not repeat the mistake of leaving you alive if you remain here any longer.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5vQbvW1rN

The next instant—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVeJnEfUcr

Khaled moved.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZfHlblZS5

Shadow exploded beneath his feet and rushed toward Shado like a sharpened blade.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl6ldH2jQY

But—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF1glRozmq

the darkness vanished before it could even touch him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S1IssKP5S

As if Khaled’s power had been completely swallowed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sIqcoQ5Nl

“You truly believe…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb8At8DUPF

Shado spoke with terrifying calmness.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMSByH3fyd

“…that darkness can harm me?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9W1R0fnEa

Khaled charged again.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy1cbBxiUM

This time with his sword.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtRulnXrwn

A scream of rage escaped him as he attacked with every last bit of strength he had left.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZk3j7Z9NIp

The blade crashed against Shado’s armor.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTAQw00yFk

But the armor did not move even slightly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qwrAm1k0G

Then—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyaNJEG372

a single strike from Shado.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vuAqyVP6E

Khaled felt as though the entire world had slammed into him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiXHYakAou

He crashed violently onto the black ground, the air completely ripped from his lungs.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCeSi0cGsg

He tried to stand.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJgYbcO0Tn

Then fell.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q2D0BD4BG

Tried again.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTUel05xn5

And collapsed once more.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjWwoT9uKJ

Shado watched him silently.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqPPjZoIg9

Then said:

“Weak…”

“But…”

His words paused for a moment.

“Stubborn.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ihfyFM4f0

Khaled slowly lifted his head.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmPGgZTDqh

Blood ran from the corner of his mouth.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDjjhvr4Vp

Yet his eyes never lowered.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknPacNm7xP

“I won’t…”

He struggled to breathe.

“I won’t let him die…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo8OOEnqim

Then he stood once again.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ttK2fzFk1

Slowly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJWUpZX5Kg

Shaking.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhgovY0kLA

But standing nonetheless.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgnh0Y7ZiL

At that moment…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi0VAjBEVM

something in Shado’s gaze slightly changed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77g1WPk2AT

“You remind me of them…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qv8uV3Cbr

He stepped closer.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78vwjU4V5q

“Your parents.”

“That foolish determination…”

“…before I killed them.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhgkxe4HG1

Khaled’s breathing stopped.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvs2yojASne

Then—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hXPWGyy6J

something exploded inside him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmegHS2tzG

A scream burst from his throat, shaking the entire void itself.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9AkEF3eOC

The shadows around him moved violently, as if they had completely lost control.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxccnxekUUr

And suddenly—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgLYzEy2Dx

the darkness began gathering within his hand.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MsciCty8B

Not as chains.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUSDZkn25c

Not as an aura.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvmffSM3re

But as a sword.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hZppLqLy6

A long black sword, dense and overwhelming, releasing the same violet glow as Shado’s.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLGpqv9YiA

And for the first time…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JC8jEIEfd

Shado’s smile disappeared.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96ptR5WSCJ

“Impossible…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOE4sQDN37

His eyes fixed on the sword.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqOX9TN7Yb

“That ability…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCjtY5x4Ka

The next instant—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofETAvwEJk

Khaled rushed forward.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YrQ1xRpKY

He moved faster than before.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn87J2IT5cu

Not because he had fully become stronger…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozfuxp18iR

but because his rage was forcing his body beyond its limits.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig68vyglxE

His strike broke through Shado’s defense.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmk2txyTQM

And for the first time—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ101qnttrDD

a crack appeared on the black armor.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi27aFJLWns

The air itself felt frozen.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCz304kNrw

Shado looked at the crack…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf45i2r4Fao

then back at Khaled.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIYXF4koVs

And Khaled was barely standing.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslPdbkv7g5

The sword slowly began fading from his hand while his body collapsed from exhaustion.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJBsBeGWhi

Then he fell to one knee.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAlE3ytZ0m

Yet despite that…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6IsJs0JAr

he smiled.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ424pZ4eUdz

“I hit you…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetvkSAgdpI

A low laugh escaped from Shado.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceqoeHmTpc

Not mockery this time.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvOObI787w

But genuine interest.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslIBMTDkN6

“…Interesting.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkBdrtAaM4

He slowly approached him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y1JoGjTP0

The purple aura began surrounding Khaled little by little.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcbvynCNDX

“You use darkness in a very interesting way.”

“That is why…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VLSBPoRYO

He looked directly into his eyes.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDalFnwmm9S

“I will help you…”

“…only this once.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS7BINbGh4

In the next moment—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIN2yyUCgX

everything returned.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9wDbnvBtV

The cold.

The ice.

The battle.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zvyngyQBv

Khaled suddenly opened his eyes.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTBYoaOheu

Neol stood directly before Abdulrahman.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUkqTXKfUr

His ice blade raised—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6ngVWJCg5

only a single moment away from striking down.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLJkghjr4a

But before it could move—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAAR6gOwtb

a massive shadow appeared in front of Abdulrahman.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2Olc4WEV4

A shield.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUTsCePmpw

A black shield formed from darkness itself, completely blocking the icy strike.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHomT1tv3q

For the first time—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc41cQg2Ue

Neol’s eyes widened.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3T1FsdYTT

As for Khaled…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJBuCfhpwt

something inside him had changed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0UTGKKyQX

The power within his body no longer felt the same.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxevSpV4jn

And in his hand—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyWAoItFuU

a sword appeared.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFe4NV8Lcg

But not the sword he had created before.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQctaHw9Spj

This blade was far larger.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5YnRNqaXr

Heavier.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jNKxWdchK

A terrifying purple aura flowed from it endlessly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1V5aOFnkw8

“So…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVLbxNMVfS

Khaled whispered.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxF5IOLhEn

“This is your power, Shado…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0UdOfWMRB

Shadow exploded beneath his feet.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpp64xMmZoe

And in a single instant—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJVUA95Gov

Khaled vanished.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQS1pKWp2M

Neol tried to react—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCmaqqUMN9

but Khaled appeared directly in front of him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsJdu6b1aB

One strike.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzm1kiup0n

The black blade passed through the ice…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fPuGNWofl

as if it had never existed at all.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmsvIECPF3

Neol’s eyes widened.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmn1h2pfbms

Then a dark line appeared across his body.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3OzeiawOz

And in the very next moment—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqCFvkDIdZ

the entire frozen battlefield exploded apart.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpEoMsm3Mz

Neol dropped to his knees.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9Dibf61bS

The icy seal on his forehead slowly began to crack.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZShAFtWZK3

Then—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIdEqATzFp

he collapsed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDqzNemDGN

The shadows surrounding Khaled gradually calmed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrgQjCRhJZ

And Abdulrahman felt the flames inside him finally stabilize again.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4cbRBo0gE

Their wounds slowly began healing beneath the darkness surrounding them.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LNhhnFeoH

But the power disappeared just as quickly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWP0IF5b0Ue

Khaled collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg33bzIx3XL

Beside him…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQZq3axE6b

Abdulrahman fell as well.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpHE8VwCtk

Both of them looked toward Zira…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnPVzCwzmX

silent forever.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7T4Z3i2DF

And for the first time in years…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xrgMpjTmN

Khaled could not find a single word to say.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqAUiBAtNq

Hours later…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhADpr9fz4m

the two stood before Zira’s grave.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTH1cTlyie

The air was still.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpgbdZ5QAM

And the silence felt heavier than the war itself.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCsa1EIw4e

Then Wise Sef appeared.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgBIyWNbLZ

He stood before the grave for a long time…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNjOKwbmhm

before quietly saying:

“He was… my dearest friend.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3jMJjEiU7

Khaled suddenly looked at him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwCf17LAsq

Then asked:

“Why did you hide the truth from me… grandfather?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoXA12K1Wd

Sef froze in place.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYobqOGskvX

“…Did Zira tell you?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzg7JHBOmE

Khaled slowly shook his head.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVltrcr2So

“No.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iMtw7Cvq0

“Shado did.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gPLvXIUGK

And in that instant—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBOLlOBowu

all calmness disappeared from Sef’s face.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSkKsIWoLy

“What?!”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSeDKQGhbC

He stepped toward him immediately.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PG99ngqiP

“You spoke to him?!”

“He helped me.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXzJ99j1gd

Sef remained silent for a moment.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnokzxDbpwh

Then said in a heavy voice:

“Listen to me carefully, Khaled…”

“Shado is not just a spirit.”

“He is a disaster.”

“If he ever completely takes control of you…”

“…everyone you love will die.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUjlTzSeq9

Khaled clenched his fist.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WFjMHg6ET

Then quietly replied:

“But he saved us.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHivjvfipca

Sef stared at him for a long time.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpsuo5egrL

Then slowly closed his eyes.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAgPqaPlzX

“…Then he has acknowledged you.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGen0cC6f3F

Elsewhere…

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3If3dUaoD

inside a dark frozen hall—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlvP8Mxbja

a man sat upon a throne of ice.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYHMuLpCPp

His face hidden beneath the shadows.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIfvMsflI5

But his blue eyes shone with deadly coldness.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikF5Jk3Xj5

The Ice King.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp6mN8U3KY

"Salman".

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqeBi2ZUz6

One of the soldiers knelt before him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGxMvCZ6r0

“My lord…”

“Neol… has fallen.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWsYEUW8pg

For a moment, the room became deathly quiet.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuz9Z2pfDs

Then Salman spoke calmly:

“Impossible.”

“He possessed the First Level of the Ice Seal.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FrG6REspR

The soldier swallowed his fear.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3TanT4k4N

Then continued:

“The one who defeated him… was a shadow user.”

“From Aros.”

“And he ended the battle with a single strike… using a massive black sword.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFMP3nujak

Suddenly—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94CCNQn8Pe

the atmosphere inside the hall changed.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe68JudVGe

“…A black sword?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94viWfcjkx

Salman slowly rose from his throne.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcambnPlfq8

“Has the Shadow Lord returned…?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZQNyzpdTE

The silence inside the hall deepened.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA5tsV0Dvm

Then Salman let out a cold, quiet laugh.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkPXe2Awe8

“It does not matter…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb02KnmXwC4

He turned toward the darkness behind him.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOLzF7rkn2

“Can you do it, Rose?”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwiaHE0xs1

From within the shadows—

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuX0z8UBxj1

a girl with icy eyes stepped forward.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTF8E6aKj0

She bowed quietly.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xqty8zzQ5

“As you command… my king.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt3mphv4YQ

Salman smiled.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunEfshbKWn

But there was no warmth in that smile.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonCBDITU8q

“Prepare yourselves, Aros…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hNt2q5C5H

The air inside the hall froze completely.

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQW9irDNVar

“Your own people…”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZR3XrAwgM

“…will be the ones who destroy you.”

92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRPD3jkhPn
