Title: Shadow of the Eternal Flame - Chapter 5 : The Second Enemy ( Part 2 )

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ocyga2zQd

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceX3QBwhir

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe2Xmhkfvj

The air froze for a moment.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW4LM3joY0

Even Khaled felt that her name alone carried something unnatural.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskJGASl1Co

Rose slowly stepped down from the ice-

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAQLPzVpYu

covered rocks.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLGxBqxnLs

Her footsteps made no sound.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWYWBqmGqr

As if the cold itself was carrying her.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUvpI2dwVi

She stopped directly in front of them.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0Ktl8PaEM

Her icy blue eyes shifted toward Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDzoqBRXfV

Then a faint smile appeared on her face.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljqR2sOEQe

“You look a lot like them…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM2f4wrM3o

Khaled narrowed his eyes.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXcQVJkSqw

“Like who?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqLpPuf2OJ

But Saif answered instead, his voice filled with anger:

“Do not speak their names.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWpyleyF2s

Rose looked at him calmly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY4bmupWcB

“Luna… and Kiz.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFmV4dQgso

In the next moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB0c0xLhbX

Khaled’s expression completely changed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BF6AYpnvi

The air around him grew heavier.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdhVG1PJfZ

“You knew my parents?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIOrLgKNox

Rose laughed softly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3V5EtzfzRn

“We knew each other very well.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMbi1FTWWx

The freezing wind slowly moved around her.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFjSulxBMn

“We were all students of Master Saif.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5cgqFr9R4

Then she looked directly at the old man.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHyY0PNxzS

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb5UlxUwRw

Saif’s expression hardened.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOk0NHuQ6x

“You were never weak.”

“You were simply greedy.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTs85TICGG

The smile on Rose’s face slowly faded.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKgST7Z1da

Then she spoke in a calm voice:

“Greedy?”

“No…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZmwffY1Rg

She slowly raised her hand.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDDAWVqPWQ

Crystals of ice began forming around her fingers.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGgWcWhVmQ

“I simply refused to remain weak.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy2KSBqeyE

In a single moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCepsniUPaj

Ice exploded around her.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwFqIzijQi

The sound of freezing echoed throughout the forest.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo34e6JL0z

Even the ground beneath them rapidly turned white with frost.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4mmrB5QTI

“Luna and Kiz died because they were weak.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqilVgFbK4

She said it while staring directly at Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUbn7Oxk2b

“As for me…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDWkiuSz4p

A cold smile appeared on her face.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcHphCONT8

“The Ice King granted me power.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Jgq1OyGg

Khaled tightened his grip on his sword.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjMd3omfMd

A weak shadow aura slowly moved beneath his feet.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3iZjAPIgc

But it was unstable.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0G4aFxgi9

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0H31ru4uY

He could barely use the aura now…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSc0y2FdQlh

And was relying mostly on swordsmanship alone.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr90s1BHdwi

“Do not mention them again.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTxKidb757

Rose’s smile widened slightly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLNcMePCLJ

“And what will you do?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlP7ldUSh1

In the next moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCNYsiNdJP

Khaled rushed forward instantly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmikIkjkmQ

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVxxo5Tg6r

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp0n5e87QL

But suddenly—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MbTNzkAy5

Another blade blocked his strike.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07ho42xzsZ

Fiery sparks exploded into the air.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡot99lpS13G

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpYUf9H5iE

“…Abdulrahman?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHzveFfUro

Abdulrahman stood directly in front of Rose.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAdJdEboFl

His eyes were empty.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1GxHOMYWA

Without emotion.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LMgGkT9MT

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLTFw50dPc

“Move out of the way!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkV2Q9bUAR1

Khaled shouted angrily.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlt1qhbGSlJ

But Abdulrahman immediately attacked him.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmlEs8L37y

A fast strike forced Khaled backward.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyMHlrVB1p

The two swords collided violently.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabEvHqFqwe

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFWJKPnyFo

But Khaled was not fighting seriously.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRfJr3bXx5

He kept retreating.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvIHMiaQOd

Trying to understand what was happening.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdgzpoxfvR

“He’s under her control!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9tvmeUzbu

Saif shouted.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24WXOdFfzm

Then he quickly raised his staff.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1dxuL224r

Glowing blue symbols appeared around Abdulrahman.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAe8SC5cha

But Rose smiled calmly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ628xHetQhH

“That won’t work.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlndq7wmj3N

She slowly lifted one finger.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7v2EPURgRz

Suddenly—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyIlGeoBT4

Abdulrahman’s eyes changed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZjl882ukR

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTuTQNbUqR

Then the flames around his body erupted even more violently.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9oY7mZmxQ

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS27IhlQQI

Rose said proudly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4WQekwhxa

“Complete control over the mind.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBAerOwUJf

Abdulrahman suddenly disappeared from sight.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwdjSeRur5

In the next instant—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtusWOymyzN

He appeared directly behind Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQSBOAGyb4

A massive wave of fire exploded toward him.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHXohJkCkt

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH1zIM8OiG

The impact violently pushed him across the ground.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIbnvImrOI

The earth cracked beneath his feet.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsorQULokM

“Khaled!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf1g4pMwAK

he shouted desperately.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwzj9k07QZ

“Wake up!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJBetqSm5M

But nothing changed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3MIlCRqpW

Abdulrahman stood silently.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRlLcAPTCD

Then slowly raised his sword again.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zpSAoJykA

At that moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5zoIrr3W0

Saif finally intervened.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNX8YeNGWZt

A powerful strike from his staff stopped Abdulrahman briefly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4sdSHUftz

Glowing spells surrounded his body.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFvrNxXLiU

“Wake up, boy!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vsAY8HdRF

the old master shouted.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFQyhuGHVL

Abdulrahman’s body trembled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw31RFDg8e

The flames around him became unstable.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEcPbkfx6S

And for one brief moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVmnUAF3ge

His eyes returned to normal.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVT2ceqhfB

“K… Khaled…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwZ1AC3ZaH

But before he could continue—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7FGZGH8dG

Rose smiled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx9XrYmeLB

This time, her smile felt terrifying.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4vgkzi16x

Then she slowly closed her hand.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX6VQQGkZv

Suddenly—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtOXrsQDXD

Abdulrahman froze.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0LHz2tAAj

Then raised his head once more.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQ6PNlfqoF

And the terrifying emptiness returned to his eyes.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjhJ0MmdNX

Rose let out a quiet sigh.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWBSUnf4lk

“I entered his mind myself.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4AdghP5DT

Then she looked at Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkhiILlJHH

“And there…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpVNG7ZUL7

Her smile widened.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W2OokBxYa

“I found a chained monster named Zero.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPpPrSH49T

Khaled’s expression instantly changed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSMMf7TrIp

“What?”

“We made a deal.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZLbT8JbVJ

She said it as if it were nothing.

“He allows me to control Abdulrahman…”

“And in return…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65RYNNkebj

Her smile briefly froze.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vCgtBgLpD

“I free him.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB57j2aYG3

The flames around Abdulrahman suddenly exploded.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvXZ4vrQSp

But this time—

They were unstable.

Chaotic.

Violent.

Terrifying.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cJn6MBea0

Even Saif felt the danger.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0s0L7bsyHm

“Rose…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2H60U85HN

His voice became heavier.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5CNg73yfJ

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3JlwMB4xK

But she laughed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54a9jH6pno

“No…”

“I understand perfectly.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wg2Gli02I

Then she slowly raised her hand toward Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS3G6DBSks

“After I control all of you…”

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

“And then…”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyt0be2B6O1

She closed her eyes with a cold smile.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOmY87vbz3

“The king will be very pleased.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfk57Gmxer6

Khaled rushed forward again.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzQkmueeqR

But Abdulrahman instantly blocked his path.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U3iqKT8Ay

Fast strikes.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXeJIHL9dL

Fire and shadow clashing repeatedly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FcpkdNXxE

Explosions echoed through the forest.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHY65p0o3L

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERvxvUjGL8

But the real problem…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVSpaKsAPU

Was that Khaled did not want to hurt his friend.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmJeS87Pec

And it showed clearly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfbGIYq6Xd

Every strike from him carried hesitation.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7NBilnijx

Restraint.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdaVv0GjrT

Which slowly allowed Abdulrahman to overpower him.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkX8CDxhpF

“Master!”

Khaled shouted.

“Help me!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H3RPcia0C

But…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj47vvfXsr

No response came.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABkcj88VMU

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcX5VmNsyG

He quickly turned—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi4EVmMvmG

Only to find Saif standing motionless.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPkgpkB0zh

His eyes…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiam9bP2mK

Completely empty.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY1sV8ubWo

Rose smiled calmly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKaDlgmD9K

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJqwuiCgzE

In the next moment—

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcpvIBLeoh

Saif began walking toward Khaled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfWbQZKvEy

Slowly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pn26z4VbC

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqsAGPKyFY

And now…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y5OlJKrAE

He stood facing his master… and his closest friend…

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLQclkckin

Both trying to kill him.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00vcX35q55

Khaled slowly took a step back.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEr8uTGPVO

His breath grew heavy.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dGVvhEEih

Not from fear…

But from pressure.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gDqZemtxR

The pressure of battle.

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRExxfBgWv

He gripped his sword even tighter.

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMRkksVQ3L

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

Empty eyes.

Without a hint of hesitation.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZzNE1kyqw

And between them…

Rose watched the scene with a cold smile.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQltcBPU31

“What’s wrong, Khaled?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6QxnOy7qA

She said quietly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkxMo1fYM6

“Aren’t you going to fight?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDiByjU0ZL

The first strike came.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaxSpS7Fzi

Saif appeared before him faster than he had anticipated.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YuxyocNkE

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFpakF7Sin

A loud crash echoed through the forest.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ740IsOBXCl

Khaled felt his arm shake from the impact.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvxXq1V4Gc

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bYU0cl2J4

Abdulrahman.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W5osE9OGA

A swift horizontal strike forced him to duck instantly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4OTu7jBap

The fire passed directly over his head.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNQxYSzMUA

Its heat was enough to scorch some of his hair.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FMsJPfeJv

Khaled jumped back quickly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDLP3fIOze

Then he looked at them in shock.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRrZA6WPzE

“They just won’t stop…” Rose smiled.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIdTTzhBmU

“Because I’ve taken away their hesitation.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq3ppPsHxO

Then she slowly raised a finger.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxZQaDUQgw

“But you…” Her smile widened slightly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ifZ0jZL4W

“You’re still too faint-hearted.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ614sUyDxzs

The next moment—

They attacked him together.

Saif from the front.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSy6Dj1Ipp

And Abdul Rahman from the side.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz0uzPnC9O

The staff and the fiery sword struck Khaled almost simultaneously.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtRe3KJqM5

He tried to block both blows—

but he failed.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdQzeKhSLX

Saif’s strike propelled him forward.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pCnbpJMXu

The next moment, fire erupted on his shoulder.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9jFhK1mbP

He stumbled backward violently, crashing into a tree trunk.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XX2wPghe4

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObLBa0Cd7H

Khaled groaned with difficulty.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRXvtrPKwM

Then he slowly raised his head.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVuG1MDOtO

Rose was approaching.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVErm2iG5i

Calm.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRVn9kUlHZ

Confident.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ta6mf3IYe

“See?”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7k3NvJo7OF

The icy aura around her intensified.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd2GOAv5UC

“You’re not like your parents.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHYkgC7a4q

“They were ready to sacrifice everything.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pybihpYpf

Then she looked at Abdul Rahman.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsizlNjs9l0

“But you…”

She pointed at Khalid.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Aom8rVSY7

“You can’t even hit your own friend.”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrtiShOzPX

Khalid clenched his fist tightly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8iXKriLAZ

Her words struck him.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXtBZAyGhE

And that was exactly what she wanted.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVkvri4TPv

Suddenly—

Abdul Rahman reappeared.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAJEx0CMV3

A bullet shot straight to his face.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZr0dbSCDgY

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDs6A3ZwSC

Fire erupted around them.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqj5YAh2VT1

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2koGfDtKa

Abdul Rahman moved closer.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d97Yhccla

Then he whispered, his voice faint and broken:

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd1yWtH7yI

“…Run…”

Khalid’s eyes widened.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivSXyyiaUK

“Abdul Rahman?!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fEqAhkgnS

But his eyes immediately went blank again.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmZjoEUAeu

Then he shoved Khalid violently.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD45pBDbSs

Khalid flew several meters above the ground before tumbling heavily.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhDWYAaLlh

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtSrkRXnGs

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

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoSA7Ftvhc

“Damn it…” He looked toward the pendant.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5VowCXPtK

Then he closed his hand over it.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpnpkTtwAn

“Shadow…”

No response.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzUoGmNq8M

“You bastard, help me!”

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BfZcOQ2L1

The darkness inside the pendant remained silent.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOwnxSgHmc

Rose approached slowly.

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADOKy1NjiH

Prepare for destruction...

101Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSgS85Of5X
