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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7QiUtdYyP

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXSHl10qje

Deep silence… without end.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xBHfPlagO

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1El2wj6SEE

Only emptiness.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfZ0P469LV

A vast emptiness that seemed to swallow everything.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHN5yo3qOn8

Then…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5teJgkWo5J

something slowly began to appear.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPssVnNbkh

A throne.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNfUl8vlpN

A massive throne made of pure darkness.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmkK2cuCly

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgGnvn6Q7Y

And upon it…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpELc2hhUmG

sat a man.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvbNJnBgYd

Ancient black armor covered in countless scars from forgotten battles.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkYrD1Unmo

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElNGMW5rDq

But the thing that terrified Khaled the most…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2RM3EzbWe

was his eyes.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1US3RdBhB9

Calm…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUYaSgm6UN

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiBF8WYj6T

“Who… are you?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS1sh1wZjV

Khaled’s voice came out broken.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH24GJdExq

The man gave a faint smile.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDXAMAmOZp

Then said:

“I am Shado.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrl8x7kmn7

Khaled froze instantly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hoMWm27MS

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPzW6xqCKN

The fire.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKUd8Aae8W

The screams.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsmqZHYc7P

The blood of his parents.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDXuoYw4Zy

“You…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlArpDKuOP

Khaled clenched his fist violently.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd5WUcysR6

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mJXykjfV7

Shado continued staring at him calmly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8HApqJdk7

Then said:

“Your grandfather was truly skilled…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbipHbNKDJq

Khaled paused for a moment.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOOnceH5RN

“My grandfather…?”

“You didn’t know?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHl3MDZLeh

Shado said it as if it were something completely ordinary.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vteLlicXn

“Wise Sef… is your grandfather.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCS8UDioeS

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HVzahPGKT

“He hid the truth from you.”

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

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zB2nk87Tx

For a brief moment, neither of them spoke.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4rKaGbgnm

But the rage inside Khaled slowly began to boil.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXleHTC1jq

Then Shado said:

“Now that you know the truth…”

“Leave.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWr1XQXsMX

He slowly rose from the throne.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkxJ39Dq42

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX6umljxFP

“I will not help you.”

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3FP3nJLPn

The next instant—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuy3EytHO9

Khaled moved.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZDj0YjGK8

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePlc6uVPgF

But—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtW7lGxXue

the darkness vanished before it could even touch him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgPJqixhdL

As if Khaled’s power had been completely swallowed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhG1QyjjwK

“You truly believe…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVHf14Dwq6

Shado spoke with terrifying calmness.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH0tL7Gecc

“…that darkness can harm me?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD0PR7KhzL

Khaled charged again.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5NPAlKTyK

This time with his sword.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFQ9bOZL2L

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3ggMYSjD1

The blade crashed against Shado’s armor.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlsqSZ5p9J

But the armor did not move even slightly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzqyaI6YTH

Then—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4LIgIEArE

a single strike from Shado.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡia6Clrn9lX

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz1XCJQYUS

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12LCUqFeHJ

He tried to stand.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AkMtPdYjR

Then fell.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4H8shzkdO

Tried again.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaf6U2cxIuv

And collapsed once more.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0FphZVpE6

Shado watched him silently.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX0gxCMQfY

Then said:

“Weak…”

“But…”

His words paused for a moment.

“Stubborn.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla5L7AdpRj

Khaled slowly lifted his head.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanjTMPdQk0

Blood ran from the corner of his mouth.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pmf0x5HDF

Yet his eyes never lowered.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjLODqqj6Z

“I won’t…”

He struggled to breathe.

“I won’t let him die…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaLw4egR8P

Then he stood once again.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroojtxCUhI

Slowly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrs1TfvbTy

Shaking.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYImh1gD3wN

But standing nonetheless.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqYOPtsIqf

At that moment…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyNMKcL8Y1

something in Shado’s gaze slightly changed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nnP8ZyWPu

“You remind me of them…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VerLT7D7L

He stepped closer.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf0eOBP3CC

“Your parents.”

“That foolish determination…”

“…before I killed them.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3swIELrmVf

Khaled’s breathing stopped.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoU8XJVFL0

Then—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxRQJKeuxt

something exploded inside him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I5FduQoH9

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzKP6CsAY3

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yUb18KW7I

And suddenly—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEw7fHJhXO

the darkness began gathering within his hand.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIhJijxHy3

Not as chains.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U0xBegz9R

Not as an aura.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxF0BCIrvW

But as a sword.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRM44eFiyq

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfiU0KdYoK

And for the first time…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmtdMHsZKV

Shado’s smile disappeared.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvNKQ2bR1F

“Impossible…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmrJ3Lf4GF

His eyes fixed on the sword.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UPpdTtllW

“That ability…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiB9lWRxrF

The next instant—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0qVT3WpTE

Khaled rushed forward.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcUQRKqYDj

He moved faster than before.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsDfOshnmp

Not because he had fully become stronger…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXyZTgOiHw

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp26qSGKGY

His strike broke through Shado’s defense.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHtGPFQxJU

And for the first time—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFiKRXFXOu

a crack appeared on the black armor.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLveQFaJ8H

The air itself felt frozen.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRV94M507K

Shado looked at the crack…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy8VPmlZ1X

then back at Khaled.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEibWjekDp

And Khaled was barely standing.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpJk5vFaua

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2wgpPqEkB

Then he fell to one knee.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jb0rateNX

Yet despite that…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDew3WKkACJ

he smiled.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT7LEDtUQJ

“I hit you…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmtpwIrjE3

A low laugh escaped from Shado.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPPuEwAR2G

Not mockery this time.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdxMkkvwEF

But genuine interest.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡle5kRKE9X9

“…Interesting.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo6qHuGh0K

He slowly approached him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkC2pab92O

The purple aura began surrounding Khaled little by little.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMGZw3LwV8

“You use darkness in a very interesting way.”

“That is why…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAC5Mpkj2I

He looked directly into his eyes.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8cYgklGha

“I will help you…”

“…only this once.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjP2iN4UbW

In the next moment—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI4TFif2KD

everything returned.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5hUgxQl9J

The cold.

The ice.

The battle.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov0n0Cli06

Khaled suddenly opened his eyes.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FlVJtGHRg

Neol stood directly before Abdulrahman.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i5sI4Svs4

His ice blade raised—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30XG8RDmn1

only a single moment away from striking down.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvl819XaN5x

But before it could move—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIinqb8HJv

a massive shadow appeared in front of Abdulrahman.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F9llMg6sF

A shield.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL1SayiHxN

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarpuEIokiO

For the first time—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECgbo2Oka7

Neol’s eyes widened.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPdABgAzW9

As for Khaled…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx2dhygfIM

something inside him had changed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MOoqmytWu

The power within his body no longer felt the same.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyQPCQZc0f

And in his hand—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9v1A3H7SDb

a sword appeared.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbum8YkAiNf

But not the sword he had created before.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENlnNmPFMG

This blade was far larger.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRrXoMLAYJ

Heavier.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyagcBcvD0

A terrifying purple aura flowed from it endlessly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjlZXaLqB8

“So…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ1YsAeV6w

Khaled whispered.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzxc09ADjr

“This is your power, Shado…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCzl4bRkIn

Shadow exploded beneath his feet.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwsElYj0Yt

And in a single instant—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8DP25KVRA

Khaled vanished.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Izk1doXPX

Neol tried to react—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQyvyk1hZ7

but Khaled appeared directly in front of him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu6XJkCczF

One strike.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv0Oy85DC3

The black blade passed through the ice…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4CcEjch2A

as if it had never existed at all.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6nvP8vGRw

Neol’s eyes widened.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JoY8zpVEH

Then a dark line appeared across his body.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuc00dGPU5

And in the very next moment—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FxgxTLMDl

the entire frozen battlefield exploded apart.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHZ7cV8fdC

Neol dropped to his knees.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rux3DwGCZ

The icy seal on his forehead slowly began to crack.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7X8K8HpSC

Then—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhqRGQ6BZj

he collapsed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfB9UKeTjHE

The shadows surrounding Khaled gradually calmed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaFg5s9Top

And Abdulrahman felt the flames inside him finally stabilize again.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalA7eyothP

Their wounds slowly began healing beneath the darkness surrounding them.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TmIPIt7KL

But the power disappeared just as quickly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPGoDnaDqO

Khaled collapsed to the ground from exhaustion.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z1Mo7diFD

Beside him…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpazfaH5XU

Abdulrahman fell as well.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMBrFbU8Z3

Both of them looked toward Zira…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwqvJ47XOQ

silent forever.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9YsTjg9Ob

And for the first time in years…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIqdgF1pTH

Khaled could not find a single word to say.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkN7LF9zN1N

Hours later…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynMjucB80m

the two stood before Zira’s grave.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVubkwjWo1u

The air was still.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wFQ7Fp2cS

And the silence felt heavier than the war itself.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkW5F99jNaV

Then Wise Sef appeared.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFP3Wt58HTX

He stood before the grave for a long time…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacGq9o9nTX

before quietly saying:

“He was… my dearest friend.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5f14xYOL1E

Khaled suddenly looked at him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndK5SSHaph

Then asked:

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXidwRxhZ1

Sef froze in place.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvV15vjNna

“…Did Zira tell you?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCka7Jryge3

Khaled slowly shook his head.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0Ab89jpoy

“No.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dz9eWEGjS

“Shado did.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonisGbn1YT

And in that instant—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtodhE2j5X4

all calmness disappeared from Sef’s face.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkB5jG0yMl

“What?!”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGC3xseXLE

He stepped toward him immediately.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CPMQ8KL3x

“You spoke to him?!”

“He helped me.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdevpxvK7s

Sef remained silent for a moment.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMioKIaTNTS

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.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxTseaTBtw

Khaled clenched his fist.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHqi9JckR1

Then quietly replied:

“But he saved us.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbZAubhZEK

Sef stared at him for a long time.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFh5VUlDJd

Then slowly closed his eyes.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRzmr4CKPV

“…Then he has acknowledged you.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EzlrxX3b1

Elsewhere…

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OaFjT1Tkc

inside a dark frozen hall—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIMOqzrRX4

a man sat upon a throne of ice.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxd4BuhVzs

His face hidden beneath the shadows.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqMI8xkBnZ

But his blue eyes shone with deadly coldness.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxb7n1g18DA

The Ice King.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPw0ILuGkv

"Salman".

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsc3sdn1km

One of the soldiers knelt before him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MSgt1Kc0S

“My lord…”

“Neol… has fallen.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVbM47PgA8

For a moment, the room became deathly quiet.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjV7rr156Q

Then Salman spoke calmly:

“Impossible.”

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

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZ7w2XvCc6

The soldier swallowed his fear.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA44xatJTV

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.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNF15xt5WI

Suddenly—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEA8pmwDFo

the atmosphere inside the hall changed.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl34Begr2M

“…A black sword?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5jYil7cqe

Salman slowly rose from his throne.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrke4MoXR9N

“Has the Shadow Lord returned…?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCItChTJ7w9

The silence inside the hall deepened.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplgorf57An

Then Salman let out a cold, quiet laugh.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE65tTchlAy

“It does not matter…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wbXQR0Wzr

He turned toward the darkness behind him.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowhy2Ksvjd

“Can you do it, Rose?”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtMcIP2eqN

From within the shadows—

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkfir5VLUG

a girl with icy eyes stepped forward.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1pbJ8q9zl

She bowed quietly.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xp27YjkjY

“As you command… my king.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKy5IDYGUd

Salman smiled.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajDjxXEgoV

But there was no warmth in that smile.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RUeN1v5FM

“Prepare yourselves, Aros…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulTaq8Pfeh

The air inside the hall froze completely.

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9Ti7CWlG3

“Your own people…”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBcNsFmRmz

“…will be the ones who destroy you.”

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZRRNZCCLn

............................

To be continued...

So, who is Rose? What does the Ice King intend to do? What will Khalid and Abdulrahman do? And what does it mean that your sons will destroy you? We will find out in Chapter Five.
