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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyONfL9fgP

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPvTSTmnWC

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7mCCOJb3E

The air froze for a moment.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkOdZANv7x

Even Khaled felt that her name alone carried something unnatural.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCy12zsV4n5

Rose slowly stepped down from the ice-

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzy4EljqBb9

covered rocks.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQefsUqKmZ

Her footsteps made no sound.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvRelD0Kgq

As if the cold itself was carrying her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6fs5NivHU

She stopped directly in front of them.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqDoNTx3VU

Her icy blue eyes shifted toward Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RHQ8EyHHi

Then a faint smile appeared on her face.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3VmVyaNBr

“You look a lot like them…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2Sg1Zd2q2

Khaled narrowed his eyes.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdwkUvV3TP

“Like who?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfnzpOtxpT

But Saif answered instead, his voice filled with anger:

“Do not speak their names.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡso6c9H4B5k

Rose looked at him calmly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlswhMs7D0h

“Luna… and Kiz.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV2qo6HcFp

In the next moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZTwpYig7r

Khaled’s expression completely changed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE839KZwl7O

The air around him grew heavier.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3eQMXxK27

“You knew my parents?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsefHWtS5ZZ

Rose laughed softly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFwGxo1W20

“We knew each other very well.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfNTFNNOku

The freezing wind slowly moved around her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZHWamb7cN

“We were all students of Master Saif.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCtRpthlbV

Then she looked directly at the old man.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8huDs2z5V

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNrZbdGxVs

Saif’s expression hardened.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO2eOR0C5y

“You were never weak.”

“You were simply greedy.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVArn9LzYRI

The smile on Rose’s face slowly faded.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aGCI8HPBf

Then she spoke in a calm voice:

“Greedy?”

“No…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMgUBG2ZrE

She slowly raised her hand.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMsb2lPe2M

Crystals of ice began forming around her fingers.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilrv3Fahc4

“I simply refused to remain weak.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsNucDsRVA

In a single moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOq2YqSc70

Ice exploded around her.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTpkeJEz4W

The sound of freezing echoed throughout the forest.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfGVqcS3VO

Even the ground beneath them rapidly turned white with frost.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2TilDojtb

“Luna and Kiz died because they were weak.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEMMfy2odM

She said it while staring directly at Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFrr1NTkG6

“As for me…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbBQTNMgLQ

A cold smile appeared on her face.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCnDjEtApR

“The Ice King granted me power.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaeCHlvUs9

Khaled tightened his grip on his sword.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNDYozd4k0

A weak shadow aura slowly moved beneath his feet.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa30DJ2tlV5

But it was unstable.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGObyOasZEV

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5cyA6t37V

He could barely use the aura now…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Hg2lN0yWx

And was relying mostly on swordsmanship alone.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKSOqTLGsZ

“Do not mention them again.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRxExOh3kI

Rose’s smile widened slightly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XQ9F1BfBJ

“And what will you do?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5EcKMfSra

In the next moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh6HWjptyy

Khaled rushed forward instantly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6LrBVc0sH

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS5SH7DV2E

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIf0tVKLhL

But suddenly—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoS2ifuZvH

Another blade blocked his strike.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrahYXXJo4K

Fiery sparks exploded into the air.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvjZAUrBLP

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaPWaG4RST

“…Abdulrahman?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX7mf2VjvQ

Abdulrahman stood directly in front of Rose.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ujmTMaDd2

His eyes were empty.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClUbPeSORz

Without emotion.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2nTxOUVJN

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSkyWPjXDg

“Move out of the way!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWs1YFgpbj

Khaled shouted angrily.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB15ur9sx2

But Abdulrahman immediately attacked him.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI87eSwla63

A fast strike forced Khaled backward.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhNM1P6jIm

The two swords collided violently.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZIKXSQDS5

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqBZs3v6Cu

But Khaled was not fighting seriously.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQKzQ6HZgn

He kept retreating.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7r683BNx78

Trying to understand what was happening.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebNz3wEkjw

“He’s under her control!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiH418sYyGg

Saif shouted.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BYZb5tNS7

Then he quickly raised his staff.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8YsYnxwG1

Glowing blue symbols appeared around Abdulrahman.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTi5ixYfIk

But Rose smiled calmly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaknkPDf0v

“That won’t work.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELRL16tdJ8

She slowly lifted one finger.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVY8uXtZOP

Suddenly—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct3m0pOzGQ

Abdulrahman’s eyes changed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADlcVywOcH

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP5rAeVisk

Then the flames around his body erupted even more violently.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHxxobaPjH

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiBkrBo8Y1

Rose said proudly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGbmK0BG8i

“Complete control over the mind.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CnEIxAdPc

Abdulrahman suddenly disappeared from sight.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLaXhggCB4

In the next instant—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmQj8hu7ly

He appeared directly behind Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooBmtyKqD2

A massive wave of fire exploded toward him.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxvFeWDZ9p

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43obmlQyTB

The impact violently pushed him across the ground.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPU1PauqAQ

The earth cracked beneath his feet.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSx8ttkYh0

“Khaled!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHaQEWcyIq

he shouted desperately.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BngaxmMFR

“Wake up!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwZv4xm4XP

But nothing changed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53TeyhRMDW

Abdulrahman stood silently.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULohrGKuAk

Then slowly raised his sword again.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqM3Sz7IIFH

At that moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeLLZsPEE2

Saif finally intervened.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD92C8IPVuE

A powerful strike from his staff stopped Abdulrahman briefly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmf9Zi4NIeX

Glowing spells surrounded his body.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64CuifZenj

“Wake up, boy!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyxMYfj7gU

the old master shouted.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1W5sBHq1P9

Abdulrahman’s body trembled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t4a9GNSzL

The flames around him became unstable.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqRnE2G7Ey

And for one brief moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHkJLMFtCf

His eyes returned to normal.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndjPvSwbhm

“K… Khaled…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKA5q9lAGxm

But before he could continue—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz409XW7y5

Rose smiled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9qghhCMxm

This time, her smile felt terrifying.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIA4v4VUvT

Then she slowly closed her hand.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekL8y2wk04

Suddenly—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iyOG8CFMK

Abdulrahman froze.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSnUIrF8cC

Then raised his head once more.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWkuvcIrIq

And the terrifying emptiness returned to his eyes.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJwyZmUwfJ

Rose let out a quiet sigh.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlIf2kKwGq

“I entered his mind myself.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXMkZQy6T5

Then she looked at Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBb5ZAjgdvx

“And there…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELbtAdlsN5

Her smile widened.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBr5aWywVA

“I found a chained monster named Zero.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SU4cqB5f3

Khaled’s expression instantly changed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mK7Mu06T8

“What?”

“We made a deal.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiF3r4Utfy

She said it as if it were nothing.

“He allows me to control Abdulrahman…”

“And in return…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfVRmsGx7x

Her smile briefly froze.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlNlV5mK1T

“I free him.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsv6HWnI3N

The flames around Abdulrahman suddenly exploded.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUHpeHUXAs

But this time—

They were unstable.

Chaotic.

Violent.

Terrifying.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKItuDMwl5

Even Saif felt the danger.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZCCHATFcD

“Rose…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fFoHfafyL

His voice became heavier.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxTdafwJQ5

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVoviULitB

But she laughed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHVwdEKQzk

“No…”

“I understand perfectly.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDXsxpx5vp

Then she slowly raised her hand toward Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvOUjJWtlL

“After I control all of you…”

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

“And then…”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75b4U81G38

She closed her eyes with a cold smile.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxhiDKVwal

“The king will be very pleased.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXTAl2DGrt

Khaled rushed forward again.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8YvBLMXdg

But Abdulrahman instantly blocked his path.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2nvzxDoZM

Fast strikes.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMxbyjfBUW

Fire and shadow clashing repeatedly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN382bhfhp4

Explosions echoed through the forest.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1Fh9zGdGV

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rM0MqwDHL

But the real problem…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tY9ZFkuqH

Was that Khaled did not want to hurt his friend.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPg7de48Lq

And it showed clearly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3axvBNUbU

Every strike from him carried hesitation.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoeYS7ZNGM

Restraint.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoH1rihyUCc

Which slowly allowed Abdulrahman to overpower him.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gtSPZnuG8

“Master!”

Khaled shouted.

“Help me!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1B1kngK8R

But…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz67J1dFXkL

No response came.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQNS7bCapJ

Khaled’s eyes widened in shock.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkVIxsN6Pq

He quickly turned—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG91SWuAo1

Only to find Saif standing motionless.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGkZQrV646

His eyes…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazTH9SBprH

Completely empty.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WgKF2UHZg

Rose smiled calmly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa0i78mVLT

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yb8OI91sh

In the next moment—

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckJYATf4ch

Saif began walking toward Khaled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGNZG6Cl6p

Slowly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEAUzDPVwk

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDi22BbP01D

And now…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiTiZDG8WE

He stood facing his master… and his closest friend…

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNRWUdmh7g

Both trying to kill him.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF24y9KBnFV

Khaled slowly took a step back.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1zgOAuNkX

His breath grew heavy.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQU1sLddz0R

Not from fear…

But from pressure.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhQxmevlCH

The pressure of battle.

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSFl6wYRQP

He gripped his sword even tighter.

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhtrJB8OVp

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

Empty eyes.

Without a hint of hesitation.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW5qSXzjkK

And between them…

Rose watched the scene with a cold smile.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NvE1XRZcx

“What’s wrong, Khaled?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68vadjuO1F

She said quietly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAteURx5Q6

“Aren’t you going to fight?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTXFWVfi0c

The first strike came.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFJ9TWylqf

Saif appeared before him faster than he had anticipated.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBkYU8P6Jz

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZUYkaoi4H

A loud crash echoed through the forest.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6WcpnQ3x4

Khaled felt his arm shake from the impact.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzN67rDecx

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF967a7DZrY

Abdulrahman.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNKXhrPaiB

A swift horizontal strike forced him to duck instantly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYr9jJlf7K

The fire passed directly over his head.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoFJZaq8Kb

Its heat was enough to scorch some of his hair.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0sGsuIxF3

Khaled jumped back quickly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF01ZU2p7Fu

Then he looked at them in shock.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcH9Ofc1s0

“They just won’t stop…” Rose smiled.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoipTloiHNS

“Because I’ve taken away their hesitation.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZab26uKmMv

Then she slowly raised a finger.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu1TdegZoR

“But you…” Her smile widened slightly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpJADaUfdM

“You’re still too faint-hearted.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaTQT95rh8

The next moment—

They attacked him together.

Saif from the front.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KFuT2oExy

And Abdul Rahman from the side.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3g2GY7BlNb

The staff and the fiery sword struck Khaled almost simultaneously.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTei2PINHsZ

He tried to block both blows—

but he failed.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWhRMo65Kn

Saif’s strike propelled him forward.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvHLOzwxXt

The next moment, fire erupted on his shoulder.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDT3k3OvE0a

He stumbled backward violently, crashing into a tree trunk.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQQjGbmHwB

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvItuCBoJHB

Khaled groaned with difficulty.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8d2JTUlLE

Then he slowly raised his head.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aqXWxUIb9

Rose was approaching.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM907bMb52

Calm.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk0WhTew3l

Confident.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWjQ3A2D1y

“See?”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfsKKl44Xu

The icy aura around her intensified.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCIbyzhoDE

“You’re not like your parents.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9Kfoyps09

“They were ready to sacrifice everything.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0sXzDoRam

Then she looked at Abdul Rahman.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kWmMNHYgg

“But you…”

She pointed at Khalid.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrToYKC4dk1

“You can’t even hit your own friend.”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQvlQjRAS2

Khalid clenched his fist tightly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbidVxRC4C8

Her words struck him.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y5UqT2XyS

And that was exactly what she wanted.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKFddBNCLW

Suddenly—

Abdul Rahman reappeared.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34igGMGPMM

A bullet shot straight to his face.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4ZqWVWZ7L

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlU3GNUoA1

Fire erupted around them.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7K9V4KeG2

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ptfqfXivF

Abdul Rahman moved closer.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XQjqdObJk

Then he whispered, his voice faint and broken:

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vJZ7DNz4J

“…Run…”

Khalid’s eyes widened.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkUj9F5gxb

“Abdul Rahman?!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3bVODX4Gy

But his eyes immediately went blank again.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYnyZ5sama

Then he shoved Khalid violently.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsgzJtZxqY

Khalid flew several meters above the ground before tumbling heavily.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mq7V9qXHO

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3SNwcONjL

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

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaoQPM0AUi

“Damn it…” He looked toward the pendant.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cqcrz2jk5

Then he closed his hand over it.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgQTgzDGaP

“Shadow…”

No response.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1slQUNbwQ

“You bastard, help me!”

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JXeg1QkGs

The darkness inside the pendant remained silent.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqveBD4wC8

Rose approached slowly.

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNe3DCnTqv

Prepare for destruction...

77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofU4HD4IrU

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

To be continued...

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

So what will Khalid do in this predicament? How will he survive? And will Shadow intervene to solve this dilemma? We will find out in the third part of chapter five.77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv5vFx4s4u
