Ark: The Cycle of Light and Darkness

The sudden sound and figure surprised both W and Hedley.

Two fingers clamped Hedley's fallen sword, and one finger held up W's thumb, which was about to press the switch.

The black-haired Sakaz woman is slender, weak, and so beautiful that she seems not to belong to this battlefield. But she just smiled faintly and stretched out her hand, making the two combatants unable to even move.

Of course, it is not just the fingers that resist the weapons of both sides, but the power that is constantly overflowing unconsciously from the whole body, which is above the devil, and even above the"gods" recognized by ordinary people.

There is no need to deliberately control it. As long as the girl does not consciously suppress it, this powerful pressure will turn into a huge burden, and the people around her will be completely unable to move.

"Gui'an, W... And, long time no see, Hedley."

The black-haired Sakaz girl smiled and greeted both parties with a relaxed expression that was completely inconsistent with the atmosphere of the battlefield. She even enjoyed the two's surprise at her appearance.

"Your Mightiness……"

Hedley was about to say something, but the disruptor in front of him just put a finger on his lips and made a"shh" gesture.

Then he discovered to his horror that his ability to speak had been temporarily taken away.

This was not a violent Source Stone technique aimed at his own body, nor was it a spell that disabled the transmission of sound - the moment Hedley saw the girl's movements, he realized that he could not resist her will at all.

Perhaps the mind has not yet realized the whole story, but the body has already completed the request of this mysterious compatriot, as if following some kind of rules that must be followed.

It's not a request, let alone an order, it's a request, but I can't even think of resisting.

"As for W, I can answer your question just now."

Ignoring the continuously changing expressions on Hedley's face, the black-haired Sakaz girl looked to the other side. Seeing the surprise in the white-haired compatriot's eyes, she released her right hand that was holding her palm, and then gently He touched her head lightly.

It was as if he had done it dozens of times and hundreds of times.

"Levi isn't dead, or rather - he's just gone temporarily and will be back soon"

"……"

W was silent as his head was touched, but he couldn't help but show a comfortable expression. Then his eyes widened as he reacted, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes as he looked at the black-haired girl.

"You, who are you? What is your relationship with that man?"

(Why, you would use a method that only 'she' knows...)

The black-haired Sakaz girl narrowed her eyes when she heard W's words. She seemed to enjoy the question being asked by the former. She was puzzled and enjoying the answer. The moment I reveal myself

"As you can see, my name is Regulus Harvey, and I am... I am also the sword of the royal court, the sharp blade of Rhodes Island."

"——！"

For a moment, W and Hedley, who could not speak for the moment, all widened their eyes.

But before W could ask the next question, Levi shook her head at her, and then her beautiful eyes moved to a location not far away.

"We might as well put some words on the table and say them, if you want to hear them, that's fine... but I don't tolerate sneaking around."

Like the dark waning moon hanging in the sky and being dyed, the huge scythe emerged silently beside the black-haired Sakaz girl. Revi's eyes narrowed and she said lightly.

"Should you come out on your own, or should I chase you away - the rat hiding in the dark?"

————Dividing line————

Beads of sweat were already forming on the tip of the Pardoner's nose.

As early as the moment the woman who looked very similar to Regulus Harvey appeared, he had already concluded that even if the person in front of him was not the"blade" himself, she was definitely the same as that person.

Just the chill that penetrated his body like bone marrow made him feel fear... It was an existence that he could never match. If the other party wanted to kill him, it would probably be no more difficult than crushing a bed bug.

So he chose to continue hiding and wait and see.

The conflict between Hedley and W is actually not within the scope of his concern. The fight between the small mercenaries is really not worth mentioning. It is like a pebble thrown into the vast ocean. The moment it causes ripples, it will be destroyed by waves. Obliterated by huge waves.

He wanted to know more through this, at least to assess how exaggerated the strength of the woman in front of him was. After all, not to mention Regulus Harvey, whose body had not yet been found, if the"female blade" in front of him was also It is also full of hostility, and it is a devastating change for his and even the regent's plans.

He has not forgotten the experience of almost being killed during Operation Shattered Blade, nor has he forgotten how many calculations the Regent's side had to make. Almost all the elites came out to be able to kill or at least make the"Blade" lose its combat effectiveness.

——But now, it is obvious that I am too optimistic

"Revy was only gone temporarily and would be back soon."

This sentence made the Pardoner feel wary. He didn't think that an existence with that level of strength would deliberately deceive a small mercenary. Therefore, this was important information that he should pass back quickly.

Justified. When he was about to retreat cautiously, a woman named Levi suddenly glanced at his hiding place, and then a huge black sickle appeared out of thin air, and a mysterious and terrifying aura instantly locked onto his location.

"Do you come out on your own initiative, or do I drive you out - the mouse hiding in the dark?"
