Will you be okay?"
Asked Oliver, worried.
"Yeah, Go and take the kids away from here and heal them."
Answered Arken confidently. He was the Sword Saint, a legend.
But Oliver knew who was approaching. The one that had visited was the one that Injured Arken badly before.
"...fine."
However, Oliver decided to believe in his best friend. He took Alan, Alex, and Lucas away and returned to the cave they were residing in.
Now, Arken was left alone. He calmly waited for the 'visitor' to Show herself.
Speak of the Devil and he will come.
The surroundings twisted and turned in front of Arken.
"I was waiting for the sage to disappear."
A sweet and mellow voice resounded. Arken's brows furrowed.
2 individuals stepped out from the distortion in the Air.
A tall woman with red hair and a seductive appearance, and the other was wearing a hood that covered her entire body.
The tall woman with red hair was beautiful. Her red hair was reminiscent of river blood, her scarlet eyes perfected the combo of Blood-red. She had a face so perfect that even women would fawn over her. A curvaceous figure which was especially alluring because she was scantily dressed.
This woman may have been the pinnacle of crazy beauty…If only she did not have the scar that run up her chin to her left eye, parting her lips and some of her nose as well. It seemed to be a sword wound.
"Long time no see, Sword Saint."
She greeted Arken politely. The other hooded figure also bowed down to show respect.
"Long time no see."
Arken returned the greeting.
"I had never thought you would come back to the Demonic Continent after what happened."
The woman mocked. Arken simply smiled back.
"Well, I was dying to see that face of yours."
The woman's face froze the moment she heard that.
"Well, I guess it is to be expected. I did start first."
She laughed, caressing her scar.
Arken was the one who gave her that scar.
"Even now, I still feel jolts of electricity whenever I touch it. You left this young lady with quite a scar."
"Young? Aren't you approaching your 60s now?"
"Careful with a woman's age."
Replied the Woman Angrily.
Her demonic energy roared. Her companion struggled a bit but Arken remained Unfazed.
And then in a single second. He released his energy and quietened the bitch down.
"Still as monstrous as ever."
She commented. Suppressing her energy.
"Who are the children?"
She asked.
Arken remained quiet, however. There was no reason to tell her anything. She probably knew everything and just wanted to annoy him.
"Oh come on Sword Saint. Alan Peccator, Lucas Hiddleston, and Alexander Wright. I wonder what they are doing with you?"
She showed a malicious smile as she listed their names. Arken was correct. This woman already knew everything. Almost Everything.
"The Rising Star of the World. The one who was responsible for stopping our plans in Aror."
"The Young, forgotten son of the Hiddleston family. And of course the bastard of the Wright family."
"Are they yo-"
The woman was interrupted by Arken releasing his aura and pressuring her. She knew she crossed a limit here.
She smiled deviously. Her smile reached her ears almost and her teeth were showing. She, with no fear whatsoever, got in front of Arken face.
"To think you would bring your disciple here…Brave aren't you?"
Right in front of the Sword Saint, with no fear.
The woman was daring. Arken simply smiled back.
"Yes, A lot braver than a bitch who doesn't dare fight her own battles."
"Kekeke…"
The woman laughed eerily. And went back.
"What does the Obelisk want?"
Arken asked, releasing his pressure.
"Oh, I'm just here to offer a deal."
Morgana Cardevaros, The Leader of the Obelisk and also known as the Witch of Chimera. She had gained such a title due to her Unique Skill.
[Biokinesis]
The skill was simply terrifying.
If it wasn't limited by rank or Mana, she would've dominated Earth already.
It was the fearsome ability to control all Biological Organisms down to a Genetical level.
It was the one ability that trumped Arken's Ultra instinct state and what also dealt him a serious injury that still hurt.
She had messed with his genes when she Ambushed him together with the other duke-rank demons. That ambush was the reason Arken went into hiding.
The woman changed her playful demeanor into something serious.
"Present it."
Her comrade took out an intricate box and opened it up.
Arken stared at the item inside in confusion.
