170 The Other Shadow (2/2)

ZOOOOOWWWHM!~

Elric's figure suddenly turned into a blur and the next moment the King realized, Elric was standing just in front of him, a chain made of blue scorhing fire materialized in his hands and the other end was tightly wrapped in the King's body.

”KHHH-!~”

Try as he may but the sheer power of the chain of fire was like an immovable rock pressing down on him. With each passing seconds, he felt like his entire existence was about to shatter from the immense pressure the chain brought.

”I am not gonna ask again. Where's my grandma's soul?” Elric asked with a cold tone.

However the King remained looking like an innocent duck and for some reason, Elric could feel that he was genuinely not aware of his grandma's issue.

AAAAACHK!~

Helpless, Elric could only resort to a soul memory scan. His hand suddenly grabbed the head of the tightly sealed King and the faint dark purple light that was the color of the latter's soul started to flicker intensely.

In Elric's perspective, the scenes of the King's activity for the past years started to play like a reversed movie but in ten times playback speed.

”This...”

Elric's control suddenly stopped at a certain moment. It revealed a different window of the event ten years ago.

”Stupid! F*cking Dragons and Guardians and Light b*tch!!” Katimo cursed as he hid beneath the shadows underneath a big rock not far from the feet of the rampaging Black Ancestral Dragon.

He had been waiting for the perfect timing to take over Elric's body but for some unexpected events, the Guardians had created a barrier that stopped the other Shadows he scattered from entering, thus he was unable to regain his full strength.

Not to mention, the King Dragons and the watchful gazes from the agent of the Realm of Light which happens to be currently hiding inside the old grandma's body standing in front of Elric's massive figure.

He had no other choice but to wait for a perfect chance to weaken the Dragon and possibly breath the living sh*t out of the hiding Light b*tch inside the old grandma's body.

But just when the massive Dragon was about to devour the old woman in front of it, Katimo saw a different Shadow figure suddenly popping out of existence.

The time suddenly slowed down.

He saw how the mysterious Shadow was strong enough to contend against the impressive Light warrior hiding inside the old grandma's body.

As much as Katimo wanted to help the Shadow, he realized that he could not afford to lose his cover at the moment. It was possible that their fight was just a bit. Not to mention, his current mission was kept a secret from the other Kings of the Dark Realm or they might just also go after Elric's body and could complicate the whole situation.

The fight of the Light warrior and the mysterious Shadow was too strong that the Astral realm seemed to shake from the impact of their battle.

Then for a moment, Katimo realized something. The more he watched the mysterious Shadow's movement, the cleared a clue started to appear in his mind.

Their fight was about to reach climax and Katimo finally identified the other Shadow's identity, who happens to have failed in taking over the old grandma's body.

”The Emperors Envoy!?” Katimo gaped in shock.

Why is the Emperor's envoy here? And why are they fighting over a mere old woman's body and soul?

It was only a glimpse but Katimo saw it clearly, a small marble looking sphere was seen to be clutched tightly in the hands of the Emperor's Envoy.

It contained the real soul of the old grandma!

For some reason, the Envoy seems to be in a hurry, trying to leave the place as fast as possible.

”hahaha!”

Watching one of his most respected figures leaving the area like a scared baboon, he could not help but sneer in mockery.

Katimo was wondering why one of the most feared Shadow Envoy was running away as if a dog escaping a dog catcher until it felt the unbearable presence of the heaven crashing down.

”Sh*t! No wonder why, It's the God Reckoning Tribulation!”
