Chapter 219 - 175 : Targeted (1/2)

As he was lost in his thoughts, a familiar voice entered Arthur's ears.

”Kid, you should have been more prepared, I have warned you about them.”

It was none other than Zodiak's voice, which somehow was heard inside his mind, Arthur kind of expected this since the dark talisman never stopped throbbing intensely near his Dantian and the Dark Magic being something Zodiak created, it's no wonder he would show up sooner or later.

'You just warned me, you didn't specify what it was.'

A sighing could be heard from the other party, it seemed that he didn't have high hopes for Arthur to overcome whatever was coming.

”I can teleport you out of this world but this would expand my last bit of Energy, after that, you're on your own.”

In response to that, Arthur shook his head in rejection and retorted

'There is no need, I can deal with it. Furthermore, if I run from it now than I'll meet later and at that time, there will be no chance of running away, it's better to get rid of it now than wait for later.'

Arthur resolutely decided to face the danger, always being protected by Zodiak or teleporting away will lead to disasters or unfortunate separations just like what happened in the Underworld. It was due to his weakness that they ran away from the Lich King and the rest. If he was strong enough then they would have been able to lead a normal life without fearing those Gods, which is why Arthur was against the idea of running with his tail between his legs, he had confidence in his arsenal and was sure that escaping is a difficult yet doable thing.

Zodiak's voice wasn't heard again, he accepted Arthur's decision and went back to his dormant state. The next voice to enter his ears was the Earth Spirit's

”Demon, it seems that some powerful people are coming for you, why don't you give me that Dimensional stone and I can help you deal with them.”

Unfortunately for the Knight, he was met with the same answer, leaving him distressed since Arthur's death wouldn't lead to his but would still gravely weaken him, which isn't a favorable thing right now.

Only a few seconds after Swain left, four white beams of light came from the North bringing with them a suffocating pressure that even affected Arthur. In an instant, they were floating above him, all focusing their attention on him and the dark flames surrounding him.

They only needed one look to confirm that he is their target, however, one of the four, who was a woman in her thirties, looked South and said

”There's someone who escaped, should I catch him?”

An old man wearing a pure white robe and holding a scepter shook his head and calmly said

”No need, this one is our target, the rest does not matter.”

The four strangers were all wearing white robes while each was holding a weapon. There were two women, one old man and a young man who appeared to be in his teenage years. They looked cautiously at Arthur, putting more focus on the Dark Magic being unleashed from him.
