Chapter 64 - The Ark Of Goodbyes (1/2)

”A lady should not be throwing her toys around,” said Minwoo, keeping his blade.

”Why can't you guys just talk it out?!” shouted Jeanette.

”He started it first,” said Minwoo, nonchalantly.

”Enough. I contacted Marquess Dalles to train with him since he has no ties with the Arks. Or so I thought,” explained Mavislin, getting up.

”It's true that I've no association with the Arks. Nor I have any intention to join. I simply like your way of fighting, darling,” replied the Marquess.

”So you aren't involved in the whole Umbra incident?” asked Metria.

”Of course. After all, I'm the Ruler of the underworld. The Umbras have been wreaking havoc and the entire world has been thrown into disarray. I was hoping that Mav would help me out...”

Minwoo fell silent as he touched the Valkyrie's wing. Her flinch indicated that her wound was much serious than predicted.

”Darling, who hurt your wing?” asked Minwoo, seeing her limp wing.

The silence gave Minwoo enough information to launch another attack on the Time Mage. Again, Jeanette stood in the way of the dueling gentleman.

”We've got bigger issues at hand. How about you two just stop fighting and shut it,” said Jeanette, through gritted teeth.

The duo gave another glare towards the French Maiden as they both retracted the weapons. Mavislin could finally calm down as she stood up, with the help of French Maiden.

”We've stayed here for quite some time. Dawn is breaking, don't you think it's time to part ways?” asked Mavislin, looking at the orange disc.

”Part ways?” asked Raiyen, looking at Mavislin in disbelief.

”Yea. You too, Angry Man. It's better than being huddled in a group. The Umbras have no hate against us Valkyries, so I've got no need to fight them. Originally, I'm supposed to wait for Minwoo to train with him. But you lot came crashing. I don't fancy being disturbed,” explained Mavislin.

”In other words, you are chasing us out?” asked Metria.

”No, I'm shooing you back to where you came from.”

”That's the same!” yelled Metria.

This earned the princess a direct attack from the Valkyrie herself, as she whipped out her iconic Fire Feather Whip. The attack was enough to send the princess flying, despite using her Water spells as a defense.

”Globe!” yelled Metria, in an attempt to wrap herself in a ball of water.
