Chapter 102 - The Ark Of Shattering The Nightmare (1/2)

She swung an arm towards the figure, but the Umbra was quicker than expected. He dodged the attack with ease.

”It's pissing me off!” she yelled, shooting a glare at its direction.

The figure launched itself towards the angered Valkyrie. Mavislin could hardly dodge the attack, barely scraping by as she flung herself towards a wall. Her wings were starting to hurt from the excessive impact over the past few days.

The Umbra's blade glinting due to the moon's light. Not only his blade was tainted with the Dark Element, but his speed and physical ability were also further enhanced. She was finding it hard to stand her ground.

As a Valkyrie, it could spell death for Mavislin. The last time a being of Light went up against a being of Dark... Let's just say it did not end well for both sides. Earth may be in danger if she doesn't resolve this quickly.

”Or we could continue until one of us falls,” said the figure, sprinting towards her once more.

”Wake up! I know you can!” yelled Mavislin, deflecting the Umbra's constant assaults.

”You seem pretty confident about him being alive! I've already said, his soul had perished a long time ago!” shouted the Umbra, diving into the Valkyrie with his blade.

”I will choose...” murmured the Valkyrie as she braved the incoming blade with her bare hands.

The Umbra was taken aback as she grabbed the blade. He tried yanking it away, but the Valkyrie had other plans for the poor Shadow. By grabbing the blade and pulling, the sneaky Valkyrie gave it a massive headbutt. This caused the Umbra to stumble back.

”To refuse the illusion...”

Her heart once clouded with hatred and disgust for humans, opened when she met so many wonderful people. Sure, she'd still harbor hate from some. But she can't be conflicted now. She needed her mind to be clear.

”Damn you!” yelled the angered Umbra, slashing the Valkyrie's arm when she held them up.

She dug through her memories, one that can clear the mist. Minwoo's cheeky grin flashed by, Raiyen's goofy one came after. Now, she needed to do break out from those thoughts and focus on taking this Umbra down. She needed to channel those hate into power to defeat this thing.

”And shatter the nightmare!” yelled Mavislin.

As she shouted those words, the area around them was cleared from the eerie mist. Mavislin stood strong, in a glowing pillar of light. The Valkyrie sucked in a deep breath and braced herself. She concentrated and turned her pool of Elemental Energy into an aquatic blue.
