Chapter 151 - The Ark Of New Intrusion (1/2)

”If only I had known, I would've saved you earlier. I'm so, so sorry, Minwoo...” said Mavislin, her entire body shaking.

She then clenched at her heart. It was starting hurt, badly. She tried to regulate her breathing but it was to no avail as the pain was unbearable.

”Shouldn't that Valkyrie be used to death?” asked Duchess Midford, looking at the sobbing mess.

”How can anyone be used to killing their family member?” asked Earl Yan, lighting a cigarette.

”Well, that's just mean that she's rather weak. Never expected that from a powerful being like a Valkyrie,” stated the Duchess, shrugging off the poor girl's pain.

”Well, right in the middle of the Umbra incident, eh? This brings back memories,” murmured the Time Mage as he stepped foot into the area.

He spun around, trying to get a sense of which Time he was at. It reeked of death. And the painful wails of a Valkyrie. Dawn was breaking.

”If I hadn't known better, I would've thought that I was back home,” he said, with a painful smile.

He shook his head. Those were memories that were not worth remembering. He thought to find Mavislin but the situation wanted him to not interfere. The Valkyrie needed to know that not all victories include the winner smiling.

He then caught a glimpse of a brightened up room. It was located on the top of a building. Using Glitch, the Mage could easily reach right up to the window.

”Don't be too quick to assume,” warned Earl Yan.

”Earl's got a point. People cry, not because they're weak. It's because they've been strong for too long,” boomed a voice on the balcony.

The group spun around, readying themselves for another battle. But instead of finding an enemy, they found a very cheeky Time Mage. The boy glitched through the room, landing just beside the two women.

”Hello, ladies,” he said, bowing down to them.

He then frowned the Viscountess. But gave a cheeky grin to Duchess Midford. She turned away in disgust.

”What do you want, Time Boy?” asked Earl Yan, glaring at Raiyen.

”Hmm... The few Kings of the underworld. Oh, looks like the Marquess has fallen and the Baron isn't here,” commented the Time Mage, as he scanned around.

”Who the hell you?!” screeched the Duchess, whipping out a bow and arrow.

”Let's just say that I'm a Time Mage. Back from a certain ordeal, came to fix another problem,” explained the cheeky boy, glitching out of the room once more.

”The Marquess might be down for the count, bringing along the alpha of the Umbras and one member. But, it's still no time to celebrate. We've got bigger issues to handle.”

”And if I were you, I would be careful with the Viscountess,” warned Raiyen, standing at the balcony once more.
