Chapter 160 - The Ark Of Umbra Of Urnsfield (1/2)

Everything was alright, her Elemental Energy was back at full tank. In a while, she'll able to wake up fully. But her wings had sustained quite the damage from the battle.

”I wonder what she's dreaming about...” asked Ling, looking at the Valkyrie as if she was her sister.

”Probably about playing with Raiyen in her early days. She does tend to dream about the past quite often,” replied Z.

”That's cute.”

”It's not if it's about constantly biting Minwoo. When they first met, Minwoo kept touching her. At the time, Mav hated humans touching her. If they got too close, she'll bite. Even if she's happy.”

The Viscountess laughed as Z cracked a smile. Vernice, on the other hand, displayed another form of emotion apart from the two.

”What's wrong?” asked Ling.

”It doesn't add up. If the Congregation has been gone for so long, why is this place left untouched?” asked Vernice, looking at Z.

The Igor of the Arks sighed and looked at the Duchess.

”You humans live in houses built by the dead. Isn't that normal?”

”Yes. But after years of not occupying this area.”

Vernice then held up a bucket of ice and shook it slightly.

”How has the bucket of ice not melted?” asked the Duchess, with a concerned face.

Z and Ling looked at each other in fear. More importantly, the place had been deadlocked for over the years. How could someone prepare a bucket of ice from within?

”Looks like we've been had,” said a voice from the walls behind the Valkyrie.

Vernice drew out her pistol and started shooting at the Umbra, which harbored nothing.

”Don't waste your bullets! It won't harm it!” yelled Z as he grabbed the Duchess's pistol.

The Duchess lowered her pistol immediately. Z quickly snatched the sleeping girl away from the bed. This left the poor Valkyrie dazed and confused.
