Chapter 347 - The Ark Of Moving The Girls Out (1/2)
”After all, you were part of the Five Kings of the Underworld. Your hands have been soiled as much as her. There isn't any angel here. All I see are humans trying to find the higher moral ground but you won't find any. Not when the parties have both killed in their past.”
”Frankly speaking, I'm very patient with the two of you because I am focusing my anger on the final boss of this mission. But I need to be firm on this for you two because you are my juniors now. Rina, don't feel too bad about the past. Focus on your present and future now.”
”Remember, every Saint has a past and every sinner has a future. Don't let the demons of your past claim the new days of your future. But, don't make the same mistake twice. Don't sacrifice any life to save others. Do your best to use your power to help others instead of using lives.”
”If it gives you any comfort, I wouldn't have known what to do either. I would've made the same mistake as you and I would still be as angry as Bryan. There's no good or bad here. You both were right and wrong in your way.”
Looking at Rina washing off the blood and trying to coo the newborn was conflicting for the Valkyrie to look at. Why was she suddenly so trusting of this Mage? Bryan was right, it could have been a trap. But her actions, her words, and her tears seemed so real.
The way she bathed the child and shushed her down... Reminded the Valkyrie of her childhood back on Valokia. But before she could continue any further, a thunderous squawk can be heard. The ground shook as Mavislin gave another grin.
”Looks like Ysabeau mobilized Fluffy to help out. I am quite impressed though, never expect her to call Fluffy to such a place,” said Mavislin as she established herself.
”Fluffy? That's the creature's name for that racket?!” asked RIna.
”Yep. It's a Rukh, the largest bird on Earth. The feathers are quite fluffy, thus the name,” explained Mavislin.
”And one hell of a transport ride,” murmured Bryan, remembering how they came here from the Old Chapel.
”You took it better than Raiyen, that's saying quite a lot.”
”Anyways, we've noted what we can in this room. I want to get the girls out now. But I need both of your help,” instructed Mavislin, looking at Bryan and RIna.
