219 Ch. 219 Picnic (1/2)
Lionel guessed that it was the same as when the incident in the north. He suspected Niken was currently time-traveling to the past, so they could not trace nor track her whereabouts.
It's just that, since the incident Niken was injured in the past, Lionel could not stop worrying about the girl.
What if this time Niken was severely injured and couldn't return safely? What if this time Niken died in the past without no one know?
Lionel was anxious about Niken, but Kazuto's current condition was much more worrying.
For the past few days, Kazuto was screaming in pain until he almost lost control and turned into a beast. Could not see his inamorata's face for a long time took a toll on him. Luckily Hokuto and Izzy were there to help to calm Kazuto.
For an Elementalist knight who had met his inamorata, he would be stuck with uncomfortable feelings and pain in his chest if he didn't see his inamorata's face for up to a month.
However, it had only been two weeks, but Kazuto was already feeling the pain as if his inamorata was in danger.
Could it be something happen to Niken?
If Niken died, it was the same as giving the death penalty to Kazuto. The black knight only had two choices to face the death of his inamorata. Either he would become an evil knight like the white knight, or he would become a zombie waiting for his death.
Lionel entered Kazuto's room, where Izzy tried to manipulate Kazuto's mind to make the black knight fall asleep.
Even though it seemed that Kazuto's pair of eyes were closed, they all knew that Kazuto wasn't sleeping at all. Right now, his movements were restrained, and Kazuto couldn't control his body because Izzy was forcing his muscles to freeze and restricting his movements.
”Will he be all right?”
”For now. But, he won't last long if Niken doesn't come back soon. ”
”This is so weird.” opined Hokuto. ”The energy flow in his body is unstable.”
”You feel it too?” Izzy did not think that Hokuto also felt something strange about the flow of energy in Kazuto's body. ”I thought it's only my imagination.”
”Lionel, do you know what this means?”
”…” Lionel didn't immediately give an answer, but his expression became tense and dark. ”Either Niken is in danger, or someone is trying to get rid of the black knight's mark.”
Izzy gasped in shock when she heard this. ”We can't let that happen. If the mark of the inamorata is forcibly removed, Kazuto will lose half of his strength.”
”Not only that, his lifespan will decrease every time he uses his sword.”
”We have to find Niken.”
It's just, what power does he have? If Niken was currently in a different era, how will they find Niken this year?
The truth was, Niken was not in a different year than them. Niken was lying in a crystal coffin and was forced to sleep. To be precise, she was dreaming while someone was trying to brainwash her.
Not only brainwashing, but this person was also trying to erase the black knight's inamorata mark on Niken's neck.
It's just that this person was underestimating Niken's will power.
