Chapter 890 - Wash the Sin with Blood (1/2)
”That's right. This girl was once Jenny. Right now, It's just that the current conscience that resides within her body is not,” said Jiang Fei. He did not know how to properly explain how he managed to get Ariel into Jenny's body.
”I don't care whether she is Jenny or Phoenix. I just want to know where is Jenny right now,” said Shroder. His voice was breaking. He did not care about who or what resides in his sister's body. All he wanted was to meet his sister!
”She's… gone.”
Jiang Fei averted his gaze away from him. When Shroder finally calmed down, Jiang Fei proceeded to explain what Jenny had told him and how she wanted to Shroder to live. He had also explained about how Phoenix had given the body to him in order to revive Ariel.
”She… She still cares for me… even when she was dying…”
Shroder eyes locked on Ariel, tears rolling down like a waterfall.
”She did. Even though I had thought her conscience was lost, she managed to regain her memory and love for you. You have to forgive her for since when she was experimented upon, her new alter-ego was hell-bent on having her revenge on those who had made her suffer.”
Shroder was only hearing words coming out of Jiang Fei's mouth. He was not truly listening since he was fully focused on Ariel. He had only just accepted the fact that Jenny was gone. Before this day, he never gave up looking for his sister. Besides looking into Japan, he did not fell short of searching throughout the world. But alas, the one man that had saved his life had to deliver the depressing news about his sister's death.
Shroder walked over to Ariel and gently stroked her hair.
”Live a full life. For my sister's sake.”
Even though he knew that Jenny was not in there, there was still a powerful feeling of familiarity.
”I will. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you and your sister,” said Ariel.
”Shroder, this is not a place for you to dwell in your feelings. You need to leave. With your current strength, you can easily leave the battlefield without being killed. I cannot fulfill my promise to Jenny if you insist on staying and fight!”
”My sister is gone, Jiang. There's no need for you to continue this. I know that you care and worry for me but I am still a member of the Mutant Brotherhood. At the very least, allow me to fight to my last breath on the battlefield!”
”If you go, I'll go!” cried Shroder's girlfriend. She had only just arrived at where they were and did not realize Jiang Fei was around. She had only seen Shroder chasing after a martial artist and decided to come along.
”Sigh… what an emotional bunch. Ariel, please shackle them for me,” said Jiang Fei mentally.
”Very well,” Ariel replied and proceeded to use her powers to hold them in suspended animation.
Before Shroder and his girlfriend realized what was going on, Jiang Fei patted Shroder on his arms.
”I'm truly sorry for this. You would have to find it in your heart to forgive me,” said Jiang Fei. He then nodded at Ariel.
In a blink of an eye, Ariel created a rift in space and sent them to the edge of Japan, far away from the battlefield. Even if they tried their best to get back, the battle would have been over.
”Let's go back,” Jiang Fei said with a heavy heart.
