Chapter 185 – Bitter Separation

Translator: Atlas / Editor: Regan

The moment she saw the black smoke whirling around her ankles, Leah’s thoughts froze. The faint, hallucinatory sound of chains that had haunted her for so long was suddenly loud and clear, jangling in her ears.

Cerdina was trying to bring her back to Estia.

She realized it instinctively and suddenly it felt as if everything was collapsing around her and she was falling into darkness, cold and deep. She couldn’t breathe. Her vision went black and she was clutched by such terror, she was falling…

“…Leah!”

Leah’s whole body trembled. Her lips moved, but she couldn’t scream. Her voice was gone.

“Leah!!!”

The sound of the voice calling her snapped her back. She was floating, enveloped in black smoke, as Morga and the other sorcerers surrounded her, shouting in Kurkan. The red velvet carpet had been moved and in its place was a magical pattern that must have been drawn beforehand.

The sea of white flowers had fallen and been trampled in the chaos, and Ishakan walked across the broken blooms, reaching out to her.

His hand went through her as if she were an illusion.

Others tried. No one could touch her.

Terrified, Leah stretched out to grab for Ishakan’s hand, clinging to him, but somehow he couldn’t grasp her. Somehow only Leah could hold onto him as the smoke coiled tighter around her. Somehow she knew that if she let go, she would be dragged to Estia. Her arms strained as if they might be torn off, but she clung to him with all her might.

“Ishakan! The blood…!” Morga shouted.

Unsheathing his dagger, Ishakan sliced his own arm. His blood gushed red and fell, absorbing into the glowing magic pattern on the ground.

The smoke around Leah receded.

One of the magicians standing at the corner of the pattern collapsed, vomiting blood.

“It’s not enough!” Morga screamed. His face was white. “It needs more, much more than I told you!”

He stopped, gagging as if he were nauseous, and covered his mouth with his hand. Blood spurted between his fingers and the Kurkan sorcerer wiped it away with the back of his hand.
