Lord Shadow

Chapter 1702: Old Nemesis

Azief simple gesture seems to trigger the phenomena of heaven and earth

Life force gathers all around the area. Flowers blooms in the middle of the cold hard ground. Trees rises up from the cold ground

The snow on top of the ground was pushed away by a gust of wind that comes out of nowhere. Life blooms and all the injuries that plagues Katarina body is healed.

Even the hidden ones is healed almost immediately, patched by this enormous life force that changes the terrain of this clearing.

Right now, entire clearing is now like a different biome than the rest of the mountain. Below the mountain all is full of snow, the winds are harsh like it could cut your skin

But on this peak, on this clearing, the winds are gentle, there is trees, there is flowers, there is plants, the scent of flowers and the scent of trees fills the area.

If Azief persisted even longer, the entire peak would turns into a forested green area.

These tree is the one that emanated a kind of pressure that forces the wind to be repelled. The snows was also pushed toward other areas and would not fall in this area.

Azief did not intend to rectify this area.

Sooner or later, this small patch of greens would be overwhelmed by the natural weather of this area.

But considering Azief energy and the life force that he had conjured, for the area to return to normal, it would take five hundred years.

That is how potent the life force that Azief had conjured up. And that is the level of an Essence Creation realm.

One small move could create such a lasting effect. Azief look at Katarina and he nodded in satisfaction.

Then he looks behind him, looking upwards and shakes his head.

There is still tens of thousands of sword floating in the air, each sword is ready to kill, ready to show off its edge

It is a pity that the battle has already ended. ”I thought that if I came here I would be able to see you use this kind of sword technique. It seems Rosulka escaped before you could use it”

Katarina nodded ”She has always been slippery. Her strength had improved and her use of her abilities has also improved”

Katarina said all of these words, but there is no trace of hatred or anger in her tone. There is even a prideful tone in her voice

Azief never understand Katarina and Rosulka relationship. But he did send some people to research and investigate Rosulka. Most of her records are before the Fall and it is hard to find it

But Sasha intelligence agency is quite efficient in their work so Azief still got some information about Rosulka.

And when he found out about her, he really doesnʼt know what to think about this woman

She is very young when the Fall happens. And even now, after almost a decade she is still only in her twenties. But it is this young woman that send shivers to many people even in the Crime Alliance and the other dark forces in the criminal underworld.

Rosulka father is a serial killer in Russia and he is known as the Limb Butcher.

Judging by the name, his trait in killing people is leaving limbs of his victims.

From the reports it is said that Rosulka saw all the killings with her own eyes. In other words, her father brought her as he saw and cut those poor victims into pieces while her daughter watches him doing his work

This is a report that one of his agents got from some officers in Oblast.

After that, the information is after the Fall. It is deduced that she might have killed her own father.

During the White Explosion, she was teleported into the Flame Region.

Azief has seen many people. And so, he rarely judges people by their parents. Some people broke from the mould that their parents mould them to be.

Some surpasses them.

But unfortunately, in Rosulka case, she seems to be following the footsteps of her father.

She might not cut limbs and leaving it lying around all the place but she clearly has her father penchant for violence

Azief is not comfortable in letting such a child living in this world. Azief before the Fall believe that a child should not be tried or treated like an adult

That was because he lives in the comfort of his home, never to cross with these people. But then the Fall happens and he had seen evil in many forms. Just because you are young, does not mean you are excused.

When a crazy dog started biting people everywhere, you donʼt coddle it and hope it would change.

You put it down. Because that is the best thing for everyone.

For that dog and for the people in the neighbourhood.

There are kids that have great mind but a very extreme propensity for violence.

Some of them are moulded that way. Some of them are influenced by their parents or by external factors.

And some of them are born that way.

But everyone make a choice.

They make a choice to snuff out people life

Rosulka.....did she become like that because of her father?

Or has she always been like that?

Either way, Azief didnʼt like it.

Katarina could be ruthless but there is still compassion in her heart. Yes, her compassion is very limited. She has her likes and dislike and she is very clear about it.

She is honest to her feelings and this honesty is reflected in her actions

But Rosulka is the kind of woman who would do anything it takes to achieve her objective.

And there is nothing more terrifying and more troublesome enemies to fight than an enemies that have no lines nor boundaries. ”This Rosulka hurt my woman and I could only let her go?” he seems to be asking himself

Azief could only sigh.

If he wanted to he could kill Rosulka right at this second. Azief look toward the distance and he smiles.

There is a smirk. The distance is tens of thousands of kilometres away from this peak. He could see Rosulka being held on the back of a man. ”Yuri?” Azief thought to himself.

In the report, there is information about a man that met Rosulka in the Flame Region. A man called Yuri. ”I could solve this problem right now” he thought to himself.

All it takes is a wave of his hand. He could use one of the ten thousand sword to direct his energy and pierce Rosulka body even if she is running tens of thousands of miles away.

And she would be dead and this problem would never harm Katarina ever again. There is not many places in the world that could hide from his perception. ”What are you looking at?” Katarina suddenly ask. Azief did not answer and Katarina eyes turns sharp ”Are you looking at Rosulka?”

Azief did not say anything again. ”Donʼt do it!” ”Do what?” There is silence and only the sound of the wind fills the silence between them. ”She is my enemy. She is the thorn on my fingers. I will deal with her myself. In her, I see a fated chance”

Azief was just about to wave his hand, send a sword to pick up Rosulka head but then he sighed ”If you say it like that, how could I kill her?” killing off Katarina Fated Chance is like killing her chance to transcend.

Azief knows that if someone cut off his chance, he would surely go crazy. This things is even more important to them considering that they always aspire to reach the peak of power.

So, Azief let down his intention and his gaze is retracted

Katarina smiles. Looking at Azief, it is clear he had let go of wanting to kill Rosulka

She got up and then she waves her hand and ten thousand swords turns into a light flash that scatters away.

Now, on the clearing there is only Katarina and him

He turns towards her and ask ”Why...” but then he shakes his head. ”What?” ”What?” ”You always do that you know?” ”Do what?” ”Stop your question before it even came out of your mouth. When you are like that, I have to keep guessing.”

She paused for a second and then shakes her head ”I donʼt like that. I donʼt like that you have to censor yourself when speaking with me”

Azief only smiles at this and then he shakes his head. Then he ask ”Do you want to hear what I want to ask you?” ”Umm” Azief come closer to Katarina and instead asking her a question, he kiss her on her lips.

Katarina was startled and nearly take a step backward but ten she smiles and accept the kiss. ”Whatʼs that for?”

Azief only chuckles. ”Sometimes words are not as powerful as a kiss. See? In that brief moment, you even forget what you were mad about”

And saying this Azief could not help but chuckles a bit.

Then he holds Katarina wrist and then took a step forward. ”Hold tight”

Swoosh! >>
