The battles continued on. Varian attracted more and more abyssals toward him. Even the powerhouses and Sovereigns were focused on killing him.
‘If you feel overwhelmed, come to me. I’ll fight your fights while you can rest,’ He told him before the trial began.
Sarah and Sia thought of resting under his protection for a while but thanks to the majority targetting Varian, they got a breather.
And as Varian grew more and more efficient in slaughtering the crowd, he attracted more of the crowd.
This allowed the two girls to retire to a corner of the battlefield quietly for rest and to meet someone special.
“…Is she?” As they flew to an island away from the continent where the battle was happening, Sarah glanced at the woman on the island and asked in a nervous voice.
Sia bit her lip as she looked at the familiar face and said with a weak smile, “Yes, she’s Amanda.”
‘I…Where am I?’ Amanda glanced around in confusion. She could see the sea, but the water was pink, not blue. The trees on the island were weird, even the sky was a weird mix of purple and blue.
‘Did that voice really mean it?’
Amanda remembered something strange happening to Sia and the girl attacking the wolf and saving Varian. But in the process, Sia lost her rationality and also attacked her.
Amanda touched her chest with a trembling hand. She could still feel the searing pain she felt when she died.
But the moment she was about to close her eyes, a voice appeared and said it’d give her a chance to revive if she killed the person that killed her.
Amanda didn’t want to kill Sia but she wanted to meet her again using this opportunity.
‘…She used some forbidden power to save Varian and killed me without wanting to. I know she’d be devastated and even Varian…I can’t imagine what will happen with him.’
Amanda was worried just thinking about what happened after her death.
So, when she opened her eyes, she was determined to find Sia and tell her to not feel guilty about what happened.
After raising her for so long, Amanda long considered Sia as her own and didn’t want the cheerful girl to become gloomy.
But when she opened her eyes and was about to find the girl, what she saw took her breath away.
There were millions and millions of abyssals, far more than she’d ever seen on the broadcast. And these abyssals were fighting a few insanely powerful turtles and some figures in the sky.
Amanda was just a level 1 and she couldn’t see who exactly the abyssals were fighting against.
All she could see were small dots in the sky appearing and disappearing rapidly and powerful explosions wherever they appeared.
Even though she was more than a thousand miles away from these dots, her skin still stung when the shockwaves reached her.
‘Just where the hell did I land?’
As she clutched her heart in fear, the same voice that brought her here said ‘Kill!’. And a burning killing intent rose from the bottom of Amanda’s heart and turned her attention towards the three dots in the sky.
She couldn’t even see them but she wanted to kill them at any cost. No matter who they were, no matter the cost.
“Die!” As Amanda circulated her lightning aura and was about to run with the crowd of abyssals, an exclaimed ‘Oh’ sounded in her mind.
The voice seemed to struggle to say something to her but in the end, it simply sighed.
The next thing Amanda knew, the space around her twisted and she appeared on this weird island.
The killing intent in her heart still remained, but since it’s just impossible for her to go to cross the ocean and reach the continent with her power, Amanda’s rationality finally overcame her killing intent.
And as she began looking around in confusion, she felt the island’s atmosphere suddenly change.
The temperature went from cold to warm, the fierce wind grew gentle and the flowers bloomed as if they were welcoming a fairy.
Amanda raised her head and saw two girls slowly landing in front of her.
“You…”
Even as a woman, Amanda was stunned by the young beauties.
She saw the brown-haired girl just before her death a while ago. She was very beautiful at just seventeen.
But now, in just a few minutes of time, the same girl seemed to have grown up and turned into a stunning beauty. In an elegant black dress and a silent aura, she seemed like a devilish beauty.
‘Wait, how much time passed since my death?’ Amanda wondered as she noticed the changes in Sia and turned to the girl next to her.
p AndD nOve1.cO,m Soft blonde hair that flowed like a waterfall and sky blue eyes that shone brightly. Even though the girl tried to keep a poker face, her knitted brows and her pursed lips showed her nervousness. In a beautiful white dress and a cold aura, she looked like an angel of myths.
‘…Who is she?’
Amanda stared at the two girls as they landed in front of her and the girls stared back at her.
The silence prevailed for two entire minutes before Amanda coughed and asked, “Sia, is that you?”
Sia’s body shuddered on hearing the familiar voice and the corner of her eyes turned wet. Not daring to look Amanda in the eye, Sia lowered her head and nodded, “Yes.”
“Woah, that voice wasn’t lying! I really met you again!” Amand clapped her hands and threw every other thought in her mind.
When she was dying, what she was the most worried about was Sia’s condition. With her gone, she’s the only one left with Varian. And Amanda herself wished Sia a good life.
So, no matter what, she wanted Varian to take care of Sia. And even the main reason she agreed to the dubious offer was to console Sia and take the guilt off her.
Now is the chance!
