Chapter 34 A Meeting of Three (3) At Osiris’s words that he was going to kill him, Shuriel simply frowned and stared at him in silence. Worried that someone might see what was happening, Harin hurriedly shut the door and ran toward Shuriel. “Father! Stop!” Osiris was horrified when he saw Harin running toward Shuriel. He immediately surrounded her with walls of ice, blocking her from reaching him. Harin stood helplessly in front of the ice wall and shouted at Osiris. “Stop!…-

Chapter 33 A Meeting of Three (2) Even as he spoke to her with a warm smile, Harin still felt as if she were dreaming. “How did you… know I was here?” Instead of answering, he raised his left hand and showed her the silver ring on his ring finger. It was clearly identical to the one on Harin’s left ring finger. It was an artifact that allowed the two of them to know each other’s locations. He had definitely told her about it before, yet she had asked him again… Even Harin…

Chapter 32 A Meeting of Three (1) The night Harin first slept beside Akrum was warm. She woke to the morning sunlight filtering through the cracks in the cave and the sound of birds chirping. Only then did she realize that she had somehow fallen asleep with her face buried in Akrum’s warm, soft belly. Considering Akrum’s prickly personality, he could easily have disliked having her body pressed against him like that. Yet he had quietly curled up on the cave floor without a single…

Chapter 31 Black Flames, Adversary of the Gods (5) The two attacks passed safely, as if a storm had swept through and then disappeared. Harin had come close to death several times in a single day, yet strangely, she felt refreshed and happy. Perhaps it was because she had learned so much more about Shuriel through everything that had happened. Night had already fallen. Inside a cave in the forest, Harin added another piece of firewood to the campfire and thought back over what had…

Chapter 30 Black Flames, Adversary of the Gods (4) “You bastard… You’re an Asura?!” “……” Instead of answering, Shuriel raised the hand that had been cut by the sword earlier. Blood was still dripping from the wound. Fwoosh-! Black flames instantly burst into life and then vanished. The wound on his hand had disappeared completely, as if he had never been injured in the first place. There was no longer any doubt that he was one of their kind. The Asura with dark-blue…

Chapter 29 Black Flames, Adversary of the Gods (3) Harin cried out in shock. Shuriel had stepped in front of her and was blocking the blade with one hand. Blood trickled down the blade and fell to the ground. “Blood…!” The moment Harin saw that he was injured, her whole body began to tremble. In her panic, she hurriedly removed the artifact hanging from her arm so she could treat his wound. The man who had swung the sword looked at Shuriel blocking his way as if he were nothing…

Chapter 28 Black Flames, Adversary of the Gods (2) After that, Harin and Shuriel continued through the forest. As they traveled through the nearly deserted woods, Harin spent most of her time training her abilities. She began by trying to lift an entire river out of its bed. She wanted to find out how much water she could control at once. Whooosh— As Harin focused and imagined lifting the water into the air, the river rose without requiring much effort at all. The water lifted so high…

Chapter 27 The Black Flame, Adversary of God (1) “Shuriel...!!” Harin’s face lit up as she called his name. Shuriel smiled brightly as he caught her before she could fall. “Ms. Harin, have you been well?” Strictly speaking, she had been through one life-threatening situation after another, but simply seeing him again was enough to brighten her expression. She unconsciously nodded. Shuriel paused for a moment and looked at her curiously. “By the way, Ms. Harin, this…

Chapter 26 The Fallen Star, Mirharin (6) As Harin stared blankly at the enormous whale floating in the sky, she fell rapidly downward and desperately wondered how she was supposed to land without getting hurt. But before she could think for long, several black shadows flew in from all directions. They grabbed onto Harin’s clothes, arms, and legs, stopping her fall in midair. “Dolphins...?” They were definitely a pod of dolphins. And they were flying through the sky. Another…

Chapter 25 The Fallen Star, Mirharin (5) The only things lighting the underground prison, which had become completely dark with nightfall, were the lanterns held by the two guards standing outside the bars. The incredible events from earlier felt like a dream. With all hope abandoned, Harin simply crouched weakly on the floor, leaning against the wall. He helped me……. Harin remembered how the King of Assyria had frozen Franz’s hand when he tried to attack her. Had he done that because…
