BXBX NOVEL 265 Chapter 265
However, she didn't intend to just land on the ground, instead, she unsheathed her sword and aimed at Leislet, her cold eyes squinted to the size of a needle as she started rotating the blade ever so slowly in her hand. The speed was slow at first but was accelerating at an alarming rate.
Leislet saw that and immediately summoned her light threads, then, she made them create a huge spear that she launched at Lein. The two projectiles approached each other quickly.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
The clash created a festival of lights in the middle of the sky and the impact from the hit traveled tens of kilometers across the whole city.
Strands of lights could be seen moving and trying to surround Lein. The latter with her rotating blade was slicing all of them as she kept falling to the ground.
"Behind you, bitch!" Lein said coldly.
*Bang*
The distance left between Lein and the ground was completed with another kick from Leislet that made her create another crater in the ground.
At this point, the street was nothing but a mess of rocks and destruction. The question is, how did no one notice this large-scale bloody battle when it was literally happening in the middle of the city.
That was because of one single item that Acht possessed, an item he bought specifically for such times. He knew the potential danger he and the girls could face basically 24/7 so to not make matters worse, he had to make it as soundless as possible.
That's when the 'Domain expansion' artifact comes to the rescue. Its functionality is basically like a training capsule albeit not as complicated. You can't affect the environment inside of it like a proper training capsule but it was more than enough to contain battles between strong individuals.
'Fuck! I forgot that Leislet hates Lein to the bone and words won't stop her.' He cursed as he closed the distance between them as fast as he could.
They were still far away because of Leislet's launch when they were still inside the room. She had put a good chunk of her soul force into that throw and ended up getting very far.
Acht had to also a good amount of soul force throwing that artifact after them before the battle starts or the worst shit could happen.
"You don't know how much pain I felt when you took Acht away and killed innocent people in the mystic soul tournament. You are nothing but scumbags that need to be exterminated forever!!" Leislet landed near the crater and said with an aggravated tone.
Her face contorted with pain at the mere thought of those moments. She was at the lowest point of her life and all she could see was despair in front of her, nothing worked, nothing looked hopeful, and nothing seemed to be fine.
She felt as if the world was collapsing on her back and burying her with it. Luckily, she was able to emerge from that deep pit and stand on her feet again and restore what she loved the most.
But, now that Lein appeared again, all those regrets resurfaced again and she wanted to put an end to them… Once and for all.
"Hahahaha! Ignorance is pretty much a blessing. You righteous people are always the ones to do the right thing. But, where did that end up with you? Huh? A fucking bloody war across the whole planet and who stopped it? We, the scumbags and the cruel bunch that lurk in the darkness of society. Hell, most of us died because of it!! While you whined like a bitch, we fought to protect ourselves and the things we cherish!" Lien replied as she threw the rocks from on top of her away.
"Shut up!!!"
Strands of light attacked Lein again at the outrage of Leislet. Lien cracked her neck and vanished with her speed and appeared behind Leislet with her sword already near her neck. One more moment and her head will fly off.
*Swish* *Swish* *Swish*
The strands of light were already there when it happened, the sword then clashed with them creating an unpleasant sound along with sparks of burned metal.
'Fuck, how did she even materialize light and make it this sturdy.' Lien clenched her teeth as she tried to push these things away.
"There was no reason for your actions except for the sake of feeling satisfied by your horrible deeds. You are all twisted fuckers that deserved death!!"
The light started pushing Lein slowly, her strength couldn't rival it at all, she tried to find an escape route but they were all closed and all she could do was to keep her ground against them.
*Swish* Swish*
Even under such heavy pressure, Lein was able to dodge all the attacks quite easily which frustrated Leislet a lot.
'Just die! Die! Die! Die! Die!'
"Haaaaaah!! Just stop dodging and die!!!!!"
Leislet was in a crazed state, her emotions were all over the place, and her mind was drowned in anger and desire for revenge so she couldn't comprehend anything of what was happening around her. It was as if she didn't know herself anymore. This anger and hatred, was it really something that was a part of her for all these years yet she wasn't aware of it? Was she really this yearning for the death of this woman?
Then, out of nowhere, two hands reached her from behind before she could even react and pulled her in. Her eyes widened at first since she didn't understand what happened but then when she felt the familiar warmth of the person behind her and his broad chest, her eyes calmed down considerably.
"It's not worth losing yourself for the sake of killing her. You will lose far more because of it. Trust me." He whispered gently as he caressed her head.
"But, but…"
"I don't want the person I fell in love with to become this vengeful. You don't want to become this vengeful either, you are a gentle person Leislet and that's who you are meant to be. As I said, if she was worth killing, I would kill her right in front of you. But, for now, I want you to calm down. Here I am, we came from such a long way and we faced many challenges, but we changed for the better through them. We can't ruin that progress over something so filthy like revenge."
His words resonated with Leislet and made her anger vanish as if it was never there, instead, a strong feeling of guilt replaced it. Her tears started falling from her face.
"I'm sorry… Hick…"
"I know you meant no harm. You wanted to take revenge for me, right?"
"Yes… Hick…" She replied between her sobs.
"I am thankful for that. You always think of me and that makes me happy." A warm smile appeared on his face as he gazed deep into her eyes.
'That smile… It always saves me.' Leislet thought to herself.
