Apocalypse Regression's
Who Walked On Dark Nights
In a luxurious mansion, Silvia sat quietly while closing her eyes.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
Hearing the knock on the door, the woman opened her eyes. He then said in a flat tone.
“Log.”
The door opened, then Irene's figure entered the room. He then walked towards Silvia then said softly.
“Mission has been completed.”
“Good.” Silvia nodded lightly.
“Can I ask you something, Miss Silvia?”
“Tell me.”
“Why do you let go of people who might make trouble for you in the future, Miss. Even if you know brother Evans, it doesn't mean you'll just let go of that young man. Even facing some relatives acquaintances, you were not so compassionate before.”
“…”
Looking towards Silvia who was silent alone, a curious expression appeared on Irene's face. Thinking of something, he was immediately shocked. The woman then asked with an expression of disbelief.
“Maybe ... that person is-“
“Enough, Irene. You don't have to think about anything unnecessary. He is just part of the past. No less, no more.”
Irene noticed an extreme change in Silvia's face. Cold, pain, hatred, and various emotions were mixed in the woman's expression. At that moment, he understood that his conjecture might be true. Instead of saying something to cheer up, the woman could only let out a long sigh. After all, he understood how Silvia had fought to this extent.
“Then I will resign, Miss Silvia.”
“…”
Silvia did not answer. But after Irene left, the woman let out a long sigh. He propped up his chin, staring out the window. Looking at the blue sky without a speck of clouds, Silvia muttered.
“You ... still remember me, right?”
Although a cold expression was still imprinted on Silvia's face, but a trace of sadness appeared within her eyes.

Meanwhile, at the Golden Crown headquarters.
The figure of the middle-aged man who was the chairman of the Golden Crown group paced around in his office. He's obviously very worried. After obtaining the information on the Sword of Sufferings, the middle-aged man was clearly aware of the other party's cruelty. At first, he was still very confident in the power of the Crux of Shadow. However, right now his thoughts were falling apart.
‘That monster ..’
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth. He was obviously very angry, but also felt helpless. The man felt that his group was just a small beast caught between giant battles. The friction between the two could really make his group disappear.
‘Didn't they say that they are followers of the Dark Goddess who is tasked to protect humans from the demons that rebel and disrupt the world? Big bullshit! They were even overwhelmed facing a group of ruthless criminals!’
Recalling Draco's horror, the middle-aged man gritted his teeth. He was angry, but also scared. The man clearly no longer considered the people from the Crux of Shadow and Sword of Sufferings to be humans, but rather the monsters behind human skin.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
“Log in!”
The office door opened, then a young man figure entered the room. He then saluted before saying.
“I came to report, Chairman!”
“Say, what's up! Is there any progress?”
“Please excuse me, Chief. Currently the area around the opponent's headquarters was heavily guarded. We can't infiltrate at all. Some people try to enter, but never return at all.”
Hearing that, the middle-aged man's eyes immediately widened. He stared at his subordinates with an expression of disbelief.
“STUPID! STUPIDHEAD! WHY ARE YOU EVEN IN?!”
The middle-aged man immediately paced back and forth in the office while scratching his head with a depressed expression. He had obviously sent out some reliable scouts to search for information on the Sword of Sufferings. Not only were there no results, but they all disappeared instead. The middle-aged man guessed that the Sword of Sufferings had captured them, which meant …
The information about the Golden Crown trying to investigate them had been leaked!
The middle-aged man stared at the soldier with such clear killing intent in his eyes. At this moment he was obviously very angry and irritated.
“Report, Chairman! There are two other news that I have not delivered.”
“SAY!”
“First, despite failing to know what was going on inside, but the officers have gotten real information about what the Sword of Sufferings did outside the headquarters area.”
Hearing that, the middle-aged man's expression changed completely. He seemed a little obsessed, so hurriedly gave the order.
“Then what are you waiting for? Report everything immediately!”
“Lapor, Chairman. The reason the Sword of Sufferings group came out of the headquarters area was to search for various strange mutated plants. They seem to collect plants for research purposes. In addition, they also take quite a lot of saplings of bread trees.”
“Are they crazy? Plant mutates? Obviously 90% of the plant is dangerous to consume, why do such a ridiculous thing? Could there be some crazy scientists in their group?
In addition, they also took the saplings of the bread tree. That kind of thing is obviously useless. Compared to some herbs that were easier to live and grow, the bakery plant was clearly difficult to move. We ourselves have tried it many times but the tree will die at the latest for seven days. We have even sacrificed many people.”
“Please excuse me, Chief. However ... it seems that they managed to move the saplings of the bread tree and let it stay alive.”
“APA?!”
The middle-aged man stared at the soldier who was reporting. Seeing the serious and somewhat fearful expression on the young man's face, he became even paler. Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged man then asked.
“Then what do you want to report next?”
“Lapor, Chairman. Several people from the Emerald Goshawk group, including with their chairman came to see you.”
Hearing the report, the middle-aged man's eyes were filled with shock. He narrowed his eyes, thinking.
‘What do those people really want to do to bother coming to a dangerous opponent's base like this?’

Her night.
After speaking at length with the Golden Crown group, Mattias and his group members decided to return. Although they could have stayed over, but they felt that being at the Golden Crown headquarters where there was also a Crux of Shadow there was clearly more dangerous than chasing zombies.
By the time they all walked away from the Golden Crown headquarters, Caroline asked.
“Do you think that's the right decision, brother? I mean, shouldn't we stay away from battles between groups that are dangerous for us?”
“We cannot let innocent people die in vain. At least we've been trying to help them. Believe it or not, the rest is up to them.”
After saying that, Mattias shook his head. At that moment, they were all startled by the sound of birds chirping.
On looking up into space, they saw two large white birds circling right above them. This makes them all alert. Following Mattias' arrangements, they decided to immediately go into hiding. But when he did not see the two birds attacking, Mattias and his colleagues looked confused.
Before they could get out of the building, the men suddenly listened to the bell.
The ring! The ring! The ring!
His voice sounded soft, approaching slowly but surely.
After some time, everyone immediately leaned against the wall to hide themselves. Their bodies are trembling. Cold sweat drenched their backs. Mattias immediately shut Caroline's mouth, asking everyone to hold their breath.
Outside the building was a gigantic white wolf figure with snow-white fur walking calmly. The creature exuded a powerful pressure, making everyone from the Emerald Goshawk not dare to move in the slightest.
As long as others hid themselves, Mattias tried to peek out of the window. At that moment, his expression changed.
In addition to the bell on the necklace, there was also a saddle on the body of the giant wolf. On top of it was a white-robed, masked man sitting like a king on his throne. The figure turned its head towards him, making Mattias see two ruby-like eyes that looked through deep into his soul.
At the moment Mattias was frightened, the white-robed figure gently patted the wolf's back. Slowly but surely, they went away. After completely disappearing in the distance, Mattias and his comrades instantly inhaled the air greedily. Their bodies were completely weak and their faces were also extremely pale.
Recalling the pair of eyes that had clearly seen him before, Mattias could not help but question something in his heart.
‘Is it .... truly human?’
