Apocalypse Regression's

Asking Purpose

A few hours later, in the building not far from the Ark met Evans.

“Is everything going to be okay, Chairman?”

Leon looked towards Evans who was asleep in the distance. His entire wound has been treated by Ark. Now the young man was asleep from exhaustion both physically and mentally. Not only Leon, but Draco was worried as well. Not to mention the other twenty members, they were obviously sorry to see Evans' condition.

They all know that Ark did this for Evans. But for them, it was too cruel. Those people saw with their own eyes that the young man was really almost ‘rak’. For normal people, under such conditions, being able to get up or not is already a question. Especially becoming stronger.

“Do you have an opinion?” said Ark flat.

Looking towards Evans, Leon clenched his hand. Although Evans is a boy and has grown up, but he feels that a younger brother is a younger brother. Similar to his little brother. He clearly still felt regret for not being able to protect his own sister. So when he saw Evans in such a state, the man felt pity.

“No, Boss.” Leon.

Seeing Leon's appearance, Ark patted him on the shoulder. The young man said casually.

“Tenace. Everything will be fine.”

After saying that, Ark headed to where Evans slept. He then sat quietly while waiting for his sister.

About two hours later, Evans finally opened his eyes.

At the sight of the roof and the unfamiliar surroundings, the young man hurriedly sat down. He immediately gritted his teeth when he felt pain all over his body. Just then, a calm voice sounded in his ears.

“Don't move too much, your injuries haven't recovered.”

Evans' body jerks. She turned her head, then found her brother sitting quietly while propping up his chin. The young man then trembled and asked in a tone of disbelief.

“Is that really you, Brother Archie?”

“If not?” reply Ark tasteless.

“Then, Brian is really dead?” evans muttered with an expression of disbelief.

“...”

Ark chose silence. He looked towards his sister who was holding onto his head with a depressed expression without saying a word. Evans then turned to her and asked.

“Why did you get to this place, brother? Were you here from the beginning? Then why haven't we met before?”

“I came from another city together with my friends.”

“Temans-your friends?” Evans asked with an astonished expression, but he felt a bad premonition.

“Sword of Sufferings. You should have heard of it, right?”

Hearing that, Evans stared at the Ark with wide eyes. Memories of when he fought with Saito, then Brian who returned with a wound on his chest appeared within the young man's head. Having an forced smile, he asked.

“You must be lying, right, brother? There's no way you're a member of that group, right?”

“It looks like you misunderstood, Evans.”

“Eh?”

Looking at the surprised and confused expression on Evans' face, Ark said with a flat expression on his face.

“I am Hades, Chairman of the Sword of Sufferings.”

Hearing that, Evans immediately shuddered. He then directly rolled over and took out a dagger not far from him. The young man got up and looked towards the Ark while shouting.

“Who are you really! You are similar, but you are not Archie! You who?!”

“Believe it or not, I am your brother.”

“Then why did you and your friends attack my best friend? Brother Archie obviously won't treat my friend badly!”

“Oh?”

“Is that young scout your friend? So so ...”

“WHAT? WHAT DO YOU KNOW?!” Evans gritted his teeth.

“That means you are the young man whom the elders suspect to be their chosen one.” Ark stroking chin. “With your strength, it does match.”

“...”

Seeing Evans looking so confused, Ark then explained.

“The reason why the Sword of Sufferings came to this city and I took the lead personally was to avenge the Crux of Shadow. I also wanted to look for you, but did not have much hope since it had already been over a year.

As you know, Evans. Too much has happened over the past year.

I don't even know if that scout is your friend or not. Yet the Spirit of Fire behind him tried to get help. Yes, trying to ask by paying is no problem. As you know, since I was a kid I loved bartering. But you also have to remember.

They might threaten me or beat me up like the middle-aged man at the vegetable market just yet, but I would never be willing to give anyone who threatens me. Also, didn't they all end up disappearing?”

Klang's!

The dagger in Evans' hand fell to the floor. Just then, a childhood memory appeared in the young man's head. A long time ago, little Ark used to work in the market and there were thugs who beat him to the point of not being able to get up to take his money. However, that person simply disappeared.

At that moment, the uncle and aunt at the market told him that the thug might run away because they had reported it. But hearing Ark's words now, Evans felt it wasn't all that simple.

“You ... You're not an office employee?”

“Of course I'm also an office employee. However the job could only be considered a part-time. My real profession is ...

Member of the assassin organization, Reign of Shadow, Ark.”

Hearing that, Evans whose emotions were unstable immediately clenched tightly into both of his hands.

“SO YOU'VE BEEN LYING TO ME ALL THIS TIME, ARCHIE? YOU ... YOU ...”

“No one would want his family to see such a dark side, Evans.”

“...”

“You can indeed blame me for me telling my subordinates to attack your friend. But you have to remember, in this crazy world, the strong eat the weak.

The Spirit of Fire or the Crux of Shadow provoked us. Do we have to be quiet when we are almost stepped on? Besides, why are you blaming the Sword of Sufferings and not the Spirit of Fire?

Or ... why don't you blame yourself?”

“Eh?” Evans' eyes widened.

“You must know that the Spirit of Fire is suppressed by the Crux of Shadow. When confirming that you have powers similar to the Crux of Shadow, they madly targeted you. It happens because you are reckless. This is a conflict between you and the Spirit of Fire.

Your friend? He is just a victim who appeared because of your dispute.”

“I ... I killed Brian?”

Evans looked down while looking at his own two hands. His breathing began to erratic, his brain suddenly hurt.

“After learning that the possessor of that power is you, my own sister, I am no longer interested. So I myself no longer care about the Spirit of Fire because there is nothing I need from them. My business now is to confront the Crux of Shadow that threatens the Sword of Sufferings.

I'm glad to see you here, Evans. I want you to join the Sword of Sufferings, then I will send you away from this city because it is no longer safe. But I know that it was selfish, so I wanted to ask ..”

Ark walked up to Evans who was looking down. He then touched his sister's chin and raised his face. His red eyes stared at Evans as he asked.

“What do you want to do, My sister?”
