Apocalypse Regression's
Departure of Jay
“Temperature is high enough. Although not so useful if used against high-level creatures, but this weapon has other uses.”
Ark pulled back his sword. The young man's hand clasped the handle tighter.
Just then, an orange-colored flame enveloped his entire blade. It looks more stable, and emits tremendous heat.
“The temperature is about 1100 degrees, much hotter than before.”
After declaring that, a blood-red energy enveloped the entire sword. The fire that covered the sword was shut off.
“This can only be done with the help of my strength. Arguably, this sword could only show its true strength in my hands. Therefore, even if you can use it, there are still conditions.”
Ark looked towards Jay with a serious expression.
“In this journey, you will bring three swords. Your main sword, a reserve sword of lesser quality, and Burning Star Sword I.
To deal with ordinary enemies, you use a spare sword. You can only use the main sword when fighting level 3 and above creatures. As for Burning Star Sword I ...
You can only use it when surrounded by enemies in too many quantities.”
“Why?” jay asked confusedly.
“Because this weapon is dangerous. First, even if you use a mask, but you can not 100% isolate the air. Second, you don't have any special abilities like me, so you can't turn off the fire directly.
Yes ... This fire is not easy to extinguish, so it should be used carefully. The reason I can turn it off is because it closes the entire sword with energy without the slightest gap, without air, the fire will die.
Under normal circumstances, the fire would die within 15 minutes. Sounds not long, but actually very long in a real fight. Enough to die dozens of times.
The reason why I gave this sword to you is just to make sure you can have a trump card when facing danger. Use this weapon to open the gap and escape.
Do you understand?”
“I understand!” answer Jay firmly.
“Then take.”
Jay nodded, then received the sword from the Ark. Touching the part of the blade, the man was surprised because the blade was not hot. Different from the previous smoldering appearance.
Looking towards the carefully crafted beautiful sword, Jay said.
“Thank you very much, Ark.”
Ark did not respond at all to the gratitude of his best friend, but continued to explain and make sure the man remembered all the important information.
“In addition to the 3 fuels used before, there are still 27 fuels. Use it wisely. Remember, the fire is 15 minutes! Use in danger state, not for stylish or playful!”
“I know, I know! Anyway thank you for helping me, buddy!”
“Go. Don't forget to say goodbye to Mona. Besides, do you really not want Huginn or Muninn to accompany you?”
“Let the two birds watch the area around the headquarters closely. I've been brash enough to leave Mona alone. At least, let the two birds be watchdogs so I can calm down.”
“You can rest easy, there's Roxanne and her colleagues.”
Hearing that, Jay immediately approached Ark. He then patted his best friend's shoulder while staring with a serious expression.
“I know that you keep your distance from others, Ark. Although all the members are close to you, there is a transparent curtain between you and them. Therefore, I really asked for help ...
Promise me, watch Mona, okay?!”
Seeing the serious expression on Jay's face, Ark was slightly surprised. He dismissed the man's hand then said in a flat tone.
“Don't talk as if you're going to die. But you don't have to worry. Mona and the baby in her body, I'll keep an eye on them.”
“Not keep an eye on, but protect!”
“Good, good .. You won. I promise to protect them. Are you satisfied now?”
Looking at Ark who is so perfunctory, Jay laughed. Although the words of his best friend sound unconvincing, Jay knows that the young man will not break his promise. It made her feel relieved.
Having a full smile on his face, Jay said.
“Thank you, Friend!”

“Si stupid it really did not choose to go back.”
Looking out the window, Ark let out a long sigh.
The young man then turned his gaze to his desk. Wiping the sweat on his forehead, he muttered.
“Although it is still a prototype, but the first form is almost complete. Compared to Burning Star Sword I that others can use, only I can use this thing.”
After saving his ‘new games’, Ark went out of his study.
The young man then went to one of the rooms and knocked on the door. After a few moments of waiting, the door of the room opened.
Looking at Roxanne who opened the door, Ark said.
“Did Mona eat? Still worried because that fool hasn't come back?”
“That's.” Roxanne nodded lightly with a haggard face.
“...”
Hearing Roxanne's confirmation, Ark fell silent. In order to protect people's safety and fight with the enemy, the young man felt no pressure at all. But things like amusing kindly were not his forte.
For some reason, Ark also felt somewhat depressed.
“Do you have a solution?” ask Ark.
“...”
Roxanne's stunned. The girl quietly sighed inwardly. If he had a solution, he would have obviously solved that problem.
Although he had time to get family affection, but Roxanne herself is also still a girl and has not started a family. So, she did not understand the feelings of Mona who was pregnant and left behind by her lover.
Ark stroking chin.
“Isn't this similar to the case where the wife is at home while the husband goes to work out of town? Yes ... it's still different. If it works as usual, security can indeed be guaranteed. In a world like this ...
It is hard to convince someone to be okay if not to look with their own eyes.”
Hearing that, Roxanne let out a long sigh.
“Specifically for people who are really worried.”

Meanwhile, in a building in the region of the middle circle.
“Is this what it's like to be on the battlefield alone? I really miss the warm food.”
Leaning against the wall with a cloak covering almost his entire body, Jay ate a dry biscuit with a sigh.
In these three days, Jay realized how important the team members, Ark in particular were. Without anyone else, he could not cook at all.
Actually he could make meat stew, but hesitating would make him flashy because he was not good at picking places. Finally, not only did it not eat anything tasty, but it put him in danger.
In the wild, fire can indeed be a source of light and warmth. However, if not careful, it would only invite doom.
“Truly troublesome.”
After eating two other pieces of biscuits, Jay let out a long sigh. Despite feeling unsatisfied, he was still grateful for being able to eat tasted biscuits.
“Ya .. at least not tasteless.”
After eating, Jay prepares to continue the journey. Making sure everything was taken and in good condition, the man nodded firmly and left. The direction of the goal seems very clear because ...
Jay had found traces of human life one day before!
