The Dark Slayer's

[S3] Chapter 31: Much Worse

Finally, the expected time has come. Now Leon and his friends are welcome to leave the rehab.

How long had they not breathed fresh air in the morning. Leon felt a cool air that was so comfortable filling his entire body. His mind again felt a cold feeling that he had not felt for a long time.

Under a large tree and a clear sky with few clouds, Leon and his friends stand parallel while staring up. The atmosphere was so calm, as if the world had been at peace again.

"Hey, do you want this mess to end quickly?" Suddenly Leon asked a question whose answer was very clear.

"of course. You think we're happy to keep fighting while so many lives are lost to it?"

"Yeah, I was stupid to ask that. I'm sorry, Sun."

"Haha, sometimes a fool like you will change things."

"I don't know if it's a mockery or a compliment ...."

"Stop that...."

That morning they relax while they have time. Maybe soon the real fight will come. So, they must always be ready to face all possibilities.

The city of Heels, after a month Vord returned after escorting Leon and the others to the Tower of Hope. The young man sat reading a book on the throne, letting the silence calm him down.

Before long, Vord stood up, headed for the window and looked ahead. Everything is safe as before. However, somehow Vord had a bad feeling in his mind.

"Ah, forget. Maybe it's just my other bad thoughts." Vord shook his head, then returned to sitting on the throne.

It was quite different when Sun wasn't here, but Vord wouldn't worry about the young man right now. He knew that they would be fine, and would probably return after some time. Even so, of course Vord was more hopeful that a troublesome situation would never happen.

Vord then remembered something when he thought about Sun and the others. This was one of the conversations with an old man in the Hope Tower laboratory.

At that time, the old man told Vord that a great war was coming. Every time Vord thought about it, and as time passed, his premonition also said bad things soon arrived.

"It seems like shutting myself in the room will only add more bad thoughts into my head. I need some fresh air." Immediately Vord closed the book, then walked out of his room.

Surely he does not know where to go, but maybe a walk around the city is not boring. Sighing a long sigh, Vord walked out of the building towards the road to just take a look.

While walking, Vord accidentally runs into a girl who is one of the level 2 Energy Eaters and just came here a week ago.

"Hey, Starla!" Vord greeted the girl.

"It just so happened to meet you, Vord." The girl with short shoulder-length hair turned towards Vord.

"What are you doing this morning?" Slowly Vord approached the slender girl in sexy clothes, and matched her footsteps.

"I plan on circling this City of Heels right now. I don't think morning's a bad time to do it."

"Anyone?"

"It doesn't seem to."

"So you're waiting for someone?"

"Not really."

"Then what?" Really, Vord doesn't understand this girl.

"That's because I'm with you, so I said I'm not alone."

"Did you want to mock me from the beginning?"

"I'm not mocking you. I'm just passing the facts."

Vord turned his gaze in the other direction. "As far as you go."

Yeah, although it's a little annoying, Vord can't hate this girl anyway. And it is very illogical that he hates him just because of trivial things. However, Vord felt like he had seen this girl before, but where?

Stop remembering the past that he didn't even want to remember, Vord again sighed as he continued walking forward.

Some residents were seen greeting and waving at the two of them. There were also those who were amazed and stunned to see Vord walking around them. Yes, as expected, it was the girls who fell in love with him, but were not avenged.

Finally, Vord and the girl named Starla reached the border. Where there is a large gate with several guards.

The wind blew fiercely, hit the bodies of both and delivered fresh air. Dust also drifted carried by the wind, but not too disturbing.

"It would be wonderful if the world were better than it is now." The sentence came out smoothly from Vord's mouth.

"Yes, I feel that way too." Starla rubbed her forehead for a moment. After that, he tried to change the subject. "Vord, have you thought about what you're going to do next?"

Vord was silent for a moment, still staring at the expressionless blue sky. "I thought I'd keep protecting this town until I found the right successor."

"You have no intention of changing the world?"

"That responsibility is too big for me. I feel like, even if it's just like this, everything's fine."

"That's it...."

Whether what Starla felt or thought was completely unknowable to Vord. However, Vord did not think too much about it either.

Suddenly, Vord turned back. Something is going on on the other side of town.

"Something's wrong! I need to check it out!" The vord just shot forward at full speed.

Dust followed her running direction. There are some residents who are also exposed to such a small wind wave.

The vord jumped, hovering in the air while still darting forward. Far away there, his eyes saw ordinary soldiers and tier 3 Energy Eaters attacking a creature slightly larger than a Human.

"Damn! It was Tan! How did they get here!"

The vord instantly landed right in front of the soldiers. Both of his hands he stretched out, signaling to stop attacking.

"Retreat! Get inside the protector! If it was just him alone, the protector would take care of it!"

"But, Mister...." One of the ordinary soldiers was about to say something.

Before the soldier said, Vord already knew what he was about to say.

"It's even worse...."

How not, so many Tan moves simultaneously towards the city. If seen first, maybe they number about 100.

"Taun Vord! Lothawat! On the south side also appeared a lot of Tan!" With a breath of breath, a brown-clothed youth exclaimed.

This urgent situation made Vord very troubled. How can I fight so many Tan alone?

"Curtain! All righty! You all! Quickly bring the residents in the underground Shelter! This bunch of jerks let me handle it!"

A gray aura appeared behind Vord. Formed the form of a monster that every time enlarges like a balloon.

"You will soon be devastated by fighting us, Vord Hasle...."

The sound made Vord look up. Up there was a very familiar man.
