Chapter 119: Her Lion
His name was Hans.
Hans was one of the children of the existence behind the dark kingdom event.
He usually wouldn't come out without his father's permission, but Hans was another victim again.
His mind often flashed with beautiful red hair and eyes, which pushed him to fulfill her wishes.
Hans' presence didn't look like a simp in his dark flame armor.
He walked with staggering beaming, his armor featuring his skills, "That fire tickles me."
[Hans Dark Lv. 80 HP: ??? MP:???]
Hans' level was lowered to match those of his opponents.
That was why Reylin and Aria didn't feel their chances were low.
They reorganized promptly.
Aria took a few graceful steps back, then lifted her sword.
She held it with two hands while keeping her eyes sharp on the opponent.
The way she held it told Hans that she was going for a fast thrust, and he was ready for whatever was about to come from her.
"Your ability is kinda similar to flames. Your slash ate my flames, but I can keep producing them... And I don't think your ability will work twice, Miss," Hans sneered as his flames howled.
At that time, a scarlet fire bloomed on Reylin's hand, "Eat my flames then."
A brief eye contact happened between Aria and Reylin, then scarlet flames descended from the sky.
It was the first legendary skill!
The sunset slammed Hans, gobbling him in an instant. Those flames promptly hid the dark flame guy within its embrace, but his black flames never faded.
Soon, a black sun emerged within the scarlet pillar!
At last, Aria made her move.
Her sword carried her bleeding skill, tearing through the air as she ran toward him. Her swordsmanship skills were applied one by one to enhance her thrust!
As her tip disappeared within the scarlet flames, Reylin flicked his fingers.
In an instant, his scarlet pillar disappeared, leaving Hans blinking.
Those flames went toward Aria's sword!
[You have received Rey Flames Lin' Legendary Flames.]
[Your Lioness' Sharp Claw has been enhanced!]
That was not all, however.
Reylin found no problem summoning three legendary skills, so he called two more, and all went toward Aria's sword.
Her sword brimmed with flames, looking like a weapon made by the god's hand.
[Your skills have blended.]
[You've learned Legendary Skill - Lion's Fire Sharp Claw.]
Those system messages flashed in Aria's eyes.
She smirked and thrust her sword forth.
It went through the man's sword as if it was butter, and his armor posed no problem to her as well!
The combination of her skill with Reylin devoured Hans' flames, and she buried her sword deep within his body!
Severe bleeding was applied immediately.
It was akin to legendary bleeding, so Hans screamed in anguish.
He lost control over his body.
His eyes expanded, and blood welled up. His screams stopped when he choked on his blood and promptly vomited it!
Naturally, Aria wasn't satisfied with one thrust, "I devour," she chuckled and used one of her sword dances.
In an instant, a few slashes went through Hans' body.
His armor dropped one by one, turning into ownerless flames that dispersed due to the lack of their commander.
At that time, Reylin whistled, "How fierce. And I somehow survived all clashes with her~~ Don't mind me."
He sauntered closer to Hans and shared his good mood with him.
It was always good to have a good frontline, and it worked magically with Lioness. They had such a tight connection that making combinations and quick plans through brief eye contact was just too easy.
"You said that my flames tickle? If that's tickling, I guess you should meet Steel Melody." He kept laughing, but even Reylin's good mood halted.
[You can't absorb ????'s Fire.]
The dark flame on Hans' body couldn't be used as fuel to regenerate Reylin's mana. That forebodes some difficulties for the future, and Reylin needed to know more about this man!
He flicked his fingers again and fished out the bone sword from his inventory.
Epic Sword cut through Hans' arm effortlessly, and Reylin seized his body before Hans escaped.
"I am one of the... princes... Legendary Flames... Ah, it was a legend... Heh... Let me show you what legend is..." Hans grabbed his head with all blood flowing down as if he stood in the red rain.
[Hans Dark Lv. 120 HP: 2045/15 000 MP: 5061/40 000]
In an instant, the temperature around the couple heightened.
Reylin looked down, and he saw the ground becoming darker... "From below?"
He was ready to rush to the sky with Aria in his arms, but the whole event stopped after an unknown teleport appeared behind Hans.
A hand grasped his clothes and pulled him back in!
Hans disappeared, but before he did, he glared at the couple and swore to erase them, "You won't step in this world anymore! Both in this and yours!"
Reylin and Aria glared back, then turned glanced into each other's eyes.
"That teleport was familiar," Reylin spat.
His girlfriend understood his feelings well.
That teleport was too similar to the one used in the newest event...
A master behind that event was confirmed, and it seemed like he didn't have good intentions toward everyone.
"He was infatuated with the queen... His tone reeked off a man dancing on the woman's palm... Do you think it is Yvonne?" Aria asked while cleaning her sword.
Reylin squinted his eyes, "That's possible."
Yvonne was in the tournament, and many people had seen her.
She was the hottest topic just because of her appearance and background. Of course, she also used some skills, and those left people speechless...
She was strong and beautiful, a woman that players with strength would covet for and yearn to conquer.
Alas, she also reeked off.
So far, Yvonne hadn't fought anyone from the top.
Whether it was Reylin, Aria, or even Camila and other top players from the continent, Yvonne hadn't faced either of them, and she continued to fight with trash like that Punisher.
Reylin added, "The Queen must be a new person... Everything seems cloaked in mystery so far, but that dude came out of sudden and probably disturbed that master's plans. The more I think about it, the better I can see Yvonne as the queen."
"She probably charmed the king as well," Aria chuckled.
That woman was no longer in Reylin's eyes, but Aria's glance asked another question for her boyfriend.
He smiled at her, liking that Aria was a little insecure but still confident in herself.
He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer, "I am your Lion."
The messages about their skill combination butted in between them.
Reylin drew them, and he flicked the message about the new skill.
[Lion's Fire Sharp Claw.]
It spiraled around, then Aria flicked it back, "Just a fire, though... I will make it Crown Fire soon enough."
A challenge bloomed within her eyes.
"You will," Reylin smirked at the challenging Lioness, then calmed down the beast by planting a deep kiss on her lips.
She pulled him deeper, and they stood in an embrace amidst the dead mini-bosses.
A few players passing by nearly shrieked out of fear, then glanced at the couple with jealousy!
Reylin peeked at them, then broke the kiss, "A crowd, huh... That's what I will do when we meet that Bitch Yvonne, Aria... I will hold you even tighter and make her stare at us with incredulity."
"She should know about us already, though," Aria smiled.
"I know her... Even if she sent that guy because she fears me, she will still use my infatuation for her once things go south... That will be when I will lift your chin and do this," Reylin repeated what he liked the most.
Aria gave up and spent time amidst the dead bodies until 8 a.m!
It was time for their daily routine!
-
In a dark place, Yvonne's hair stood out.
She was like a candle but much more arousing.
Besides the king, Yvonne had already left a profound influence on a few people.
One of them was Hans.
Yvonne didn't tell him straight to erase Reylin but often commented about his flames and rising strength.
Those were genuine feelings, but what was not genuine was the place she had been complaining in all the time.
She always complained when Hans was around, and he finally broke!
Alas, when Hans was about to use his real strength, the king had taken him away.
Hans was receiving punishment while Yvonne silently practiced her skill.
It was a skill she had received at the beginning of the game from the hidden master.
That master was long since dead.
Yvonne had killed him.
She took his book, filled with many other skills, but she lacked experience. She was in a similar situation to Lioness, and she needed examples.
The King... was what could help her with her skills!
Yvonne's long finger coated itself in mana, then drew a circle...
Another circle appeared on the other side, and she shoved an item into a ring floating before her.
That item went through it, then dropped from the other circle.
Yvonne nodded, then called her troops.
One of them stepped forth.
"Go through it." She flicked her fingers, and one of her troops passed through the bigger circle.
However, what came out was the mangled dark matter.
"I still can't control my portals..." That was Yvonne's primary skill!
No one could come closer to her due to that power.
Yvonne got much better with her portals, though!
