Apotheosis

Zelda looked up at the black figure perching on the city wall. Her pretty face remained calm, but the hatred in her eyes was obvious.

She and Luther had suffered too much. Luther was young at the time, and she had had to take on most of the difficulties.

She had been devastated to lose her parents.

She could do nothing but watch her uncle and his family being crushed by the huge millstone.

The three brothers who had saved her were shot down by arrows.

And the past flashed before her eyes again with the swiftness of a viper.

She had her reasons to want revenge but she had to try to suppress the hatred that filled her heart.

She had become excited at having found the right person - Zen, which resulted in her trying every possible means to ask him to help her.

Zelda knew that Zen was a person of integrity, or she would have considered offering him everything she had, including her own body.

As she waited, fear overcame her. She was afraid that Zen would go back on his word.

She hadn't expected everything to go so smoothly.

So step by step, she stepped into this space, and finally returned to her hometown. Now it was time for her to exact her revenge.

"Aunt Sandy! You weren't expecting us to meet again like this, were you?" Zelda smiled, thoroughly enjoying herself.

The Warden race wasn't too big. Even if the free faction and the conservative faction had become enemies, they could still build up a kind of seniority with each other. That was why Zelda addressed the dark figure as Aunt Sandy.

But that didn't mean Zelda regarded her as a respected elder.

Sandy stared at Zelda for a while before muttering, "I wasn't expecting this. I never thought that your free faction would go this far and choose to lure these outsiders in to kill our race."

Zelda made to retort, but Luther's voice interrupted her from behind.

"You think we have gone too far?" Luther walked up to Zelda as he

looks like you are completely useless. They are easily torturing you one by one," Sandy said savagely and retreated.

Spark stood still, his heart sinking.

It was at this moment that he realized that the Warden race had completely used him.

He was usually very smart, making it difficult for others to use him like this. But at the moment, he had been eager to leave this world, and had thought of obstructing the Nine Li race and the Snake Goddess race. That was why he had willingly agreed to work with the Warden race.

He hadn't expected to be abandoned so easily.

"You!"

As he looked at Sandy's retreating back, his eyes filled with resentment.

"Spark, what should we do now? Stop them outside?" one of the exiles of the Yellow Emperor race asked him.

They had followed Spark all the way here, but they had never thought they would find themselves in such a situation.

"Forget it! Let's go!"

There was a gleam in Spark's eyes.

He had led the Yellow Emperor race for so many years, which obviously meant that he was a remarkable man.

And now that he had been abandoned, how could he continue to work for the Warden race? So he made a prompt decision and led his two clansmen to the other side. But he vowed that he would not let the Warden race go so easily.
