The miserable life of Arknights

Surrounded by golden light, Manfred raised his head and looked at the pocket watch at the zenith, which attracted his attention.

"This is..."

Mandra didn't have that thought, she knew the gap between her and Manfred, and she couldn't be distracted by this vision.

Her staff, which is also the casting unit, is enough to cast it once.

She only had this one chance.

The ground beneath everyone's feet trembled, the destroyed stone statues rose again, and the dust was buried by golden light.

The stone statues stumbled towards each other, hugging each other tightly, and became stone statues only five meters tall.

She doesn't have amazing talents, and she can't become an infected person and use her life to boost the power of spells.

Newborn stone statues flap their wings, and storms gather around them.

The stone staff cracked, and the statue rushed towards Manfred.

"Defense!" Manfred yelled at the surrounding Sakatz.

"Understood, General, you are also careful! It's going for you..."

"Take care of yourselves." Manfred clenched his sword and returned his attention to his eyes.

Take a deep breath.

The huge stone statue roared at him, and the fierce wind from its wings smashed countless bricks and stones towards him, and its fangs almost touched his face.

Mandra, who had only one eye left, watched the stone statue stop in front of Manfred, snorted with a smirk, and looked up at the huge pocket watch at the zenith.

Boom——!!

Manfred's sword pierced the body of the huge stone statue, penetrating the opponent's chest and shattering the structure inside, and finally collapsed, becoming countless rubble.

Manfred returned to his standing position and looked at Mandra, who was no longer holding the staff.

"Look, you can't play with those stones anymore."

"Even the people (who are not the leaders) of the Stone Wing Demon King Court may not be able to defeat me here."

"Without a staff, you are no different from a weak ordinary film."

Mandra didn't reply, just looked at the pocket watch in the sky and listened to the sound of time moving.

“...... Perhaps your faith really moved some ancient witchcraft. Manfred withdrew his sword into its scabbard, and the golden light illuminated the night.

"But that doesn't change your destiny, it's been doomed from the moment you enter Lentinime."

......

"It's out."

The pocket watch at the zenith cracked a slightest gap, and a line popped out of it.

Float over Lentinom.

"Where is this?" The lines tremble in the air "Invisible..."

....

“...... From the moment you enter Lentinium, it's all doomed. "

......

"Doomed...?" The line heard Manfred's voice.

The line traces the source of the sound to the sky above the two.

Blood from Mandra's face dripped to the ground, as did the wound pierced by Manfred.

"Demon Guy... You are still like this until now... Arrogant, haha..." Mandra's figure swayed, and she was almost unable to stand up.

"Just because, you damn it, you were born... Strength.

Mandra's hand searched for a weapon on his body, leaving only a small knife.

"I'm going to kill you..." "

Kill me? Do you think that after killing me, you will be able to go back and ask your leader for credit? Manfred looked at the ridiculous knife in Mandra's hand.

"Even if you can kill me, guess if she'll happily welcome you back or send your head back to Rentinium."

“......"

......

"The leader has already abandoned me."

"Mandra, don't go to the leader."

......

"Maybe at dawn I will see a messenger from outside."

"The messenger must have been instructed by some count or baron, but there is no doubt that behind him must be the duke from the Tara region."

"They may thank me for getting rid of an unstable madman commander for them, which gives us a better start to the negotiations that follow."

"Sakaz was always used as a good tool. Yes, at this point we, like you, hate these arrogant nobles.

Manfred looked at Mandra, who was motionless.

"But.... Mandra, you can only go so far. Mandra

, who was standing still, suddenly rushed towards Manfred, and the knife in her hand was pressed against Manfred's neck, and she could no longer move forward after being pinched in her right hand.

"Pocket knife? You want to sneak up on me with a knife? Manfred looked at the ordinary knife, right in front of him.

"Haha..... Ahem.... In case of.... Can I succeed?

Manfred grabbed Mandra's hand and flung it outward, smashing Mandra to the ground, rolling over and over again.

“.... The nerves of your brain grow on the heart, have they just been pierced by me?

"I told you, you can't kill me. Moreover, even if you kill me, it will not make any sense.

Mandra lay on the ground, she was no longer able to make any more movements, her limbs no longer seemed to be hers.

"No.... Significance? Ha ha... Hahaha..."

"What if.... Anything that will happen..... There must be a meaning, that.... Isn't it meaningless for people like us to live from the beginning? "

I'm going to kill you." Not because of anyone's orders. It's just because..." "

I want to do it."

Manfred was silent for a long time"... What a madman. "

Maniac.... Is it? Look at your always so confident and calm face..... yes, you don't understand .... Because you can always do what you want to do with ease.

Mandra's body was twitching, uncontrollably convulsing.

"Wait for the people you care about the most.... Die around....."

Wait for the person you trust the most..... Throw you away too..."

Even.... Nail you to the ground with a sword .... Maybe you will understand.

"Is this your last defiance when you are dying?" These cursing words of yours will not shake me at all. Manfred turned and prepared to leave.

"You're dead, Tara."

The Tara people... You call me the Tara.

The golden particles lifted Mandra, and Mandra's left eye opened a slit and watched as golden light filled her.

Can I go to heaven too? That...... Wouldn't it be....

And them, with the Tara, with Killian for the last chance to get together... Are they all lost?

Mandra's body twisted, and she struggled to break away.

The blood flowing from her body rose into the air at this moment, and the particles of her broken skin also rose and floated beside her.

The lines cannot be seen, but He can know.

......

He should do this.
