Breakers Chapter 138:

Chapter 138 – Chapter 25: Opening

In-gong’s mind was blank . Before it recovered, In-gong was already crossing the air on White Eagle .  

The wind blew around him, and just like the saying, he flew faster than the wind .  

Maybe he was too hasty . In-gong felt anxious after seeing the Tears of a Dark Elf, but it was just the light which had been lost . There was a possibility that one of its feature was simply broken .  

However, he couldn’t not consider it . Felicia was far away, so it was better for him to waste time going there, than to delay . No, it was better for In-gong to go there in vain, than for Felicia to be in a crisis .  

In-gong didn’t inform Vandal . He simply shouted to Carack that Felicia was in danger .  

The distance between the fourth base and Takar was considerable . If he marched in the normal manner, it would take around four days . Even if it was a hard march, it would take two days .  However, that speed was when he was moving with soldiers .  

In-gong didn’t have anyone with him . Moreover, he was pouring his power into White Eagle; the magic from the dragon heart increased White Eagle’s speed .  If he maintained this speed, he would be able to reach Takar in a few hours . It was tremendous speed .  

However, In-gong felt impatient . He needed too much time . A few hours was too long .  

‘A little bit faster, a little bit faster!’ 

Aura was added to the magic power, while White Eagle moved in the darkness .  

 

& 

 

The Famine Knight entered the ruin . Smoke filled the passageway . The dim light from the ceiling faded, and the faint scent of magic power disappeared completely .  

The Famine Knight felt a funny sense of nostalgia at the scent . He remembered things from 1,000 years ago and 10,000 years ago . It felt like just yesterday that he was walking through this ruin .  

Gerard’s memory also recognized the Black Flame Dragon, the treasure of the dark elves . However, he had spent 20 years in the lycanthrope prison . Therefore, he didn’t know the current owner of the Black Flame Dragon . He just guessed that it was one of the kings of the dark elves .  

It didn’t matter if the owner was someone Gerard knew or if they were from a new generation . In the first place, the encounter with the dark elves was a coincidence . His purpose was on the lowest floor .  

Of course, he didn’t plan to miss it . The magic power flowing through the royal dark elves were like a light wine .  

The Famine Knight didn’t rush . He advanced while devouring the ruin’s magic power .  

 

& 

 

Felicia looked up at the ceiling . The light from the ceiling shone again . However, it was fainter than before and blinked occasionally . Something strange had obviously occurred .  

Felicia thought about it as calmly as possible . The sudden change was due to something they had done or an external factor .  

Nothing had happened when their group came to the fourth floor, and they hadn’t touched anything .  Therefore, there must be an external factor . She wondered what had happened . What was this unbearably ominous feeling? 

Felicia grasped Silvan’s hand . It was a firm hand without any shaking .

Silvan smiled at Felicia before looking up at the ceiling . No, he seemed to be looking beyond it .  

There was a problem above ground, not underground . It was a hunch, but he also had some evidence to prove it . Silvan stared down at his arm . He had a magic device to track the location of the Black Flame Dragon . The arrow of light inside the gem was supposed to point toward the place where the Black Flame Dragon was, however, there was currently no light . If so, it was either one of two options: 

The Black Flame Dragon had been destroyed, or his connection was blocked .  

Silvan thought about the crew members of the Black Flame Dragon . Either way, it was highly likely something abnormal had happened to his crew members .  Normally, Silvan would already be climbing the stairs up to the ground . However, Felicia was in this place . That fact made him calm .  

“It is approaching . ” 

Silvan said quickly . He felt something ominous approaching in the darkness .  

Felicia breathed roughly . Although Silvan was relatively ignorant about magic, he was still a prince of the dark elves . He instinctively noticed that the scent of magic power was changing . The spirits around them were scared .  

Silvan watched the stairs . Instead of raising his aura, he took Felicia’s hand again, and he deliberately gave an exaggerated smile .  

“Don’t worry . I, your Oppa, is here . ” 

Felicia laughed awkwardly . She swallowed her dry saliva repeatedly and called upon the wind spirit .  

Right now, she didn’t want to go to the floors above, so she sent the wind spirit up .  

 

& 

 

The ruin of the indigenous species boasted a vast size . The ruin, which started in the forest of Karamis, reached the Great Desert .  

The Famine Knight crossed the first floor . He didn’t leave anything behind in the place he passed . The ceiling was depleted of magic power and lost its light, making the passage go dark .  

He felt wind coming from in front of him . The Famine Knight laughed happily . This was because it wasn’t a natural wind .  

The Famine Knight lifted a hand, and the hungry power of Famine didn’t let the wind blow .  

 

& 

 

The wind spirit had been extinguished . The presence was still coming closer .  

It was clear that there was an external problem . Felicia took a deep breath . The spirit had vanished and horror filled her chest .  

Silvan looked around . The passage on the fourth floor was rather large because the size of the ruin grew every time they descended a floor . The height of the ceiling seemed to be approximately six to seven meters .  

Silvan made a decision . Instead of going to meet the enemy, he decided to wait . The ruin was vast . Considering the speed at which the ominous presence was approaching, it would take a considerable amount of time to reach this place .  

“Felicia . ” 

Silvan called out with an affectionate voice . Felicia straightened and nodded . The two people didn’t say anything, but they had reached the same conclusion .  

A battle of waiting was the specialty of a magician . She would convert the fourth floor’s stairs into a trap .  

The ceiling light became weaker . The ominous presence was now much closer .  

 

& 

 

Time passed . It was too slow for some people and too fast for others .  

Felicia swallowed her saliva . The ominous presence was like a snake that tightened around her neck . Her breathing was rough as she looked at the magic she had prepared . The stairs to the fourth floor was now a magical fortress .  

She wondered how much time had passed . Her back was moist with sweat . It was clear that at least one hour had passed, maybe even more .  

Felicia closed her eyes tightly and restored her breathing . She had been with Shutra for several months and experienced many things, but she had never been so nervous . As time went by, it seemed like she would die .  

“It is coming . ” 

Silvan said quickly . Felicia quickly opened her eyes and stepped back in dismay . Sepira and Delia stood on either side of Felicia, while the five crew members took out their weapons and watched the stairs .  

Silvan pulled out Amita’s sword as well . His aura glowed as he stared at the ceiling . It was obvious the presence was on the third flood .  

Now, it was coming down . This was the moment they would face the ominous presence .  

Everyone stared at the stairs . The presence was approaching them . Silvan shouted . His shout was like a thunderbolt as he stared at the ceiling .  

“Avoid it!” 

Kwa kwa kwa kwang! 

The loud explosion swallowed up Silvan’s cry . The ceiling collapsed and rocks hit the floor .  

Delia grabbed Felicia’s waist and pulled her back . Sepira turned hurriedly toward the sound . Something was seen in the darkness .  

It spread like a mist . At the same time, the dark spirit at the center moved like lightning . He naturally twisted the neck of a crew member who had been knocked down by a rock .  

The crew member couldn’t even scream . He dried up without a sound . Then the heart of the second crew member was crushed . Silvan triggered his aura while Felicia screamed .  

“Gerard!” 

He was the one Felicia had seen in the lycanthrope territory . The one who had forced Chris and Caitlin, as well as Shutra, to the brink of death! 

The Famine Knight, formerly called Gerard, smiled . The black energy surrounding his body absorbed the magic power of the ruin . The ceiling lost its light, and the floor was deprived of its vitality . It was dry and cracked just because the Famine Knight was standing on it . The ceiling the Famine Knight destroyed was turned to dust .  

The Famine Knight kicked off from the ground, with the explosive movement distinctive to Divine Beast Authority . The passage was wide, but the distance between them narrowed, and the Famine Knight arrived in front of Sepira .  

Sepira swung her sword reflexively . The Famine Knight moved along the trajectory of Sepira’s sword, then he turned and grabbed Sepira’s wrist .  

‘Drain . ’ 

The moment the Famine Knight ordered it, Sepira’s wrist disappeared . At the same time, Silvan wielded his sword . He cut Sepira’s arm off cleanly .  

Sepira groaned from the sharp pain . Blood spurted from Sepira’s arm, while the cut wrist held by the Famine Knight dried up and became dust .  

The Famine Knight laughed .  

Did Silvan see it? Or did he just feel it? 

Either way, Silvan’s aura exploded . It was an act to create a gap . Silvan pushed Sepira away with his feet and watched the Famine Knight . He wielded his sword once again .  It cut through the atmosphere sharply .  

The Famine Knight moved backward smoothly like he was sliding over the ground . Gerard’s memories revealed that Silvan was as strong as Chris .  Therefore, he felt pleased . He pushed off from the ground while using the power of Famine! 

“Silvan!” 

Felicia screamed desperately . Silvan triggered aura around his whole body, and the aura barrier opposed the power of Famine . Once again, Silvan’s sword moved like lightning .  

It was fast and accurate .  

However, Gerard was extremely strong . He was once the strongest among the lycanthropes, and he read all of Silvan’s movements . Almost all the sword trajectories were crushed before they even started .  

Silvan was gasping for air . In order to stop the power of Famine, he continued pouring aura into his aura barrier . It seemed like his aura would be depleted before his stamina .  

“Captain!” 

The remaining three crew members rushed in at the same time . Silvan wanted to tell them not to come, but he was out of breath . He had barely squeezed out his voice when a thunderous sound was heard .  

Kwang kwang kwang! 

There were three roars, and the hearts of the three crew members were crushed . Their bodies fell to the ground, and their remaining health was lost to the power of Famine .  

Silvan let out a loud sound . He was lost in his rage for a moment, then the Famine Knight’s palm reached Silvan’s chest . It wasn’t a simple attack .  

Arang— 

A technique of Divine Beast Authority which destroyed the enemy from the inside .  

Aura exploded inside Silvan’s body, and the blue aura protecting Silvan’s body became faint .  

Silvan was thrown into the air, then he crashed down to the ground, coughing up blood .  

The Famine Knight admired Silvan . He had a remarkably disciplined body . While the lycanthropes were unmatched in toughness, the fragile elves shouldn’t be able to endure Arang with their bodies .  

The Famine Knight stared at Silvan with fascinated eyes . Silvan coughed up blood again but somehow managed to stand up .  

Sepira ran up to Silvan . At the same time, Felicia moved . She couldn’t watch anymore .  

She poured all the magic she had set up on the stairs onto the Famine Knight . The Famine Knight felt the flow of magic power . With the power of Famine which swallowed everything, he set up a barrier and walked between the flow .  

The black darkness broke through the dazzling magic light, and the power of Famine devoured the magic . He twisted the trajectory of the magic .  

It only took a few seconds .  

The Famine Knight escaped from the magic and stood before Felicia . Delia invoked dozens of red lights from Amita’s armour and created a force field . Amita’s armour was fine, but Delia wasn’t . It felt like she had been hit by a dump truck .  

The Famine Knight looked at Felicia, then Gerard remembered .  

She was the woman who had been with the Conquest Knight .  

Was it coincidental or inevitable? 

The Famine Knight reached out his hand .  

 

& 

 

Felicia waved her hand reflexively . It was a struggle to say anything . In the first place, she wasn’t a match for this opponent . The Famine Knight avoided Felicia’s attack like it was a joke and touched Felicia’s chest . It looked like a very mild blow, but it wasn’t . The armour Felicia wore took the blow and distorted . Due to her chest piece being crushed, Felicia had trouble breathing .  

The Famine Knight touched Felicia’s cheek . Rather than draining her with the power of Famine, he wanted to tear her apart .  

It would be good to throw her decapitated head to the hateful Conquest Knight .  

The Famine Knight kicked Felicia’s abdomen once again, and Felicia made a hissing sound . She was barely able to maintain consciousness, so it was impossible for her to cast a spell .  

Silvan raised his body . The Famine Knight spread out the power of Famine to provoke them .  

Everyone moved as they thought of Famine . Sepira moved to save Delia just before the power of Famine reached her . Despite still coughing up blood, Silvan jumped in front of the power of Famine and defended using his aura . He then used the shortest distance to reach Felicia .  

The Famine Knight had expected it and stretched out a hand toward the expected orbit . Silvan twisted his body desperately but couldn’t flee perfectly . The Famine Knight struck Silvan’s waist, and his aura was removed . Then the power of Famine rushed like a vulture toward Silvan .  

However, Silvan pushed against the ground . He broke through the power of Famine and reached Felicia .  

Felicia gasped as she looked at Silvan, but Silvan smiled at Felicia . He smiled despite the **** state of his body .  

‘No . ’ 

Sepira thought as she held Delia .  

It was the same for Felicia . Even though she couldn’t breath properly, she tried to somehow speak .  

‘No, you can’t do that .  There must be another way . There had to be something more!’ 

However, Silvan didn’t listen . It was unreasonable . His flow of aura was ruined by Arang, and there wasn’t enough time to correct the aura . At this very moment, the power of Famine was stretching toward him and Felicia .  

So, this was the only way . No other way existed .  

Silvan reached out to Felicia’s forehead and invoked a hidden magic spell . He forcefully got her permission to act in the state of emergency .  

The Famine Knight only cared about Felicia, so Silvan couldn’t wait any longer and reached out a hand . However, Gerard remembered something, and he ordered the Famine Knight to retreat straight away .  

‘Why?’ 

‘What was the reason?’ 

Questions were created . During that time, Felicia screamed . Silvan smiled at Felicia as he raised a hand to his right eye .  

Gerard’s warning reached its peak, and the Famine Knight strengthened the power of Famine reflexively . Sepira and Delia cried out Silvan’s name .  

At that moment, tears flowed down endlessly from Felicia’s eyes .  

Silvan took off his eyepatch .  

He opened up the power of the fairy .
