Lord Shadow

After a few hours suddenly Erika opens her eyes and sweat suddenly rushed down from her entire body.

Her eyes are bloodshot and she seems to be freaked out. But she managed to calm herself down almost immediately

But she is still not looking good. Antonius rushed to be beside her and tries to support her and ask her

‘Are you alright? Do you need your herbs?’ Erika shakes her head weakly and then said

‘I am hungry. Get me some food’

Antonius could only smile bitterly. He doesn’t like seeing her like this but he listens to her orders as he brought out some food from his storage bag and give it to Erika.

It is hot bread that he bought from some shop near London. She quickly swallowed it and slowly energy returns to her.

Her eyes are slowly healing itself and her eyes is no longer cloudy white and the clouds in her eyes has disappeared

As the night deepens, the stones around them glow in blue and Erika eyes shines. She got up startling Antonius.

‘Erika, what are you doing? You are still weak’ He thought that Erika will eat the fruit again. He doesn’t know what the fruit does but judging from Erika state after eating it, it seems it is able to amplify Erika foresight abilities.

It also takes a toll on her body. Antonius is eyeing the fruits with vigilant eyes worried that Erika will pushed herself again.

‘I must do this now’

She said as she brought out something form her storage bag. It is a parchment.

She opens the parchment and one could see the illustration of arrays inside it.

It is complex and seems to correspond to the same design of this circular ring formation of the Stonehenge.

Antonius didn’t know that Erika is talented in arrays formation. After all, it is not her class. She could always learn it but to create such array probably require prodigious talent.

Erika did not notice Antonius amazement.

Instead she brought out a knife and the slice her finger lightly as a drop of blood gently drips down to the illustration arrays inside the parchment.

The moment the blood falls down onto that parchment, a buzzing sound like a Song could be heard in Antonius and Erika ears.

Then the array floated up from the parchment paper and expanded as it masked the Stonehenge area and then falls down to the ground like it was layering it with protection.

The moment it merges with the ground and the Stonehenge area, the Song stopped.

And Erika could feel her energy was drained out of her as she almost tumbles down to the ground unconscious.

Antonius who was ready for this slide to Erika and catch her before she could fall down.

In a princess embrace she stares at Antonius face and smiles

‘My knight in shining armor’ she teased as she chuckles weakly.

‘Now….I need the herbs’ she said as she smiles. Antonius sighed.

‘How many times have I said to not push yourself this hard’ she only chuckles weakly listening to him

‘I’m serious’ he said

She nodded but Antonius knew that this girlfriend of his is very stubborn.

He set her down and spoon fed her the herbs and slowly after a few minutes Erika could feel herself gaining back her strength,

She could move her body now though it is still weak.

At least this time she did not experience instant aging like before.

She leans back on the tree as she took the spoon away from Antonius and slowly sipping the herbs concoctions herself now that she has enough energy.

Erika while chowing down on her herbs look at Antonius and could see from his expression that he clearly did not like what Erika was doing just a moment ago.

‘You must have many question’ she suddenly said looking at Antonius.

‘I do’

‘Then ask it’ she said. Antonius hesitated for a while but then he decided to ask something from her.

‘How did you get so talented in using arrays?’

‘That’s the question you wanted to ask?’

‘Like I said I have many questions. This is one of them’

She chuckles and then nodded.

‘The arrays huh? No, I am not talented’ she replies nonchalantly

‘Not talented?! Your array just masks our existence from the outside world. I might not be the Sensing type class like some people or have high cultivation but I am still a Seed Formation Middle Stage leveler. I could feel the moment that the array was set up our existence and our aura seems to be masked and even our physical appearance would be covered up. I bet anyone that is passing through the sky looking below will only see an empty area around here other than this large tree.’

She chuckles looking at Antonius reaction. She then added

‘The reason why I said I was not talented is because I don’t know anything g about arrays’ she said, no doubt trying to tease him again

Antonius sighed

‘Try to explain that to me in a way I could understand’

She smiles and then nodded and explain to him

‘This array is not actually crafted by me.’

‘What do you mean?’

‘Lee Sangmin crafted it for me’

‘The Arrays master?’

‘That’s the one’ Hearing this Antonius was shocked. They did not meet the Array master. From what he heard, he is in China, ruling a large area of China.

‘When did you meet him?’ he asked

‘A few months before Death Monarch escape from the Mountain of Everlasting Love. He need to know something and I need his expertise. It is a win-win situation for him and me so he created an array equation for me and I give him the answer he wants. He is a genius in arrays formation. I just need to use my blood to activate the array. I told him to craft a circular ring masking formation on the Stonehenge and he delivered’

It was then Antonius realized something after listening to Erika story.

‘You know we would come here even at that time?’ Antonius ask as his eyes look deep at Erika.

Erika only smiles, her eyes is as calm as ever

‘Any more questions?’ she asked

‘Why are we here?’ Antonius asked as he looked around him. All he could see is large standing stones, a large dark forest and no city around this area.

‘Ah, the million-dollar question’ she said and then she said as she closes her eyes

‘To wait. We are here to wait for someone.’ Antonius then knows this must have to do something with her vision.

Someone will come here. At least Antonius knows that much but since Erika did not tell who she is waiting for he will not ask.

Antonius then ask.

‘Will it be long?’

‘Don’t know really’ she replies

‘It could be a few months or a few years. But until he comes, I will wait here. Because he needs to see something and after that he needs to go somewhere else. And I am his guide.’

After saying that she did not say anything else as she took the last sip of her herb and lean back on the tree. Looking at Antonius she then said

‘Until then I will wait’ Then she closes her eyes as she drifted off into sleep.
