Chapter 43: Cowardice

The heat from Darius as he spoke reached the Shadowwalker's ears, and the hot sensation made her shudder slightly, "What's going on?" Darius, why do you think I did all this? “

"Do you still want to hide it? What a cunning woman. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Darius increased the force on his hand again, and Andrea's rapid breathing showed that the man had no idea what pity meant.

"I'm just a small person, and the most powerful enemy I've ever encountered in my life is just a little lizardman martial arts master, what is a feathered serpent? This is a creature as rare as a dragon in legend, how could such an existence come to my trouble? “

"I'm very self-aware, even if I offend such a powerful being, I have to be qualified to offend it! One doesn't care about the provocation of the ants at his feet, and neither I, nor my men, will have a chance to provoke such a creature, let alone get it to hunt it down. There's only one explanation, and it's coming for you, a shadow walker with whom only you can possibly relate. That's why I'm going to meet you who are hurting, because you've been hunted down. “

"It's just your guess!" Andrea's tone was also full of anger, and the anger that was suppressed by someone while she was injured made her uncontrollable, if it wasn't for being defenseless, if it wasn't for such a close distance, if it wasn't for her own weakness because of her injury, how could Darius restrain her?

"Really?" Darius continued to maintain this ambiguous posture, not because he wanted to take advantage, but because he was dealing with a shadow walker, even if it was an injured shadow walker, he could not let his guard down in the slightest.

The corners of Darius's mouth hooked, and his words were full of mockery: "It's true that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin, can you understand the meaning of this sentence?" “

Since Andrea had her back to him, he couldn't see the expression on the Shadow Walker's face at this time, but it didn't matter, he slowly raised his dagger-wielding left hand, and the sharp sword shone with cold light, all the way up her chest, and finally stopped at the center of her eyebrows.

"See? Lady? “

"See what? Your knives? Andrea said hatefully that anyone who was pointed at such a murder weapon would not say anything good.

Darius shook his wrist and removed the dagger that was close to her eyebrows, then placed the wrist holding the knife in front of Andrea's eyes, "See this bracelet?" Andrea? I can tell you that this is the Ring of Feathered Serpent, do you know what it represents? “

The metal knife face was like a mirror, reflecting Andrea's shocked expression in Darius's eyes.

"You killed it! How is this possible? “

Shadowwalker blurted out.

"It wasn't until it died, and when I saw this bracelet again, I didn't react, why did I encounter such a monster in the mountains of Ulstor, it is not a feathered serpent at all, but a derivative of magic summoned by someone, if it is a real feathered serpent, I will still wonder if it is taken as a prey, but since it was summoned by someone, it proves that it has its mission and mission."

"It's hunting you, Andrea! Am I right? “

Andrea fell silent, and Darius wondered if she was still looking for an excuse in her head, so he continued: "The Feathered Serpent is a terrifying beast, and a good hunter, who can soar through the sky and tirelessly search for targets, who is worth using such a presence to search?" The answer is clear, ma'am, only you, as a Shadowwalker, would make someone else do this. It's just a pity that I was so stupid to believe the lie you told about getting rid of the pursuers. “

Darius suddenly felt the lady in his arms go limp, due to her loose and tense body, and then he heard Andrea's voice become flat, "If it weren't for you holding me back, I would almost have been able to applaud you, you know?" You're the finest young man I've ever met. “

Being praised by a peer who is not much older in the tone of an elder praising a junior made Darius very uncomfortable, "Looks like you admit it, don't you?" “

"Yes, that's right, I'll admit it, the injuries I've had before, including the Feathered Serpent this time, are all the trouble I've gotten into, and then what? What do you want? Kill me? Andrea, who had admitted everything, seemed to be a different person, and her temperament instantly became unpredictable, and she took the initiative to lean herself in front of Darius, and then lifted her small head.

She looked at the man threatening her with a knife, and there was a provocation in his eyes, as if it was not her but Darius who was being restrained.

"Do you really think I don't dare kill you?" Darius shouted angrily, the woman was not ashamed, he increased the force on his hand, and the slender swan-like neck was bruised by his movements.

Andrea, who was facing death, actually laughed maniacally, "Come on, Darius...... Well...... Think, think about me, what I do, you dare, you dare to kill me, you cowardly ......"

Andrea was speechless, unable to breathe, and could only struggle in pain at the hands of Darius.

Darius only felt that countless voices were intertwining in his head, and bloodthirsty longing was spreading throughout him, and although he had experienced countless battles, it was the first time for him to take the life of a young human.

Kill her, kill her, as if the part of the soul that belongs to the original owner of the body is shouting madly, this is a shameless woman, you saved her, but she shamelessly betrayed you, betrayed the oath, such a woman deserves to die! Think about the experience of escaping from the mouth of the Feathered Serpent, countless brushes with death, countless escapes from death, all thanks to her. Kill her, kill her!

Watching this beautiful body gradually lose its vitality in his hands, the brilliance in his bright eyes began to dim, and the thrill of destruction that stifled the beautiful and fragile life made him want to stop.

"Ahh

As the killing intent was about to fill his body, the last shred of reason in Darius's mind finally prevailed, and he shouted vigorously, pushing away the Shadow Walker in his arms, and then sat down weakly, gasping for air.

Andrea, who had survived, lay on the bed, breathing rapidly, and neither of them spoke again for a while.

Darius looked at the woman in front of him and smiled bitterly, thinking that he had created an extremely tenacious will and nerves, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't kill decisively, and his heart was like a rock. The bottom line of human nature is still there, whether this is good or bad, Darius himself does not know.

Andrea, who had come to her senses, sat up with difficulty and looked at Darius with a complicated face.

"I once told you that your heart is not cruel enough, and even a little cowardly."

"Now it seems that it is."
