In the middle of a dark world.

There is an obviously abnormal current on the calm black sea, and if there is a light now, you will notice that the color of this current is significantly different from the pale black around it.

The current is constantly swimming in a fast direction.

And in the darkness ahead, there seems to be a small island.

The current rushed straight towards the island, and then a stream of water rushed straight to the beach, so fast that he immediately dispersed like a pool of sea water when he washed ashore.

Submerged in the sand, and brought along the current, it was Arka and Shadetti.

"Ahem...... Vomit! ”

Arka coughed violently, spitting out a lot of seawater from his mouth.

Hoarse throat, breathing fresh air.

The same is true for Shadetti.

The two of them breathed hard after spitting, and then lay down weakly on the beach.

Arka lay on the beach, soothing his breath and regaining his strength.

But the mind was blank.

There were so many things going on that that he needed to take a break and sort out the situation.

Lucilia's soul flew out at some point, sitting on the beach next to her and looking at Arka without saying a word.

"Woo ......"

There was a sound of crying and choking next to him, which alarmed Arka, and he quickly got up.

An illuminating stone appeared in his hand, emitting light and dispelling the darkness around him.

Xia Daiti was lying wet on the beach, his right arm covering his eyes.

Tears were mixed with water stains on her body, but the grief made her unable to hold back her voice.

Arka didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

Andre's life and death are unknown, and Sang Ka Ka is even more unknown depending on the situation at the time, and the possibility of being alive is extremely low.

Hamor and Lipoka died in front of him, and with the destruction of the ship, the chances of the secondary members surviving were almost zero.

It was not easy for him to feel that he had integrated into this world, and he was not so strange and frightened by this world.

And all of this is because of myself.

Thinking of this, the originally blank brain couldn't help but be filled with grief.

He took a deep breath and pulled himself together to speak.

"The regimental commander may not be dead yet."

Hearing this, Xia Daiti couldn't help but sit up, choking and touching his tears.

I wiped the stains on my hands and various grains of sand on my face.

"You...... You say, really? ”

There was a hint of hope in his voice.

Arka nodded, soothing her emotions once more, and raised her head slightly.

Only then did he lower his voice and said, "I can see clearly, the man dressed as a pirate captain, I can see his face clearly. ”

Without waiting for Shadetti to speak, Arka continued, "He is none other than my father. ”

"Your father!"

Xia Daiti's voice, which had just stabilized her emotions, couldn't help but raise it, and she could even hear the anger in it, and she involuntarily grabbed Alka's arm.

pinched tightly, and there was even a hint of anger in his eyes.

The sudden message made him unable to control his anger and grief.

But even so, she endured it and did not take any further action, saying, "Didn't you say that your parents died when you were in your teens? ”

Arka nodded.

"Yes, I've always thought so."

"Do you know some of the peculiarities of the Golden Ears Island?"

Without waiting for Shadetti to answer, Arka said, "All the islanders of the island and the children born on the island will be blessed by the Stone Mother.

Their lives will manifest themselves on a stone, placed among the boulders of the Mother Stone on the island. ”

"When a stone cracks, it represents the loss of life."

"When I was 10 years old, my mother's stone cracked, and my father was not an indigenous to the island, he was an outsider."

"It's normal for some people on the island to marry or marry outsiders, it's not very rare, and there's no rule that it's not allowed."

With that, Arka turned his head to look at Shadetti.

At this time, Xia Daiti, who was originally a little excited, had already let go of his hand and calmed down his emotions.

Your own unwarranted anger won't solve any problems.

"Did I tell you why I joined the treasure hunt?"

Xia Daiti shook his head: "No." ”

"Just a month before I joined the treasure hunt, I found a treasure that has been circulating on our island for nearly 200 years."

Arka held out his left hand, the ring on his little finger dangling.

"This thing, along with my magic skills, is part of the treasure and gives me a formal introduction to the otherworld."

"But there, I found my mother's bones, yes...... She fell in front of the treasure, and she was also a descendant of its original owner. ”

"She was attacked from behind and died there."

At this time, Xia Daiti finally couldn't help it.

He asked, "So, your father did it?" ”

This is a very normal association and is easy to think of.

Arka held his head, his expression slightly pained, which came from his memory.

"I was suspicious of this at first, but later I denied it based on my father's behavior and personality in my memory."

He loved his wife so much, and the sweet affection between the two was such that the people of the island would envy him.

He would even secretly hide his private money, just to use it to buy some gifts for his mother to bring surprises. ”

"He does this a lot, he just acts like a thug and a reckless man to the outside, but he can control his emotions very well in the family."

"But ......"

At this, Arka closed her mouth in a flicker.

But now, the man appeared in front of him, and it was obvious that he was coming for himself.

The means used were so radical.

But why?

Arka couldn't figure it out at all, even if he did kill his mother and escape with the treasure.

After these 10 years, a powerful pirate group was formed, and even obtained a [treasure].

became a well-known big man in this world, although it was notorious.

But why did you come back at this time? Look for yourself at this time.

He couldn't figure it out at all.

Why?

Those shells aimed at themselves were rushing to kill themselves.

If you really want to kill yourself, wouldn't it be good to kill yourself at that time, but you have to wait until you grow up to kill yourself, why?

The subsequent action seemed to grab him.

Xia Daiti next to him listened to Arka's story, and then looked at Arka's face full of confusion and incomprehension at this time.

When she heard that the man was Arka's father, she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart.

But thinking of spending time with Arka during this time, and Arka telling it, she still believes in him very much.

"I don't know why, but my father seems to be trying to get me."

"But if we run away, the captain has a good chance of surviving, after all, it's a very tempting bait, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Xia Daiti also nodded.

Cheered up and got up from the sand, patted his buttocks, and then wiped the sand from his body and the tears that had been left behind.

Grief has passed, so now is the time to find a way to act.

"We have to find a way, find a way to find our father, and if he is still alive, we have to get him out."

Hearing Shadetti's words, Arka stood up.

Look at the pitch-black sea ahead, and the dark environment.

"Not only that, but we're going to have to make my father pay."

Arka himself doesn't have much emotion for this so-called father, and his good feelings for this so-called father come entirely from the filter brought by the memories in his mind.

Now the filter is completely broken.

The so-called emotions are naturally gone, and all that remains is anger and hatred.

"Arka ......"

When Shadetti heard this, he called out Arka, but he didn't know what to say.

Killing one's father is an unacceptable thing.

Arka looked at the position of his collarbone, where there was a tattoo that looked like fish scales.

It was exactly what Sanka had pressed on them before, and it ensured their breath in the water.

Let them escape safely.

Looking at Alka's movements, Shadetti couldn't help but look at his left shoulder, where there was also a tattoo of fish scales.

More hatred couldn't help but come to my heart.

I can only pray in my heart, praying that Sangka will escape, or that he will be caught as bait.

Seeing that Arka recovered, Lucilia, who had been beside her, also silently returned to her mirror.

The darkness around her was not quite suitable for her long stay, if not for the fear of Alka.

At this time, Arka looked at Xia Daiti and said, "Analyze the current situation. ”

"First of all, Gami and they are definitely safe, and when they fled, all the ships were attracted by us, and they had a good chance of taking advantage of the opportunity to escape."

Xia Daiti nodded, in this case, Jason Gami and Vanessa have a great chance of being safe.

This is good news for them.

Xia Daiti added, "They were already on the periphery at that time, and there was a good chance that the boat would be able to leave the Dark Domain safely if nothing happened at that time. ”

"They will definitely go to the church as soon as possible and inform the church about our situation because ......"

Speaking of which, Xia Daiti looked at the metal box next to him.

"Yes, that's right, under normal circumstances, they would have thought that the reason why the Prayer of the Dead is chasing us is because I am carrying this box."

Arka squatted down and patted the metal box in front of him, thought for a moment and asked, "Shadetti, do you know how to open it?" ”

Xia Daiti nodded, squatted down, and a faint holy light appeared on his hand and was printed on the box.

The chest opened in layers, revealing the blade inside, and then closed again.

"That's good, that's our strongest guarantee."

Arka who has used the Sword of Mercy knows its power well.

Not only to face those undead, but also to these villains.

This gives them the ability to resist when they are overtaken.

"Is it possible for us to leave the Dark Realm?" Xia Daiti couldn't help but ask.

If they can find a way out of the dark realm, they will be able to get to the church quickly, and they will be able to do more.

Arka shook his head, sighed and said, "I don't know why, but it's certain that my father definitely has a way to locate me, otherwise he wouldn't have just bumped into us in the Dark Domain and attacked us without hesitation." ”

The Dark Domain is already difficult to discern the direction, let alone chase and intercept the desired target in such a place.

It just happened to surround them, and it's hard to believe that it was a coincidence.

"He's your father, and he has countless ways to find you, even I know some of them."

At this time, Lucilia's voice came through the mirror.

"What are the ways?" Arka couldn't help but ask.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a hand touch his head.

"Are you alright? Who are you talking to? Xia Daiti looked at him with some concern.

She thought she had just been in the darkness too much, invaded by the dark elements.
