Chương 298: Chapter 301 GGEZ [Edited]
Angelica Ainsworth was pulled into the shadow realm by Scathach.
She couldn't react in time, and that was very shameful. As she descended into the shadow realm, she pulled out her weapon that could banish the darkness. The blade gleamed with a faint, ethereal light. The shadow around her seemed to recoil at the sight of it.
Angelica, when she saw that the darkness didn't come closer to her, looked around in order to find the one who pulled her inside the shadow realm.
"I know that you are here. Show yourself before me, and I shall consider sparing your life."
Angelica spoke with a commanding tone, her voice echoing through the shadowy abyss. She gripped her weapon tightly, ready to face whoever dared to challenge her.
Angelica didn't need to wait long before a figure emerged from the darkness. The mysterious being stepped forward, their features obscured by a cloak of shadows.
"Oh my, such a confident woman."
Angelica looked at the shadow figure. She knew immediately who it was.
"You are... the queen of the shadow realm, Scathach. Why are you doing this?"
Angelica couldn't help but ask her. She didn't remember encountering her before. And this was the first time she had come to this world.
Scathach's eyes glinted with amusement as she replied.
"Well, I can't let you destroy my home, can't I?"
"You lived in an apartment?"
Angelica was more surprised that Scathach lived in an apartment than why she pulled her into the shadow realm.
"Is it really that surprising?"
Scathach chuckled.
"And to tell you the truth, it's not mine, but it belongs to my master's younger sister. And if you insist on attacking it and using even more powerful treasures, you might be killed by my overprotective master."
Scathach warned, her tone turning serious.
"So I suggest you go back to your world. And forget about the holy grail."
Angelica narrowed her eyes. She didn't appreciate being threatened. Her blade gleamed in bright golden light.
"You think you can scare me away with empty threats? Even though you are the queen of the shadow realm, I am Angelica Ainsworth, the heir of the prestigious Ainsworth family. I will not back down so easily. The holy grail is my birthright, and I will do whatever it takes to claim it."
And it was at this moment that she felt another powerful being appear before her. The air crackled with energy as a figure emerged from the shadows, radiating an aura of immense power. Angelica felt suffocated by the overwhelming presence, but she stood her ground.
"This isn't right. She isn't a doll."
The powerful being that had appeared before Angelica spoke with a voice that sent shivers down her spine.
"What do you mean, I am not a doll?"
Angelica gritted her teeth. She didn't know who this powerful being was, but what he said struck a nerve. No one dares insult her like that.
"She is good, isn't she? Even though she isn't a doll, she could still control Gilgamesh's ego."
The powerful being looked at her from top to bottom. She felt like he could see right through her, as if he knew every thought and emotion she had. It was unnerving, but Angelica refused to back down. She squared her shoulders and met his gaze head-on.
"So fierce, yet so fragile."
The powerful being commented with a smirk.
"But don't worry, I have no intention of underestimating you."
Angelica was ready for a fight, but before she could do anything, the powerful being tabbed her forehead. He wasn't fast, but for some reason, she could not dodge his move. He then pulled something out of her.
"How..."
It was a Gilgamesh card. She then lost her power and collapsed to the ground. The powerful being stood over her with a triumphant grin on his face.
"GGEZ"
"Y-You... give it back to me. "
Angelica's personality shifted from confident to desperate. This must be her true personality.
The powerful being, or Sullivan, looked at her, and he felt like he was a bastard but he still didn't give it back to her.
He checked the card and then kept it in guild storage. It should be a benefit for his Guild Members.
"Sorry, but I will not give it back to you. You come to this world to bring Miyu back and use her as holy grail. As a part of Angel, I won't accept such a selfish and cruel act. "
Sullivan stated firmly.
"Miyu deserves to be free and live her own life, not be used as a tool for someone else's desires."
Hearing that, it was like throwing cold water on her.
"And what about me! What about my desires and dreams? Am I not allowed to pursue happiness and fulfillment, too? Why are you helping her but not me!"
Sullivan's words struck a chord within her, causing her to yell at him without thinking.
Sullivan's eyes glowed as he looked at her soul. She still didn't commit any great sin yet, and her soul was of a gentle woman. She might be forced into doing something against her own desires, but deep down, she knew she deserved happiness just as much as anyone else.
'What a mess up plot...'
Sullivan sighed. He didn't know how many AU he had faced since coming to Ai's world, but as it was the way of his guild to give salvation to those who deserve it. He should help her in this case.
