Raven's warm gaze was directed at the surrounding land that was dyed red as a hint of sadness filled her golden eyes.
A beautiful, yet sturdy, blindingly dark armour with sparkling streaks of gold along its sides was wrapped around her seemingly fragile yet elegant body, highlighting her young feminine curves and adding to her charm.
The armour was not the normal knight attire but instead consistent of a pair of thick knee-high boots, a short protective skirt that left her milky white thighs under the rcy of the harsh wind, a pair of thin yet sharp looking gauntlets with two delicately decorated arm guards attached to them, and finally, a beautiful chest plate piece that left a lot of the shadowy cloth wrapped around her tender skin visible to the onlookers.
On top of her shadow armour, a soft cloak was covering her shoulders and back as if she was trying to hide her body from others.
As a matter of fact, she would usually prefers so gender neutral clothing, such as shorts and hoodie, because of her rather special circumstances.
But since she was now preparing for war and gathering subordinates, Kayla had urged her to look more of a professional 'leading figure' than a rascal gangster.
*Sigh*
Giving a soft sigh after noticing the gazes of anticipation from others, Raven shook her head as if to clear her mind. The gesture was sneaky that no one noticed.
Although she had a lot on her mind and didn't exactly know what had happened here and did not want to jump into conclusions, she could not help but imagine seeing the sa bloody scene on Earth as the invasion takes place...
'Invasion?' Raven thought to herself, or rather scoffed at her own thoughts. 'It is more appropriate to call it eradication…'
The sad gaze she casted upon everyone seed to touch everyone's heart and warm them up as many of the fainted elves woke up and stared at her as if she was their saviour.
Although she had descended from the sky the sa way the evil daemon had, the warmth of her gaze made it clear that she was no evil presence like him.
No, she was a true angel in their eyes. Little did they know, this young mistress hates angels the most...
Noticing how the ground was filled with blood, Raven decided not to step on it. Instead, she solidified the mana under her feet and levitated midair.
To the others, it looked more like she was stepping on an invisible structure that they we're not qualified to set their eyes upon.
"Lady Raven…" Abbadon's voice grabbed Raven's attention as she noticed him kneeling on the ground in respect..
"Abbadon…" looking at him, his mistress instantly frowned.
Abbadon could feel his heart pounding against his chest. He closed his eyes, unwilling to look her in the eyes.
The elves who had woken up and the eight humans that were left, together with their hero, looked at the elegant newcor with a tense expression.
They had first thought she was going to help them. They had fallen for the sa twice! They both appeared the sa way; both descended from the sky with a flash of white! Why would they think she's on their side?
Her warmth? Her attractiveness? Her charm? Her kind expression?
They were all obviously fake!!
This newcor knew the na of the person that was threatening to destroy them! They were obviously working together!
Suddenly, everyone had the sa thought; we're done for!
Their terrified expressions said it all.
"Lady Raven," Abbadon said again in response to his Lady's call, his voice sounding grim.
!!!!!
Suddenly, as if a flash of lightning hit them all in the face, they flinched! They clearly heard it… this person… she is this person's mistress…
She was the person who had taught him to smile when threatening soone…
She was the person who had given him his terrifying power…
She… she was the person they were asked to submit to!
Now, they were truly done for!!
*Sigh*
"Why are you kneeling on the ground?" Raven asked with a sigh, her voice was calm and filled with concern. "It's filled with blood and gore. Look at your clothes now…"
She shook her head at her helpless subordinate who had ruined his luxurious clothing just so that he could kneel for her and show so respect…
While Raven was being considerate towards her subordinate, everyone else's expressions stiffened even more.
She wasn't concerned about the blood of their people.
She wasn't concerned about the corpses filling up the ground.
No, she cared about the evil person's luxurious clothing…
"Lady Raven," Abbadon could not help but swallow loudly after hearing his mistress' words. He could not help but feel even more guilt clogging his veins. "Lady Raven, I don't deserve your rcy, I have gone against your orders and taken a life!"
"Oh, you have?" She asked in surprise. She hadn't expected Abbadon to disobey her direct orders. But she knew sothing must have gone wrong.
Not waiting for him to explain, she approached him and touched his forehead.
"I'm going to read your mind, is that alright?" She asked softly.
"Of course, Lady Raven," Abbadon nodded politely. Still closing his eyes out of guilt. He absolutely did not want to see the disappointnt in Raven's captivating eyes.
"Oasis; Mind Link!"
Applying her skill, Raven was suddenly flooded with mories of what had taken place just a few minutes ago.
Emotions that weren't hers also made their way to her mind, making her instantly frown.
"Abbadon…" she could not help but gasp at the emotions of guilt and dread radiating from her loyal subordinate.
*Sigh*
"Abbadon, open your eyes," Raven's voice was soft and calm.
Even though Abbadon did not want to see his mistress' expression, he had no choice but to do as told.
To his surprise however, she was smiling warmly at him. Patting his silky and beautiful black hair, she opened her mouth to speak, but she instantly stopped after seeing the change in Abbadon's expression.
At first, his face looked sad and grim, yet it looked as pure as a newborn the mont their eyes t.
"It's alright," she chuckled softly. "I understand what happened. You did good, more or less."
She had an apologetic expression as she didn't want to fully complent him since he had killed a person. Yet, the simple act of shifting her attention towards those filthy humans made Raven's smile turn upside down.
Abbadon, who was captivated by his young mistress' beautiful face, could not help but shiver as he watched the change in her expression the mont she looked at the fake hero, Hoda.
"Hoda, was it?" Raven's voice was still soft, yet her expression indicated anger.
