Night World Players

Chapter 274 Welcome Back, My King Consort

The darkness that stretched across the entire sky, like a deep dome, suddenly vanished.

Instead, there was a beam of light...

That intense yet clear starlight pierced through the night sky and illuminated the heavens.

The sound disappeared.

The colors disappeared immediately afterward.

The world became silent, with only the gushing hot starlight remaining.

The surging light stirred up countless vortexes, swallowing up the deepest darkness, along with the three slowly emerging figures of the tomb guardian angels in the night sky.

This is the true name that has been liberated again after a thousand years, the majestic light of the Holy Sword.

It once illuminated the darkness of a chaotic world that was deeper than the night.

It has survived the changing of several eras without decaying, and endured countless battles without being defeated.

This glory has solidified over the long years and can be called a crystallization of miracles.

Even at this moment, the one holding the holy sword in the distant sky is not the holy sword wielder named Hiltina... but the radiance she exudes is no less than that of the original owner.

They didn't even have time to put up the slightest resistance.

The angel from the tomb guardian had barely broken free from the seal of the eternal night when it was annihilated by the torrent of light.

……

Whether it's the magnificent architecture within the palace complex, or the land itself...

Everything was connected and swallowed up, heading towards the distant other side of the night sky.

Then, explode.

The mark of light was imprinted on the sky, turning the entire night sky of the secondary dimension crimson.

Followed by.

From a distant direction...

The storm, arriving a little later, reached the very center of the palace, scattering the rain clouds, shaking the houses, overturning the forests, shaking the earth, and sweeping across the land.

After that.

All that remains are the beautiful, reappearing moon and the boundless starry sky.

……

Ding--

With a crisp sound, the dazzling holy sword in the night sky dimmed its light and fell from the sky.

Then, it landed lightly back in Hiltina's hand.

This was originally her weapon, but because the Gravekeeper had previously used a special relic to seal the connection between the secondary dimension and the present world, Hiltina temporarily lost control of the holy sword.

At this very moment, the angel who was the instigator fell, and this secondary dimension was once again connected with the present world.

The holy sword, which had been briefly borrowed by Rast, naturally returned to its master's hands.

However, at this moment, Hiltina did not pay any attention to the holy sword in her hand.

She simply looked up calmly.

Then, he watched as the boy slowly descended from the night sky and finally stood before him.

The night wind howled, ruffling his dark, tousled hair.

In the hazy moonlight, the boy's profile was clearly defined and deep.

"And now..."

"What time is it now?"

Last's voice rang in Hiltina's ears.

Tranquil and timeless, yet seemingly transcending countless years.

Upon hearing that voice, Hiltina felt a moment of disorientation.

These words sound so familiar.

Many years ago, before she had wielded the Holy Sword and become the Empress of the Empire, and before Rast had even stepped into the world of the extraordinary, when both of them were still green and inexperienced, she had heard a similar conversation.

However, it wasn't Rust who asked that question back then, but Hiltina herself.

At this moment, time seemed to flow backward. Everything returned to the night world, back to the echoing history of "Deep Blue Harbor," where Hiltina and Rust first met.

It also takes us back to the night before the end of Deep Blue Harbor, the night when the two of them drifted together in the cold sea, relying on each other.

In the distance is the port area detonated by a time bomb. Tens of thousands of tons of gunpowder ignited the entire Deep Blue Harbor, and the fire winds, dozens of meters high, looked like a rising sun from afar.

The black-haired, black-eyed boy stood in the sunrise-like firelight, with the shimmering water beside him, clear and incomparably beautiful.

The city reflected in his eyes resembled a hazy, yellowish sea of ​​stars.

"9:05."

Hiltina spoke softly, her voice swallowed by the raging storm.

Beside her, the ruined palace was illuminated by the light. Although only broken walls and ruins remained after the angels' battle, these broken ruins were now so magnificent and solemn, like an ancient temple.

"Just like the assessment you gave me when I was at DeepBlueport."

Hiltina stepped forward and whispered in Rust's ear.

Then, she spoke in a very soft voice, almost as if whispering in Last's ear.

"The 0.5 points deducted..."

"I was also afraid you'd get too proud."

"Proud to the point of being carried away...and then going out to flirt with other women."

Hiltina's answer brought a wry smile to Last's face.

This is a self-evident fact.

Since he and Hiltina had not yet officially confirmed their relationship, some things were naturally not a big deal.

But now, things are completely different.

Last cleared his throat, about to say something to defend himself.

But the next moment, a slender finger gently touched his forehead.

"No explanation is needed."

“We were not engaged before, and I am not your fiancée, so I have no right to control your interactions with other women.”

“Senior Akshia, Ai and the others... your bonds all started before this, I won’t make things difficult for you.”

"However—from now on..."

Hiltina gazed into Rust's eyes with her light brown eyes and said, "You're not allowed to go flirting with other women anymore."

"No philandering allowed."

"Besides the men around you now, you are absolutely not allowed to get involved with any other women."

The voice fell.

Without waiting for Rust's reply, Hiltina gracefully took a step back.

Immediately afterwards, the serious expression that she had been deliberately putting on on her fair and delicate face faded away.

Instead, a smile of undisguised joy rippled from her light brown eyes.

"After all, from this day forward..."

"You are my fiancé."

She gently raised her head and closed her eyes.

Then, she slightly raised her toes.

"So--"

"Welcome back, my husband."

Along with Hiltina's words, echoing in the night, was the gradually spreading moisture and warmth from Last's lips.

The girl's lips were soft, with a cool touch.

The entire sub-dimension was silent, with only a gentle breeze lingering among the ruins.

It was like a lament, a story told to two people who had been separated for a long time...

My heartfelt blessings.
