Ark Undead

"Speaking of which, I'm craving some fried fish from a place on Wilt Street. How about we go eat there the day after tomorrow? It's on me."

The Undead picked up his top hat and put it on his head.

Then he spoke.

"I'm leaving tomorrow."

"Walk?"

Skyfire sensed the meaning behind the Undead's words. The fireball in her hand vanished instantly, and she turned to look at the Undead.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Longmen."

The Undead straightened his clothes, then looked up at the heavenly fire before him.

"I don't know if I'll ever come back."

As a teacher, he looked at the disciple who had inherited part of his life energy, and there seemed to be some reluctance in the flames in his chest.

This is the unique aspect of the lineage of sorcerers: the separated flames of sorcery will not completely sever their connection.

The bond between disciple and teacher grows stronger through the shared flame of magical arts. The longer they spend together, the deeper their bond becomes, just like that of family.

"After I'm gone, you must practice your spells diligently."

He wanted to say something else, such as reiterating just how dangerous flames are, to warn people against letting their guard down.

But considering that he had said it countless times in the past seven days, the Undead kept his mouth shut.

Forget it, Tianhuo is already outstanding enough, and she has suffered enough herself, so there's no need for more.

Tianhuo's expression remained calm. She nodded, opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"..."

She wanted to speak up and keep this friend...teacher.

But she also knew that the warrior knights could not stay in one place.

The Undead never truly belonged to Victoria; his mind never lingered in one place for long.

He is more like a wandering soul without a homeland, constantly searching for the meaning of his existence.

He had no worries whatsoever, nor was he concerned about his future.

"Then, have a safe journey."

Heavenly Fire spoke only when the immortals were almost gone.

After struggling for a long time, Tianhuo could only manage to utter this one sentence.

The Undead nodded, turned his gaze away from Tianhuo's face, and then pushed open the door.

Just as he was closing the door, Tianhuo rushed out and spoke to the Undead.

"Tomorrow! I'll come to take you tomorrow! You have to wait for me!"

The beautiful woman stared with her orange eyes and spoke forcefully to the undead.

"If you dare to run away before you see me, I won't pay you your salary!"

If she hadn't said it, even the dead would have forgotten.

So I actually get a salary!

Thinking of this, the Undead nodded.

"I see."

...

Early the next morning, the Undead stared at the campfire in front of him, still pondering his next move.

Kroos loved to sleep with the Undead, and according to her, it felt very comfortable.

The Undead simply took off his gauntlets and threw them to her.

Let her sleep while hugging her gauntlet, just like a dog sleeps sweetly while hugging a bone.

Kroos was fearless, and over the past few days, he had almost left teeth marks on the Undead's gauntlets.

Is this a baby losing their baby teeth?

That doesn't make sense either; Kroos's body should already be fully developed...

As the Undead was pondering this matter, a knock came from behind him.

It was Vina and Hannah who came to see the Undead off and to help him pack his belongings for his departure.

The two were quite emotional when talking about the departure of the undead.

The immortal didn't stay for more than a month after returning; he had to leave immediately.

During this time, Vina was also busy dealing with party affairs and didn't have time to chat much with the Undead.

They've never even fought each other; Vina has never been on Glasgow's side.

We can only leave this for another time; there will always be another opportunity.

Vina and Hannah brought a large package to the Undead.

According to the two, most of the food inside was Kroos's favorite food.

The rest are clothes and some small items that might be useful.

As for money, Vina and Hannah didn't give it to the Undead, and the Undead wouldn't take their money either.

Their friendships always began with transactions. Although every transaction was meticulously accounted for, the interactions that arose during this process transformed into personal relationships and worldly wisdom.

Even if neither of us owes the other anything, we're already very good friends.

As for that guy, Kroos.

Vina and Hannah treated her like a younger sister.

After all, Kroos is cute and has a lively and cheerful personality.

Aside from being able to eat a little and being a little slow-witted, he has no other problems.

Rather, Vina and Hannah see this as something cute.

As the two were explaining things to the immortal, another person arrived at the door.

It's the Xisha Islands.

Xisha brought two people and a card to the Undead.

The card was given to the Undead by SilverAsh, and the universal currency stored inside was LMD.

SilverAsh and Horn had left Victoria five days ago to take care of other matters, and it was SilverAsh's regret that he couldn't see the Undead off.

But at least he conveyed his feelings.

"Once you're all packed up, you can go out. The Penguin Logistics people are already waiting outside."

Xisha left the house first and went outside to wait.

After the Undead put on the gauntlets, they helped Kroos wash up.

He then pulled out the longsword that had been stuck in the campfire, hung it on his waist, and extinguished the campfire in front of him with a wave of his hand.

"This is the key."

The Undead gave the key to Vina and Hannah, asking them to keep it safe.

"As long as we are in Victoria, this house will not be sold to anyone else."

Vina smiled and assured the immortal.

This monarch of Aslan was nothing more than a little girl in the presence of the undead.

"Yes, thank you."

The Undead nodded, then left the room with Ceobe.

Right outside the house of the Undead, an off-road vehicle that had been reinforced several times was parked there, with two girls standing next to it.

The girl with short red hair had a halo above her head, while the other girl had long dark blue hair and was holding a lit cigarette, leaning against the car.

Seeing her employer come out, the girl with long, dark blue hair stubbed out her cigarette in the ashtray she carried with her and then put it away.

The girl with short red hair next to her stared at her with wide eyes, walking briskly.

"Are you the cargo we're transporting this time?"

She stretched out her right hand with a grin.

The undead extended his right hand, which was covered in gauntlets, and touched it with her.

“My name is Exusiai, and that aloof Lupo over there is Texas. They're part of the team escorting this cargo!”

The Undead nodded and spoke briefly to her.

"Immortal."

Little Ke next to him raised his hand and shouted stupidly.

"Keopatra! My name is Keopatra!"

Exusiai nodded with a smile, and then said.

"War Knight, I do know such a famous person."

After saying that, Exusiai turned around and went to the vehicle, opening the trunk.

"You can put the stuff in the back. Boss, as long as you're ready, we can set off anytime!"

Just as the Undead was about to say something, a deep red sedan drove up from the alleyway.

The car stopped in front of the Undead's house, and a brown-haired Felin woman got out.

It is heavenly fire.

The Undead waved to Exusiai beside him, telling her to wait a moment.

Exusiai smiled and gave an OK sign, then ran back and leaned against the car, waiting quietly with Texas.
