Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

Ramalen seemed to enjoy talking to the two young Sarkaz, Shining and Nightingale, but most of the topics they talked about were related to Roy. She probably wanted to know more about Roy.

Nightingale gradually relaxed her restraint during the conversation with Lamaren, and gradually became willing to share some things about herself. In the process, she found that the master of the Banshee King's Court was not as majestic and cold as she had imagined, but very approachable.

Shining noticed Roy leaning against the railing alone to enjoy the cool breeze, and quietly approached him.

Roy, who was in a daze, suddenly felt something leaning on his shoulder. He turned his head slightly and saw that it was Shining's face, which was a little red due to the wind.

"What's wrong? Shining..." Roy skillfully grabbed Shining's warm and soft hand and played with it carefully.

"Nothing, just a thought. If there were no war, it would be nice to take a trip like this occasionally." Shining's brown eyes looked towards the withered woods in the distance, where feathered beasts often flew into the sky in groups out of search of food.

"This is not a difficult task for us. By the way, Shining, there is something I forgot to discuss with you..." Roy glanced at the necklace hanging on Shining's chest unintentionally, and inexplicably thought of the leader of the pardoners.

"what's up?"

"After ending the war with Victoria, I want to go deeper into Victoria to deal with the pardoner who escaped from my spell. I have already sensed the aura of the spell left on him."

Roy knew that Quesatusta was in some sense the father of Shining. Although Shining seemed to be full of disgust, Roy still felt that he should exchange ideas with Shining before attacking him.

"..." Shining was silent. She didn't know how to explain to Roy the complicated situation within the Absolver, including the relationship between her "father" and herself.

But she knew that all this would eventually come to an end, and even if Roy didn't intervene, she would still go find that "father". After all, what he left in Nightingale was not only the neurochemical toxins that made her lower limbs unable to move freely, but also the ancient witchcraft heritage.

Now that Nightingale's Originium disease has been cured, she only has one last step left to completely break free from the shackles of the past. Shining will use the sword in her hand to help her cut open the cage.

"If you want to go, take me and Nightingale with you." Shining leaned on Roy completely, with a rare sense of weakness on her face. She always gave people the impression of being strong and calm, but now that she had her own support, she might be able to let go of some of her inner burdens.

"Okay." Roy knew the reason and didn't ask too many questions. He just slowly held Shining's hand.

......

The sun always sets early in winter. Before Roy and his companions had been on the upper deck for long, the sky was already covered with blood-red sunset glow. As night was about to fall, Roy and his companions said goodbye to Lamaren and prepared to return to their dormitories.

Before leaving, Lamaren gently took Nightingale's hand and kissed the back of her hand, making Nightingale blush and completely at a loss.

Ramalen told Nightingale that this kiss was full of witch magic and would bring her happiness and good luck. Nightingale accepted the gift with great joy. She wanted to give a gift in return, but she didn't have anything to give as a gift.

Ramaleen joked that Nightingale should give Roy to her as a gift. Upon hearing this, Nightingale hurried forward, hugged Roy's arm tightly, and rejected her ruthlessly.

This caused Lamaren to cover her mouth and laugh, and she quickly said that he was just teasing her.

When Roy heard that Lamaren had feelings for him, he felt something was wrong. Although Lamaren was a mysterious and beautiful mature woman, she was already the mother of Logos. If she was unmarried, he might try to pursue her.

It is not advisable to be a thief, but this is Terra... If she really wants to, it would be a bad idea...

Before Roy could come to his senses about whether or not to become a thief, Lamaren bowed slightly to him, lifted her long skirt, and walked away with elegant steps.

Seeing this, Roy had to temporarily suppress these strange thoughts and, with the help of the last bit of sunlight, he set out on the road back to the dormitory.

......

The boundary between Kazdel and Rembit was determined by the defense range of the Scavenger King's Court. The vast wilderness here was barren due to frequent natural disasters, so Rembit simply didn't care about it and let the Sarkaz divide it however they wanted.

Normally, there are very few transport vehicles passing through this area because of the fear of being looted by Sarkaz mercenaries who appear out of nowhere. However, at this time, a huge fleet consisting of high-speed warships, frigates, supply ships and mobile plots appeared.

After a long journey, and because they were going to enter the Sarkaz territory tomorrow, the three Grand Dukes ordered the fleet to stop and rest on the spot.

The soldiers sat around the table prepared for them in the dining hall, eating meat and drinking wine, not caring at all about the Sarkaz demons they were about to face.

As Victorian soldiers, they were full of confidence in the high-speed warships and dense naval artillery, and completely treated this operation as an exercise.

In the core area of the fleet, the warships of the three Grand Dukes were parked side by side. Only Duke Kaster launched his flagship, the Glory.

Duke Cavendish and Duke Godottin did not intend to enter Kazdel in person, so they did not bring their flagships.

After all, they only need to command the battle remotely, while Duke Kaster, who has to deal face to face with the Demon King Sarkaz, has a lot more things to consider.

At this time, the three grand dukes gathered on the Glory at the same time, where a traditional Victorian dinner was held. The Duke of Caster invited the two dukes to dinner.

After a few glasses of red wine, Duke Cavendish took advantage of the alcohol and started talking. After the transaction is completed, Victoria will write a brilliant chapter in the history of Terra's development.

The spell in Victoria's hand to cure Originium disease can be equated with the invention of the Originium internal combustion engine.

One represents the official entry of civilization into the Originium Industrial Age, and the other represents the end of the era of civilization plagued by mineral sickness.

With this new wave, Victoria will surely be great again.

"Make Victoria great again!!!" Duke Cavendish shouted and raised the goblet.

"Make Victoria great again!!" Duke Godottin was the first to stand up and clinked his glass with Duke Cavendish.

"Make Victoria great again!" The Duke of Caster then stood up, and the three people's cups clinked against each other, making a crisp sound.

The three grand dukes who were immersed in beautiful fantasies at this time would never have expected that what would greet them would be a horrific hell.
