Chapter 143: The Bloody Prelude

Under the veil of a moonless night, Lucia strode through the darkened streets, her silhouette a haunting presence amidst the shadows. She was flanked by her loyal companions, Myra and Nariko, as well as the two new recruits, Saiko and Taiyo. They were a group forged in the crucible of darkness, bound by a shared thirst for power and a desire for vengeance.

As they navigated the desolate streets of the forsaken town, a sudden rustling in the distance caught their attention. Emerging from the darkness, a group of knights clad in gleaming armor descended upon them, weapons drawn and eyes filled with righteous fury.

Lucia's lips curled into a chilling grin. She welcomed the confrontation, for it was in the chaos of battle that she found a sick satisfaction, a cruel pleasure in the spilling of blood.

The clash was merciless and swift. Lucia moved with deadly grace, her movements a macabre dance of death. With a flick of her fingers, she conjured deadly mana spells that tore through the knights like paper. Each spell was a testament to her power, each strike a proclamation of her unyielding resolve.

Myra and Nariko moved in tandem with her, their blades a whirlwind of destruction. Saiko and Taiyo, though new to the group, proved their mettle, displaying a raw ferocity that mirrored Lucia's own.

The knights fought valiantly, their armor clashing with the dark sorcery of Lucia's group. But their valor was in vain, for Lucia and her companions had long embraced the darkness that consumed them.

The moon hung as a silent witness to the bloodshed, casting a pale light upon the carnage below. The streets soon ran red with the spilled life essence of the fallen knights.

As the last knight fell, Lucia stood amidst the aftermath, her clothing splattered with the crimson evidence of her brutality. Her chest heaved with exhilaration, her eyes ablaze with a twisted sense of triumph.

Myra and Nariko exchanged glances, a silent acknowledgment of the ruthless path they had chosen. Saiko and Taiyo, their faces still contorted with the thrill of battle, looked to Lucia with newfound reverence.

In that moment, amidst the wreckage and ruin, Lucia's resolve burned brighter than ever. The Day for Revenge Arc had begun, and the world would soon bear witness to the depths of darkness that she and her group were willing to plunge into to exact their vengeance.

Chapter 144: Descent into Darkness

The night had settled like a shroud over the forsaken town, its streets still stained with the fresh blood of the fallen knights. Lucia stood amidst the haunting aftermath, her body drenched in the gruesome evidence of her brutality. A twisted satisfaction coursed through her veins, but it was accompanied by something more primal—a dark, simmering desire.

Her gaze fell upon Saiko, one of her newly acquired recruits. He stood nearby, his chest heaving from the recent battle, his eyes gleaming with the thrill of combat. He had proven himself, displaying a raw ferocity that had caught Lucia's attention.

As her bloodlust began to wane, it was replaced by another hunger, one that was not easily sated. Saiko's presence, his strength, his reckless abandon in battle—all of it ignited a fiery craving within her.

Without a word, Lucia approached him, her movements predatory, and she reached out to him, her hand coming to rest on his chest. Saiko's eyes widened in surprise, his breath catching in his throat.
