CHAPTER 720 EMBRACING EACH OTHER

Moonlight cascaded on a shiny figure wearing glistening green robes. Elsa's moist eyes blinked twice

before confirming it was really him!

She stared at Darren without blinking, and her eyes couldn't help but shimmer with tears. She clutched

her chest to soothe the racing heart that had been in pain for so long! Elsa finally realized what she had

been missing out and made up her mind. As Hailey said, nothing was more precious than this moment.

Elsa wiped her eyes with her delicate palms. Just as she was about to take a step ahead, something

encircled and gripped her foot.

She suddenly jerked up and bowed her head, her heart trembling. In a blink of an eye, she fell back to

the woods.

"Miss Elsa, you can't see him,"

a man with blue skin said as he broke through space and climbed out to stand in front of Elsa.

"No, I want to see him!" Elsa stood firmly on her ground. Belongs © to .

"Have you forgotten our agreement? If you go to see him, you will never get stronger. He will die in

front of you one day. Don't be deceived by the girl in purple," the blue-skinned man said and gazed at

her with utmost urgency.

Elsa hesitated, and her lower lips quivered. Now that she had made up her mind, she couldn't back out.

She would be a fool to miss out on such an opportunity.

"The fortune telling is just a prediction. I don't believe it. I believe nothing. All I want is Darren," Elsa

said. And that was when tears streamed down her rosy cheeks.

The blue-skinned man rubbed his temples and sighed. "You are too stubborn. You will destroy

everything if you continue to be like this."

Her hands trembled at the thought of being alone again. "I don't care. Tell them I won't go back to the

Space-time Palace anymore, and I want to be with Darren."

Elsa ignored the blue-skinned man and flew in the direction where Darren was standing.

How could the blue-skinned man let her get away with it? He rushed after her at his top speed.

A force surged out of the blue-skinned man that instantly circled Elsa, making her stop in her tracks. He

raised his palms that shone with sparkling energy, and he aimed at Elsa's feet.

Whoosh!

A pale blue sword intent shot at his palm quickly.

"You!" The blue-skinned man dodged the sword intent and looked very angry.

Another attack was shot at the blue-skinned man, but he dodged it again.

Suddenly, the earth began to tremble, and a handsome figure appeared in the sky only to stand in front

of the blue-skinned man. Darren shot a cold gaze at the man, who was trembling.

Darren's eyesight shifted at the girl standing behind him with wet cheeks, and his eyes widened.

"Elsa..."

His eyes immediately softened.

"Darren." Elsa rushed at him and put her arms around his neck. She hugged him tightly, clinging onto

his body as if he was her life force.

When the blue-skinned man saw both of them finally confronting each other, anger in his heart grew

and rose toward his face. "Elsa, how dare you! We will not spare you and Darren!" He immediately

opened a space hole and was about to step inside.

Darren didn't know what had happened. He was both furious at the blue-skinned man and surprised at

the behavior of Elsa at the same time.

When his spiritual sense began to race, the blade and sword intents swept through the air and blocked

the space. At that time, Darren could see countless spaces collapsing. The blue-skinned man was

rolled out of the space and covered all over with bruises.

The blue-skinned man was stunned to the extreme. He couldn't resist the powerful blade and sword

intents at all.

"Don't kill him, Darren," Elsa said as she pressed her lips against his ears. Her whisper felt like hot

breath on his skin, making Darren tremble.

Darren's heart momentarily to be melted, and he tightened his arms around her. His head went in the

crook of her neck, and he took a long breath. The long lost scent was so familiar, and he missed it! His

eyes started to moisten.

When Darren was in a daze, the blue-skinned man entered the space crack and disappeared.

Darren's hand went on her head, and the other was still around her waist. If only this moment could last

forever. He held Elsa tightly, unwilling to let her go.

They stayed like that until the next morning.

The morning lights on the mountaintop were fresh and beautiful.

Darren still had his arms on her waist. His soft gaze was trying to observe her every move and

expression, and it was never enough. "Elsa, I know you were pretending yesterday. You miss me,

right? Just like how I miss you?"

Elsa swept her eyes at him, and their gazes locked. Her eyes moistened again. "Oh, I miss you so

much. You're always on my mind."

Darren's heart was filled with the warmth of love after hearing her words. He lowered his head and

gave her a deep kiss on the forehead.

They were silent again, only gazing at each other under the orange sky. Darren moved his hand and

started to caress her soft cheeks. "Have you forgiven me?"

"You have done nothing wrong, so there's no question of whether or not I forgave you. Besides, I have

never been mad at you." She looked away, and her face tightened.

"It was because I saw something you couldn't perceive back then. At that time, I was foolish and

thought that leaving you was the best choice." Elsa lowered her voice in the last sentence, so it came

out as a whisper.

"And that day, I hid in a corner when I saw that you were arguing with Hailey. I felt sorry for her when I

saw you shouting at her. She was pitiful." She bit her lips and slipped her hesitant gaze on Darren

again. Elsa wanted to see how he would react to this statement of hers.

Darren was stunned. He thought Elsa left because she had witnessed what happened between him

and Hailey that day. But it turned out, she wasn't mad at him because of that. He had no idea what had

happened.

"Elsa, tell me, what's going on?"

"Okay." Elsa nodded obediently and said, "That day, I was called by the witcher to the abandoned well.

It is said that you will see your future there. Do you know what I saw?"

"Go ahead," Darren said and stroked Elsa's hair.

"I saw a fiend suddenly escape out of the forbidden area. The whole world was bloody red. Countless

masters died. It pounced on me in the chaos, but you came to save me." The next words stopped in

the middle of her throat, unwilling to pour out. "You took my blow. I saw your chest pierced. Blood was

gushing out, and you died right in front of me." She was finally able to choke out the last sentence.

When Darren heard this, his jaw tightened.

Elsa took multiple breaths and continued the story. "Countless people were weeping under the rain of

blood.

They roared while looking at the sky, and said that I am a disaster and that if I did not exist, they could

have been saved..."

Elsa lowered her head and did not meet his eyes.

From her words, Darren only understood one thing. When the first fiend ancestor escaped, and he was

assassinated to save Elsa. She was only keeping a distance from him because of the prediction. He

didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"You are such a fool. Is that the reason you left me?"

Elsa bit her bottom lip and shrunk herself in his arms. "Yeah, I don't want you to die for me. I thought I

could save you if I disappeared. I wanted you to forget me."

Darren didn't know what to say. He just held Elsa in his embrace, not willing to let her go.

"Then Hailey and I..." Darren knew it was hard to mention Hailey, but he had to ask.

"Darren, I have never blamed you or Hailey for this. She couldn't help it. She's more pathetic than

anyone else.

Actually she found me several years ago and told me that I couldn't hate you. But she didn't know that I

was aware of her intentions back then." Elsa couldn't help but imagine the scene of her past again.

"Then why?"

Darren was puzzled. He had heard from Hailey that in the future, she would die to save the world.

"I only know she is the savior. To save the life, she will die. She had to do that with you only because

she has a mission to fulfill.

Just think about it. Hailey is such a beautiful and extraordinary woman. Why would she fall in love with

you, idiot? Humph. Her purity is much more precious than anything else. You bad guy, don't blame her

anymore," Elsa pouted.

Darren started stroking her cheeks but stayed calm. He was silent because he had already figured it

out.

"I wish she could be fine," Darren said with a sigh, not knowing what to say. He suddenly remembered

something and pinched Elsa's jaw, to force her face up.

"Who is that monster with blue skin?" Darren also wanted to know why she saved the monster even

though he attacked her.

"Strictly speaking, he is my senior brother apprentice." Elsa thought for a moment and decided to tell

Darren the truth.

"Your senior brother?" Darren swept a confused glance at her.

"It's a long story. In fact, after that day, I was baffled. I really wanted to hide in a deep mountain and

disappear from the world forever. But only three days later, a man with a blue and robust figure came to

me. He told me that he wanted to make me stronger so that I could save you when you would be in

danger. I thought for a long time and then agreed.

They came from another world, and I lived in a place called Space-time Palace."

Elsa held his hands firmly. "Darren, look at my current strength."

She backed up a few steps and flew in the sky.

A pale blue sword intent came at Darren and covered him.

Darren's heartbeat sped when he noticed the icy aura. It was too strong! He had no choice but to

release a stream of his sword intent to fend off the blow.

"Elsa, are you promoted to a seven-star grand warrior?" Darren was surprised.

"Am I really awesome? Though you are much stronger than me. By the way, I'll take you to the place

where the witcher lived before. Maybe you can see something in the well too." Elsa smiled and

dragged him along.
