Chapter 480

Chapter 480: Reunion

『』, hungry, stared all night and finally understood why she couldn’t draw Tige’s likeness.

From beginning to end, she had not clearly seen Tige’s avatar and relied on rote memorization.

Every time she looked down to draw, she would forget Tige. How could she possibly draw it?

In ancient times, they could carve statues of the gods and paint their images because they better used those strange powers, the derived powers gained from consuming Magic Potion.

With that power, they pieced together the likeness of the gods and sculpted them.

Now, no one learns those powers anymore because they feel not very useful.

In this era, all sorts of laws mainly serve the purpose of fighting, and a Card Maker has become a rare researcher.

It’s like a hammer; when a normal person gets a hammer, they think about fixing things, while some extreme people might think of using it as a weapon, but very few consider that the wooden part of the hammer is a cylinder and can be used for strange things.

Well, this metaphor might seem a bit disrespectful to the gods, but it seems to convey the idea that using laws to tap into memories is just like making a painting or a statue for the gods, akin to doing something peculiar.

However, through this, 『』 suddenly thought of many strange uses of laws—some suitable for fighting, some for daily life, and some for card making.

With this understanding of one layer, 『』’s grasp of the laws deepened.

Today, she confidently painted for Tige.

"I finished my painting!"

『』 showed the painting to Tige, her eyes sparkling.

"That’s right." Tige nodded and asked, "How about this?"

As he spoke, Tige stood up and took an attacking stance.

In an instant, where 『』 felt Tige’s gaze was as if it was being watched by an ancient dragon.

It seemed like that thing would shatter any moment!

"Huff…"

『』 knew this was a new challenge; she needed to capture the spirit of Tige in her drawing.

However, to draw this, she felt she needed to understand the rules Tige was using; otherwise, she couldn’t capture that spirit at all.

"It’s easy to draw a tiger’s skin, but hard to draw its bones," this is what it means.

This time, 『』 took a whole three days to barely capture a hint of Tige’s spirit in her drawing.

"Huff, huff, huff…" After 『』 finished the drawing, she showed it to Tige, "Is it okay now?"

Boom!

At that moment, a loud thunder sounded, and suddenly a heavy rain poured down from the sky.

『』 lost her balance and fell to the ground.

The rain was made of blood, and when it hit the deck, it created countless wailing sounds.

If you looked closely, you would see that each drop of blood contained a broken soul.

Listening to these sounds, 『』 initially had a splitting headache, but now she had gotten used to it.

She knew that this meant another continent was at war, causing so many souls to enter Acheron.

When the souls crowded together, a storm would form in the sky.

Tap tap…

The rain hit 『』’s body. She turned her head forcefully to stop the water from getting into her mouth.

"Your talent really is terrible…" Tige sneered at 『』.

『』 glared at Tige. She felt that she had made a lot of progress these past few days and even understood a powerful rule of daring to succeed. If she practiced well, she might be able to complete the assassination!

She wanted to get up, but the rain was very strong. She had just finished her painting and had used all her energy, so she really couldn’t stand up.

"Captain!"

Just then, the lookout shouted to Tige, "Someone is chasing our boat! It’s that kid you threw into the sea before!"

"Oh?" Tige raised an eyebrow and walked to the back of the boat.

There, Karoso stood with a flaming sword, stepping on a whale, bravely facing the wind and waves!

In the past few days, Karoso faced many dangers on the sea and defeated many sea monsters, which made him improve quickly.

Once, he almost met his end, but he escaped thanks to his mysterious Mirror Image rule that no one else understood.

I can only say that anything can happen in Acheron.

Karoso has already learned many rules, and getting out of Acheron was much easier for him than for Tige, yet he still almost fell.

『』 found it hard to believe the sound she heard; she thought she was imagining things.

She struggled to climb up from the ground, braving the blood rain formed by souls, and stumbled to the back of the boat, shielding her eyes with her hand as she looked into the distance.

Now, Karoso’s clothes had mostly worn away, leaving only the lower part intact, revealing his strong calves and muscular upper body.

He had some scars on his body, some new and some old, but he didn’t mind them at all.

His hair flowed with the wind, longer than before, giving him a carefree appearance.

Plus, as he came against the wind and rain, he gave off a very strong man feeling.

"Karoso!" 『』 had not cried these days.

Karoso was thrown into the Acheron, and she did not cry.

After being hungry for several days and feeling weak, she did not cry.

The pirates’ voices were loud, and the wind and waves in the Acheron made it hard for her to sleep. Despite feeling tired and having to draw for Tige, she didn’t cry.

She knew that crying would only make her enemy laugh at her.

But after Karoso appeared, she could not hold back her tears.

Her tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes.

Even though she firmly believed that Karoso was not so easy to kill.

But this ship has traveled so far, sailing for many days, and she has gradually lost hope.

You must know that this is the Flying Dutchman! Even if it is not in Acheron, it is still a legendary pirate ship!

She realized how dangerous Acheron is; even this ship has faced sea monsters many times while sailing.

How could an ordinary person survive?

Even if they did survive, how could they catch up with this ship?

But Karoso succeeded! He came out of Acheron and caught up with this ship!

As expected of the person I admire, truly someone who can slay gods!

"Father, it’s been a long time!"

Although Karoso’s real father is Osiris, calling this person father does not bring him any shame, and it even adds a grand connection.

After Karoso spoke, he stepped on the whale, leaped into the air, and charged at Tige with his sword.

Buzz!

His flame sword was filled with the power of the Eternal Sun and the essence of fire. He moved in and out of sight, as if he were in this world and another world at the same time, making it impossible to pin down his exact location!

Moreover, an invisible force surrounded him, pushing the raindrops away.

Some raindrops even turned white as they passed by him, while the red energy flowed through the transparent shield into his body, strengthening him.

"This is good!" Tige drew his long knife, leaped into the air, and rushed towards Karoso.
