A few days after that, he got a new mission and left.

This time, he was gone for a longer duration, and throughout these missions, Isabelle stopped contacting him entirely. 

When he came back, winter had set in. 

He spent nine months straight in the laboratory, but what was she up to during that period? She concentrated on her studies, visited Melfrey, and Yves. 

Subsequently, Dark Shadow gave her a task. 

Storm Shadow volunteered to go with her. 

When they arrived at their destination, they split up. 

“Blood Shadow, if I don’t come back from a mission someday, leave Dark Shadow, leave for good, leave right away, okay?” 

Before they separated, Storm Shadow hugged her and softly spoke these words into her ear. 

Did he foresee not coming back from that mission? 

… 

Isabelle felt a wave of emotion rise inside her as she looked at Clubs, “Were you responsible for Storm Shadow’s death?” 

Clubs returned her stare and answered, “No, he gave his life for Blood Shadow.” 

This news struck Isabelle like a lightning bolt. 

It left her frozen in place, unable to react. 

“What are you saying?” 

Even though the mission was tough, it wasn’t beyond my capabilities to finish, so why did Storm Shadow die for me? 

Noticing Isabelle’s strong reaction, Clubs, aiming to unsettle her, started planting seeds of doubt to break her composure. 

“Storm Shadow, that man, thought highly of himself. He tried to bargain with Dark Shadow, begging for Blood Shadow’s life. 

“To spare Blood Shadow the pain of genetic extraction, to stop Blood Shadow from being replaced by clones, to ensure Blood Shadow’s survival, he claimed to have rethought leaving Dark Shadow. Hah!” 

Clubs sneered. 

“Once Storm Shadow’s clone is activated, he’ll be quickly replaced. As someone who wavered, Dark Shadow will show him no mercy. He’s doomed. He means nothing to us, yet he had the nerve to negotiate. 

“He knew Blood Shadow’s temperament, so he kept the clones‘ existence a secret from Blood Shadow. He also knew we wouldn’t spare Blood Shadow, so he used a foolish strategy, sacrificing himself to ensure

They had planned to leave Dark Shadow together. He died, and with no reason to stay, Blood Shadow would surely depart as well. 

Clubs, seeing Isabelle’s pale face, knew he had succeeded, savouring his sense of revenge. 

He grinned and ruthlessly revealed the truth, piece by piece, “After helping Blood Shadow finish the mission, he ended his own life.” 

Boom! Isabelle sensed as if a bolt of electricity had hit her. 

What motivated her to agree to genetic extraction by Dark Shadow initially? 

It wasn’t just to reciprocate Dark Shadow’s kindness, but also to cut off all connections with Dark Shadow by forming her clones. 

For as much as she remained alive, and for as long as Dark Shadow persisted, she could never entirely liberate herself from them, as Clubs had expressed. Wherever she journeyed, she would always be relentlessly chased by Dark Shadow. 

Not even the senior members of Dark Shadow should assume they can truly retire. 

To live among humans, to enjoy the sunshine, to live a regular life, to fully cut off connections with Dark Shadow, and to respect Storm Shadow’s desires, she negotiated an agreement with Dark Shadow. 

Ignoring Storm Shadow’s command to “leave right away“, she travelled to Brookhaven, allowing the clones 

to exist. 

Unbeknownst to Storm Shadow, in order to meet his hopes and entirely cut off connections with the detested Dark Shadow, Blood Shadow willingly entered the laboratory. 

In her previous life, Blood Shadow remained unaware that even Storm Shadow’s suicide couldn’t protect her from that laboratory. 

In the end, she met her demise there. 

“What a tragedy for the ill–fated couple. Storm Shadow, that fool, couldn’t safeguard what he wanted even beyond life. May he find peace in the afterlife.” 

Clubs‘ mocking laughter echoed through the empty castle.
