Jane was discussing the plan to everyone, which took a lengthy amount of time to properly formulate in order to avoid any kind of problems with the plan. Sett was also listening very closely as he was assigned a very crucial role in the plan. He was assigned as Azula’s compulsory plus one, which Azula agreed since Sett isn’t a Sapphire House subordinate.After everything fell into place, and everyone agreeing to their assigned positions, the meeting was finally adjourned. Azula dismissed the twelve and instructed them to start the preparations immediately, while letting Jane and Sett stay for there was something that she wishes to address to the both of them in private.As the twelve finally left the room, the atmosphere suddenly became breathable again, aside from the sudden silence that filled the air. Azula and Jane just sat there, not uttering a single word and just waiting on whoever breaks the silence first.Sett then thought of something mischievous that made him smirk.“Hey, A

Dear Ms. Rowena Azula Crow I am writing this letter to request personnel from the Sapphire House for an upcoming mission. I only ask for one individual, and I request that it would be you, Ms. Crow. Before we start with the formal briefing for the mission, I would like to Test your capabilities first, since the latest aid that I requested proved to be incompetent. Mock Training will begin tomorrow at the Emerald House’ Training Grounds. I’ll be expecting your attendance tomorrow, at 7pm. Please be there on time. Sincerely yours: Roman Isaac Crow“And that’s that.” Azula said as she finished reading the letter. “The nerve of that brat to ask for another assistance request.” she added.After Azula folded the letter back inside its envelope. Everyone inside the room stared at her, a

Sett left the Medical Room, leaving Jessica inside. As he was walking down the hallway, he was contemplating everything that he had learned so Far. Even though he was feeling a bit at ease because he had learned so much about his real family, it was still a lot of information to take in for someone who just arrived the very same day.By the time that Sett finally got time for himself, it was already almost midnight. He decided that he should just call it a day and go to his room to rest. He walked back towards the lobby to head upstairs and finally hit the hayAs Sett was about to go up the stairs, the sound of knocking suddenly resonated across the whole lobby, there was no one there other than himself so he opened the door. The moment he opened up the door, there was no one there. The only thing that’s there was a sealed envelope.It was addressed to his Aunt Zula, but he thought that she was already asleep. He closed the door and decided that he should keep this letter for now and

Sett raised his eyebrows in confusion as response to Jessica's statement. It was as if she was expecting that he would ask her about it then and there. She finished tidying up the equipment then grabbed a chair to sit next to Sett. Her eagerness was as if she was a child, trying to share something she just knew to her parents.“So how much do you currently know about it?” Jessica meticulously asked before sharing everything she knew to Sett.Sett was a little bit surprised and curious about how much she actually knew about. Intrigued with whatever information that she could give, he decided to lay down a brief and still non-detailed outline of everything he knew, still leaving some parts hidden for Azula’s sake.As Sett finished the information dropping, Jessica gave her a skeptical look. She had a hunch that there was some information that Sett withheld from her, which was understandable. She didn’t want to pry on whatever it was he and his aunt talked about upstairs. She knew that

“You’re joking, right?” Sett asked in bewilderment of the sudden revelation that just presented itself to him.His statement somehow managed to anger Jessica even more. She paced herself slowly towards where Sett was standing with clenched fists, ready to bust his head again. With her choosing violence as her response, Sett was forced to apologize for his statement earlier to avoid any other conflict to arise.“I should be the one to ask you that you prick!” Jessica naggingly said to Sett. “There’s no way that you’ve spent all that time at Mother Azula’s office, and not learned of the foundational rules that your house has!” she added.“I did learn a little bit about the foundational rules, but…” Sett was cutted off mid sentence.“See! Now you admit that you do know about the House’ foundational rules! But why the fuck didn’t you use that and deny Young Master Roman’s request, huh?!” Jessica furiously said.Though Sett was getting a little irritated with Jessica’s aggressive accusatio

“Oh, my apologies Sett! I must have been hit by the memories of old a little too strongly.” Azula said as she wiped the tears off her face.However, Sett wasn’t convinced by such reasons. Sure, you could cry when you’re hit with nostalgia, but that is out of a joyful, euphoric feeling that overwhelms you to the brink of crying. But in Azula’s case, Sett noticed that her tears weren’t a product of such positive feelings.In fact it was the total opposite. Sett sensed that, the moment he saw her eyes devoid of life. An imperfect match for her ocean blue eyes, that seemed so full of life. He thought that whatever was bothering her, seemed like a burden that was still weighing down his Aunt, even until now.“Are you sure you’re alright Aunty?” Sett asks, deeply in concern for what Azula is feeling.Azula just looked at Sett with heavy laden eyes. She wanted to tell him about what really happened to his dad. However, it was still too early for him to know the truth. If he’d learn about it

After that great battle against the Calamity Tortoise and the Leviathan, Manasi suggested using the shell of the Calamity Tortoise as material to reconstruct the Amber City.As Ben had found out, the shell of the Calamity Tortoise was the hardest material he had seen.Even the materials on his home planet paled in comparison.When Empress Shenna and Princess Anna heard the decision, they also suggested changing the name of the Amber City, and to Manasi's dismay, the new city would be called by his surname, "Shalom City."The Shalom City would be the very center and safest stronghold of humanity.Hence, he planned to expand the Shalom City ten times more than the Amber City, and the walls would reach a hundred meters tall.A wall that would be purely made from the Deity stage Calamity Tortoise.It had to be mentioned that Ben had used the combination of the Leviathan's thick skin and the shell of the Calamity Tortoise

They had used everything they had. They had run out of options to stop the Leviathan from wreaking havoc on Amber City.Despair could be written on the faces of the civilians."Manasi, where are you..." Blossom could be seen with a pale face as she uttered that while clenching her fist.When everything seemed so hopeless, there was always a light that shone in the darkness.From the carcass of the Calamity Tortoise, its back abruptly erupted, then there was a flash as a silhouette of a man arrived right before the Leviathan charge connected to the Amber City defenses.Little Autumn and Blossom were the first to recognize Manasi, as they were the ones with the highest level in the group.Then, at almost the same time, they shouted."Manasi!""Brother!"......Manasi had just finished absorbing the Calamity Tortoise

Seeing the pitiful action of the second enormous being that was pushing its head toward the huge tortoise creature.As if waking it up, made Ben and the others understand that the battle was far from over."Ben, how many more charges can the Sky Arc fire?" Don Alfonso asked solemnly.He could predict what the octopus-fish like creature would do next.Hearing that, Ben gritted his teeth."Three... No, at most four charges... before the weapon system shuts down."At this very moment....."Rwwrrrr!!!!!"The Leviathan let out an earth shattering roar, filled with rage as it discovered the Calamity Tortoise was dead.The Leviathan's green eyes gazed at the Amber City with animosity.Then the surrounding waters start to rise, wave after wave coming bashing at the walls of the Amber City, crumbling it apart.Seeing that the Amber City was about to be submerged by the waves, Little Autumn, in her

"Hmmm?"Manasi saw the sky blue and brownish clouds of what seemed to be elemental energy that was gathering.Because of its density, it was about to liquify.[Contractor, hurry up and absorb that energy before it disperses, as it came from the final heart of the Calamity Tortoise.]With that being explained, Manasi deactivated his buffs.As his body strength returned to normal, he could then start absorbing the elemental energy with peace of mind.Although that elemental energy was not suitable for him.However, because of the Spirit System that was filtering that elemental energy and converting it into a non-elemental form of energy.Manasi could now easily absorb that energy into his pours.He then took a meditative position, as he had to concentrate and, at the same time, he was submerged by the cloud of energy.His power was noticeable, being raised to its full potential. He could even sense

From the birds' eye, a shockwave that was way bigger than the mountains that were stacked together could be seen heading toward the Amber City that was enveloped by the lightning barrier.At the same time, Ben had positioned the Sky Arc in hopes of preventing the shockwave from passing through, and Little Autumn was already ready to give her all to defend the Amber City.Ultimately, the shockwave arrived as the banging sound of the impact as it struck the lightning barrier, as cracks emerged like glass and scattered into the air.At that very moment, no one knew that a miracle would happen when the lightning barrier collapsed.While the parents were covering their children in their arms while foreseeing their impending doom.However, there was only silence, as the second enormous shockwave that they expected did not come.The little girl in her father's arm peeks out her head."Father, there's no more "waves"..." She

The Calamity Tortoise had no more options left. It had to quickly restore its life essence before the being that was destroying his insides found his heart.With that, the Calamity Tortoise charged at the lightning barrier of the Amber City, at the same time being bombarded by projectiles.However, it did not stop the Calamity Tortoise's desperate charge.Seeing that, the people of Amber City gasped nervously. Even the Empress that was watching from her palace couldn't help but crush the armchair she was sitting on.At that moment, the Calamity Tortoise head connected to the lightning barrier.'Boom!'The impact almost shocked the foundation of the Amber City, but fortunately, the Calamity Tortoise's second attempt was futile, as there was no apparent damage to the barrier.The Calamity Tortoise staggered backward while shaking its head from the impact.It was confusing how the thin barrier was abl

The guests in the Golden Paradise were stunned, and then they started to hang their heads down, terrified at this group of mafia-like men. They didn't want to get into trouble themselves, so they walked a bit further from the entrance.On the other hand, the employees were intimidated, not to mention that they had just seen the guards of the Golden Paradise outside groaning in pain. Clearly, they were beaten up.The senior manager gathered his courage. "Sir, please leave you're scaring the guests; if you don't, I'm afraid I would have to call the polic-"Before the senior manager could finish speaking, Alex cut him off. "It's alright, manager Kevin; from here, I'll handle this." Listening attentively to Alex's words, senior manager Kevin immediately bowed in Alex's direction and spoke politely. "Yes sir. Please excuse my rudeness." Alex turned his attention to this fellow, who was a member of the Crown family and must likely be his cousin...Alex never imagined meeting his cousin a

Teacher Vivian recovered from her shock and glared at her husband. "What are you waiting for? Shouldn't you carry your own luggage?""Um..." Richard's face was turning a shade of red as he hurriedly grabbed the bags Alex was carrying."Y-You must be tired, junior brother?" Richard wanted to keep his dignity, so he was making excuses not to be obvious. Furthermore, he had no idea about Alex's identity; he was horrified inside thinking about offending someone he shouldn't have. However, would Alex not notice what Richard was thinking? So he feigned ignorance and stated it in a calm voice. "Tired? Not at all. I can carry it for you all the way."Richard was stunned then, his back broke a cold sweat as he felt like crying with no tears. Not to mention, his wife was glaring at him."I-I'll carry it from here, please." Richard uttered, and at the end of his sentence, his voice was the sound of a mosquito; it was barely audible. On the other hand, Teacher Vivian came forward and faced Alex

"What do you mean my credit card didn't go through?" Richard was frowning heavily. How come his credit card wasn't accepted? He was pretty sure it had some savings in it.The server rolled his eyes, although he was annoyed. Nevertheless, he still had to maintain professionalism. With it in mind, he politely explained. "With all due respect, we only accept credit cards from reputable banks, mostly VIP card holders, but we do have a beer minimum; it would be the C.F.R. City Bank."The moment Richard heard those words, he was dumbfounded. What the... VIP card holders? What's even more incredulous is that the C.F.R. City Bank was considered a beer minimum.'Wasn't the C.F.R. City Bank the biggest bank in the City?' Richard mumbled in disbelief. On the side, teacher Vivian was similarly stunned, but soon she recovered, and she was starting to worry as she uttered. "Does it mean we will have to leave?""Let me think..." Richard gritted his teeth; he shouldn't have lost his cool, yet he had

Around ten in the morning, Alex finally arrived at his destination.He got out of the car while taking off his eyewear, which caused his brows to involuntarily twitch as he felt the heat rays from the glaring sun. Then he turned his attention toward the famous property of Antonio Florence.Undoubtedly, the plantsIt was a mixture of greenery and modernity, as the villas and the mansion were surrounded by gorgeous, rare plants. Alex wondered how they managed to grow those plants that could only be seen in different countries!Indeed, the place deserves its name, the Golden Paradise.Just then, someone came toward Alex."Sir, this way, please." A young man in his late teens who looks like an employee with his white and black uniform came to Alex and led him toward where a group of visitors was.'Kate and the others are not present. They've already gone ahead; I should look for them later.' Alex mumbled while scanning the crowd, looking for his co-workers, only to fail.At this point, as

Weeks passed, and everything was back on track. Alex could be seen jogging around the plaza, as the children were playing while noticing the young man, Alex pass them by while gasping for air.Gradually, Alex slowed down. He was thirsty and dead tired from working out. He took a seat on a vacant bench, gulping down the water bottle and putting some on top of his head to refresh himself. "That felt good," Alex uttered while feeling his muscles start to relax.Just then, Alex heard his name being called from a distance. He shifted his gaze toward the direction of the voice and saw a young lady wearing a yoga outfit.Rihanna? Alex thought in surprise at her appearance."Alex..." Rihanna was catching her breath as she spoke. "I noticed you from the apartment's balcony earlier; I wanted to tag along, but you were jogging too fast... Oh, I almost forgot this is for you."Rihanna took out a small pink towel and handed it to Alex in a shy manner."Wow, thank you, Rihanna." Alex grinned as

At this juncture, the veterans were starting to incircle around Alex; one of the veterans even moved a step closer toward Shenna.Just as the perverted veteran was about to grab her, Alex suddenly blocked his outstretched hands with his body."Tell your men to stop." Alex's words were directed toward the veteran leader, who was simply standing at the back of the group of veterans.Hearing Alex's sentence, the veteran leader signaled to his group of veterans to stop."You want me dead, right?" Alex said while pushing the terrified Shenna behind him to cover him from the veterans."Indeed, we want you dead; your head will be valuable." The veteran leader's statement was very alarming."At least give me a reason why you are after me... Is it because of the Crown family?" There was no need for Alex to hide his identity at this point; most likely, they already knew him beforehand. What's more puzzling is: what was their intention?"You sure have guts." "Alright, I'll explain it to you....
