2024-10-29 19:42:56"I did." Nexus avoids his gaze as she proceeds to the main deck, where everyone starts to gather. The crewmembers start to bring in the tools she needs and the broken parts.
She finds John in the crowd and shoots him a look. Nexus pretends to feel nauseous; she makes herself fall hard on the floor, leaving everyone surprised. Luther squints his eyes, knowing that Nexus might be delayed, which makes him even more suspicious.
Yet before Luther can even more check on Nexus, John hurries to her side and states, "She's pale. She probably passed out due to low blood or something."
Luther flinches and remarks, “Indeed. Nexus told me earlier she… erm… have her period and stuff.”
"That explains it," John says and carries Nexus inside a room. He says, "I might need a hot compress and something sweet."
Luther retreats back to his room after saying, "Understood. The spectacle will continue as soon as she's woken up. Until then, everyo

She mutters to herself, "They probably tied him up somewhere, but where?"Arwin's eyes start to wander in every corner and every room they might have hidden him, and just then, Arwin's eyes fall on the prison. Where else to hide someone in plain sight? That would definitely be in prison, so Arwin hurries her way to try and make sure that Simon stays there.In just a moment, Arwin assumes the plan John and Nexus came up with to buy some time before I finish the mechanism for them. John injected something in Nexus to make her feel dizzy and unwell, and Simon, who knows the easy fix for that, needs to be far away from the scene.It's reckless, and John will not be able to stay in Night Rose for long if that's the case- then it hits Arwin. What if that is the case?John and Nexus agree to sacrifice John in this plan. John is the one who injected Nexus. Upon Simon's consciousness, he'll examine that and know that John purposely made her feel weak, putting John
The Night Rose Chapter 132
"Wait, so you're asking one of us to go back here with the tools and the other to stall?" Rosa asks, slightly raising her voice in the sense of panic and fear. Timothy is still her husband, and she knows this but ever since what happened in the forest, he feels like a complete stranger.For Rosa, her love seems to be overtaken by fear.Right now, she extremely feels scared towards Timothy. The comfort she once felt turned into the darkness of the unknown, and she's afraid she will get sucked within.She opens up, “Timothy… he didn’t even mind killing Taflen. What makes you think he will even hesitate in killing me? I… betrayed him.”Mark calms Rosa down and says, “Timothy won’t hurt you. Trust me. Our plan will work.”Rosa calms down and takes a deep breath. Gloin adds, “Besides, Mark, you’ll be the one doing the stalling. Rosa will come back here with less threat than your intimidating

Timothy points at Cain with a sharp tone. He says, "That man is responsible for Rosa's escape. He brainwashed her!""Or she managed to see inside my head and understand that Pi is using you, and deep down, you know it." Cain protests, "Pi will never set any of those villagers free, nor will she give you the benefits. Pi and the rest will never see you as equal. To them, you are a threat and will always be. It won't be long until they treat you like how they treat Night Rose. Trust me, they will kill you.""You're wrong about that." Timothy responds, trying to convince himself that what he's doing is right, "Night Rose is vile and cruel. It's fitting to see the end.""And yet here you are on your journey to kill Taflen, who lived his life in peace after he left Night Rose. A bit ironic, don't you think?"Timothy finally gets the gist of what's Sinas is doing. Timothy says, "You're looking for Taflen too, right? That means you're going to kill him as well-"
The Night Rose Chapter 134
Timothy is still in disarray. He could not believe it, he says to Rosa, “That can’t be… we all saw her. Sinas- you were there, you saw her die… didn’t you?”Sinas nods, "Exactly, so how is it possible, Rosa?"With a deep and sorrowful sigh, she answers, "Arwin came back alone. He… didn't make it, so we're assuming he gave his immortality in exchange for Arwin's life."“And where is Arwin?”Cain cuts him off again and says, “Weren’t you looking for Taflen?”“Well, that too.” He smirksRosa clears her throat, "I'll be leading the way, but… I'm going to need to tied Timothy up. Taflen and Gloin will be there… It's just a precaution, and to be fair, I don't trust you, Sinas. Whatever plan you have, it's always selfish."Timothy scoffs as he stays still being all tied up.Soon the three travel on the way back to the builder's village
The Night Rose Chapter 135
Timothy’s voice is shaking as he asks Rosa, “You’re leaving me?”Rosa didn’t say anything.As the commotion rises within Night Rose, a nostalgic smell of perspiration lingers in the air, and nervous gulps fill in the silence surrounding them. Every member of Night Rose is there to watch, hearts filled with excitement and that sudden rush of adrenaline.It's been a while- no; no one has dared to challenge Luther, let alone everyone, to a duel.And on top of that, a girl challenges him this time.Arwin lets down her dark hair and stands up with such grace and dignity in her posture. If she wore a hat, they would have easily seen Night Rose captain.But Arwin's a girl, and it would not have made any sense.Nexus wobbles as she stands across Arwin with eyes filled with confusion. Nexus is baffled. Arwin showing up this early is too risky- being a girl is not disguise enough to find the fact that she is Night

And although she's having the time of her life, it catches Luther's attention. He is in awe- surprised even, but he dare not show it. Luther cautiously looks around to see if anyone else noticed it. Still, none of them were with the captain of Night Rose long enough to notice.But for Luther, it causes him to be highly suspicious of this girl. Luther mutters to himself, “There’s no way. She fights and moves exactly the same way.”There’s only one way to find out for sure.Luther orders the crewmembers to fall back, fighting the urge to kill this girl. Luther chews on the inside of his cheeks in hopes of holding himself back. He says, "This is taking forever."“Oh, so you’re finally stepping down… captain?”"You know, you somehow piss me off, especially when you say that word."“And why’s that?” Arwin pretends to be clueless as she continues to press Luther’s bu

“That girl… did that?” Simon refuses to believe that someone is actually capable of beating Luther- and a girl at that! Simon suggests, “That girl probably sneaked in some dagger. She cheated-“"She didn't." Luther sighs, hating the fact that Arwin really won that fight, he didn't like admitting losing to her, but Luther continues, "I cheated by sneaking in that dagger, but she managed to get it from me and used it against me. I can't protest about something I brought upon myself.""If she beat you, then why didn't she say so? She seems to be the bragging type."Luther ponders, “Indeed. That’s the question. Could it really be…?”“What?”Luther hesitates, but in the end, he didn't tell Simon about his suspicions. Instead, Luther changes the topic. He says, "About Sinas, are the preparations complete?"Simon nods."I'm beginning to think that Sinas is behind all this. W

Everyone is surprised, although they expected John; they are just as surprised given John's posture. He seems like he barely escaped Night Rose, which would mean that their plan did not go accordingly.John says, “The plan screwed-“But before he can say anything further, Sinas instinctively covers John’s mouth and whispers, “Quiet, did you just escape Night Rose?”John nods.“Act calm. They are going to search this place in a matter of time to know who John is working for.”“What do you mean?” John asks, “They’re only going to think that I was the one behind it- that I injected Nexus and-““I’m sorry, what? What did you inject my daughter with?” Taflen snaps defensively“And what do you mean, they’re going to search this place?” Rosa panics as wellTimothy scoffs, “See, if a simple misstep makes you lose your heads

Arwin walked calmly. Wendy saw her when the young woman said, “Yes, everything turned out for the best, they gave everyone immunity, and they decided to unsubscribe. The army’s way of doing things is not the best!”Wendy, with a smile, said, “It’s true. It is not! But it’s good that the republic doesn’t follow them anymore. They’ve been close to me for a long time, so you don’t have to worry!”Smiling, Arwin thanked him and said, “I know! The mafia has done a lot for us, and we are available. We will open a special commission agency, and we can take on any job. Any…!”Wendy, with a smile, said, “I’ll keep them in mind then… Tell me! On the hand, how does it work?Smiling, Arwin nodded, saying, “The hand works great! Just like Strickland’s arm, though, he only knows how to complain….!”Wendy nodded and, seeing Arwin said, “That’s great, but if you don’t need anything, what did you come to do? Just to say hello?”Arwin nodded and said, “I wanted to know how you were, but more than anyth

Arwin was unconscious and the warm hand of a person she knew brought her back to reality. Everything was collapsing, and a one-armed man was pushing hard to remove part of the railing that was above it.“Luca.”She whispered when she saw the effort that the man-made toward her. She placed both hands on the railing and, helping him between the two of them, managed to lift her, she looked at him, and he said, offering her a hand, “I was worried, and I came to see how you were!”She, smiling, took his hand and, standing up, said, “It was difficult, but I did it! Is dead!”Luca smiling, began to run to the side of Arwin. Both were injured but kept a steady pace walking to get out of that place. Arwin seeing him, looked at his bandaged leg and said, “You managed to beat Skyler!”The smiling young man looked at him and said, “Nine times out of ten, she would have lost… I was very lucky!”She looked at him and was sure that he was speaking sincerely. However, she also knew how efficient he w

Arwin looked at the man walking towards her. Her shirt fell to the ground and showed a torso full of scars. The man raised his hands, looked at the pirate, and said, “It is said that you were the captain of a pirate ship. Is that true?”Arwin tightened his muscles, and the smiling man said, “I also!”With speed, she approached. For Arwin, it was strange to see a person of that size move at such speed, the man launched two direct blows to Arwin’s face, and the young woman, moving her head from side to side, managed to avoid them.He prepared a strong uppercut and threw it at the girl’s face. She tilted her face back to avoid the blow, but she could only feel the impact and see the entire room move around her. She didn’t understand what was happening.She was sure she had dodged it, but now the whistle that deafened her ears was in accordance with the erratic movement of the lights when the next blow caught her in the stomach.She felt a powerful hollow in her stomach as her legs failed

Arwin looked straight ahead at the swordsman of the black knights, the corpses of his companions adorned the entire anteroom, and he said, smiling, “After killing you. I’ll go find that Skyler guy and finish him off!”She, smiling, calmly breathed as she squeezed the handle of her gun. In that place, the smell of blood began to permeate everything, and the man in front of her said, “This is it. It’s the end!”Taking a step forward, he pressed the handle of his sword. That action generated a reaction from Arwin, who, with full power, advanced. Their steps were synchronized, and in a fraction of a second, the blood on the ground splashed from their strong steps until they crossed each other and stayed behind their enemy.They both calmly smiled, and it was one of Arwin’s daggers that broke at that moment. She looked at it and straightened up, and looked back when she said, “The weapons of the black knights are unmatched!”Seeing the man, he fell to his knees, and slowly, his hands went

Luca watched Skyler. Every move in his mind ended with the man stabbing him somewhere in the body, and even though the sword was severed and its reach reduced, Skyler didn’t look fazed in the least.In a normal fight with a normal person, Luca would have the advantage because of his armory on his arm, but against Skyler, all those weapons were useless. Something about that person was extraordinary, and his ability to fight was beyond everyone’s expectations, including Luca’s.Skyler bending her knees forward, jumped towards him, Luca raised his arm, trying to anticipate the blow, but the union member did not reveal his attack until the last minute.With a precise sword strike to the abdomen, Skyler made Luca step back, activating the barrel of his weapon. He opened his palm so that it pointed at Skyler, and the young man, only leaning forward a little, managed to dodge the shot.Swinging his sword hard, he hit Luca’s arm with the edge making his hand do a huge flip, and with his bare

Arwin and his men arrived at the antechamber of the emperor’s room. They all looked at the door ornamented with the symbol that was the shield of the empire on the doorknobs while they breathed deeply. Arwin said, “Once we go in, probably if we find opposition, they have to be careful and attack firmly. We don’t know what’s in store for us!”But that was not entirely true, and she had a clear notion of what was waiting for her behind that door. Seeing her companions before entering, she said, “Listen, if there are any black knights entering behind this door, I want you to retreat immediately… if you stay, you will die!”One of the soldiers saw her and said, “We will not retreat. If we even die, we have to make sure to make your mission easier, and if the black knights are behind this door, then we will have to face them, that’s all!”She smiled, the support of her men always lovely, and kicking the door hard, she had a split second to see the formation in front of her.Four soldiers a

Holly looked back and could see Loid storming in, firing her gun and sliding on her knees to get behind the wall her grenade had built. Seeing Holly, she asked, “Are you okay?”She was happy to see him and smiling. She nodded, breathing deeply. Loid saw how a fragment of the wall deteriorated and, looking to the side, said, “First, we must move. This won’t last long!”Coming out of the side of the wall, he raised his rifle and, firing several times, managed to hit Ben in the chest, knocking him to the ground. Looking at Holly, they both began to run at full speed towards another iron container.From the ground, Ben threw his nails, trying to kill them, but they moved quickly and managed to take cover.Loid was surprised, and seeing Ben stand up, he asked, “I gave him six shots. How the hell is he intact?”Holly, with a hint of frustration in her voice, said, “He’s reborn. I shot him in the head, an explosion with a grenade, I even hit him with a forklift, and he’s still whole. It won’

Luca was right in front of his enemy. The man in the white suit was smiling despite the wound on his shoulder. The man was looking at Luca carefully when he said, “Do you think you can survive this time? This injury was because you took me by surprise!”With those words, the man threw himself on Luca. He threw a hook hoping that Luca would protect himself but instead, the soldier moved his head from the place of the impact avoiding the blow with ease.The man looked at that, but, far from being discouraged, he launched a strong kick to the abdomen, but Luca, moving with his legs, got out of the reach of the blow. The man started throwing combination after combination, but Luca moved his body kept away from him.The frustrated man felt the pain in his shoulder when Luca smilingly said, “It’s not space mechanics. If I can’t cover myself, then I’m going to dodge everything you throw… your physical condition isn’t very good!”The smiling man shook his head and said, “As if they hadn’t tri

Arwin was running at full speed. The corridors turned into different paths but they had their path well established. They exactly knew which direction to go thanks to Holly’s help. However, the girl had stopped responding, and that puzzled Arwin a bit as he advanced with a glance. A quick glance at the troops that were with her, the girl stopped.She was looking at her men curiously when one of the Mafia soldiers asked, “What’s wrong, Arwin?”She is a quick movement, took out her dagger and, throwing it at full speed, stabbed one of the mafia soldiers directly in the chest, and all the soldiers raised their rifles to point at her. They were terrified when she, without paying any attention to them, saw how the man stabbed in the ground became another person.The guards looked at each other and saw Arwin, and the girl said, “Apparently, he can change his appearance and clothes at will... I don’t know when he replaced one of you, but he did!”One of the mafia soldiers looked at her in su
