Since it was her airship, she knows about the blind spots and secret spaces where some of her crew members sneak in extra gold or treasure.

In fact, Arwin really knew how this works. Even if she was a female, she was more used to acting like a man and often times moved closely with her crew.

They were her close friends on the ship, and she did consider them to be family as well. Sadly, not everyone did the same to her, especially when they learned the truth about her gender.

Yes, they were happy that she was alive, but with the gender barrier, it became a pretty complicated thing to be their captain again.

With that in mind, Arwin continued to walk. After a while, Sinas cautiously follows her. It was not like he was afraid of her, but he always felt that it was better to be safe than sorry. Also, they were not really considered friends.

Upon arriving, Nexus was also there, who looked at them with a complicated expression.

Arwin nodded with a

    Nexus and the rest are taught that people during Arwin’s time were rowdy and tough―that’s how they managed to survive without technology.But for this young man, he seems awfully polite, like he just woke up to this world. The young man shrugs and starts to dust off his clothes. He says, “I’m Dylan. I’m… new here, so I got lost.”Nexus squints her eyes in disbelief, and she asks, “New? Do you mean to this crew? Why didn’t I see you take part in any initiation? Were you recruited?”Dylan clears his throat and brushes off his hair back in confusion, and Nexus asks too much nonetheless, Dylan answers, “To the world. I’ve been in coma for years and I just woke up―that’s what Simon says.”Nexus is taken back by the striking resemblance of Dylan to Sinas. Their facial features are almost too identical. Anyone would easily think that they are father and s- Nexus steps back at th

    Sinas sees before him his son, Dylan, and for some reason, it feels like the real Dylan himself.Sinas is speechless, and tears start to run down his face uncontrollably. He could not believe it. A part of him still thinks that this might be a dream and that he would wake up soon. If it was a dream then he was fine sleeping for a while.His heart was beating so fast as he carefully and intently looked at the Dylan in front of him. Sinas sees Dylan’s faint birthmark on the left side of his neck, and it confirms his suspicion. It is indeed Dylan- the one and only son of Sinas. That birthmark is something that even cloning cannot copy.A rush of warm feeling fills him up, and he wants to hug Dylan, but Sinas snaps. He finally realizes what Luther is up to. Dylan walks toward the body and sees that it’s an exact copy of him dead lying on the ground.Dylan shrieks as he falls to the ground, and Sinas’ tears fall down as well.Sinas&rsq

    Dylan leaves the room, and after a while, the three get into it.When he was out of sight, Luther looked at Sinas and immediately gets straight to the point and asks, “I know Arwin’s really alive, and you do too. I also know Arwin’s boarded the ship, and I have a good guess who she is.”Simon and Sinas kept quiet for a while as if pondering what he was talking about. Sinas has a more calm expression while Simon was frowning as if he did not know if what he heard was right or wrong.It took a while for him to finally speak up.“I’m sorry, but did you just say she? Is Captain Arwin… a girl?” Simon asks in confusion. In his mind, it was something that was hard to believe at all. A captain for the a notorious Night Rose pirates was a girl all along?It was like the reaction was expected thus, Luther did not respond to him and just simply continues looking directly at Sinas and sai

    Sinas then removes his sleeves, showing a mark on his arms with a light glowing inside of it. Sinas continues, “Nexus built a wire, and I hate to break it to you, but I’m already Arwin’s ticking bomb. She beat you to it.”“So what if you’re wearing a wire? No one else would hear it apart of Arwin-“ Pi starts but then she is cut off as the crewmembers start to surround outside. Pi nervously asks, “What’s happening?”“Oh, did I forget?” Sinas says, “We were building two mechanisms. A wire to get your confession made by the daughter of yours truly, Nexus, and the other is made by Gloin, and it’s what you call a speaker.”“Boom.” Sinas mocks them with a smirk, “That’s how we got you.”Fearful and nervous, the two comes out of the lab and see that everyone is surrounding them.

If it wasn’t for her, Arwin wouldn’t have known about Night Rose.”His head fills up with an uncontrollable rage and overpowering feeling of envy. Luther picks up his sword and swings it toward Nexus.

    Arwin woke up, with a complicated feeling. There were times where she had recalled her past life, well, mostly the time that she had decided to retire.Nah, don’t think so much, Arwin thought to herself and then shook her head. It was not like she was in a bad situation now, but there were times that she really did miss a part of the adventure.And that’s fine, Arwin consoled herself silently. She then looked outside her window.It was still early, and the sun was shining along that beautiful lake. This was a majestic routine that she had carried for the last three years.See, it’s not so bad, Arwin thought to herself while looking at the amazing morning view.Her life was different this time. Everyone knew the farmer, the woman who had taken it upon herself to lift a farm in that place.No one knew about her shady, famous, and action-packed past. Arwin was perfectly fine with that, as this was what she ho

    All things were just the usual. They often collected the eggs from the chicken coop, then got milk from the cows and watched over the pigs.Arwin worked in the orchard while Nico distributed the morning milk throughout the town.They did their work without fail while Arwin looked at everything peacefully and with satisfaction.Just then, while Arwin was working, a man in a carriage stopped outside the fence of his property.His chauffeur dressed in blue shone with the number of diamonds that his outfit had while a hand came out of the small door of the carriage knocking on the door.The driver was quickly getting out to open the door when from the carriage, a pompous man with a huge gold medal on his chest.“Nagel! Please remember your duties!” The man said arrogantly. His voice was so loud that Arwin could hear it from where she was.The driver lowered his head, and then he stepped back. He said apologetically, “Sor

    When he entered, a woman approached to offer him a plate of food. He saw her and said happily, “Mrs. Agatha, you look lovely!”She smiled and brushed a piece of lint from Nico’s suit, said, “You also fixed up very well, darling! I bet you want to see the birthday girl!”Nico’s eyes lit up, there was nothing he wanted to see more than Emily, and when Agatha, the girl’s mother, pointed in the direction of the stairs, he saw her go down.Professor Christopher’s mansion was very large, in the wolf easily forty people could be without problems, and that day, those forty people were speechless when they saw the young girl come down.Her blonde hair fell wavy behind her head, and her pink dress showed the body of a girl who would soon be a woman smiling.Everyone applauded when she came down the path, waving to everyone until she was in front of Nico, who, with a very wide mouth open, muttered brightly, &ldq

    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
