She kicked the officer’s sword to deflect her thrust and then kicked the same place where she had hurt him, and she did back. She did her best to be able to do the kick as strong as she could to be able to get more time for her next attack.

However, unlike what she had wanted, the man got it immediately.

She also did her best to get up as soon as possible despite the hot sand sticking to her body. It was very uncomfortable, but she could not do anything about it.

Aside from that, she could not stop the wind as it raised a lot of dust. And before this, she had to blink several times to see her opponent well. Her situation was not really that promising, but she could only move forward to be able to fight and win.

On top of all, she didn’t understand what she was going through. Because of that, she was getting worried and quite frantic.

She also knew those were not a good combination. Immediately, she breathed hard to help herself to calm down. When she was already calm enough, she looke

    The man was visibly upset. Who would not feel the same way when your hand was severed hand unexpectedly?It was inevitable in the fight, but he was still surprised when it happened. His blood was running so much that it was dripping on the floor. It was a gory and messy sight.The pain slowly sipped in until he could not help but grit his teeth to fight it off. Nevertheless, the fight needed to go on. There was no way he would let his opponent just escape.He looked forward, glaring at his opponent before she swiftly grabbed the blade that he was holding initially in his severed hand. Aside from that, he did not want to be looked down just because he was losing just part of his body. He was still a warrior, a soldier that has dignity!“How dare you doubt my abilities! Now I will show you!” He spat out, eyes red with anger as he looked at the man in front of him murderously.His opponent narrowed his eyes at him. It was like he was cautious about what his opponent would do next.With h

    They stopped at the edge of the mountains and fired in the direction of the speeder, and because of this move, it had forced Arwin to shake the vehicle to be able to balance it.Arwin managed to balance the vehicle. She glanced at Luca quickly and yelled, “Luca, shoot them!”Luca heard that and nodded subconsciously without Arwin seeing it. At that moment, the soldier was almost lying in the vehicle due to the strong movements he was making. He was shooting from his arm.His shots were erratic, but they worked for the soldiers to hide, but suddenly a scream was heard loudly when a soldier on the edge of one of the mountains jumped bravely.“What the hell?” Luca said with a deep frown while still raising his gun and shooting without contemplation at the man stopping him in the air, but while he was focused on that, another landed, grabbing the speeder behind him.Luca twisted the cannon on his arm to fire, but the man placing his own arm didn’t let Luca get within range, they both stru

    The man looked at her with a smile. He raised his brow and then asked almost sounding mocking, “Do you know that you have killed about fifteen of my soldiers?”The way he was speaking was like he was not even talking about his own subordinates that just died. He did not have any remorse or any sign of revenge.In fact, he looked so casual to the point that it was disturbing for Arwin. However, there was no way she would show him that she was affected by the list of his attitude.Arwin had always known that there would be those who did not care about anyone’s life.In her pirate life, as well as her current, she knew that there were leaders like this man in front of her, who did not care the least aside from himself.She had seen this type of people before, and she hated them so bad.Despite that, she was still grinning when she looked at him. She then grabbed the dagger and then said, “You are an officer, right? It means that if I kill you, I can take this stupid tracker off!”The man

    At that moment, she had a realization. Now she had found a way to turn the imperial troops against themselves. Aside from that, she wanted to do that without knowing who the traitors were and who had come for the family.While thinking this, she had a thoughtful expression on her face as she continued to think about her plan. There were a lot of things that she was considering. Her mind continued to wonder about the steps that she needed to take.Aside from that, she was also feeling nervous as she was not sure if she was able to do it. What is even possible to be successful with that?She sighed. She was being distracted, and it was not the right time to be. She looked around and then realized something.“Luca, we are at the meeting point. No one is following us!” She suddenly blurted out with wide eyes. She was really surprised by this finding. It was like something was really unbelievable.Luca sighed but did not respond.Seeing him acting this way, she frowned and then, as she was

    Looking at her strangely, she heard Luca say.“He took out his tracker with the help of the captain of the guard, or what’s left of it at least, and put it in a free one, they’ll be chasing that animal for a while, but it won’t last too long!”Holly looked up at the sky as she watched the Sparrow descend and smiling said.“It doesn’t have to last long, and we’re leaving!”Everyone received the red Sparrow with applause and vitoreo, and Strickland landing at the indicated point said.“We have ninety seconds to find out where we are, and about two minutes before the guard arrives, I suggest you go upstairs now!”All the members of that place left the Convoy and began to get on the ship. Frank and his family got on like everyone else, and the soldiers helped Arwin to enter the ship. Entering last, Luca looked at Strickland and said.“It’s all in your hands now, man!”Strickland nodded. He already knew that fact, but the officer in charge of him told him he had a strong weight. With speed

    The man turned and saw the screen in front of him, and he had to enter the exact code so that the satellites would shoot the sparrow that was rapidly accelerating to get out of the atmosphere.He then calmly took a deep breath. He looked at the satellites and said, “Sir, if we wait for them to come out of the atmosphere, we can shoot without hesitation!”The man placed his arm on the engineer’s shoulder and, leaning forward, spoke delicately so that the boy would understand that he was speaking very seriously, “Listen carefully! If you don’t shoot now, I’m going to kill you and your whole family, of course!”The man gulped. He was completely horrified with what he had to do. The engineers next to him looked at him, and his eyes were full of fear and remorse when the teary-eyed man activated the code of the Icaros.Strickland was calmly ascending when Luca looking at the satellite heat monitor, said, “Something is not right, brother!”Strickalnd, who besieges with force, turned his hea

    All shots fired by Icaros were blocked, allowing the enemy ship to fly away.Upon seeing this, the general could not help but explode in anger. He was glaring at everything as he said, “You’re fucking useless. How could you lose them!”At that moment, the general was completely furious. He was gritting his teeth in frustration. However, before he could further think about what to do next, his fury changed to error when the call that frightened him came.The call was from someone he feared the most. The call was from the emperor, who unsurprisingly knew what was going on.It was as if the emperor was monitoring everything that was happening. The general should not have been surprised in the first place, but he was in a very annoying situation, and just talking to the emperor was more than he could handle.Nevertheless, as soon as they were out of his reach, the man called his general. And regardless of how worried and tense he was, he needed to answer it.A general is still the emperor

    After saying that, she looked at Luca and then reached out to touch his cheek.Luka, at that time, was already looking at her with a half-smile.“All the time I have fought since I was a young girl, the only thing I have known in my life is battle. I’m not afraid to fight and face the enemy, but now, I’m a mess. I only think that they don’t hurt you and yours because I couldn’t bear to see you suffer again,” she said while looking at him with a helpless expression. However, her words were firm enough for Luca not to take it as a joke.She sighed and then lowered her hand to touch his severed arm. Her eyes were misted with unshed tears. She bit her lower lip to suppress her urge to cry. Still, with some fear, she said, “When you were going to lose your arm, I thought you wouldn’t recover. I thought I’d never see you smile again... and for some reason, that was too much for me!”She was really feeling frustrated on the inside. Just then, she realized what Luca was doing, and she couldn

    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
