Chapter Fifty-Five: Cowardly Escape
"Ari, run" The words continued resonating in Ari's head even after Lyann fell to the floor. She was pinned to a spot by the fear of the figure coming towards her.However, she could not help but feel touched by the sacrifice Lyann had carried out.She still cares for me? After all this time? After leaving me?On the other hand, Maron just stood there, frozen except for his rapidly moving pupils. Something was swirling in his brain. Why did the guy that looked most familiar to him attack them? Who was he*******"Johann, Get ready to leave." Juren said."Seems you are taking us for a joke then." Kane's voice was chilling."Have you thought of my proposal yet?" The tease in Somen's voice was more than obvious. "After all you've beaten me once before haven't you?""Sorry to disappoint but our fight won't be for a while, Somen." A wild smile appeared on his face.His gaze became sharper."Slime Technique: Obscuring Mist."In an explosion, liquid turned to mist spread into the environment
Chapter Fifty-Four: Sacrifice.
Maron jumped in front of her right in time with a blue cube construct to protect both himself and Ari. The cube shattered from the impact with Luthen’s hand pushing both him and her away.“Luthen!” Lyann shouted and tried to stop him.“Stay the f*ck where you are and don’t f*cking interfere. F*king get out of my way, Maron!!” He cursed in a loud voice. This was a side of Luthen none of them had seen before, except one person. Something flickered across Maron’s face. Was it familiarity?Juren and Johann both tried to get to Ari’s side but got blocked by Somen and Kane respectively.“Why don’t we catch up on old times? My scar still stings where you hurt me.” Somen taunted Juren.“We’ll leave the former friends to catch up. You are my opponent now.” Kane said to Johann.Ari stood up finally with some pain and bleeding. She turned to Juren and gave him a s

Suddenly a hand touched his shoulder while motioning him to remain quiet.“We are being watched.” Lyann whispered to him.“I know.” He whispered back.Noiselessly, both Kane and Somen had awoken from their tents also. They also confirmed the feeling of being watched.Suddenly, the intent began to provoke and challenge them, as if it was asking for a fight.“Could it be Sophie?” Kane whispered to Luthen.Luthen could tell that the person behind this had the Soul Aspect, just like Sophie. However, the soul energy of the person was chaotic. It even couldn’t be the Mother lady.“I don’t know.” He said initially. “I don’t think so.” He added.A red cloak stepped from the bushes. “Rejoice!” It said. “It is the day of your death.”Lyann stared. Are these the Apostates? Could they be telling the truth?L

“Reese surrendered himself to her.” Somen said, munching on some rabbits that had been prepared before Luthen came in.Lyann was speechless.“Why would he do that?” She asked.“To buy us time.”“You should have just killed everyone and left.”“That’s the easy way out.” Kane said, speaking for the first time.She looked at him and twisted her mouth. That statement seemed to trigger something in her. The moon shone brightly in the sky and the critter of the forest was audible.“Look, I know you’re reluctant to come with us-” Luthen started“You make it sound like I don’t have a choice.” She cut in.Kane chuckled in scorn, then winced from the pain.“Don’t mind him. How about this? You help us rescue them and it’s quits.”“You leave me and my crew alone? No city authorities involved?”“None.” Luthen promised. “Fine. We’ll go in the morning. My men will stay here.”Luthen heaved a sigh of relief.*******“Ahaa…” Ari wailed. “Why do we have to complete a mission at this time of the night?
Chapter Fifty-One: Speechless.
Meanwhile, in Jonelle and Reese’s barely hospitable ‘room’.Reese twitched. Jonelle squeezed her mouth and looked into his seagreen eyes. He tried to offer an apologetic smile.She really knew it would come to this. The boys and Lyann would be at each other’s throats before they could ask for help.“I did tell you this sort of thing could happen.” She said.“I did know Lyann could be this stubborn. I din’t expect Kane to be just as stubborn and both of them even used Supreme Techniques!”“Well, it’s your fault. If you’ve listened to me earlier, we would never have gone to prison.”“I thought it was a physical prison. No, they couldn’t leave things on easy mode. We just had to be trapped in a Spatial Maze. I didn’t expect this.” Reese said, rubbing his chin. “I really underestimated them. They really do have some info on us.”
Chapter Fifty: Mass Destruction.
Ever since she escaped from Voyne, she had a lingering fear of being found by him. This made her fear staying in the city.She instead preferred the clandestine nature of the docks on the outskirts of the city. Those docks had once been the city’s pride, however, they were now a meeting place for criminals and safe haven for smugglers. Even pirates came around here occasionally.Every person around here was focused only on the reason he/she was here. They also avoided actions whose consequences would affect a member of another group. In this way, the criminals were able to coexist with one another.When Renee woke that morning, she had the sense that something was wrong. The day seem too bright, as if the Sun had finally vented all its light in its dying moments. When she checked outside, she saw that the Sun was not to blame. A second ‘Sun’ had appeared in a different place above the docks.No that can’t be right. How were are
Chapter Forty-Nine: Supreme Techniques.
“I might be bleeding, but don’t think I am done just yet.” He said confidently. “Stay back, Luthen.”“You both should have just left when you had the chance. Instead you decided to say something stupid.” She said, her sharp gaze full of fury. Her eyes turned golden. She started to ascend, her clothes flapping wildly. More of those dots orbited her.“If you can cancel my attacks, I’ll just ! Even you have limits!” She said.She pointed again and one of the dots move to her finer tip. She flicked it and it came to rest over the boys heads.Instead of blowing up this time, the dot formed a sort of circular portal.“Energy Manipulation: Heavenly Fury!” Golden energy rained through the portal upon him.However, a black sphere covered him. Null Armour!“Kane, I’ll back you up!” Luthen said, preparing to fight. Kane stopped him with a gesture.&l

“Viral Plant: Entrap”“Desert Rose: Thorn Oasis”“Winter: Falling Icicles”“Mythical Fire: Devouring Dragon”“Flowing Mud: Golem Construct”The crew unleashed their Abilities to counter the Shards.“You two go meet her. I’ll join you when I am done.” Kane said.“Like hell you will! Go instead. I’ll meet you two later.” Somen said.When violence was involved there was no reason with Somen.“Hey! You do know we can hear you right?! Do you think we’re pushovers?! I was planning on leaving your corpses intact. Because of this, I will use your skin for my boots!” One of the crew complained.The two were already gone.“Hey, you! Sword-former! Where did he go?! I am not done yet. Come back here!” The crew member who had previously addressed Kane said. He tried to follow the windows.
Chapter Forty-Seven: Shipping Indeed.
“You don’t deserve to call me that!” She said.Voyne chuckled.“Don’t tell me you are still having second thoughts about today. You saved your friend.” He said.She turned to face him.“You just used me! What have you done to Sophie?!”“It’s late. Keep your voice down. The last thing your subject’s need is their Noble landing in an asylum.” He said and turned to leave.“Are you threatening me?! In my own house?!” She said.The night wind blew softly.“Just do as we tell you. Goodnight, Klare.”*******This Noble is a bit much.He was just about to retire to his room when he saw the Archduchess in the garden. He just wanted to prod her a bit and she went full steam on him.Not too mention the reason he was finally going to his room this late at night was because he had to get chewed on by Mot
