Luca nodded while Holly cried. He hugged her and kissed her forehead.
With his hand, he touched Strickland’s face and then said, “You guys look terrible, and you should get some sleep!”
Strikland and Holly grumbled for a while as if refusing what he was saying. However, he just smiled. He knew that they would fall asleep soon.
As expected, after a few minutes, they went to sleep.
Arwin looked at Luca, and he smiled. She smiled back, and without being able to help it, her tears fell from her eyes.
Luca also cried, but neither of them stopped smiling. For a long time, they didn’t say anything as if that was the right thing to do at that moment.
Luca looked at Arwin and then broke the silence by asking, “Aren’t you going to sleep?”
“I have a severe insomnia problem,” Arwin replied while looking at him with a dry smile. It was not a lie.
Perhaps, having insomnia could be conside

Arwin looked ahead. She wanted Wendy’s help but told her everything that was happening, and she didn’t appreciate the best of options when someone said, “He had a friend of ours. To rescue her, I decided to accept the vote of confidence!”Luca’s voice sounded at the door, which caught their attention.Arwin looked at him, and her stoic face vanished. She then asked him, “What are you doing here? You should be resting!?”He looked at her with a smile as he approached her and then said, “You are not going to treat me like a crippled, and you cannot give me orders. We are not married….”She blushed and lowered her head, and she heard Monica ask, “How are you feeling, Luca?”He moved his hand and, seeing her, said, “Thanks to you, as new… I am ready for retribution. That bastard took my hand, and I’ll take his head!”Wendy smiled again and seeing Lu

Luca looked at his new arm, the placement had been a success, but he just couldn’t stop thinking that something wasn’t right with the device. He clenched his fists and moved his fingers constantly to check its mobility, but the feeling was strange. It was like not feeling the hand, and even so, it was moving, like when a limb fell asleep, and we moved it without recognizing it. Luca looked at himself in the mirror, his whole body looked normal, some scars that his life had left him, but filling his left arm, everything changed. His shoulder had sustained little damage, but the rest of his arm had black scars from the explosion and the nerve rebuilding process now. From his elbow down, everything was made of super-hard black metal alloy. The doctor behind him said, “I know the feeling must be weird, but believe it or not, it’s the best thing to do right now...” He nodded while he took a shirt and put it on. He was seeing the doc

Wendy covered her face with her hands when Arwin, seeing the man, shook his head. The guy smiled and said, “I already gave you my opinion! Nobody can blame me for not warning them that what they want to do is foolish. That fortress, especially where Lord Christopher is a true marvel of modern security, entering is practically impossible!” Arwin, losing his head a little, looked at Wendy and said, “I thought this man was here to help!” “He is!” Wendy replied seriously while looking at the old man. The smiling old man adjusted his glasses and said, “Well, if you’re not going to give up on that nonsense, then the only way to get in is by knowing the system thoroughly, and to do that, you need a person!” They all looked at him carefully, he finally said something that seemed useful, and calmly the man said, “The person would be Frank Dinoran!” They all looked at the screen, the figure of a man entering his forties appeared, the old man saw

Arwin looked at Luca and then at Holly, and she calmly said, “How many soldiers guard Frank on the train?”The man looked at Holly and said, “Eight!”Strickland smiling, said, “And all those soldiers have the standard uniform of the empire?”The old man smiled and nodded.“Yes! But there is something they do not count, and those eight soldiers are watched and commanded by one of the most decorated soldiers in the empire, Corey Sandman!”They all looked at Arwin, she was undoubtedly the strongest warrior of the group, and she said with a look of complicity with Luca, “We could work with him! It can’t be harder than the reborn!”The old man kept his face impassive, and he was quite annoyed with the calm and tranquility with which everyone took the mission and, seeing them, said.“This is stupid. Believing they can beat Corey, and that’s pretty unlikely, how ca

Bartolomeo heard him speak to the emperor and approached him, and he said, “You are very insolent to talk to the emperor like that… you know they could execute you just for letting your stupid tongue run.”Frank looked at the man, and walking towards him, and he said, “You don’t have to be a worm all the time, you know. You can have a little manliness from time to time, although for pirates, that’s a strange idea!”Bartolomeo moved his hand towards his sword as he then asked, “What did you say?”But the emperor, with applause, broke up the fight, looked at both of them, and calmly said, “Everyone in this place, we’re on the same team! No need to fight, now guys, what we came for… Frank, have a good trip. I’ll see you in a week!”Frank turned impressed, and when he was going to speak, one of the guards held him by the hand and said, “Moveon!”Seeing the

The girl looked at her and, with a smile, said, “You do not know?”Arwin was alarmed. Perhaps it was information that everyone should know.She had to carefully act if she didn’t want to destroy her disguise. She calmly said, “Dear! I haven’t come to this toilet for so long that I don’t know anything about what’s going on!”The woman saw her and let out a tiny laugh as if completely laughing was forbidden, and seeing her, she approached while touching her hands.She said, “I understand you completely. Who likes this useless pile of sand… there is no way anyone civilized will get out of this place… but I tell you, even places as putrid as these have good specimens to choose from!”Arwin looked at her and calmly then asked, “What are you talking about?”The smiling girl said, “Slaves precious, slaves, it seems that Solomon has something nice for this ye

Luca looked at the soldier. The other three comrades were still standing at the door of what looked like a parts store, none of them approached, but they all had their hands on their weapons and were very aware of the interaction.In seconds and turning his face, he saw how shooters were watching the encounter on the roofs of some houses. Smiling, he said, “I just arrived, sir!”The guard saw him and then tilted his head to see the path behind him. He then asked, “Of the decease?”Luca looked at the soldier and, nodding, said, “Yes, sir!”The soldier, with a confused face, looked at Luca, and with some curiosity, he said, “What were you doing in the desert? And I don’t see any weapons with you!”Luca getting into his character, said, “No, sir! No weapons! Never. I study deserts to try to find plants that survived terrible climates!”The soldier looked at him with some apprehension, and, looking at the backpack that he was hanging from his shoulder, he asked, “Can I see what you have t

She nodded and then smiled at him. She sent them a wink before they took off.Within minutes they entered the town, and five soldiers at the entrance stopped the caravan.While they approached the driver, several of Holly’s men who were not in the caravan entered the town without being detected.The man came over. While looking at them seriously, he asked, “Caravan number?”She looked at the man and replied, “22755.”The man checked and, nodding said, “You have to transport him to the central security building first, orders from the captain!”She nodded and went into the trailer and took the main street when Holly’s partner and then asked, “How did you know the number?”She smiled, looked at the man, and calmly said, “Hack your Tablet! It’s easy with a signal jammer. That’s why she needed to be out here!”The smiling man looked at her, and she nodded and said, “We will only have a few minutes to take command of the security room before they notice something strange. It has to be a mil
