Truth to her words, Shadow was soaking into the warm bath every evening for two days straight. She would stay idle inside the bathtub just to feel the water while Elijah was helping her in every shape or form that she could find.
And due to a small mission, Conan had given to Alberu, the man who was supposed to meet her yesterday evening was delayed into today.
“Is the temperature to your liking, My Lord?” Elijah put a warm towel on her eyes.
“Yeah,” Shadow said incoherently, slurring half sleepy.
Elijah, who was cleaning up the bathroom tool that was a mere centimeters away, readily rushed towards Shadow with worries marred on her complexion.
“My Lord… are you sleepy?” Her del
Conan felt unsettled. The sudden brought up regarding the underworld was a thorn to his side. He couldn’t completely annihilate but it was also the dark spot of his clean Country C. his heart hammered loudly and the sweat formed on his forehead. Fisting his knuckles, he plucked his courage to open his mouth.“Do you wish to make a transaction with the underworld?” The question that lingered inside his head was thrown half-prepared.Shadow scoffed as if it was ridiculous. Her hand waved tiredly. “The opposite.”“Oh, you mean you want to oversee their business transaction.” His expression brightened up.“Yeah.”
“So… is that the reason you try to pull her to our side? I’m pretty sure…” Ryuzaki halted his sentence urgently and did some thinking. “If my calculation was right, we will benefit a lot from her.”Amino stared at Ryuzaki as if he was watching some hilarious movie. “Son, I don’t understand how you get to that conclusion. One thing though, is it not easy to pull her in and I want her because I like her romantically. Please get the facts right, thank you.”“We can still get something out of her right?”“Who's gonna do it?” Amino raised his brow.“You, of course.”“I beg your pardon? I certainly will not.”
“Target is approaching at an alarming speed, roger.” Amel talked inside the walkie-talkie.(Standby.)Shadow answered from the other side.“We understand, roger.” Amel sent a signal to Gunner and Sean.The two of them were the respectful leaders of teams 2 and 3 while Amel was the Commander of the operation.“I will take good care of Busaba. Both of you take the other two.”(Alright sir.)Gunner and Sean answered from a walkie-talkie.(Hisham, Mina. Please aid Gunner. Naomi, you can aid Sean.)Shad
“What the…” Samuel twirled the chair around and rose up. He pushed the chair away in a hurry and ran toward the window. “Open the window.”Cole pushed the massive door and opened it wide.Samuel ran straight to the window and jumped off the three-story building before creating the pair of wings at his back and flapping it.Cole stepped in the air, standing straight as if he was standing on the flat ground.“What should we do, Sir?”“We need to see it first. Lord Cole, shall we see first?” Samuel flapped his wings and went straight to the battlefield which was a few kilometers away from his place.For a normal
“Hey!” Anubis snarled at him yet again.“What?” Alberu returned the energy the same way. “What? You’re shocked that I returned the energy?”Anubis’s face crumpled at Alberu’s answer. He always heard from others that he was rude, but it felt weird meeting someone who was ruder than him.Alberu sipped the hot tea, gently. “Why did you come here?” He placed the half-empty cup on the table, very gently.“Why would I come to meet you? I’m here to strike a deal with you, of course.”Alberu opened his lips and let out a soft giggled between his fine teeth.‘Gosh. They are dull. Lord
ZZUP TAP!The guards inside the tent immediately guarded up and looked around suspiciously. They raised their weapons and stared into the spaces around them.Upon hearing the sound, Alberu rose up from the seat, a smile was inevitable. He gestured at his people to be at ease.“No worries, let me greet them.” He raised his hand, walking past them.The guards gave a nod and stood down.Alberu flicked the back tent’s entrance. Other guards lowered their heads and pointed out at the two figures just behind the trees, four meters away from them.Alberu waved them in dismissal.The guards strode away, guarding the lor
Cole saw Samuel fall into a deep slumber. He tucked the man in and stroked his head as if he was the parent. He left the room after Samuel’s breath was even out. He left the estate after leaving a message to Samuel to the servants.The heat slapped in the face with renewed intensity the moment he stepped out.The new main capital was still loose with a few guards. Those people weren’t enough to protect Samuel, although Samuel didn’t need to have bodyguards to protect him. Even in his slumber, he was fully protected. As long as Cole was next to him and the elves partook in this new journey, Samuel’s safety was guaranteed.He had another mission that needed to be fulfilled. It was a personal request made by the lord herself. He could not refuse nor dare to do so.
Cole sat in the middle of a pile of corpses. Conan had thrown the sons on the floor while pointing his two guns at each one of them, in case Masamoto wanted to do something funny. It was a precaution that Shadow taught.“What… What do you want?” Masamoto emerged with a knife in his hand and a haggard face.Conan coldly pressed the nuzzle against the sons’ heads. His eyes locked on Cole.“I advise you to drop your knife to the ground. Unless… of course if you want to see the corpses of your beloved children.” Cole pointed his finger at the hidden knife behind Masamoto’s back leisurely.Masamoto glanced at his children, his face marred with worry.“Hurry up, come here.
