Ruby threw Doki to the ground. "Tell your employer I will gladly visit him. Also, tell him I'm not willing to have a mayor who keeps ugly creatures like you!" Ruby turned her head, looked at Brian with conviction, and nodded to signal the Goblin's release to deliver Ruby's message."Let him go!" Brian ordered the guards. They released the bound iron. The Goblin ran in disarray, occasionally staggering. Brian ordered the guards to disperse. Meanwhile, he stayed behind with my friends."Ruby! Why didn't you tell us you were leaving?" Jay grumbled."Sorry, I was looking for wind, and Brian invited me. I had no heart to wake you guys up because you must be exhausted."Jay kept not rolling right and left, then decided to check if his lover was okay. "Seeing you weren't in the hut, he woke us all up like a starving cat!" babbled Jordan.Everyone there chuckled."But, is what you're saying true, Ruby? Not just a trick? Are you the granddaughter of our leader?" asked Brian, his eagle eyes
Brian reappeared behind the curtain after asking Jay for permission to retrieve Haris's secret book. He handed over the yellowed sheets of paper. They were then organized into a brown-bound book that was a little dusty and was now in my hands."Alright, Ruby, I hope you can learn it quickly. And not only Ruby, but everyone should also take the time to deepen their skills and strengthen their inner strength so that we can all be equally strong in facing them," said Brian."Let's start trying to strategize," Jay said, holding up a medium-sized map of Baskerville. The center of the map depicts Jemma's area, which was the center of all Baskerville activities and the main target of our attack because that was where the marriage ritual with my father would be held."What if we go through the cursed tunnel?" asked Thomas."You're such a fool! Alex must have put troops there in case we return to base." Shey repeatedly punched her friend on the shoulder. However, Thomas was not tired of givin
It was getting late, and the ritual would take place at midnight. Brian and the guards were getting ready to leave. The distance they were going to travel was quite far from the actual distance because they had to go around the main road. It was estimated that they would arrive at nine o'clock and hide in the forest for about an hour."Ruby will send moonlight and rubies to your hiding place to signal that we can enter the base and disguise ourselves. Have you brought your anti-poison masks?" asked Jay as he stood before us, all lined up like innocent Boy Scouts."Yes, captain!" Brian and his troops answered Jay's question in unison. Their backs were already carrying their supplies with sharpened bamboo sticks embedded in their grips,"Then please start your journey. Take care of yourselves! We'll catch up!" They turned around and started walking away from us. We scattered to Jay's side to see the backs of the formidable warriors who were becoming invisible. While behind us, the tri
How strange. Jemma and Alex didn't do anything. They were waiting sweetly. What were they waiting for? My appearance? Or what?Jemma's aides dragged in a familiar man."Oh, no. They got Brian!"I immediately tugged on Mr. Jordan's arm and lost my mind. I told him to come down, but he refused, saying it was too dangerous to come down now, and that's what they wanted."BRIAN IS DYING DOWN THERE!" For the first time, I yelled at Mr. Jordan loudly. My eyes shook, and I couldn't imagine the worst; I failed to protect my grandfather's confidant. Mr. Jordan could be heard howling desperately at me."Take me to see him now, and if they get me. Please keep fighting." We both landed. Mr. Jordan. Jay suddenly looked at me quizzically."Hey, why are you getting off!" snapped Jay. "I have to face what I have to face!""Ruby, no, you promised-Ruby!" Jay grabbed Ruby's wrist."You're cruel to me, Ruby," He said."I have to see him now!""Welcome, my lovely queen! Come here, give us your hand, an
The captain lowered the anchor. Jay jumped off the deck first. He ensured the situation was safe even if Glenn were there. But the people behind him couldn't be trusted. I would have taken the second turn if Jay hadn't rushed me. He did that so I'd have a handle. "Thank you for your effort, but I can jump," I said, cautiously descending the sloping board. "Precisely that. You were free at Baskerville, so I was worried." We walked on the pier and decided on today's hunting targets. Thomas whined about wanting rabbit, and they complied. "What do you want to eat?" I asked, giving my attention to Jay. "Hm ...." Jay linked his hands behind his back. "Anything goes." "Fine, I'll cook you premium roast beef!" I exclaimed, deliberately raising my voice. "Huh, beef?" Thomas thrust himself into the middle of Jay and me. "I want some, too! Can I join you? May I?" "Didn't you say you wanted rabbit?" snapped Shey as she folded her hands over her upper belly, "after all, the princess offer
James displayed the red dots controlled by the RED-EYEZ's guard on the big screen. The guard situation was also played in the right corner of the screen. Some of the small drones flying over the area were working well."We don't have much time! Ruby sent a message that the rioters gave us only until midnight," explained James."The mayor and the government must quickly meet them and give a decision!" Phoenix urged."That's why we're here, Phoenix. Elite people like you are not easy to deal with, either. I officially will not change the policy. Do you accept that?" Haris explained."That's because you don't want to understand the wishes of your people. The rioters are creatures of the former tenants you moved from the Lotus Valley five years ago. Jemma gave them a promise to rebuild the flats in Lotus Valley.""Why are they bringing that up? Lotus Valley has dangerous toxins!""Jemma can clean up the poison," Jacqueline explained.The reality of life was spinning in Harris's brain. The
"Why are they doing this?" Ruby asked."In case you didn't know, the other effects of Jemma's policy are not only on humans but creatures like ki. Basker Forest was cut in half, and they benefited. Now that Leny is benefiting, they feel cheated." Haris explained.***"What do you know for?" snapped Carren.She folded her arms across her chest, trying to be as calm as possible. "There's no need to buy time. Since our plan has failed miserably, you better make this thing stop stalking us.""That's fine! Then, who's responsible for this mess? Your ancestors? Hahaha. After all, they wouldn't be proud of you harming innocent civilians to defend a trivial matter. Anyway, you must be punished and apologize to my father," Ruby demanded, piercing the eardrums of the rioters.They clenched their fists at that instant, glared, and puffed their chests at the girl. Their stomachs seemed to boil, especially at the trivial words. A house, a place to live, a shelter is a matter of life and death.See
3 Months LaterShades of white combined with soft colors filled the five-star hotel. The twelfth day of the twelfth month, noon, became a historic day for two people who seemed to live in a world of their own. It is a story that has not been easy to get through, but a million emotions have been conquering on this day.This day. The left-wing guest lineup was dominated by the RED-EYEZ and the northern wolf clan that looked like royalty. Notably, Glenn's body was covered by neat shirts and suits, with absolutely no there was no impression of a hooligan, even though his big muscles were poking out from under the case. Barlie was seen, and Thomas mingled with Haris and Shey. Shey looked elegant. She wore a cream-colored medium dress with a tiny flower clasp. On the altar, Jay repeatedly adjusted the ribbon tie, then smoothed the tuxedo to ensure it wouldn't wrinkle. He was having trouble controlling his nerves. Even though there was no hesitation, he was just nervous because today was
