Revenge of the Night Chapter 43 Leaving the Key
Queenie heaved a long sigh. "Great. Thank you." Just like that, she glossed over the matter, but she had to leave her Mini at the restaurant.When she and Nox came out, she heard the waitresses talking about them. "They don't look poor. Why'd they even leave their car with us over a bill?""It's a big world out there."The comments hurt Queenie's pride.Night was falling quickly, and the winds of the fall season were chilly. Queenie was walking ahead while Nox followed her. Queenie only had her bag, phone, whatever stuff she had on her, and the items in Pearl Residence. Nox had not a cent to him.It was a silent journey back home. And a long one, too. It took them about forty minutes to return, and the first thing Queenie did was scour the whole place for cash she used to throw around.Even after all her searching, she only found about 450 dollars. Queenie stared at the paltry sum of cash and plopped onto the ground. "Oh no. We don't even have enough money to get the car back."
Revenge of the Night Chapter 44 More Money
Alexander was on the other end of the line. He quickly said, "Milord.""I require some money tomorrow, Alex. Send it to Pearl Residence."Without thinking, Alexander said, "Of course, milord. Do you need my assistance with anything else?""Yes. A small favor. I need you to find out the current head of Sanders Holdings and everything related to the company. As fast as you can, if I may add," said Nox."Of course, milord. I will send my men right away.""Good. That is all. Good night." Nox hung up, and he looked at the second floor. Queenie's room was still lit, and he smiled.…The next morning, Nox was already standing at the entrance of Pearl Residence, waiting for Alexander.And then, a big motorcade came up to him. The car in the lead was a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Behind it was not one, not two, but four bizarre armored vehicles.A frown furrowed Nox's brows. "What in the nine hells is this?"The Rolls-Royce came to a stop, and Alexander hurried out of the car. He trotted up
Revenge of the Night Chapter 45 Discreet
Alexander chuckled. "For you, milord, I can give up anything. Even my family's wealth.""Alright, I don't need any brown-nosing right now." Nox didn't decline the offer further. "I'll take this card then."Alexander watched him take the card, and he grinned.Nox tucked the card away. "And is there any progress on the intel gathering regarding Sanders Holdings?"Quickly, Alexander answered, "Yes. Their current head of family and operations is one Hogs Sanders. Sanders Holdings has its main business in pharmaceutical manufacturing, but with the market's decline in recent years, it is now facing a bankruptcy crisis."Nox rubbed his chin. "I see. Alex, will it be a big ask for you to purchase that company?"Alexander answered, "You severely underestimate me, milord. Should I desire it, I can purchase a dozen companies of that scale in a day."Nox rolled his eyes again."However, milord, I must ask. Why do you take interest in a dwindling company?" Alexander's business sense was kic
Revenge of the Night Chapter 46 Pawn Shop
She changed into a fresh set of clothes and went downstairs. Nox was playing with Blackshark, but Queenie said, "Nono, I need you to come with me. I have something to ask."Nox approached her. Queenie took the Black Card out of her pocket and held it up with the envelope. "What is this?"Nox looked at the Black Card. "Some old fogey came this morning and said this was for you. There's some money in that account, and you can use it. I tucked it under your door while you were asleep.""Some old guy gave me money?" Queenie was surprised by the news. "What kind of old guy? What does he look like?" she quickly asked.Nox made up a story on the spot. Queenie was at a loss for words. She thought, 'First thing in the morning, and someone gave me a black card? There's money in the account? What kind of joke is this?'"Where's the old guy?" Queenie asked again."Left a while ago," answered Nox.Queenie stared at the card again, this time with more questions. Still, she was a pragmatic wom
Revenge of the Night Chapter 47 Shocking Realization
Queenie quickly said, "Hey, manager. I'll pay for the bill on my tab yesterday. Really sorry for what happened."The manager kindly smiled. "Don't worry about it." He asked a waiter to bring the POS terminal and the receipt.Since Queenie only had cash, she asked, "Can I pay with cash?"The manager paused for a moment. He said, "Sorry, it's either a card or online payment here."Things got awkward again for Queenie, but Nox stood ahead. "Give him the card, then."'Card? What card?' Queenie asked in her mind.The manager said, "The mister is right. Cards will be the best form of payment here." He showed Queenie the POS terminal.Queenie, however, did not look happy at all. She dragged Nox aside. "Are you stupid, Nono? My cards are all frozen. I don't have any card I can use."Nox smiled. "Yes, you do. You just got one this morning.""What, you mean the black card that old guy gave me?""That's the one."Queenie was speechless. She thought Nox had gone cuckoo. 'There's no way
Revenge of the Night Chapter 48 Finally Getting the Car
"We apologize for our ignorance, VIPs. Please, take a rest in the VIP zone. We will make it up to you and right our wrongs."'Make it up to us?' Queenie was once again shocked. She asked, "What's going on? Why the sudden compensation?"She wanted answers, but Nox smiled. "We should take the offer, then. Let's go to the VIP zone."The manager quickly bowed. "Follow me, VIPs." He led the two of them to the most lavish rest area in the restaurant, and then he told the waiter to serve them two cups of their best coffee, followed by a pile of fruits and snacks.And he retreated like a servant. Queenie was still flabbergasted by the sudden change. "Okay, what happened here, Nono? The manager's acting real weird."Nox smiled, but he said nothing. A while later, the manager came back, but this time, he was holding a beautiful gift box and Queenie's car keys."My esteemed lady, I apologize for our unacceptable behavior. We even took your car as collateral. To make up for that, we have dec
Revenge of the Night Chapter 49 Research
Even the waiters wondered what was going on."Sir, why did we waive their bill? Not even the highest VIPs could get that privilege. This has never happened since our restaurant's inception. And you even gave her the shop's custom-made gift."The manager said, "Ah, what do you know? Those two are going to bring us a lot of money.""Huh? Did you just say…" The waiters were once again dumbfounded."Just you wait. Our restaurant is going to be madly popular from now on. We just received a Black Card owner in our eatery. If everyone finds out, business is going to boom. That little event alone is worth millions in marketing. Oh yeah, I can see the money already."The manager was muttering to himself like a madman. The waiters had no idea what a Black Card meant, nor did they know who the bigshots were.…Queenie was still in a daze. She was in her car, staring at the golden whale and the card in confusion. Nox was beside her, looking relaxed.A long while later, Queenie shook her he
Revenge of the Night Chapter 50 Locking Up the Card
Nox hurried upstairs. "What's wrong?"Queenie was seated before her laptop, her eyes wide. The Black Card was sitting before her. It took her a long moment before she pointed at the screen. "Nono, y-you have to see this."Nox approached her and scanned the screen. It was showing the Black Card's introduction."I-It's a Black Card, the king of cards. Owners of this card get all the VIP privileges wherever they go. Only top government officials, bluebloods, or big capitalists can own one. No one else can apply for one of these. And it has unlimited credit!"Queenie fell into stunned silence. She had never seen a Black Card but had heard stories of it. Now, she was holding the very same legendary card, and she was dazed.Nox didn't think Queenie would find out so soon. He scratched his nose and feigned surprise. "I see.""Don't give me that! You've probably never seen this card, so I'll make it simple. If you have this card, you'll be treated like royalty wherever you go. And it has

Revenge of the Night Chapter 1950 Commander of the Southern Sea
Brundela's so-called fleet only consisted of three tiny ships. In comparison, the Faeastian fleet consisted of nearly a hundred ships, over thirty of which were large-scale battleships. It even included a recently commissioned aircraft carrier.The sight made the commander of the Brundela ships sigh in envy. Centuries ago, Brundela was the ruler of the seas with a navy no one could defeat. However, things had changed. Brundela's navy had fallen from grace, replaced by Faeast, the nation everyone once picked on.Just the might of this one portion of the fleet could overwhelm all of Brundela's navy.Moreover, according to Vermillion Bird, these were just the ships from the Southern Sea fleet that could be deployed in an emergency and just one of Faeast's five fleets.Brundela's commander was left gaping the entire time.With both fleets united, Nox led Elizabeth onto the Southern Sea fleet's flagship. With state-of-the-art technology, it was a top-tier capital ship. It would not be
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1949 Elizabeth's Fleet
White Tiger was extremely savage. The ship’s crew was scared to the brink of death, and the demigods from the Assad Temple were so shaken that they abandoned the ship and ran off. "Where are you running off to, scum?"White Tiger leaped off of the ship and slaughtered the fleeing demigods. The wind had stopped howling, and the rain came to an end. Everything on the ships went back to normal, swaying with the ocean waves. "Lord Nox, the ships are settled. As ordered, we have killed off everyone from Assad Temple while leaving the crew unharmed."Still, if you didn't send me over to keep an eye on things, White Tiger would have been crazy enough to slaughter the crew as well," Vermillion Bird said to Nox in a message. "Very well. Your Highness, it's time for the transfer."Nox led Elizabeth and the survivors to the ships. As James and the other team members rowed toward the ships, Nox flew across the sea with Elizabeth in his arms. Nox was not just the Nine-State Lord. I
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1948 Fighting Nocturna
On the ship's bridge, Vermillion Bird noticed something was off. The deck below her was engulfed in a dark cloud that her Divine Sense could not penetrate."Stupid White Tiger. You refused to strike back then. Now, look at this. You've given him a chance to use the Forbidden Arts. If I weren't here, who knows how much more time you would have wasted?" she grumbled. Just as she was about to make a move, White Tiger's voice reached her."Stop! Who are you looking down on? I don't need your help! Also, keep a civil tongue! I am ranked second among the Four Great Generals. I am your superior!"She fell silent."You're a fool!" Vermillion Bird rolled her eyes. After informing White Tiger to deal with his own mess, she ignored the fight and went into the bridge control room to contact the security center of Brunhild Manor.As she communicated with them, White Tiger's fight continued.However, it was not White Tiger who made the first move. It was Nocturna, who had merged with the black
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1947 Dealing with Assad Temple
In the straits near the Brunhild Manor, a fleet of three ships was stationed there.Thunder crackled across the skies as the waves crashed in fury.Even so, the three ships remained stationary on the sea, unfazed by the weather.This was not good news to the ships' crew members.It felt like the ships were haunted. It was just too creepy!A dark and sinister force enveloped the three ships, causing the crew to panic and fervently pray to their gods for protection.On the flagship, all of the crew members were rendered immobile on the floor by a horrifying aura.Occasionally, shrill screams of pain would echo across the ship.Half of the corpse of a demigod from Assad Temple crashed through the ship's cabin walls, leaving a trail of blood across the deck.Not long after that, Nocturna was pinned to the deck by an immense force. It took him a long time before he managed to stumble to his feet.At that moment, Nocturna lost all of his previous confidence. His face was stark whit
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1946 Meeting Elizabeth Snowden
Elizabeth grabbed Nox's hand, forcibly shaking it. "I'm Elizabeth Snowden, and I've always admired you. How did you survive being surrounded by the ten nations in the Ocean of Death?"Nox chuckled in shock. How did the princess of Brundela know of that?At the same time, he felt some awkwardness. After all, what he did in the Ocean of Death was not something to be commended for.Even James could tell Nox was feeling awkward. It was a surprise to find the Nine-State Lord anxious."Your Highness, the martial arts masters of the ten nations in the Ocean of Death were no match for Lord Nox. He was only surrounded by enemies because he was betrayed by a woman he trusted," James explained.As a national intelligence officer, James naturally knew the truth behind the Ocean of Death incident."Please stop talking about it. It was so embarrassing. I've never been so pathetic before," Nox said with a wave of his hand."No! How can it be embarrassing? It was none of your fault. In fact, it
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1945 Wish Came True
Nox could fully represent Faeast, but James couldn't do the same for Brundela, so he had no idea how to answer.Nox said, "It's alright. We'll strike up a partnership with the royal family. I'll handle the affairs with Brundela after that."James heaved a sigh of relief. Without Nox, Elizabeth would've died. Then, James remembered that Dickson's fleet was still in the waters."This isn't a safe place to talk, Nine-State Lord. Dickson's fleet is here. If they were to fire their cannons, none of us can leave," James said quickly.Vermilion Bird gave him a look of scorn. Cannons were useless. With her lord around, he could stop even a forbidden item."I'll handle him when the time comes. Is White Tiger done? Check on him, Vermilion Bird. I don't want him taking out the whole fleet. They're our exit ticket."Vermilion Bird quickly went to the fleet. At the same time, Elizabeth stirred."Your Highness!" James and the royal special forces huddled around Elizabeth. They were overjoyed
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1944 Partnership
"So, you're Vermilion Bird?" James' eyes shone. His respect for her was obvious. He had heard of Vermilion Bird, of course."Good, then let's cut to the chase. Thanks to my lord, we won the battle with Winterosch. It is now our vassal state. He has also slain Ice Emperor on Nineside Peak and scared the Light Nations into submission."We came to Brundela to get rid of the Assad gods. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, as they say. So now you know why we came," finished Vermilion Bird. There was a veiled threat inside.James looked grim. They were trying to force Brundela into a partnership. James said darkly, "We can strike up this partnership, but I don't think you're just trying to partner up with us, are you?"Vermilion Bird didn't even bother arguing. "So what if we aren't? Do you think you have a choice? Faeast is not the same nation you once knew. A hundred years ago, Brundela was the first to attack us and poison our people. You stole so much from us. Our vengeance is justif
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1943 Tea
James then remembered that the princess asked that he give her cyanide. Their intel did say that Nox was a miracle healer, so James quickly let Nox check on Elizabeth.Nox could tell if Elizabeth was poisoned or not right away, and she was not. However, he pretended to check on her anyway. "She's fine. She's just weakened and a little shaken. She should wake up soon."The princess was fine, yet Nox picked her up. James knew what he was doing, but he couldn't do anything about it. The guy blasted a god into nothingness. James prayed that Nox wasn't the same kind of scum these gods were.The rain of bullets came to a stop. With their bullets finished, Ebony Skeleton's members whipped out their knives and pounced at Black Tortoise.These super soldiers were made by the hands of gods, and they were killing machines. However, they were nothing but jokes when their enemy was Black Tortoise. They only felt no pain and didn't fear death when their enemies were people like Brundela's specia
Revenge of the Night Chapter 1942 Talk with James
"Well, that's rude of you. I helped you regain your sanity. You'd have to spend the rest of your lives in an asylum otherwise," Nox joked. Then, he realized these people didn't speak Faeastian.Nox was about to ask Vermilion Bird to translate, but James spoke in fluent Faeastian."Who are you? What do you want to do to Her Highness? She is the princess of Brundela. Are you going to take her as well, Faeastian?""Huh, that's some fluent Faeastian. Wait, I think I've seen you before." Nox realized that the agent looked familiar, and he remembered seeing the guy on TV. "Ah, I've seen you on TV before. You must be the celebrity agent. The movies are based on you, aren't they?"Nox gave him a thumbs up. The adaptations were well done, after all. James let a bit of his guard down. He was about to ask who this guy was. After all, not everyone could scare a god. He wondered if Faeast had gods as well.On closer look, James thought Nox looked familiar. "Wait a minute. I've seen you on TV b
