2022-02-08 21:00:04Jo ran towards the source of the explosion. Judging by the densely rising smoke and fiery lights, the explosion just now came from the government building in the center of the city.
The vibration emanating from the Archturian’s communication device stopped him. There is a notification containing a brief message about the cause of the explosion. The rebels dared to move and show themselves. Now they are rioting in the town square and blowing up government buildings as a symbol of protest.
There is a link to a video that is thought to have sparked this riot. Jo opened the video. Heros’ face was plastered on the screen. He seemed to be in a low-lit room.
“My loyal followers, it is time for us to move!! No more hiding in the shadows!! We are no longer just obeying a government that hides many secrets and robs us of our freedom!! Show them who we are!!”
Heros must have made this video before he was killed. Who published it? Is it one of

Things were extraordinarily chaotic in the center of Ayria city. Jo didn’t know how to calm the rebels anymore, because they were so panicked to see the Draconians. He could only protect the humans who were nearby, as well as finish the Draconians.The Archturian troops from Meubena have been sent to Ayria to help with this riot. They can repel the Draconians, even though the ugly creatures keep coming, but the Archturians are slowly getting the situation under control.The police and the rebels were herded behind the cover of the Archturian barricades, escaping the dead hands of the Draconians, and the whirring of bullets that shot from Alfhild, or from Einar’s jabs.The plan was to gather all the humans out here and put them in one of the nearby buildings.Archturian soldiers desperately fought their mortal enemy. Many soldiers lost their lives tonight. Even though they had worn special uniforms, the Draconians could still find an opening to

At first Jo is unsuspecting when an Archturian soldier leads him through the back of the building they are sheltering in. He told Jo to get into one of the patrol cars that were waiting there.“Are there riots elsewhere?” Jo asked the patrol car driver. An Archturian of the rank of Bile. No answer. That Bile continued to drive down the streets of Ayria, avoiding the chaotic city center.Jo, who was sitting in the passenger seat at the back, patted the Bile’s shoulder. “Hey, I’m asking you.”“Girga Lyon’s orders,” He answered simply. Then no more conversation.The patrol vehicle sped out of Ayria, and for a moment Jo thought he was going to be led to Archturian headquarters. But no, they just passed Meubena outer ring and continued on to the winding road that led to the mountain.Instead of being on the battlefield, they stayed away from it. As the car went uphill, Jo could see explosions and fir

Cold.It felt like a lump of ice had been stuck to one side of Gemma’s body when she opened her eyes.Gemma’s head throbbed excruciatingly painfully, causing Gemma to close her eyes again for a moment.Where is she?Gemma wanted to get up, but she couldn’t move. To be precise, Gemma’s consciousness hadn’t fully returned, so she couldn’t feel her legs and arms.Gemma opened her eyes again, and she studied where she was now. She lay on the damp stone floor, the uneven surface jabbing and hurting her body every time she moved.This room looks like a prison. The iron bars on the side farthest from Gemma lay confirming that. Nothing helped her vision apart from the light shining from above, perhaps the moonlight streaming through the crack in the wall. Gemma squirmed, and it was only then that she realized her hands were handcuffed.“Ugh!” The sound of coughing coming from above Gemma’s

“Relax. He’s not dead yet.” Girga Lyon put the weapon back in its holster, and he said, “But soon you must kill him. Or he will kill you.”“Fuck!!” Gemma screamed. She didn’t understand what the evil Girga’s words meant, and she didn’t care.Girga Lyon smirked, then chuckled. Gemma stood up and attacked him wildly, but what she did was only hurt herself. Gemma fell easily, like a stone thrown and unable to resist gravity.“FUCK YOU!!”“SHUT UP!!”Girga Lyon kicked Gemma’s stomach, causing her body to bend until she coughed.“Let’s go,” said Girga Lyon. Purity took the time to look at Gemma once more, before turning to follow Girga Lyon out of the place.“I WILL GET OUT OF HERE AND YOU WILL ALL DIE!!” Gemma screamed, kicking the iron bars in her fury. But no matter how hard Gemma screamed, it didn’t stop Purity

It was almost impossible not to kill the Draconian that Nero was now facing. But Servant said that the monster he was fighting right now was Jo.“I know each one of your energies. I can’t be wrong. He was Jo. He’s infected.”It’s hard to fight Jo in Draconian form, although it looks like Nero will also be overwhelmed if he fights Jo in human form. Jo’s abilities are not much different from his, because they were trained by the same person.Nero’s attacks can be parried well. Instead, Nero had to be careful not to get Jo’s hand stuck in his body.Nero had never been taught to simply immobilize a Draconian, so he didn’t know if this Jo could be knocked out. Nero is only asked to buy some time until the Servant breaks the seal that locks Lanaya’s soul.Nero sees an opening as Jo attacks blindly. He took the opportunity to kick Jo with all his might until Jo’s body hit and knocked down t

Jonah was very surprised when he saw Michael, who was waiting for him in the Archturian headquarters’ lobby. Jonah was so shocked it made him speechless. Just as he had just come out of an emergency meeting with the higher-ups of Archturian, his men came with a message he couldn’t believe. He said someone named Michael wanted to see him, and now that person was waiting for him in the lobby.Jonah ruled out the possibility that Michael was that Michael, but as far as Jonah remembered, he didn’t know anyone named Michael other than Michael, the annoying neighbor.“You—” Jonah looked Michael up and down. All black clothes, shoulder-length messy hair, thin sideburns on the chin. Michael’s appearance was not much different from when he was at home. “At least you can suit up.”Michael simply returned those words with an expressionless look. “There’s no time for that,” he said.“This i

“Where are we going?” Purity asked Hazkiel after they sat in the carriage. Hazkiel did not answer the question right away. He waited until the train made its way through the cold late afternoon in Ayria. He took off his hat and placed it on his lap.“To the town next door. There are another report.”“About the same case?”Hazkiel nodded, and Purity knew she was not allowed to ask more questions.Hazkiel glanced at his sister, and his memories flashed back. Purity, the only sister and the closest person in Hazkiel’s life, is so determined to keep her dream of becoming a scientist like Hazkiel, instead of accepting the marriage arranged by their parents.Now it’s proven that Purity can be as great a scientist as Hazkiel is. She can even be a reliable assistant for Hazkiel. Hazkiel himself cooperates with the police to investigate strange cases that are sometimes beyond human understanding.Hazkie

“So you’re saying that the creature earlier was an infected human?”Hazkiel still didn’t believe in all the explanations Servant made, so he went back to confirming the facts that Servant just explained.Servant said that the two of them came from a faraway place, which even ships couldn’t reach. That this woman named Lanaya is a princess whose job is to protect the human habitation from the threat of foreign nations.And that right now, there are foreign nations who come to this country and spread disease.A faraway place that anything couldn’t reach was unreasonable. Hazkiel, with his solid logic, couldn’t just accept Servant’s story that sounded like a fairy tale.“I know this is hard for you to believe it,” Lanaya said, as if she could read Hazkiel’s mind. “And I don’t want to try too hard to convince you. I’m just going to say this; if you want to help me, then

“Re—a relationship?” Gemma stammered. “What do you mean?” Gemma was just about to tell Nero to forget what had happened between them. Especially after Gemma found out that Nero had been in charge of watching her all along, and he knew all of Gemma’s movements and habits. And after what Jo said, about Gemma being unable to be in a relationship with anyone… starting it now sounds like a bad idea. “You don’t understand?” There was disbelief in the way Nero asked the question. Yes, of course he didn’t believe it. Gemma wasn’t a child who didn’t understand Nero’s question. “It’s not like that...” Gemma said. “I understand.” Gemma closed her eyes for a moment as she took a deep breath. As she did so, she could hear a voice from inside her head. Either her own voice or Lanaya’s. This is wrong. “Then what is your answer?” Gemma opened her eyes, blinked, then looked at Nero. “Should I answer it now?” “I’m sure you’ll have the answer as soon as I ask.” “You know me very well, don’t yo
The Arc: Elenio (English) Bonus Chapter - Would You?
The time setting for this chapter is after the terror incident in Fiend (Chapter: Act of Patience) and before Gemma trains with Servant (Chapter: Mind Over Matter).---Gemma had no idea what she was doing here.When Jo asked her out earlier, Gemma thought Jo was taking her to a lunch or asking her to investigate something. He had only said about making a visit before returning to Meubena, and Gemma did not know that Jo was referring to a visit to the Saint Anna orphanage.This is Sarah and Nero’s house.The way Gemma looked at Nero felt different now, after what they had been through. The alarm squealing that their relationship wasn’t the right thing was still sounding, and with Lanaya in her body, Gemma couldn’t act as she pleased.At least she couldn’t possibly kiss anyone right now. Gemma imagined Lanaya would let out a disgusted snort if she found Gemma doing it.But Gemma couldn’t avoid or forbid people from saying something to her.Just like Nero was doing now, in the gazebo in

The sound of three meters wide glass hitting the ground seemed to stop time for a while.Gemma and Nero froze where they stood, looking at each other wide-eyed. Their kiss stopped, even with any thoughts that had previously crept into their minds and clouded their vision.Everything happened in seconds, but every moment felt so slow.As the Draconians flying around the tower stopped and turned around. The roar, the flapping of wings, and the pair of red eyes that now turned to Gemma and Nero.“Run!” shouted Nero.Gemma took the initiative a split second before Nero gave the order. She ran towards the stairs, but stopped and gave way to Nero because Gemma didn’t know where to run.Neither of them carried any special weapons, and even though Gemma only found out yesterday that she wouldn’t die when hit by a Draconian’s claw, that didn’t mean Gemma would just fight them off with no weapons.Gemma’s palms throbbed as she followed Nero down the stairs. Several Draconians caught up with the

“Who would have thought he’s that crazy woman’s boyfriend?”“How can she act like that when she has a boyfriend?”Gemma nodded, agreeing with Nero’s words. They left the laser tag arena as soon as the matter with the man was resolved.It turns out that after Gemma took Nero away from the woman named Angel; she called her boyfriend and said that Gemma had hurt her. Her boyfriend came to the laser tag arena not long after and insisted to take part in the game.The misunderstanding was resolved when Nero asked the manager to show the CCTV footage shortly after the briefing was done. It’s clear that Angel approached Gemma and Nero first and Gemma did nothing to her.“You should have asked for compensatory damage,” muttered Nero.“I don’t want to prolong the problem.” It’s as if Gemma hasn’t had much of a problem.Then Nero looked at Gemma, who was walking beside him. “Sorry. We failed to win the competition.”Gemma shrugged. “No problem,” she said. “There are many other ways to earn money

After registering, Gemma received a vest with a pentagon-shaped light on the chest. She put on the vest, then tied her hair with a rubber band that she carried around her wrist. Nero handed her a black laser gun with an arm-length rope. He attached the hook at the end of the rope to the hook on the front of Gemma’s vest. “The rules are simple. Point your gun at your opponent’s front, at the light on the vest,” Nero explained, pointing to the pentagon light on Gemma’s vest which now glowed aquamarine. The lamp is divided into five parts. “If all these lights go out, it means you lose and you have to quit the game.” Then Nero pointed towards the door that was opposite the entrance. The door was wide open, and Gemma could see expanses of clearing with tall trees growing within a few feet of each other. “We will do outdoor games. The team that retrieves the suitcase in the abandoned house, on the other end, will be the winner.” Gemma nodded, telling Nero she understood. As Gemma raised

Their first stop was the restaurant Gemma used to go to with Jo. This restaurant is always full at lunchtime, and most of the visitors are students and office workers who are taking a break. Gemma could only grumble inside her heart as pairs of eyes stared hungrily at Nero, as if he was the main dish in this place. If this had happened to Jo, Gemma would definitely nag and glare at those flirtatious girls. “Where do you want to sit?” asked Nero. They stopped in the middle of the restaurant and became the center of attention, like a Christmas tree with twinkling lights. Gemma looked around in a huff before grabbing Nero’s arm and leading him to a row of benches outside the restaurant. “Let’s sit here,” said Gemma. Then she dragged a stool near them and motioned for Nero to sit down. Nero offered a small smile before he sat down and that smile didn’t go away when Gemma sat across from him. “What is it?” Gemma asked, while side-eyeing from time to time at the group of students who wer

The bonus chapters are the story of Gemma and NeroIt seemed Gemma had just drifted off to sleep when her cell phone rang loudly. It sounded like a nuisance alarm that made Gemma let out a lazy moan. She reached out and groped over the nightstand for the noisy object. Gemma opened her still-heavy eyes to find out who the human dared to disturb her sleep. She saw Purity’s name on the phone screen. Gemma glanced at the corner of the phone screen and found that it was now the library rush hour. Maybe Purity needs her help.“What is it?” Gemma’s voice was hoarse as her throat felt as dry as a desert.“Someone’s looking for you.”“Who?” Gemma asked as she rolled over on the bed. One hand parted the curtain to look at the sky. Today is sunny. The atmosphere was so peaceful that Gemma couldn’t believe that last night a terrible tragedy had occurred at King’s Door. After this, she would call Jo to find out what happened last night.“The man who drove you earlier.”“Huh?”Hearing this, Gemma s
The Arc: Elenio (English) Epilogue
Slam!The door slammed shut in front of Gemma and Lysis. They looked at each other, exhaled a long breath that was a form of patience. At least, today’s rejection is not as much as yesterday’s.Lysis was holding a stack of leaflets in one hand, while the other was holding a plastic bag containing the ingredients for their dinner.“Shall we try a few more houses?” asked Lysis reluctantly. His face brightened as Gemma shook her head. Gemma stared intently at the leaflet she was holding until it was crumpled.PREPARE YOUR CHILDREN’S FUTURE, BECOME A TRUE ARCHTURIANThe title of the leaflet she made by racking her brains. But the rejection that she and Lysis experienced wasn’t solely because of a bad title. It was more for the parents in Fiend who never really thought much about their children.“Even though we’re having a free promo…,” Gemma whispered, her voice sounding hollow.They walked along the broken pavement in the neighborhood a few blocks from Gemma’s house.Lysis glanced at Gem
The Arc: Elenio (English) Don't Have Time to Say Goodbye
Gemma looked up at the sky, which was now filled with black shards. Everything sounded like a buzzing in her ears, and she didn’t close her eyes as the ashes from the shattered bodies of the Draconians hit her face. After that, she knew Jo came to her and hugged her, protecting her body from the black rain.The four of them walked to the front of the building and found the injured Archturians mingling with firefighters and paramedics. The lights from the ambulance sirens and the fire engines flickered alternately, briefly reminding Gemma of the lights in a nightclub. Jo’s arms were still around her shoulders, as if afraid that Gemma would fall if Jo let her go.Out of all the chaos, Gemma found people she knew gathered in a corner at the edge of the forest. Uncle Jonah and Sarah, and two paramedics, who were packing their equipment. One paramedic turned to call his other friend, while another paramedic spoke to Uncle Jonah with a sad expression on his face. They were swarming somethin
