Rhett watched Xan, his eyes filled with a mix of pity and resignation. The
determination in Xanâs gaze was unwavering, a stark contrast to the despair
that had consumed him. As Rhett knew Xan better than anyone, he
understood the depths of his despair. Stopping him now would only delay the
inevitable. It was better to let him leave on his own terms, with a shred of
dignity intact.
Sqwelp!
Xanâs movement was swift and decisive. With a single, practiced motion, he
plunged the dagger into his abdomen, falling to his knees at the western gate. His life ebbed away, leaving a chilling silence in his wake.
Falcon turned, his eyes fixed on the tragic scene. He knelt, offering three
solemn bows to honor Xanâs sacrifice. The Alliance fighters stood in stunned silence, their grief palpable.
âLetâs go,â Rhett said, lifting his body onto a horse. âHis final resting place

should be in the land of the Ophanim Clan.â

At the eastern base, Emmanuel arrived just as the Airspace Group forces
were overrun. The survivors surrendered without a fight.
Outside a room, Emmanuelâs voice echoed, âQuintus, find a way out! Break a
window if you have to! I canât come in unless you get out!
Inside, Quintus faced an elderly man, one of the original experts brought to
the Dark Night Islands. The old man was no longer fit for the Airspace Groupâs
ideals, but his skills were undeniable.
âThe Queen of the Dark Night Islands is dead,â the old man said, his voice
calm. âLeave and send someone worthy.â
Quintus scoffed. âYou underestimate me, old man.â
Ive been waiting for a young warrior who could defeat me,â the old man
replied, his tone unchanged. âBut itâs clear youâre not the one.â

He wasnât out to mock Quintus. He was merely speaking his mind.

âHa! Youâre wrong!â Quintus retorted, rising to his feet. His martial skills were
no match for the old manâs, but he could take a beating.
The old man hadnât gone for the kill, so Quintus, though battered and bruised,
was still standing. âOh, youâre still not giving up?â the old man asked. âThere
are only 20 minutes left until 6 a.m. If you donât open the dockyard, youâll lose
any chance of escape.â
âTwenty minutes? Thatâs all I need!â Quintus grinned.
His hands crackled with energy as he smirked. âI was in the dark at the
beginning, not knowing that smashing the device was the answer, which is
I
why I couldnât do anything. But an hour ago, I caught on. Yet, I didnât destroy it. Any guesses, old man?â
The old man hesitated, narrowing his eyes. âOh? Think youâve got the guts for
that?â
Mon,

âYou bet I do!â Quintus chuckled. âI just wanted to wear you out. Thereâs a
saying in Chanaea: âA wild flurry can take down even a master.â Give me two
more hours, and Iâll tire you out, no matter what! Your weak punches canât
take me down!â
The old manâs expression hardened. âIf you insist, the entire Alliance will be
trapped here because of you. Youâll bear all the blame. And once I kill you, I
wonât be merciful enough to toss your body outside!â
âQuintus, donât be reckless! Get out now!â Sunnyâs voice called out from
outside.
Others wanted to shout as well. This wasnât just his battle; the fate of the
entire Alliance hung in the balance. How could they let one man risk it all?
But Emmanuel knew Quintusâ stubborn nature well. Raising a hand, he
signaled the others to stay quiet. âAs the commander of the Eastern Route, I
take full responsibility for anything that happens!â
To them, Emmanuel was the ultimate leader, their absolute ruler.

âHa haâ¦â Quintus laughed frenziedly. âIf Iâm going to die, so be it! As we say in
Chanaea, âIf I donât go to hell, who will?â Bring it on!â
With a crazed grin, Quintus charged at the old man like an unstoppable bull.
