Love At The Wrong Table

The Tide Turns

Solana and the others gasped instinctively.

However, the members of the Black Wolf Team remained silent and showed

no concern for their leader, for worrying about a king was laughable.

Xarri’s form shifted, appearing to dodge the incoming projectiles while

actually catching them with his hands, suddenly preparing to counterattack.

Night Fox, having anticipated this, smugly used Quell’s body as a shield in

front of him. But to his surprise, Xarri’s projectiles were aimed at the Airspace

guards behind him, taking out an enemy with each shell.

The screams disrupted Night Fox’s rhythm, and before he could react to the

powerful presence approaching, Xarri was already in front of him.

With two swift jabs of his fingers through the air…

Thud! Thud!

Night Fox, though untouched, felt two sharp pains in his body. If not for his

extraordinary combat instincts, he would have been hit in his vital points and

ended up dead.

“Die!”

For Xarri, to shout out loud was a rare occurrence, revealing the depth of his

anger.

Appalled, Night Fox immediately released Quell and shifted all his focus to

defending against Xarri’s attacks. But the instant he let go, he realized he had

been outsmarted.

Xarri swiftly pulled his sister back and, with a single strike, forced Night Fox to

retreat.

In just a brief exchange, Night Fox, who had been holding a hostage, found

himself being pushed back and left in a pitiful state by Xarri. The injured

Alliance fighters erupted in excitement, their morale soaring as they stood

back up.

“Hmph, do you see the true might of the Black Wolf Team’s leader now?” Aqua

sneered with her arms akimbo. “And just so you know, we have a new leader

who’s ten times stronger than you!”

“That’s right!”

“You’re the weakest Black Wolf Team leader we’ve ever seen!”

“No wonder you were forgotten so quickly!”

Everyone joined in, returning all the arrogance and mockery the Black Wolf

Team had received earlier. It was as if the frustration in their hearts had been

instantly vented, bringing them immense satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Night Fox, furious and humiliated, barked orders, “Fire! Kill them

all!”

The Airspace guards behind him finally reacted. But before they could act,

the remnants of the Alliance fighters from downstairs stormed up.

Seeing that, Quell finally understood why her brother had arrived late,

exclaiming in surprise, “So you were downstairs helping to kill the enemy,

Xarri!”

Without an elite expert leading the charge, the remaining Alliance fighters

would never have made it upstairs.

“Quell, I’m leaving this place to you!”

With chaos all around, Xarri knew it wasn’t the time for a reunion. After

draping his coat over his sister, he turned his attention back onto Night Fox.

Night Fox shuddered slightly, but he didn’t cower before Xarri and instead

sneered coldly, “You’re impressive; certainly worthy of a duel with me. If you’re

not a coward, come in!” With that, he retreated into his special room.

“Xarri, make sure you kill him and press the dock switch by 6 p.m. sharp!”

Quell shouted as she fought off enemies.

“Understood!”

However, Xarri didn’t rush in immediately. Instead, he cleared out the

remaining enemies with the others, ensuring a safe environment for his

comrades before he would confront Night Fox.

There were still nearly four hours until 6 p.m., and Xarri knew his battle with

Night Fox, regardless of the outcome, would not take that long.

This battle had reached a critical point for the Alliance. Victory couldn’t be

secured by dominating just one front–they had to win on all five to achieve

the final victory. On the other hand, the Airspace Group’s defenders only

needed to hold one point and wait for reinforcements to arrive to claim

victory! The conditions for victory were starkly unequal.

“Did you see that?”

In the central tower of the island, Emmanuel and the Queen of the Dark Night

Islands remained in a standoff.

The Wolf Warrior rarely killed women unless they were enemy operatives or

irredeemably evil. Freya certainly fell into the latter category. However,

because she and Hattie looked nearly identical, he had momentarily paused

to save the day.

“I believe victory will be ours!” Emmanuel declared with renewed conviction.

“I’ll kill you now and find the button to activate the dock!”
