Alyssa trapped Ironskull in a chokehold between her legs.

The smell of the ocean filled his nostrils.

“Ironskull!” Despite his timidity, Ostrich attempted to rescue his companion.

Before he could react, Alphonso ambushed him from behind, causing him to

crash to the ground.

Alyssa twisted her body, and the impact sent Ironskull crashing to the

ground.

In a matter of moments, the two members of Black Wolf were incapacitated.

“Help!”

“The Shadow Clan has shown up in our territory!”

“They may be targeting the food warehouse!”

The warehouse workers hurriedly reported to Aqua.

“What?” The news shocked her. She pressed them for details. “What about

Ironskull and Ostrich?”

“They’re confronting the invaders, but it doesn’t look good!”

“Oh no!” She panicked and rushed into the headquarters.

“Quell! Vachon! TriSec!”

The room was empty. Nobody answered her.

A bad feeling grasped her. The others must’ve headed to the arena.

The arena and the food warehouse were on different sides of the compound.

The time was ticking away, she couldn’t afford to leave Ironskull and Ostrich

alone to locate the trio.

“What’s the matter, Aqua?” At that moment, Emmanuel’s voice snapped her

out of her trance.

He needed to find a way to coordinate Black Wolf, unite the forces on Dark

Night Islands, and overthrow the Airspace Group to save Mackenzie.

Therefore, he aimed to win the battle tonight.

First, he must become the leader of last year’s winning team to rule the

forces on the Dark Night Islands.

“Ironskull and Ostrich are-” Aqua didn’t finish her words.

“What happened to them?”

He picked up on her uneasiness and furrowed his brows, sensing something

was going on.

“It’s nothing!” she denied, fearing the information would distract him from

facing Quell in the battle.

If so, Vachon and his men wouldn’t acknowledge Quell even if she became

the leader.

The worst–case scenario would be the Black Wolf falling apart as the new

leader wasn’t being chosen, resulting in them being unqualified to participate

in the upcoming duel tomorrow night.

Next, the Black Wolf fraction would be disbanded, and the other fractions

would conquer their territory.

Emmanuel didn’t press her for answers.

“Let’s head to the arena!” Aqua pulled him along with her.

Emmanuel and Quell can rescue Ironskull and Ostrich together as soon as

they conclude the duel.

However, as they stepped out of the building, a member rushed over to hand

them a piece of bloody cloth.

Her face paled at its content.

Her expression cemented Emmanuel’s idea that something was going on. He

snatched the cloth and discovered words written in blood on it.

‘Come to the border within half an hour if you wish to save Ironskull and

Ostrich.‘

Aqua feared he would act impulsively and rush to their rescue, so she tugged

at his sleeve. “Emmanuel, you need to see the bigger picture! We must

decide on a new leader tonight.”

“They’re our comrades.” His simple words struck a chord with her.

He didn’t wait for her response and immediately headed to the border.

Her eyes welled up with tears at his retreating figure as if she was seeing

Xarri again.

Both men embodied great loyalty.

Even though the two had a history with him, he didn’t hesitate to rescue them

when they were in peril. It’s an important trait of a good leader.

At the bridgehead on the Shadow Clan’s side lay Ironskull and Ostrich, barely

breathing. The blood from their wounds pointed the water beneath them rød.

They struggled to keep their eyes open, feeling their life draining away.

“It seems like the Black Wolf has abandoned these losers,” Alphonso

remarked with his arms crossed, a look of disdain flashed across his face.

“Indeed, Vachon solely focuses on becoming the leader while Quell is a lone

wolf. They’re too busy to pay attention to these two.”
