[Bonus chapter] Ruining Demonmir’s Plans
Nysa saw the opportunity to strike, particularly since Adam was among them, aiming to prevent his escape.
Nysa explained to Arthur that she had assumed dealing with the Layos Rankers would be relatively easy, considering their recent involvement in a significant battle.
Regrettably, Nysa's efforts ended up in vain. Adam managed to escape. He had suffered injuries in Nysa's hands. But they weren't substantial enough to prevent his departure. The outcome left Nysa visibly disappointed. She and her team did manage to eliminate a few Layos Rankers, but Adam slipped through their grasp.
As Nysa relayed the sequence of events to Arthur, her account resonated with him. The order Arthur had issued years ago had been driven by the fresh wounds of his son's loss and the sting of betrayal from those he had trusted. Although a decade had passed and circumstances had evolved, Arthur understood the importance of honoring his previous decree.
