She absolutely didn’t want to be attending Jonah Rivers’ memorial next year on this day. Jonah saw it, but didn’t dodge. The battle intent in his eyes was even more intense. As The Asura of Nightfall, he has never retreated during a mission, not even in the face of death. Not to mention that death wasn’t certain. Though Nameless, the Lord of the Dark Tower, was not easy to deal with, he wasn’t without a chance at this close distance. Control the Lord of the Dark Tower, and everything is possible. Raina North didn’t miss Jonah’s reaction. As his former life-and-death partner, she understood exactly what his reaction meant. Raina stood in front of Elias Hawthorne, eyes filled with vigilance as she looked at Jonah Rivers, "Jonah, some things you better not do." Jonah glanced at Raina, a dark glint flashing in his eyes. Just now when Raina faced him, her mind was filled with the single thought of escape. Not just because her skills weren’t as good as his, but more importantly, she was holding back on their past camaraderie, not wanting to confront him. Yet, Raina had changed now, her battle spirit soaring high, seemingly ready to charge at him if he made even the slightest move. The reason for this change was the man in front of her. Jonah no longer wanted to wait, eager to test Elias Hawthorne. Not just for the current mission, but more importantly for Raina. He wanted to see what was so special about the man who made Raina act so strangely. Soon, Jonah’s aura swiftly intensified. Raina couldn’t help but curse softly. What was this lunatic up to? Out of nowhere, he was serious? Raina didn’t attempt to persuade Jonah again. She knew in her heart that at this point, words were useless. Raina gritted her teeth, steeling her resolve for a fierce fight! Just as she was about to charge at Jonah, a hand suddenly pressed down on her shoulder. Raina furrowed her brow, "He’s dangerous." The name The Asura was never a joke. Raina was slightly stunned, and before she could react, Elias had already stepped forward. Jonah saw this scene, his gaze becoming even colder, "Be careful." As the words left his mouth, he darted forward like a phantom. Elias brazenly met him head-on. The two entangled in a fight, their moves as swift and fierce as a storm, dazzlingly intense. A few minutes later, they separated. Jonah stumbled back several steps while Elias stood still, yet blood trickled from the corner of his lips. Raina hurriedly came over, holding Elias’s arm, looking at him worriedly, "Are you alright?" The most update n0vels are published on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net "Fine." He said this, though more blood was flowing from the corner of his lips. Jonah’s gaze towards Elias changed, "You’re strong." Pausing, he added, "But next, be careful, I’m going to be serious." "Stop!" Raina shouted, "Jonah, stop messing around!" Jonah didn’t heed her at all. Just as he was about to attack again, the communicator suddenly rang. It was Corvus Hades calling. Raina recognized it too and wished she could rush over to snatch the communicator, to prevent Corvus from stirring up trouble. Corvus was an expert at sowing chaos. However, Raina soon found herself relieved at not acting impulsively. She heard Corvus on the communicator saying, "Come back; that’s it for tonight."
