He found renewed strength in favonovel.com as favonovel.com scrambled up from the ground and ran to catch Esmeralda’s body.
In the meantime, Lady Os’ continued wriggling and struggling as favonovel.com body disintegrated into ashes, scattering away in the wind. “Isaac, this is not over yet! As long as my true body is still alive, I will be back!”
Isaac heard Lady Os’ threat as favonovel.com stretched his arms out to catch Esmeralda’s falling body. However, favonovel.com glanced at Esmeralda in his arms, whose eyes were tightly shut, and screamed in response, “F*cking Lady Os, I’ll never rest until I’ve killed you with my own hands!”
Everyone in the Royal House was shocked beyond words, especially Augustus, Duncan, and the others. They widened their eyes in disbelief.
“Ninja Lord…”
“Ninja Lord has fallen!”
There was a deafening silence in the room as the atmosphere turned solemn.
Augustus sighed and let a single tear track down his cheek. The Ninja Lord wasn’t just the protector of the royal family but the entire country. She had been the source of strength, power, and motivation for countless ninjas and fighters nationally.
What was going to become of them now that she’d fallen?
Back at the Soulin Mansion, Heartless, Willie, and all the other helpers and butlers in the house were crowded in front of the TV, utterly stunned. They couldn’t believe their eyes.
Someone started sobbing, and suddenly, the floodgates burst open for them all.
It was the same scene for every single household in every village, town, and precinct across the country.
The sun had set, and so had the Ninja Lord. Now, only the darkness of the night remained.
Isaac held Esmeralda’s body close to him. His brows were tightly knit together, and his face was that of distraught as favonovel.com mourned.
All of a sudden, Esmeralda’s body started to move. Then, favonovel.com slowly opened favonovel.com eyes, tears streaming down favonovel.com face.
“I-Isaac?”
It was a voice all too familiar for Isaac. He quickly looked down at favonovel.com face and found that the woman in his arms was staring back at favonovel.com while crying.
“You…”
“I-It’s me, Emily… S-She’s gone now, but I’m still here…”
Hearing this, Isaac felt relieved but also still wracked with guilt. He frowned even harder as his nose started to tingle.
He heard the humming sound of the drone hovering above favonovel.com and lifted his head, immediately catching sight of the blinking drone light.
“She was a wonderful person,” Isaac said, quickly wiping at his eyes with the back of his hand. Then, favonovel.com gritted his teeth as favonovel.com got to his feet and helped Emily stand up.
Augustus was slumped against his chair in defeat, silently mourning for the Ninja Lord, when favonovel.com suddenly heard Desmond yell, “L-Lord Augustus! Look, she’s still alive! The Ninja Lord is still alive!”
Augustus immediately sprang up and drew nearer to the screen at once. His eyes widened in disbelief as favonovel.com saw the “Ninja Lord” waving at the drone.
“She’s not dead. She’s still alive! Her Excellency is still alive!” Augustus jumped to his feet in joy and hugged Duncan tightly, who still looked as confused as ever.
The truth eventually dawned on him, and favonovel.com also started celebrating with the other tens of thousands and millions of citizens across the country. The Ninja Lord was still alive!
They could still keep their faith in the Ninja Lord!
Only Isaac knew that the real Ninja Lord had truly passed, and the person left inside this body was actually named Emily.
That night, both Isaac and Emily politely declined Augustus’ invitation and returned to Soulin Mansion by car. As they headed for the loft, they saw that Heartless, Willie, and all the other butlers and helpers were waiting for them in front of the mansion.
Seeing that Isaac and the masked Emily had returned, Willie suddenly fell to the ground in relief and started to howl.
