Chapter 260 260 A Risky Move
Nexus understood her desire to protect him and said, "I know you do, Crystal, but for now, let me handle this. I've got some new tricks up my sleeve. I'll be fine."
"I know," she conceded softly, "but if you ever need help, don't hesitate to ask."
Nexus appreciated her unwavering support, knowing she was willing to go to great lengths to protect him. "Thank you, Crystal. I promise I will reach out if I need assistance."
He went on to recount his encounter with Stacy, describing their battles and their meetings with the monster. Nexus knew that he could confide in Crystal; she was the only one he could trust with these crucial details.
He was aware that sharing such information with others could jeopardize his safety. With the reduction in his available cards and the looming threat of Fitch, revealing his true identity as Nexus could prove deadly.
Once the explanation was complete, Crystal looked at him with determination. "I understand you, Nexus. You're doing what's necessary, and I respect that. But I want to assist in protecting you and keeping an eye out for Fitch and his men."
Nexus was touched by her loyalty. He smiled warmly and replied, "I knew I could count on you. We'll work together to safeguard my identity."
Nexus smiled, appreciating Crystal's unwavering loyalty and love. "I knew I could count on you," he said, leaning in for a passionate kiss. Their lips met, the intensity of their connection palpable as he moved to suck on her inviting soft neck.
Crystal moans in pleasure as she enjoyed the feel of his tongue on her skin. She was already hungry from him and her pussy vibrated with the longing.
With one last lingering kiss, Crystal broke away and said, "Let me get some food for you. You must be famished." She was so happy that Nexus was so good to her, her feeling for him were now far from Master and servant.
As he sat there watching her walk away with swaying seductive hips, he couldn't help but think about his plans. He knew that, at this point, he had an advantage. There was a gap in information, and the Golden Bell's reward gave him a limited three-minute defense.
Fitch was the only threat that loomed large, and Nexus had a plan to play the third party, using his new identity as Master Ni-Yang to protect the Russells from the shadows.
"Three minutes," he mused, his thoughts forming into monologue. "A brief window of protection against the SSS-ranked Golden Bell. I can't afford to waste it."
Fitch, the formidable adversary who loomed over the Russells, was the primary threat. Nexus knew that confronting him directly might be futile. He had to think of a strategy that would turn the tables in his favor.
Nexus leaned back in his chair, deep in contemplation. "Drawing Fitch into the octopus monster's path… It's a risky move."
He knew that putting this plan into action would require careful execution. The octopus monster was a formidable opponent, and it could pose a significant threat to anyone.
However, Nexus believed that if he played his cards right, he could use the chaos to his advantage. He was confident in his ability to navigate through high-pressure situations and make quick decisions.
Intrigued by his own idea, Nexus continued his internal monologue, "If I can draw Fitch near the octopus monster, I might just have a chance. The creature is relentless, and Fitch won't be able to escape its clutches." He understood the peril involved, but he was willing to take that risk.
His mind raced as he considered the possible scenarios. "I can use the Golden Bell's SSS-ranked defenses to dodge the monster's attacks. It's a dangerous plan, but it's the only one I have."
Nexus was well aware of Fitch's cunning nature, and he knew that underestimating him would be a grave mistake. "Fitch is no fool; he's a sly and shrewd adversary. He won't be an easy one to outwit."
As he contemplated the risky plan, Nexus realized that he had to direct a realistic drama. He needed to set the stage carefully, luring Fitch into the treacherous situation he had in mind. He knew that every detail had to be orchestrated perfectly for the plan to succeed.
Nexus was aware that using Stacy to take on Fitch was an option, but it posed its own challenges. "Stacy, as powerful as she is, can't be my weapon against the Howards. She sees me as her master, and it wouldn't make sense to involve her in this feud. Besides, Fitch may have hidden cards of his own, and I'm not entirely certain about taking his life."
He needed a different approach, one that would keep her safe and preserve her loyalty.
Deep in thought, Nexus continued his internal dialogue. "Stacy may not be ready to take on such a dangerous foe. I need to find a way to handle this situation without putting her at risk."
As he considered his options, Crystal entered the room, holding a tray of food. Her presence broke the silence, and Nexus looked up at her with a warm smile.
Crystal noticed the pensive expression on his face. "What's on your mind?" she asked as she set the tray down.
Nexus welcomed the distraction, knowing that he could trust Crystal with his concerns. "I'm thinking about the future and the challenges that lie ahead. Fitch is a formidable opponent, and I need to find a way to deal with him without putting anyone at risk."
Crystal nodded in understanding. "We'll figure it out together. You have me by your side, and I'll do whatever it takes to help you."
Nexus appreciated her unwavering support. "Thank you, Crystal. I'm lucky to have you with me. We'll find a way to protect the Russells and ensure a safe future for all of us."
Crystal reached out and gently touched Nexus's hand. "I am here to help Master," she said with a smile on her face.
As Nexus finished his meal, he felt a renewed strength and decided to take a stroll through the Russels' garden. The moment he stepped into the lush greenery, he was greeted by a breathtaking sight.
The garden was a paradise of vibrant colors and fragrant blooms, a testament to the care and dedication that had gone into its maintenance. It was a living canvas, painted with a myriad of flowers in full bloom, their petals dancing gently in the breeze.
Butterflies flitted from one flower to another, creating a harmonious dance of nature, adding to the garden's ethereal beauty. He was surrounded by the melodious hum of bees busy at work, and the sweet scent of flowers filled the air.
There were roses in shades of red, pink, and white, irises with intricate patterns, and tulips in a rainbow of colors. It was a garden that seemed to embrace life in all its forms.
Nexus marveled at the stunning display of nature as he continued his walk.
