Chapter 243
Confrontation
The pirates, who had initially been relaxed and arrogant, suddenly grew tense.
Seraphina smirked. They weren't helpless, and these pirates weren't invincible.
Kaveh was stunned by what was happening. He quickly positioned himself next to Seraphina, helping her pin down the man on the ground. Seraphina gave him an approving glance.
The pirate across from them cursed. His cold, sharp gaze locked on Seraphina.
This damned b*tch!
Their guns weren't just for show. The next second, bullets could be flying from the barrels.
"Are you asking for death? Let him go!" One of the pirates barked.
Seraphina's eyes were icy as she struck the man on the ground with her gun. She sneered coldly and demanded, "I want a helicopter." "Not a chancel"
One of the pirates spat, cursing her for dreaming so wildly.
Threaten pirates on their own turf?
She was trying to get herself killed!
Seraphina didn't actually expect them to give in to her outrageous demand.
When she had some leverage, the fear she had felt earlier started to fade.
One of the pirates shouted into the distance. Immediately, the men on the submarine mobilized.
Their trained and ruthless response sent a wave of cold dread through the air, as countless gun barrels were soon aimed directly at Seraphina.
The tension between them was palpable. Dark clouds loomed over the sea, and though a storm seemed imminent, the ocean itself was eerily calm, as if foreshadowing the violence about to unfold. In the silence, eyes locked in a deadly stare. The air grew thick with tension, heavy with the threat of
violence.
The pirates, who were well-trained and merciless, stood on one side..
Seraphina, the lone survivor, washed ashore and stood on the other side.
There wasn't a trace of fear in her eyes. Her hands held the gun steady, she pressed the barrel against the pirate's head beneath her foot, and she ensured he didn't dare to move. She lifted her eyes. As dozens of guns trained on her, her gaze remained unwavering and composed.

Seraphina glanced at Kaveh and spoke in Ascotia language, knowing the pirates wouldn't understand. "Don't be afraid. Stand beside me. If they start shooting run into the woods and don't look back."
The forest behind them offered a better chance of escanc.
Kaveh was shocked. As an adventurer, he had faced many dangers.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
He had survived the merciless challenges of nature, with no food, no water, and no fire.
Kaveh had endured attacks from tribes, fallen off cliff's, and even survived pirate raids on the Now, he was terrified to his core.
It was a suffocating fear, the kind that numbed the scalp and sent chills through his body. Humans always experience fear and helplessness when faced with death.
This scene was one that even Winterwood couldn't capture.
Yet this delicate, seemingly fragile woman told him... what?
Don't be afraid.
To stand behind her?
Run, and don't look back.
open sea.
Kaveh gritted his teeth. He forced himself to stand up. Resolve gradually took the place of the panic and. terror in his eyes. How could he let a woman stand in front of him?
"I won't run. I promised I would protect you!"
His voice was firm. He had only said it casually before, but now he clung to that promise with all his might.
Seraphina wanted to tell him to run so that at least one of them would survive,
Before she could speak, the pirate across from them, impatient, barked out an order
"Enough talk-just fire!"
