Hours after lift-off, once Magnum Opus Fx3 had settled in the air, Angelina came out of her cabin which was comparable to an average size house. Due to the extent of her journey, she decided to explore the largest aircraft in the world with her former squad members. Under normal circumstance, she wouldn’t be able to travel inside such a magnificent aircraft without selling an arm, thus she wanted to enjoy all of it.

Angelina went to search for Cockroach and the others after exiting her cabin. Because of her residence being above theirs, she had to take a lift down to the lower levels. Unexpectedly, she ran into Resotnero on her way to the elevator.

“Eh, rat-boy?” Angelina took notice of Resotnero boastfully leaning against a guard rail while chatting up a brunette babe. She acted as if she didn’t see him and continued walking ahead. At that time, Angelina wasn’t wearing her battle gear and helmet. Because of this, many Tomb Riders didn’t know who she was for they haven’t seen her naked face before. Her advance was smooth and casual until Resotnero who had laid eyes on her true appearance recognized her passing along the platform.

“A.J?” Resotnero spotted her approach, abandoned the brunette he was chatting with and hurriedly stepped out in front of Angelina, halting her advance.

“You, don’t you have anything better to do? Why are you blocking my path? Do you find me infatuating that much? Sorry but I’m not into little boys.” Angelina tried walking around Resotnero, however, he stretched his arms apart like an eagle and prevented her from advancing. With a grin on his face he said:

“You’re not into little boys, eh? It’s funny you should mention that.” Resotnero got closer to Angelina’s ear. “I saw you that night at the party fervently sucking on White Demon’s tongue. I’m fully aware that women are your thing. Don’t worry, your secret is safe with me.”

“You…?” Angelina’s face got upset when she heard this. “You don’t know me rat-boy and who I like is none of your damn business. Outta my way!” She exclaimed then pushed him aside, but Resotnero’s rollerblade gang stepped in and blocked her path by forming a horizontal line.

“Fhmhaha. Where do you think you are going, little lady?”

“Yeah, stay right here and entertain us, grown men.”

“By the way, Resotnero who is this chick? Something about her spunkiness seems familiar. Is she one of your Ex or something?”

Resotnero smirked and answered: “You could say that. We go way back, ain’t that right, A.J?”

Angelina glared at Resotnero smirking face along with his followers who were blocking her path. “I’m warning you, uncouth slackers. Get out of my way before I…”

“Before you what, eh?” One of Resotnero’s goons spoke up suddenly while stepping forward with permeated aggression. “This little lady has quite the mouthpiece on her face, doesn’t she? Allow me to put your mouth to good use, woman.” He reached out his big arm to grab Angelina by the head. He intended to have her apply for a blowjob at his pubic establishment.

“You dare!” Angelina was about to call out her dark blade to slice the perverted arms of Resotnero’s goons when unexpectedly a huge blue horse-shaped motor came from behind and knocked the muscular pervert away along with the others.

“Move it you scums!” Sitting astride the horse motor was a suave mature man completely donned in brilliant armour. When the crowd on the platform recognized his domineering aura, they cleared a path in haste. He advanced passed Angelina after giving her a curt gaze.

“That man… who was he?” Angelina wondered about the mysterious man’s identity who had prevented her from cutting up Resotnero’s goon. Shortly after, she heard the surrounding Tomb Riders gossiping.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

“Hey, wasn’t that man riding a sapphire horse motor just now?”

“Indeed. That motor is so rare and expensive, only a handful of Tomb Riders possess one. I heard only 3 alone were manufactured recently. They are not easy to come by.”

“Wait a minute. I’ve just now remembered seeing that man somewhere. It was from a trending video clip 3 years ago. The sapphire horse rider clad in brilliant armour who dominated the international Ghoul Grand Prix tournament!”

“The international Ghoul Grand Prix from 3 years ago? Then that would mean that man was the famed Armoured Hero!”

“Really? The Armoured Hero? That was him? I can’t believe I got bumped into by such an extraordinary Tomb Rider!”

“But why is there a pro Tomb Rider of his calibre on this vessel? I thought this tour was meant only for mid-level Tomb Riders. This doesn’t make any sense.”

“Could it be…?” After acquiring the identity of the Armoured Hero from listening to the gossip passing around her, Angelina thought of a suitable reason why he might be joining them on the trip. “There must be others like him who are going to participate in the upcoming Ghoul Graveyard expedition. I could tell by his glance that he was very formidable. Will I be able to keep up?”

Angelina reflected on her aptitudes and capabilities while entering the side elevator alone. She was nervously thinking about her inadequacies. “Probably I shouldn’t have rushed things. No! No! What am I talking about? I have to rescue my father as soon as possible. This is a golden opportunity for me. After what I’ve done to get here, I won’t turn back. I will see this through to the very end.”

While the elevator travelled downwards, Angelina searched for latent strength to add to her resolve. Before boarding Magnum Opus Fx3 she went through rigorous training to boost her skills and determination. Day and night she would spend in the arcade battling against powerful ghoul monsters. She even ruined some of her gears which she had to take to Mawol’s Ghoul Gear Shop for repairing and upgrading.

Angelina’s original Motors Cube was back in her possession again after Mawol finished with the upgrades. It took him some trial and errors but he successfully managed to implement an aeronautical component to her outdated Motors Cube. Angelina was reluctant to part with it because it was a gift from her father just before he went missing. Was she a filial daughter or what?

After the elevator came to a halt, Angelina came out and went to look for her comrades. She met up with Cockroach and the others at a nearby snack department. From there they began their tour of the gigantic transport vessel.

There was so much to see and experienced on-board the Magnum Opus Fx3. It was similar to an amusement park that had lots of fun activities and chill areas. Many Tomb Riders were using their motors to get around the spacious vessel. If they were to walk, it would take them too long to tour around.

“Eh, isn’t that…?” From a remote area on-board the vessel, Unruly Ban spotted Angelina accompanied by her crew riding into a nearby Ghoul Gear Shop below him. “What is that mysterious slut up to?” Unruly Ban let his inquisitiveness set his feet into motion. As he was about to descend the escalator and follow Angelina into the Ghoul Gear Shop, he felt a piercing gaze penetrated his body from behind.

The moment Unruly Ban turned around, he almost stumbled backwards due to the trepidation that bombarded him. “M-Meliodas! What are you doing here?” Unruly Ban’s face was pale, moreover, drained of all essence upon realizing the brutal presence of his big brother.

“Hm?” Meliodas gave a stern glare to Unruly Ban who was cowering below him and said: “Why can’t I be here? Is this your airship?”

Unruly Ban hurriedly responded to his brother’s comment. “No! No! That’s not what I meant. I just wasn’t aware that you would also visit the Ghoul Graveyard site along with us.”

“Fhm.” Meliodas scoffed at Unruly Ban. “Unlike you excited puppies I’m not here to tour the site, rather to explore what is beyond the Ghoul Graveyard.”

Hearing this, made Unruly Ban’s ears stun. “Meliodas you’re also taking part in the upcoming Ghoul Graveyard expedition? How come you managed to score a pass?”

“You dare question my aptitude, brat? Do you think that I’m an unqualified runt like you? Humph! Piss off!” Meliodas pushed Unruly Ban out of his way and continued walking down the escalator with his minions following closely behind.

“Brother wait!” Unruly Ban abandoned his bewildered crew members and quickly caught up with Meliodas. “I want to join the expedition. Can you pull some strings to get me inside?”

“Puwahahaha! This little runt wants to join the expedition?” Meliodas followers started laughing at Unruly Ban. On the other hand, Meliodas didn’t say anything but continued moving at his own pace.
