Gerald is back leading the life. In the dream, Gerald saw himself brandishing a sword at Regis. Gerald's eyes were filled with murderous desire.
"What do you want, my brother?"ask the gentle brother. Regis smiled at Gerald. Undeterred to see the sword before his eyes.
"If you want the throne willingly I'll release it for you" Regis said. His softness of speech did not change. The affection of a brother was clearly visible in his eyes.
"I want Xena!"answer Gerald.
"Me and Xena are married. I can relinquish the throne but not with my wife" Regis replied, shaking her head slowly.
*Gerald closed his eyes at the rejection.
"Then I can just kill you*!"
"Don't do it, Gerald. If you kill me you'll lose me and Xena too. You'll only get hate from him. You'll get the nickname tyrant. Please do not sacrifice happiness all this time," said Regis persuaded. Trying to soften Gerald's already determined violence.
Gerald laughed cynically. "You think seeing you with him makes me happy?! I don't care what matters Xena is with me! Fight me, Brother!"
Gerald moved his sword. Regis. Both fighting. Attack each other and defend. Gerald's attack was aggressive, enough to trouble Regis.
"Stop, Gerald! Be aware! Don't follow your lust!"shout Regis. He did not expect his only sister would do something like this.
"I liked it first! He should be with me. Brother die for my happiness and Xena!"
Keuk!
Ughhhh!
Gerald attacks while Regis is out of focus, stabbing Regis in the heart. Regis' eyes were wide. He knelt down for a moment.
Fresh blood came out from his mouth as well as his wounds. The tip of the sword drained Regis' blood.
"R-REGIST!!"
Roxena shouted loudly seeing that.
"Dam!" Gerald replied. Gerald turned his face to Roxena.
Her eyes are red. More sayu. "Xena." Ogre. Her tears began to fall. The sword that Gerald used was already covered with poison. It won't survive.
"REGIST!"
Roxena pushes Gerald and holds Regis. "Regis! Hang on, I'll take you to the doctor!" Roxena's tears broke to see the present Gerald.
"X-Xena," called Gerald softly, trying to touch Roxena's face with her bloodied hands. "J-ja-ngan me-na-ngis."
"Ki-ta a-kan berte-mu la-gi."
Roxena shook her head hard. He doesn't want to. Regis's hand that touched her cheek fell off. Followed by Regis's last breath.
"NO! DON'T GO, REGIS! DON'T LEAVE ME! HICK!"
"REGITTY!"
"YOU PROMISED TO LIVE WITH ME! HOW CAN YOU A SWORD MASTER RENEGE ON YOUR PROMISE! AWAKE, REGIS! AWAKE UP!! I ORDER YOU TO WAKE UP!!"
"DON'T LEAVE ME!"
"DARKHHH!"
Gerald woke up from his sleep. Breath roaring. The dream was really terrible. He saw clearly the look of Regis' desperate eyes but did not disappear his affection for Gerald. Then a clear look at Roxena who was sick and very lost to Gerald. Still remembered clearly Roxena's hysterical cries and screams. Then .. The most terrible thing is himself. The one with a big smile saw Roxena hugging the lifeless Regis. Then I say, "i won."
"I'm so horrible" muttered Gerald, afraid of himself.
Then ... he just realized someone was grasping his fingers. Roxena slept by his side. Carefully, Gerald reached out to touch Roxena's face. At first he doubted. Gerald was afraid that this was just an illusion.
However, once he felt Roxena's body temperature, he was sure. Slowly he could smile. "In this life I didn't take you. I will break through the mistakes and also make you happy, Xena. Thank you for believing in me."
After that, Gerald laid his body back. The dream earlier and before he was unconscious really drained his emotions. He who was initially afraid to close his eyes can fall back asleep because his fingers are linked to Roxena's fingers.
Roxena opened her eyes. He heard Gerald's words. The owner of the net hazel worked his eyes slowly, expressing a cold expression as if Gerald's words did not touch him.
"Yes." Yeah."

"Ughhh!"
"Sheel!" Regis who was not moving from his place immediately realized Elisha who had just realized.
Elisha worked on his eyes that felt blurry. And Regis's voice calls are becoming clearer. "Regis."
"Gee! Thank goodness you were conscious. I'm so worried about you."
"What happened to me?"ask Elisha.
"You fainted. I thought you and your baby were in trouble but thank God you're sober. Everything's fine." Relief emanated from Regis. His fingers clasped Elisha's fingers, looking at him lovingly.
"How long have I been unconscious?"
"One night."
"One night." Elisha frowned. Remembering things before he was unconscious.
"Gerald where is he now?!"
Suddenly Regis' expression darkened.
"Why ask about him? He betrayed you. She's forgotten about you, Elisha!"
"No, Regis! Gerald. His brain washed the bad woman!"
"You fool, Elisha!"regis's emotions with his low voice.
"Help me, Regis! Please." Elisha clasped Regis' fingers tightly. She stared at him expectantly.
"He doesn't want to. I can't force! You have me anyway" Regis refused. He saw Gerald's attitude yesterday. Regis doesn't want to repeat the same mistake again.
"Enough, Elisha. Calm yourself. You think it's easy to kidnap Gerald? They have returned to Spain. My powers can't reach him."
"Regis." Elisa is desperate. Gerald is gone. What's to be done?
Huh!
Regis let out a rough sigh then pulled Elisha to sit on his lap. Regis hugged Elisha dear.
"It's okay. Crying away. It's not good for pregnant women to hold back their emotions."
"Regis, Gerald .. hiks .. hiks …."
"It's okay. We're looking for another chance."
"You're gonna keep helping me?"
"Hm."
"Hiks .. Regis."

"You want to go again?"gerald asked to see Roxena who did not get out of the car. They arrived in the basement of the apartment.
"I have business. I'll be right back" Roxena replied.
"Then be careful."
Roxena nodded small. Erin drove the car out of the basement. Gerald took it off with an unwilling look. They just got better, wanted to spend more time together. Unfortunately, job demands and responsibilities seem limiting.
Huh!
His breath was so heavy. It is not new because Elisha is also a career woman. It's just that ..Elisha never got hurt like Roxena.
"Sir." Lily and Sophia welcome. Gerald gave a short nod and rushed towards the room.
"Master's back. His face is not bad. It means that Mister and Miss are fine, right?"ask Lily.
Sophia. Both breathed. Looks like the good hilal is getting more visible. Mercifully.
"Let's make a special dinner. With the best wine and romantic decorations!"bring Lily excited.
"Don't forget the rose."

After approximately two weeks of investigation and preparation, finally the selection of Light and Shadow members was carried out. This selection was followed by the Luxury group, Ferrum, and also without a name that will soon merge into part of Light and Shadow.
There are about 100 who will follow the selection. In the trials, Roxena received reports that a hundred people had the potential to pass the selection. Moreover, this selection was also based on expertise. Roxena wants each member to be professional in accordance with the field of expertise or knowledge owned.
What equates is character selection. They are like prospective applicants who are undergoing a civil service entrance exam. There are appropriate academic tests and competencies.
The social and management questions that are given are mostly common. The essence held by Roxena is beyond not known to be cruel and not compassionate to the teaser but inside must take care of each other, nurturing faithfulness.
Because organization is home. Not the battlefield. Where the house is a place to get calm and a sense of security is not fear and anxiety.
"Hm." Roxena observed the participants whose exams were written. Everyone is focused on taking the exam.
"Our Miss is up to date on the Mysterious Movement. Then our people stationed inside the palace also sent information," Luro reported in a whisper to Roxena.
"Yesterday's guess is justified?"
"Yes, Miss."
Roxena was silent for a moment before deciding to talk about this later. Now is the time for member selection.
Chairman Ferrum gasped as he read the next matter.
The question is what would you do if you found out your family or colleagues betrayed you and the organization? There are only two options: kill or interrogate first and then execute.
There's no other choice. Chairman Ferrum gulped, confused as to which one to choose.
Yes, even though this is home. There are strict rules. The punishment for a traitor is death.
The same is true for Luxury members. Others with nameless members who directly vote. They have principles similar to LS. There is no place for traitors.
Chairman Ferrum and Chairman of Luxury was finally chosen interrogation first and only killed. It may be saved from execution.
"TRIBUTE DONE!" Two hours are over. Next is a test according to each skill. They entered a different room. Roxena raised the difficulty level this year.
Waiting for them to finish the exam because the practice would take quite a long time, Roxena and her three right hands left the hall where the exam took place earlier.
"We found evidence that points to the royal side, Lady." Lyca submitted some photo files to Roxena. It was a photo of a tattoo on a person's body. The tattoo is in the shape of a red carnation and on it there is a cross sword tattoo.
The carnation is the national flower of Spain. "This mysterious movement is a movement built by the government to take over small and medium-sized organizations in order to restrain the pace of LS development and also to strengthen them."
"We have confirmed that this mysterious Movement is controlled by one of the members of the kingdom. And what I suspect is .. Lady Stella, Lady." Luro expressed his suspicion.
"Stella?"
"Hm." Roxena recalled the information obtained from Mr. Luz.
"It is strongly supported by a stamp that matches the tattoo in this image. That stamp belongs to Lady Stella."
"Stella huh? If things get this way, it's all the clearer."
Roxena is amazed by Stella's appetite. Tried to rule the underworld and dropped his brother to the throne.
"It's interesting."
