The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

So, its the guy from last night… Daring to show up again, truly fearless.

Looks like were in for a show tonight.

The man with the tiger mask noticed the reactions around him and glimpsed Brysons face, a flicker of surprise crossing his features.

Then, lowering his voice with a hint of amusement, he said, Walking into the lions den voluntarily.

Interesting.

Youve managed to evade our surveillance and still dare to come here.

Youve got some nerve and skill.

Hidden in the shadows, the guards of Twilight Dimness were poised to take action but were halted by a gesture from the man with the plain mask.

The tiger-masked man stood up, his gaze fixed on Bryson and said, Youve got guts and skills.

Lets have a talk. Accepting the invitation, Bryson responded, Sure.

He stood and followed the masked man deeper into the bar, towards a hidden door.

Their movement captured the attention of everyone in the venue, their eyes filled with astonishment and speculation, and the buzz of conversations grew louder.

hats this guys background? Boss Tiger personally took him in.

Look at his calm demeanor, hes definitely not simple.

He managed to win against the new leopard last night and even escaped from Boss Tigers clutches.

Hes definitely skilled.

Behind the door was a private room, dimly lit and charged with tension.

The two sat down opposite each other, and the masked man broke the silence.

Although you came here voluntarily, your skills are undoubtedly impressive, as everyone has seen.

He looked at Bryson intently and asked, So why have you come back today? Whats your purpose? Bryson leaned against the wall, his face unreadable.

Escaping the dungeon would only prove that those guards were incompetent.

But with your tight security around Twilight Dimness, I had no chance to flee.

So I thought it best to come to you.

Hearing this, the tiger-masked man laughed and said, Since youve come to me, I can just catch you.

If you hadnt come, you mightve found a way out.

Gesturing towards Bryson, he added, You had a slim chance before.noveldrama

Now, youve made the wrong choice.

Maybe not, Bryson said casually. Right now, Im the only one capable of beating those savage beasts in the arena, right? The man behind the tiger mask frowned, puzzled.

What are you implying? Dont you get it? Bryson asked with a raised eyebrow.

If I return and win every match, how much will Twilight Dimness lose? Hearing this, the masked mans face darkened, though the mask concealed his reaction.

Chuckling, Bryson continued, I dont need to explain much further.

Everyone knows betting on me guarantees victory, but your arena will bleed money.

And… Bryson smiled slightly, a hint of challenge in his tone.

Its not just about money.

Your reputations on the line too.

Imagine a fighter becoming a legend overnight, vanishing right under your nose.

What would that do to the myth of Twilight Dimness security?
