Continuation of bonus chapter 61. I hope you enjoy reading it☺️🌹❤️❤️

Riman still holds Fox and proceeds. Before entering the glass wall, she looks at Derek through the light glass, which deepens with time.

**Riman** (Waves goodbye, smiling)

"Goodbye..."

Then she smiles... a light, sad, mocking smile.

Inside the new section of the maze, the walls are darker. The reflections are distorted.

**Riman** looks at Fox, who is still asleep in her arms. His face is pale, and he breathes slowly.

She places her hand on his forehead.

**Riman**

(Whispering, very worried)

"Why are you asleep?"

(Looking around, worried and tense)

"You don't have a fever anymore..."

Fox, telepathically and tired

"I want to sleep for a while..."

She replies, "Okay," patting him gently...her eyes show some concern.

**Sajjad** stands away from the group, looking at Riman. His eyes are cold.

He raises his hand slightly, pointing at her with his finger.

**Sajjad**

(In a low, but firm voice)

"I want to talk to you... alone..."

**Riman** looks at him. She touches Fox in her arms. His face is pale, and he breathes slowly.

She carefully places him on the ground, covering him with a thin piece of fabric. She looks at him for a long time, as if saying goodbye.

She walks towards Sajjad. Her steps are slow, hesitant. Her eyes tremble.

**Riman** stands in front of him, lifting her head. Her face is pale, her eyes red, very worried about Fox.

**Sajjad**

(Calmly, but with a steel tone)

"I want to say two things..."

(Looking at her directly)

"Stay away from Derek...."

**Riman** opens her eyes wide. She doesn't believe it.

**Riman**

(In a trembling voice)

"What do you mean by that?"

(Raising her voice a bit)

"He is a good person..."

Her eyes fill with fear and worry. She trembles from head to toe, not from the cold, but from fear.

**Sajjad**

(In a low, but sharp voice)

"I'm not joking with you.

(He approaches her slowly) "Don't use your foolish tricks..." (Looking at her sternly and coldly)

"For emotional manipulation... I don't want more problems..."

**Riman** trembles more. She places her hands on her chest.

Suddenly, a voice in her head:

**Fox** (Telepathically)

"Riman... I'm sorry... but I don't think I can continue with you... I just want to tell you... that I..." Silence

**Riman** trembles. Tears stream down her face.

**Sajjad** in a calm voice

"Riman... you are playing with a lion... Dealing with them emotionally is difficult... Since morning, I've been trying to keep you away so he doesn't learn more about that fool... (He sighs) Derek is no different from me... (He pauses) except in one thing... I control my emotions... (Looking at her) and he doesn't... If that fool gets angry, he might destroy several cities or even a whole country... I don't want more disasters on top of mine..." His voice becomes heavier. Then he steps forward.

To himself

"We are of the hardest type to deal with; we don't understand others' feelings and see them as tools...As for Derek, his condition is worse than a lion's... His family is from the South, the source of their power is the Winter Flower... or the Flower of Madness, to be precise...Anyone addicted to this flower won't be normal..." He thinks, calm.

**Riman** suddenly

(In a soft voice, as if groaning)

"Even if that's true..."

(Lifting her head, eyes full of tears)

"Will you leave me..."

(In a hoarse, loud voice)

"You know I love you..." Her features don't show

(Sajjad is shocked by her words)

The connection is cut. Fox closes his eyes. His breathing becomes lighter.

She falls to her knees from weakness, crying silently.

**Sajjad**

(Opening his eyes wide)

"Wait... What are you doing?!"

**Riman** runs to Fox. She reveals her nails and quickly slashes her hand, as if she didn't feel anything, blood flowing from it.

To herself

"I can't let him die... It's impossible..." She cries hard and collapses

(Looking at him)

"I don't want to live... without you..." Her crying is intense.

**Riman**

(In a broken voice)

"Fox, just... heal, don't worry, just get up... (Trying to smile) Just bear a little... (In a low voice)

Fox... wake up."

**Fox** opens his eyes slowly. His eyes are red, shining with fever.

"Riman, don't worry about me... I'm just a little tired..."

**Sajjad**

(Looking at the wound on her hand)

"Why is she afraid for a weak creature?"

(Looking at her expression)

"If Derek heard this, he would think her words were for him or me... What a disgusting, revolting confession... I would vomit..." He feels disgust and revulsion and steps towards her.

Then he grabs her arm forcefully.

**Sajjad**

"It's not just about destroying Malai; you're also trying to heal him... From the way you talk, it means he's suffering from a rare disease that's hard to cure, right... Are you exhausting yourself for a bothersome fox..." He looks coldly and harshly.

**Riman** to herself

"Damn, I misspoke..." She pushes his hand away.

**Sajjad** to himself

"Ask me how (calmly)...When she touched me, I learned two things: first, her main goal is to destroy Malai, as I know... and second, in the besieged area of the dam, there is medicine for this fox... When I tried to learn more, she pulled her hand away unfortunately... I tried to learn who this fox is, but I couldn't..." Annoyed

**Sajjad**

"I don't care about any of this, let's go... We have more important matters..." He tries to slap him, but he moves away.

**Riman** stands suddenly, pushing his hand away. Her eyes burn with anger.

**Riman** furious, almost insane

"Don't you have a conscience... You are a devil... How dare you say that... Just die instead of him..." Very angry

He is silent for a moment, then a memory of his mother when she told him about death with anger comes back

"Sajjad, die, I don't want you at all..." Her hair flies, hate and anger are visible on her face, and she is extremely angry

(With deep sadness and calm)

"Do you really want me to die..."

To himself (his cold expression appears like a killer)

"Control yourself, don't touch her... If I touch her now, I will crush her... (With extreme anger) " I will grab her with my hand and choke her, bringing her back to me" with a cold, powerful, and deadly calm.

**Sajjad** (calm, hiding his immense internal fatigue)

"Let's go, this fox is just exhausted from encountering a mass of energy... This made him sick, and he absorbed the power instead of you to keep you safe..." She becomes calm, as if feeling guilty towards him.

**Riman** (shocked by his reaction)

"I didn't mean it, I was angry and didn't realize what I was saying..."

Calmly and tense

**Sajjad** (walking forward, his expression changes to a smile)

"Sorry, but I don't care about your foolish words (mockingly)... What I care about is myself and my principles (proudly)... " but concern appears on him

**Riman** moves, Fox, so she quickly picks him up and worries

"I'm fine, what Sajjad said makes sense... I tried to put a barrier around you... to protect you... but I couldn't handle their energy..." She hugs him, trembling

**Riman** cries and trembles

"Fox, I was really scared for you..."

**Sajjad** calmly, hiding immense internal fatigue

"Let's go... You two are annoying..."

To himself

"Damn... I didn't expect her appearance to affect me this much again (holding his head with sadness)... I tried to forget what I saw, but I couldn't... Even her wish for my death... Damn... (smiling sadly, his hair covering his face)... I will kill her after exploiting her to mislead... I can't leave a girl who makes me indecisive in my decisions (annoyed)... The past nearly defeated me (very annoyed, pressing his hand, his face still unclear)"

**Riman** holds Fox, wipes her tears, and smiles, then follows Sajjad behind him

She tries to catch up with him. Her steps are heavy, but she doesn't stop.

**Sajjad** speaks without turning around

"Clean your wound, I find your blood disgusting... Keep a distance of more than two meters..." She walks behind him like a little duckling following its mother

**Riman** (mockingly)

"Are you angry..."

**Riman** (mockingly and annoyed, then laughs)

"I expected everything in my life except one thing... That you would be affected by my words... You've become sensitive like a child..." and covers her mouth

**Sajjad** annoyed and angry, making her shut her mouth with his terrifying gaze

"I'm not in the mood for your silly jokes... Follow the orders..." 

Then he disappears in a flash

**Sajjad**

"If I was really angry... (bored and sarcastically)... you'd be dead..." He licks his lips

> Sajjad climbs the glass wall with superhuman speed, as if walking in the air. He reaches the top of the walls.

**Sajjad**

"(Looking down) There's something wrong... (looking at the red energy)

If the dimension's power is created by accumulating 'crypton' energy in a vacuum... (looking down) but if the energy is stable... (smiling intensely)... then it's not a dimension at all..."

> The shot shows: The walls of the maze are filled with transparent creatures resembling "Nemiro," moving slowly.

Currently, a glass maze, midnight. The walls reflect red lights coming from the center of energy. The air is cold, silent, except for Khalid's breathing as he sleeps in a corner far away.

**Sajjad**

"Almost fooled me by the transition method (calmly)... but after seeing Nemiro and fluctuating energy everywhere... (stands up, hair flying, clothes moving with the wind)... it's definitely not a dimension... (contemplating the scene)... but something else..."

**Riman** (looking up at him, blushing)

"Who am I looking at (turns her face)... I need to stay away from nonsense... Fox, we'll reach our goal and I'll heal you so we can live a happy life together (hugging him)..."

Proudly speaking

"As for that moody one, we'll get rid of him (whispering)... " Their eyes meet in a moment

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Location: Glass maze, midnight. The walls reflect red lights from the center of energy. The air is charged with tension.

He jumps down gracefully and powerfully, opening a black vortex and drawing his sword in front of it, cold and terrifying, then approaches it with powerful steps.

**Riman** (retreating to the wall)

"Are you going to kill me... just because I looked at you or wished for your death... Where are human rights, or even animal rights..." Afraid, trembling, sweating, he tilts his head and sighs

> Suddenly, the place explodes. Dalia releases a huge, destructive black energy wave passing in front of her.

**Dalia** stops, shocked, then screams

"What's happening?!"

Sea nymph-like Nemiro creatures launch from above, with ordinary feet, appearing as transparent sorcerers, followed by giant beasts floating and holding ancient scrolls instead of swords.

> Sajjad walks among the creatures calmly. No noise, no anger. Only eyes like a predator, gleaming like lightning.

> Riman, extremely frightened by the impact

"If he didn't mean me..." She slides down the wall she was leaning on from fear.

> Sajjad approaches, then stops in the middle of the maze.

**Sajjad**

(Calmly, with a deadly cold tone)

"Hello... Nemiro group or Land of Nemiro, isn't that right, Fruk..."
