Strings Of Domination - Chapter 73

The ship was rather big, about three times larger than the one Nash and the rest have escaped from Planet Azure.

It was separated into four floors, each floor having hundreds of hallways and rooms; it was almost like a huge maze where one could easily get lost if was not careful enough.

Luckily, the control center where one controlled the spaceship was at the very top floor while the prison cell was on the bottom, just slightly next to the storage room so Nash and Amy were able to avoid getting caught by Amael who was at the moment on the top floor, taking care of the unconscious Erys.

“Are you sure this is the right way?” running through hallways where only a few creatures patrolled which they were able to avoid easily, Nash asked as he followed Amy.

“Trust me, this is the right way,” Amy nodded calmly, seemingly confident in her navigation skills.

As a fact, Nash does not really know this but Amy had a very good memory, much greater than any ordinary being! She could easily remember an entire page of text with a single glance and recall it backward if she wished to!

Hence, navigating inside the spaceship and recalling the way from where she came from was a piece of cake for her.

The two ran sneakily through hallways, only stopping when they had to hide from patrolling Sky Beasts or Thousand Bloods. And under a few minutes, they finally reached the bay door leading into the outside world.

As for why they were not noticed was simply because they had no presence. Thanks to their Legacy being sealed away, they were like small bugs, only visible if one noticed them with their very eyes.

This is also how Amy was able to sneak up onto the spaceship without getting caught by either Amael or any of the creatures.

“There it is. If we can sneak up onto that we can escape!” Amy pointed forward, showing Nash a smaller-sized spaceship not far away in the distance.

Before it, there was a small group of creatures, their numbers barely reaching fifty.

‘To think there was still so many even after killing a bunch.’ Nash narrowed his eyes, feeling slightly surprised that there still remained so much.

“What should we do? We can’t just walk up there, right? We will get caught in no time at all.” Amy asked with worry visible in her voice, her silver eyes looking at Nash’s handsome face in the hope to get an answer.

Nash remained silent and pondered. After a brief moment, he glanced at the few crates on the side and said, “Can you see those boxes over there? If we can get there we can hide in there.”

“In those boxes? Aren’t they a little bit too… small for the two of us? Especially with your huge sword?” Amy asked, skeptical if they could even fit in the largest box or not.

“We can only try and see,” Nash said and grabbed Amy’s hand before pulling her after him as he sneaked toward the boxes.

Luckily, there were many bushes and trees in the way, so they were able to get behind cover and hide when one or two creatures walked over. With the help of the constant covers of them, they were able to reach the crates with seemingly no problem.

“You go inside first,” Nash said quietly to Amy as he opened the lid of a box that had only a few pieces of garments inside, indicating her to hurry up and climb inside.

Amy did as she was told and quickly climbed inside without creating any sound that could alert the nearby creatures; she was like a nimble cat which slightly surprised Nash.

“Now that everything has been told, take the supplies onto the spaceship and get your asses on board! We don’t have any more time to waste here!” as Nash was about to climb in too, he heard as the leader of the creatures suddenly shouted and watched as two Sky Beasts hurried over where he was.

‘Fuck!’ swearing in his heart, Nash didn’t care if he could fit inside with his sword or not, he jumped inside the box without hesitation and closed the lid with one smooth motion.

“Aah?!” Amy let out a surprising pitch when she saw and felt as Nash was on top of her, his whole body pressing down on hers

She wished to move but found it with surprise that his body was like a firm boulder, not budging even after she used her small arms to push him a little up.

“N-Nash… your body is…” Amy wished to say something, but even before she could have finished her sentence Nash placed his hand over her small lips while signaling her with his other to remain silent.

Although with a face fully blushed and chest fast pounding, Amy understood Nash hence closed her eyes and remained silent without daring to utter a single word.

Seeing as Amy fell silent while the box they were in was finally picked up and moved, Nash sighed with relief in his heart and took a glance at his weapon on his back. Luckily, it was able to fit inside, but because of its top reaching the bottom of the lid above, he knew he couldn’t move no matter what or else they will be busted in no time.

‘This is nuts…’ Nash thought to himself as he looked down at Amy. He could clearly feel her body through his as he was pressing down on her, especially at the chest part; it was really soft.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself down, Nash closed his eyes and forced himself to concentrate on the things happening outside instead of the warm and soft feeling all over his body.

He watched as they were brought inside the spaceship and carried through several hallways before being brought inside a room and placed down. Then the creatures walked away and came back a few seconds later, carrying several more crates before placing them down next to them.

This went on for a few moments and after the fifteenth crate, Nash noticed that the door was closed and no creatures came inside any longer, not even after he waited 5 minutes straight.

“It seems we are safe to go out,” Nash said as he looked down at Amy, but was surprised to see her glaring at him coldly.

“O-Oh… Sorry.” Nash quickly took his hand away from her lips and after making sure there was no one else around, he opened the lid and climbed out.

Amy, although with still a slightly blushed face, followed him out too and after neatening her clothing she looked around and asked, “And now what?”

They were currently inside a small room, seemingly being a storage room or so with several crates and boxes except for the ones that were just brought in just now.

The whole room was cold and dark, almost akin to the cell back in the main ship they have escaped from.

Nash pondered for a brief moment and wished to respond, but just as he opened his mouth, suddenly several voices appeared in his head.

[Advancement Phase has been completed!]

[Domination Art: Strings of Domination have successfully advanced to the next Class!]

[All previous and new abilities are ready to be used again!]

[Souls attached by Death Strings now can be used again!]

[Beings attached by Life Strings now will regain consciousness and can be controlled again!]

Whoosh!

Instantly, Nash watched as a warm feeling passed through his body while rows of texts appeared in his line of sight one by one.
