All Chapters of Nine Ungrateful Sisters: Chapter 771 - Chapter 780

Diana bit down hard on her lip. "We are the ones who pushed Oscar to this point. I work at a hospital. I've seen countless terminal patients."After they learn they have a terminal illness, the first thing they do is break down and refuse to accept it. Then they spend every waking moment searching for doctors and treatments."Once they finally realize there truly is no cure, they turn to the people closest to them, their family and friends, for the courage to face whatever time they have left."Oscar must have gone through all of that too. Except we cast him out of our family. He had no family or friends left. In the end, the only place he had left to place his hope was with the dragon race. None of this should ever have happened to him."Diana's words came between wracking sobs as tears streamed down her face. "No. I can't just let Oscar die like this. He's still so young. He's only eighteen."As she spoke, she suddenly pulled off her ring and slapped herself across the face with

However, the Everflame Order was an entirely different matter. There, willpower was tested through life-and-death trials. Walking through fire and climbing a mountain of blades were not just figures of speech. They were exactly, literally, what every recruit had to endure.Countless times, Bella had truly believed she was about to die. Yet she had survived every ordeal, and the scars covering her body stood as proof of each one.Could her previous training even compare? Not even remotely.As far as she knew, the trials for becoming a full Everflame member were already this brutal. She could not even begin to imagine what awaited the envoys, the protectors, or the deputy pavilion master.And the Draconox Order was supposed to stand on equal footing with Everflame.In her mind, Oscar had always been nothing more than a useless freeloader, drifting through life under the protection of the Chamberlain family's name. How could someone like him possibly have become a Draconox Archon?"

But now, Bella finally realized she had been wrong.Pity offered to someone weak was kindness. Pity offered to someone strong was an insult.What made it even crueler was that he had already known his own death was coming, yet people had still treated him that way."No. I have to go save him. He can't just die like this!" Bella's words tumbled out in a frantic rush, barely coherent.A large part of the reason she had survived countless battles and endured the Everflame Order's trials came down to Oscar.He had told her that everything she had came from him. She had refused to believe him. She had wanted to confront him and demand an explanation.But now the helicopters' machine guns were already firing. Oscar had been lured out of the city, and the operation to eliminate him had begun.Bella's voice echoed through the aircraft as she completely lost her composure. "No! There has to be a way to save him!"Natalie issued a rapid series of commands. "As the Everflame envoy, I am i

But the price? What did Freya even have left to offer?If the request and the price were not equal, she would lose this chance immediately. Oscar would simply vanish before her eyes.At that moment, she could only gamble with the one thing she still had left that mattered.'I am willing to give my own body in exchange for Oscar's escape from this.'Her body was the only thing she had left to wager. And it was the very thing the dragon had wanted all along.'As you wish.'The instant the pact was sealed, Freya felt her consciousness lurch violently. She became nothing more than a spectator as the little dragon perched on Oscar's body suddenly sprang to life.It flicked its tail. Although its body was tiny, the little dragon that moved now was nothing like the one Freya had inhabited moments earlier.A sharp crack rang out. Freya watched helplessly as the little dragon's tail lashed forward, shattering Oscar's entire body like porcelain.In the distance, the artillery shells had

"You can leave, of course. But she stays!" Natalie said, pointing at Rebecca. "She is Mr. Stone's sister. With Mr. Stone gone, I will see to her safety!"At that moment, the sisters caught sight of Bella.Hilda's sharp eyes spotted her first. "Is that... Bella?""Bella!" She waved both arms and shouted to get Bella's attention while calling out to the others."Hilda? Diana, Elara, Giana!"Bella had been lost in grief when the familiar voices suddenly reached her ears. She looked up, saw the sisters, and a surge of surprise and joy swept through her. She immediately ran toward them.But just as she was about to reach them, the Silverton Citadel Forces noticed the sisters as well."The Chamberlain sisters are fugitives from the Draconox Order too! Seize them!"To the sisters' horror, the Citadel Forces quickly surrounded them."Stop!" In that desperate moment, Bella drew a pistol and fired a shot into the air. "Let them go!"The gunshot instantly drew the soldiers' attention to
