Chereads / The Corals with the Wifes / Chapter 547 - 23

Chapter 547 - 23

Some people would say you have a chip on your shoulder, and you have to admit they might have a point. Some people would say you were out for revenge, and maybe you are.

But the truth of the matter is that you are simply trying to prove a point; whoever tries to stand in your way will be destroyed.

It's not like the Rangers are the only heroes of Los Diablos; there's a thriving undergrowth of people wanting to do the "right" thing, from the lowliest vigilantes to teams endorsed by various companies and even the city council. This particular free-form gladiatorial combat might not sell tickets like football, but it sure is gold when it comes to advertising.

You never realized how much you wanted to strike back at your former allies, but right now, you've stopped denying yourself the things you want.

How many contracts have you ruined? How many brands have lost value because you demolished their spokesperson? You wish you would have kept count, but that's not the reason why you fight.

You know that to achieve your goals, you need to be faster and stronger than anybody else in this cursed city.

They'll stand in your way. They'll try to stop you. So far, they haven't come close. You've broken bodies. Ruined lives. Good memories. And the occasional dead body…

Even though it's been two months since the events at the museum, Ortega is still not back on active duty. You know it's been driving him crazy, but Marshal Steel has managed to keep him out of uniform. Impressive.

Herald hasn't been in proper combat since Garrett Helton X wiped the floor with him, though the Rangers have made sure to bring him out at press conferences. Controlled ones, of course. He keeps hovering.

And Steel…well, let's just say you're biding your time. There's a long line of heroes you need to deal with. He can wait until you get a good opportunity, or he makes the mistake of crossing your path.

Lady Argent however…lately, it feels like every turn you've taken, she's been there. Harrying you. You've teased her about playing bodyguard to the newbies, but insults slide off her silver skin like bullets.
