Since their arrival on this island, Priest and his lucky survivors had been hidden inside a small cottage in a ranch far from the main city. Luckily for them, their hideout was owned by a Country P citizen trading over them and this made Priest's mind to be relaxed in terms of safety, but filled with anxiety at the absence of Onishi. All hope, dream and desire seemed to be dashed against the wall when the prince reported that no mercenaries is waiting for him, and he knew he was only waiting to confirm if this is a joke before ordering his death. When the silence becomes intolerable, Augur who is seating close to Priest and staring at his dejected face asked, "What's the way out now?" "We need to wait until Onishi comes. I don't think there is anything we can do in his absence." "Except he had been swindling us all this while, there is no reason why he shouldn't be here by now." "Barrymore is right, it's over twelve hours since we last heard from him." "Yes. Even if he trekked f
Four heavily armed men stepped into an overcrowded Inn and a fight occur immediately. A moment later, the booming Inn was like a deserted cemetery in the middle of the night and only the staff and some die-hard customers were seen gawking at the bloodstained men who seemed to be enjoying the whole scenario"You all ran off after starting a fight with us. I never knew this island is filled with pansies.""Who is the manager of this inn?"Come and have the money for everything that was destroyed during the quarrel," One among the men cried out in loud voice, dipped his hand inside his trouser and brought out some piles of cash."Hey! Are you deaf?"When no one came out of hidden, he dropped the money on top of a table close by, signalled to his comrades, and they all walked out of the rectangular-shaped inn, into the large compounds, and closer to the gate of the Inn."To the next Inn.""Am hungry. Let's look for something to eat.""Hey... Look up." A car drove into sight, parked far o
The room is small, clean and tidy. And only a tiny mattress beside the window served as the furniture. After removing his shoe, the weary prince sat with a growl and lolled his back on the blue-painted wall."This is my room and you are safe as long as you are here.""Thank you, I owe you my life and will forever be grateful to you.""No need to pledge forever indebted to me... What will you like for breakfast?""Am not hungry, please. My situation is overwhelmingly and had denied me of my appetite for food.""I insist that you eat something to regain your strength for the task ahead.""First tell me how you planned to help me."The lady removed the little clothing on her body and sat naked beside Onishi."First and foremost, you must realize that Priest won't forgive you for betraying him, neither will he agree that the failed mission is not your fault," she paused her speech, breath in loud, fixed her eyes on the man in his front and resumed, "attack is the best form of defence, I
The two men were back at the mafia palace after their sightseeing and they were immediately summoned into the presence of the royal family. On the seats were lots of royally dressed mafias and all eyes fell on the oddly dressed men as they sauntered into the parlour, offered mock bows at the man on the throne and his wife, and then walked towards some chairs arrange beside El Ramon and sat with a fixed smile."As I was saying, the coronation will take place by the next new moon, and the two weddings will commence after.""I suggest we do them separately. These are rare occasions and shouldn't be celebrated mildly.""I agree with you, and that was why we decided to make it seven days. The first five days will be used to celebrate the enthroning of a new mafia king, while the last two days were for the wedding celebrations.""Your majesty. Why will you get married at the same time when with a palace maid? I suggest you order her to postpone her wedding to the upper week.""What is the
The four men were led by the foreigners and their guards into a dimly light hall. Far off, some figures hunched over the chairs, and the physique of the Priest became visible as the men stepped closer."Welcome, Augur. Are these the men?""Yes, boss."The priest stood from his seat, stretched his right hand for a shake, and then signalled to the men to seat at the empty chairs around him."Welcome, young men. Have heard a lot about you, and am glad we finally meet.""Thank you, Mr Priest. We have heard a lot about you as well.""They were the most notorious men on this island, and we are lucky to have them with us.""No doubt they were... Am sure Augur had explained what this crusade is all about.""Yes. Though we still have some questions left unanswered.""Please speak. You have my ears.""What are the terms and conditions of the contract?""Hundred thousands of dollars for every survival and also salary for life. Feeding, transportation, and weapons will be paid for by me.""How ma
The priest was lost in thought as soon as the four mercenaries left his sight. "We need to send some people to go and verify if the ship is at the dock," Barrymore who had been peering at his superior face let out."Go along with some men and be careful not to be tailed back to our hideout.""What about you? I suggest you leave this place right now.""I will. Let's be on our way."The group marched out of their meeting hall and were weary of snipers as they hurried close to their cars, hopped inside and drove into the main road. "Something is wrong at our headquarters. All my telephone calls were received by a strange voice... I hope that is not what am thinking.""What's on your mind?""I guess El Ramon had invaded our place and arrested all our men.""Call Greenwich port to confirm from the guards there. I believe they will have information about what is going on.""I already did. My calls were picked up by strange men who seemed interested in my location, but offered no vital inf
Barrymore parked at the port car park, hopped down the car and was followed by four hefty men in black uniforms. A moment later, the large gate was opened and the five men strolled inside. "Good evening, how can I be of service?""We are here to meet some sailors who docked in your port three days ago?""Only one ship docked here in the past week, and the sailors left two days later.""And the ship?""Along with the ship. Will they leave without it?""You mean there is no ship in this port?""Apart from some boats and speedboat, there is no single ship in our dock.""Mind if we take a look?""No. Please come with me."The pair were led into the port and then showed where the ship was kept before sailing back to wherever it was brought from."The only island in this way is Greenwich island. Perhaps your sailor was waiting for you there," the guard pointed toward somewhere far off and let out."They were instructed to wait for us here."The guard shrugged, peeked at his visitors and s
Onishi released his newfound lover from an absurd position, stand up from his kneeling posture, and breathed out loud."Did you enjoy the lovemaking?""Aye. It keeps getting better.""I wish we can make a baby now. High time we have an heir to the throne of Greenwich.""Too late. There is an heir already.""I don't understand.""Prince El Ramon's wife delivered a boy and he is with the mafia's assassins as we are speaking.""We must kill him. We can't afford to let him grow and claimed the throne.""Killing a baby is the least of my headache. Did you think your plug will supply mercenaries strong enough to defeat them?""The men you were talking about were trained and spent all their lives combatting. My plug knows a lot about them and he will send those who are capable of eradicating them.""Am scared of them. They look unbeatable to me.""No mortal is indomitable... Don't worry, my plug's men were up to the task.""Let's be on our way," Onishi mumbled as he picked up his clothing to
