DICE [22] b
With Alex here, Bellamie begins to find her own comfort. Truly, Alex is not as terrifying as all the servants in this luxurious mansion say."If you really miss me, Bella, what do I get if I postpone the departure?"The wind blowing on Bellamie's face feels even more piercing. The sun that was bright and dazzling has been replaced by overcast clouds. They've been staring at each other for who knows how long. Locking onto each other without intending to shift their gaze anywhere."There will be a storm, Bella. We'll stay overnight here." Alex reluctantly removes his hand from the woman's chin that increasingly affects him."Here?" Bella blinks."There's a cabin specifically for overnight stays, Bella.""Yours?"Alex nods, looking amused at Bellamie, who still looks at him in disbelief."Are you deliberately taking me out for this, sir?""For what?" Alex's hand reaches out immediately, making Bellamie stunned. "The weather can't be predicted, Bella. I did invite you for hunting here. If

Dice surveyed the surroundings, even though she was inside the cube. They had entered a remote village station at the southern end of the Metro, just an hour away; the expanse of the Northern Metro lay before them. The only place they had to navigate through naturally to avoid trouble. Dice had tried her best to close off anyone trying to find out about the Haidar Galaxy.She couldn't use her abilities to the fullest. Dice knew that the southern Metro center had its own alarm system to detect her presence, especially Xavier. When she hacked into the security system at Falcy Building, she knew she had been caught. Immediately, she set up the highest security for her master so they could safely leave the city and reach their destination without raising too much suspicion.With Xavier, Dice didn't need to be this anxious. But this time? Traveling with Gala, who still hesitated to take full control of the die even though it was so close. The die only needed one specific command, modified

Two people dressed in all black, sturdy-built, walk quickly after their car is parked at one corner of Lot 3. Their destination is a fairly well-known orphanage there, large with many residents. Lot 3 is known for being a populated and friendly area where people are not hesitant to help each other, including the management of the orphanage, which is run together with the Lot 3 government and directly supervised by the central Metro government.Maverick Osmond, though notorious for not hesitating to eliminate his business rivals, especially in the drug cartel, still has a bit of a heart. There are many orphanages under Osmond's umbrella in the Southern Metro. However, the database of all the orphanages doesn't find the name Galaksi Haidar. That's why his two envoys move directly to the location as per the given order, bringing Galaksi Haidar in front of Maverick.His suspicion is strong regarding the presence of the die in the hands of the kid. But why?Maverick has no answers at all.

Dice knew that her master's data manipulation was highly susceptible to leaks. She just had to wait for the Southern Metro, especially Maverick Osmond, to find out. Given the long-standing grudge between the ruler and her master. The crushing defeats Maverick often suffered never made him cautious. Xavier himself had often warned him to submit to the will of the Ruler of the Sky. But because of frequent defiance, Xavier never hesitated to raise arms.That's why Dice tried to hide Gala in such a way. Including... "Sir," she softly calls. The communication device stuck to Gala's ear is still in place. His master is not asleep this time. Choosing to enjoy the journey that presents views that amaze him.Shortly after the train departs, the landscape of the Southern Metro, which has turned into a rural area, becomes more refreshing. Especially when crossing beautiful hills. Tall trees and vast green fields interspersed with a few small houses quickly pass by Gala's eyes. Leaning his hand n

"Galaksi Haidar isn't just any kid to me, Dice. Not just any descendant of Horratio. He's the one who will lead the entire Metro. In the future, you have to truly stand by his side.""How, sir? I really don't understand."Xavier just smiles a little. His eyes return to the Western Metro sky. As the conversation takes place, they are both wandering there, searching for locations suspected of committing serious violations. Experimenting with animals to turn them into new combat weapons, including the torture of increasingly rare animals.Perhaps today all the triggers where Gala will accept his fate will begin. Dice is ready for the worst-case scenario, including changing all die controls to a default name; Proximarry Galaksi Haidar.***At the arrival gate, a special forces team, though looking more casual even though wearing communication devices in their ears, is guarding tightly around the area to the exit door. They've prepared firearms beforehand, not to mention a team outside the

Once again, all the devices on Maverick's desk shattered into pieces on the floor not far from where he stood. His face turned crimson, frozen in disbelief. The roar in his chest felt like it could be heard throughout the entire room. His hands clenched tightly, partially scratched due to his recent actions. He lets his hands get injured again. He's furious. Very."IDIOTS!!!" he curses at all the guards in his spacious room. "What are you doing, Russel?""Si-Sir, this is beyond our control. I don't understand why the trigger could explode there."Maverick always thinks with his logic, calculating the highest probability in his actions. Where he can make it thin the consequences that will arise. But today, in reality? He made Alexander angry and demanded a lot of compensation. The investigation into the incident at Attis Station immediately became a spotlight for both Southern Metro and Northern Metro.Four casualties in yesterday's events have been taken care of by the Southern Metro

Gala shakes his head quickly, furrows his brows, and looks at Dice in disbelief. "You... serious, Dice?"Dice, who is standing not far from Gala, looking surprised by all the things that just arrived at the door of the simple house they now occupy, glances briefly. "I'm not kidding, sir." Then Dice continues with her activities. Cooking.The house they walked to from Attis Station made Gala tired. Passing through many residential blocks, also the edge of the city park, not to mention the many areas like Lots in Southern Metro. If in Northern Metro, they are called Roads. And the house Gala was heading to was in the Butterfly Road area.Dice forbids the use of any mode of transportation except for the bike she just bought at the second-hand market around the station. Dice says, Northern Metro is unique. It has a traditional market that attracts visitors from all over Metro. Not because of its tidiness, but because of its placement deliberately done in public places such as train statio

The atmosphere looked tense on the 45th floor of Falcy Building. Maverick didn't say much, just looked around as the place suddenly filled with men in white robes with peculiar headpieces. But that was a sign that they were not ordinary folks from all corners of Metro. They were all special individuals working under the Great Gideon's umbrella. Supervising and directing everything the rulers of Metro needed to do. If they violated, there would be consequences, and Horratio would be the one executing the punishment. His whereabouts are currently unknown to them all.Gideon the Great, a tall and large man with a pointed head covering. His eyes as blue as the sea, with a firm jawline. Sitting cross-legged with one hand supporting his head. His eyes staring sharply at his interlocutor; Maverick Osmond."What are you going to talk about, Maverick."Maverick smiles slightly. "What do you need today, sir? I feel like there's nothing to discuss."Gideon the Great nods slightly. His eyes lazil
