Achiel felt like his legs had been glued to the spot. Not that the situation was literal. It was more like the prison of the mind.

There was a reason why he remained in that position. He was not willing to make a movement either. He just kept staring at what was happening before him.

All the elderly folks. All the old people that made up the group, including the old woman whom Achiel had helped. All of them were on their knees right in front of Achiel.

Achiel didn't know what to make of this. A few seconds ago, he was still struggling to escape the cutting blades of the old woman's kick. And now this?

All he could remember was the fact that, while he was trying to escape the rolling kicks of the old woman, the old woman had increased her speed and grabbed his cloth by the nape.

While he was struggling to fight himself free, without slowing down his pace nor letting her have an advantage, the old woman's long nails had torn through his clothes and ripped it halfway. His back was ma

    The White Hall. "We were so worried about you, Grandmother." Laura started, her keen stare at the old woman who was settled in her usual seat. She beckoned at Doris, who quickly walked to meet her with a package. Laura collected the package from her daughter and advanced towards Grandmother. Rachel stepped away from the side of Grandmother and walked to stand in front of Laura. Laura, who had meant to hand the gift over to Grandmother by herself, was quite displeased by the fact that Rachel got in her way. Laura knew too well to make a fool of herself in a situation like this. She wouldn't want to get on the black book of the old woman, especially not when the old woman had just recovered from a fatal situation. "I would have loved to give this to Grandmother personally, but what's the point? She knows how much my family loves her, irrespective of whoever gets to deliver the gift." Laura handed the gift to Rachel. Rachel took it from her with a smile. It was hard to tell wheth

    What! What did these strange just say? They were sent from where? By who? To bring who?Those were the questions that popped up in the mind of everyone in the hall. Everyone was stunned speechless. Even Mira and Grandmother. No one. None of the family members knew anything about it. Mira didn't recall Achiel telling her about knowing some influential figures, not even the prime minister of this country, let alone the president of the USA. Mira was becoming all shaky in her seat. She had no idea what this was about, but she was worried about her fiance. It was only right that she would protect his interest. The only person that Mira had seen Achiel address directly was Miss Zoe from Hoveland. Even up to this day, she's still trying to break the link that connected Achiel to Zoe, but she couldn't. But now this? Achiel has some relations with the president of the USA? She just couldn't wrap her head around her. But first, she had to know what the situation was. She felt like it was

    "Are you certain about this?" One of the men asked Pascal, searching Pascal's face in all sincerity and curiosity. "Come off that joke, man. Do you think I would just step out here and make a fool of myself? Of course, I know where that punk is." Pascal said with a fat smile. Pascal was acting as though he knew something that the rest of the family didn't know. It was quite hard to tell. Almost every son of Auroville was cunny. "May I ask who you are to him?" Another man asked. "Achiel is like a son to me. Though he could be a little cocky, and we've had our fall outs, he's quite a kid." Pascal nodded with a deep smile. "What is that bastard doing? What is he up to?" Laura complained as she kept a close gaze at the situation. The three men kept a long stare at Pascal for a while. It was quite obvious that they had a lot of questions. Especially there was one of them who really didn't quite approve of Pascal. "You do know from whose office we came from?" One of the men inquired

    A Maybach pulled over behind a Corvette, which was parked by the roadside. The door of the Maybach was pushed open, and a middle-aged man stepped out of the car. Pascal. Pascal walked straight to the Corvette and knocked on the driver's side. He knocked on the window for a while. No response came. He leaned forward to look through the window, but he could not see anything; the glass of the window had been tinted dead black. While he pondered and wondered where the owner of the Corvette could be, he heard the backdoor of the Corvette opening. Turning to look, a young man stepped out of the backseat of the Corvette. "What the hell, boy? What happened?" Those were the first questions Pascal could think of. "I'm sorry, Great Uncle. I couldn't just sit there. I was scared that anything could happen to me, so I decided to hide in the backseat." The lad explained, hardly looking up at Pascal.Pascal stared at the lad for a while. From his expressions, it was quite obvious that he was t

    The three men who had visited the White Hall were standing in a hallway. There were a couple of men dressed like them standing at the front of a door. The three men were exchanging glances, but neither of them was brazen enough to utter a word. It was as though they had been charged not to say a word. Suddenly, the men who were standing by the door received instructions in the pieces fit in their ears. They opened the door at once. A respectable man stepped out of the room and stepped into the hallway. The man was led by two fine and noble other men through the hallway and out. After a while, the two fine and noble men who have led the respectable man away returned. They stopped right in front of the three men. "Are you the ones who brought news about the Great One?" One of the two men asked. The three men nodded, chorusing, "Yes, we are."The two noble men observed closely, giving a gaze of scrutiny. "Come with us." The two led the way, and the three followed. The three men w

    There were a couple of people hanging around the White Hall. Major people like Laura, some of her family members, and Jones and Co have already left. Doris, nevertheless, was still hanging around in the hall. It was hard to tell why she was still waiting or whom she was waiting for. Mira, alongside Rachel, had taken her grandmother to her chamber. Occasionally, Doris would look in the direction of the door, which led to the chamber of grandmother. Suddenly, an activity was heard coming from that direction. Doris jumped on her feet all of a sudden. Barely few seconds later, Mira was seen walking off the hallway and out into the hall. As soon as Doris saw that it was Mira that had walked out, she pretended as though she was not looking in the first place. She acted as though she was keeping track of something that originally was not there. Mira seemed to be in a haste and was not directly looking at her front. She had walked quite a while before she noticed that someone was stan

    Doris's legs became weak all of a sudden. It felt like her legs would give way beneath her. She almost lost her balance. It was one emotional ride to the other. She couldn't process what she had just heard?She knew these two strange men! But who was this middle-aged man they had just addressed? What? The President of the USA?She wanted to shake her head to deny every sense of her being. Deny everything that she was thinking at that moment. How is it possible? The President of the USA casually standing in front of her and asking for who?It was as though Doris's head would explode. For a moment, she forgot that she was in pain. Her wrist felt normal at that instance. A few days ago, there had been news circulating the whole of Jade City about the visit of the President of the USA to Jade City. They had all watched on the news how grand the President's reception was made by the Prime Minister of Jade City. If the US president was going to travel, flying rockets would go ahead, man

    Mira had no idea how to process this. The more she thought she was imagining things, the clearer the picture got to her. The President of the USA was bowing to her and referring to her as some "Great lady." She had no clue what this meant. She was nervous and cautious. If Achiel was here, he probably would have helped her get through this. She had left Grandmother's chamber quickly because Miss Zoe had reached out to her. Miss Zoe wanted to meet with her in Valion instead of Hoveland. She was already puzzled by the fact that Miss Zoe had asked to meet here instead of Hoveland, and now this?"I'm -- I'm not sure if --- I don't---" Mira tried her best to form some words but no matter how carefully she tried to weave the words, she couldn't just get them out coherently. "You don't have to push yourself, Great Lady. We will escort you to a safe place. Someone as powerful and significant as you should not be wondering about without proper security measures. We will serve as your perso

    ~ THE THIRD DIMENSION ~A stream of golden light was descending from the sky at an insane speed. Its velocity was beyond the speed of the lightning. It was traveling in a wave and twirl. It kept going and going. When it zoomed past a mist of cloud, the details of the stream of light broadened. Earlier, it appeared as a golden stream of light, but now there seemed to be a hint of blue overshadowing the light. The blueness was like a hue around the golden light. Although the hue was not harsh yet, it was never to be overlooked. Suddenly, the stream of golden light collided with the peak of a bamboo tree. When the collison was made, a blinding light traveled from that place to the end of the whole forest. It was as though the whole place was enveloped in a white brilliance. After a short while, the light died out. When the light died out, there was a lanky and tall man seen standing on the tip of the peak of the bamboo tree. It was as thought hebhwd grown out of thin air. The body

    The towering God of Cosmos stood tall and mightily behind Achiel. Mira still couldn't find the appropriate way to react to it. At first, she thought that he had disappeared with Achiel, but they were still there. Her eyes must be blurring out following the great shock. Suddenly, she noticed the God of Cosmos moving his hands here and there around the room. Mira's eyes followed the directions of his hands that went to and fro. In each direction that he waved his hand, a portal appeared. He waved his hands in five places, and five portals appeared. There was a portal that had been cackling all along. It was through that portal that Achiel wanted to take Mira to the kingdom. "Choose one." The God of Cosmos said out of the blue. "Huh?" Mira was startled by the instruction. She thought that the God of Cosmos had referred to her. When she lifted her gaze slowly to take a quick peek at the immortal being, she realised that she got it all wrong. He wasn't talking to her. He was talkin

    "I can't believe that it really worked as you said." Mira added, awed by the scene that was unfolding on the screen of the phone. "But for how long will he function? I mean, how long would it take for the clone to disappear?" Mira asked. Her tone and voice showed how genuinely concerned and interested she was. She seemed to be clueless yet was fighting for all the intention there was to know. "You didn't have to ask the same question twice. Either way, I'll answer you." Achiel corrected, smiling at her. She should return the smile, but her busy mind wouldn't give her a break from the tumbling thoughts. "For as long as we want." Achiel answered. Mira's brows furrowed when he said those words. The confusion was scribbled on her face. It was way too glaring to be hidden. "We?" Mira finally asked the important question. Achiel sighed as he looked away from the screen of the phone. "I know that all these are strange to you, but you need to grow on the fact. It's something that you

    Outside the Shangri-la tower, there was a scary type of quietness. The level of quietness was really something that could never have been envisaged by anyone. The reason was that there were lots and lots of people who stretched from those premises of the Shangri-la to several kilometers away in a long, broad, and single file. For all these numerous people that have different tastes and have subscribed to different notions and beliefs, to be this quiet, it was something that could never be overlooked. The quietness didn't come of its own accord. Instead, everyone was staring seriously at his phone. Those who were not staring at their phones were looking at the large billboard that was etched into a corner of the tower. Everyone was staring keenly at the screen that was accessible to them respectfully. But what was happening on the screens of all the phones and the billboard were the same thing. Everyone gasped at the same time. On the billboard, there was a lanky man who looked

    Klaus's question attracted a lot of reactions. His words were weighty, and not one person was willing to look to the other side. "Klaus!" Zoe suddenly called at him. Klaus took a glance at her. When he saw her, he looked a little tipped off. For a sheer second, he had forgotten that Zoe was here. In the grand scheme of events at this moment, Zoe was the least important person around when it came to status and class. It was already a wonder that she was present here. Perhaps if she didn't have a feather, she wouldn't be here either. Even Klaus has his. "Don't be offended by my choice of word." Klaus plucked his gaze from her and turned to the whirring camera first before paying attention to the people present. "Pay close attention while I explain this. After this, the couple would be invited in to be celebrated and tied." Klaus's composure had tuned."Although it would totally be an honor to do this even though we are not worthy." Klaus's tone suddenly changed. Something strange

    On the floating peak of Shangri-la, there were numerous people settled down on high-end chairs made out of the purest red gold ever refined. The skin of real-life wild cats that were hand woven were sewn about the chairs, serving as resting pads and the main places where the bum would rest. There were several men of dignity positioned in thoughtful patterns across the space. The sight was so beautiful and opulent. Each of the dignitaries present at that place had a red feather at the top of their hats; each person had a hat on. irrespective of whatever you are wearing, there was a hat to match, and on top of each person's hat was a red feather. The invite!The red feather was the pass for each of the persons that was present on the Peak. The feather looked very rare. It looked to have been plucked from the wings of a Phoenix or several Phoenix.Although the color was red, yet there was this subtle highlight of yellow that made it seem as though it was multicolored. But the truth w

    About 19km away from the Shangri-la Peak, there was a flood of heads. An ocean of bodies standing in the way, making shuffles at occasional periods. The ginormous number of people stretched from that position up to the front of Shangri-la Peak. It was as though the world was about to end, and everyone had come out of their houses. It was even scarier than that. The whole city had come to a standstill because of the crazy number of people occupying all the roads and places.Voices, echoes, and screams were flying around. But one thing each of the people on the street shared was the urge to move forward."Has the wedding started?" A random person asked. "I'm not sure. The Peak is not floating yet. As soon as it starts floating, I'm sure that'd be a sign?"Two strangers were explaining to others who were surrounding them. "Get out of my way!" A lad sent a flying punch into the face of the last person to speak.Before the victim could react, the lad had run forward, pushing his way t

    "It's you. It's really you." Laura repeated the words in an attempt to be emphatic. She had done it also to convince herself that she was in her right mind and was not seeing things. Achiel remained where he was standing as though he could not move. "How... How did you find me?" That was the tenth time that she had asked that same question. When she had received a message from godofcos claiming that he was outside her house. She had come running outside. Getting to the door of her apartment, she had seen Achiel standing there. The man from the store!!!She had been trying to engage him in a conversation, but the man had been staring at her all along. Standing there like a statue. But then suddenly, he replied her abruptly. Ever since then, he had gone mute again. She was really confused and didn't know what to make of this situation that she had earned herself. Achiel was trying to make things less weird between the both of them. If he went fully into talking to her, she might

    Achiel was still standing where he was, staring at his phone. But the noise coming from distance was getting louder, and he couldn't ignore it any longer. He looked away from the phone, from the chat scene, in the direction of the noise. The group of high school students were still there. He wasn't ready to be concerned with who they were. Instead, what they were doing was something that he couldn't ignore. There was a lad who had been forced to be on his knees, while a group of bigger boys hit him repeatedly. Achiel had seen this at first but brushed it off because he was trying to gift Lauretta. Although, earlier, things were not alarming amongst the group compared to now. He started to walk towards the scene. In a matter of time, he was already close to the group. "Are you still going to keep talking?" One of the three big boys said to the victim, hitting him on the back of his head. "You will report to the principal again, won't you?" Another guy slapped the victim across t
