Rieka couldn't utter a word. Tears rolled down her cheeks with guilt and regret pricking her heart.Slowly and with a bright smile, Noah approached his army.Wasn't it too early for her to start regretting?‘If only I had known.’Rieka said inwardly.There was no longer anything between her and Noah. He was going back to where he was honored, respected, and cared for.He was only in Linton City because of Rieka. He could deal with those responsible for his family's destruction from anywhere in the world.“We stand for justice.”“We stand for peace.”“We are united.”“We wage war against the enemies.”“The Supreme Ruler we hail thee.”They chorused.Standing before his army, Noah raised his hand.The chorus ended.“It's an awesome feeling to be where you are loved and honored. My brothers, no matter what, we remain one.”The Supreme Ruler was so emotional.When he lost everything and had to start from scratch, they were the people he had to see as family.“Let us proceed!”Noah roared
Noah couldn't answer, instead, he waved him off. “All I need now is rest and I'd like to be left alone.”The vehicle halted at the Supreme Villa and Noah got out of the car.Noah yawned as he walked in.He freshened up and slept peacefully all through the night.Early the next morning, Noah's ringing phone woke him up.With sleepy eyes, Noah declined the call.The phone rang again.“Who is on the line?”With a cold voice, Noah answered the call without checking who called.“Noah, it's me, Andy. There's a recent update about the Statue Made Of Pure Gold.”“Really?”Noah regained consciousness fully and sat up.“What's the update?”Andy explained. “ Some hours ago, I reached out to Delph Net to check up on him. He made it known to me that the Statue Made Of Pure Gold had been moved from Linton City to a small town in Swelvi.“Are you sure Delph gave you this information?”“Yes! He knows better than to give me false news.”“Fine! It's time for me to recover what belongs to my family. I'
The Chief of Army Staff replied. “I'll go with the latter. Killing him won't be that easy but when he's within our jurisdiction, there's no way he will survive.”“Alright,” Qudus nodded.At the same time, Noah got a call from Jenny.He placed the phone on speaker.“Hi, Noah.”“Hi, Jenny.”“The man holding the Statue Made Of Pure Gold is the Chief of Army Staff. Although he is playing in a very low key.”“Three men who are all Generals are also working for him. Their names are Victor, Kish, and Qudus respectively.Hearing this, Noah frowned.He had never had of Generals bearing such a name.“Noah, the Chief of Army Staff has other people working closely to eliminate you.”“Penetrating Swelvi won't be an easy task but we are not backing out!”All Noah did was listen attentively.Jenny told Noah all the information she got concerning their mission.Noah cleared his throat. “Jenny you've done well. I know the Chief of Army Staff has a hand in all this. It's time to face him one on one. Yo
Victor sighed in relief. “I believe your words.”The Chief Of Army Staff ended the call.Meanwhile, Noah, Jenny, alongside her squad were on their way to Swelvi.Thirty minutes away from their destination, their vehicle halted.Jenny said, “We have to board a taxi from here. We'll have to board different taxis just in case things don't go as planned.”“That's a nice idea.”Noah praised her.Jenny buttressed. “Bear in mind that you have to be as free as possible. This town is a commercial place. Let's all pretend that we also came to buy and sell as we receive orders from Noah.”“No matter what, don't be alone. Remember, your life first.”“Alright.”Their voices rang out.They got out of the car and were in twos as they had planned.Once they looked like people who were out to buy and sell, locating their target would be easy.Noah ensured all of them had boarded a taxi before being stopped to take his own.Lo, the only vehicle available that was going to Swelvi was a tricycle.Noah go
Noah gazed at Jenny. He nodded and Jenny understood the gesture.They made their way to the first floor.With Jenny's squad keeping watch of the situation outside, and the surveillance camera disconnected, Noah knew he had enough time to destroy the three Generals and the Chief Of Army Staff.Soon, they stopped at a door. They heard people discussing.The voices they heard earlier came from the room.Immediately, Jenny sent a message to her squad members who were in the building.After a minute, they were all standing at strategic positions around the door.At that moment, Noah knocked on the door.The voices seized.Noah knocked again.This time, a voice rang out.“Come in, who is there?”“There's an urgent event. A fire outbreak occurred and the other soldiers have gone to quench it.”“Fire outbreak? Come in.”The door opened, it was controlled from the inside.With Noah still wearing the soldier's uniform, and the handkerchief around his nose. They welcomed him as one of their own.
Noah sighed and continued. “You hardly show your subordinates mercy. You don't deserve one.With that said Noah pulled the trigger and blew out the brain of the Chief Of Army Staff.Noah heaved in fulfillment. He had recovered what belonged to his family and gotten rid of the people behind his family's destruction.Noah got control of the door and opened it.Then he said, “Jenny, you all made this operation a flawless one.”Upon hearing that voice, Jenny wore a smile.“It went easier than I could have ever imagined.”They all gazed at the lifeless body in the room and then looked at Noah.They were all stunned that he could kill high-ranking people in the military so easily despite their skills and martial arts.Noah's martial skills can't be compared to another person.Noah widened his eyes. “Jenny, get that box. It's the Statue Made Of Pure Gold. Mission accomplished.”Noah looked at Jenny and said. “Reach out to your squad outside, what's the situation?”Jenny pulled out her phone
Soon, Andy returned with a box. “Here.”Noah collected it and placed it on the table as he rubbed his hand on it.Next, he pulled out a key from his pocket. It was the key Cynthia gave to him when they first met.Noah immediately finds the space for the key.He inserted the key in but it didn't fit in well.‘What’s wrong?’Noah asked inwardly.Noah tried to insert the key again but it still didn't fit in.At that moment, Andy noticed that Noah's expression had tightened.Andy said. “Let Cynthia come over, she might be able to open it. By the way, she claims it was the key to the box containing the Statue Made Of Pure Gold.”Casually Noah said, “Reach out to her.”Andy did as he was instructed.Soon, Cynthia arrived.“Welcome Cynthia, please try opening the box.”Noah said softly as he gave her the key.Noah concluded inwardly that if the key doesn't open the box then it implies either it's a wrong key or he retrieved the fake box.Cynthia collected the key and scratched it on her head
Andy took his leave to get what they'd need to carry out their plan.Noah on the other hand brought out the Statue Made Of Pure Gold. To his surprise, he saw a small book inside the box.He glanced at Cynthia and returned his attention to the book.After some minutes of hesitation, Noah picked up the book.It was titled “Wealth of Knowledge.”On the book cover, some words were written in a strange language.But Noah was familiar with the language but he didn't know much.He was curious to know the content of the book.Cynthia was also curious.“What’s the book about?”Noah opened the first page, he saw that each paragraph was written in a strange language and the next paragraph was translated into the English language.Noah read the first five paragraphs so fast and his face beamed with happiness.Cynthia was confused. “Noah, tell me. Does it have to do martial arts or anyone can have access to the book?”Noah looked at her. He understood what she meant, she also wanted to read the bo
