Genesis: Freed.

Chapter 14:

No matter how much you do, people don't change and that's reasonable, humans are afraid of everything they don't know and the Genisians keep humans safe even though they are slaughtered. Some become corrupted but it is because they also fear for their lives and that of their people, after the union of the worlds, some humans began to obtain new capabilities or as the experts say to "awaken them", some came to have more strength than an average human, others have developed a level of magic to defend themselves and very few have developed the ability to see the auras of those around them.

Due to those events, they decided to create the corporations that were going to declare the limit of power, the scale of justice, but only one managed to fulfill that promise, Damocles. A young director had accepted the place when that organization was about to collapse, so it would be easy for the previous directors to blame the new director, but he did everything necessary to clean up the mess of the previous ones, making that organization a protection system. successful and glamorous.

Five days after the incident, the minister of the diplomacy area was able to leave the infirmary while the investigator and engineer from the headquarters had just woken up. He still had his suspicions about how a mysterious man could have the information of those responsible and even though Clemente told him to leave him, he would not listen, he distrusted all his actions but could not investigate him because the director had decided so.

In the city of Claython , the three prestigious companies were united in an apartment under construction, you could see the plastic on the floor and on the walls where the doors were indicated, which revealed three blurred figures with some sheets in hand. Those people were the leaders of the company, one of them had light green hair with mint green eyes, on his neck he wore a water valve as if it were a scarf which protected gills that could be seen on the green-haired man's neck .

The next person had short, frayed black hair, his ears were semi-pointed and his eyes were bluish-gray, his tone was dark-haired and he was taller than the green-haired man, but the young man stood out the most from all those colors. albino who despite being tall looked short before those figures.

Both men with bright colors were university students, who at that age already had prestige in the business area, so they did not have as many fights with other companies as Winter had, since the albino, being a young high school student, had to assume the charge of the company at such a young age, over time he was forced to keep his guard up and keep in mind that he will always be in the shark's nest.

—Mr . Zion , do you already have the report on the new farms? — Asked the albino while looking at one of the leaves.

“That's right, the new estates are being rebuilt at incredible speed and with great caution. At this rate we can finish next week. — The dark-skinned young adult answered.

"I'm impressed with how fast they're moving." — The green-haired man commented to both collaborators.

—Well, it's because you have two of the best companies in Maverick as collaborators . - The brunette boasted.

—We only do what is due with the new security measures, besides, if we wanted to, we would finish this week. The albino answered coldly.

The brunette was overshadowed by that frivolous comment from the young albino.

"You shouldn't be such a spoilsport, brag a little at least, assume we're good for this society." - The green-haired man said nervously.

—What makes us so good is not the way we organize things but the people who work for us. Thanks to them we are where we are, I don't like to brag about something I have for the people who work for me, I prefer to thank my employees. —

Both university students remained silent at those words and then reviewed the sheets, Winter was not one of those people who came to show off their things, on the contrary, he came to despise that wealth for what he tended to share it with the people who really needed it, to sometimes he took care of his long-term employees in the company and sometimes he paid the hospital bills of his employees and their families. He was someone who, despite being hermetic, was always aware of his people.

The people of the company recognized him for being so kind and reserved for some it was his son, for others a brother and for some his grandson, very few considered him a friend but that was very rare since he always tended to be very formal with the others. the rest.

Winter would begin to review other sheets while the rest turned to look at him, both young people looked at how concentrated the albino was when reviewing those graphs and security measures. Zion and his partner, Zander knew that the boy worked hard when it came to a project that meant a lot to people, they were aware of how important this was to him, so much so that they could see those dark circles under his pale eyelids.

—You should sleep more, have you ever had a pleasant dream? — Asked the brunette.

—The work in the work, the personal in the personal. You should already know. - The boy answered sharply.

The green-haired man would laugh nervously at that answer, so he would end up taking out his phone and then giving a slight cry of surprise, making the dark-haired man look at him with a horrified face while the albino looked at him out of the corner of his eye.

"It's the representatives of Damocles, they're on their way." The green-haired man said excitedly.

— Why are you proud of an organization that could not prevent this catastrophe? Winter questioned as she placed one of the sheets on the table.

Kacper 's look was serious at that question so Zion had to get up suddenly.

— Are you also one of those who hates those people who put their lives at risk to keep the peace? —

— I am realistic and neutral in that aspect, you should know more than anything Dereck Zion Or is it that you want me to train you again so that you understand? —

—I understand what you're trying to say, but I'm not one to support or deny help to someone, I'm just glad to know that people like that don't give up before people who plan to harm their goals. Zander replied with a slight blush.

Winter could hear that mental emotion on Zander 's part so she decides to just get up with a neutral expression and leave that room. Both teenagers had been stunned because the albino had never done something like that, so they assumed it was due to exhaustion.

On the way he was able to find a vending machine where he had energy drinks, coffee, soft drinks among other drinks. Winter would get an energy drink from the machine, it was a red and black can with a lightning bolt emblem and gothic letters , the albino's favorite. I drank a couple of them a day when I wasn't resting well but when they were big projects I drank up to four of those cans.

"That type of drink is bad for young people like you, they damage the kidneys when consumed frequently ," explained a manly voice before being sharply interrupted.

—The others from the project are waiting for you in room S-8 and tell the difference between whether or not I ask for information, Nurse. Here I am an entrepreneur and not a student. The boy remarked with a cold look as he opened his drink.

Akira could not forgive such arrogant and disrespectful behavior on the part of the boy but as much as it hurt him he had to admit that the boy was right so he had to keep his distance, while the director only looked at the young albino who seemed to see him with seriousness to then guide them to room S-8.

Arriving at the makeshift office, both college students decided to prepare the seats for the professionals while Winter went to her seat to continue drinking.

"Sorry I'm late, guys. I had to give some lectures after the arrest of the Arwald brothers . - Director Darrin said .

"Don't worry, it must have been exhausting having to find the evidence necessary to arrest them." The green-haired man replied.

—It's good that those bastards have been arrested, they asked me for shares to use against the Genisians . Zion commented with his arms crossed .

—They also wanted me on their side, they wanted to promote violence on television. The green-haired man continued.

Both Genisians turned to see the albino who was drinking when he suddenly guides his gaze to those who were watching him.

"I guess you're relieved not to have Simon near you, you had frequent run-ins with him." Zion said with a calm tone.

—300 contracts rejected, 12 proposals rejected, 67 petitions ignored, it's reasonable for someone addicted to gunfighting to rage and try to create chaos to put other people to shame. The world of power and riches is disgusting. - The albino exposed and then continued drinking. —Leaving this issue aside, I want Damocles to remain in charge of the security that I have created based on what is known about the matter of the catastrophe.

—I don't think the president agrees with it, we've already tried it. — Mr. Akira commented .

“You, not me. I have contacted him and I have shown him the effectiveness of the system, which is much more effective than the system that you carry. — The albino would leave his drink on the table and lean back in his chair. "I will make a contract with the president that Damocles will be under my supervision, I will let you work as normal while leaning against the precision of this new security." Which will benefit you. —

—With all due respect, if we and the president accept your proposal, your image will be involved. We are up to our necks in water and we do not want to harm you. — Said the director with an embarrassed tone.

—Organizations, that's why I hardly do business with government organizations. —

Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Akira are confused so they decide to keep quiet.

—Let's see, how can I explain them so that their mature minds pay attention to me? Yes, I know how. I don't care at all. People are never satisfied with what is done or not done. If they fear or admire me, it will only give me more publicity in business life, it increases my status. Do you understand? —

—Young Winter is right, no matter what we do, today the citizens may be grateful but tomorrow they are after us for mistakes we make. Zander shared as he took a seat.

“You will be shown a simulation of the security system that will be called Blizzard. For now I will go see the engineers, they must have doubts about the new models. —

— Shall I accompany you? Zion asked with a calm tone.

— Do you see me as a preschool brat? I can go alone and return alone. — The boy attacked with a sharp tone.

The albino grabbed the reddish beverage can, which was empty, to leave the makeshift office, leaving the professionals with their two co-workers.

“He hasn't a shred of respect for authority. Takasugi commented as he crossed his arms.

—Yes, he does, but only with a few, lately he's been stressed about all this. The green-haired man replied.

—It is normal that among businessmen we can have a certain confidence, but some want to be smart when they see that you are a rookie. In Winter's case, he had to assume the position of the company at 13 years of age, he had to fall again and again to be where he is, he had to receive humiliations to humiliate others and despite this, he continues to receive threats of his enemies. That's why so distant; so airtight — The brunette would decide to take a seat. "It's still hard for me to remember how Zander and I ended up being Winter's allies."

"That's when he humiliated you." At that time you were a rebellious and pretentious Wolf but what you never expected was to run into Winter's icy wall, as you saw that he received more attention from the girls you decided to try to humiliate him in front of them but he returned it to you three times and still finished you off a fourth time. Since that day you are a trained wolf. —

— Ugh …. It was at the time of the rebellion. Ah, but yours was funnier, you wanted to seduce him but his guards kept you away from him for 5 months. —

“Oh shut up, I was in my stage where the world revolved around me. But now that I think about it, Winter hasn't shown those sides that all teenagers show. —

—That means that Mr. Nestor Taras was an excellent educator for Zackharov . —

“I see you know young Winter well. They are friends? Director Darrin asked happily .

Both boys stood with their eyes wide open at that question and then scratched the back of their necks nervously because they didn't have the right answer for that question.

—No, we only heard rumors about Winter's guards but if we talk personally, he never had any friends, Zander and I were between 18 and 19 years old when we found out that Winter was the new leader of the company. We have never seen him with someone beside him other than Mr. Taras--

"Besides, her upbringing is obvious, Winter has her father's demeanor and that of Mr. Taras." Winter was a very mature boy for his age and very realistic about things. —

The boys talked a little more about the albino but it was all the same, you never knew about his personal life and despite the fact that they were rumours, the professionals understood a little more about the behavior of the albino.

Kacper was reviewing the good work of the employees while answering his questions when suddenly out of the corner of his eye he looked at a tall, thin man with brown hair and elk antlers walking towards the boy while looking at the farm structures.

“I like the good work they do here. Said that man with a soft and peaceful voice.

"You do what you should, Mr. President." - The boy replied. “Let him take you to the little makeshift office we have. —

“Of course, you are Young Guide Winter. —

The oldest followed the youngest who was explaining the structures of the new haciendas, homes that had a security system installed, which, when activated by a natural disaster or events like the one five days ago, would activate making those houses a refuge. safe for people. The president seemed convinced by these renovations because, like the boy, he wanted his people to be safer than before.

In the elevator they began to share points of view, which some were mutually accepted and others rejected in the same way and so they continued as they arrived at the office.

“You continue to amaze me, Young Winter. There are very few boys his age who share relevant topics, it's as if I had talked to a person my age throughout this journey. —

'It is not difficult for me to carry on a conversation as interesting as yours, sir. In fact, that topic was more interesting to me than the others we've had. —

Damocles' representatives, Principal Lockwood and his assistant Akira along with albino Dereck 's collaborators Zion and Aramis Zander had been stunned because the boy's attitude was not the same as a few minutes ago. It was seen that it was another person but it still had that touch of seriousness.

When the president turned around, he could see the two professionals get up to give a slight bow in respect to what he decides to turn to see the young albino.

—So, you will be aware of the management of this new security called Blizzard? For how long? the man questioned.

—Yes, I'll be aware, let's say it's a reprimand to the Corporation and as for the time, it will be for 6 months. —

The city representative was not totally in favor of leaving security at Damocles but if Zackharov Industries knew about it for 6 months his concern would lessen.

—Young Zackharov . The older man said seriously. -I'll be honest, I don't trust Damocles but I do trust you, I've followed you since your father made you known and since you took over the company, you've made your name a recognized emblem but just for this occasion I'll accept a contract that will give me gives great mistrust. Regardless, whether or not the Arwald brothers had anything to do with it, that organization must have known about it. You understand me, right? —

—I understand you and I appreciate that you are honest with me but I will also have to return that honesty. Damocles is an organization that has shown efficacy during these 10 years, we should have him given the benefit of the doubt after that incident. As I said, I will be aware and I will notify you every end of the month if we find out something serious I will notify you personally and if the project turns out to be a failure, I Winter Kacper Zackharov I will take responsibility for such failure. —

Those words echoed in the room, his voice did not have a doubt or tremor and his gaze was firm, the president ended up shaking his hand and signing the deal and then leaving in the company of the university students while Damocles' representatives saw the boy .

—That attitude you must show in school, boy. —

"Tempt me one more time and I'll keep you from stepping foot in the place." — The boy would release a sigh letting himself be recharged in the backrest and would massage the bridge of his nose.

—You shouldn't be so stressed, you have some good colleagues who can help you deal with this. —

"Just because we work together doesn't mean we're trusting partners, we just do what's right, no more." — The boy would stretch out his arm to grab a sheet from the pile. - This is the contract of our temporary alliance, if your team makes a mistake I will also be making a mistake, do you understand right? Try not to make a mistake, I like everything to go as planned. —

"You shouldn't have made a deal like that." —

—It has already been confirmed and signed on paper. It cannot be annulled, you have until tomorrow to sign the treaty, the departments that I will require for this will be diplomacy and investigation. Can you bring me a representative from those two areas for tomorrow. —

That day ended and the young albino went home late at night, the city of Claython was far away so he had to call Erza to look for him in that building. Winter would come home and do the same old routine; sleep on the couch for about five minutes because I still had work to do.
