"What I don't understand is why I wasn't informed about the other topics," Alexander asked, as he simply ignored Williams' order as if he hadn't heard it."It appears that we may have overlooked informing your group, Alexander. We assumed that because your group is the weakest, you might feel embarrassed and choose not to attend," said one of the individuals on the table, causing everyone to laugh at his remark. Despite the pretense, the meetings were far from democratic. The group with the most members was considered the king, while the lowest member was viewed as nothing more than a provider of cannon fodder for protests and other activities. The only reason they had not expelled Alexander's group from their coalition was that they needed their numbers. As Alexander heard their response, he stormed out of the meeting room, slamming the door behind him out of frustration.On his way to the bathroom, he kept seeing their grinning faces, which started to irritate him, causing his an
When the morning sun peeked over the horizon, Aron paused his Runic training and logged out of the Universal Simulation to go and prepare himself for the surprise journey.But before he prepared anything for his journey, he needed to do something else first.He laced up his running shoes and headed out for his daily run and other exercises to complete his daily quest. As he pounded the pavement, his mind raced with excitement for his plan finally reaching the starting point.The significance of the meeting between Aron and Alexander cannot be overstated, as it was crucial for Aron to at least have a face to face with Alexander before fully committing to the plan. Aron was planning to invest billions of dollars to achieve his goals, and thus, he deemed it necessary to come face to face with Alexander before he fully committed.After finishing his daily quest, Aron returned home and quickly showered and dressed for the journey ahead. After he finished his dressing he picked up his wa
Ting!!!!Alexander was jolted out of his deep thoughts by the sound of the elevator indicating that he had reached his destination.The fact that he reached his destination earlier than expected, without the elevator making any stops, caught him off guard. This was particularly unusual given the size of the resort he was in.What he didn't know was that one of the advantages of staying in a presidential suite is the privilege of using a special card key that grants exclusive access to the elevator leading to the suite. If you happen to be the only occupant of the elevator, it will not make any stops on other floors, even if someone else has called it, until it reaches the designated presidential suite.Once he regained his composure, he adjusted his suit and checked that his gun was still in place at his waist. He then took a step forward and exited the elevator, walking straight into the presidential suite."Welcome," a voice echoed through the expansive suite welcoming him.As Alex
"What do you think attracted most of his attention from the plan you sent him?" Aron asked Nova for her thoughts, as he waited for the printer he had asked the hotel staff to send him.Yes, a printer.And yes to that question too, If you happen to be lodged in a presidential suite, you have the luxury of requesting almost anything you desire, and the hotel staff will do their best to accommodate your requests, provided they are feasible. Something like asking for a printer.Despite the successful conclusion of the meeting, there is still a need for them to reconvene tomorrow, albeit briefly, to finalize the signing of the contract.{I think it was the infrastructural support that attracted the most of his attention. By simply reading the summary, he was able to deduce that the minimum cost required to achieve it would be approximately $500 million.In addition, if we successfully establish the intended structure, executing the rest of the plan would be a breeze, as effortless as reci
"With this our agreement has been officially formalized," Aron stated as he signed his name on the second contract.Aron seemed happy, the same could be said for Alexander, but he was having another thought in his mind as he had experienced an odd sensation, as if something had briefly embraced him when he finished signing the contract.The sensation that Alexander felt was not unfounded. To those with the ability to perceive magic, a luminous golden aura would have been visible, enfolding and permeating Alexander the instant he concluded his final signature.The radiant glow was a result of the runic contract, which had been established to keep a watchful eye on Alexander and alert the other party should he ever violate any of its terms.Aron had also experienced the same illumination, but being the enforcer, he had the ability to annul the contract on his end, leaving only the one on Alexander still in effect."I am curious, Aron," Alexander asked as he shook his hand, "why enter in
The next day, Aron logged out of the virtual reality feeling refreshed. He completed his daily quest before cleaning himself up and preparing for his meeting with Sarah. After double-checking that he was fully prepared, he grabbed his phone and watch and headed where his car, driver and bodyguard was, ready to take him to the company."Good morning," Aron greeted Donald."Morning," Donald greeted back as he opened the car door for Aron to get in, and then closed it behind him.He then took a seat in the front of the car before the driver started the engine and they began their journey to GAIA technology......Rina Rothchild's Manor.Rina could be seen sitting inside her office.It has been three days since she met and had a talk with Aron who had given him Ava.Ava was still decrypting the encrypted backed up data and still had 4 more days before she completed this process.Despite Ava's ongoing work with decrypting the data, Rina still had plenty to do. Ava was actively intercepting
Next day.In the morning as he was doing his daily quest which had become a habit for him and he was not doing it to just complete the quest he received a phone call.He paused his activity and retrieved his phone to discover that his friend Felix was on the other end of the line. Without hesitation, he answered the call.After placing the phone to his ear, he greeted Felix with a simple "Hello"."How are you doing?" inquired Felix, addressing Aron."I'm doing well, how about yourself?" replied Aron."I'm doing good too," echoed Felix."Why did you call me?" Aron inquired immediately after their exchange of greetings."What? Am I not allowed to call my friend anymore?" Felix asked, feigning offense at Aron's question."Don't play dumb, you know exactly why I asked. Why are you calling me in the morning when you're supposed to be at work? Do you want me to report you to Sarah?" Aron teased Felix, with a hint of humor in his tone."I am working right now, actually. Sarah selected me as
3 Days later.Rina Rothchilds mansion.Rina arrived at her work room earlier than she typically did as today marked the final day for Ava to finally complete the task of decrypting and analyzing the encrypted data that had been backed up."Ava, is it done?" She asked, as she was eager to find out the identity of the person who had betrayed her and start the process of cleaning up.{A few more hours Rina.} Ava replied back softly while showing a makeshift progress bar on her computer screen to indicate the expected completion time and ease Rina's anxiety."Okay," Rina said, as she sat down on her chair, her eyes glued to the screen, waiting for the completion of the task. She felt a mix of anticipation and nervousness, hoping that everything would go as planned and they could access the crucial data she needed....…."So, you guys are leaving for Eden today?" Aron asked Felix, who was on the other end of the phone."Yes," Felix explained his reasoning over the phone to Aron. "We need t
