Astra remembered the promise she made to Mita which she doesn't want to break. She also thought that Kira, with his knowledge, would be of help at the human federation base.But if i must continue with my plan to escape, i can't tell Kira everything. Over the last three years, I have learnt not to trust anybody, especially not the son of the must heartless human being i have ever seen. Astra thought "alright. I will go with you when am going, but henceforth, you will do as i say and do things only when i tell you to do them. I can't give any chance to be caught" Astra told Kira. Kira couldn't hide his excitement when he found out that he will be leaving Rigasa. Not just that, he will be going to see the role model he had never seen, Carter. And this will be an opportunity for him to learn even more, perhaps build his first perfectly working robot with the help of Carter. Astra explained to Kira all she has been working on without him. But she made him promise not to try to interfer
Ever since his return, King Agnus has given several orders that got people wondering why he did so. The king Agnus that was the only helion commander in the entire empire was different. King Agnus has given a directive for helion to be given to house Tyra despite their strong enmity towards house Agnus. While the prince was still trying to understand why that was necessary, king Agnus also ordered the prince to give helion to house Estelona for no apparent reason. King Agnus also changed his mind about the invasion. He gave orders that the invasion should be suspended until further notice. Mean while, the war against the Terrans in Terra continues. Prince Adriel had become wary of his father's recent activities. The return of his father no longer makes him feel relevant. His father is suppose to be the former king who has handed over to his son, but he is acting as good as the king or the person with the helion commandment. The prince was in his chamber when the he got the news t
The prince has waited longer than he expected Claria to take. While he is afraid of being caught, he is also afraid that Claria might get caught or recognised by out there. After about twenty more minutes of waiting for Claria to return with a chariot, he got scared of staying and decided to go check on her. He walked towards the direction where she went with his head still covered. When Claria got back with a chariot and two horses dragging it in front, she could not find the prince or any trace of his where about. She looked around the place and asked the only two persons she saw. "has he been recognized and captured by the army? Where could he be? I am very sure that i am in the right place where i told him to wait for me. If he has been captured, then I guess it's up to me to rescue him against the whole mighty army of the house tyra" Claria thought randomly. Claria got down from the chariot and sat down on the ground waiting for nothing in particular. Her confusion grew and h
Prince Adriel and Claria covered their heads and faces as much as possible to avoid being detected, especially if the people of Bima have been notified of their coming. The only hope of the prince and Claria is that the village people are not aware of their coming and they don't know who they are. After about twenty more minutes of riding on the chariot with horses that looks dead tired and hungry, they were finally at a stone throw distance from Bima.When they entered the village, they noticed that the small village is full of mostly men and less of women and children. Bima is just another underground market that has turned into a community of criminals and old criminals. This is the reason why the demography of the village looks the way it is. The village is not healthy for children and women, especially young women. The only young or middle age women in the small village are high end criminals who are capable handling any kind of danger any man can approach them with. But the
"for the past two hundred years, no one has ever done close to what you both have done. This is a royal theft. It's the highest, any criminal has ever gone. I don't you both but i am so proud of you" Bako said to them as the whole tent became quiet to listen to him. The prince and Claria were still not very clear on what Bako is saying. "why is he this happy about the gold ring? For a criminal like him, why is a ring such a big deal to him?" Claria asked in her head.When Bako was done with his chanting and announcements, he held the prince and Claria by the shoulders and say to them "my friends! You have made me and every other criminal proud. You are the first to steal such an item"The prince and Claria both looked confused and lacked words to say to Bako. But in order not to look awkward in a moment they are not suppose to, Claria said "we are very excited that you what we have done""yes i like what you have done a lot. Criminals like you belong here. You are suppose to be here
"take me to where you hid them. I don't have all day. I need to take them back to the empire Now" king Skar said to Bako.Bako is a man that doesn't trust easily or joke with anything that has money tied to it. To him right now, his prisoners are nothing but money.It doesn't matter who Skar is to him, Bima is a place where only criminals are respected and regarded. This is the reason why the words of king Skar are just not enough for Bako to act against his principals. "i don't think you understand your highness. You have to pay me before you see the prisoners. It doesn't matter who you think you. As a matter of fact, you are an enemy of Bima because your laws have killed a lot of us. So stop wasting time and pay the ransom" Bako said to king Skar. When the royal guards of house Tyra heard Bako spoke to king Skar in a rude manner, they all raised their swords up and pointed them towards Bako. In less than a minute, all the criminals in the village reacted by pulling out different
"i really don't know how this happened. It was suppose to be here. I swear i am not trying to trick you" the criminal replied. Bako walked to where the criminal was help on both arms bu his guards. He asked them to kneel him down. While he is ln his knees, Bako brought out a long nail and hold it on the criminals head. He opened his other hand that has been behind, a guard handed him a hammer in it. Bako bent down to the level of the face of the criminal and say to him "this is your last chance to say the truth""i... I....dont have the....." before he could complete the short sentence, Bako hit the nail hard with the hammer, so much that all of it disappeared into the skull of the criminal. Bako released the hammer to the ground and begin to turned round and round pointing his finger in all the directions. "this is what happens when you disappoint me or try to play wise here in Bima. Let everyone know this!" Bako concluded and began to walk back to his tent while the guards holdi
After just about a mile riding out of the village, the day is getting dark and weather is getting colder. They are now riding as fast as the bikes could ever go. A journey they thought wouldn't take more than a day, and without much fuss, has become an unforgettable nightmare. The next village is not even in sight yet. All they could see, is a flat long and wide space on which they continue to ride fast. No matter how fast they drive, it's as if they are not getting anywhere at all. Back in the village, an old man stopped Bako's guards and offer to give them the information they seek for the gold which they offered Jago. They gave him and the gold and ask that he tell them where to get the prince. When he told them the direction which the prince has gone, they forcefully collected all the gold back from him by threatening him with a small knife on his throat. They got on their hover quad bikes and began to ride outside the village, towards the direction given to them by the old m
