Billiard sighed. “Antonia McArthur was hunted down and captured. Her father would have been able to save her using his power and influence. Yet, finding out that his own daughter was the traitor giving information to the rebellion for e, made things impossible. Antonia was subjected to the experiment without mercy. The technology was advanced, but it was quite gruesome to the body and mind of the subject. For the next few months, her body was forced to produce a lot of eggs. They also found the perfect sperm donors.” There was a brief silence, carrying with it a bone-chilling cold. “Just like that, the creations that you see today were the results of the cruel experiment she was subjected to.”William balled his fists as he felt righteous anger boiling through his heart. At first, Uthrra Island sounded like a kind of heaven on earth. Despite being hostile to the outside world, it could easily be assumed as some sort of utopian mini-world. Yet, it didn’t even take up to an hour befor
Billiard turned to his head butler. “Mike, you explain it to my grandson.” He was getting quite tired, and by the next few seconds, Commander Gideon had actually retrieved a chair for the old man to sit on.“Understood, Master Billiard.” Mike bowed slightly to the master of the McArthur family before turning to William. “Antonia’s father had quickly become a hungry militant after killing the other authorities. Uthrra Island had been turned into a literal hell on earth. It was right then when he was all geared up to lead the army of superhumans out of the Bermuda Triangle and take over the world, that he discovered that he had been someone else’s puppet, an object of a means to an end. More shocking was when he found out that his puppeteer was his own daughter.”William shook his head. “But how on earth is that possible?” The confusion was evident on his face. “Antonia was still locked away, so….”“It was her blood, Young Master William.” Head Butler Mike Barathea spoke with a stif
“Resentment?” William replied with a solemn tone. “The people who had survived those years of horrible treatment at the hands of their own leaders. There’s no way they would ever forgive what they had done. Unfortunately, Antonia’s win against the enemies would be less appreciated in comparison to her relationship with the oppressive side who were responsible for the death of their friends and families.” He shook his head. “They would go in to treat her weirdly, like an ‘unwanted and undesired’ hero.”Billiard smiled warmly at his grandson. “Astounding guess, my boy. You managed to impress me once again.”Mike Barathea couldn’t help but clap his hands a few times. “Young Master William, your brilliance is truly impressive.”Commander Gideon could only stare with shock at the McArthur heir. “Young Master William, I like how you didn’t even ask for assurance when giving that answer. You sounded so sure. Wow!” He clearly stated what exactly about William’s reply shocked him.William
Mike smirked at this. “The nickname ‘Mother of the Hidden Daggers’ was earned by ancestors Antonia when she was hunted down by six major underground bosses. At the time, Antonia had extended one of her businesses into their territories in South America, and it was greatly affecting the illegal dealings of these gangs. Six of the biggest Mafia bosses came together to kill Antonia. That night, they had prepared so much to end her. Their plan to kill her should have been foolproof, but they had no idea that Antonia had her secret weapon in place. She was well aware of the chances that this was a trap, and she had prepared a far more brilliant counterattack against these Mafia bosses. That night would be spent with countless gunshots and screams going off, according to the history books. In the end, the Mafia bosses were subdued, but they were spared. That night, they had witnessed how their sneak attacks against Antonia ended up in futility. The most significant part was that these Mafi
This was another brilliant question by William. According to the story, it made sense that the McArthur bodyguards would obey Antonia more than her father, as they all came from her. It also made sense that they gravitated towards Antonia’s son after she died as he was her direct descendant. But as the years went by, the McArthur family grew in extensions, and there were now a lot of people carrying Antonia’s bloodline. Why are the McArthur bodyguards only following Billiard’s commands at the highest?This time, Commander Gideon gave William the reply. “Young Master, it’s not that complicated at all. Ever since the McArthur family began growing in numbers, as descendants multiplied, we began resonating with more than one person, so we exerted the power of choice. We, as the McArthur bodyguards, choose who we give out loyalty to, putting great recognition in the position of the family head.”William nodded his head. “basically, your ability to choose us is not hindered by the lack o
“Except you shouldn’t forget that such a technological device already existed on Uthrra Island centuries ago.” Billiard wiggled his right index finger at William. “Ancestor Antonia didn’t leave her home empty-handed. She had various complex plans, a lot of which she began enacting once she got on the North American continent. One of the things she took away from Uthrra Island was the blueprint to create creatures from the single cell of a parent subject. The machine was specifically created for the McArthur bodyguards, to maintain Uthrra Island’s reign once they’ve conquered the world. Long before her death, Antonia and her son were able to finish building this technological device, and over the years, it has been remodeled.”William was astonished. “A device capable of creating a human being from a single cell.” He rubbed a palm on the back of his neck. “In that case, why not just create more McArthur bodyguards? Or is the thousands under the family command already satisfactory?”“
William took about three days to fully digest the origin of his ancestor. For the most, the incidents that took place on Uthrra Island were simply too astonishing to swallow whole. In fact, the existence of Uthrra Island in the Bermuda Triangle was mind-blowing alone. During these few days, William familiarized himself more with the McArthur bodyguards, going to the Colosseum to watch the thousands of men and women train intensely on a daily basis. It was clear to him by now that none of them took their existential role as protectors of the McArthur family members lightly. It simply reminded him of how Abigail and the one hundred McArthur bodyguards would train intensely daily back at the William estate in Bel Air City.After spending hours watching these bodyguards train, he would then head inside the base, going underground to check on how fast Abigail and the twenty-two McArthur bodyguards were recuperating well. He was able to draw out their stats and he was relieved to see th
For the rest of the week, William checked out the various sectors of operations in the McArthur estate, like the Intelligence Unit’s base. There, he read up on various information, all of which he now had access to. There was now very little restriction to knowledge placed upon him by his grandfather. Billiard’s words were direct when he praised his grandson for passing all the tests he threw his way.“Through all the challenges that have either been placed as obstacles in your path, including the ones that you accidentally found yourself in, you have shown great results in the application of intelligence and intuition when tackling them. I’m proud to call you my grandson. I’m proud to call you the heir to the McArthur business empire, and I’m truly happy to let you know that your beginning trial is now over. With that, you are no longer restricted in terms of the information you can access. If there is information that can’t be accessed or you come across ones that haven’t been unco
