Victor entered the underground stadium which had 12,000 seats built around the arena. He initially thought it was just underground boxing, but as he began to ask the staff members and found out more details, he was repeatedly surprised. “Under the Skin… to think such a powerful organization exists in this place… I’m sure the governor and others know about this. They must be receiving their commissions.” However, he then saw the information board and realized that the governor was one of the chief guests. At the time, he didn’t know that it was the governor of UTS for this zone and mistook it for being the governor of the state, so he was genuinely shocked. “Why did you give me this address, Gabe? Does it hold any clues to my father’s death?” He continued investigating in his own way, and time passed very quickly. In the afternoon, Dave arrived at the meat shop. He was the guy that tried to shoot and kill Gabe for living in Zuri’s house. Dave also received the same treatment as Vi
Gabe’s POV: Recently, I broke out of the bubble of illusion and awakened to the reality of the supernatural and the evil that surrounds us… all too well. And it wasn’t a pleasant feeling, knowing the existence of wicked criminals and vampires who had no standards or morals and corrupted everything that was good, and these wolves in sheep’s clothing were the direct enemies of humanity and its integrity. Who can understand my frustration from knowing the truth that my parents might still be alive and yet not being able to find them right away? Who can help me gather evidence for what might be the craziest of journeys I’ve ever had? Who can help me seek the truth and fight the world in the process? Who can help me battle let alone kill the cancer plaguing humanity from the inside through pointless wars, divisions, and propaganda? Is putting an end to this reign of evil even possible? Sadness, disappointment, and anger embittered my heart ever so silently as I was staring out throu
The governor of UTS for the city, Rubel, and his wife Eunice who was the governor of the state were both traveling together in a pristine white limousine decked with gold. They were on their way to the meat shop.“Why is there so much hype for this match?” Eunice asked while sipping on wine. “I don’t get it. One is just an up and coming fighter who calls himself Gangsta. He did show some promising skills, but is he really worth all the attention he’s getting?”“You wouldn’t say that if you knew who his dad was,” Rubel said.“And who would that be?”“Do you remember Robert Brando?”“Pfft,” Eunice ended up spilling the wine out of her mouth.The driver stopped the car immediately. “Is everything alright, ma’am?”“Yeah, keep going,” Rubel’s eyes shone, and he hypnotized the driver who then focused solely on driving the car, not at all paying attention to what was happening behind him.“That brat is Robert Brandon’s son?” she looked at him with shock. “Then why the hell are you supporting
At Russell’s Tower, which was a 143-floored building built in Creed Zone. “Is it really necessary to do this?” Russell was talking with someone on a private line as he was standing next to the helicopter on the rooftop. “I don’t have a good feeling about this.” “Me, too,” Sansa replied from the other side, “but my people are not listening to me. I will try my best to keep him alive, Brother, but I cannot guarantee Gabriel’s life. My people will not want him to exist because he can be an unnecessary variable. On top of that, we’ve got information that Black Crows are on the move, so we’re pressed for time.” “So whether he wins against you or not, there’s going to be a fight, huh…” Russell frowned. “How low can the Aeson family stoop, Sansa? Is this really the same family from five years ago when you people helped me and my mom?” “We didn’t change, Brother. It’s just that… the importance of Alpha System is making my clan do all this,” Sansa explained pitifully. “That’s the reason why
“If you want answers for stupid questions, then you’ve come to the wrong person!” Russell clenched his fist and fearlessly went for a punch. The masked-man didn’t move an inch. He didn’t even bat an eyelid, but Russell’s fist was forcibly moved out of its path and completely missed hitting the opponent. “The hell?” Russell looked quite baffled. “The only reason your arm is still attached to your body is because I was told by our clan head to give you some face because you’ve been doing some good work these past few years,” the masked-man said. “However, all that good work won’t save you if you continue to piss me off. So, answer my question. Who has the Alpha System now?” Russell frowned slightly before saying, “Ah, wait… I remember it now. I think it’s in your grandmother’s grave.” “...Do you want me to push you from this height, Mr. Russell?” the masked-man asked. “Your family members won’t even be able to recognize your body if you fall from this height.” Russell calmly smiled
In the underground fighting hall.When Gabe entered the hall with Mia and Baazee, Victor and Dave saw them and recognized them.But they couldn’t even get close because there was so much crowd around them already, and they couldn’t move from their seats.Gabe and Mia were called to the VIP Box, where the likes of Rubel, Eunice, and others were waiting.Rubel shook Gabe’s hand with a bright smile and said, “I’m betting on you winning today, so do your best.”“If I do my best, you are going to cry,” Gabe answered quickly.“Pardon?”“Cry from happiness, I mean.”“Oh, ha-ha,” Rubel forced out a laugh.“My husband naturally cracks dry jokes,” Mia backed Gabe. “Please don’t take that as an insult or anything.”“Oh, it’s fine,” Eunice intervened. “We need at least that much spice in our lives to make them tasty. While Gangsta is fighting, why don’t you sit with us?” She offered Mia a seat next to her.“How can I sit next to the governor?” Mia responded humbly. “I’ll just stand on the side of
Sansa was in one of the rooms next to the fighting hall, with her father also present there, dumping makeup on her face. “Dad, is make up really necessary right now?” she asked. "And you're putting it terribly. I could have done way better." “A man knows how to decorate a woman more than women do. Also, do you know how many kingdoms fell because of a woman’s beauty?” Bilan asked her back. “Do you really want me to seduce 'him' in the middle of a fight?” Sansa retorted. “Do you think so low of me?” “No, I’m not telling you to do such stupid things,” he brushed her cheeks with powder, giving final touches. “You just gotta smile a little, and that should distract him enough. After all, my daughter is very good-looking. I’m sure he’ll be distracted when he looks at you and you just have to smile at him.” “Ugh, I can’t believe I’m letting you do this,” Sansa didn’t want to do all this, but Bilan was forcing her. “Trust me, you’ll easily win against him if you play your cards right, Sa
Gabe was sitting in the front row and was watching the friendly fights take place. This wasn’t his first time seeing fights like these, but right now, he was having a bit of a revelation.As he saw the fighters win the battles and seek attention, and get angry at those that booed at them, and displayed all kinds of so-called human emotions, he understood how vain these things were.Surely, the winners did earn a lot of money, but at what cost? Most fighters did not just try to win, but tried to crush the opponent so that they’d never be able to fight, much less look in the eye in the future.And the audience watching these fights were very harsh to the losers, and very friendly and favorable toward the winners.The only relief that Gabe could feel was that he did fight to impress others but more to impress himself, and also earn money at the same time.However, what would he have done if he didn’t have the alpha system with him? Would he have even dared to take part in such brutal fig
