2024-10-29 19:42:56A few minutes later, Clark finally drove back to his friend’s mansion. Throughout the journey, none of them spoke as they digested everything that happened in the past hour.
Leaving 2 aging parents devastated was not an experience that Clark wanted to remember, but he knew that what he did was necessary.
Perhaps, because his parents died when he was young, he could not comprehend how the couple felt but he knew that it was painful to lose a loved one.
The money that he sent to the aged couple was an outrageous amount of money for a burial, but he didn’t send the money to them for that.
Seeing how devastated they were, he took it as a responsibility upon himself that he would never live to see the both of them lack anything.
Benny was their one and all, their only child that they directed all their love to. His death was traumatizing enough, he did not want any other suffering to befall the aging couple.
At least, with a million Spartan

None of the airplanes in the Delhi City airport were verified to take off to Vatican City and as he didn’t want to impose his authority on any civilians, Clark took the road. As soon as he arrived back at the highway, he pressed hard on the accelerator to the maximum as the car basically started flying across the road. At such a high speed, this was when he finally knew how badass this military vehicle that he was given was. He didn’t know the correct specifications, but he suspected that this car was of a higher level than his exotic car. Upgrading his exotic car was one of the priorities that were on his agenda as soon as he got back, so he was in no rush to get a new car. At an average speed of 600km/h, he sped across the highway like the flash. Of course, red flags were raised and the road safety officials were alerted but as soon as they knew that it was a military vehicle, they retreated. This was one of the joys, freedom, and priv

“Is it true?” Commissioner Martian quickly stood up to face his companion while asking, a surprised but excited look on his face. “I don’t know. I just received the news this morning from my secretary, so I informed all of you”. Commissioner Crook answered with a helpless expression on his face as his 3 companions surrounded him enthusiastically. He felt like cursing. “Don’t you have any dignity as old as you guys are?” Though this was what he thought in his heart, he could not say it out. Still, seeing a bunch of old geezers surrounding him and throwing questions at him gave him a headache. Calming himself down, he patiently answered their queries, even to ridiculous questions like if he was in the bathroom when his secretary brought the news to him. They justified themselves by saying that for such important information, his secretary could barge into anyplace just to let him know at the fastest time possible. For that, he an

>THE BLACK WEEK> This flashed on the holographic screen as a series of edited opening scenes quickly followed in rapid succession. A lot of edited graphics took the screen for about a minute before the real footage started. The screen background took on a blood-red tone, making Clark stiffen as his nerves became stretched taut. Then it started… … “Sir, the terrorists stayed through to their claim. There have been reported attacks in 7 vantage points, the city’s emergency security guards are already stretched thin”. “By your orders, we intend to send reinforcements immediately”. Sergeant Maria had a distressed but serious expression on her face. “Have you contacted the commissioners?” Corporal Cinnabar also had a serious expression on his face, his tone now deeper than ever. “No, sir. We were waiting for your input”. “Ok, call them now”. After an intense section of discussion through virtual projections wit
THE CONSPIRACY OF THE ELITES. CHAPTER 290: AN UNPRECEDENTED DECISION/PLAN.
After entering his car, Clark did not take a single glance back as he drove out of the government building the next moment. As he drove his veins throbbed repeatedly, making his face seem older but he didn’t seem to notice. As soon as he stormed out of the conference hall, King quickly followed after him. At such a delicate moment, King was sensitive enough not to irritate him. Though he was not a Spartan citizen nor a Vatican, watching the recorded footage was still enough to rile him up, making him have strong hatred on sight against the so-called Persian tigers. If he felt like this and he was unrelated to the casualties, he just could not imagine how Clark felt. Seeing children being butchered brutally like pigs, old men being kicked to death like stray dogs, couples being shot to death like they mean nothing, he felt a wave of simmering anger engulf his heart. How can humans be so cruel? Yes, he was a soldier but such cruelty stil
THE CONSPIRACY OF THE ELITES. CHAPTER 291: NABBING THE THIEF.
After Clark made up his mind, his conscience became free again. Enjoying the feeling of freedom from guilt, he continued speeding across the road, straight in the direction of the highway. The forest reserve surrounding this road was among the smallest sized in the city, despite this it was still a few kilometers big. This meant that the road going through it was also long, over 2 kilometers. Clark estimated that he would get to the highway in just a few minutes so he was currently relaxed, listening to the music that was blasting from his car’s hidden sound amplifiers. As the song played, this was when he deduced that it was a long time ago since he last listened to a piece of music. He was stunned by this discovery, was he so cut off from society now? “Hey! Who is the trending musician now?” “Hmm?” King turned to him with a lazy expression on his face as he chewed on a pack of chocolate. “I asked who the current trending musician was

“Are you sure that you don’t know who this guy is?” King asked as he curiously examined the so-called thief’s face. “No, I’ve never heard of him”. Clark had an exasperated expression on his face. “I think he’s a foreigner, I would have recognized someone like him if he was from these environs”. “I envy him”. “What?” “Are you deaf? I said I envy him”. King looked up with a real expression of envy on his face. “To use so many top-notch gadgets of high-grade country standards, it means that his father is a freaking billionaire”. “Oh, what I would sacrifice to be born to a billionaire dad! Then, I will have access to all the bombs that I want”. “That’s even little. If I want, I can spend billions lavishly just to build a bomb research base, and spend even more billions to hire the best of the best experts to help me cook out all the bombs of my dreams”. Clark had an aghast expression on his face; he shook his head. “You’re not seri

Albert was having the time of his life since 2 days ago when he made the abrupt decision to accept Clark as his teacher. It was abrupt but he didn’t regret it in the slightest, he was happy that he made the decision. Though after he made up with Clark and he returned the resources that he stole to get his attention, he still didn’t get much of Clark’s attention, he was compensated in ways that he did not expect. “Where will you find a bunch of unemployed and unengaged high-grade soldiers to train and spar with? The answer is Major Clark’s mansion”. Since 18 years ago when he just came to this world through his mom’s womb, this was the first time that he was seeing so many high-grade soldiers with such free time. With Captain Josh around, Jason and his clique of subordinates, even King, he was not bored at all. His training and improvement efficiency already increased by a lot after sparing so many times with these experts, he felt on top of the world.
THE CONSPIRACY OF THE ELITES. CHAPTER 294: CAPTAIN CLARK.
Seeing the name of the caller that was flashing on his military phone’s screen, Clark became dazed for a moment as memories got jumbled up and hit his brain at a rapid frequency. After so long being separated, he already mostly forgot about this Captain. But now just by merely seeing his name, he felt like he went back in time. Apart from Captain Spoky who was still till today the captain that had the most impact in his life, the next was Captain Briggs. They may have only met once in a mission, but that mission changed his life. Captain Briggs was the leader of his squad during the operation Spartan’s Rage mission, there was no way that he could forget the man. As he smiled with a reminiscing expression on his face, his phone suddenly vibrated. “Phone call will be terminated in 20 seconds”. “Shit!” He quickly answered the phone call before it could be terminated. After answering the call, he kept quiet and listened. The other side als

After 22 years as a single, General Clark Pendragon was finally ready to tie the nut with his fiancée. The name of the street where the ceremony was commencing was given and commissioned a few days after Clark became a General. Some of the most esteemed guests attending the marriage ceremony were the legendary President of the Spartan republic, Leonidas, and the armor tycoon, the billionaire Mr. Calibri of the Dakran republic. These 2 people were such powerful and well-known personalities in their own rights that their attendance alone shot the attention being given to the marriage ceremony to the highest point.

“Leonidas, you wish to attend?”Hearing that, the Spartan President sighed, exasperated. “If you were not my mentor, I would have probably fired you already. Cough…, sorry for that but I’m really going, what’s the big deal?”“You’re really asking me that right now? Of course, there’s a big deal. Apart from military burials, do you know the last time you have for social gatherings?”“I dunno, probably a decade or 2”.“No…, 4 decades! 4 whole decades!

At first, staying together left them feeling awkward but they soon got over it and started reliving the feelings of a few years ago.

Among the 3 Pirate Gods in the Sahara, though none of them never publicly claimed the spot as the strongest, the Black Pirate God was the one most recognized by pirates as the strongest. After him was the powerful Red Goddess Pirate, then the Lilac Pirate God. Compared to the first 2, the Lilac Pirate God was on the more glaringly weaker side but he still had the strength to back his title. At this moment, in the Black God Pirate City, a surprising piece of news was being circulated. Pirate Queen Anamel was dead, and Pirate Queen Cobra was secretly a student of the Red Goddess. Not only that, the most shocking piece of news that took the city by storm was that of Pirate Queen Cobra’s intention to leave the Sahara and settle in normal human settlements outside. … “Is this news verified?” A deep voice asked with suppressed anger in an underground room with far better living conditions than most of the others out there in the desert. “Yes

Though they both wanted to just remain in each other’s embrace forever, Clark and Sonia knew that they were still in a pirate city and what it meant. With reluctance, they quickly left the city with Arthur.Even if they tried to cover it up, it was impossible so they didn’t bother. In minutes, the news of Pirate Queen Anamel’s death spread through the pirate city and beyond.For long, Clark has always been worried about his reaction when he finally saw Sonia again but he was surprised when he did. It was like they never separated; it was like they’ve lived through all these years together.15 minutes later, they got sufficiently far away into the desert from the pirate city so they finally had the time to speak things out.Sonia brought out the stolen pistol first, which Clark handed over to Arthur. After this, she finally started detailing her encounters after Clark asked.According to her, after the fierce battle on her fa

CHAPTER 463: RE-UNION.
While Arthur asked the pirate, Clark already went to work as he closed his eyes to focus. As experienced soldiers, they already put a lot of contingencies in place during their tour around the pirate city.Even if they wanted to catch some fun, it was too unrealistic for them to just keep touring without setting anything in place.With his implant, Clark immediately accessed the hidden cameras that they placed around the city, most especially this bar. It didn’t take him long; he saw a hooded female going out through the bar’s back door.“Found our target”.While muttering to Arthur, Clark already turned to storm out of the bar. Arthur simply knocked the 2 pirates out before storming out also.In seconds, they were out of the bar’s main structure.…A few meters away from the bar, a hooded lady walked through the streets at a leisure pace as she kept a close but alert eye on her surroundings.<

CHAPTER 462: WHERE IS THE PISTOL?
The next day, Clark and Arthur woke up with the intention to remain patient while waiting for their informant to contact them. They didn’t even go into the pirate city, it was too disgusting for them to stay in it. The more Clark felt this way, the more he feared what his girlfriend may have become now. If just a day staying in it could make him this irritated, he just couldn’t imagine what staying here for 4 years could have done. Thinking of this, he felt guilty again. “Why didn’t I come earlier?” Souring his mood with such thoughts, the day moved extremely slowly to him. Perhaps, having noticed his current mood, Arthur didn’t disturb him and opted to go out hunting alone. When he came back, he had a desert antelope with him. Seeing the catch, Clark was left speechless. “Can we finish that?” Arthur wasn’t fazed by his question. “If we can’t finish it today, we’ll just finish it tomorrow or the next. Don’t worry, I have preservation gadgets with me, and besides, your girlfriend
