“The President is trying, and we are also trying our best to make sure that his orders are carried out. When his orders are fulfilled, that is when the economy will be better, and people will stop starving”.

“Since the time of the previous President till our current Mr. President, our currency has dropped by approximately 40% and it keeps dropping”.

“Despite this and a lot of other problems, he’s still trying his best to do the needful for the country. Yesterday, he approved another poverty investment bill to help the poor fight the deadly desease of poverty”.

“This and a lot more things have been done; every eye can see that he’s trying, it’s just the economical state of the country that is a barrier.”. The local commissioner took a breath to organize his thoughts.

He suddenly started gesticulating wildly in emphasis to his words. “That’s why I’ve come today again to emphasize the importance of paying your taxes”.

“The Minister of Finance has

    Getting outside the restaurant, Clark quickly did a sweep with his eyes to survey the area before making his decision. In just a look, he quickly deduced that something was wrong.“The assassins are more than 1”.As soon as the ambulance started moving, it was subtle but he saw 2 shadows move after it at almost the same time from the corner of a hidden alley.He originally wanted to go to the building and look for the assassin himself, but knowing that they were more than 1 left him hesitating. These 2 guys could kill the already half-dead commissioner if left alone.He didn’t hesitate for long though; he had no obligations to save the commissioner’s life. He would rather satisfy his curiosity. Turning around, he bolted forward in the direction of the story building where the shot came from.Unlike the deduction of the Radan soldiers, he had a more accurate and precise observation.The assassin who shot the bullet was

    Entering the alley, the first thing that Clark noticed was that the buildings here were old and abandoned. No one was staying in this alley, it looked like a haunted street. Whoosh! He reacted immediately to the sudden change in airflow. Turning his body in a gravity-defying manner, he grabbed the strong legs that suddenly kicked at him before turning again for a back throw. In just this one move, he knew that this was not the same assassin that shot the commissioner who he met a few minutes ago. As soon as he threw the black vested newcomer down, he felt the airflow move strangely again, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw another black vested newcomer coming at him with a flying kick. Clasping his hands together, he easily caught the flying legs, rotated his body before swinging the owner of the legs to the side to join his fellow newcomer. A softer wind sound reverberated this time, then Clark stiffened as he felt something hard

    As soon as all 3 assassins left the vision range of his car, Clark slumped down into his seat and supported his head with his right hand. What he just experienced today still left him lightheaded.When he decided to stalk the assassin, he had no intentions of carrying them away, he just wanted to know their motive for doing it.Assassins were always frowned upon in any society, but after knowing the truth behind the assassination, he didn’t know what to feel at all.He felt pity for the poor civilians who were the helpless party in this struggle, he felt anger towards the governors of the country, and most especially he felt speechless at the ways adopted by the old warrior’s club.He had read of it in the news before, he had seen it on the internet before, but getting to see such a scene, in reality, struck a chord in his heart that he’s been trying to hide.When he just became a soldier, he remembered that his 2 most foremost am

    Clang! A metal door slammed shut as a black car drove inside a barely noticeable basement. Inside the corridor was pitch black, only the dim lights of the car illuminated the surrounding a bit as it drove in. At the front, a circular shape was drawn on the floor, indicating where the car should be parked. As soon as the car got there, it stopped but the engine was not switched off. A dull thudding sound reverberated this time as the circular platform shook a bit before detaching from the other parts of the floor. At a slow speed, it started descending, taking the car with it. As soon as they touched ground again, lights automatically started switching on, bringing the overall outlook of this military-like bunker. A simple but fairly big hall, 2 bathrooms, a reinforced door and walls, a secret exit door, this was everything that was in this bunker. It was not too big; it was just the perfect compact that any secret agent would like. Cla

    A tense atmosphere filled the secret military base as the assassins all maintained stern expressions on their faces. As soon as the level 3 alert was sounded, every one of them became aroused and alert.They didn’t receive much of an explanation from the higher-ups, all that they knew was that an enemy discovered their secret base and would probably try infiltrating.The 2nd deep, as the second biggest secret military base of the old warriors club only behind the 1st deep, had a lot of methods to protect themselves, also to fight battles and hit hard.As soon as the alert was sounded, the 2 guards that monitored the entrance became more alert. 3 of their companions came from inside shortly after to accompany them and make their work more effective.They hid in the shadows, trying every means to hide from every possible angle that an intruder can get in with while their eyes remained trained on the small tunnel-like hole that led inside the base.

    Relishing in the shock on the 4 soldiers’ faces while not letting it show on his face, Clark went closer to the leader’s desk with a constant smile on his face. Getting there, he turned a chair around and sat down calmly. “So, can we talk now?” It took more than a minute before the leader of the military base finally came back to his senses. He looked at Clark blankly for a moment, it took him another minute before he finally recovered his nerves. “You want to speak with me alone?” He asked, his voice suddenly as gentle as that of beautiful princesses depicted in fantasy cartoons. Clark secretly clicked his tongue in amusement on seeing this before he answered with a smile. “I’ll like a private chat with you, but I need your subordinate here to remain with us”. Seeing that he was pointing at Estela, the leader nodded firmly before gesturing for his other 2 subordinates to leave his office. As soon as both subordinates left, he finally had the

    Getting out of the secret military base, Clark revealed a smile of contentment as he embraced the ever-shining sun of Africa that he was just beginning to get used to. Bathing in it always revitalized his soul. As soon as he came out through the small tunnel entrance, he did not have to climb down the way that Estela and her 2 teammates did. All he did was jump and freefall downwards. He followed the waterfall straight down and plunged into the rapidly flowing river with a loud splashing sound accompanying it. He stayed underwater for a few minutes before coming out at the shore. Activating a device that was hidden in his body, the water was smoothly dried from his body. He waited a bit before a blue car started driving in his direction. As soon as the car stopped before him, he entered inside and rested his head against the headrest. “How was it?” Albert asked as soon as his master entered the car. “It was smooth like I expected”.

    The sound of depressurizing air sounded as the hatch of the airplane opened up. After a high-speed long journey of 8 hours, the Radan airline plane finally arrived in the federal republic of Dakran. Just like the other travelers, Clark came down immediately with his student in tow as soon as the plane came to a stop at the airport. Due to the luxurious suits that they both wore, they quickly formed a sharp contrast with the other travelers. The others were decently dressed also, but the difference could be seen at a glance. As Clark walked along the road of the airport, he didn’t reveal any outward expression of amazement but inwardly he was already awed. Perhaps, it was just a show of wealth by the Dakran republic, but the airport scenery was so luxurious that Clark was left gaping. The first thing that became apparent to him was the sheer number of airplanes in the airport. A specialized park was made for the airplanes to stay, making for an

Not only people from all over the Spartan republic, even esteemed guests from foreign high-grade countries came to grace this occasion. Today was the day of Vatican City hero’s marriage ceremony. 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. Not only that,

    “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! You get that?” The old man emphasized by waving his hands vigorously, showing 4 fingers at the powerful soldier.“Suddenly going to a social event after such a long time staying at home, what do you think will be people’s reaction. They may feel that something is happening, they may even panic”.“And just because he’s a 4th rank high-grade soldier does not change anythin

    A day after the reunion with her family, Sonia took permission with her parents before going on the first official date with her boyfriend. It was a date, but they just wanted to spend more time together and close to each other. The few years apart was torment to them, now that they had the opportunity, they wanted to make up for it by all means. At first, staying together left them feeling awkward but they soon got over it and started reliving the feelings of a few years ago. For the destination for their first date, none of them planned for it as they were both individuals who have never interacted with the opposite sex in such fashions before now. As the only daughter of a famous billionaire, other billionaire sons already tried courting her in the past but she simply didn’t find them appealing enough, so she always ignored and avoided them. After just a day of staying with Clark, her brother, and her parents in her childhood home, she now

    CHAPTER 465: IT FEELS NICE TO BE BACK.

    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

    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
