Neon City, South Ville District, Orion Street, Oliver mansion.
50 minutes after the successful assassination, 2 white cars drove into the street in a leisurely manner. With pop music blazing out of the car’s sound amplifiers, the 2 white cars cruised into the Oliver mansion.
The car in motion had such a carefree vibe to it that it would seem like the least likely car an assassin could escape with, everything about it had the natural charm of rich spoiled brats who spend money lavishly.
As soon as the car drove inside the mansion and the gate was closed, the music was switched off immediately as the 2 cars quickly drove inside the garage.
From there, the assassins alighted and with brisk steps, they quickly navigated their way inside the mansion. After resting their back on the sofas in the large living room, they finally heaved a sigh of relief.
All of them closed their eyes without exception immediately after their backs rested on the sofa a
A few dozen minutes later, Clark cut off the metallic chains that he used to restrain the Radan soldier. After listening to his story and confirming that he didn’t lie, he finally understood the reason why the soldier acted so uneasy.Right now, he didn’t even know if he should cry or laugh. He thought that his life in the Spartan republic as a soldier was filled with thorns enough, but it seems that his experience was basically heaven compared to some soldiers.The soldier didn’t want to devolve any secret to him originally but after using a shameless tactic, it surprisingly worked.Due to Captain Drake’s reaction when he first saw him, he guessed that he was already gaining some fame in this region. And to his surprise, he was right as this soldier recognized him also.When he gave his promise that he would protect him no matter what happened, the soldier finally relented and revealed everything.According to him, as a 2nd
After talking privately with Captain Drake to discuss a few issues, Clark finally left the Oliver mansion with his student in tow. Throughout, the Captain respected his wish and didn’t reveal his identity nor that of his student. The other assassins didn’t seem to care though. Apart from Estela who had a faint inkling of his identity, the others didn’t know but they didn’t show an over-the-top curiosity. They just appreciated the strength that they both displayed in the mission. Thanking them was the best way that they could use to acknowledge their strength. Clark didn’t want to think too much about the assassination mission. Though it was successful, he still didn’t want to think about it as he felt that it would only make him feel bad. Though it was inevitable, the fact that some civilians died because of their actions still left him feeling bad. He suddenly turned to face his student. “Albert, you want a challenge?” Albert turned t
In the capital city of the Radan republic, Arial City, a luxurious blue car cruised through the streets at a leisurely pace. Albert with a new disguise on cheerfully waved at the people in the street as he drove across.Though the press conference where the President used to address the minister of finance’s death left most citizens feeling angered, they quickly got over it as they were already used to such methods.Seeing this rich young man waving at them cheerfully warmed their hearts and they waved back with beautiful smiles.As Albert drove around leisurely, his free hand held a deep scanning device as he thoroughly surveyed all his surroundings for the signs of the building described by Ares.After driving a few kilometers more, when he was getting to the more remote parts of Arial City, he met a military checkpoint.Almost at the same time that he met the checkpoint, his scanner blinked a bright green color, indicating that a match for
“Master, Moana is safe”.“Good, well done”.Clark gave his student a thump up in his mind as he cruised through the streets of South Ville District in Neon City. This news from Albert enlivened his heart so much that he started ruminating about the name given to the city.“Neon, that’s a beautiful name for a city”.As he muttered to himself dreamily, he quickly steered his car into the familiar road of Orion Street. He went through all the high-rise mansions before arriving at his destination, Oliver mansion.He already alerted Captain Drake of his coming back earlier, so as soon as he arrived the huge gate automatically opened for him.He smoothly drove inside with familiarity, made a U-turn before steering in the direction of the garage. After parking the car, he finally came down and went directly inside the mansion.Inside the spacious living room sat Captain Drake, Captain Daniella, and s
Due to the emotional reunion that just took place before him, Clark remembered something and therefore was unable to leave immediately. Seeing him stay, Captain Drake didn’t ask for the reason, he just waited. Seeing that Clark was still not leaving after so long, Ares knew that the powerhouse had something to say so he took the cue immediately. “Moana”. “Yes, dad”. “Please, can you follow this aunty? She’ll lead you to your room”. The girl looked at her father with big puppy eyes. “Daddy, do you want to leave me again?” “No, no, I’ll be there in a moment. I just want to personally thank the uncle that saved you, he’s our friend now”. “Go on, don’t you trust me?” The girl looked at her father, then turned to look at Albert who smiled back at her, before turning to look at her father again. Then, she firmly nodded her head. “Yes, daddy, I trust you”. Without saying anything else, as soon as her dad rubbed
A few dozen minutes later, a group of Radan soldiers armed to the teeth with weapons and various scanning devices finally arrived at the hole which seemed to have been caused by a bomb.“There’s a soldier down there”. One of the soldiers quickly reported.Taking a cue from that, 3 soldiers wore protective vests before cautiously navigating down the hole with focus lights to quickly detect any danger.Entering inside, they saw a thick convergence of smoke. The thickness of the smoke was enough to choke any human but having worn protective vests and masks, they were not affected.With their weapons, they pushed the loose sand apart before quickly going in the direction that was indicated by the scanning device.After pushing a lot of loose sand away, they finally saw the familiar uniform of the Radan army. They quickly started removing the surrounding scorched sand until they saw the soldier who was buried underneath.“
Seeing the message that was on his special communication device, Clark was stunned for a moment before revealing a smile. After weeks since he made this commission, a positive response finally came. This was the project that he had to take a loan from the Spartan army before he could complete. It was the project of a special training chamber made completely out of exotics metal where he could train freely with his mech. Of all his possessions, this was undoubtedly his most expensive. Seeing the smile on his master’s face, a curious Albert came over and easily saw the message reflecting on the communication device. “Oh, it’s done already? That was fast”. “Yeah, I thought it would take a few more weeks before it’ll be done too. This is good though; I love it more this way. Get prepared, we’ll be leaving tomorrow to go check it out”. “Ok”. Albert replied simply before immediately going to his room. Yes, the underground base had ro
At a certain part of the Mediterranean Sea, deep inside the seabed stood an extremely heavy structure that looked like a giant turtle being protected completely by its super tough shells. Though color diminishing measures were used to tone down its color and majesty a bit, this could still not stop its extremely eye-catching surface and body. At this moment, a whooshing sound reverberated and a purple-surfaced mini-submarine suddenly appeared beside the heavy structure. From inside the mini-submarine, Clark stood as he carefully looked at the structure before him with a mixture of excitement and anticipation. After putting the submarine into a hibernating state, Clark came down with his student before they both swam before the structure. Clark already knew the necessary password and everything to unlock it, so he was not left stumped when he saw the training chamber still locked despite him coming within close vicinity. He first went c
6 months ago, the sky turned red which according to world leaders signified the start of the war that would decide the fate of humanity.2 months prior, the news was finally publicized, spreading worldwide panic but with all the most powerful world leaders working together, the panic was easily curbed and order was restored.According to the government, humanity was not hopeless, they had heroes in the form of their soldiers and elite soldiers.Not only that, humanity had a superhero, the great Elite Commander Clark Pendragon. After the special training started, a fuse seemed to have been switched on as the Spartan soldier experienced a period of rapid growth.With veteran Elite Commanders around to guide him and with every resource he needed available, he encountered no bottlenecks, he improved at a superhuman speed never recorded since the human race was born.In just 4 months, he broke through 2 times, going all the way to the Elite-grade rank.
A month later, in the Gen. Clark Pendragon Mansion.At the big balcony attached to the mansion, Clark stood, looking out into the distance as a lot of things went through his mind. The past one month has been the best in his life, and he was grateful for it.Despite it being the best in his life, as a 4th rank high-grade soldier now, his intuition told him that something was happening.As a high-grade soldier and mercenary, things happened everyday around him but he knew that this was not the normal happenings, his intuition told him that this was far higher than anything that he has encountered before.And after making connections from the recent happenings, from his famous marriage ceremony, to the big 5 jointly broadcasting it, a lot of other things and now the Spartan President personally calling for him, he confirmed his guess.Something big was happening, it was just that no one deemed it right to inform him about it yet. As a man
Vatican City Central Church, General Clark Street. This was the church where the big things were happening for today. 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
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.<
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
