The meeting with the Vipers pushed through.Just as he’s been ordered, Bernard made contact with the organization and, without encountering any sort of problem, was able to get the meeting – that same day. The day that Bernard set it up is also the day that Christian has to deal with the Vipers. This in itself is sketchy and dangerous. Yet Christian told Bernard that they will continue with the meeting nonetheless. Not only that but, Christian even instructed Bernard that it is only the two of them that’d go and that, he has already notified his father about the dealings that’d be done. This explains that blood that’s coming out of Christian’s lips. A sign that he’s probably been slapped. Something proven further by the fact that the left cheek of the teen is swelling red.Nevertheless, the composure of Christian remained the same and this is a sign that Bernard cannot force his master to cancel the plans anymore. If Christian has already put in this much effort, then he is in no pos
When the meeting with Christian ended, Snake went to another secured location. Meeting up with another client who, has been waiting for him to come back from the first one. An employer who is also connected to the first one – Christian’s father, Alexander Astley.“How did it go?” Alexander asked as soon as Snake got inside range.A bit strange, considering the fact that Snake went into the trouble of hiding his presence. Yet that doesn’t seem to work. Not against someone like Alex that is.“You should’ve at least pretended that you didn’t sense me. I would’ve appreciated that.”“That’s impossible considering you’re within my range.” Alex replied, his eyes glued on to the newspaper that he’s reading. This made his feat of sensing Snake even more incredible. Even Desmond himself will have trouble tracing Snake after all. That’s how good the leader of the Vipers are in terms of stealth.“Please, that range of yours is too large.” Snake said, sitting at the chair opposite to Alexander. T
The plan that Daemon set will take place in a span of a week. This is the same as the initial plan that he made and, the reason for this is the same as the first one. It is to make sure that their movements are as carefully as possible.If there is too little time them some steps would be skipped, leading to a higher vulnerability and chance of being found out. Hence, he gave his allies enough time to prepare. But that doesn’t mean that they stopped moving because, that cannot be further from the truth.With the events that will inevitably lead to the demise of Damian and his goons, the things that Daemon did are simple. He continued feeding the media with information. Those that are found out along the way and, those that have been prepared to sabotage Damian.The days are heavy and almost unbearable because of the amount of work. The only reason why Daemon is able to survive is because he has Cypher and Bellatrix backing him up. That being said, he still blacked out after a couple o
“Hey.” Is the first word that came out of Bellatrix’s lips as she saw Daemon.Her brows furrowed and her eyes squinted as her eyes remained on Daemon. As if there is something there that shouldn’t be. And, not being known as someone who holds herself back, she asked a question. “Did you even sleep?”Daemon can understand the sentiment. It is the first class in the morning and, he did get some sleep unlike what Bellatrix is suggesting. But the thing is that it isn’t restful at all. Not one bit. After all, he had to deal with the creature that the three demon lords brought upon his own dream. Invading it and making Daemon experience something that he’d rather not have.“Of course I did.” Is Daemon’s sincere answer. “A healthy brain is important if I want to continue destroying the Academy.”He has dark circles around his eyes and his face is paler than usual. But other than these things, his physique still looks the same. It is still brimming with life and health.“Yeah well, you don’t
The room of the headmaster of the Academy is the same as Daemon remembers. The first time they went there, it is to talk with Evon and, during that time, he has Desmond with him. But now he is all alone which is probably the reason why the air in that room felt a lot different than what it should be.The headmaster gave a sharp stare to Daemon. One that is far different from what should be expected from this person. There is cause for this of course. If Daemon’s found out and all his actions are brought to light, then the headmaster has every right to make him feel all of this animosity and threat. But that hasn’t happened yet and Daemon has a clean slate as far as he is concerned. That is probably why he already knows that this is nothing more than a bluff. One that’s being done to force the truth out of him. Unfortunately for the headmaster though, a tactic like this won’t ever work.“It has been a while hasn’t it?” The headmaster began. “You haven’t seem to have changed even though
The first thing that Daemon did as soon as he finished his conversation with the headmaster is to schedule a meeting with Yvonne Summers. He didn’t do this with everyone being able to notice. Instead, he texted her. He used the private line that only he and Yvonne has access to. This is something that Daemon did in order to make sure that he can reach the student council president whenever he wants while also making sure that he doesn’t get noticed.That being said, the line is also accessed by Cypher. The reason for this is because Cypher has real access to how the line can be destroyed. He’s also the one monitoring if this same line is being tampered. And as far as he’s concerned, neither is the case yet. Making it safe for Daemon to use which he did – contacting Yvonne once again to make them meet in the school’s rooftop.“Did we really have to meet here?” Yvonne asked. “The student council room would’ve been a lot better.”Daemon didn’t give any sort of reply. He simply allowed Yv
The five members of the Viper Gang that have been sent to the Academy are by no means weak. With the target being the same person that took down forty one of their members in their own territory with all advantages also being theirs, it would be unwise to just bring anyone for this. Hence, these five can be said to be elite fighters. Ones that are still young but are already good in what they’re doing – though not all of them are expert fighters.There is someone in charge of the tech and surveillance. There is someone in charge of being a lookout and placing as many traps and lures as possible. Then there is another who’s good in squeezing out information. Lastly, there are two capable fighters. Ones who are above the level of Leon whom Daemon couldn’t have beaten if not for his [Berserk State]. In fact, even if Daemon does fight these two in the same state, he wouldn’t win. Not by any chance no matter how hard he tries. That is the level of gap that exists between them.That being s
The air in the room shifted right away. Derek and Lee both stood from their chairs and the expression on the other three members’ faces are left frozen for a while. As if they’ve been paralyzed all of a sudden. Nobody can blame them. After all, this is a turn of events that nobody expected.They are just talking about the person they’d kill. They’re planning how this’ll be executed while deciding to get more intel. And now, that very same target appeared on their doorsteps. As if knowing that it is he that they’re talking about. Derek’s mind raced on why this is so but, before he can arrive at anything sensible, Lee suddenly spoke.“Hahahaha! Seems like somebody wants to die early!”Lee is the first to get up and be roused by what’s happening, as to be expected. The timing of Daemon’s appearance can’t be any worse. Lee is still in a good mood to fight and, the appearance of Daemon just fueled this fire further. In fact, Lee isn’t even hiding this intent of his anymore. The fullness of
