John sighed before laying his back on his chair, "I don't know if you are pulling a prank on me but," Before he could finish his sentence Drago threw the three bags of money on top of the desk and opened the bags.
"What the heck is this?" John said as he saw the piles of cash in the bag.
"50 million dollars. I want you to launder the money." Major Ivan said.
"Holy crap, you are serious," John said as he looked at the Major in shock.
"Did I say I was not?" Major Ivan said before looking at the money that was in front of him, "You can take ten percent of the money you are going to launder for us." He continued.
But upon hearing this, John shook his head, ", I won't be able to launder all of this. I can only launder a million." He said.
Major Ivan sighed as he looked at the money that was in front of him, "So, what about the rest of the money? What are we supposed to do with that?" He asked.
"I am not the guy to launder this money. But I know a lawyer who can. He might be able to even launder a billion dollars. Here is his card." John said while handing to Major Ivan the other lawyer's business card.
"Thanks. But will you be able to launder one million dollars for now?" Major Ivan asked.
"Yeah, but it will take me about 3 days if I'm lucky, and if you are willing to put in another 10 percent, I can get you $800,000 in your bank account by today." John Dawson said while taking the one million dollar bills and putting them on his desk.
"Sure. The faster we get the money, the better." Major Ivan said before his phone rang.
As he took out his phone and look at who was calling him, he immediately answered it, "Colonel Howard, what happened?" He asked before nodding and putting the phone back in his pocket, "George, you need to follow me now." He said before turning to Drago, "And you, keep the money safe in my house." He continued before walking out office.
George followed the Major and exited the building, "Sir, what happened?" He asked.
"We are being called to the base. It seems that New York City is getting attacked again by monsters. Maybe we can tell the Colonel what has been going on, what do you think?" Major Ivan asked.
"I think that's a good idea, Major," George replied before entering the car.

"Are you seriously expecting me to believe that, Major? The UN? Attacking you and a random soldier? Honestly, listen to yourself and ask yourself if what you are saying makes sense." Colonel Howard said.
Major Ivan sighed, "Colonel, they destroyed my truck, they sent hunters to attack both of us. You of all people know that I am not the type to lie." He stated while pointing his f get toward the Colonel's direction.
The Colonel shook his head as he heard this, "I am not saying that you are lying. What I am saying is that both you and the Corporal have been under tremendous pressure lately, and maybe the both of you have been hallucinating." He said.
The Major then hit the table, "Look, Colonel! I'm in my right mind! Those UN bastards attacked us, and I don't know what has gotten into you, but you've gotta open your eyes and see that they are not who they claim to be." He said before crossing his hands.
"So what?" The Colonel said in a more silent.
The Major couldn't believe what he just heard and got closer to the Colonel, "What?" He asked.
"I said so what? So what if the UN did attack the both of you, what are you gonna do? The military is practically under their command. The President is probably the same. If I send men to defend you against the UN, only God knows what they might do to my family..." He said before sitting down and taking a cigar.
The Major's eyes widened and his heart pumped faster as he heard the words that came out of the Colonel's mouth, "You knew... You bastard, you knew that Lu Bu was trying to kill us... No wonder I didn't get any calls yesterday." He said as his hands started to shake slightly.
The Colonel then lit his cigar and put it in his mouth, puffing it before sighing. He looked at the Major, "I wish I can help you, I do." He said.
The Major's lips quivered, "You are abandoning us, just like you did to me and the other guys in Iran. I trusted you, we trusted you, and you left us to rot! And when we got out by ourselves, you claimed that you were responsible for bringing us back here, when you didn't even lift a finger! And even then, we forgave you! You are always the same traitorous bastard!!" He shouted pushing the table towards the Colonel.
The Colonel's eyes reddened as he stared at the Major, "You would have done the same." He said before throwing away the cigar in the bin.
"But I never did what you did." The Major said as he stood up. "You are a ****ing piece of shit."
"Get out, Major." The Colonel said with his fist tightened up.
The Major exited the door and saw George raising his hands and the other soldiers aiming their guns at George and the Major, "What's going on?" The Major asked angrily.
"You are both under arrest for conspiracy against the UN, and the US military." Another Major said as he walked near Major Ivan.
"You've gotta be shitting me right?" Major Ivan asked as he couldn't believe what he was seeing right now, and suddenly, the voice of Colonel Howard rang in his ears, 'The military is practically under the UN's command.'
Major Ivan then looked at George, "You can fix this right?" He asked.
George nodded and immediately jumped towards a soldier and got shot right in the head.

"Oh, he is Corporal George, I'm sure you have heard of him." Major Ivan said."Of course I have." The General said as he looked at George from the sole of his shoes to the top of his head, "Oh my Lord... This kid is talentless..." He said before shaking his head and sitting down.George smiled awkwardly, feeling disrespected and the General could see it. "And I don't mean it in a bad way. The fact you have killed a powerful monster and become a corporal is amazing. It must mean you have worked hard and gone through a lot. I know a kid who was just like you and I trained him myself, he was talentless, but I pushed him to his limits and eventually he became my best soldier, and on the face of this planet he was an unstoppable machine."

Major Ivan asked as he walked towards George in his white t-shirt."Uhm, I can't sleep," George replied. "And I don't think I will be able to fulfill the mission successfully tomorrow." He said as he looked at his hands, "These hands only know how to work, and kill monsters, ever since the mass-scale invasion, I had to join the army, and I had no time to study. I don't know how to write properly and I am probably a retard when compared to everyone else. Please tell the General, that let me kill the monsters, don't make me do what I don't know."

"That's fine. Just kill him with the string in the bag." Agent Jefferson replied.George laughed it off, thinking that Jefferson was just playing a bad prank on him, "Yeah whatever, now where is the weapon?" He asked."The string is in the briefcase. Just open it." Agent Jefferson replied."The string?" George asked wondering why Jefferson was talking about the string, and as he opened his briefcase, he could see the scanner, a machine built into the briefcase, and a black string."That string is strong. Just kill that guy with the string." Agent Jefferson said seriously as George took the string out of the briefcase."I wasn't expecting you to be serious... I can't kill a guy with a string. I need something like a knife, or better yet, a gun!" George whispered angrily at Agent Jefferson."You'll be fine. You're a soldier anyways, you should be able to fight against a normal guard easily." Agent Jefferson replied treating George's worry as a mere overreaction.George sighed before wal

"So let me explain to you everything, you will be-" George paced back and forth as he spoke, his frustration palpable. "Be pretending to be Senator Dick, I will be going inside to take an identity of a guard before going to Roth Tower to get some information."Agent Jefferson nodded, but George could sense his apprehension. He walked over to the metal cabinet and swung it open, revealing a man bound and gagged inside. "This is Senator Dick and you will be scanning his face to get me a mask which will make me look like him. Look, I don't need any information, and I damn well know that I do not need the string that is in that suitcase, I need a gun."Agent Jefferson hesitated for a moment, eyeing the suitcase in his hand. "Look, the string is pretty strong," he offered.George rolled his eyes. "I need a gun," he said firmly.With a resigned sigh, Agent Jefferson rummaged through the box and retrieved a black Glock.

George had kept to himself inside the truck while the other guards realized he was quiet. But they just guessed it was because they had pointed their gun at him and almost killed him. As they stopped at the gate, he saw the tall tower that was the beacon of technology in the United States; that building alone cost 68 billion dollars. As they passed through the gate, the driver stopped and looked behind, "Mason, this is your stop; they have changed your place to guard the outside." He said before opening the back door. George nodded as he walked out, now slightly panicking from what was happening. He was supposed to go inside to get information, not walk around the gate of Roth tower. As he walked around the gate, he shook his head as he saw the countless amount of cameras that were there. 'I might be able to get away with walking inside the gate and maybe into the tower, but any more than that will get me caught.' And if he did get caught, he would have to solve the problem: the ma

George ran down as fast as he could; his mind couldn't process what had just happened in front of him; as he reached the stairs, he exited the door and saw the clone's body lying on the floor. He then looked away and continued running towards the gate before the guards who were trapped in the building saw him come out of the emergency door. "He's there! Catch him!" One of them shouted as they all ran after him, causing George to look back. But he didn't see any of the guards chasing after him. Instead, he saw the clone standing up as if taking a nap and started running after him at high speed, "Shit! Jefferson, the cyborg son of a ████ is chasing after me!!!" He screamed as he could hear the steps coming closer. "Hold on! Jump to the side!!!" Jefferson shouted. George, who was extremely good at following orders jumped to the side even though he didn't know what it was for.

The Ginjets flew over the vast sea while the soldiers were looking at their sea scanning radar to find any signs of strange movement that might hint at the movement of the submarine. "Any signs?" General Howard asked while pacing back and forth, his mind racing with possibilities of what Jordan might be planning. "Sir, we have contacted the National Reconnaissance Office. They will be checking for any visible signs of the enemy when they go on land, but for now, we don't have any." "Think! There must be some way to find them; if they are using a nuclear-powered submarine, then there must be a way that we can somehow find them through scanning nuclear energy nearby." "Sir, the whole base was filled with nuclear waste… We won't be able to find them… the nuclear waste has been spreaded out.” Howard punched the window, nearly breaking it, and could feel his heart beating with his stomach aching in anxiety; as he looked at his watch, he could see that it was 14:00.

“Sir, we are ready. We are waiting for your orders.” General Howard looked down upon the sea base, “They must be scared… None of them are outside….” “Perhaps they thought that we would be attacking them directly?” One of the strategists responded while looking at the base using her binoculars before seeing a figure in one of the doors. “I see someone peeking at us… It seems that they really think that we will be going for a direct attack.” “Well, that’s for the best then. Destroy them.” He ordered just loud enough for all of them to hear. As the soldiers prepared to drop the heavy explosives on the sea base, the strategist could see the figure that was peeking at them from the sea base, entering and hiding back at the sea base. That figure to be exact, was Major Ivan. “Ivan, so what’s the condition outside?” “Not good. They are going to blow this place up. We should leave right now. We might have only 2 minutes max.” General Jordan sighed in relief as the both of them continued

The Colonel paused before his phone rang. "General Howard?" Another General, who had more badges on his chest, walked towards him as he tried talking. "Wait." Howard pulled out his phone before answering it. His whole stature and persona that fit a strong and harsh leader had changed to a more respectful one, "Yes, sir?" He answered in a very polite tone, a vast difference from the one that he used not long ago. Everyone there stood quiet; they knew who General Howard was talking to. In fact, the news broke out that some unknown entity within the UN had promoted Howard for some unknown reason. And the other 37 Generals who had a position similar to the one he recently had all been demoted to Lower 4 Star General to increase the status and the authority that Howard received.

The pilot pulled back on his controls, ascending the plane to its maximum altitude. "Come on!" the pilot shouted, straining to align the plane directly above the sky. The metal covering the aircraft shook intensely, compressed by the high-speed flight. Seated in the co-pilot's chair, the Major was covered in the blood of the deceased co-pilot, his seatbelt securely fastened. The g-force pulled everyone's skin back, giving them the appearance of aging by four decades. Some even fainted due to the force. The pilot glanced at the fuel gauge, anticipating the low fuel level. With the slow leakage and the maneuvers performed, it was no surprise that their fuel was running low so early. Turning to his left, the pilot checked on the condition of the Major. The Major held onto his seatbelt tightly, struggling to communicate with the pilot through distorted mouth movements, saying, "Wha... ah ... we... asen?"

The sleek military planes descended gracefully, their wings slicing through the air as they touched down upon the rugged expanse of the Texas land base. The pilots then manoeuvred their aircraft, bringing them to a halt, As the dust settled and the engines powered down, the pilot looked towards his co-pilot before seeing a glim of light right behind his head. Before the window behind his co-pilot shattered, a bullet shot through his head, causing his whole body to turn lifeless and drop to the ground. The pilot quickly ducked before taking his microphone," Take cover. We are being attacked!!!" "Not here too?!" The General shouted as he peeked out of the window and could see soldiers hiding and blending into the environment; if it weren't for the light that was reflecting from their scope, he would have never known that they were there.

The commissioner's hand trembled as he heard General Jordan's voice instead of General Damien's. "Sir... Where's General Damien?" Beep... General Jordan abruptly ended the call, leaving the commissioner dumbfounded. He slumped into his chair, scanning the room in search of answers. It was inconceivable that General Jordan's army could have defeated the soldiers under the command of the highly esteemed 5th Star General. They weren't even prepared for a fight. "What the hell happened...?" He glanced at the phone directory once more, searching for another number. He dialled the guard's phone, which he had borrowed. "Colonel Howard... I think General Damien might be dead." The Colonel froze, disbelief etched on his face as he looked at the commissioner, shrouded in darkness. He whispered into the phone, "Is that really you, Commissioner?" "Yeah, it's me. My damn phone broke, so I'm using this one for now. But listen, there's a good chance General Damien is dead."

"You recognized it was me; did you foresee it again?" he asked, a hint of exhaustion in his voice. George nodded, and the Major let out a sigh.

Chapter 48: Fight With Damien Part 3
George stood firmly in front of Damien, his body tense with anticipation. It was the second time he had experienced this day, and he knew exactly what moves Damien would execute. Yet, even armed with this knowledge, George couldn't shake the feeling of inferiority that washed over him. He still felt small, weak, and utterly unaware of the circumstances surrounding him. But George couldn't afford to dwell on these thoughts. Failure was not an option, for if he faltered now, he would be forced to relive the entire day using his time loop abilities. Fatigue weighed on George's mind, though it didn't manifest in his physical form. It was evident in his eyes, which carried the weariness of experiencing the same events twice over. With determination fueling his every move, George launched a punch towards Damien. Yet, just as he predicted, Damien effortlessly sidestepped the attack, evading it as he had done before. Undeterred by his missed punch, George unleashed a rapid series of strike
