Chapter 232: Great Barricade Bloodbath (1/2)

After getting dropped by Rex and the others, Adhara went inside the UWO headquarters that is filled with federal members wearing a short white hooded cloak with the UWO badge on its chest.

The coat only covers their chests and the clothes underneath it are practically all white.

Adhara's heart is beating fast as she looks around, this is the first time that she will be doing what Rex usually does and it makes her nervous.

She's currently still outside of the UWO headquarter,

Many of the people there look at Adhara weirdly because of her dress.

All of the people here are wearing the UWO uniform, so her sexy dress although added her beauty it's still make her stick out in this place.

Biting her lips, Adhara left the UWO headquarters to restart her try.

After about thirty minutes, she came back wearing a casual shirt and jeans that she bought from a store she found.

The dress that she wear before is in a bag, and she's holding it right now.

Adhara calm her nerves and brave herself and went inside the UWO headquarter office, and this time she didn't stop her steps until she encounter the receptionist's desk.

Before Adhara got dropped by Rex,

Rex explicitly told her to be confident and upfront because she represents him, he also told her that he will take the blame if something were to happen.

Because of that, Adhara puffed her chest up and walks to the receptionist.

”I'm looking for Sir Vargas, I have an appointment with him”, Adhara said with a calm expression.

Hearing this, the receptionist lifts her head up and saw Adhara.

She looks at Adhara's clothes absent-mindedly before Adhara added snapping her out of her daze, ”Tell Sir Vargas that I'm representing Rex Silverstar”

The receptionist then smiles briefly, ”And may I ask who you are?”

”Adhara Alpenore”, Adhara replied.

After that, the receptionist taps the hologram computer in front of her a couple of times before she started talking through an earpiece on her ear.

From her polite tone, it's certain that the person on the other side is Vargas.

”Please follow me”, the receptionist said after talking to Vargas.

Adhara got brought onto the ninth floor, and the receptionist guided her until they both stopped in front of a door with Vargas' name on it.

”President Vargas is waiting inside”, the receptionist said before she excuse herself.

Adhara stands in front of the door trying to calm her heavy breathing, the immense aura that comes from multiple doors on this floor is suffocating.

It's not direct, but her instincts can tell that everyone on this floor is overwhelmingly strong.

Knock! Knock!

After knocking two times, Adhara braces herself and opens the door.

Upon entering the room, Adhara's eyes instantly landed on Vargas' who is sitting behind his desk while gazing at her.

Adhara doesn't know why, but Vargas looks more gallant behind his desk.

Vargas' office is dominated by black and brown color, it's quite spacious that the office even has a sofa to attend guests.

The night view from the ninth floor is hanging behind Vargas' seat, and it's beautiful.

”Adhara?”, Vargas said in surprise as he saw Adhara come inside his room.

Hearing Vargas' gruff voice, Adhara's attention got pulled towards Vargas who is sitting in his seat while looking at her.

He then continue, ”I thought I will be meeting with Rex”

”Rex wanted to be the one to come here but something came up, I will be the one substituting him for this meeting”, Adhara replied politely.

After she said that, Vargas stands up from his seat and signal to seat on the sofa.

Both of them sat on the sofa,

Adhara sat on the brown long sofa on the side, while Vargas sat on a single sofa that is facing the same way as his desk is facing.

”I can see that this matter is important, so you can tell me straight away”, Vargas said.

But instead of going straight to the matter, Adhara replied, ”This is a very important matter, and that is why Rex asks you to treat me as if you're treating him”

Hearing this, Vargas' expression turns serious.

All of the information Rex provided has been accurate all this while, and what Rex is trying to say is to treat Adhara with the same seriousness.

”I'm listening”, Vargas' replied as he leans back.

Under Vargas' gaze, Adhara's heart kept beating like crazy because of the pressure.

No matter how hard she tries to find an easy way to open the topic, the topic just can't be soothed into it so she just needs to be direct.

Adhara looks at Vargas and finds a blue aura coming out of him.

The aura is not an elemental aura or any other, but it's his emotional aura that only she can see.

After nodding her head, ”We want to propose you a proposal”, Adhara said.

Vargas' frown upon hearing this before Adhara continues, ”We want to propose a temporary truce between the UWO and the SCO to get rid of the strongholds”

Hearing this, Vargas immediately stands up in anger.

Adhara can see the subtle blue energy turning reddish signing his anger, ”What is this?! How dare you bring up such profanity to my office!”, shouted Vargas in anger.

This caught Adhara off guard but she still kept her calm expression.

”Even if I were to agree to this Sebrof will not agree, and the damned SCO will definitely refuse this too”, Vargas added glaring at Adhara.

Adhara then reply calmly, ”We already got the SCO's agreement, that is why we're here”

”What?! How did you get their agreement? Don't tell me...”, Vargas gasps as he looks at Adhara, he's starting to get suspicious of her.

Feeling the situation will get out of hand, Adhara then said, ”The news about the Supernatural Strongholds spread faster than the wind, and Rex met with an SCO member in Beah City and they proposed this deal”

”No matter how bad the SCO is, they're still on humanity's side and willing to fight against the Supernatural”, Adhara added.

Vargas sat back down on his seat after hearing this,

He massage his forehead in thought while Adhara waits for his answer, it went on for a few minutes before Vargas lifts his head up.

”Look at that painting”, Vargas said while pointing at a painting behind Adhara.

Adhara glance to her back and saw a painting hanging on the wall,

Because of her nervousness upon entering the room, she doesn't see this painting at first but now that she looks at it the painting is very beautiful.
