102 Epilogue End of Vol. 1 (1/2)

Delta Air Base, Delta City.

SCREECH~

A military aircraft landed on the runway. Some distance away, Senator Patrick Weisz, Sylvan, and Morgan were standing with bouquets in their hands.

A few minutes later, the cargo door at the end of aircraft opened. Patrick and others looked at each other and then walked towards the back of aircraft.

”Welcome to Delta City,” Patrick said as a group of twenty arrived from the aircraft.

The head of the group was a blond-haired man with a spiky haircut. He was wearing a black coat along with dark specs.

”Glad to be finally here,” The man shook his hands with Patrick.

”Sir, welcome to the city,” Morgan said as the man came in front of him for a handshake.

”Morgan, don't be so formal,” The man placed a hand on Morgan's shoulder and said.

”Liam, if you say so,” Morgan said with a smirk, ”I'm glad you finally brought your lazy ass here.”

”Haha, now that's the spirit,” Liam looked at Morgan's worn out face and said, ”Seemed like you didn't get any rest.”

”Yeah,” Morgan said with a sigh, ”The last three weeks have been crazy.”

”Rest assured you would get enough rest now,” Liam then turned towards his team who were bringing out the cargo, ”All arrangements are done so let us start.”

In a residential apartment on the outskirts of Delta City.

”Thanks for the information,” Rufus said on the phone, ”We truly appreciate it.”

”The chief dogs of government have arrived?” A man asked Rufus after the latter has put down the phone.

”Yes,” Rufus glanced over a table where multiple maps of the city were placed, ”We would take our time with the arrangements just like Count Viper told us.”

”Not if we take the help from the sleeper cells,” A woman argued, ”Besides we have help from the son of---”

The woman stopped in between when she felt Rufus' glare on him.

”I was just suggesting,” The woman said in a low voice, ”Prolonging it for months would be disadvantageous for us.”

Rufus thought for a minute and then nodded his head.

”We will go with your suggestion,” Rufus said, ”All government dogs would be occupied so now is a good chance.”

”We should select a good day then,” the woman said.

”Yes,” Rufus agreed, ”But we shouldn't be hasty as well otherwise we would fail.”

The others agreed after a few more security arrangements were discussed to avoid complications.

A few minutes later, Rufus walked to another room where a red suitcase was lying on a bed. A fingerprint scanner was visible on the surface of the suitcase.

Rufus placed his right hand on the scanner and a moment later, a thorn was visible on the lock of the suitcase. He then pressed his index finger on the thorn, and a drop of blood was sucked by the lock.

[[Fingerprint, Heat signature, and DNA verified]] The suitcase opened up.

Rufus took out the cylindrical glass pod filled with blue liquid.

”For liberating the world from oppressors,” Rufus' eyes were filled with conviction, ”For the glory of the Old World.”

Somewhere in the state of Avalon.

Kurtis was standing outside the entrance of a monastery. The gate was in the shape of a golden wheel, or to be precise, in the form of a 'Dharma Chakra' with eight spokes.

Located in a hilly area, the monastery was simple and seemed one with nature as long as one doesn't notice the presence of dozens of antennas at the backdrop.

The monastery spanned for an area of 150 sq. miles with separate buildings for residence and praying rooms.

A group of children was playing in the courtyard while older monks looked over them with happy smiles. All over the mood was joyous in the monastery.

”Rebecca, you would get no chance to find that bastard of yours,” Kurtis thought with an evil grin on his face, ”Shortly he would die.”

Kurtis took out a gold coin from his pocket. The coin has an inscription of a Dharma Chakra just like the gate.

”No! It would be even better to let that bastard live after turning his brain into a vegetable” Kurtis further thought with malice in his eyes, ”Her reactions would be priceless after she finds him.”

He threw the gold coin on the middle of the gate and suddenly a golden light radiated around along with the chimes of a bell.

Within a span of two minutes, a team of five monks arrived at the gate to welcome Kurtis in.

”We are honored to have your presence here,” One of the monks said, ”Please allow us to guide you.”
