Lucky 44

Her eyes traveled around the crash site, she couldn't sense any life but it was better to make sure. So she raised her metal bat and swung it with full power. A wind blade materialized and further cut the debris, but Athena didn't stop with one. She raised her metal bat again and fucking bamboozled the place! The debris turned to small pieces as if it wasn't a flying car but scrap metals. Athena didn't have any mercy to the person who hurt her Lady, everything must go to the right place. 

After a few couples of slashes here and there, Athena stopped and took a deep breath. Then she got closer and inspected the debris, she saw the pool of blood and confirmed that Young Master Chen was dead. His body looked gruesome as his organs were splattered, he received cuts from Athena too. 

Despite seeing the outcome of what she did, Athena didn't feel anything regarding Young Master Chen's death. She was used to killing and seeing dead people was normal for her. In fact, she looked relieved when she saw how Young Master Chen died, he looked horrible even in his death. 

"You are fucking disgusting dead or alive."

She lifted up her metal bat and gave the final judgment. She wouldn't give any peace and make his body chopped like a cattle in a meathouse. 

"No proper burial for you, a rightful end for a person who hurt our Lady."

In a way, Athena is obsessed with Scarlett. The maid smashed the broken skull and…

………
……

"Are you happy now? General Bronal?"

Mark Cudgel smiled as he turned off the screen in front of him. General Bronal was actually there when CEO Mark talked to Chen. When they were talking, General Bronal was releasing a suffocating aura that could cause any person to faint. But CEO Mark is not an ordinary person, he could counter his aura with his own. 

Apparently, they were fighting using their aura for two hours already. They were talking while Chen and Scarlett were fighting against each other, the two fathers were waiting for who was going to win. Sadly, Young Master Chen was defeated and Scarlett Robinson became a 2nd Advanced. 

"Well, I lose the bet. You happy now?"

CEO Mark raised his hands showing that he lost. 

"We didn't have any bet, this is not a game."

Bronal replied as the sofa that he was sitting on was slowly burning, he could even burn this whole room if he wanted to.

"Oh come on, you know it's a bet. You used my son to make your daughter a 2nd Advanced, I should have a reward here you know. How about give me my shares, don't worry I will buy them at the right price."

CEO Mark grinned like a businessman eager to profit. General Bronal's face twitched as he looked at him, his one and only son died yet he didn't feel any remorse nor intention to mourn. He looked normal, Bronal wanted to puke at this father and son relationship. 

"I will not sell the shares… I can use them to slowly choke you."

He honestly said and his tone was serious. From now on, their deal was broken. The contract regarding their two clans was finished.

"Hoh, is that a threat?"

CEO Mark didn't show any weakness, he was smiling like a saint who didn't sin. 

"How about this, just tell me what the Oracle said and we are good."

"….."

"Aside from Scarlett, I know that the Oracle talk about something. That person will never communicate with us if he didn't have a big reason. What did he see?"

Mark's eyes twinkled as he was curious about the legendary man who was part of the generation of Arthur Pendragon and Medusa. The Oracle was the only person they know who lived hundreds of years and was still alive. Mark was intrigued why the Oracle contacted humanity after 18 years, the Oracle was silent the whole two decades.

He was actually frustrated that the Oracle talked to General Bronal instead of him. 

General Bronal remain quiet but he still decided to talk, CEO Mark is a sly and calculative man but he helped humanity through the technologies that his company created. He hated to admit it but even the battle suit he wore whenever he fought against the Aberrants was from the Cudgel Tech. 

"… He didn't exactly tell the date but he said that the Blood Moon is coming. He said he can't pinpoint the exact date because it changes every second."

"… Tell me you are joking. "

Mark stared right into the General's eyes and contorted as he realized that Bronal was serious. 

"This is going to be tough. Did you tell the higher-ups about this?"

General Bronal nodded, he is from the government so his first action was to inform them. 

"Is this the reason why you decided to let Scarlett faced this problem alone? You want her to become stronger so that she won't die just like her mother?"

Bronal didn't answer but CEO Mark already knew his answer just by the expression he was showing. General Bronal looked pissed. 

"I will leave now."

After saying everything, General decided to leave the room. He opened the door and be was escorted by a team of elite soldiers, yet these soldiers were shuddering as they forced their bodies to move. It may look nonsense but the power that General Bronal and CEO Mark released was so strong and almost made them vomit. These two are DemiGod and one step closer to Godhood. 

"Phew, I guess I have to announce that Kim will be my next successor."

CEO Mark leaned on the chair and sighed. The revelation he heard was enough to give him stress. Now, he was serious to make his daughter the next Leader so that she could have the resources and get stronger faster.

"Well, not stronger but clever. She's not a fighter anyway but she's smart. To build a flying car by herself is a great achievement. It's just I don't know why she kept denying everything I sent to her. Except for the Game Center that she inherited from her mother, she didn't ask me for anything."

CEO Mark may be heartless but he knew how to keep and protect the people(tools) around him. And right now, he was interested in his daughter that he didn't meet for a decade.

"I think she's twenty just like what I said earlier." 

He was tapping his table.
