51: ”Goodnight Fool”
The assassins’ facial expressions burned with rage. The warlord's unwavering courage was unbelievable.Also, the investigator’s contemptuous giggles had their eyes turned redder. They cursed their ill luck for not having him slaughtered already.The warlord mouthed with no iota of concern in his words:“Hey boys, get on with it already. Time isn't much of a friend, I have other appointments in less than thirty minutes.”He continued with his unfazed taunting, “Who’s coming to get me first with the usual battle screams?”The assassins’ eyes flickered with skepticism as the warlord could predict they'd have resorted to combat yells while attacking him.They frowned at the fact that he was steps ahead of them and had stayed keen in discerning their possible gestures.“I would have pitied you all and had your bones dislocated but that's off the book. I'd ensure none of you step out here still breathing. It's a promise.”The warlord wouldn't afford to have his mission against the cartel co
52: Flood Of Emotions
Meanwhile, in the undisclosed penthouse, the Faithfuls had their fingers crossed with several thoughts swirling through their minds.Phillip and George glued their eyes on the TV and tuned in to Liverpool Family News Headline to see if any broadcast was captured of any ongoing incident.They were more concerned with the identity of the warlord not being compromised and would have preferred if they had gone instead even if anything bad should happen to them.Margaret’s throat dried up with tension; she couldn't afford getting up as the thought of Achilles ran through every part of her being.For her, it was beyond his identity being exposed but more of how she had started feeling about him after Gabrielle's classic words enchanted her mind.They were tempted to call and text the warlord, but Achilles, while en route, informed them not to bother reaching out to him unless he did.Brig. Rachael Beauty had a lot stuck in her heart, she flinched into consciousness as her phone chimed.Othe
53: Trust Me, Dora
Terror consumed Dora, the thoughts of Anthony Jardon crashed her mind ‘cause for her older sister to have stayed mute since she arrived meant all shades of tragedy.Ten minutes ago, the Faithfuls knew Brig. Beauty got a text message notification and assumed it was Achilles'.As much as she would have loved for the message to be from Achilles, coming from Dora had her blood flow tingling in uncertainty about whether she knew Anthony was in some sort of danger.While en route, she kept praying to get a call or text message from the warlord but didn't, which only increased her fear.Lucasmoon Telecommunications street blared with sirens heading towards the southeast route, which got the attention of people in their darting with anxiety.While they were trying to control their emotions as Dora’s heightened voice had gradually attracted the attention of some onlookers. However, words from some passerby filtered into their ears:“Hey, you got an idea what's going on? That's the third ambula
54: Welcome To The Family
Dora strode into the back door without making further fuss. Right there, a hint of past events consumed her, and she gave in to more tears.Apparently, the reason for her tears was different. She remembered the supportive role Brigadier Beauty has played in her life from inception.Both lost their mum at a young age and were left to be nurtured by their father, who saw taking care of them as a burden and was invested in flirting with several women across the city.Brig. Beauty had to make several sacrifices to ensure Dora didn't hit her foot on stones that once struck her.Dora mused as she succumbed to whimpering, ‘How could I have said such hurtful things to her? She's the best big sis anyone could ask for.’Dora had experienced over five fatal heartbreaks from several men, and when shattered, her older sister would always be the shoulder she’d lean on.Even in tight military schedules, Brig. Beauty would always make time to comfort Dora and help her get back to herself.She hated s
55: To Kill A Monkey
The BMW M4 drove inside the penthouse suite. Margaret and others peeked through the window with one wish instilled in their hearts.It's been over an hour since the warlord exited for the rescue mission.However, while Brigadier Beauty was heading to Lucasmoon Telecommunications, she informed Margaret that the text message was from her kid sister.Their hearts swam in uncontained excitement when they caught a glance of Achilles stepping out of the car.Immediately the door creaked open their voices erupted into joyful screams:“The Vehement Warlord: Liverpool Rescuer!”“You went, saw, and conquered!”“When we were worried about your identity being exposed. We hastily forgot that you're the only Vehement Warlord! The Prime Minister's savior!”Achilles’ cheeks brightened with smiles as he nodded at their eulogies. He stared through their voice depths and found no iota of pretence.He'd always be grateful to his late father for creating a group of loyalists before his tragic demise.Achi
56: A Martial Lord?
The news of the gruesome deaths hit the cities of Britain at dawn. Every household in Liverpool woke up with the twist of events that occurred less than eight hours ago.An elegant female reporter from Chantal Anfield News, dressed in corporate attire, stood a few miles from the death incident to inform the world of the latest development.Beside her were over seven eyewitnesses who gave accounts of what happened before the murder occurred, and all of their stories were interrelated.Over ten television media stations arrived at the scene to obtain facts about the incident for proper documentation and broadcasting. Still, amongst all media expertise in Liverpool, Chantal Anfield News over the years has grown to be more accurate and independent in disseminating information.“I’m Sharon Montana and here to detail every information in its raw form.”She started with a presentable outlook, but underneath her composure lay a shocking aura of what had happened.She drew a deep breath to ret
57: Wide-Mouth
“This isn't to say the investigator couldn't have had an actual helper who did the killing, but we shouldn't rule out the possibility that investigator Jardon could have fooled us into believing he had no skilled marital background, only to slaughter three of ours on the street.”The cartel executives darted their eyes at the assassin and nodded at his witty assessment.Victor Escobar had the floor once more, “Thoughtful words, boy. The cartel is in safe hands with great minds like yours.”“The cartel had never failed in any operation till the Prime Minister was rescued. We haven't uncovered the mysteries behind the rescuer then this happened.”He sucked his teeth in displeasure. “I don't give a hoot who that investigator is but I want all eyes on him. What he eats, drinks, his hobbies, love life, and parents. I don't care if he's the greatest brutal fighter of all time. I need all the info about him.”“The sooner we know about him, the faster we begin to unravel the mysteries behind
58: Nice To Finally Meet You
The ticking clock gradually fell into the nightfall in Liverpool. An elderly man in his early sixties walked into a Bentley Flying Spur at the garage.He exhaled with a gasp, yawned while stroking his gray beard. He had just finished a two-hour executive meeting in the Prime Intercontinental Suite, and everything about his facial gestures screamed exhaustion.From the backseat he snapped his right finger and mouthed, his voice barely above a whisper. “Alright, drive me home.”Drawing a deep breath. “I had already informed Mr. Julius that I won't make it to his daughter's twentieth birthday anniversary tonight. I hope he understands.”The personnel on the wheel nodded, which was unusual for his driver to respond non-verbally whenever he talked to him.The elderly man flashed a suspicious stare across the front seat trying to catch a glimmer of who had infiltrated his car.On discovering his driver was unconscious, slid beneath the right front seat— the reality hit him loud and clear.W
59: Who Really Is Lucia?
Mr. Montoya swallowed hard once more. He knew that whoever the strange person was, he must have done his due diligence and tailed him for a while to know he'd be attending a meeting at The Prime Intercontinental Suite.Truly, Achilles had tracked him from the shadows after his last conversation with the Prime Minister when he spilled what prompted the party power tussle.He had been waiting for the right time to have that pending conversation with Mr. Montoya and the time had finally come after Anthony Jardon’s life was almost cut short.Achilles’ cheeks still exude a mysterious beam while waiting for him to respond.A knot formed in Mr. Montoya’s throat as the clock ticked, and more hot sweat kept making waves on his forehead.His head plunged with diverse thoughts on how to handle the unknown man glaring deep into his face.It was looking like Achilles was five steps ahead of him and already had a weird influence over him which he'd use to his advantage.With a cracked voice, he res
60: Lucia Or Amanda?
Achilles moved his tongue for words but halfway zipped back his lips. An impulsive feeling whispered to him to stay silent and pay further attention to Mr. Montoya.Silence crept into their midst with their heart yearning for the right words to spill next.So far Achilles had encountered an unassuming different personality from what he had envisaged after his delicate conversation with the Prime Minister.On the other hand, Mr. Montoya continually glanced through the captured photos tossed by the unknown figure before his face.The clock kept ticking; in less than one hour and thirty minutes, the driver should have awakened.The warlord tactically induced him to unconsciousness by having a grip on his neck, but still drugged him to sleep deeper so he'd have enough private time with him.Mr. Montoya cleared his throat, a signal that he'd have to pour out his mind. His eyes darted with growing confusion as he kept staring at the captured photographs in gripping disbelief.His tongue was
