151: The First Door
The chairman of Eastbridge Infrastructure adjusted his tie as he stepped out of his luxury car. He smiled confidently at the employees waiting outside the company's headquarters. "Good morning, everyone." The greeting was answered with polite applause. It looked like another successful day. Then, three black government vehicles rolled into the parking lot. The applause slowly halted Several investigators stepped out. The lead officer calmly displayed his identification. "Mr. Roland Pierce?" The chairman frowned. "Yes. We have a warrant to examine your financial records." Roland laughed lightly. "There must be some mistake." The lead investigator's expression did not change. "We'll determine that after the investigation." Employees silently watched as boxes of documents and com

152: The Man Behind The Chessboard
The fire crackled quietly inside the secluded mountain cabin. A document after another disappeared into the flames. The man feeding the fire did not look away. Every page that burned carried the same black emblem. [The Arbiter's insignia] His hands were firm, but his breathing wasn't. A secure satellite phone on the table suddenly vibrated. He answered immediately. There was no greeting or introduction. Only silence! Then a cold voice finally spoke. "You sent the chess piece." The man's eyes narrowed. "I had no choice." "You made one." The voice continued. "You've forgotten the first rule." The man slowly looked toward the burning fireplace. "I haven't forgotten. I've simply remembered another one." Without waiting for another reply, he crushed the phone u

153: Ghost Of Blackstone
The abandoned grounds of Blackstone Military Hospital had long been forgotten. Broken walls disappeared beneath creeping vines, and cracked pathways were covered with wild grass. Only one place remained untouched: A small stone memorial. An elderly groundskeeper placed fresh white lilies before it. He bowed his head. "Another year and still no one came back." A calm voice answered behind him. "Someone did." The old man slowly turned. A young man was several meters away, his hands tucked into the pockets of his dark coat. His eyes never left the memorial. "You knew this place?" the groundskeeper asked. Asher nodded once. "My father." The old man's expression softened. "So someone finally came looking for the truth." Nathan, Marcus, Arthur, Lucas, and Samuel arrived moments later.

154: Hunter Becomes The Bait Part 1
The rifle did not shake. Even after nearly six hours hidden under layers of camouflage on a rocky hillside watching the abandoned Blackstone Military Hospital, the sniper remained in an observational mood. His breathing was slow and professional. Through the scope, he replayed every movement Asher had made earlier that afternoon. Nothing seemed unusual. The search, underground chamber, photograph, team's departure. Everything had gone according to plan. Satisfied, he packed away the rifle and descended into a concealed bunker carved into the mountainside. A steel door slid open after a retinal scan. Inside, several large monitors displayed encrypted military feeds. Without removing his gloves, he activated a secured communication terminal. The screen remained black; only a distorted voice emerged. "Report." "The target recovered the photo

155: Hunter Becomes The Bait Part 2
Nathan remained in the conference room long after everyone else had left. The rare-earth acquisition story had spread faster than expected. Every major financial outlet was discussing Asterion's "next strategic expansion." Samuel quietly entered with a tablet. "Our bait is working." Nathan looked up. "How many took it?" Samuel displayed several reports. "Seven investment firms, three overseas funds. And..." He let out a knowing smirk. "Aurora Holdings." Nathan couldn't help laughing. "They're chasing smoke." Asher, who had been standing silently by the window, finally spoke. “Well, they're chasing fear." Everyone turned toward him. "As long as they believe they understand my next move, they'll stop asking why they know what I'd do next. It's common with human psychology." Marcus slowly nodde

156: The Keeper Of Zero
The Greyford Railway Station had not welcomed a passenger in almost thirty years. Its rusted platforms were swallowed by weeds. Broken clocks were stuck at the exact minute the station had been shut down. Today, however, it was alive again. Not with travelers, but with demolition workers. Heavy machinery rumbled outside while crews emptied old storage rooms before the building was scheduled to disappear forever. "Check every locker," the foreman shouted. "We're clearing everything before noon." One by one, the lockers were forced open. Most contained nothing but rotten newspapers, broken suitcases, and forgotten memories. Until they reached Locker Seventeen. The padlock looked newer than the others. One worker struck it twice with a hammer. It didn't move. Another brought over a cutting torch, just as the flame was about to touch the meta

157: Rooftop Aftermath
The cold midnight wind swept across the jagged concrete edge of the downtown skyscraper with the faint, metallic scent of ozone and gunsmoke. Asher River was completely confident, his dark trench coat whipping violently against his broad shoulders. His piercing gaze remained fixed on the empty shadow across the rooftop where a sniper had been positioned only a heartbeat ago. The sniper was already gone, swallowed by the darkness of the urban sprawl, but they had left something behind. Positioned on a raised ventilation unit was a small, blinking device. It was a military-grade encrypted telemetry beacon, pulsing with a faint blue light that cut through the gloom. Asher did not rush. He walked forward slowly, his heavy boots echoing against the concrete, and picked up the device with steady fingers. He knew this signature. Last Updated : 2026-09-22Read more

158: Serena's Discovery
The digital silence in the executive office felt heavier than physical weight. Serena Bennett was motionless in her high-backed chair, her gaze fixed entirely upon the illuminated screen before her. The glowing text displayed detailed transaction records, corporate wire receipts, and internal legal memos that had remained buried under layers of encrypted subfolders for months. To anyone else outside the inner circle of the Bennett Group, the company appeared stable, powerful, and comfortably anchored at the top of the Capital corporate ladder. However, numbers did not lie, and audit trails could not be rewritten by sweet words or family loyalty. Serena clicked on yet another folder, her fingers steady despite the cold fury building inside her chest. Another set of documents laid bare an ugly, undeniable reality. Again, her mother, Elaine

159: Felix's Delusion
The executive boardroom of Aurora Holdings reeked of stale coffee, expensive cologne, and panic. The high-end chairs, once filled with arrogant executives who believed they ruled the Capital financial district, were now mostly empty or occupied by broken men staring blankly at the tables. Felix Hayden was at the head of the conference table, his suit jacket rumpled, his hair unbrushed, and his eyes bloodshot from days of sleepless terror. He struck his palm down hard against the wood, the sharp sound echoing off the glass walls and making the remaining board members flinch. "What do you mean we are out of capital?" Felix shouted, his voice cracking slightly under the strain of mounting desperation. "We are Aurora Holdings. We control logistics networks and media syndicates across three states. I want every remaining reserve fund mobilized right now. The chairman won't be about th

160: The Vault Door
The subterranean air under Greyford Station was filled with the scent of ancient dust, cold stone, and forgotten history. It was a place hidden from the city above, shielded by layers of reinforced concrete and forgotten rail lines that had not seen a passenger train in decades. Asher River walked steadily down the damp concrete corridor, his footsteps echoing softly in the quiet darkness. Behind him walked Samuel, holding a heavy metal equipment case containing advanced diagnostic tools, and Commander Ellis, his tactical flashlight cutting sharp beams through the gloom. They stopped in front of Locker Seventeen. The metal locker door remained slightly ajar, bearing the silent memory of the brass key Asher had recovered after his rooftop challenge. Asher reached into his coat pocket and pulled out the small, gleaming brass key. It felt he
