600. Dragon’s Wrath
President Igor’s face darkened, and his eyes burned like coals, staring from pits of hell.“How dare you point that gun at me? I am the supreme head of Valheim!” he warned, his voice rumbling like a storm cloud. “Get that gun out of my face if you know what’s good for you, Yosef!”But Yosef Kuroshev’s hand didn’t tremble.“You can have me executed after all this is over. I don’t care about my life. But I won’t let you die in vain. Valheim will crumble to rubble without your guidance. Your safety is my top priority, even if I have to play the villain.”The Chief of Staff observed everything from a distance.And even though it was his duty to protect the President from all threats, he didn’t try to fight Yosef.Instead, he took the defense minister’s side against the President.“Mr. Kuroshev is right, Your Excellency. If you stay out here, you’ll be killed by those missile strikes. And we cannot let any harm come to you.”“You too?” President Igor grumbled through clenched teeth. “Both
599. Operation Holy Trinity!
In the course of the next two hours, the State Troopers took control of Valheim, imposing martial law with an immediate nationwide lockdown.Young, able-bodied men were dragged out of their houses and forcibly shipped off to enlist in the army while the Rapid Response Force dispersed the protesting mobs with water cannons and pellet guns.Valheim was still reeling from the critical hit on its energy infrastructure, but President Igor paid no heed to the complaints of the common citizens.Instead, he chose to deploy all fuel stockpiles and divert all emergency power to the military forts and airbases.The military was mobilized under new commanding officers, with the sole goal of marching on Alexandria and routing their ground forces.Meanwhile, the surviving bombers and fighter jets were refueled and rearmed in preparation for another massive deployment.Under President Igor’s command, the air force, the paratroopers, and the armored regiments were put on battle-ready status.Despite
598. Igor the Indomitable!
At the Chancellor’s Residence, President Igor Vasily was busy signing executive orders to mobilize the military and the air force together and launch a full-scale attack on Alexandria, despite severe opposition from his own ministers’ council.The troops amassing at the military bases and the tanks being mobilized to move out revealed without a shadow of doubt that Valheim wasn’t ready to even think of a ceasefire.As the satellite images exposed the heavy military activity, the Chairman of the Peacekeeping Council opened a direct video conferencing line with the President.“President Vasily, I thought I made myself crystal clear when I spoke to your minister two days ago. But it seems you didn’t get the message.”President Igor stared at the Chairman’s clean white shirt, buttoned under an expensive black suit and scoffed.“You aren’t a soldier. In fact, you never were. So, how about you stop sticking your nose in my affairs and stay the hell away from the battlefield. It doesn’t suit
597. The Enlightened Ones
No matter how the tale unfolded, it all led to the same unknown starting point—the Enlightened Ones.Xander had first heard the name from Priscilla, and now Ashari repeated the same, painting them as the true villains.While it was Valheim and Orichoko who had attacked Zarturia, the ones pulling the strings from the shadows were the Enlightened Ones. And Xander had no idea about any part of their existence save that name.“Who are these Enlightened Ones?” he asked. “Is this some cult or a political faction?”Ashari shook his head.“No, my prince. The Enlightened Ones are not a part of any cult. And while they do control global politics, they do not directly participate in it,” he explained.“Then who and what are they?”Ashari’s eyes flickered with an eerie light as his thoughts went back to the dark recesses of his mind. His face darkened, and his voice fell to a low whisper as he spoke again.“The Enlightened Ones are beings of great power. Some say they are immortal humans who have
596. Royal Lineage
Xander had never heard about the existence of such a place, and what really blew his mind was the technology all around.It was as if he had just stepped into the future and advanced by several decades in the blink of an eye.The surgical bots and assistant drones being used here put even Kronos Tech’s most recent innovations to shame.Xander was only 9 when he was forced to flee Zarturia, and he barely remembered anything about his homeland, save for the people whom he had held dear.“I suppose this place is not exactly in Valheim,” he remarked after glancing around at the white polymer tiles on the floor interlocked with photon webs that hummed with a soft bluish glow.“The Cradle was built under the ruins of the First Civilization,” Ashari replied. “This is the legacy of the Zarturians, my Prince.”Xander’s forehead creased, and he stared confusedly at the soldier dressed in all-white tech.“Why do you keep calling me that? I am no prince, and my sister is no princess.”Ashari bowe
595. Blood of my Blood
Xander opened his eyes to the blurry sight of medical assistant drones buzzing over him as he lay numb on the operating table.The room looked nothing like a hospital, but something straight out of the future.Every wall was divided into sections that contained LED screens, and the ceiling looked like a starless sky with a crescent moon peeking through fleecy gray clouds.Amidst the beeping of the medical devices, Xander heard his sister’s voice floating through like a gentle hum.“It’s going to be okay. I promise I won’t let anything happen to you,” she whispered, performing an incision on Xander’s chest and cutting into his open heart with a laser knife. “That serum has contaminated your blood. The mutations have morphed your heart. I have to remove the infected tissue surgically and replace it with specialized stem cells.”Xander slipped in and out of his senses like a dream replaying in his head over and over again.The only thing that remained constant was his sister’s face gazing
