396 Chapter 395: The first move.
“Miss Lily! I love you!” The crowds were hysterical when they saw Lily coming out of the airport. “Please hold my hand, Lily!” One of the guys tried to reach his hand on her.
Hundreds of people were welcoming Lilith to District 2 since she had a scene to take in a few locations there. She looked at how those people were crying and smiling for her. In her eyes, they were like dogs waiting for her to pet their heads.
It had been a while since Lilith had sex with Mykel. She had been holding it and enduring it for so long that her [Heat] skill started to leak a tiny bit. Everyone around her was aroused and made them head over heels for her like a horny dog.
While Lillith spread her scent and made everyone crazy, a group of people wearing black masks to cover their faces approached her. They pulled out their machine gun and pistols and didn’t hesitate to shoot Lilith’s bodyguards that were protecting her.
The crowds snapped back to reality and realized they were in danger, but those people in black masks didn’t let them leave. They shot those innocent people and bathed them in each other’s blood. Lilith screamed as she tried to run away, but then another group of people came from the other side.
“Protect Miss Lily at all cost!” The bodyguard shouted as he started shooting back. Unfortunately, they were outnumbered, and they were massacred by those masked people.
“Do you know what the fuck you’re doing?!” The bodyguard asked as he tried to crawl to save Lilith from those people’s grasp. “You’re going to regret this!” He continued.
“Fuck off,” The man in a mask said as he pointed his pistol at the bodyguard’s head. He shot the bodyguard’s brain out and then kidnapped Lily into a van while the others emptied their magazines on those innocent people.
The van left the airport and was escorted by dozens of sedans. Everyone didn’t even have the time to care for someone else’s life while their own life was in danger.
“Do you know that this is a branded dress?” Lilith asked as she looked at the guy in the front seat.
“We-we are only following orders,” The guy answered and he was shivering down his spine because he could feel the cold and sharp gaze from behind.
“Haaah… Whatever,” Lilith sighed as she crossed her arms and legs.
(In the Fraternity Association headquarters)
“What do you mean three hundred people died at the airport?!” Gustav shouted, and immediately collapsed to his chair.
“Please calm down, Sir! You need to think about your health,” His assistant checked on Gustav’s condition. “The police are investigating the incident at the moment, and we can only wait for their reports,” she continued.
“How did that happen?” Gustav asked as he breathed heavily.
“There’s a video that went viral on the internet. Apparently, Miss Lily has a schedule today to go on set in one of the locations here. A group of criminals kidnapped her, and she’s the reason why those people died,” the assistant answered.
The assistant’s phone vibrated, and she asked permission to look at her phone. She looked at the message and it was a link to a video. When she opened it, she was shocked and immediately showed it to Gustav.
“Sir, please have a look!” The assistant held her phone toward Gustav.
“Please! Anyone! Help me!” Lillith’s face was being recorded live, and her face was covered in wounds. Her left eye was swollen and she couldn’t open it at all.
Lilith was calling for help, but suddenly she got punched in the face really hard. She was screaming as the person outside the frame kept punching her.
“What’s the reason they’re doing this to her?! This is inhuman!” Gustav asked as he looked away because he couldn’t handle the gruesome.
“Sir…” The assistant walked to the window and looked down at the commotion. “I think we have a problem,” She turned around to look at Gustav.
Gustav stood up and walked to the glass wall. He looked down and people were gathering in front of the headquarters. Those people wanted to ask the Fraternity to take action.
“We are not a civil force or public service who handle crimes! What do they want from us? If they want justice, they’re asking the wrong people,” Gustav said as he walked back to his desk. “You take care of the mess, tell them we aren’t going to do anything,” Gustav sighed as he massaged his nose bridge.
“Yes, sir,” The assistant left hurriedly.
Gustav exhaled deeply as he listened to the commotion on the street. “This isn’t a coincidence,” Gustav said to himself.
Lilith kept screaming, and suddenly she stopped the moment the live streaming stopped. She sighed as she lifted her head and stared at the person next to her.
“I can tell you were enjoying it, Glasya,” Lilith said
“It’s just your imagination,” Glasya giggled as she removed the bloody gloves. She was indeed enjoying it since it was payback from the previous break out. “It has to look real since an ordinary human can’t hurt you,” Glasya removed the ropes on Lillith’s wrists.
pAn,Da-n0v e1 “I’m starting to like this face, so I’ll remember this and pay you back later,” Lilith said as she massaged her left wrist.
“Yeah yeah yeah, whatever. Remember to not heal those wounds. It’s Beldathiel order,” Nefarath said as she closed the laptop. “It’s our job to stir the mass now, let’s go and collect their bodies, Kiersha,” Nefarath left the room with Kiersha following her from behind.
Asmond and his team walked out of the Abaddon Tower, and crowds of people were gathered in front of the tower. One thing that they found it odd was that the people didn’t care about them. They were staring at their own phones as they covered their mouths.
“What’s wrong with them? Did something happen while we were inside?” Arum asked as she helped Glen walk.
“I’ll go and check,” Roxanne said as she walked down the stairs hurriedly.
Roxanne pulled out her phone and covered her mouth when she watched what came on the screen. She hurriedly ran back as she showed her phone to the others.
“Asmond, hundreds of people died this morning,” Roxanne showed the news of the corpses being carried to the ambulance.
Roxanne explained everything she heard from the crowds to Asmond and the others.
“What?! Lily got kidnapped?! How is she?” Rufus asked as he walked to the front.
“You care more about Lily more than the hundreds of innocent lives that died this morning? Are you being serious?” Arum looked at Rufus in disbelief.
“That’s enough, I want you guys to take care of the rest, I’m going back to speak with Gustav,” Asmond said and flew away with wind magic.
(In the Suite)
Mykel watched the news on his own, and then Agnez with the others entered the suite. Their hands were full of items and accessories, and they all had bright and big smiles on their faces.
“Boss! Look what we got!” Gunnar showed a bracelet and a necklace in his hands.
Everyone showed their catches and the artifacts in their hands since on the fiftieth floor had more than one artifact in each room. Those were no longer precious to Mykel because he could have made them on his own with any artifacts and changed their effects.
“What are you watching?” Jeanne asked as she walked into the living room. She saw the news, and her smile disappeared. “That’s…” Jeanne paused because she knew Lily was Lilith, and there was no way she would be easily kidnapped.
Everyone walked into the living room and checked what those two were watching.
“Yes, it’s the plan that I told you guys. The plan to conquer the Earth and this is the first step,” Mykel answered as he pointed at the TV.
“But why you killed innocent people? Hundreds of them?” Jeanne looked at Mykel with a confused look. “You said you won’t get them involved?” Jeanne sounded disappointed.
“What makes you think they’re innocent people?” Mykel raised his eyebrows. “They’re all a member of the demonic sect. I’ll bring them back to life after Nefarath and Kiersha collect their bodies. They’re important assets after all,” Mykel continued as he put his hands in his trousers pockets.
Mykel walked toward Jeanne and gently rubbed her head. “I’m a man of his word. You should know by now, Jeanne,” Mykel removed his hand from her head.
Jeanne looked so relieved and then Gunnar convinced her that Mykel wouldn’t lie to them.
“What’s the next move?” Agnez asked with her arms crossed.
“The next move will be stirring the public. The longer they can’t find Lily, the more they lose their patience and trust. The criminal rates are off the roof there, and it’s only about time before they explode and show their anger and hatred toward the police, the government, and everyone in charge,” Mykel answered as he walked away from the living room while everyone looked at him.
“The problems in District Two to Five have been piling up, and the people are dissatisfied. Since they won’t put their trust in them, where do you think they would go next?” Mykel asked as he looked at all of them.
“The Fraternity Association?” Rozan asked.
“Correct. The Fraternity or Asmond to be precise. They believe he would be able to help, and so they’ll ask for his help to fix all the mess. Of course, that would be impossible, but he has no choice because all eyes are on him, they’re all going to depend on him,” Mykel answered with a smile. “So, what would he do?” Mykel asked.
“Sending Awakeners to do the job?” Sven asked with his eyebrow raised.
“When that happens, it’s time for the princesses to hunt their games. I know some of you don’t want to do it, so I will use the princesses instead,” Mykel answered as he walked to the glass wall. “But, those who want to join them, you’re free to go,” Mykel turned around and smiled as he looked at Lillith.
“When?” Lillith asked.
“You’ll know when,” Mykel answered.
