Kilo was seething with rage when he finished his piece of plea and threat. He hated being so powerless. He hated this guy who pulled his family into this mess. He hated this world that made him do all the things he did.
Shi Lang saw him and knew that this guy was not lying so he sighed and said, “Kailo, you know that your brother will probably kill himself when you die. Do you want him to get away so easily with the things he has done?”
Kailo shook his head and said, “I wish to have him suffer in agony and live a life filled with regret.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “I propose you a deal. How about I get what I want from him and then leave you with the means to keep him alive, without getting in touch with him? Let him know that you are taking care of him but do not show up in front of him. Let him know how much you hate him. How wonderful is that?”
Kailo looked at the man in front of him and smiled coldly as he said, “I accept.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “You can go out, I need some alone time with him.”
Kailo nodded and with an indifferent face, he walked out of the room. Shi Lang smiled and said, “Now, say what you have for me.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKilo grit his teeth and then with no other options left in front of him, the man sighed and said, “I did all this on the say of the left prime minister. He wished to take over the throne, but the empress was too strong for him to deal with. He planted him in as a distant relative of the empress. She had grown up alone and never had any friends, so she cherished me and I integrated into her life. Then I gained her trust and slowly laid the net.”
Shi Lang nodded and asked, “What about your abilities?”
Kilo was hanging from a hook, so he answered everything honestly, “We are a species of beastmen that is blessed by the goddess of the night and once in a while. Someone in our clan will awaken the abilities. I kept my abilities a secret as my mother did not want others to think of me as a threat. I do not know how, but the left minister, Gilham, found out about me.
That bastard revealed the fact in front of the whole clan and then dragged me here. The clan members boycotted my family and marked them as outcasts. This made Kailo hate me. When I controlled the empress and used her identity to help me resolve these things, the people refused and asked us to leave.
To think that the identity of that bitch was nothing but a joke that could not even make the people think rationally. I decided to avenge all this and formed my own plan to deal with the left minister, the clan head, and the empress. Every fucking jerk that wronged me, I wish for them to die, and just when I have pawns strong enough, you came. Why? Why did you come, you bastard?”
Shi Lang nodded with indifference and asked, “Where is Cara now?”
Kilo suddenly calmed down and then he began to chuckle, “Hahahaha, do you want to know? Hahaha, I will tell you. On a meteor. I left that bitch on an asteroid with seven days of food. My ability will wear off after ten days of no contact, but will that bitch survive? Hahahaha, I wonder what it will be like.”
Just as the words dropped, the door of the room was pushed open and Shi Lang walked inside. Kilo was stunned, he saw two identical men standing in front of him. He did not believe his gaze. The newly entered Shi Lang said with a calm tone, “Thank you for your cooperation, you will be dealt with later.”
Then Shi Lang walked closer to Kilo and kicked him unconscious. His actions were quick, and just as his kick landed, the Shi Lang on his left dispersed in golden particles. It was an illusion formation that Shi Lang had set within the barrier formation.
He had the details of his family Kilo, but, unfortunately, they had already passed away. One day the clan people tried to humiliate Kailo, and enraged, the young fellow killed the person with a sharp stone. The clan head was infuriated, and they set fire to the house where his mother and a little sister lived.
Kilo was probably unaware of this news as OB-One only found it when he hacked into the left minister’s database. OB-One was a smart bot with thinking of his own. Since Shi Lang had asked him to sneak in, he infiltrated through every piece of the computer equipment of the main players of the Empire held.
Shi Lang used that information to trigger the illusion formation and get what he needed. One had to accept that this guy was very good at such tricks. The young general walked out of the room and came to the spaceport, after the information was extracted, he ordered the team to deal with the puppet guards and left to find Cara in the vast space.
He told OB-One to relay the situation to the Ace division. The spaceport was underground and the ships were all launched by a silo. Shi Lang commanded a small ship and left the planet. He used the onboard computer to hack into the satellites and located the asteroids. Arcadia was an aggressive civilization, and they had very few things that could be used as a cover against the spread in space.
They had cleared and extracted all the rocks in the sight, and only a few ones were left floating in the void. Shi Lang located a few of them and made a beeline to search. Kilo said that he left her some supplies, so Shi Lang concluded that Kilo must have left her a remote bunker as well. The girl might still be alive.
Given that he knew her very well, Kilo must not have left her any computers. Otherwise, she would have contacted someone on the outside already. Shi Lang turned on the scanners as he neared the asteroids and after searching through seven asteroids, he was bored and tired. However, he persisted and rushed towards the last asteroid mentioned by the satellite system.
He moved quickly and finally he found the bunker erected on the rock. Shi Lang calmly landed the scoutship on the surface and changed into a combat space suit as he got off the vessel. He walked closer to the bunker but did not go in at the first. He could sense that someone was inside, and the person was vigilant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShi Lang shook his head when he found that the girl inside was gazing at the door with a sharp steel part in her hands. Just one poke and the suit will puncture, losing all the pressure and killing the person. This girl deliberately left the airlock open.
Shi Lang pressed the button on the side, and entered the first door, at this moment, he sensed a projectile flying at him with a high velocity. He reacted and caught the projectile between his fingers. He closed the door and pressed the airlock button. The computer said, “Pressure Stabilized.”
Shi Lang nodded and took off the helmet when he looked at the girl in a space suit with her eyes wide open and with a finger pointed at him. He walked over to her, undid the helmet, and said, “Yes, it is me. Why do you have to meet me on asteroids always?”
Cara did not say anything and hugged him tightly before she started crying and said, “Boohoo, you bastard, what took you so long? Fuck you, Fuck everyone. Boohoo”
She was happy that he came to her rescue but at the same time, she was scared shitless the entire time she was there. She forcefully made herself, lay in a corner, and sleep most of the time to consume energy. She only ate a little to keep her brain stimulated. At this moment she was so scared that she could not even express her emotions properly and started cussing with a mix of emotions.
Shi Lang sighed and patted her back. He could tell that she was weak and probably would not have made it past a few more days. He did not say much, just carried her back to the space vessel, Cara needed medical attention, and quickly at that. The young man piloted the vessel and moved to Arcadia.
He did not go back to the imperial palace, but found a small city, and bought Cara to the hospital. His appearance shocked the people, but Shi Lang took out the identity card of the special advisor to the empress and blocked all the news about him. He told that it was a crucial period and that if the word got out, he will personally kill the people involved.
Cara lay in a medical tube, receiving energy fluids and other medications. At this time. OB-One contacted him and said, “Sire, the left minister is on the move. He is searching for Cara everywhere.”
Shi Lang nodded and said, “Let him come to the door, it will save me a lot of effort. Also, can you look at Commander Silence, and help her with the trauma.”
OB-One gave an affirmative reply and then began to distribute food to the ten of the ace division. The matter was going to end pretty soon.
