Speeding Up Plans

Chapter 34 Speeding Up Plans

POV Justin

After returning to Washington, I showed the facility around to Nabila and Henry who were impressed with how big the whole place is.

"I'll give you both a few days to adjust, after that, Nabila will report to the garden and start working sharing your farming knowledge and Henry will go to school." I say with a smile on my face. In that, they both nod their heads and enter the room they will share with each other.

"The room has everything you may need." I say also entering the room. "They have a closet full of clothes, a fridge with groceries, two beds, and a bathroom. I hope you are grateful for my hospitality." I say placing my hands behind my back and rocking back on myself.

"Thank you for your hospitality." Nabila stutters rapidly while Henry stands silently staring at the floor.

"Well, contact any of the guards if you have any questions or need anything. Bye~Bye." I say leaving the room and closing the door while a couple of guards remain outside the room.

"I want them to be watched at all times." I order the guards who kneel before me.

"Yes, Your Highness." They both respond quickly.

The next day, I headed to the Pentagon command room where most of the top officers who work for me were waiting for me. At that, I take a seat in front of all of them as I start petting my wolf who has grown quite a bit lately. Possibly due to the experiment I'm doing with it.

I have put 1 drop of my blood in his food daily and have been analyzing the changes, as a result, his growth is faster than that of an ordinary wolf, with sharper fangs and he is extremely loyal to me. I also found out that his bite is not contagious.

"Begin." That's all I say when they start making their reports.

"The expansion within the city is going according to plan, we have recovered a lot of lands so I would like to request more personnel to continue expanding our security zone and establish more surveillance points." Says one of the top brass.

"Agreed, you will have the men you need." I respond quickly. The expansion of the security zone is quite an important project, we cannot have so many people inside the Pentagon at all times, recovering and inhabiting the buildings is important and that in turn brings a flow of points to our finances.

Poor idiots, apartments in the city are expensive and people have to work hard to get one. However, in case of an invasion of the city, the Pentagon will be the safest place of all and the defenses in the city will be the first to fall. That is why my residence is inside the Pentagon.

If anyone wants to get to me, they first have to get through the city's defenses and then fight the full power of the Pentagon. At this point, I'm beginning to believe that the gods gave up after what I did to Wesker.

"The fresh fruits that we brought from the Kingdom are already distributed among the high-class restaurants as you requested." Another person comments. At that, I nod my head. I have ordered to monopolize fresh fruits, only people with enough points will be able to acquire them.

"More refugees continue to arrive in the Empire, we have been separating them according to their knowledge prior to the day of the collapse, the professionals are assigned to their competent areas while those with no experience become workers." One woman comments while I nod.

There are people who simply have higher priority than other people, doctors, engineers, and scientists. This is the class of people who get the most benefits along with security personnel and peacekeepers.

"We have to recruit more soldiers, it is important to increase our number of soldiers." I mention as the others in the room nod their heads.

"Any news from Beta?" I ask while still petting my wolf.

"Still he doesn't find anything." Mike answers. Beta has a very important search mission, he left more than 2 months ago but so far the search has no results. How annoying.

"My men are practically done with the repairs to the White House, however, we still can't get into the bunker." Negan says.

"Once that bunker is closed you can't get in." Mike responds quickly. "We already had this conversation before, you will only spend resources." He says shaking his head at Negan.

"What's inside that Bunker is important." is all I say as I thoughtfully massage my chin.

"Nuclear launch codes won't work!" Mike exclaims in my direction. "When all the chaos started the missile silos were deactivated and abandoned because the entire chain of command disappeared." He says sighing a little.

"Nuclear weapons?" Randall stammers. "Why?" He questions confused with sweat on his face.

"Dissuasion." I say waving my hands dismissively. "No one will mess with us if we have nuclear weapons and let me remind you that outside of Washington there are communities that are much larger than us and that is only in the United States, we do not know the situation in other countries." I mention while making a hand signal for them to change the subject.

"We are still in radio silence according to your orders, we have intercepted some transmissions but we have not given any kind of response unless it is a communication from the Empire." Another person in the room quickly comments.

"Well, I want everything to stay the same for now regarding communications." I say.

"Weapons and supplies." I ask.

"We have enough weapons to equip every man capable of fighting and enough ammunition, we will also start manufacturing ammunition for rifles in a short time, so the ammunition problem is solved. Around the supplies, we also have enough to last a few years, although if the population continues to grow it will last less." Says one of the people in charge of taking inventory.

"We have enough time to solve that, we can create cultivation areas in city parks, on the roof of buildings if necessary. We must preserve the cattle as much as we can, I am sure that the meat will become a luxury in the future. At this, everyone in the room nods their heads.

"I propose that we send out search parties in order to procure livestock and other essential animals." Mike steps in.

"That's a good idea, delegate that task to one of the squads. Negan your men in the outposts in the Sanctuary and in the satellite post they will support in the search for cattle, for each cattle that they manage to capture alive they will be well rewarded." I answer while Negan just nods his head.

"Okay, that's it. Everyone get back to work!" I exclaim getting to my feet and walking out of the room. They will take care of everything they always do.

Days after

I find myself walking through the pentagon facility heading towards the educational zone followed by a group of guards. As I walk people kneel before me or do some kind of bow while the children look at me with sparkles in their eyes. They think I'm some kind of superhero that keeps everyone safe from the terrifying monsters outside.

Who am I to deny it? Before me is the next generation of minions loyal to me and only me, in that, I give some orders to my guards to distribute some sweets to the children. I must reward loyalty.

"Which room is Henry in?" I ask one of my guards.

"It's down this hall, Your Highness." He says as he leads me into the room where Henry is.

Walking into the classroom, I see Henry looking at me with wide eyes as a woman crouches right next to him. Is that woman looking for information regarding the Kingdom? How suspicious.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything." I ask innocently causing her to startle and turn in my direction kneeling before me.

"Your... Highness." She slowly pronounces. "What brings you to this classroom?" She asks with a polite smile on her face.

She... She's Jadis damn. What the hell is she doing here? Is she spying for the CRM? In the TV series she works for the CRM. I must seize this opportunity, if she infiltrated how many more spies are hiding in the shadows? This is troublesome. Then a smile spreads across my face.

"Henry is an important guest for the Empire, I care about his education." I say. "What is your name miss? I don't recall ever seeing her before." I asked tilting my head slightly and placing my hands behind my back.

"Jadis Stokes, the newly hired history teacher." She answers while I nod my head.

"Nabila is waiting for us, Henry." is all I say before I turn around and walk out of the room as Henry starts following me along with my guards.

Minutes later, Mike along with some of his men appear in front of me. "Orders" he asks me.

"Arrest her." I say while Mike quickly nods his head, in that, he starts running towards the classroom with several of his men.

"Looks like I have to advance my plans after all." I whisper as a smile spreads across my face at the sight of Jadis unconscious on Mike's shoulders.

"Let the world listen to us! Let the world know we are here!" I exclaim as I spread my hands theatrically towards the large screen in front of me showing an image of planet earth from space.

"World!... Listen to my voice!"
