CHAPTER 60

　　Zenith's Point Of View

　　It didn't stop me from looking at them to find out who I really was. Good, they know me. I twisted their bodies and pointed both my hands at their necks.

　　"One wrong answer and just a gesture you're done so I'll think about things first before making a gesture," I insisted to them, touching the tip of my fingernail as they swallowed at the same time.

　　"W-What do you want to know?" they asked fearfully.

　　I smiled because of that. "It's not hard to talk to you, good boys. If you answer this with honesty, I'll grant you to leave and tell your master that I'll be hunting all of you to hell. Who ordered you to do it to us? " I responded nicely, in a very low tone.

　　"We don't know, we were just ordered to pay for a billion pesos," said another, I pointed my fingernail at my neck because it was bleeding.

　　"B-Believe me! No … We don't know who he is. We're telling the truth so please let us go …" insisted another who was closing his eyes in fear.

　　"I'm not done yet. How did you get in here? By the time I find out one of you is lying. You can't leave here alive anymore so you answered at once." I listened a little more so they closed their eyes in pain, your blood dripped up to their shoulders.

　　"Someone just gave us information about this place .."

　　"Someone said from inside the secret tunnel to get in here …"

　　They have different answers but there is a connection. The problem is, I know that they are lying … they are still protecting people here inside.

　　"You didn't answer me with honesty. Do you think you can fool me? Tsk!"

　　"Wait—" they didn't finish because I quickly killed them.

　　Even so, they told me everything I would still kill them. That's the real situation when it's like this. People like them should not be spared.

　　They both fell to the ground as blood continued to flow from their necks. I looked at them with trepidation.

　　"Hell, both of you deserved to die." Then they left there to go to Old man, I caught him trembling with fear while hiding in a corner of the store.

　　"Sign …" I call here, looking at 'kin anxiously.

　　I helped him stand up and sat him down properly. "What happened here?" I asked, he looked at me and handed me the one he was holding for cooking.

　　"I-It's okay … they're eating here but when we saw your m-mark of the black bird .. in their clothes, we realized they were foreigners … They .. They forced us to leave peacefully but We don't want to. This is our home so that's it, they've already started doing it. They've already killed three … who tried to fight back." He looked at me anxiously and the fear was obvious in his eyes. "Z-Zenith, I know you have helped us too much … but can you save our town? Please, save Forbidden City …" he pleaded.

　　Even if he doesn't say that we will do that thing. We know that this place is important to them even though it is no longer on the map, even though very few people know this place and like what Tanda said. This is their home so I understand he wants to save where they live.

　　I smiled at him and then looked at him sincerely. "We promise. Forbidden City will still be your home and it will always be. We will not let foreigners destroy it. Stay here."

　　I hid him in a safe place where no one could move him. I will look for Vior to find out what happened to the female captives of the protagonist.

　　I found him surrounded by ten masked men and there was a truck near them, maybe that’s where they put your women.

　　"Let them go! They have nothing to do with it! Don't you have wives? Mother? Sister? Or daughter? What if they did to them what you do to the women you captive today? What would you do, huh? " he remarked but the men remained silent.

　　Unlike the two mask men, they are very different from them. They are all synchronized like robots and have no emotion. Vior I hope you notice that they are not ordinary people.

　　I quietly moved to the back of the truck and saw a group of masked men with black bird marks on their clothes. What does that mean? Why do I feel like I know that but I can't remember?

　　This is not a joke. Whoever has a plan is prepared to start here. I won't be surprised if there are spies inside the Academy and some of them have already entered there.

　　"We want to take over the world and big obstacles are those like you. King Odious will be happy when you get lost in his path," said the masked people around Vior at the same time.

　　Where are your friends now?

　　And who is your King Odious?

　　"Are you Odious? So, I guess I'm right. He's starting to end all of humanity," I heard Vior reply.

　　End humanity? Does Vior know who that is? Wait … I think I'll remember. I remember when Grandpa talked to someone about this thing, Warriors Academy and that Odious seemed to be connected. So, you mean? The man behind that is Vior? Did you talk to Grandpa before in the office and Vior?

　　I'm confused. How did Grandpa meet Vior if he is busy with being the Rank 1 warrior? Then, if he talks to my grandfather secretly about that thing, does that mean he's also a spy? Damn! I do not know.

　　He's not the enemy, right? I know that because I know his character. But what he does back then with Grandpa Zilver is bad for their Academy. Shit! My brain was twisted at the thought.
