Chapter 23: The Escape Plan (Part 2)

The Veliz Corp. A building that stands tall and mighty. TVC (The Veliz Corp.) is one of the leading Jindeka manufacturers in West Ahris. Founded back in 1869 by Savon Histam Veliz. Passed down from father to son, the company is now owned by Valinques Alen Veliz. The Father of The Commander and Briotami.

Onreifni: Good day, I would like to speak to Mr. Veliz.

Receptionist: Mr. Veliz only takes appointments.

Onreifni: Okay? Can you set up a meeting for me, please?

Receptionist: Appointments are made at least 6 months in advance. What is this meeting regarding?

Onreifni was at TVC trying to get in touch with Mr. Veliz but it was no good. He was a very busy man and did not have time for whatever ridiculous plan Onreifni was scheming. Just when he was about to get kicked out of the building for "disturbing the peace" Mr. Veliz walked into the building. Was this all planned or just a lucky coincidence? It didn't matter. Onreifni acted quickly and tugged on Mr. Veliz's suit.

Mr. Veliz: What is the meaning of this? Who let this commoner into the building? Get him out of my sight immediately.

Onreifni: No wait. You do not understand. I am here because-

Security: Enough! Escort him out now.

Onreifni: A duel! I challenge you to a duel!

In the heat of the things Onreifni just shouted out the first thing that came to mind. Such an absurd request caught Mr. Veliz's attention. They made eye contact and that was enough for him to agree to the duel. Onreifni was escorted to the top floor where there was an enormous training room. Why would Mr. Veliz accept a foolish challenge, he definitely had work and meetings to attend to, so why waste his time on a nobody?

Mr. Veliz: What is that you want?

Onreifni: I will keep it short and simple because I know you are a very busy individual. If I win the duel, you will sit down and hear what I have to tell you.

Mr. Veliz: And if you lose?

Onreifni: You can kick me out and do whatever you want with me. I do not care. I just want a chance to talk to you.

Mr. Veliz: *thinks deep* Son. Are you in a Guild or Clan?

Onreifni: No sir. I'm actually in a Team.

Mr. Veliz: A team? And what team would that be?

Onreifni: Team C-24.

Mr. Veliz had a cold serious attitude until now. The last statement put a small smile on his face. "Perfect! If you lose then you resign from Team C-24!" Things escalated quickly, what was Onreifni supposed to say? Should he decline and miss the opportunity to have the conversation. Or should he risk it all, all his friends and teammates he made since he arrived on this planet? Onreifni took out his Jindeka and agreed to the duel with a wide smile of confidence.

Jessachi: Are you sure this is going to work?

Ycka: Well this is the best I got. Unless anyone else has a better idea?

Briotami: We have the truck. Let's use that as a diversion. Glorisa you stay here and provide support ok?

Glorisa: B-but I want to go help rescue Onreifni.

Briotami: I know you do, which is why I need you to stay. You can't let your emotions get in the way.

This statement hurt Glorisa's feelings. It made her feel like a liability but she had no other choice but to stay. They also needed a lookout just in case anything went wrong.
