IMMEDIATELY I went back to grandmasters office and showed him the paper that I found on Shaud's room a while ago. I know he'll get mad after hearing the news but i never expected him to show a hint of emotion on is face.


His eyebrows crossed for a moment then a smirk formed on his lips. For some reason i understood, it was anger.
We all have been used to people trying to break down our reputation but right now I can feel grandpa's losing patience to them.


Even I will lose patience for those consecutive years they've been targeting Shaud out of all the people in the world. It only began when the issue about Shaud being adopted was released to the public by an anonynous person who probably had a position on the government or just had strong connections to the higher ups, and it was the time where grandpa's position as a mayor was at its peak making the news spreadlike fire.

Its normal for political enemies to find weaknesses and stains of their opponent but what I don't understand is that why are they making a big fuss about Shaud's adoption.


We even heared a fake news that Shaud is literally his daughter from his ex-secretary when the truth is she is the miraculous survivor daughter of the late vice mayor of Metro Voc who died on a burning house when she was merely 3yrs old.


She is just so unfortunate to have only grandparents living in province which are both too old to take care for her so she was sent to the orphanage. Thus, life is still testing her out.

"Get the bait and send out the ally to watch over him. Focus now only on Dasci. " says him. "North consortium is on the move again, so should we." He glared at me for almost a minute, sending chills to my spine.


He raised his index and middle finger like making a peace sign in the air then he turned it upside down and forcefully landed his two fingers on the table making his mug and saucer create a cluttering sound.


Now that's the signal. We are at war.



I bowed down infront of him again and as I looked at him, he is starring fiercely at his own big portrait hanging on the wall across his desk. I speak no more and just leave.

The moment I stepped out of the office, a thought came out.




What's the deal about this guard's death that makes my grandfather so stressed out?




Anyways, its already out of my control so why would I worry about it. I just found myself calling the ally and he picked up immediately.

"Do as planned now." I simply stated and dropped the call.

        ISANG oras at mahigit na akong nagbyabyahe bago ko narating ang lugar na ito at habang papalapit ako sa Taochi Residence na ito, mas napapansin ko ang pagdami ng puno at pagkaunti ng mga bahay.


Huminto ako sa tapat ng gate malapit sa guard house at saka tinanggal ang helmet ko. Huminga ako ng malalalim at nilanghap ang sariwang hangin ng mala-probinsyang lugar na ito.Halos limang bahay lang kasi ang nadaan ko sa loob ng baranggay Balgay at lahat ng ito ay napapagitnaan ng mga puno o kaya ay taniman.


Nakakapagtakang medyo malapit naman ito sa syudad kung saan madaming naglalakihang building at mas madaming tao, ngunit ang baranggay na ito ay parang naabandona.
