Chapter 34
Katulad nang iniutos ni Rumi ay kaagad na nagtungo si Tus sa teleportation gate port. Hindi siya nag-atubili na sundin ang kapatid dahil alam niya ang rason kung bakit doon siya nito pinapapapunta. The reason is simple: the security is high.
Teleportation gates is one of the vital resources of any city. Bukod sa nakukuhang bayad mula sa paggamit nito, ito ang nagsisilbing tulay patungo sa ibang mga bansa. It is very important to secure the routes dahil kung matitigil ang mga transaction nila sa ibang mga bansa ay isa itong malaking pilay sa kanila, not only for trades of good, but also to their tourism and other aspects, lalo na sa bansang katulad ng Idleom na umaasa sa trades para sa pagkain at ibang pangunahing pangangailangan. Bukod doon, ports are the first defense against invasions, lalo na ang mga teleportation gate ports. No wonder every gate ports are heavily guarded, aside from the fact that damaging the gates means incurring high fixing costs. Kahit pa sabihin na maraming engineers sa Idleom kaya mas mura ang service at repair costs kaysa sa ibang lugar, it is still costly fixing gates dahil sa mga materials.
"Kuya, I'm already in front of the port. Should I go inside?"
"No. I already can see you. Stand still for a moment."
Matapos iyong sabihin ni Rumi ay nakaramdam si Tus nang paggaan ng kanyang katawan. And in just a few seconds ay biglang nagbago ang kanyang tanawin. He is on the top of a red roof. From there ay kita niya ang iba pang mga building. Sa tabi niya ay ang kanyang kapatid. But before he can say something ay muli na namang nagbago ang kanyang paligid. They teleported again. It's on an alley this time. Kita niya sa kabilang dulo ang mataong kalsada.
Tus felt Rumi's hand on his shoulder. Sa isang iglap ay nawala ang suot niyang coat at napalitan ng isang panibagong coat na may hood.
"Wear this." Sabi ni Rumi bago inabot ang isang maskara. Tus took it and put it on his head. Nang tingnan niya ang kapatid ay nagpalit na rin ito ng suot na damit at maskara.
"Let's talk later." Simpleng sabi ni Rumi bago naunang maglakad palabas sa eskenita. Tus silently followed him.
Tus was led towards a building 3 blocks away from the location they teleported to. Pumasok sila sa loob at binati ng guard na nagbukas sa kanila ng pinto, followed by the receptionists.
"Give us your most secured room." Sabi ni Rumi.
After paying ay iginiya sila ng babae sa elevator. Ito ang pumindot sa button. They were led to the 99th floor. After opening the room's door ay ibinigay ng babae ang keycard kay Rumi bago nagpaalam.
Rumi and Tus immediately went inside. After they checked the surroundings para masiguradong walang mga recorders o ano pa man ay naupo sila sa sofa sa sala.
"Now, tell me. Who did you infuriate this time?" Seryosong sabi ni Rumi. Rumi can't help but take things seriously. Kanina nang nagtungo ang kapatid sa port ay kaagad siyang nagtungo sa isang bubong kung saan matatanaw niya ang kapatid. Although the skills that he can use are limited dahil sa mga restrictions sa lugar, he is still confident to his abilities and search for the person that was eyeing his brother. But to his surprise ay wala siyang nahanap na maaaring makapagbigay ng panganib sa kapatid. Althought there are a lot of strong individuals on that city that surpass their strength, none of them is the culprit. It means it is someone that's strong enough to hide it's presence against his tracking and detection skills. Dahil doon ay kaagad siyang nagdesisyon na ialis sa lugar ang kapatid. He is not sure kung gagana ba iyon, but that is the only possible thing that time. He choose a costly hotel that specialize against high level awakeners. He just hope that the hotel's security will do it's job.
