Chapter 111 : Vegas against Gun

Neutral POV

A few hours after the end of the war against Gun, aka Tiger's Eye, Korn, Kinn, Kim, Tankhun, Porsche, Pete, Vegas, Macau,  Chay, General Kao and Lieutenant Josh gathered in a meeting room. meeting to take stock of the human and material costs  that the war has cost them.

The meeting room is one of the few rooms still intact after the battle.

The faces around the table are serious, marked by fatigue and pain. Korn stands in the center, his stern features showing the  seriousness of the situation. Kinn, Kim, Tankhun, Porsche, Pete, Vegas, Macau, Chay, General Kao, and Lieutenant Josh are  all present, each bearing the marks of combat, wounds, scars, and dark determination.

Korn, speaks in a hoarse, but firm voice.

- My friends, we are here to take stock of what this war against Gun, aka Tiger's Eye, has cost us. Our human losses are heavy.  Kinn, Tankhun, Kim, and I survived, but we lost 70 of our best men. They were more than bodyguards, they were our family, and  their sacrifice will never be forgotten. Just like Chan, they will be entitled to honors in the garden.

Kinn crosses his arms, his gaze somber.

- Now that Gun is in prison in our most secure part and won't be doing anything, we can also focus on how to financially repay the  families of our dead bodyguards. They gave everything to protect us. We must honor their memory but also by protecting their  own families from any threat. Even though the financial aspect will not bring back the lives we lost, it is still something we  can offer.

Vegas is dejected but very relieved that his father has been arrested.

- You all fought admirably well and I am very happy that no one from the main or secondary family died. (Vegas turns to General  Kao.) Thank you for protecting those who matter to me.

General Kao takes Vegas' thanks with pleasure, despite the sadness on his face.

- It was an honor to protect you. Even though 300 of our best mercenaries and allied soldiers lost their lives, they fought bravely  and their sacrifice will not be forgotten. I will ask my colleagues in the Thai army that a medal of honor for courage in combat  be given to them and that they be buried in the best conditions.

Lieutenant Josh sighs:

- Apart from the human losses which number in the hundreds, the material destruction is also considerable. Korn nods.

- The west of the house is partially destroyed, the lounges and meeting rooms are in ruins. My office is badly damaged. The  kitchens are in ashes. The main garden is a battlefield, the exterior walls are riddled with bullets, and our armored vehicles are  nothing more than a pile of scrap metal. But we can repair everything, rebuild everything.

Tankhun, still in shock from the last hours, said:

-This war cost us dearly, but we survived. We have lost men, friends, allies. But we are still standing. We must now think about the  future, how to rebuild, how to protect ourselves again. We must prepare ourselves, because this is not the end. But as long as  we stay united, nothing and no one can bring us down.

The silence falls, heavy and full of meaning. Everyone knows that this meeting is only the beginning of a long process of healing  and reconstruction. But one thing is clear: the main family will not fall. Not today, and not tomorrow.

In the meeting room spared from the destruction, the atmosphere is heavy. Korn, surrounded by Kinn, Porsche, Vegas, and the  others, discusses rebuilding plans. The faces are serious, marked by fatigue and sorrow. Each decision is made carefully, aware  that the battle has left deep scars, both materially and emotionally.
