Chapter 164: Headquarters
My mind was filled with several thoughts when suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulders. I opened my eyes to see that Tanya was looking at .
“We arrived?” I asked her.
She nodded, “We have arrived.”
My gaze drew towards the window to see many big buildings while the plane was descending vertically.
“This is the headquarters?” I murmured while my gaze was fixed on the buildings. I could see many soldiers roaming here and there.
After a while, the plane jerked slightly.
My gaze drew towards all the ladies who stood up and were looking at .
I stood up and nodded at them.
“What happened?” I asked them. I don’t know why they were looking at like this.
Alexandra shook her head while Lily and Tanya made their way towards the door.
As soon as I stepped out of the plane. My eyes were greeted by the sight of soldiers lining up at a distance while an old man in a military dress has his eyes fixed on us, while a slight smile was visible on his face.
I noticed that the man was looking at Alexandra. When I turned around to look at her, she had a complicated expression on her face.
When we approached him, he ca forward and hugged Alexandra.
“How are you?” He asked slowly.
“I am fine. Dad,” Alexandra freed herself from the hug and looked at him.
I was surprised when she called her dad. Is her dad still alive? But then I rembered that power users have a long life.
That man stared at Alexandra for a while before he sighed and looked at .
“You must be Alan, right?”
I nodded but said nothing to him. He was surprised for a mont before he started laughing heartily and patted my shoulders.
“As expected from the candidate for Pri Three. I know everything about you. To be honest, I was surprised when I got to know that you evolved so quickly that too you are a triple power user. We have great expectations from you,”
I was surprised that he had read everything about . My gaze turned to look at Alexandra, who had a lost look in her eyes. I don’t know much about the history of her family. But anyway, she would be the one who provided all of my details to the forces.
“Shall we leave?” He asked Alexandra, who nodded at him.
I could see that many soldiers moved after he signaled them and started walking in a direction and we started following him.
I turned around to look at Alexandra, who was staring at the man.
“What happened?” I asked her.
She shook her head, “Trivial matters.”
My gaze was fixed on her for a while before I made my way towards the exit. It’s her matter. If she doesn’t want to discuss, so be it. I will not force her. Maybe, one day, she would tell without even asking.
My gaze drew towards Tanya, who had lost a look on her face. And as if she felt my gaze, she looked at and smiled.
“My ti has co. I have to go now.”
My brows were raised when I heard her word.
“This soon?” I asked her.
She nodded and sighed. “The situation is a bit out of control. I have to report as soon as possible.”
Her eyes reddened as she looked at and she sighed.
“Take care of yourself.” She looked at one last ti before going in another direction.
I was rooted to the spot while my gaze was fixed on her departing figure. I didn’t know that she would leave this early.
“Take care,” I murmured before making my way towards the exit.
“You don’t have to worry about her. She is one of a king,” Lily’s voice reached my ears.
When I looked at her, she had a slight smile on her face.
I nodded. “It should be fine, right? Anyway, why did you co back to headquarters?”
Her brows were raised. “Why? You don’t want here?”
I shook my head. “I heard that you took a break from forces and wanted to spend so ti in the facility. I even heard that so accidents happened and because of it you don’t want to continue in the frontier,”
She paused for a mont before she sighed. “Yes, I took a break to spend so ti with my family. Too many things happened in the past and I wanted to forget about everything. But now the situation is different.”
“Oh, what happened?” I asked her.
She shook her head. “You would get to know in the future. Anyway, be careful. Not many people would like you. Especially when you are the candidate for Pri Three. Many people would like to harm you in the dark.”
I nodded. “Alexandra already warned about this. Let them co,”
But then, I exited the place to see that the old man was waiting near the car while his gaze was fixed on Alexandra.
“Co, let’s go.” He opened the door and sat inside. And I followed and sat beside Alexandra, who had a cold look on her face.
“Why didn’t you tell before?” The old man asked suddenly, his gaze was fixed on Alexandra.
Alexandra’s gaze was fixed ahead. She didn’t even look at him. “Why should I tell you?”
The man’s brows were raised before he smiled bitterly, “Your mother is waiting for you?”
But Alexandra didn’t look at him. “I told you before and I am telling you now. Don’t try to take advantage of my situation. I don’t want to think anything about you people,”
The old man shook his head before he turned to look at . “How was your journey?”
I was surprised by the fact that this man controlled his emotions very quickly. Alexandra told before that her family was one of the most powerful families on this planet and many of her family mbers were part of the forces.
I nodded, “It was good.”
He stared at before his gaze turned to look at Alexandra, and then he looked at again. He was silent for a mont and then he said.
“To be honest. Your case is really peculiar. No one in the history of this planet grew this fast. Even among the evolved beings, you are showing good potential. I hope you don’t disappoint her.
But Alexandra interrupted in between. She slowly turned to look at the man.
“You don’t have to tell him. I am very confident about him and he is the reason I am back at this place. As for his growth. It has nothing to do with you.”
The man was shocked for a mont before he smiled and looked at .
“You saw? She is as sa as . But I am friendlier than her. Do you want to have a drink with in the evening?”
Before I could respond, Alexandra interjected, “There are a lot of things he needs to learn. I don’t want him to waste his ti,”
I was surprised but nodded. I have to listen to her first. Maybe there are things she doesn’t want to learn.
The man smiled bitterly as he stared ahead. He spoke nothing after that.
All this ti, Lily was seated at the front seat while , Alexandra, and her father, were seated at the back.
When I looked at Alexandra, she had a cold expression on her face. This is the first ti I have seen her like that. Every ti I saw her, she always had a warm smile on her face.
I shook my head and gazed out of the window to see many big buildings and soldiers moving in and out. While many soldiers were guarding the building.
This is the first ti in my life that I have seen this many soldiers in one place. To be honest, this place is enormous. From the ti we started from that place and till now, almost half an hour has been passed but we are only halfway through the destination.
From this, one could understand how vast they have made this place. Previously, Alexandra told that headquarters were situated in the European region.
But this world is very different from the earth. Even though this is also a European region, half of the continent is occupied by the forces and there are very few countries in this region.
Anyway. I don’t care about all these things. What I want is to get stronger as soon as possible. I don’t know, but a foreboding feeling is filling my heart as if sothing bad is going to happen.
And to prevent that, I have to get stronger. I don’t want anyone to control my life because I am weak. Many people in this world are stronger than . But soon, no one in this world could hold a candle against .
One may say that I am getting arrogant. But I know about my power and after getting those mories. I learned a lot of things.
My thoughts broke when suddenly Alexandra’s voice reached my ears.
“We have arrived,”
