The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 107: freedom after 3 years

Sonia did not have much to arrange, she just came back to get some of the essential things that she could not leave behind. As she arranged, her mind could not help but drift again to a frail looking imagination of her mom.

At this age, where medical technology has advanced so enormously, her being called for, clearly indicated how serious her moms situation was. There was no way it was a normal illness, which only brought her more worrying.

What is so serious, that I had to be called for? she questioned herself again, doubtfully.

It didnt take too long before she was finally ready, as she turned around to go. She changed from her old suit into a new suit she got recently, to present herself as fresh.

Not long later, she finally arrived back at the parade ground. She was not surprised to still see the summoned horde of soldiers, all standing at their positions in attention. There was no way these guys would leave their positions, until ordered so by their commander.

As soon as she appeared, one of her brothers personal soldiers advanced forward to take her backpack from her. She fluidly passed it to the soldier, while impatiently going forward to face her brother.

Daniel was about to say something else to the commander, but his words got stuck in his throat, as he felt the glare from his younger sister. During this brief time together, he was already able to break the commanders communication defense, and become familiar with him.

As a businessman, having a sweet tongue to make friends with people of power, is a trait he must have. He already mastered the craft of engaging fluently with others in a conversation, and making it memorable.

Hey, I thought you were waiting for me. Im ready, please can we go now? Sonia finally said, with slight irritation on her tone. The please was only added, as a result of the commander still being there.

Despite them being citizens of the Dakra republic, the prestige of a 5th rank high-grade soldier is not to be undermined.

They were one of the people with the most status in the alliance, as they were below no one, only some other special people had more of a status than them.

And their strength was the real deal, as they were already qualified to be referred to as 1-man armies. 5th rank high-grade soldiers can singlehandedly change the situation of battles, if the opportunity presents itself. Their strength was just that outrageous.

Commander Rashford, its been really nice getting to know you. Please, I have to go now. Maybe, in the future, if we are opportune to meet again, well discuss further. Daniel finally drew their conversation to an end with this.

Oh, theres no need for such formalities, taking care of your mother takes more priority. Its been really nice getting to know you also. Please, extend my regards to your parents. Commander Rashford replied with a smile.

Daniel smiled back, as he firmly shook the outstretched hand of the commander. He finally turned around, to go back to his warship as his sister tightly trailed behind.

Sonia felt the need to visit her team captain and teammates for a last time, to explain things to them. But, she restrained her desire, as she instead sent them an apology message instead through her implant, to explain her circumstances to them.

The 3 warships slowly rose up, as they finally picked up speed again, heading back to the Dakra republic.

Ok, brother, were isolated now. You can now tell me in details, what exactly happened to mother at home? I thought she recently got a better personal doctor? She could no longer suppress her curiosity, as she asked for the circumstances of her mothers illness.

Daniel sighed, as he took a long and deep breath, cleared his throat, before he finally started telling her. Theres trouble back at home,

Boom!! Clark slowly pulled back his spear from the shaking, bloody figure of his opponent, as he turned around to go back after stabbing him for the last time.

Despite the blood all over his body, he walked away confidently without an injury, as the Killer of dragons slowly slumped down dead. The blood all over his body was the result of his trashing of his opponent.

Magician!! Magician!! The spectators stand shook fiercely from the chanting and the shouts, as the winner slowly left the battle arena.

After quickly getting over his last defeat with his team, he was able to return back to his training routine with the help and encouragement of his teammates. Unlike his teammates, he still had a steep challenge to overcome, in his upcoming inevitable showdown with World dominator personally.

Even Arthur discreetly encouraged him by using indirect words and phrasing. Despite this guys strong desire to overtake and win against him in a battle, he genuinely cared about him.

The months they stayed together, was not just for fancy, as theyve grown so familiar with each other. If one of them died suddenly, the impact to the rest would be enormous.

Today was the scheduled day, for the 2nd round of the individual tournament. His opponent was naturally not his match, but he still used the battle as training material, by dragging it out for as long as possible.

He knew the importance of physical battles, that virtual projections could simply not replicate. So, he took advantage of this small opportunity to try improving as much as possible.

Though, he did not notice any drastic change, his strength was still gradually increasing. Proof of his continued improvement was that despite him dragging the battle out for so long, his opponent was unable to inflict a single injury on him.

Pa! pa! He finally came outside to meet his teammates, as he shook the extended hands of both males in his team.

Clark, you continue to wow us every day. Despite the difference not being too drastic, you actually improved again, when we are still struggling in the darkness to locate light Jian Wushaung said with a smile, as he wrapped his hands around his vices shoulders.

Arthur could only clench his fists, while trying to keep his expression neutral. His current feeling, was like you took last position in your class. Youll feel bad for your friend, if you found out he was not able to get his result. As last is better than nothing.

But, youll feel even worse, if you later find out that you were not able to find your friends result, because you checked from the bottom. Knowing your friend actually topped the class, while you took last brings an even more awful feeling.

He was worried for his teammates safety, when he was about to face someone so strong. But, he felt even more bad, when that same teammate continually bested him on every area. He could only secretly comfort himself.

Later during the day, World dominator also fought his battle. His opponent, the Godzilla could not do anything, as he was swiftly beaten to death.

This swift defeat further reinforced his position in everyones heart, as the best gladiator, so far in the tournament.

The next day, was the Roman empire teams battle for the 3rd place position. During the last team battle, the United states team emerged as the winner, so their current opponent was the Red band team.

Their battle was fierce, but it was also largely without any stylish moments nor did any dark horse emerge. As expected, with the advantage from Clark, team Roman empire slowly, but gradually crushed their opponents.

The only thing that prolonged the battle a bit, was that Clarks teammates tried to make the battlefield into a training ground for him. He was frequently left alone to train, by taking on 3 opponents alone.

But, this team was called a powerhouse team for a reason. None of their gladiators were weak, so he was not able to complete a 1 vs 3. But, this still helped his team tremendously, as they quickly snowballed to victory.

Today, was a very memorable day to the team. After years of being in custody of the Roman empire organization, they were finally able to survive and take 3rd place in the tournament.

They used all the money, allocated to them for that month to host a small party to celebrate. It was definitely worth celebrating, as throughout this small phase of their life, they already witnessed countless deaths of similar ranked soldiers.

And, what was more worth celebrating was that. They were captured without their consent, to act as gladiators.

Now, through their strength, they finally fought back their freedom. Not only are they being set free, they were all expecting the rewards for the 3rd place team.

Its just like you fighting for your life, and being rewarded by a stranger for it. It was definitely a good feeling to experience.

They finally exchanged contacts today, as they were practically already free from the custody of the Roman empire organization. At least, when they later go to their various places from here, they could have a stable means to contact each other.

As they did their small celebration, General Turan finally visited them again for the second time. This time, he didnt come alone, he came with his whole entourage of soldiers and subordinates.
