Chapter 15
Contrary to Khronos’ prediction, it didn’t even take two weeks. The simulation room was a lot easier to handle as compared to Nash’s unconventional training methods. After the second day of my rehabilitation, the devil himself decided to join the fray of simulated chaos. Khronos was the devil’s advocate with the improved simulation system. He made new training gears that simulated the actual pain of getting hit by homing lasers.
Between dodging the devil’s close combat and deflecting homing lasers with Khronos’ new prototype defence mechanism, I had no choice but to transcend and evolve past physical limitations. Although I was nowhere close to the inhuman physical capabilities or composition of either man, I could at least dodge and deflect homing lasers with ease.
Neither of my trainers allowed me to leave the premises unti

The door flung open harshly. A very haggard brunet entered followed closely by an exhausted-looking maroon head.“Sorry, we’re late! It really wasn’t easy. Work had been piling non-stop with the new construction proposal on the way.”Khronos wasn’t looking any better than them and Nash was in deep thoughts. I nodded at the newcomers and waited for everyone to settle before launching into details of my discovery.“It wasn’t for efficiency but for longevity? What the blizzards? That’s not evil anymore, it’s plain selfishness!”Ignacio had to placate his near hyperventilating friend but nobody could disagree with Rush. Nash, in particular, cracked his knuckles to show how much he agreed.

Terminated. Again.Slamming down the keyboard in frustration, I let out a low moan. Khronos glanced over and patted me on the shoulder with wise understanding eyes.“We don’t have a choice now. Rion erased the digital archives of all these people. I’m sure Spencer isn’t even aware of it. Knowing how careful my guardian is, there must be some physical copies lying around in his office.”Well, Spencer was the paranoid type with old school tendencies. There was no doubt about the existence of hard copies but the problem was searching for them. Personally, the office was the only place I refused to enter as the Night Walker even if it was to drive Spencer bonkers.Khronos grinned and wished me luck. I died a little inside.

How did I end up having Pantiumite tea with the man I was supposed to murder?The couch was slightly worn but warm and comfortable to sit in. The humming host insisted on making some tea despite his unusual house guest. Janon looked relaxed, his smile unforced although there was something heavy in his eyes that had me palming the hidden dagger.“It’s really nice to be paid a visit. I can’t remember the last time I had visitors. Your name is…?”“Night Walker.”Janon shook his head and sighed while placing a cup of Pantiumite tea in front of me. I didn’t drink it even when the eccentric host took a sip of his.I noticed how he had the same thick-rimmed spectacles and curly locks

“Thank you, everyone!” The doe-eyed pop idol smiled as the crowd cheered. Sapphire blue eyes sparkled and I found myself drawn to them once more.Sable Vogel is the ideal girl any straight man can have. Petite looking and small enough to cuddle, long black wavy hair that covers most of her back, the cute dance moves and innocent reactions during interviews were some of the many reasons why she has almost all of Luna’s male population as her fans.Ignacio has done a good job of planning the Slums tour. I wasn’t too sure if the idea would be well-received as Sable was a typical Inner City spoiled brat. She didn’t mean any harm but her childishness could rub people the wrong way especially in the Slums when their motto was ‘Live Strong’.Looking forward to the over the top cost

It wasn’t difficult to set the bone in place but Cass’ sour expression made things a lot harder than it should be. Maybe treating him like a child was a bad idea. Sable tried to make light of the situation by sharing some of her funny backstage moments with the production crew but it worked as well as a wet sponge drying the ocean.The anecdotes dwindled and eventually died with Cass looking no more pleased than a man signing his death warrant. The idol appeared exhausted with her futile attempts and I didn’t blame her. Clearing my throat in an attempt to ease myself into a conversation starter, I tried to break the ice.“I’ll start with the introduction. Titus Crowley. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”The grim features only scrunched up more, morphing the sour expression to so

“I didn’t expect to see you so soon again,” I told Nash frankly as he threw something to Khronos. It was a large bag and I couldn’t help but be a little curious about the content. The scientist rummaged through the items and smiled when he found what he was looking for.“These are the remaining supplement pills from the last batch. Cass will inform us when a new batch arrives. Meanwhile, you can analyse those. The rest of them are gifts that Sable hasn’t thrown away. You might want to work on them at once. I’m not sure how long DNA can last on these things.”Khronos smirked. “Thanks for the hard work. You, on the other hand, need to get checked and then rest. No more running errands for the both of you, doctor’s orders.”Annoyed at the scientist, I wa

“Are you sure you don’t want me to come with you?”I sighed silently as Nash’s concerned voice crackled from the communicator. Before I could answer, Khronos beat me to it.“Yes, he is sure. Goodness! Have some faith in your protégé! It’s just a simple break and enter mission, elimination if something goes wrong. If he can’t manage it, you can step in.”Nash grunted but settled down once more. It had been two hours since I started the stakeout, waiting for Kalifa to appear. Khronos was positive that she would make her trip to the secret lab today and I was to follow her out from her hidden apartment.Rion certainly spared no expenses in ensuring the safety of his lover. As Kalifa was escorted into a wheeler fr

Faster! Move faster!“There he is! Shoot him!”I cursed as a shot grazed my upper arm. They weren’t keeping their chill anymore. Rion wanted me dead, no doubt about it. Nash would have my head for not telling him there were people out for my blood. That was all the motivation I needed to run quicker.“Titus! What do you think you’re doing? Get back to base now!”Wincing at the sheer volume, I reached for the mute button.Just as I rounded a corner, a new group of men decked in Luna Security uniforms appeared. They didn’t have much time to react when Baby Blue covered the area. I needed a diversion…Up ahead was an alley, perfect for
