There will come a time in your life when you lose something that matters to you. You’ll fight for it and you won’t win. But what really matters isn’t the war you’re waging. It’s that you don’t lose the person you are in the midst of the battle.

************

The five men were shocked. They looked at each other in confusion. ‘Why would there be company when we have already completed the mission!’ They cause in their mind. Emma was flabbergasted.

The intel he received was the main gang will be back in the next two hours. How could they arrive now? After a few seconds, every one of them had regained their bearing.

>>Let see how you escaped without going unscathed…

“How many?” Emma asked.

[Thirty men, fully armed.] Zeus replied. [You’re advised to leave this area for a better-escaped option.]

“Let go.” Emma carried the woman on his shoulder, leading the way. “We have thirty fully armed men. What are your thoughts?”

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Emma’s group all received a notification on their phone. The group quickly brought out their phones from their pocket. Every one of them checked the notification.

They saw a 3D blueprint of the building they were in and there were many moving red dots. Also, their position was marked on the blueprint with a green dot.

After a few seconds of checking the blueprint, they received it from Terra Word. They understood how dire the situation was.

They looked at each other faces but none of them could see the expression of each other faces. Due to the mask. Since none of the men gave their opinion. Emma decided to take charge.

With that decision. Cracking. He felt something was getting lost in his body. But he couldn’t pinpoint it. It was like his real existence was waking up from his slumber.

Finding his existence. Knowing the reason for his existence and finding the purpose of his existence. The real Emma had risen. Instantly, Emma’s bearing took a turn, brimming with confidence.

“We follow the blueprint and fight our way out,” Emma commanded, looking at the faces of the five men. “We follow the previous formation. Be prepared for anything. Helps your fellow brother when the situation calls for it. Terra World will guide us out.” With that, Emma straighten his back and walked forward confidently.

Seeing this, the five men rolled their eyes under the mask. ‘Really!’ the men shook their heads and follow Emma. In their current situation. There was nothing they could do but fight their way out. So, the five veterans accepted Emma’s deduction.

Meanwhile, one of the leaders of the Viper gang and his subordinates were stunned when they discovered the dead bodies of their comrade where they were hidden.

Who has the balls to kill their member under their nose? They roared madly. All the gangs were frenzied. The building was in upheaval.

“Search the building. Leave nothing unturned.” The leader shouted, withdrawing his pistol. He threw away the cigar he was smoking.

His eyes were bloodshot. “Follow me.” He pointed to some of his underlings. With a large stride, the leader walked toward the basement.

At Emma’s side, they were already in the corridor leading to the first floor of the building. They walked without making a sound. Only their rough breathing and the pounding of their chest could be heard in the silent passage.

[Enemies in the target range. Visual appearance in 10 sec.] Zeus announced.

With this, Emma grouped became apprehensive. The atmosphere became thick and could be cut with a knife. Emma gripped is 9mm pistol, pointing it straight, looking at the entrance like an eagle targeting its prey.

[You are advised to enter the first floor for more flexibility and more fighting chances.]

Hearing this, Emma’s group increased their pace. After a few seconds, they reach the door. Emma retreated to the back while two of the men pushed the door gently.

Opening the door slightly, the two men saw some men around. Not to lose the element of surprise. Instantly, they opened the door wide, also shooting their target.

Piss!

Piss!

The viper gangs were caught off guard. Five of them were killed instantly. While the last person at the back shot some bullets before he was taken down.

However, these bullets sound the alarm for the other viper members. Quickly, they began to rush toward the location of the sound. Now Emma’s group had lost the element of surprise.

[3 o’clock]

Bam! Bam!

The viper gangs were armed with heavy fire armed, giving Emma’s group no room to breathe. Quickly, Emma’s group dispersed into the nearby rooms.

Emma dashed into the room by his left while panting. The sound of the heavy, firm-armed bullets scared the shit out of him. But somehow, he wasn’t scared of it.

“So, this is it. Bring it on. Your daddy will teach you lessons.” Emma’s eyes brimmed with confidence. He didn’t know where the confidence was coming, though.

The sound of bullets was raining like a heavy downpour. However, Emma was waiting silently behind a chair for his target to arrive.

Emma didn’t need to wait too long. Shortly, two broad-chested men rushed into the room with an automatic rifle. They were looking at the room with a menacing gaze.

>>Ops! Let see how you end your wretched life without this queen… Kneel and beg me. I may consider. Lily’s taunted.

‘In your dream. Watch and learn how your daddy shows them how it’s been done.’ Emma snickered in his head.

>> …. Lily was dumbfounded.

‘Oh-oh. You can’t talk. Dog eat your tongue. Hmm. Hmm. Bow before your father.’

>> Shut up. You haven’t dealt with them yet. Humph!

Behind the chair. Emma controlled his breathing. He placed the woman on the floor behind him. He peeped and saw the men coming to his location.

The distance between him and the men was less than 3 meters. Without further ado, Emma jumped out from his hidden position while shooting the nearest target.

Pisss!

Piss!

Thu!

Emma landed, rolling on the floor, hiding behind another chair

Hmm!

Realizing what was happening. The second man began to shoot like a maniac toward the position where Emma was hiding. Nevertheless, Emma waited calmly.

[5 seconds to reload.] Zeus informed Emma.

“Good.” Emma’s eyes brimmed with exhilaration. All his nervousness had been gone.

Shortly, the man stopped shooting. He shouted. “Don’t think you can hide forever. I know where you are. When I lay my hand on you. I make you regret going against us. The Viper. You’ll wish you are not born… at all.” He released the empty magazine brought out a loaded magazine from his pocket, trying to reload his rifle without alerting Emma.

“I know I can’t hide forever. But I know you’re trying to reload your rifle.” Emma stand up and looked at the man confidently. “Say hi.”

What!

Piss!

The man widened his mouth but never to close it again. A hole had already appeared on his forehead, blood gushing out of it. Thud! Down he fell.. Never to stand up again.
