Apocalypse Cheater

Chapter 17: The Bell Organization Part 2

The old man spoke with a soft smile plastered on his face.

Out of the six who were seated, the old man was the first to serve the lady before any of them.

Because of his long-term service and absolute loyalty, he knew every single thing about Leila and the reason why she abandoned Daniel.

Well to Leila, he's like a grandfather to her and someone who stood and supported her side when everyone abandoned her for a 'sin' she never did. Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m

Hence, the old man possesses a seniority level that they should respect, yet they did not since each of them was equal.

Moreover, the old man preferred to be treated as normal.

"Old Jack, you still don't have the thought of retiring?"

"Don't you have the desire to live the remainder of your life in bliss before the fire sparks out?"

Fara spoke with care.

Aside from Old Jack, Fara was Leila's best friend.

Since their age was close, Fara knew how much Old Jack put effort into serving Leila with his utmost effort and loyalty.

But even in his 60s, his body remained strong and sturdy enough to serve at least another decade before his remaining life expectancy runs out.

But even time itself didn't stop him from leaving his duty.

At least before his death, he wished to serve the son of Leila who he wanted to serve.

"Ah Fara, thank you for your care, but you know me the best"

"I won't give in to my age and at the very least, I wish I could serve the young boss at least once and it seems like that day wouldn't be far"

Old Jack smiled as he recalled the cries of Daniel when he was a baby.

He couldn't forget that moment and how the baby had similar characteristics to his mother.

It was a phenomenal sight and he won't ever forget the scenery of Leila holding tightly to her baby as her tears flooded.

Recalling why she cried, his smile turned into hatred as he remembered the 'man' solely responsible for everything.

Fara noticed the old Jack's slight moment of killing intent and she has an idea who was it for.

It's not unknown to them what truly happened as they were gathered to build up Leila's organization.

They harbour hatred towards a dead man since he was the cause of everything.

"Still, I wonder what the president's son is like?"

"His information is hidden and classified because the leader is overprotective, but I heard he got his mother's looks?"

Fara immediately became interested in the boy.

And she licked her lips in seductiveness as though she couldn't wait to hunt the prey.

Her eyes light up as though the beast inside of her had awakened.

There's a reason each of the six was chosen and became a branch leader of each department and it's due to their talents.

While Areia has the talent of intelligence, Lye is a prodigy in Martial Arts, and he created his martial arts called 'Transcendence'.

The Old Jack is more of possessing versatile proficiency such as communication, high-class serving, cooking, and accountants.

Despite his talents not being incredible, Leila found his talent in management as an important factor since management is the foundation of building an organization otherwise, everything would be a mess.

However, Fara is a dangerous woman that contains manipulative seduction where she could turn genders into her binding with her body.

There were countless times of prey falling into her trap, and she blackmailed them into her bindings.

Even worst, she has a talent for chemistry and as a result, she could create poisons that kill her enemies under the leader's order without anyone questioning.

She's like a wild beast that kills her prey without any noticeable evidence.

Hence, she's terrifying in the art of seducing and poisoning.

Still, her lust toward those she finds like prey is no joke. After all, once she sets her sight, no prey could escape from her hands.

"...." The old Jack gazed at Fara with a piercing look.

"Whatever you're thinking of, you should cease them"

"If it's about other people, I wouldn't care, however, this is the president's son you're talking about and I won't let you lay your hands on him even if these old bones have to reawaken themselves"

The old Jack spoke with killing intent which attracted the remaining two branch leaders.

"Woah woah, relax old Jac, I'm just kidding. I wouldn't dare to mess with the 'Old Demon'"

Fara raised her hands high as though surrendering.

"You better be!"

'Still, I won't give up though' Fara thought.

"Still, I heard our Tess recently has uncovered the new invention of 'Tessera'? I wonder how it's phased now?"

Out of curiosity, Old Jack mentioned a project that the Organisation has been working on for a release of a new invention of dangerous technology.

"Well, it's still in its testing phase and I calculated it would be at least a year before its prototype will be completed"

"There are still lots of experiments and work to be done"

"Nevertheless, when it's complete, I can bet you that we have created a weapon that would terrify the wits out of the world"

The man whom Old Jack referred to is Tess.

The reason why the Organisation could cover up its dirty work is all because of Tess, the sole creator, and inventor of every single new item that was created and sold to consumers.

Each of his works was ahead of the current technology by a decade or more.

Inventions like microchips battery that could sustain the digital phone for a year before replacing it with a new one exists.

Or a bendable laptop that could materialize a completely touchable holographic screen in the middle of the air.

And the invention of nanotechnology that cures deep wounds or regenerates a missing limb in an instant or restores a paralyzed human to his previous state.

Everything was possible and it's all because of Tess's invention.

However, all of these inventions were facades to mask their true inventions, and one of them was the horrifying soon-to-be complete Tessera.

There's not much information about it except that once it has been completed, the whole world would be under the grasp of Leila's hand.

Despite achieving her ambition and a lifelong dream, Leila is an ambitious person that wouldn't stop from becoming a person where no one could defy her.

Perhaps the reason why she became this way is due to the events that almost drove her to insanity.

And she vowed and made an oath that she'll become a person where no one can go against her.

Having said that unlike the 5 who were introduced, Tess is a character with a cool personality where he hides his emotions.

He's the kind that'll adjust his spectacle each time he had to explain something.

Well in the end, as long as he can continue his hobby of inventing and creating, he'll never stop not now or in the future.

After all, his thirst for knowledge could be as high as the sky.
