Chapter 197 - Part One: Visit From Federation

(Zack's POV)

Two days later, Morning time.

I'm staying here in new single bed room, inside the Hansen building. Fortunately, I didn't come across any trouble these days. Rather I would say, people are very busy dealing with their own matters. No one got any time to think about single student. Which is very convenient for me to roam around the building here and there freely. Just as I leisurely lying down on the couch.

"Ding"

My sci-fi wrists watch beeps with notification. I take a good look at it to read. "Hmm" It's from Mr. Jonathan, reading the name, I straightened my back to read it fully. After going through the message my eyes lit up with joy. I thought something would be serious. Luckily, his message is like spring breeze for me. "Good!" He mentioned that he brought something which is very valuable to me. I remember last time, I got mutated bloodline core from him. It greatly improved my cultivation back then.

"I don't know what kind of sweet goods he bought this time." I mumbled under my breath. As usual, I will exchange items from Luke's storage ring to Mr. Jonathan. He also knew my situation. He is currently travelling to reach here. He will reach Red Stone City by evening.

He also gave me some hotel address to visit him there at that time. He surely prepared for everything. Which is good, then I will patiently.

After sorting out, I went to fight against combat Puppet. Still, I can't be sulking about my slow progress of lightning method. There fore, I focused my mind on improving skill proficiency.

At this time, I couldn't help but think of Mr. Arthur and Ms. Adeline Key. Ms. Adeline key is taking care of him personally. So, she can't teach me during her daily fighting session.

So, I intent to use this good opportunity to increase my strength.

At this time, Elder Thornton is visited by People from the Army Federation.

So, Elder Thornton patiently waiting for them at the Front gate. He is not the only one, he is accompanied by several other Elders. Including Elder Jensen, Elder Alicia and Elder Smith.

Elder Jensen and Elder Smith both of them smiling gleefully. While Elder Alicia reveals a small smile. But inside her heart, she couldn't stand against these two. It's not the she turned over a new leaf. Rather she and Elder Jensen, both of them tore each other faces.

So, its impossible to stand in same team in future. In these past few days, she also heard about Elder Jensen's activity. "Like a dead wood, which got a new spring of life. He is been over active lately." She sneered inside her heart.

The other hand, She saws Elder Thornton's poker face. She has a complex expression seeing him like that. She feels it will be hard for Elder Thornton to solve this coming trouble. Earlier, she thought it won't be much of criticism. Because this incident is caused by enemy. But still people use it as chance to discredit him.

Elder Alicia caught in dilemma. She never stood in Elder Thornton's side, now, she also tore face with Elder Jensen. So, this time she will suffer some economical disadvantages. She let out a long sigh in her heart, Realizing it.

The other hand, Elder Jensen and Elder Smith glancing at each other in understanding. There were also some other Elder talking among themselves.

"Several Elders, Could you please be quite for a moment?" Elder Thornton said with a stern tone.

The atmosphere quiet down a moment after hearing his words. All of them stopped their murmuring.

"Harumph"

"Thornton, What are you playing now? There is still some time left for people to arrive here" Elder Jensen sneered openly.

Hearing that Elder Thornton glanced at Elder Jensen. Then he revert back to his original posture gazing at outside. He didn't want to waste his time with this moron.

Elder Smith the other hand stood silently. He didn't want to participate in verbal spat between these two. Although he is supportive of Elder Jensen. He didn't want to act against Elder Thornton openly. He didn't like to stand out too much.

The other Elders stood silently, suddenly, there is a roar of four wheeler on the street. All of them looked ahead immediately. An High end laser installed, an armored four wheeler roared across the street. With in a few minutes, it reaches Hansen Training Centre's entrance gate.

Two people stepped out of the vehicle, one of them is a middle aged man and fourteen year old youth. Elders, all of them surprised seeing the duo. These two people look a like in appearance, both of them were father and son duo. The name of the middle aged person is Adrian Curry and his son's name is Dean Curry.

The middle aged man, Adrian Curry worn a black military uniform. He is distinguished by several medals on his chest. Which shows his valor and courage on the battlefield. He also had two special badges stitched on both sides of his fore arm. There is picture of black knight with blood Sword in his hands, stood in upright posture. Which symbolizes special division in the Army Federation.

Adrian Curry, has a typical military cut short black hair. A tall man with physically fit body, hides his overbearing power from others sensibly. His black eyes is shield with black sun glass. A white skin tone and well proportionate face with chiseled chin making him more handsome.

His son, Dean Curry, the kid is same as his father. He is wearing academic uniform with light camouflage texture with small academic symbol badge on his chest. Unlike, his father he had a long grown black hair little over his shoulder. Having brown eyes and light white skin tone with slightly thinner body. His appearance doesn't pale in comparison with his father.

Just as these two people glanced at the gate, Elder Thornton walked forward hurriedly to greet them.

"Sir. Adrian and Young Master Dean, Thank you for coming here and grace our campus with your presence." Elder Thornton said with a smile.

Dean Curry doesn't like this flattering, So he maintained his poker face. But his father Adrian knew Elder Thornton, So, he let out a small laugh.

Adrian Curry smiled and said, " Captain, You don't have to follow this kind of etiquette." Adrian Curry knew about this old man. This old man had a good career profile in the federation. He also got some good old record to his names. So, He likes to give him a face.

But he is here for some other reason. His gaze condensed as he looks at the restoration process. "It's a quite damage." He said to himself. Some pillars damaged severely, so, construction workers working hard to restore it. The damage is occurred in one part of the building. So, the remaining part is safe and functioning. He could only predict seriousness of damage inside.

Hearing that Elder Thornton smiled and led them to introduce other Elders besides him.

Dean Curry Stood behind his father, as his father talks with other Elder.

At this time, Elder Jensen stepped forward and said, "Master, I'm Elder Jensen. Besides Thornton, I'm one of the active Elders of our campus."

The other hand, Elder Alicia snorted in her heart, "Good fellow, He started his famous boot licking strategy."

"Master Uhhh, Interesting!" Adrian Curry began to profile his character in his heart.

Elder Thornton only had slight headache, He knew Jensen would create some drama before he leaves this place.

Then one by one, all other Elders Introduce themselves. Finally, all of them headed back to meeting room.

Elder Thornton leads the way, followed by Adrian Curry and his son. Then rest of the elder followed behind them leaving only Elder Jensen and Elder Smith.

As the people walked some distance ahead, Elder Smith turned toward Elder Jensen and asked, "Jensen, who is he? Why people from the Army Federation visiting us"

Hearing that, Elder Jensen remained silent for a moment. He too doesn't know purpose of their visit. It seems very unplanned. But he speculates in his heart that they came to inspect the site.

Elder Jensen said, "I think they came to oversee the restoration process."

Elder smith thought this is quite possible, so he nodded at him. Then both of them increased their pace to keep up with the Elders.

The other hand, Adrian Curry looks at the damage site, then he side glanced at Elder Thornton for a second. Then without commenting anything, he gestures him to continue their walk to meeting room.

Some time later,

Inside the meeting hall, everyone is seated in their seat. The main chair is headed by Adrian Curry, beside him, his son Dean Curry stood in upright position. Elder Thornton seated from his right-hand of side and Elder Jensen seated from his left hand of side.

Adrian Curry began the topic by asking some annual reports, budget list and resources list. One hour gone by each and every elders share their opinion and remarks.

The other hand, Elder smith has some discomfort in his heart. He hoped that strict looking warrior don't probe too much in his affairs. The same desperation going on among some elders.

Elder Jensen twitched, He is hoping to score good points before him. But this guy is constantly taking about account reports.

"Don't tell me he is like Thornton" He said to himself.
