RE:BORN Zombie-Chapter 117 New Allie-
Victor already had something in mind, as he had formulated a simple plan over the days. At first, he wanted to meet this other crow and have a fight with him, maybe even kill him, but now, he saw that there was no need for that. As for strength, he was going to keep growing and evolving, so comparing himself with some human was not the right way to go about things. There was a far better way.
After some minutes of walking, they got to the room where the person directing them said the leader would be in, and they entered.
“Welcome Maggie.. Crow.” The man inside said.
He was wearing combat clothing like some modern day swat, except his attire looked very much comfortable to be in, and he wasn’t putting on his helmet, or head gear. He was quite the tall man, and had a muscular body under the clothes. Perhaps, the most striking thing was his skin colour, he was black, and not the kind of black where one would associate him with a race of humans, no, he was completely black, like coal. If there was to be a comparison, he would only be able to contend with Mr. Popo.
The Crow extended his hand out to shake Victor, and Victor received it. The moment they held hands, Victor could feel that the Crow had applied pressure and was trying to do some kind of power test right there.
Victor could feel that Crow was quite the powerful one, physically of course, but fortunately, he too was able to match that level and even surpass it. The entire just washed past Victor like a smooth wave.
‘Not bad for the rumours following his name. Certainly deserves to be one of human’s strongest.’ Victor thought in his mind, and so did Crow.
When it became apparent that there was no pressure felt by Victor, and the only ones that were affected really were the two that stood with Crow in the room, Crow stopped and nodded towards Victor before apologising for the test and proceeded to offer them a place to seat.
The room they were in was quite spacious, at least the size of a basket ball court. There was even an offer of wine and some little eateries, but Victor had just the wine.
“So, let’s get down to business. I know you never come here just to say hi, and this time you even brought a most valuable guest.” Crow said, while directing his speech originally to Maggie before switching his gaze to Victor.
‘If only this guy knew that the original plan was to kill him.’ Victor said in his mind.
Honestly, he really changed his mind after they got mid way to see the Crow. After meeting and killing the leader of the Under Current, Victor felt like he might have made a mistake. If he was to just go around killing the leaders of such organisations, it would only reduce the power of the organisation if he took it over, and that wasn’t very good for an organisation, regardless.
After they made some talk about random important things, Victor finally brought up why he came in the first place. Maggie was not aware of these reasons, as Victor had said nothing to her prior.
“Now, for the main reason why we are here. It concerns my plans moving forward.” Victor said, as he took another sip of the wine he was holding.
“I don’t understand, how do these plans affect me really for me to be hearing them?” Crow asked.
As normally, people don’t just go around sharing their plans with strangers, Crow was quite curious what it was that Victor would need to say it to him, maybe it was something that required his expertise. It was safe to say that at the moment, Crow wasn’t exactly impressed or afraid of Victor, as everything he had heard and seen up until this point wasn’t anything that would cause him to be wary of him or not. To him, he could also recreate such feat on a good day.
There was no mention of whether Victor was the one who killed the tens of rankers that entered that dungeon, he was only a suspect since he was the only one that came out of it alive, and the rest never made it. Now, if anyone was smart enough, they would put into consideration that those that entered the dungeon may have encountered some kind of monster that was strong enough to kill them, and maybe only after their deaths did they manage to kill the monster, and then Victor was able to escape.
As for now, being a cautious person, Crow was just being careful, just in case.
“I checked, and it happens that there are a lot of secret organisations, or those operating outside of the governments and proper jurisdictions.”
“Where are you going with this?”
“I want to unite them all, under one banner, if you will look at it like that. They will still retain their individuality, but they will all answer to one organisation overall.” Victor said.
It took some seconds before Crow responded, perhaps this was not something he was expecting to hear.
“May I know what your goal is with this move?”
‘Well, right now there is no definitive plan or reason, but maybe in the future there will, better be prepared than sorry.’ Victor said in his mind.
“For now, there is no definitive goal.” Victor said, then continued. “Will you join me?” Victor asked.
“As an equal?”
“Probably not.” Victor answered. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
“…” Crow remained silent for a while, then he spoke.
“How about we just see how things are going for now, and maybe I’ll decide in the future.” Crow said, with both hands crossed under his chin.
Victor listened to his answer, and noticed what he meant, but truth be told, Victor didn’t want to follow through for today. He made this plan just when they were heading here, so he thought to leave it for the time being.
“That will do then.” Victor said, dismissing any other thoughts.
