Chapter 967: Tensions Rise

He needed to talk to Van Dyke and Fischer and explain the situation.

Erik left the room with Emma inside the room. Of course, she soon left to call for a healer.

Erik walked down the hall and spotted one of the Red Palace\'s teachers. Few knew about Erik\'s return to New Alexandria and his current involvement in the rebellion; luckily, the spy was not aware of that.

However, that particular teacher knew. That was why he was nearby, because he was tasked with guarding the area.

"Call Van Dyke and Fischer right away. Tell them it\'s urgent."

Though the professor did not like Erik\'s commanding manner, he agreed to make the calls.

Erik then entered a nearby meeting room and made his way over to the plush, inviting couch that sat against the far wall.

He sank into its comforting embrace, taking a moment to gather his thoughts and make sense of the current situation.

With a deep breath, he embraced the peace in the room and reviewed the events of the day.

So many revelations had come from interrogating Momentum: the identity of Caelora City\'s attackers, a spy within the rebels\' ranks.

But Erik did not have enough information yet to have a complete understanding of the situation.

Van Dyke and Fischer needed to be brought up to speed on these latest developments, so they could take care of the matter.

The most important thing right now was to leave the Red Palace and find another place to house the rebels.

Not only that, but since Momentum had been taken prisoner, it was clear the blackguards were going to at least think he was going to say something, even if unlikely.

That meant they were going to attack soon, and if they did, the Red Palace was going to be razed to the ground.

All of this would clearly result in losing the chance to find Richard. If the man died, Erik would have free rein in killing Volkov, but he would lose a valuable ally and... he didn\'t know how Emily would take it. To make her friend suffer was the last thing Erik wanted.

The young man took a deep breath and steeled himself as Van Dyke and Fischer entered the

room.

He stood up from the couch to greet them, about to share the troubling info he got from Momentum.

"We have an enormous problem."

...

...

"So, Stephen is the spy?" Fischer said. "Mother fucker..."

Despite the man having been a colonel within the army and a relatively high-ranking member

of the rebels, Fischer had the lucky thought of not telling him everything.

If he had, he would have known about Richard\'s search, about Erik, and about the tunnel.

"Is he a friend of yours?" Van Dyke asked Fischer.

"Not really."

"Good, because we must kill him."

"We can\'t do it now," Erik said.

"We need to find another place to hide and a way to avoid Middleton learning about it and about the fact that we know about him."

"That won\'t be easy."

"It should if we keep doing what we were doing before. Attack the blackguards," Erik said. "But we have no time anymore. I found out where Dark tendrils stay, so I will take care of him, but we need to save Richard. Do you have any idea where he is precisely kept?"

"Yes," Fischer said. "We confirmed some time ago that he was in the Gran Ducal Prison; the problem until now was that we didn\'t know exactly where, we didn\'t know how to enter, nor did we have someone strong enough to pull that off. But with your clones, we would be able to do it."

"I guess you found out about his cell, then."

"Yes. Right wing, Area G, Cell 385."

"All right. We need to come up with a plan to make this happen. Only when Richard is free, I will be able to kill Volkov."

"Yes, we will start working on it with June, then."

But Fischer wasn\'t really certain the situation was going to improve. The blackguards had many men and weapons in New Alexandria; at this point, killing Volkov meant nothing. They would still stay within the city after he died, or so he thought, meaning the only way to get rid of those who controlled the city from the shadows was to wipe them all out.

"Do you really think the blackguards will leave the city after we kill Volkov?" Fischer asked.

"Not really; on the contrary, I think they will increase their efforts in getting it under control. Unless..."

"Unless?" Fischer asked Erik. "Unless I appear somewhere..."

"That makes sense."

And it truly did, because Erik told Van Dyke and Fischer that he was the blackguards\' actual

target.

Most of the things they did in New Alexandria, including Richard\'s abduction, was meant to lure him here. The sad part was that it worked.

However, this meant that they would do whatever they could to get him, and that meant taking troops from New Alexandria to send them to where Erik was.

"We should have a chance if they take away troops from here."

"Yeah, they do not really care about Frant at this point. They only care about me."

"We will need someone to take your place, especially Ben Fink\'s place. We will also need your clones and the weapons."

"I didn\'t plan to stop sending you the rifles or to take the clones with me. The only clone I will bring with me is June and my three friends. Richard, of course, I will leave him in your care. You might then give him to those who will come to bring you the rifles. They will escort him

back to my place."

"I\'m still curious to know where this place is," Fischer said.

"Maybe I will bring you there after all this shit is done."

"You promised, uh?" Fischer said.

"I promised."
