GAME OF THE DEVIL

CHAPTER 29

Haris Ariti is a member of the Voross Parliament Government, the legislature of the country, and is deeply familiar with Naois Ivanov.

Kung kaya't pagbaba nila Noah at Kalea ng sasakyan, imbes na harapin sila nang may galit na ekspresyon sa mukha ay nagulat siya bago biglang umamo ang kaniyang pakikitungo nang makaharap ang mga kilala at prominenteng tao ng underground society.

Kung oobserbahan ang nangyaring insidente, makikita na sila Kalea ang nasa tamang daan at siya ang bigla na lamang sumingit sa kalsada't nabangga ang sasakyan nila.

Plano niya pa sanang siya ang magalit at gamitin ang posisyon para makalusot katulad nang nakagawian niya pero sa kasong ito ay alam niyang hindi niya 'yon pwedeng gawin.

Ang gobyerno ng Voross ay pamilyar sa mga tao at sistema ng underground dahil paminsan-minsan silang nagkakaroon ng transaksyon rito dahil sa iba't-ibang rason. Isa na sa mga nakatransaksyon nila ay ang Phoenix Mafia, ang kinikilalang pinakamalakas at pinakanakakatakot na sindikato sa underground, at ang nagsilbing representative ng Phoenix para maisagawa ang transaksyon nila ay si Noah. Kaya alam niya kung kailan siya dapat magpakumbaba, kahit labag sa kalooban niya dahil sa sobrang taas ng pride niya.

'But if I think about it,' he thinks, 'I'm on the same level as him. We're both Orphics and have great legitimate power and authority. I may be even more powerful than him because I work in the government and he's in the underground. I'm in heaven and he's in hell.'

And so, Noah should see his value and also treat this accident in a more civil way.

"Mr. Ivanov!" nangingiti niyang bati habang naglalakad papalapit, "It's you! It's been so long since we last saw each other!"

"Mr. Ariti," Noah beamed as bright as the sun, "I really want to kill you right now."

He stopped.

What?

"Apparently, I'm in a really bad mood tonight," he said, "And you just made matters worse."

Noah turned to his left when he saw traffic enforcers coming their way.

Kalea sighed before walking to where they are to greet the police along with them.

Nalipat ang tingin ni Haris sa kaniya na kahit ito ang pinakaunang beses na nakita niya ang babae sa personal ay alam niyang isa rin ito sa mga Mafia Executive ng Phoenix, si Kalea Arsenault.

"We'll take care of him later," rinig niya pang sabi ng babae kay Noah na ikinalamig ng buong katawan niya, "But for now..."

Before the traffic enforcers arrived at the scene, Haris began to scream while pointing at them out of fear, "Killers! Killers! They're killers! They'll kill me!"

Kalea wanted to correct him, but only ended up doing so in her mind.

"Oh, we're not the ones who'll be doing the killing."

Wherein afterwards, she and Noah greeted the police who finally came with a worried expression, seemingly concerned about the MP's (Member of Parliament) mental condition.

"We don't know what's going on with him, officer," was all they could say, clueless about what's happening to him.
