Footsteps were heard.
The figure of a woman wearing belly dancer clothes approached Viktor.
Half of her face was not visible because it was covered by a cloth, only showing a bit of white skin and blue eyes.
"Viktor Romanov," said the woman.
In his mind now, Viktor wondered if this was Greg's doing? Viktor thought the woman standing in front of him was Greg's subordinate.
Suddenly Djinn's voice entered Viktor's head.
<Just to let you know, she is the strongest of all the women here.>
After hearing the information from Djinn, Viktor felt uneasy,
Viktor needed to take off the Witch's Pendant if he wanted to face her. But the ropes around his body restrained him tightly.
At the same time, even removing the Witch's Pendant did not guarantee him victory against the Sky Realm Middle Stage,
Even if Viktor won, there were still 29 Earth Realm people ready to finish him off. It was still difficult for Viktor to fight 30 men alone.
"Viktor Romanov, Third Son of the Romanov Family. Born from an illicit relationship between Vasily and the famous singer Zhao Wenli, even though their status is finally official. Raised by being trained in various types of martial arts and weapons. Then when he was quite ready to get married, he was betrothed to Princess Evangeline of Swedish royal descent. But in the end, spent adulthood partying and having fun."
Victor sighed. "Wow, you explained my life's biography in detail... Which tabloid did you read it from?" Viktor smiled and laughed a little, then continued, "Is this kidnapping? Do you want ransom? Trust me, if you need ransom, you got the wrong Romanov, I am basically worthless."
The woman stared at Viktor for a long time, while Viktor tried to find what she wanted.
The woman then smiled slightly and said
"Sisters, please let me talk with him in private"
Viktor watched the Earth Realm women leave the room one by one. He didn't understand, why after showing off her people to him, she told them to leave instead.
"Viktor Romanov, you don't have to pretend. I know you're not worthless."
The muscles in Viktor's face twitched for a split second at the woman's words.
"I know your long adventure the last few months. Out of the hiding in a bunker, then through the blizzard to Arkangelisk City. After that, you met your brothers in Novgorod and your sister in Volgograd. And ended up in this city. Before coming here, of course, you don't forget to say hello to Major Benjamin."
Viktor was so shocked that his eyebrows shot up.
'How did she know all this?'
In fact, not many people know about what happened in Arkangelisk, while the affair with his two siblings had only happened in the last 2 days.
"I also know what deal you made with Greg," the woman continued. "But believe me, he won't keep his word. That person will stab you in the back."
Victor frowned. The mysterious woman knew everything, even telling Viktor that Greg would betray him.
'If she's not with Greg, then who is she?'
His head was filled with question marks.
"You must be wondering how I know all these... let's just say I have lots of eyes and ears in Russia."
Viktor looked the woman in the eye. "Why were you telling me this all again?"
"Think of it as an introductory gift from me. I have information that Greg is currently sending his men to see your brother Garron. You might find it hard to believe, but Greg and Garron are related. Maybe 3 days—no, it could be sooner, Garron will send some guys, his men, to stop you. Depends on how interested he is."
Viktor sighed. All the women said made sense. "Then what do you want?"
Behind the mask, the woman smiled. "Easy. I hate Greg. I want you to take care of Greg and his little fries for me."
Viktor inhaled through his teeth. "Eh, honestly, I don't want to disappoint you."
Then he put on an expression as if disappointed.
"I'm sure you also know that I only have two lowly bodyguards and three women who are not good at martial arts. Whereas Greg, I heard that man had at least 100 fierce men. As you can see, I have no power. What do you want me to help you with? With my charm?"
The woman approached Viktor. Her face drew closer. They both stare at each other.
Viktor gulped.
"Stop pretending, Viktor," the woman said.
"I also know... Your biggest secret… you are... Viktor… the metal guardian."
"!!!"
Viktor's heart stopped beating for a moment. He was absolutely certain that no one else knew who was behind the Metal Guardian mask. Only those closest to Viktor knew.
Looking at the background of every person closest to Viktor, there was no way that there were spies.
Eva was a loyal wife, and even if Victor jumped to hell, she would come too. Barry and Liza were obviously kids. Boris and Torri would certainly have abandoned him the first time they came out of the bunker had they been spies.
'Jessie and Costa? Impossible.'
Viktor was still wrestling with his thoughts.
'Then how did she know my identity?'
He became nervous. But he still tried to hide it.
"What do you mean?" Viktor made a face like he didn't understand. "Who is Metal Guardian? I think you've got the wrong person."
The woman's eyes narrowed. Then laughed for a while and continued to say, "I was only 40% sure before, but after seeing your reaction now, I'm 99% sure you're a Metal Guardian."
"Wow, wow. You can't just accuse people." Viktor kept trying to dodge.
The woman circled Viktor, who was still bound tightly on a chair.
"The day Metal Guardian appeared in Arkhangelsk City was the same day you were there. On that day, there were no other foreigners in the city apart from your mob."
Viktor's face darkened.
"If you still don't confess, how do you explain surviving until Arkhangelsk after miles of snowstorms with monsters along the way?"
But Viktor still would not confess
Her steps stopped. She stood directly behind Viktor and then whispered into his ears, "I've been with the KGB since I was 12. I've never been wrong. You don't have to pretend anymore, Viktor Romanov."
Feeling that it would all be useless, Viktor sighed. The more he tried to avoid this, the more he revealed who he was.
"Okay… what do you want?"
Unbeknownst to Viktor, the woman smiled with satisfaction.
"As I said before. I want you to help me take care of that rotten Greg! I believe that your current strength is enough to overthrow them."
Viktor still didn't answer. He still hesitated to accept this offer.
"You want me to kill him?... Let me warn you, I am not that comfortable about killing..."
The woman walked over to Viktor. "Really? You might change your mind after seeing what that bastard capable of."
After that, Viktor heave a sigh and said, "How long are you going to tie me up?"
The woman smiled contentedly behind her mask.
…
The night was getting late, white lights were on in some parts of the City.
On the outskirts of Perm City, there was an alley of warehouses that were used to store company products and property. After the apocalypse happened, the place was no longer used.
Of course, not all of them. There were still some people who used the warehouse. One of them was Greg Solov.
In one of the warehouses, eight people dressed in black stood guard while holding long-barreled weapons. They stood guard on each side of the outer part of the warehouse. Each and every one of them was an Earth Realm.
At the front of the warehouse, one could see two people on guard.
"Fuck, it's so cold," complained one of the guards.
"Just go inside, there's plenty to warm you up." The other guard laughed.
"There's Boss Greg inside. You want me to get castrated?"
In the middle of their conversation, one of the guards saw two strange looking people approaching them from a distance.
One person seemed to be wearing silver armor, while the other a tight black outfit. Their faces were not visible because they were covered by masks. certainly warned the guards
"You!!! Who are you guys? Get the fuck away or you'll be sorry!"
The two strangers didn't answer and continued walking toward them. The warning was ignored, and the two warehouse guards pointed their weapons.
"Stop, or we shoot!"
As one of the guards said that, the figure with metal armour shot forward at high speed and hit the two guards. Both of their bodies slammed into the warehouse gate, creating a commotion.
"Whoa!"
The other six guards scattered on either side gathered at the front gate of the warehouse. They were all shocked to see the two warehouse guards who had just gotten finished off by the two figures.
"I am North Star, the Metal Guardian! I today came with my sidekick"
Viktor look at the girl's black outfit and thought of a name... "South... South Pussy!"
