Final briefing!

Napabuntonghinga si Mr. Ybañez right after he talked to one of his agent, name "Viper"

He admitted to himself that Leo is still young but they were on war and the boy was already aware of his duty from the very beginning.

Nilibot ni Mr. Ybañez ang paningin sa kanyang mga tauhan na kasalukuyang nag aabang sa anumang kanyang sasabihin. 

Tinipon niya ang lahat ng mga sub leaders ng kanyang nasasakupan dahil may importante syang sasabihin sa mga ito.

"This time, all of you should stay low. The organization will be put at rest starting today, lahat kayo mamumuhay ng normal—"

"Hades. .aalis ho kayo?"

Nagaalalang tanong ng isa sa pinakamatagal na niyang tauhan.

"No—pero kailangan muna nating manahimik, I'm going to open the council at kung sino man sa inyo ang may gustong kumalas, this is your time to step out."

Aniya that makes all of them exchanged nervous whispers, pero ni isa walang sinuman ang naglakas loob.

"Don't be scared to come out!"

"Hades. .ano ho ang mangyayari sa amin?"

Mr. Ybañez discretly smiled, that would be a one hell of a question kung hindi nagproposed ng rechannel si Sophia noon.

"The organization will allow you to stay in whatever position you have right now at kapag darating ang panahon na kakailanganin ko ang inyong serbisyo, are you all going to answer my call?"

"Yes sir!"

Halos sabay-sabay nilang sabi.

"Kung ganoon ano man ang mangyari pagkatapos kung buksan ulit ang council, lahat kayo ay mananatiling tahimik—naiintindihan niyo ba?"

"Pero Hades—"

Anang isa na tila nag aalangan, they already suspected that something is really wrong, dahil sa mahigpit na ipinag utos sa kanila ni Hades.

"My son needs all of you in the future—"

"Hades. .black princess and young master is here!"

Mike informed the old man na saglit nilang ikinatigil.

"Let them in!"

"Hades!"

Anilang apat at nagbigay galang kay Mr. Ybañez bago humarap sa mga kasapi ng organization, all of them give their respect to Sophia and Rain.

"Black Princess. .young master!"

Sabay sabay nilang bigkas bilang pag galang, they were using Royalty names in accordance with respect for formal gatherings like this.

Kaya walang sinuman ang nakakilala sa kanilang tunay na identity, agents and leaders will be called through micro chip at kahit saan pang lupalop sa mundo sila mag punta they were all traced up as long as they were all alive.

The micro chip that's inserted into their body has a self distruction mode, kaya pag sapilitan nila itong kinuha mula sa kanilang katawan, they could be in danger.

And once the new owner activates the seal, all the agents and members information of the organization will also be clasified.

"We knew what we are—at alam kung hinding hindi ninyo kikilalanin ang baguhang leader without the imperial seal!"

Mr. Ybañez said to all of them in a matter of fact tone. Sa organisasyon nila, ang nakakakita lamang ng naturang seal ay mga taong pinagkakatiwalaan ng organization. 

At kung sino man ang may hawak nito ang siya lamang kikilalanin bilang pinuno.

"Minsan ko ng naipakita sa inyo ang aking seal. .tingnan ninyong mabuti kung magkaparehas ba?"

Inutusan ni Mr. Ybañez si Mike na dalhin sa harapan niya si Rain.

"What's going on?"

Nagtatakang bulong ni Rain kay Mike.

"Just follow what he said!"

"Come here son!"

Napalunok naman si Rain ng marinig ang baritonong boses ng matandang Ybañez.

The lights went out nang makalapit si Rain kay Hades.

"All of you look closely!"

Anitong bigla nalang hinawakan ni Mr. Ybañez ang kamay ni Rain at itinapat sa parang scanner. 

Rain and the rest gasped in shocked ng makita ang imperial seal na nakadisplay sa monitor.

There were two black sky dragon, encircled above the Grim reaper who stood in the center, with a scythe in his left while holding a man's head in his right.

The two sky dragon were in head and tail position, meaning one of the sky dragons head is above the Grim reapers head while the other one is on his foot, at pareho nakaharap ang mga mata nito na tila nag aapoy.

"How did. .how did—"

Pautal utal na tanong ni Rain sa matanda, he was too shocked to believe it.

How and when it happened?

"That's your seal. .Hades!"

Sabay sabay nilang sabi sa gitna ng pagkabigla.

"And this seal is what Mondejar's wants at malamang alam na ninyo ang dahilan kung bakit ko ito ipinakita sa inyo?"

Natahimik ang lahat, showing them the imperial seal, only means that they should protect the new owner of it, even if it cost their lives.

"Rain is our future!" 

After Mr. Ybañez announced it, all of them give their respect to the new owner of the seal.

Rain was in awe, he was too shocked to even moved. Imperial seal? New owner? What does it means?

"What does it mean?"

Rain muttered softly without knowing it, He's new into this organization kaya wala syang alam tungkol sa bagay na iyon.

What he thought about the seal is like an object, how come it was like a generates code?

"You're the new master of the house— I am stepping down!"

Muntik ng mawalan ng ulirat si Rain sa pagkabigla ng marinig ang sinabi ng matanda.

"Lo?"

"What?"

Halos sabay na tanong ni Sophia at Rain sa kanya.

Stepping down? And do you expect this people to follow me? Rain wanted to asked Mr. Ybañez but he stop himself, questioning the king's decision is directly insulting him.

But Sophia asked Mr. Ybañez instead, knowing her attitude, she would asked whatever it is, at nasanay na sa kanya ang mga tauhan nila.

Sophia was known for being Mr. Ybañez critics, she's not afraid to voiced out whatever the things she wanted to be cleared, and they respected her for that.

That's why she earned her reputation as the "Black Princess"

"But why?"

"We don't have a choice, this organization won't stay long without a master and as I told you I'm going to open the council, this is the only chance we have!"

Natahimik ang lahat, sa tagal nila sa organization ngayon lang nagkaroon ng ganitong kalaking pagtitipon, ito na pala ang panahong bababa sa pwesto ang pinakakilabot na leader ng underworld organization.

"My son. .will be the new master of the house, I hope that all of you will support him the way you supported me through out the years of my service!"

"We pledge our loyalty and allegiance, to the new master of the house and answer our master calls anytime, whenever and wherever we are, until the last days of our lives and into the generation that comes after us! If we break our bows and betray our master, we will be put to death without justice and no final resting place!"

They all bowed to Rain after they took part of the organization "word of honor!"

After Mr. Ybañez dismissed their men, He called the four of them for the final briefing.

"Why did you passed such heavy burden to Rain?"

Di makatiis na tanong ni Sophia sa abuelo, Rain would've asked the same pero naunahan na sya ng dalaga.

"Whom should I pass—"

"Why not with Mike or anyone?"

May pang aakusang tanong ng dalaga na di parin nagpaawat.

"You know the reason, aren't you?"

"It's not—"

Natigil si Sophia ng marinig ang tanong ng abuelo, Ofcourse she know why it has to be Rain. He's Mr. Ybañez son, his true blood. 

Mr. Ybañez asked those question to trap her and make her stop from arguing, hindi pa kasi alam ni Rain ang totoo na anak talaga sya ni Mr. Ybañez, only Leo and Sophia knew the truth about it.

If Rain will learned about it, in this troubled times, everything will becomes more complicated kaya pinili nalang ni Sophia na manahimik, mahirap na!

"Now—let's continue!"

He smiled triumphantly na ikinangiwi ni Sophia.
