At the same time, five members of the Knights' Council were sitting in the prime minister's courtyard of Block 255 of Yin City, just five kilometers from here. One of the city guards who came in said, "Two young people came to the town of 'Bernal' today, we checked and these two are siblings, the girl's name is Alice and the boy's name is Ronnie, both from You City.”

"Elliot has been quiet for the past few years, why are the people of You City suddenly looking for him?" a Knight member said.

"Ocampo, these two people must have a close relationship with Elliot, otherwise he wouldn't have taken such a risk to meet them."

The one called Ocampo said to the guard, "Keep an eye on them and report immediately if they make any new movements." The guard received his orders and left.

Ocampo then said to another member, "Should we report the situation to the capital?"

"It is better to wait a little longer! let's see if there are any new developments."

As the father and daughter talked, a girl came in and whispered something in Elliot's ear, and he nodded. Turning to Ronnie and Alice, he said, "It seems I underestimated the city-state, they already know you're here."

Ronnie, who hadn't said anything, stepped forward and asked, "So what if the City-state knows we're here? we're father and son, it's not a crime to meet, is it?"

"Of course it's no crime for father and son to meet, I'll take you somewhere," Elliot said and turned and walked to the corner of the wall, swiping his iris at an electronic device on the wall, with a "pop" sound, the wall opened and a one meter wide elevator appeared. Three people stood up, the elevator slowly descended for over fifty meters before stopping. Three people got out of the elevator, like a labyrinth of underground dark passage another fifteen minutes, came to a more than five hundred square meters of underground castle. The door of the castle was made of iron plates half a meter thick, and the three of them entered the castle. The door closed automatically, and Elliot clapped his hands together and shouted, "Ullian's warriors, come out!"

Moments later, more than twenty male warriors appeared inside the castle, naked except for their torsos, covered in black cloth, unusually muscular, and over two meters tall. "These warriors' muscles are as hard as steel, ordinary bullets and swords can't hurt them," Elliot pointed and introduced them.

"Dad, why are you calling them by Mom's name?" Alice opened her mouth to ask.

"The mission of these warriors is to protect our families. when your mother died, I honored her with her name," after a moment's pause, Elliot continued, "now, collect some of your blood, you can also give them orders later through the chip," as soon as he finished speaking, he gave a slight wave of his hand and a girl came out of the darkness and took blood from the siblings. Seeing the duo's blood being drawn, Elliot thought to himself, "What a pair of simple siblings."

"Can I give them orders now?" Ronnie couldn't help but ask.

"Just wait another five minutes," Elliot replied.

While he waited, Ronnie couldn't think of what orders to give. Then he got childish and pointed at a warrior in the center, "You flip a heel!"

That warrior looked at Elliot, only to see him nod slightly, and that warrior got the order and flipped a heel right backwards in the same spot. Ronnie was overjoyed and clapped his hands, "So flexible, would you like to try it, sister?"

"Forget it, I won't try," Alice quickly waved her hand.

After that, the two siblings played here for a few more days before they thought about saying goodbye and leaving. Before they left, Elliot said to them, "If you can't stay in the city-state, you're always welcome here."

"Dad, I will definitely come and visit you often," Alice said with tears in her eyes.

Ronnie, on the other hand, was completely relaxed and just said, "Bye, Dad!" and walked away without looking back. After the siblings left, Elliot returned to the underground castle, which revealed a holographic portrait that looked exactly like himself, but the portrait had a shallow scar on his face, and he asked, "Ronnie and his sister are gone?"

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

"Yes."

"Then let's start the 'Rebirth Program'!" The holographic figure said faintly.

Ronnie and Alice returned to the city-state. As soon as Park Hye saw the duo, she said with a worried look on her face, "You have been gone for ten days and something big has happened in the city-state."

"What is it?"

"The Holy Virgin Saria was murdered."

Ronnie was not very surprised to hear this, "What happened after that, did she die?"

"No, just slightly injured, I heard that the person who murdered her was her female guard."

"Ah ..." this time Ronnie was startled.

"Where is Saria now?" Alice asked.

Park Hye shook her head, "If you want more information you should ask Butch, I heard it from him too."

Butch had been very busy lately because of the assassination of the Holy Virgin. He was still at the Prime Minister's House and returned home late, he didn't wait for Ronnie's duo to open their mouths, he spoke first, "I know what you want to ask, let me take a break, I haven't even drunk water today after explaining to everyone all day at the Prime Minister's House."

He drank one glass of water after another until he was on his seventh, which slowed him down. The cause of the incident was something like this: "In recent decades, the 'New World' has gradually split into two factions, one being the traditional faction led by the last two generations of Holy Virgins, and the other being the 'New New World' proposed by the new generations born in the city-state. They believe that the "New New World" should abandon the "Free World" and let them fend for themselves, instead of keeping those "Black Onan" and dragging the city-state down, and this time, the assassination of the Holy Virgin was initiated by some extremists from the 'New New World' faction," after explaining, Butch added his own insight: "I also think that the city-state is a bit meddlesome right now, as far as our You City is concerned, every time we have to take thirty percent of our resources to support those 'Black Onan'. The 'Free World' gang is getting lazier and lazier."

When the two siblings heard Butch say the words "black onan," their eyebrows furrowed at the same time. They didn't realize he had such discriminatory ideas. Ronnie immediately said unhappily, "Butch, you're from the 'free world' too, so why do you have such ideas?"

"Ah! don't you guys think like that?" Butch asked in surprise.

Alice gave him a quick look and said, "Ronnie and I relied on the City-state's 'subsidized station' to survive during the hardest times. I would like to see the City-state continue that tradition."

"My sister and I are definitely supporters of the Holy Virgin Saria," Ronnie also said firmly.

"Good, good!" Butch mumbled and didn't argue, and the atmosphere became a little strange for a moment. Ronnie felt it was time for him to say goodbye as well, so he greeted his sister, got up and left. As soon as he returned home, Park Hye asked, "Did you find out everything?"

"Hmm! if we leave the city-state one day, will you come with me?"

"Then of course I'll go with you wherever you go."

Vega happened to be home today, and when she heard the duo's conversation, she couldn't help but interject, "Dad, I'm not going with you, my teacher said that the City-state is going to introduce a 'New New World', and that they need our generation to work on it, as well as my best friends who are also in the City-state."

"It seems that these people have already trained the whole next generation to be their successors, it's really powerful," Ronnie couldn't help but think in his head. A few days later, as he was walking home, a man called out to him. The man whispered that the Holy Virgin Saria wanted to see him. For a moment, he couldn't tell if it was true or not, and he opened his mouth to ask: "How do I know if what you are saying is true?”

"You can ask Professor De Silva, not on the Internet, but preferably in person," the man turned his head and walked away.

Ronnie finally decided to go to You City to find De Silva. He boarded the Courageous Train and soon arrived at seat 9819 in You City. De Silva was teaching a class when he arrived. He waited until noon before they met. Ronnie asked bluntly, "Someone came to me today and told me the Holy Virgin wants to see me, do you know the inside story?"

De Silva pulled him into an unoccupied corner and said quietly, "It was I who recommended you to Saria, she used to be one of my students and was also from You City."

"Why did you recommend me? how can I help her?" Ronnie asked confused.

"Saria is in desperate need of some trustworthy scientists right now, most of the scientists in the city-state are now New Generation, and these people have become less reliable, it was a New Generation extremist who murdered them this time. I have been watching you for the past few years and felt that you were a trustworthy person before I recommended you to Saria."

"Professor, thank you for your trust, I will do my best,where is the Holy Virgin now? how can I meet her?"

"She is at Baron Flange's house in 'Shire Town', you should know the place."

Ronnie laughed, "Of course, then I will go to her now," after saying goodbye to De Silva, he hurried over to the Baron's house. Baron Flange didn't know Saria's true identity, and De Silva had only introduced her as his student. Saria had had her face done, she was now dressed as a forty year old woman that ordinary people wouldn't recognize. When the Baron heard that Ronnie had come this time just to look for a forty year old woman, he was extremely disappointed, was there no way for him and Yurina to get back together?
