Chapter 23 - Infiltration

Earth

City of Callisto in Northern India

A man walking in a shady alley, whistling and each step can be heard echoing, wearing a leather coat on top of simple black suit with white t shirt and tie and eccentric smile on his face. He entered a building with 3 floors and got into the elevator.

"What is the password." A metalic voice inside the elevator spoke. "Disaster for Shakil" The man spoke.

"That is the wrong password." The elevator door closed and the walls of the elevator became spikes and pierced the man.

*Whoosh* Like a gusty wind a lady covered in black skin tight suit came and picked the man right before he got pierced. Her eyes are those of a cat.

"Why are you so reckless Callisto? You knew that was the wrong password and I told you I didn't wanted to interfere." The lady spoke.

"But you still came to rescue me Dear Merry chan. That's why I love you." Callisto spoke with a hint of sarcasm in his voice but it was hard to tell if he is joking or being serious.

"This is why I hate you. The Crystals may be small group but they are powerful enough to kill you. Do not forget that you are not in your prime anymore." Merry chan said with irrigation in her voice.

"These people do not understand that destruction of Shakil will only lead to Mother Earth's demise. If I don't stop them when they are weak then it will become a huge problem in the future."

As Callisto spoke those words Three men wearing red kimono came in elevator from the ceiling and pulled out guns to shoot the intruders. Callisto didn't move an inch but Merry chan pulled out a sword from God knows where and deflected the bullets.

"Let's finish this first and then I will scold you." Merry said that and the next second the whole building exploded and two people walked out of the explosion unscathed.

"Let's go before the authorities arrive. We can't mess with them right now." Merry chan said as she walked towards a sewer gate and Callisto followed her.

"Now now Merry chan don't get mad at me. I am sorry, I won't do it again."

After 20 minutes

Army officers came and put out the fire from the explosion and started the investigation but they weren't able to find out who caused it.

At the Main gate of Callisto city

A portal opened and came through a man with red hair and clean shave, wearing the attire of a noble samurai behind him was a cute girl with pink hair and a pink kimono matching her hair who looked 15 years old. They both had some scales on their body. Yes, the man is the king of Shakil, Yuta and the Girl is Chancel, Yuta's soon to wife and a minister of Shakil.

"So this is the Callisto city. It is as grand as The Dingdom although it's size is rather small."

Yuta turned to Chancel," We should first infiltrate and talk to the leader directly otherwise the guards in the front will attack if we are upfront." She nodded in agreement and both of them took the human form.

Walking towards the main gate Yuta who is now dressed in simple clothes of Earth like Tshirt and pant talked to the guard.

"We finally made it. Excuse me, this is the city of Callisto right?" Yuta spoke and the guard looking at him nodded and said," This is the city of Callisto. Are you a survivor? We don't see many now a days. Especially an uninjured one like yourself. Most of the people that come are half dead. You are lucky, dude."

"Yes, We are survivors. I am Yuta and this is my fiancee Chancel. We are not from this country. I came from... uh " Yuta looked towards Chancel and poked her with his elbow.

"We came from Nepal. Although we were not citizens there. The breakout happened when we were there on vacation." Chancel started to fill the gap of the stories. After some time guard registered them as the citizens and let them in. He even gave them a tour manual so they can get started.

"This city looks even more grand from inside. I will have to meet its builder and have them make me a castle." Yuta commented while Chancel was asking for usefull information.

"There are statues of Co founders outside The Callisto castle. We can go there to get started." Chancel commented and both of them started to walk on air towards the Callisto castle.

People around who saw them walking on air thought it must me some sort of skill so they didn't pay much attention. Although some people was amazed by the ripples in the air.

"Wow! The Callisto castle is as beautiful and noble as my own castle." As Yuta was admiring the castle with a smile on his face someone placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Thank you. I made it myself but what do you mean by that Callisto castle is as beautiful as your own castle. Do you have a castle?" Santosh asked the man who was admiring his work.

"No, I was just saying stuff. Hey, Arn't you the guy whose that giant statue is of?" Yuta asked straight away due to which some tension can be seen on Chancel's face if they will get caught or something.

"Yes that is me. I am the co-founder and the builder of this place. Are you new here? I had just finished working on the new power plant so I am free if you want to talk or something.

My best friend has ran off with his girlfriend and I don't have anything to do right now." Santosh said as he walked with them to a nearby bench below the statue and sat.

"So you are the co-founder. Yeah, Me and my fiance are on a date right now but tell me an address I will drop by tomorrow and we can have all the chat you want." Yuta said that and put his arm around Chancel who blushed because of it.

"Oh Is that so. Well I live here in this castle so Drop by anytime. See you later dude. " Santosh said that and walked inside the Castle.

"He is suspicious about us." Yuta face turned serious but his serious mood was broken by a elbow strike on his stomach by Chancel.

"Of course he is Suspicious. You were so hasty, A dog could figure out that something is wrong with us."

Chancel and Yuta than went towards the Callisto plaza.

Inside the Callisto castle.

"Admiral Dan, I want you to keep tabs on the couple I was talking outside. They seems Suspicious." Santosh walked in talking on the phone and gave his coat to a maid standing on the door.

"On it Sir."
