Chapter 407: Meeting With The Old Man

“At least, be gentle...” Zeras roared out as he gently landed back on his feet. If not for his quick reflex he would have his head kissing the cold dark wall instead.

“Pretty crazy and prideful bastards, aren’t they?” The voice came out to Zeras from behind him and Zeras immediately replied instantly.

“Tch, they are truly damn bastards...”

“And they make you feel like putting a knife through their neck, don’t they?”

“You’re spot on. I feel like carrying a blade and giving them tribal marks...” Zeras roared out in agreement but his face dropped down when he finally came to his senses and turned behind him.

And there was his conversate.

“A scrawny looking old man, with bushy beards and hair. His eyes were completely blood red, and from them, Zeras could sense an unbelievable amount of killing intent and a thirst for revenge that couldn’t be concealed.

“Who are you” Zeras asked suspiciously.

“Human, just like you, kid. That is the only identity we possess nowadays,” The man replied unmoving from his position, and slowly Zeras left the bars alone before walking towards him.

“Arriving just an inch from him, Zeras crouched to the ground as he looked at the man’s red eyes scrutinizing, and the strange motion of both of them looking into their eyes went on until the Zera’s broke off eye contact before moving to the opposite side of the cell...”

“I sense a very crazy will of revenge in your eyes, but, it’s also empty. You’ve given up your hope of revenge. All that is left without that, is just a beast trying knowing well it can’t kill his master but at least tries to bite off his toes...” Zeras said out loud but the man’s eyes remained blank.

“That may be true too...” Zeras replied curtly as silence enveloped the place.

“What about you, how did you get yourself here...” Zeras asked curiously.

“Ever since I have come here, I have been counting the time. The man said as he moved his back away from the wall and Zeras finally saw the dug-up lines formed from dried blood on the wall.

“It’s been almost two years now, that I have been captured that night...”

“I was an ordinary EIA personnel. It’s been almost a week since the Alien have descended on Earth. And we all believed the Nine World Leaders and The EIA got the aliens under control. It was said over the news that they were friendly. Besides, the aliens never descended onto Earth, so it was easy for the masses to ignore the ginormous death ships that hovered above our head...”

“Did they ever mention their reason for coming?” Zeras asked with expectant eyes.

“No. The EIA and the World leaders never released that information to the world. It was a ‘top-class secret’, they say...” The man replied mockingly.

“But definitely some type of deal seemed to have been stroke between them and the Aliens. Until one day, the bombs rained down on Earth like rain and immediately war unfolded instantaneously. I lost everything; I watched my world go up in flames. My only son and my wife...” The man said and the sound of gnawing teeth and nails digging into flesh echoed out to his ears.

But he didn’t respond nor did he look at that.

“I had carried my gun and joined in the war, only to realize, this ain’t no war! This is a one-sided killing. The Giarans never came here to agree on some stupid negotiations, they came here prepared to wage war and conquer.

It was too late for me when Earth realized the beast behind those four eyes...”
