Chapter 41: invitations from boss Oba and Radha

These big containers are going to be used to collect more water.

Vicky collected the useful things and then let the system extract the materials from the surrounding machinery.

The forging room repaired some tools and other thing.

He went around the industrial area and everything is repaired and stagnant time is added with the previous collected materials.

He was exhausted and returned back to his flat.

There are two notes waiting for him.

One is from Mobo saying that boss Oba wants to meet them at 9 PM in the night and the second one is from Radha that she wanted to meet him.

It was already 9 PM so Vicky went to meet with boss Oba first.

Well he wanted to rest but there is no chance right now.

While going around Vicky moved the water in some tanks to the water storage in the bedroom.

The empty tanks will be filled if he finds good water in the future.

The water needed to be approved by the system as good water before storage.

When he came to the building where boss Oba is staying there is Mobo under the building waiting for Vicky.

“Where have you been?”

Mobo asked Vicky and Vicky simply said that he was looking for the materials in the night market a little farther away.

After that they moved up the building to find boss Oba.

Well there is strict checking below for weapons and they also need to be invited to meet the person they want to meet.

With all of that done they went to meet with boss Oba.

Boss Oba said that they are going to move again and the political leader wants to meet with Vicky as they liked his planning capabilities before.

They want to meet him tomorrow at 9 PM in the night.

Vicky was happy for the opportunity as he can steal all of their things as long as he was given authority to plan and move things.

After speaking for a little while Vicky and Mobo came out and went their own ways.

They will come to meet boss Oba tomorrow evening.

Vicky did not return back to their apartment building instead he went to meet with Radha.

He knows where she lives.

She is not living at the top floor like he does instead it was a little lower.

She is managing things with the help of air cooling conditioners in the closed room.

She did not let Vicky inside instead they went to the top floor to sit on their chairs to speak.

She prepared some cold drinks for Vicky and her.

Vicky took them and drank after checking to see that everything is fine.

Well it is an unopened can so there is no problem.

While drinking Radha spoke that she asked Vicky about how the repair of his space is going on.

Vicky smiled and said it was almost complete.

He is missing few materials and everything is over.

Well she thought for a while and said that she want to go to the production and industrial area to let the system extract materials for repairing.

She asked if Vicky wanted to go along with her.

Vicky smiled and said the bad news to her.

“Sorry to say this but I have already cleaned out the entire industrial area this evening.

Actually I went to the gold reserve to get the materials so on the way I went to collect more materials from the industrial area.

If you want I can suggest other places where you can get some good materials and accompany you if you want my help.”

Well she clearly stated that Vicky should not interfere in her things so he is sticking to his word.

But then again he should help her as a fellow key holder so he decided to suggest some things.

Vicky can see her expression.

She should have used the weak girl image to get the things she needed during this time and attacked her enemies from the dark just like he did.

So she tried to use the same with Vicky that did not work and she lost a can of drink.

Vicky always checks balance in his trade so for the can of drink Vicky told her about the people wanting to move soon.

She did not gain the upper hand in her group and she is just an ordinary survivor.

Also she is a woman so the people did not take her seriously in the current situation.

Well that would change after the mutation started but before that everything is like this.

Most probably she died in a beast tied before as the beasts are attracted to the smell of the blood.

Women have this disadvantage where they have this problem every month.

Even though this is the thing that is important for birth and propagation of civilization and continuation of people, no one cares about this right now.

Well women have to care because they cannot just take it away from their bodies.

So they need to have protection or be strong enough to survive themselves.

Vicky can only pity this issue and cannot interfere with this matter.

He cannot save anyone even if he wanted to.

As for taking Radha to be his woman is not out of the question.

She is beautiful appearance under her disguise, good ‘S’ shaped body and long black hair that she covers up with a wig and a hood.

She wears baggy clothes to cover her beauty and act like a man.

But Vicky is not only interested in the body but also her heart.

If she really asked him for help then he would have really helped her.

Vicky is like that in his past life as well.

He once saw her true appearance and mesmerized by her.

But he did not dare to get close to her after his experience with Nisha.

Vicky knows that she is a good person in heart.

Chapter 42: all I want is trust from you

But he did not dare to get close to her after his experience with Nisha.

Vicky knows that she is a good person in heart.

So before leaving he told her.

“If you need anything all you have to do is just ask.”

Previously when she asked him was to help was acting to take advantage of him.

If she truly asked him for help then Vicky don’t mind helping.

But she has to be sincere.

It is not that Vicky is acting high and mighty.

All he wanted from her is some basic trust.

Well that is the hardest thing to get during the apocalypse.

After Vicky left Radha fell into thought on the final words of Vicky before he left.

Vicky went back to his room and washed up.

Then he ate something to fill up his belly and slept happily for the night.

He can sleep at any time based on his necessity.

Tomorrow he is going to steal the weapons, ammunition, food, fuel and water during the peak heat hours.

But he woke up when it was early in the morning by a knock on the door.

Vicky went to check and found that it was Radha.

Vicky was really surprised and invited her into the house.

Then he arranged some cold drink for her just like she did and even brought out a cold air conditioner for her.

Well he did not take her into the small room.

She looked around and found that the house did not have anything that Vicky needs to pack.

She finally came to the point.

“I want your help in collecting materials for repairing my expanded ark space and some other materials to fill up the expansion.

Since we formed a team I don’t want to act separately wasting time and energy.

For helping me collecting the materials I will tell you the location where the jewels and other gemstones that the bigwigs from my place are keeping.

…………”

Vicky immediately laughed causing her to frown.

She thought that Vicky is looking down on her.

Vicky can see through her thoughts and said directly.

“I am not looking down on you.

If I want the information and jewels, I would have asked for it already.

All I want from you is trust.

You see there are only 7 of us with space.

I don’t know who the other people are but I know you and can guess your life incidents based on the missing people and the past memories.

I know that it is hard to trust other people.

But I want you to trust me.

It is hard I know but only with trust can we cooperate well enough to steal some things.

I know that you want to live on your own independently but that cannot be achieved just with space alone.

You should awaken a good talent after the mutation and improve it perfectly to gain more power.

Only then can a woman stand on the top and remain independent.

For the sake of trust I will share some information with you.

First of all I steal the things in the day time.

To be precise it was around at the noon when the temperature is close to 70 degrees…”

Radha widened her eyes looking skeptical at Vicky.

So Vicky continued.

“I have this constant temperature clothing I stole from a science expo.

I added some stab and scratch proof cloth along with few other materials to make a dress for myself from a tailor that I know.

With that I can go around in extreme temperature below 70 degrees.

You should have heard rumors saying that there is a greedy ghost that is stealing things from the rich during the noon.

They also called it the noon time greedy ghost.

That was actually me.

So now you understand.

As long as you trusted me and asked for my help I am willing to help because I trust you and second I respect you for surviving in this kind of situation for so long.

Also you did not give up after your rebirth.

That is what I admire about you.”

Vicky said and observed for a moment and continued.

“I have the constant temperature clothing.

I cannot take all the materials there for myself.

So you can have some of them.

But do you know how to tailor the cloth into a dress.

If not it would be hard.

Also for safety I want you to stay along with me.

I can assure you that I will not touch you or do anything.

Think of me as a partner and a roommate.

If you know how to make the clothes I can give you the cloth now.

Now tell me your answer.

Do you trust me enough to really form a team with me?”

The future would become where people have to form groups of trusted people to leave their backs to fight with beasts.

So it is very necessary to have trusted people in your group.

Vicky prefers if the key holders become trusted people to him.

This way they don’t have to worry about losing their secret to outsiders.

Radha listened to Vicky’s words and contemplated for a long time.

More than half an hour to be exact and finally nodded her head.

Any way she was single in her past life.

She lived through hell to keep her dignity and disfigured her face with her own hands.

Even then she was not left to live peacefully by many thugs.

She did not have anyone to rely on and the blood smell every month would attract beasts towards her position causing her to live the life in constant alert.

In the past life when she was escaping she accidentally stepped into the lair of a huge snake and died inside its belly.

The snake was originally sleeping and the beasts that chased after her were deterred because of the aura of the huge snake……….

Chapter 43: Vicky really trusts Radha

In the past life when she was escaping she accidentally stepped into the lair of a huge snake and died inside its belly.

The snake was originally sleeping and the beasts that chased after her were deterred because of the aura of the huge snake.

But her periods jumped in at the wrong moment causing the snake to wake up from the bloody smell.

So she was eaten by the snake and died.

She has thought of many times that how good it would be to have someone to rely on during the troubled times.

Every time she felt close to someone she was betrayed.

As for her family they died very early when they are going for a trip during winter vacation.

So she was all alone.

Her relatives are all white eyed wolves and during the past year they tried every possible way to take her fortune.

In the past life she really lost all of her fortune to her relatives and has to live doing part time jobs.

When apocalypse arrived she depended on a bitch called Githa that try to use her as meat shield.

But she was fortunate enough to survive.

In this life she did not give any chance to her relatives to take charge of her wealth and instead sold it all.

Then she bought number of supplies for her to live well.

Accidentally she found out about this pendent in her past life and now it became her place to store all the things.

But she did not know how to improve the space and stabilize it.

After a year of trial and error she was barely able to repair the warehouses with stagnant time.

She used her wealth to buy the things to repair her warehouse with stagnant time.

This process reduced her wealth.

She stored the stagnant time warehouse with food and water.

Few sets of clothes and necessities were also stored inside based on her planning.

She got some cold weapon and also got a hot weapon through dark channels.

She also exercised to have fit body for the future world of apocalypse.

She did not get a chance to kill her relatives but she was able to kill the people that tried to harm her during the apocalypse.

She found that her family did not die in accident but it was planned by her relatives.

This is like a typical rich lady story where the relatives kill family of the heroine in accident and then they tried to get their wealth of the heroine through underhanded ways.

But the setting changed to apocalypse rebirth with a space.

So things changed.

She wanted her revenge but she is not in a position to get any revenge.

Her relatives are also in the group that came along with her.

That is the reason why she is in disguise most of the time.

She doesn’t want them to recognize her and cause more problems.

……….

After Vicky spoke to her she started to think for a long time and looked at Vicky.

In her previous life she saw Vicky and knows some of his story.

Vicky loved Nisha and Nisha is a typical bitch that loves money and men.

She used Vicky like a servant.

Vicky was threatened to be abandoned and lived at the end of a gun point.

But Vicky survived for a long time.

Also she noticed that Vicky got a big position and Nisha is missing in the group.

She was sure that Vicky killed Nisha and how he did it is none of her business.

She don’t know if she could trust Vicky or not but she was really moved when Vicky gave her the constant temperature cloth.

A cloth like this is not there in the market so she never knew.

She knows how to tailor and make a dress with the cloth.

She wanted to try cooperating with Vicky first and decide later of what stance that she should take towards him.

With that she took the cloth and then took out a tailoring machine from inside her space.

She brought it over just in case if she needed that in the future.

Vicky did not say anything and gave her few types of fabric with each of its own specialty.

Then he told her to add them in a specific order to make a dress.

While she is doing that Vicky went to prepare a room for her to stay.

Well they still have to go to her room to get her things.

Then put on some fans around her to cool the temperature of the place.

It was still early but the temperature is very high.

She was really good at tailoring and she made a dress for her with the same model as Vicky had but in women’s version.

Vicky did not give her too much cloth only worth for 1 person.

They are in cooperation right now and she would store materials for Vicky to use later in return for this dress.

Even with his current expanded space Vicky will not be able to store many things.

So he has to take the support of Radha to store excessive things.

But first she has to repair her warehouse and then add stagnant time later.

Vicky prepared something to eat for them.

This is in the name of forming a group.

After she is done tailoring the dress she put the dress on.

The dress is very close to her body and fits perfectly.

She put on her normal disguise over it.

She felt that her body is not that hot any more.

It was cool like the temperature outside is not 50 degrees instead it was only 30.

This made her shocked.

The thought in her mind is.

“Vicky really trusted her enough to give something so priceless to her.”

So she also wants to become sincere in the cooperation.

Vicky brought her some mutton Biryani and Gulab Jamun for lunch……...

Chapter 44: helping Radha

So she also wants to become sincere in the cooperation.

Vicky brought her some mutton Biryani and Gulab Jamun for lunch and desert and there are some cold drinks too.

She was really shocked by the food Vicky given her.

Vicky proudly told her that this was all cooked by him and asked if she liked his cooking.

Vicky’s cooking is comparable to that of a 5 star hotel chef because of all the practice he put into cooking.

Right now Radha really wanted to become the wife of Vicky to just eat the food cooked by him.

In the last days there are not many people that can cook delicious food like Vicky.

After eating the lunch as breakfast they moved out of this house and went to the area with shopping malls.

They put on a disguise at deserted blind corner.

Then he systematically allowed Radha to let her system extract the materials.

Vicky also extracted the materials they required to improve repair his ark space.

When they left a building the situation of that building is almost broken and damaged state.

Like this they went through various building areas.

At the same time Vicky told Radha to improve her warehouse first and add stagnant time to that.

The entire morning till around the time of noon they are doing this.

During that time Vicky took her to big jewelry stores and other important stores that are originally closed,

But after the system extracted the materials and his lock picking they were able to enter inside and extract more materials.

With this process by the time it was noon the warehouse of Radha was fully repaired and Vicky got some extra refined materials inside his warehouse.

All that was left is to add extra stagnant time to her warehouse space.

But this has to wait for now.

Vicky took her to the reservoir and filled his containers with fresh water from the reservoir.

There is not one here guarding at this time.

The temperature right now is around 62 degrees and it was close to 12 at noon.

The temperature would increase from here and might reach 65 or more during the next three hours after that there would be decline.

This is the best time for stealing things.

Today Vicky has specific goals.

After collecting the water into the new containers and freed containers he and Radha moved.

Radha also has a container to fill so she quickly followed Vicky to fill up her container in her warehouse.

Vicky did not ask or say anything about that.

After that they moved to the location where the food is stored in big warehouses.

There will be security here.

Vicky gave her a mask to put on and the changed their outer dress.

Right now all the roads are empty so they can move quickly on an electric bike that does not make any sound.

When they arrived near the warehouse there are no guards because of the temperature.

There are no security cameras.

The food is mostly stored inside the warehouse and there is a small security room with air conditioning inside the warehouse.

They have decided that the best place to guard things is from the inside.

They are military people and everything is counted.

The private food of those rich people was also stored just like this in secret.

The military is also guarding the food, water and medicine of those rich people here.

Most of the food here should belong to the citizens but it was hoarded by those rich and uses the military with the power they had as political leaders.

Military people cannot show disobedience when the orders are given from the authority.

The military people wanted to help the citizens but they cannot.

This has persisted till the end of extreme summer and after that the world plunged into turmoil.

There are no longer political leaders that controlled the military.

This is what many people thought but even then the things are still the same.

When the bases are set up there are still rich people with private military and weapons in their hands.

Because of that the scattered military personal could not do anything but to work under.

The first base was set up all the way in the north near Agra city where the water from Yamuna River was harvested.

It is not a single base but a cluster base.

That is close from that base there are other bases connecting to the Life Rivers Ganga and Brahmaputra.

Well the connecting countries of these rivers like Pakistan, Bangladesh, china, Tibet, Nepal…also set up bases nearby.

This caused the water skirmishes from time to time.

Unfortunately for them the might of entire country was concentrated in the north completely abandoning the south.

Because of this the other countries that were stretched with scattered bases could not win.

Bangladesh being the country from the same origin came into cooperative relationship.

This is the same with Nepal and Tibet.

Pakistan did not accept the cooperation instead wanted to go to war.

Well if half of the military, weapons and resources of India is still in the south then they might have reached the stalemate.

But the entire army is concentrated in the north and is directly situated in the bases nearby.

So they lost the battle and have to come into cooperative terms.

As for china they made the bases based on provinces.

On the southern side there is only one base and it is also in competitive battle with the military of the neighboring base of their country.

Even though they are united they have more respect towards their general than towards their country head.

Other than that the bases in cooperative relationship helped for getting little extra water resource making things difficult for them.

Finally they lost.

Even if they are lost India or other countries in cooperation with did not move up instead only salvaged few important things and left.

Chapter 45: stealing left and right

Finally they lost.

Even if they are lost India or other countries in cooperation with did not move up instead only salvaged few important things and left.

The problem with India and china in this situation is very simply.

The offer between the two countries is the main difference for their defeat.

The Chinese people asked the weaker country’s bases to change their name and become their vassal base

On the other hand all Indian asked is resource cooperation and trade of resources.

Just because of these simple terms they lost the battle.

Originally the Chinese people are not like that but the years of brainwashing about their superiority has created the current situation.

On the other hands the naive country people in India under the forced rule of British and east India company learnt the dark business way and the wisdom of neutrality.

This was mixed with the knowledge of management taught by Chanakya a polymath in ancient India.

Well this is the first half of the reason and the second half is that the other bases of china are very far from the Himalayas.

Also there are internal differences caused after the apocalypse.

Finally the military took the authority to rule.

Well it is good for their citizens but the result is that their military is severely strained and stretched.

As for the reason why southern part of India is abandoned is because of the floods from the oceans and seas.

The water in the central region is depleted by the power of the hot sun.

At the same time the remaining water is polluted by the flooded water.

Most of the place is already submerged and the people from Srilanka has already joined forces with India and moved up.

The citizens are abandoned but just the families of the rich and powerful people all over the country along with the officials are already amounted 10 percent of the population.

The military and their families added up to another 20 percent of the population.

Finally few lucky and persistent people made up to another 20 percent of the population.

So all in all 50 percent of the population was saved while keeping big amount of food, medicine, weapons and army.

It might look selfish but the survived people have gone through the trails of life and death so they are far more tenacious than any other.

The strong survives is the old saying.

The persistent and tenacious survives is the new saying in the apocalypse.

Even the rich people have to go through life and death.

There are people that want to kill the rich and get their wealth.

They are the first one to bear the burnt in the apocalypse situation.

On the other hand the normal survivors only face other survivors or they form a team to move on.

As for the other countries the situation is similar but there are a few changes.

But some countries are either too greedy or either too liberal causing sever imbalance.

The final result is that during the ice age and the start of mutation many died quickly.

Because of the stretched reserves they died because of internal conflict.

Or they hoarded too much causing the big blow to the ordinary people.

Either way when the ice age started the effects started to show.

Fortunately or unfortunately the death of half of the citizens has let the remaining half survive well and move forward constantly.

Even the food shortage and water shortage only killed another 10 percent of the people leaving over 40 percent survive.

While the other countries had it less or same number due to various reasons.

While thinking Vicky and Radha entered the warehouse with food and water

There are many warehouses like that.

One can easily locate the security room that has its air conditioning on to let the guards live.

There are two guards inside and both of them are asleep.

Well most people became nocturnal.

This is a privately owned warehouse not the military one.

Vicky chose this specifically as he knows that this was from a corrupted big leader that has many good food products, water, medicine and weapons inside.

Everything was packed in air tight packets also the entire warehouse has this special air conditioning to keep it cold here.

The wealthy people would have a personal electrician team for repairing all of this as soon as there is a problem.

Vicky and Radha sneaked inside and went straight to the security room after picking the lock to the security room.

Then Vicky sprayed the sleeping gas and the people fell into deep sleep.

After that Vicky and Radha looked at the materials inside.

They are all deeply packed in boxes.

Vicky told Radha to hoard all the materials like ammunition, weapons, gold, gemstones and valuables that does not require stagnant time.

On the other hand Vicky would hoard the food, water and medicine that need stagnant time.

With the shared work they completely stole all the things.

They found that the things are packed in different packages like all of these things did not belong to single person or power instead they belongs to few powers collectively.

Well Vicky did not care about that.

He did not steal the food or other products that are defective.

Only the good products with long lasting self life are stolen.

Vicky already told Radha what to steal.

Even though she lived in harsh life in the apocalypse she did not seem to be good at stealing things or maybe there are other reasons.

With one place done they moved to the next warehouse and then the next.

Around 4 in the afternoon they came out of the guarded area with their spaces filled with things.

Vicky was fully satisfied with the gains.

On the way they first went to the apartment of Radha and took her things and then they moved around to extract more materials from the old buildings.

Vicky wanted to make the space of Radha……...

Chapter 46: meeting with boss Oba is cancelled

On the way they first went to the apartment of Radha and took her things and then they moved around to extract more materials from the old buildings.

Vicky wanted to make the space of Radha into a time stagnant one too.

Just looking at today’s gains Vicky was very happy for teaming up.

If he was alone then he might not be able to get so many things in such short time.

Well he did not take many things from the military side that would help some of the ordinary citizens.

The things that are taken from the military are sniper rifles, ammunition of sniper rifles and explosives.

Vicky checked the bullet proof vests here and took a few along with the other things.

Today’s harvest is really big.

After returning back to Vicky’s apartment Vicky settled down Radha into one of the bed rooms and he went to his room.

He took out his mini room and connected the air conditioning to rest for a while.

Vicky told Radha that he has to go and meet with his boss later in the night.

He did not tell her to do anything other than exchanging some things from each other and rearranging the things in their spaces.

With that done Vicky rested after eating something.

Radha don’t know how much she can trust Vicky.

So she is on guard all the time.

Vicky slept peacefully after locking his door.

He has already developed the habit of vigilance so even a slightest sound or intent can wake him up from his sleep.

Also his mini room is very strong and hard to break even with bullets.

Well if there are explosives then they can definitely do the damage but Vicky was sure that things would not reach to that point.

He woke up around at 8 in the night and washed up.

Then he came out of the mini room and checked the detection arrangements in the bed room that he made before entering the mini bed room.

All of them are still intact and there are no signs of intrusion.

Vicky came out of his room and found that Radha is already out and waiting for him to come out.

“I am going out to take care of some things and if possible I want to repair the expanded space with stagnant time function.”

Then she took out a lunch box for Vicky and said.

“This is my thank you gift for all the help and support.”

Vicky accepted the lunch box and opened it.

There is rice in one box and the remaining boxes are filled with few types of curries and dall cooked with vegetables and other things.

The smell is so fragrant that Vicky’s stomach growled.

Vicky thanked her and did not ask any questions other than when she would return.

She thought for a while and said that she would be back around 12 in the night.

Vicky nodded his head and Radha left.

After she left Vicky started to check the food with a silver needle just in case.

After confirming that there is no problem he started to eat.

Killing between the key holders of progenitor’s blood is forbidden but if it is poisoning or other things Vicky cannot be sure of the results.

So Vicky has to stay on guard till his trust in her develops.

Well what he said previously is also true.

He trusted her enough to form a team with her.

As for the trust enough to share things is something that should be slowly accepted over time.

Well his habit of not trusting anyone takes time to become normal.

He ate the food happily and praised her cooking.

Well she is not on the same level as him but she is a good cook.

In the future he can teach her cooking if possible.

After thinking some things, he went to meet with boss Oba around at 9 PM in the night.

But boss Oba told them that the meeting is canceled because many warehouses are looted.

It is especially so for the fuels and other important things.

That is Vicky looted large amount of fuels other than filling up his fuel warehouse.

Some of it was stored with Radha too.

Boss Oba told Vicky to meet him again tomorrow.

Since it is like that Vicky returned back to his room and started to exercise with the things he had.

The process of exercising is delicate and systematic.

He learnt many things in the future and he cannot master them all as it was too late.

But right now creating foundation for them is easier and move along with the process is much faster.

He completed his exercise and then went to eat something.

He became hungry after working out for so long.

After that he rested and started to exercise again.

Around 2 AM in the night Radha returned and found that Vicky is exercising.

She only looked for a little while before going back to her room.

Before she left Vicky gave her the lunch box that she gave him and said the minor corrections in the food she cooked to make it more delicious.

After that he told her if she wanted to exercise she can exercise in the living room so that they would not spread the sweat and smell to the bed rooms.

The room did not have any insects as Vicky arranged mesh doors to the entrance.

After a little while Radha put on some exercising dress and started to exercise with her equipment.

The living room is big and had enough space for two people to exercise freely.

She has own set of exercise equipment.

Well in the tight fit exercising dress her curves are really great.

Vicky looked at her for a moment and then continued with his work out.

When it was early in the morning Vicky call it a day and decided to rest after a quick wash…….

Chapter 47: everything is planned out perfectly

Vicky looked at her for a moment and then continued with his work out.

When it was early in the morning Vicky call it a day and decided to rest after a quick wash.

He went back to his room connected the air conditioning to the solar charger and then finished eating something before sleeping.

His apatite has grown little by little over time and he couldn’t help but feeling stronger.

Also his system reported him that his actions has earned him some skills.

He is not in the mood to check them all right now.

So he went straight to sleep.

On the other hand Radha exercised a little more and she did the same as Vicky.

Vicky woke up in the evening of the next day and checked the alarm arrangements before washing his face.

Then he ate something and came out of his room.

Radha did not wake up yet so he went to arrange his things first and thought of how to use the time before meeting with boss Oba.

While he is planning Radha came out and her eyes were red.

It seems like she has a hard time sleeping.

Vicky asked her and she told that she did not adapt to the new place.

Obliviously Vicky did not believe that as a survivor that survived for over 8 years should be able to sleep at any kind of place.

But Vicky did not question her back and then he told her that he is going to the meeting with his boss.

As for the contents of the meeting Vicky briefly explained it to her and asked if she has any thoughts of going along as a scout.

For a reason Vicky really don’t want her to go as a scout.

The reason is very simply, other people or those bigwigs might think Radha is the weakness of Vicky and cause some problems if things are not right.

But Vicky did not say anything about that.

Radha said that she would think about that.

Vicky told her to take some rest and don’t exercise much to relive her red sleepy eyes.

After that he left.

Vicky did not go straight to boss Oba instead he went to some old buildings to extract more materials.

Finally around 9 PM Vicky came to boss Oba.

They then went to another apartment complex and went to a meeting.

There are political leaders and other big people present in the room.

Other than that there are other candidates and confidents.

After they came in they started to speak about moving north to the central area.

They spoke about the construction of bases there and the military all over the country would be moving north completely abandoning south.

With the topic the discussion started.

Each had their own proposition.

This is not the only political party but there are other political parties too.

They are also planning to move up soon.

As for the military they would move after when they received the call from the bases after they are built.

So these political leaders are going to move on their own.

The scientists at the center have already checked and the reason for this extreme heat is unknown.

Till the reason was found the heat would continue.

Even if the reason is removed the consequences would be unknown.

So they have reported to move up so that they can enter into the vast land above rather than stay at the sea shore.

Till then they are building bases close to the big rivers reservoirs.

If the things are okay after finding the reason the people can move back and rebuild.

If things are unknown and disastrous then they would move up to find stable place.

They did not go through all the confusion and made a simple choice.

Now without the support of military the politicians, mafia bosses, big business men, higher civil officials……..formed groups to move up.

The discussion went on for a long time before they decided to move on in 2 months.

The scouting party will be decided based on the preferences of the leaders and capabilities of the people.

Vicky was also one of the candidates for the scouting party.

Their destination is Agra.

Each candidate is making suggestions and when it was Vicky’s turn he directly took out a map of India and the pointed at 10+ places on the route to reach all the way to Agra.

The he explained about the water resources and area for shelter around those places.

Fortunately India has too many temples and temples have cottages for staying.

Also the temples are mostly on the side of the river or a water source.

The explanation that Vicky gave is so detailed that the people listened to it was astounded.

Well the first question they asked is how Vicky knows about all of this.

Vicky simply pointed at boss Oba and said.

“I am working in tourism and trading company under boss Oba.

I have developed a habit of finding most of the details of every place I visited.

I had this hobby of visiting some rare and spiritual places like temples and rivers.

So I noted all these things.

Since I understand the situation from boss Oba yesterday I guessed that people wanted to move up north from here.

The best possible places are the rivers with big cities.

So I calculated till Agra last night and marked them on the map I salvaged from a book store.

Well this is my analysis.

If leaders wanted to have a look then following this map would reduce the time required for searching and exploring….”

Vicky’s words made the people look at him with greed.

In a world where we don’t know having a person like Vicky to plan things is like having a readymade building when you are still looking for a suitable site.

All of them wanted to take Vicky into their groups and immediately the value of Vicky…….

Chapter 48: the reason

In a world where we don’t know having a person like Vicky to plan things is like having a readymade building when you are still looking for a suitable site.

All of them wanted to take Vicky into their groups and immediately the value of Vicky increased by a large margin.

At the same time some of them are suspicious if the locations that Vicky marked on the map are correct or not.

So they have decided to send a scouting party with the people from all groups to check the situation.

Vicky doesn’t mind and Vicky was not in the scouting team.

Actually it was boss Oba that negotiated and sent Mobo in place of check things out.

He feared that the other party might kill Vicky because of various reasons.

Since Vicky is not going out on a search he took leave and returned back.

The offers were given to Vicky from various big people and finally Vicky accepted the offer of the big political leader that his boss Oba supported.

This big political leader has the support of powerful mafia boss and some of the officials.

So this is the best way to resolve things.

With that Vicky will not be pursued by anyone.

After that Vicky returned back to his room with extra materials on hand.

These are the rewards for choosing new side.

When Vicky returned he found that Radha was exercising with a knife in extreme aggressive manner.

If Vicky was not careful then he would have got stabbed by her.

Her eyes are still red and she looked more haggard.

Vicky felt that the things are not right.

So he decided to look into the matter.

He cannot have a partner that has unstable mentality during the apocalypse.

He asked her to stop her exercise and then sit down to have some cold tea.

“Radha, you look sad, sleepless and haggard.

You are not like this a few days ago.

So tell me what happened.

If it is something that I can help you with then I will definitely help.

Sharing burdens is what we formed our team for.”

Listening to Vicky’s words she finally burst into tears and started to explain about the incident when she went out along.

During that night in the suburbs she went to extract materials from the construction buildings.

At that time she met her friend that helped in her previous life here.

This woman came from the same place as Radha.

She came all the way here with her boyfriend.

Well Radha did ask her if she wanted to come with her but she rejected Radha’s offer and came along with her boyfriend.

This boyfriend of her friend is a lackey of her enemy Vishrant.

If the enemies of Radha that is Vishrant and Githa were still alive then the things would not have deteriorated to this level so quickly.

Right now her boyfriend has tricked her and took her to some local mafia to get some food and water in exchange for her to service those thugs with her body.

Radha found out too late and only saw the body of her fried that committed suicide to preserve her dignity.

Those beasts like thugs and her boyfriend did not even let her corpse to have dignity.

She only found out when those thugs are talking about the entire incident while she is extracting the building materials.

The body of her friend was left as an unidentified corpse the military people has burnt it along with other corpses that piled up everywhere during this apocalyptic time.

This incident caused her to blame herself for killing her enemies early causing the death of her friend indirectly.

Because of this she is sad.

Vicky immediately pulled her closure to console her.

“Radha it is not your fault and the death of your friend is caused by her choice.

I cannot bring her back from death but I can help you get revenge on those thugs and her boyfriend.

The revenge can be the most painful one.

Honestly, I think that avenging your friend is the best way of paying debt to your friend.

She chose to go with her boyfriend even after you offered to help her.

Since she made the choice it has nothing to do with you.

As for killing your enemies, you did what you have to do at the best possible time.

So don’t cry.”

Vicky did not take advantage of Radha and only patted on her back while hugging and consoling her.

She calmed down after some time.

She has already made her decision to kill those people to avenge her friend.

For this very reason she is practicing her knife skills for action in the night.

She doesn’t want to involve Vicky in this matter.

So she plans to give the resources back to Vicky and then leave here to fight.

Reading her thoughts Vicky smiled and said.

“Do you really think that I would let you go so easily?

There are two reasons why I want to partner up with you.

First is that you are similar to me having the key to the progenitor’s ark.

Second reason is that I liked your nature.

Even in the previous life I figured out that Nisha is using me but I can only follow her to survive.

At that time I saw you and you did everything without losing yourself to measly benefits and sell yourself.

You tried to help other people within your limits even though you are under the hands of others.

When things got unreasonable you directly left the group and was able to survive in this cruel world on your own for your dignity.

This is the thing I loved in you at that time.

I really wanted to escape from that bitch Nisha and live by myself.

But some things are quite different at that time.

This life I took everything into my hands and will not let…….”

Chapter 49: revenge

“…But some things are quite different at that time.

This life I took everything into my hands and will not let go of my life into other people’s hands.

At the same time I want you to be safe.

I don’t know why by I really don’t want anything to happen to you.

Also I don’t want you to lose your strong spirit.

Well there are few women in my past life that made me look up to them.

You are one of them.

So don’t do anything alone.

I am your partner and I will be by your side through all of that….”

Vicky’s words really pulled her heart string a little and her sadness is also there.

This time she really hugged Vicky deeply.

Then they got ready to attack.

Vicky told her his plan after getting to know the location of those thugs.

Then they moved out.

Their first target is her dead friend’s boyfriend.

He is currently trying to pester someone for food.

Vicky and Radha put on their disguises.

They first knocked out this person with a hit on his head.

No one came forward to help him looking at the masked individuals.

Well this kind of things happened many times during the apocalypse time.

So they did not dare to get close.

At the same time they cannot call cops or military as the phones are not working.

Vicky dragged the person along and packed him up in a bag.

Then they moved away in a car.

The car is an off road car and it looked new making many people jealous.

Vicky drove the car to the abandoned dry fields outside the city in the suburbs.

The location of the group of thugs is also on the same direction.

When they came near the area Vicky took out tranquilizer guns from the space and got ready to shoot.

He gave a tranquilizer gun to Radha.

Then they started to shoot at the thugs from the dark.

Well not all of them are at the same place.

There seems to be a leader to this small time group that is playing with women.

With every shot one person would fall into unconscious state.

There is not even time for shouting.

Radha did not shoot as she is not proficient with a gun and aiming it.

So she helped Vicky load darts in to the tranquilizer guns.

Naturally the tranquilizer guns can only hold 3 darts.

Radha would collect the darts from the people that are hit and new ones will be loaded for Vicky to shoot.

This process went on as they knocked out more than 50 thugs before reaching the room where the boss is playing with some women.

Also there are other women in captive.

Vicky quickly shot the boss and saved the woman that was in tears with torn dress.

Radha helped the woman cover up while Vicky went around the base to check another time.

He found few more people that are trying to play with some women.

Vicky knocked them all over and then let all the women gather around outside after putting on their dresses.

In the previous thugs that Vicky shot not all of them belong to this gang.

Some of them came here bringing their woman to earn some food for themselves.

Well Vicky is not a god to save all these women so he let them group up in the big hall first.

Then he went to look for the materials collected by the boss.

There are loads of gold and jewels in metal safes.

Vicky collected them all first.

Then he found food, water and other necessities.

Vicky looked around and took the things that he needed like spices, beverages and other rare things.

Then he came back to the main hall and said to the women that are being consoled by Radha.

“There is food, water and other necessities in those rooms.

You can have them all and start your new lives.

I will not take your things.

But these thugs needed to be punished.

So I am going to take them with me now.

Vicky said and packed all the thugs into gunny bags and stored them in a truck parked in the garage of this building.

Radha followed Vicky and left along.

She knows that Vicky has already taken what needed to be taken and left the things that are needed to be left.

The women have to make their own choice now.

Then he drove the truck to the industrial area where they extracted materials last time.

The building has already collapsed and there are iron sheets everywhere.

Vicky carried the men out and tied them to the metal poles in the area.

They were placed on metal sheets and their pants were removed.

They are in for a punishment that they would remember in their next lives.

Vicky never liked people that forcibly take a woman and have her.

If that woman is a bitch and she is willing then Vicky would not care.

But the current situation is different.

Vicky tied all these people on these iron sheets with their naked butts on the iron sheets.

Tomorrow they are going to be fried alive.

Radha personally pulled the boyfriend of her friend and tied him to the pole.

Well Vicky did not let her pull his pants and he helped her do that.

After that Vicky used ammonia bottle to wake the people here up.

When they woke up they started to curse, shout, threaten, beg and do all sorts of things.

Vicky used iron chains to tie them so they cannot break free no matter what they shouted.

Radha went to deal with her friend’s boyfriend.

On the other hand Vicky came to the front of the boss of this gang and gave a severe beating forming stamps all over his face.

Then he questioned the boss man about other gangs like them, threatening him about the sun that was……...

Chapter 50: horrible punishment to horrible people

On the other hand Vicky came to the front of the boss of this gang and gave a severe beating forming stamps all over her face.

Then he questioned the boss man about other gangs like them, threatening him about the sun that was about to rise.

Immediately he found that there is another gang in another area nearby.

But today they cannot make it to them.

So they have decided to take care of that group tomorrow.

For now they are going to watch these people receive the punishment as hell before dying.

Vicky moved away from here to a high raised place.

Radha followed after she is done with her dead friend’s boyfriend.

She did not have any sympathy towards these people.

When the sun started to raise the heat started to rise at an alarming pace.

After an hour the temperature is already 45 degrees.

The iron sheets under the people started to heat up.

The people started to scream in pain as their legs are being burnt.

The process is slowly and after another hour the screams became howls of pain as the burns reached third degree with the temperature reaching 55 degrees.

Radha watched them die slowly in pain.

They are wearing constant temperature clothing that let them stand this high temperature easily.

This went on for another hour before Vicky suggested that they should leave to Radha.

Radha broke into crying again and Vicky stopped her from crying as it was too high temperature causing some problems to the eyes.

So he took her to the car in his embrace.

They will come back here in the evening to collect the chains that are used to tie these people.

They can be used again later and some other places.

When they are returning Radha was silent and when they came to the vicinity of their building they stored the car back and covered their appearance.

Then they went back to their room.

Radha sat in the sofa on the hall while Vicky arranged the air conditioning things for them.

Vicky did not receive any message from Mobo or boss Oba.

So Vicky doesn’t have to go out anywhere.

He sat by the side of Radha and waited for her to calm her emotions.

He did not enter the room he has given to her to switch on air conditioning for her or anything.

He respected her privacy so he would not intrude into her room.

Vicky took out some tea and chocolate cake for them to eat.

The room cooled down after putting 6 air conditioners around them

They can work with the help of the solar panels that Vicky arranged.

Vicky gave her a piece of cake and then said.

“The world is a cruel place after the beginning of the apocalypse.

One must bear the consequences of one’s actions.

Your friend chose her boyfriend as her companion and paid the price.

If she moved on with you may be she would be alive.

But that is her choice but not yours.

You did everything you can to help her but she did not listen.

Now that she is gone you have avenged her.

I can be sure that your friend would be happy for your actions.

So don’t be sad.

Eat the cake and cheer up.

I don’t like my companion to be sad and crying.

See you look ugly when you are crying.”

Vicky said and took out a mirror to show the appearance of her face.

Radha finally calmed down and she smiled.

They are the cake and drank the tea.

After that they each went back to their rooms to rest.

They are exhausted and wanted to rest.

The sleep time is not long as they woke up in the evening.

After washing up Vicky started eating south Indian thali.

Then he came out of the room.

Radha is still sleeping so he did not disturb her instead returned back to his room and study some of his future plans.

There is a solar heater on the side that is making hot water that was needed in the future.

At the same time there is a fridge that is making ice cubes on the side.

The ice cubes are used for air conditioning fans and hot water is preparation for the future ice age.

Around 7 PM Radha woke up and came out.

She did not looked as haggard as she was before.

After she came out Vicky asked if she wanted to drink some coffee.

She nodded her head.

Vicky and Radha shared coffee as Vicky explained the situation where they will be on the move soon.

Then they started to practice as Vicky taught her some things and she learnt it well.

Well she also knows some underhanded techniques and told Vicky.

As they practiced Vicky received notifications that he started to master fighting techniques and weapon techniques.

In a way they became his skills and started to improve over the long practice.

The system gave notification of improvement of skill from time to time after he got the system.

Well, keeping track of things like skills is a good thing.

During this time his stats also increased to their forties.

Vicky became stronger than he previously was.

That night they went to kill another gang and free up people.

They people were also brought to the same location where the other gang members died and used the same chain of the dead people to tie them.

Vicky got some good amount of materials from these people other than leaving them for those victims.

The thugs that were tied here yesterday were fried and the corps looked like it was dried for 10 days.

The stench is unbearable.

Fortunately there are gas masks.

After tying the people Vicky left and decided to leave these chains.

Any way he got a big chain after salvaging things.

The gold and other materials he salvaged were divided in half and it was given to Radha.
