Chapter 142 - Irrational Games 2

The assault on the Underground Fighting club turned nothing, Military Police did not find any trace of RMS's involvement Ichiro let Nakajo Tomotaki, the sole member of the Royal society escaped, though he accomplished his part of his scheme just like Akagi.

Nevertheless, the assault led Brittonia Imperium into another dead-end, knowing the RMS is plotting against the empire, as the new Mutant Emperor leading the Mutants race.

Regardless Brittonia, unaware of the identity of the new Emperor, neither the Imperium know about the basic of operation RMS called "The Realms".

The Capricorn Union, (another idealist vigilante Mutant faction) know where the Kingdom in TYZ located and since they possessed the Platinum Sceptre the Capricorn Union try to reclaim the Throne, allegedly the leader of the Capricorn Union, Scarecrow claims that his former master and friend, Akito Shakin: was the last Mutant Emperor and he chose him to his successor.

Royal Mutant Society's monarchy runs as the Emperor handpicked, chosen or leave a Will to the Lords of Valhallal to select their successor, Scarecrow, his new finance and his Second in Command Maxim firmly believed that he will the Emperor and the power will bring the all Mutants together Fight Brittonia and peaceful if possible and save innocent Mutants from The Imperium of Brittonia Empire.

Their primary goal is to create a world where both humans and Mutants can live together peacefully. Their first plan to achieve this is to bring the Platinum Sceptre to the table by force, in order to negotiate Brittonia about peace treaty but first they must get RMS in their side.

After travelling inside a Chinese Restaurant in the West-Red Zone, The Capricorn reached in a passageway they believed would take them to the RMS's capital in TYZ. While walking straight into the dark pathway, Mutants of Capricorn feel nothing except silent and emptiness with disembodied screams echoing through the long empty narrow path, along with footsteps and unseen grasping hands pulling people into the grim, shadowy corners of the very places where many rotten smelly corpses and skeletons present beside them.

While being uncomfortable about the place, Maxim asked his leader Scarecrow,

"You sure that is the path to the capital? Looks like we travelled into the hell."

"Yes, I am sure, RMS's capital is hidden beneath this great city, obviously its harder to find it."

If possible, Capricorn Union avoids the horrors lining up here and there like an ancient graveyard, children found dead in few corners' bones of their arms, legs, thighs, ere successively snapped... The head appeared dashed to pieces...The blood thrown about like water from a twirled mop.

"Caledonia, RMS's main kingdom in TYZ's, the new Emperor is not delighted with you, threating their position."

While holding their breath by the help of cloth, Maxim reminded him about their mission by which Scarecrow replied,

"That's why I tend to use the Sceptre, put an end to those usurpers reigning over the Maha Throne, Shakin-san sacrifice his life to claim me the Emperor, after Victor X betrayed him."

"True, but we aren't the members like our friends we don't know how the Mutants Society works. Beside Helecter's member, Freddy or Frederick proposed us to return the Sceptre if we save ourselves from the Imperium's Military."

"How selfish of you, if we hand over the Sceptre, there are numerous suffering Mutants, imagine how much they'd suffer from the Empire's hypocrisy saving ourselves wouldn't resolved the main problem."

"Huh, you always have an empathetic mind Kaseko, a noble, gentle heart."

It's seemed the leader of the Capricorn Union, Scarecrow, aka Kaseko claims the right to the Throne and reveal his second in Command, Maxim to this fact, as he suffered in an abusive childhood, Kaseko loth the idea of solitude, a true believer of the concept of good always triumphs! Hence, he intends to build a better place in TYZ for his family and friends, nevertheless they weren't achieved anything until they reach the prime capital of Royal Mutants Society.

"What the hell, there supposed to be an entry to the Caledonia?"

Capricorn was beyond shock when they exited the pathway and reached a Shipyard in southern TYZ with lots of shipping containers lying around.

"Looking for the real entrance of Caledonia?"

Capricorn's shakiness breaks when the Helecters captain Katsuo Ogomi come out from one of the shipping containers walked towards the Capricorn men with an unpleasant mood.

"What are you doing in here?"

"The Maha Throne, we here to claim the title of the Emperor of Mutants, please lead us to Caledonia."

"Hahaha, hahaha!!!"

Always stoic, serious Ogomi laughed unstoppably after Kaseko proposed their arrival. That confused Kaseko, who questioned Ogomi,

"Did I say something funny?"

"No, but It amusing me how foolish you people can be, The Emperor already elected, she shall guide the Mutants race to salvation."

"Not after we claim the Platinum Sceptre?"

"Huh?"

Kaseko seem confident from the start since he has the Sceptre, the tool to command the denizens of RMS. He revealed and waved the shiny Sliver Sceptre at Ogomi, however the Sceptre don't show effects and that extremely shocked both Kaseko and Maxim.

"What's the matter? Don't know how to use it."

Ogomi casually taunts the Capricorn as they unable to use the Mutant Emperor's Platinum Sceptre.

"You cannot use the Sceptre because you are not the successor, the Blood is required to activate the Sceptre, it is a form of the Will, The Emperor have to store the blood of their next Successor to complete their will, Amira as far as I know is a loser who dreamt about becoming the Emperor one day, he's dead like a pathetic loser like you, whitehead dimwit."

"Don't insult my Kaseko!"

"Maxim, No!"

The sardonic insult was enough to enraged Maxim, he rants uncontrollably, run over to attack Ogomi with his long range Noryoku unleashed upon him.

"That wouldn't help much."

Without a flinch, Ogomi caught Maxim's three-edge chain Noryoku within his arm and pulled Maxim towards him.

"Whoa!"

Maxim gets pulled by Ogomi's strong force and landed on his Noryoku shield which Ogomi manifested right after the fight begun.

"What the fuck!?"

Maxim was shocked once he glanced at Ogomi's shield, one humanoid eye and mouth manifested on Black and Red Biomass shield.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!"

"Fuck!!!"

The mouth of Ogomi's shield produce a massive loud screaming, a special kind of ability to threw Maxim away by his sound wave.

"Maxim, we need to retreat, gather our forces and hit harder."

"That's useless if you ask me."

"Ahhh who is this!?!"

"Your Samesty."

Capricorn's plan of again attack were foiled once they gaze upon the white hair woman standing in front of the same container once Ogomi came out, smiling at them.

"Your seat in the Maha Throne is booked Capricorn Union, better to surrender the Sceptre now or the Brittonia took it from you, beside you will never find Caledonia because only true believer of the RMS may find the sacred city."

"Your Samesty, why have you come here!? I can handle it—"

"I know you will Ogomi, but as the new Mutant Emperor, I shall lead my misguided subjects."

The fight was momentarily stopped because the Capricorn were again shock when they found out that, the Same white hair girl whom was pulling the strings from the very beginning has revealed herself as the new Mutant Emperor or Empress.

At this moment, she appear to be mid-twenties woman with very long white-yellow hair passing her hips, inhumanly beautiful and extraordinary woman without doubt yet her alluring mysteries still unsolved about how can she transformed her body into a small child when she has being saved by Akagi Shinsuke at the start and how she transformed herself into a monstrously mutated Dragon-like beast.

"So, you are the usurper? Claim yourself as the leader of the Mutant kind."

By Scarecrow/Kaseko's accusation, the White-haired woman named Eliza, now a full-fledged adult with bouncy buxom chuckled, utterly amused to Capricorn's naivety,

"Usurper? Please, the real 18th Mutant Emperor did not leave any wills or the successors, as an oldest member of the Royal Mutants Society I took charge to the Throne and vowed to protect the Mutant kind against the Empire through the rising Crusade."

"It's wrong, to put the innocent people at risk to accomplished your goals, to help yourself."

"Don't be naive Capricorn, that's how the game has played, this very simple aphorism can be used by every man of virtually any level of intelligence. Whether it's the thug with a club or a super genius with a weapon of mass destruction it is the same. Their power justifies whatever it is they do."

"Fuck you bitch!"

"No Maxim!"

In anger Maxim again try to attack the antagonists but calm Kaseko stopped him at the right moment.

"What?"

"We cannot stop them taking the Throne, neither we can use the Sceptre, best alternative is to get down into negotiations with Frederick, handing over the Sceptre in charge get security from the Empire, beside Tanya is pregnant, I just found out before we went out for that, I don't want any more threats to my girlfriend or my child, understand?"

Maxim deeply thought about Kaseko's concern about his family, nevertheless he doesn't want to back down but the desperate circumstance they decided to flee, seek a better offer for their family and friends.

"We will go but we don't hand over the Sceptre it belongs to us."

The Capricorn withdraw from the TYZ's Shipping yard, hoping a validation from Freddy, the Helecter's former doctor whom was send by Mick Gustav to retrieved it and Mikoto/Mike was send by Ogomi. In a way Ogomi knew the Sceptre will on its way back to him hence he did not protest letting the Capricorn.

However little that the know one Brittonia's surveillance drone caught the footages of their meets and they intend to find Capricorn Union's hideout.
