Chapter 24 - Meeting Celestial Being (3)

So the meeting was held, taking about 1 hour, the entire course of the rest of the meeting was spent discussing the terms of the 5 year agreement.

The Jedi Order implemented 1 more condition, the condition is that the assignment is not only to search for force sensitive children but also for any pertinent assignment that the Jedi Order may have in the future 5 years from now, those additional assignments will be paid according to the difficulty of the assignment.

They also agreed that the starships would be as large as the frigate they went to get the first time and would have special defense squadrons designed for transporting the force-sensitive children they would be collecting in the future, as there would be problems and outside interference in the course of the assignment, so Demetrios promised to raise the defenses on those assignments.

The meeting came to an end, Demetrios and Viggo said goodbye to Masters Yoda, Yaddle and Mace Windu, as well as Jedi Knights Coleman Trebor and Sifo-Dyas.

After the meeting Demetrios was busy managing Celestial Being, and had the Silver race with the Bronze race leave the Main Base.

He built 10 squadrons with them, which would be the defense squadrons, there would be 10 members of the Silver race commanding each squadron, and each squadron had 100,000 of the Bronze race.

He also built a special squadron made for the attack with 3 of the Gold race and 100 of the Bronze race.

Meanwhile Yoda, Yaddle and Mace Windu upon arriving at the Jedi Temple, said goodbye to Coleman Trevor and Sifo-Dyas, and the 3 Jedi Masters called a meeting of the Jedi High Council.

When calling a meeting of the Jedi High Council, of the 12 seats, 4 could not come to Coruscant, instead of being present they showed up with a hologram that showed their full body in their corresponding seats.

-We are doing this meeting of the Jedi High Council, we already had our meeting with Demetrios of Celestial Being - Mace Windu said starting the meeting.

-What is he like? - Yarael Poof said curiously

-Before talking about the Chief and Grand General of Celestial Being, let's talk about the agreement we have with Celestial Being - Yaddle said

-We have an agreement with them - Yoda

-They accepted our agreement, now we can find and select Force-sensitive children more quickly - said the Cosian Jedi Master Tera Sinube happily.

-Not only that, our agreement for the commissioned work was for 2 years, but Mr. Demetrios changed it to 5 years - Yaddle

-Mm!! That's much better, but did he put any conditions? - Yarael Poof

-No, he didn't put any additional conditions, we put an additional condition - Mace Windu

-What is the condition they added? - said Jedi Master Jocasta Nu.

-The condition is that we can give them more assignments outside of the agreement for the search for children, but those assignments must be pertinent, that is, not excessive or we think that they work for us and send them as we want - Mace Windu

-What is the difference? - Even Piell

-The difference lies in that it is an agreement, we must take them as partners, not as workers that we hire, emphasized their boss Demetrios - Yaddle - In addition, we added more security, we wanted all their assignments regarding the search for children to be with ships as large as the first one they used when making the assignment and with sufficient protection, in addition they would have an additional defense squadron to safely transport the force-sensitive children, since in the course of 1 month with them, someone spread that we worked with them in the search for force-sensitive children and we had many incidents with bounty hunters and pirates to say that they were just coincidences.

-So we made a 5-year agreement to search for children with a group of mercenaries called Celestial Being, they are reliable in that search - Said Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi - and what about their boss? What is he like? What did you get from the meeting you had with him in person?

-He is calm, speaking more directly I would have to compare his attitude to a wasp's nest, he is calm but if you annoy him he will attack with everything - Said Yaddle - in terms of thoughts he is revolutionary, he says that our philosophy of letting go of all attachments is deficient.

-Yes, we let go of attachment is more likely to go to the dark side he said - Yoda

-I had never thought about it like that, for me detachment leads you to not be afraid - Tyvokka

-He says that paternal affection can lead to us not being afraid, and that the death of your parents is a biological concept and when one experiences it one becomes stronger and with stronger convictions - Yaddle

-Also that we want to protect something helps us to have more devotion in trying to protect it - Yaddle

-It's quite a revolutionary idea - Ki-Adi-Mundi

-What is your power like? How did you learn about the force and the handling of the lightsaber? - Oppo Rancisis

-Unfortunately we do not know but in terms of power, he had a small argument with Master Mace Windu, let him say it - Yaddle

-He is quite strong, when he used the force, I can not move a millimeter, barely with all my strength I could slightly move my body and the result was that others perceived me as if I were shaking - Mace Windu the more he remembered their confrontation which is more to say it as a small disagreement.

At that moment Mace Windu had cold sweat running down his back, what he perceived when he wanted to confront Demetrious was very different from Master Yoda and Master Yaddle

Master Mace Windu being from the planet Haruun Kal, a human but with a transformation in the force through said planet, Mace Windu perceives things differently, he can see images and illusions of people in those illusions he could see the life or important events both past and future of that person, from there he developed his greatest ability the breaking point.

Mace Windu sensed a monster that wanted to conquer the galaxy and leave everything in chaos, but he kept that to himself.

(For now we have to keep an eye on him and if he wants to do something bad, stop him at all costs, even if it costs me my life) - Mace Windu thought - (at least he pays attention to words, I have to get someone from the Jedi Council to be close to him)

He looked at the entire Jedi Council and only two people occurred to him: Yarael Poof or Yaddle, being his choices because the only ones who are friendlier with strangers.

-So it's enough to leave Jedi Master Mace Windu with no option to resist with his telekinesis - Ki-Adi-Mundi

-How will we proceed this time? He can be the most dangerous person as well as the most beneficial - Jocasta Nu

Everyone on the Jedi Council nodded, knowing that he was able to render Master Mace Windu motionless, who also knows the breaking point that allows him to break free from any movement they want to use on him, but they also know that the technology their organization has, such as their military discipline, can be beneficial to them as a Jedi Order.

-I want one of the Jedi Council to be in constant contact with Celestial Being or more likely to have a friendship with Demetrios - Mace Windu said decisively.

-Who are you thinking of doing that with? - Tyvokka said

-I have 2 people in mind, but it's better to opt for someone who already knew him, Yaddle, can you be the connection between the Jedi Order and Celestial Being or more explicitly between the Jedi Council and Demetrios? - Mace Windu

-... you leave me surprised, but thinking about it, it is better to go myself than to leave it to anyone else, besides I already deduce a little of the personality that he has, I would work towards him never becoming an enemy of the Jedi Order - said Yaddle accepting Mace Windu's request

-Thank you Master Yaddle - Mace Windu bowed towards Yaddle

Thus the meeting that the Jedi High Council had ended.

Demetrios never thought that this encounter would decide the change of the old mentality of the Jedi Order, opening up to another future.

On level 2832 in the Celestial Being building, on the top floor of the Grand General's office, sitting in his office was Demetrios and near him was another table and seat where Viggo was working

Demetrios was reviewing the paperwork left in his absence and which Viggo was in charge of.

Demetrios stopped reviewing and focused on a sheet

-I see that we are in deficit of money - Demetrios

-That's right, and we will be like this for at least 1 year but only because we are completely rebuilding the level, and we are encouraging recruiting personnel in all areas, both here and in the 3 bases, the only one that is not in deficit is the Main Base, since it is self-sustaining - Viggo

Demetrios took out of his inventory 4 cards each one said Credits, with a figure of 1,000,000,000,000 each of the cards.

-Here, this is for the building and the 3 bases - said Demetrios passing Viggo the 4 cards.

-Understood sir, I will send the other 3 to the bases - Viggo

-When will the 5 escort squadrons and the special attack squadron arrive? - Demetrios

-It will take them a short time to arrive, they arrive in 20 minutes, thanks to their species traits their travel in hyperspace is much faster than ours - Viggo

-Excellent, tell the Jedi Order that in 1 hour the fleet will leave for the assignment, they have to decide in which quadrant they will search - Demetrios

-Understood, sir - said Viggo occupying his Omnitools sending the message that Demetrios just transmitted to the others so they can contact the Jedi Order.

Then Demetrios gets up from his chair, turns around, takes a few steps, approaches the window, and as he looks at it he marvels at how splendid the new level 2832 of Coruscant is turning out.

-You know Viggo, you've done well - said Demetrios thanking Viggo.

Viggo, upon hearing this, stopped what he was doing and knelt down.

-Thank you for trusting me, sir! - said Viggo shouting with emotion.

Demetrios was surprised at how Viggo had reacted.

He took out 3 cards from his inventory, 1 of them had 1,000,000 IG-86 Sentinel Droids, another had 1,000,000 Skytroopers droids and the other 100,000,000,000 Bacta Jars

Demetrios turned around and approached Viggo

-You'll have to continue like this, also take -said Demetrios passing him the 3 cards- put the droids patrolling this entire level, this way the security will increase, there will always be people who think of bad acts, we need this level to be completely safe and controlled by Us.

Viggo stood up from where he was kneeling, he received the 3 cards.

-Understood, sir, what about the Bacta jars? - said Viggo

-Sell them at a low price to those who need them at this level and also to those who want to be recruited and are sick or injured, the others sell them at the normal price to mercenaries and anyone who wants them - said Demetrios

-Understood -Viggo

-I will go now to the Nexus of the Force, I don't know how long I will be there, in my absence Tarkin II and you Viggo, will have the rank of provisional General and will be the only 2 with that rank until I return, you will command Celestial Being, Tarkin II does not need it but you do, I need you to learn the 3 books so that nothing bad happens when you are not there, suspect 2 people mainly, Senator Sheev Palpatine and Hego Damask II, if someone comes from the Senate of the Republic or the InterGalactic Banking Clan suspect that they come from them 2.

-But accept their orders, we are mercenaries we have a paramilitary label that is why we do not steal, sabotage or kill anyone who does not has to do with the assignments that have been pointed out to us, make it clear to the new recruits - Demetrios

-Also if the political group needs any support in terms of Credits, give them, by my order they have free rein until they are well positioned in the Galactic Senate - Demetrios

-Understood, I will do what corresponds to everything you pointed out - said Viggo.

-Now I entrust you with a mission, your mission Viggo in my absence is that the name of Celestial Being spreads throughout the Galaxy, that it has a prestige and respect that no mercenary group has had, that it is an important part of the Republic, that will be your job Viggo and that of Tarkin II - said Demetrios, opening a portal of the Shadows.

-I wish you luck sir - said Viggo bowing to Demetrios.

Demetrio smiled.

-I hope you have everything in order, if any clandestine organization bothers you, get rid of them, make it clear that no one messes with Celestial Being - said Demetrios entering the Shadow portal.
