Mafia Kingdom Aka Rise Of A Teenage Drug Baron - Chapter 13

*splash*

The cold water dripping down Hagan’s face as he sees the reflection of him in the mirror. The reflection is the visage that he had seen throughout his life, but today it looks subtly different. Hagan has always been a child of curiosity, but not today. There is only one thought in his heart and soul at the moment.

‘Whatever it takes…’

A simple phrase, but that is the difference between the spineless whiners and the valiant. No amount of argument, morals, righteousness, or reasons nets you the effectivity that is brought forth with the act of the one who was consumed by the heavenly will of making his demands happen.

Whatever it takes, wherever the road leads, at the cost of whatever needed, with the sacrifice of everything, the valiant paves the way!

His blood will mark the path for those who walk behind, the bones act as the guard rails that stubbornly resists the smidgen of hope from disappearing.

The flesh as sustenance for the allies, and bait for the foes.

The valiant makes strides that the meek can never fathom.

Always a step forward, always with a cost, despite being fully in the known.

Hagan walks out only to find Mr. Liu standing at the door. Men of character talk with gallant banter that thunder the chamber and the walls or they only share a look to understand and make the other to deduce. Hagan and Mr. Liu had nothing to say to each other, a short gaze is enough.

“Thank you for everything, Mr. Liu.”

Saying his piece Hagan started to walk away, only to be held back by the hand of Mr. Liu over his shoulders.

With an inquisitive stare at the downtrodden Mr. Liu, Hagan waited for him to speak up.

“I must look pathetic in your eyes.”

“Mr. Liu, I never…”

“I know. But that does not change what I’ve become today. All these years I felt that the position had as a law officer meant something. I thought it is only because we allowed that the crime rate ran rampant. I now know, it is the other way in this town. The law exists at least in the name because it was allowed to…”

“…”

“As a law officer, I pledged to protect this town. I failed.”

“As a friend, I pledged to your father to protect his family. I failed.”

“As a man, I pledged to die standing, rather than live with my knees bent…”

“…I failed…”

“However, don’t think all hope is lost. Your father is an exceptional man. He is the one that I admired as a friend, as a father, and as a role model. I remember you saying that your father was a man of principles and that it got him killed. You can never understand the agony of the days remaining of those who chose life over ideals.”

“Mr. Liu, I don’t know what to say…”

“Don’t try to console this decrepit old man. If time had given me one thing, it is that it made my emotions numb.”

“I did not want to talk about my sordid past. I want to talk about your father…”

“Your father has left me with something.”

“An old metallic chalice of some sorts. He told me to give it to you after I got you out of this town if something were to happen to him.”

Seeing question in Hagan’s eyes, Mr. Liu told him, “Your father said that everything that you need to know is in the diary that he has given to your mother.”
