Robert did not hesitate to enter the train. However, when he entered the train and saw Susan. He halted his track and looked at her with wide eyes.

Holy Moly.

"Susan!" He cried as he rushed to hug her. But to his disappointment, she sidestepped his hug, keeping a distance between them before she asked.

"Long time no see, how are you doing?"

Robert didn't know what to say. He was just staring at her with his mouth ajar. After a couple of seconds, he recovered from his initial shock and gave a bittersweet smile.

"I'm good, what about you?" He asked.

"Fine."

With that, Susan averted her gaze and looked outside the ark. Robert wasn't annoyed by her cold attitude. He was already conversant with her behavior. He took a deep breath and waited for the others to come in.

Shortly, the group began to come in and look at the people with weariness. This was a new environment and every face was unknown. They held their weapon tightly with their gaze moving back and forth ready for action.

After a couple of seconds, the group entered, leaving only two people outside. They were William and Isla. Facing the enormous mountain which was Justin, the two looked at each other before Isla gave him a warm hug and walked towards the train with a light step. Her gaze contained a myriad of emotions but she hid it with her beautiful smile.

'Don't worry. When I enter the train your power will mean nothing and I will enact my revenge.'

Unknown to her, all her hidden emotions could not escape from Justin's scrutinizing gaze. This, a smirk appeared on his gaze as he swung his arm.

Isla was still smiling, planning her revenge when a powerful force sent her flying. She crashed a couple of distances from William as blood splashed out of her mouth. She puked out her innards as her face whitened. With her previous injuries, this attack sent her to the brink of death. She panted and her breathing was erratic.

"Why?" She murmured in dazes.

Meanwhile, everyone was stunned by Justin's attack since they expected William to be attacked since he was the perpetrator. But this…?

They looked at each other and sighed. As usual, no one could guess the king's thoughts.

"Are you coming or staying with her?" Justin asked.

What!

William could hardly believe what just happened when she heard Isla cry from behind.

"William! Please save me!"

William looked at Justin's calm expression and understood he would stay and rescue her or join the train. Hence, his expression turned unsightly as he looked at her not knowing what to do. He bit the corner of his lip with agitation and blood came out.

Meanwhile, Mack was furious when he saw Isla's miserable situation beside the beast that was already on her. She summoned all her strength to defend against the beast as blood gushed out of her chest.

"How could you be so ruthless?" He murmured and gnashed his teeth.

He wanted to jump off the train and save her but controls his urge when he remembers his past experiences with Justin. This was a man you can't reason with common sense.

Ah!

A sharp spike lodge deep into Isla tight and she fell on her butt. She grimaces in pain with years beaming from her eyes. Why did it have to be like this? She cried in her heart. She had done everything to survive and when she saw a mobile shelter, she thought her time had come to rule. And that's why she didn't hesitate to tell William to attack the train.

When pushed to shove, she won't be responsible for the attack. And when she saw the situations of things previously, she knew her plan worked. But things went south in the middle.

All this thought spiraled through her mind as she couldn't believe her perfect plan was ruined by Justin's unreasonable attitude.

She knew her death was imminent when she saw William's indecisive action. She cried unwillingly.

Everywhere was quiet as they looked at Isla's pathetic behavior. Although her pathetic behavior drove people's pity, that pity was kept deep in their hearts.

Ah!

A giant centipede came out of the ground and chopped Isla's leg into two. The pain made her brain short-circuit and fuzzy. She lay on the ground, looking at the dark sky.

William looked at Isla as she was surrounded by beasts and devoured, leaving nothing behind.

Watching Isla remains — her blood. A drop of tears dripped from the corner of her eyes. She knew how selfish she was but also knew she was a good person. She knew how she helped him in the past both before the apocalypses and during the apocalypses.

Nevertheless, he had not reached the stage to die for her when he had the option to live.

I'm lonely. And I'm lonely in some horribly deep way and for a flash of an instant, I can see just how lonely, and how deep this feeling runs. And it scares the shit out of me to be this lonely because it seems catastrophic.

With that, he shook his head and head toward Justin. Arriving beside him, he tried to look directly into his eyes but what accosted his gaze made him tumble back. He panted and blood splashed out his mouth.

What the hell!?

One of the saddest lessons of history is this: if we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

Power resides only when men believe it resides in them. A shadow on the wall, yet shadows can kill. And ofttimes a very small man can cast a very large shadow.

And that small is Justin. And the shadows are the heavens.

'Is this really a human being?' William shouted in his heart. Perforations gathered in his face and his hand trembled. He dares not to look at Justin again.

"You've learned your lesson. Come in." Justin said calmly.

"Y-Yes." He nodded as he struggled to get up. He lowered his head and walked past him into the ark.

Meanwhile, only a few undertook what just happened while the others were confused. Nevertheless, they were happy since the short melodrama came to an end. And the ending couldn't be more interesting.

Justin looked at the hundreds of beats and thought for a moment. Previously, he was furious about the attack on the ark but now. He realized what the beasts mean to them.

He turned and entered the ark. Everyone held their breath while the new arrival looked at him with deep fear.

"Merab and Mack should take the defense team to clear all the beast." He commanded without looking back.

​ "Also, I want the bones and skin to process immediately."

With that, he disappeared from the room, entering another car. Meanwhile, the new arrival looked at each other and looked at the people in front of them.

'These people are strong!' they screamed in their hearts.

Previously they thought only Justin was strong among the group but now, they realized how strong they were.

Merab looked at the two Royals for a moment before she left to accomplish her order. Previously, she would be awed seeing only a single royal but now. They mean nothing to her. In the presence of absolute power, what does a royal amount to?

Susan looked at her friends for a moment and left without uttering a word. Although, Isla was her close friend and her death saddened her heart. Nevertheless, she didn't bore any ill feelings toward Justin. Besides, she knew their arrival on the train was because of her.

With what she knew of Justin, attacking the ark means death. But since they were her friends they kept their lives. And if they can't cherish that, she won't hesitate to take them down.

Watching the backside of Susan, Robert and William looked at each other and sighed. They are not stupid, they knew their friend had changed a lot. And the pressure coming from her body wasn't something they could withstand.

Like a chain reaction, all the executives left the car leaving only Nasir. Noticing this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

'Why did you dump them on me?' He cried.

He cleared his throat and looked at their faces. "Welcome to Genesis. I hope your arrival will bring improvement and happiness."

Suddenly, the sound of multiple footsteps came from the other cars and the others turned their heads.

A group of men armed with cold weapons matches out. In front of them were Merab and Mack.

Seeing Mack, Robert and Willem were stunned. They wanted to rush and give a hug but control their impulse and look at Nasir.

Noticing their gaze, Nasir said seriously.

"I know you know each other but this is not the time to catch up. When we start moving, you can do that."

Arriving in front of Robert and William, Mack smiled and gave a slight nod before they exited the ark.

Watching tens of people carrying cold weapons made the people not breathe. They thought they were strong, but the presence of this small troop.

Also, they saw a small girl among the troops, and their mouths were agape.

"You shouldn't be surprised. That's the baby on the ark. And her power… I will let you watch" Nasir chuckled when he saw their expression.

Since Lola joined the defense team, everyone that saw her was flabbergasted but when they saw her strength and ability. They questioned their existence.

When the defense team began their massacre, Robert and the others sighed for the umpteenth time. These people are freaks. They concluded.

After a couple of minutes, the icy field was clear of the beast, leaving a trail of blood.

Horn!

The ark trembled slightly and began to depart.
