The recorder for the interview was turned off and Ryu stood up tp leave.Just as he was about to exit Judge Baek said,"Mr Long,what I am about to say is probably ethically wrong but you should know.Tomorrow a court appointed child psychologist will come and give his report about Ru.Following which if enough evidence is not available then I will make a ruling for joint custody.But you can do something to help tilt the scales.Register your marriage.There is a wealth of difference between a married couple and an engaged couple."
"Thank you,Judge Baek.I'll keep your suggestion in mind."
As he exited the chambers,Leona Knight was waiting outside for him.
She sauntered to him and gloated,"I knew you wouldn't reveal the truth about two years ago.After all you can't hurt your precious son by telling him the truth.But, honey,when you erased those medical records to protect Ru you helped me get back at you.Thank you so much.Now I will have my dear son and my revenge.Don't worry,I will do you a favor and not kill Ru this time."
Ryu smirked back at her went close to her ear and whispered,"Leona,dream on.You will not be getting within a hand's distance of my son.And killing him?You will be buried six feet under the ground before you can even think of it."With his threat hanging in the air,Ryu straightened and left her standing there.
Neil and Assistant Yang were waiting outside in the car for Ryu. As he sat in the car,Ryu gestured for Assistant Yang to begin his report."Boss,I have emailed the names of judges who have accepted bribes and those who have threatened the Judge.All proofs of their misdemeanors have been collected and handed over to the police head.They will wait for your go ahead and then proceed."

"And the esteemed Mr Pei?",Ryu asked
"He will be absent in court tomorrow.Allegations of insider trading,bribing,under the table deals and news of losses in big projects have been given to the media.Tomorrow at this time he is going to be busy in an emergency meeting.Everything is going as per your plan,Sir."Assistant Yang answered concisely.Ryu Long had already put in motion his plan long before anyone could think of.Just because a man did not stoop to underhanded and illegal ways did not mean that he could not twist the law and rules to suit himself.Those who planned to mess with him were going to suffer.
Ryu then opened his bag and passed on a big folder to Neil.Neil took it and as he opened the folder,his eyes nearly bulged with the overload of information."How did you.....?"
Ryu answered his unasked question,"Keep your friends close and enemies closer.You know that."
Neil actually felt a bit uneasy at his brother's thoroughness.He said hesitatingly,"But if you had this then you did not need to be married...Why go that route then?"
"Plan B." was the straight answer.
Indeed,Ryu had not felt the need for marriage.Though all the formalities had been completed,he had considered marriage only as plan B.But,now with Alicia,tying her to him immediately seemed like a good suggestion.Earlier the idea of marriage to anyone had been loathsome but now not so much.
"Neil,make preparations to register our marriage tomorrow.Fill in the forms today and submit the documents.Tomorrow before the hearing,we will register our marriage."
After this,the two brothers separated and went on their way.Tomorrow was his birthday and he had prepared some unique return gifts.He hoped his dear enemies liked them.

Core Chronicles is a series of interrelated stories, including in-depth major story arcs and shorter side stories about Cores and those affected by them through direct and indirect means. The first arc is planned to be Dungeon Core with City Building elements in an Urban Fantasy setting. It will mainly follow one main character's point of view, but on occasion, the POV may shift to side characters to give more information about what is happening in the wider world. The stories will also examine how the world changes with the introduction of magic and its various purposes. The System will be between soft and crunchy, with discrete levels and stats for characteristics and skills. But, for example, the health statistic will be a less clear indicator rather than a distinct stat.

Carus - Libertas
participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge and also having a go at NaNoWriMo this November. This was a first draft published as it was written for Nanowrimo November 2020. A little rough around the edges, I hope to come back and edit at some point, and then continue the story on. In the grand scheme of things Elias was nothing special. Which was why he was surprised by a random company on a new colony planet buying out his contract. That was the problem with the large companies that ruled the colonies, once they owned your contract, they owned you. Imagine the greater surprise when he learnt that the new company held the promise of freedom. Not from the constant battle against the Swarm that were also trying to claim the colony planets for their own. Nor from the Crust, the mysterious substance that covered the same planets and held the resources they all fought for. No, the freedom from being oppressed by those with more power and to finally decide where to go and where to set down roots and call home.
