《The King of Avarice》Chapter 11: Ajax, and Friends
Advertisement
As I leave the coffin I start working.
“Ajax, contact Mrs.Lee codename Fox, Mr.Crown codename Royal, Tim, Mr. Varlaam codename Q, and lastly Mr.Craine.”
I talk out loud to my smart home AI, Ajax.
Sudden thought, I believe this is why I talk out loud when i’m thinking, Ajax is always there listening and responding so it became second nature. I need to ask someone else if it’s the same for them.
“Yes sir, when would you like me to contact them?”
Ajax has a more stern voice but he still is a decent AI, I mean he helps me.
“I will need them immediately, tell them to meet me here, please and thank you.”
I try to be more polite to my associates, although sometimes things slip, when talking to them. Even my machine workers.
“I have contacted them sir, they will be here in approximately 20 minutes.”
Damn that gives me more time then I thought, I’ll do the rest of my preparations while I wait.
“Ajax i also need you to contact a NightRex store, the nearest one, have them prepare four gel pods. I need them as fast as they can prepare them.”
I didn’t want to spend this much money but how things are going now its a worthy investment.
“Sir, the pods will be available in 2 hours, they want to know where to bring them, where should I tell them to bring them?”
Hmm, this is difficult I can have them in my house but that will be much harder then I would like it. My best option right now is to put them in a empty warehouse.
“Is my warehouse on 28th street section 10 still open?”
The sections are the new states ran by the local Aucib’s even though they don’t have much power compared to an Aucik or Auciak.

Those people are members of the Aucidestion government and rulers of some of the Auciden empire. Praise to the mighty Aucis.
“Sir the warehouse specified is as you say, empty.”
Good I will have to use that for now until I start making more money or need a better space.
“Tell them to set up the pods there, if they need my presence i will head over there once i’m done here. Make sure to remind me.”
I don’t typically forget things but I believe things are about to get a lot more difficult.
“It will be done sir, is there anything else?”
He really does do things a lot differently than other AI.
“Actually yes prepare some coffee, im getting tired.”
As i’m finishing my cup I hear the ring of the door.
“Ajax invite my friends inside please.”
With the new smart houses they are able to do many things, one of them opening, closing, and locking doors.
“It shall be done sir.”
As I see my people enter I greet them then have them sit.
“I called you here today because things just got very interesting, and very serious. I see many profits coming are way.”
The first to speak was Mr.Craine, my loyal CEO.
“Well let’s have it then.”

Jalan Suram : The 100 Fire Holders
"Why us?" Still staring at the unusually stationary fire of the candle he was holding, Agung voiced the questions in our mind.

Holding our own candle tightly, we resolved to ignore them and continued our discussion. It was a matter of life or death after all.
