Chapter 48: HUNTERS CONFERENCE
October 26, 2020. Two weeks from now. The President announced a Conference for Hunters. He said that every Hunter must attend. The Hunters who attend the Conference would be officially declared as Hunters of the country. They could enter the Portal with no restriction.
They would receive certification and a card that would guarantee their occupation. The Conference would officially announce the Hunter Association in the Philippines.
If you go, you would be certified and legalized as a Hunter. You could create and operate a Guild inside the country.
There were hidden agendas. However, the truth couldn't change that you would receive many benefits if you attend.

"Kuya are you going? "
Klein asked his brother, they were watching the news.
" I bet they want something from us... What do you think?"
Mikael asked Miriam's opinion. He knew that Miriam had experience when it came to this kind of topic.
"... Yes, we're going to attend. We know that they have something in their mind but we only need to evade it. I'm sure many politicians and tycoons will move. "
Miriam had an idea about politics. Their country's politics was dirty. Blood, money, lies, drugs, corruption, conspiracy, etc. These factors resided and revolved around the government.
As for the tycoons, they were a group of people who loved to earn money by making others suffer. Sure, there were good and honest businessmen but the truth that all of them utilized their money to take advantage of something would not be erased.
"After this Conference. We will leave immediately. "
"But what are we going to do? Our names are listed in the top trending. The reporters will follow every movement. "
"That's why you need to follow me. Especially you, Klein, you're too young. Perhaps many will talk to you because you look easy to get. "

"Yes. I will follow everything that you say, Miss Miriam. "
"Kuku, How about me? Can Foreign Hunters be part of the Conference? "
Kyle said while he's surfing the net.
" I believe not. Remember that you're a tourist. You are not a citizen of this country. "
"Okay. I can't do anything about that. I guess I'll just watch it on T.V. or phone "

October 26, 2020.
The World Trade Center of the Philippines was packed with people. There were politicians and reporters. There were many people inside, they have different features, skin color, male and female, young and old. They were the Hunters of this country.
Over 2 thousand Hunter attended the Conference. This was a great amount.
There were only 361 thousand Hunters in the whole world. It's a small portion compared to the 8 billion population.
Even though there were only two thousand Hunter inside. The World Trade Center was full of people. Many cameras survey the place. They saw many big personalities inside. Big time businessmen, politicians, actors, and actresses. There were even international identities inside. The only reason they were here was to see the Hunters.
"Kuya I'm nervous. I feel like they are Hyenas watching us like food that they're going to eat."
"Hyenas? Nope, they're vultures. I bet they want to scout us"
"Sshhh. Be quite. It will start."
Three people were wearing normal clothes and caps. They didn't want to garner attention. As for their plan, we would know if it's a success or not.
A famous host came out of the stage. He said some introduction. The host told some words and add some name to the speech.
The fight of glib tongues started.

"Ah, At last, it ended. We can now go to the house. "

Klein was tired. He's 17 years old who's inexperienced with this kind of thing. The Conference made him lose energy.
"Yup, let's go"
"Wait, there's something I need to do. I will find Jose before the others start to scout him ."
"Make it fast. The vultures are coming. "
Miriam was using her Clairvoyance to watch how the others were doing. She saw many people talking to the Hunters and enticing them to accept their offers.
" I feel like I'm in a Job Recruitment site, however, the situation is different. The employers and employees have now reversed their position... "
"Let them be. The only one who accepts their deals is those who need money or illiterate. It's better if you're the own Boss of your job. "
"Then why did you accepted when Brother Kyle asked you? "
Klein looked at her.
"This and that are different. If I decline his offer, I know I will die......every time I think about it I always had goosebumps"
"....."
Klein just listened to the 'always complaining Miriam'. He sighed and said.
"I hope my brother will find Sir Jose. I want to escape this place immediately. "
Miriam nodded.
"Hello, Miss Miriam. My name is Thomas Westwood. Can we have a moment?"
They heard a voice behind them. His gaze followed Miriam.
A handsome foreigner reached to them. He wore a stunning smile that could easily seduce any woman he meets.
.....

Mikael was walking to find his friend Jose. After some minutes he found him but people were talking to him.
" I guess I'm late. I want to stop them but I don't want to create a scene here...."
They took Jose outside. They were now finding the right place to talk. Mikael was late and he didn't reach Jose.
".....I guess this it huh. I'll just call him later and ask about his decision. I hope he didn't sign the contract... but looks like he will. "
As if those vultures would let their prey to escape alive. They would eat all of the meat before leaving them.
Mikael returned but... he couldn't find the two. Miriam and Klein were missing. There was no one in their location. He just left for a couple of minutes, but he couldn't see them.
"What happened? Did someone ask them? Tch, what am I going to do now... Ah I forgot, I have a phone. "
He took his phone and called them. His little brother answered, he had an agitated voice.
" Kuya, help us! A handsome dude wants to kidnap Miss Miriam!"
"Where are you?"
"We're in a restaurant..."
"Kidnap? Restaurant?"
Mikael questioned him.
"Ah just go okay. Perhaps you won't see her again. Or maybe you will find her killing someone! Quick! "
"Okay, I'll go. "
Mikael found the exit. He went out and ran. He wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
He dashed and followed the direction that Klein gave him.

Proud to live in the last remaining bastion of humanity, all that survived The Great War of the atomic age. Hidden deep below the surface of the earth, toiling under brutal conditions. Year after year, decade upon decade. All to expand into the natural cave system the Vault occupied, building for the future. However, John knew what his forefathers did not, that everything he’d been taught was a lie. After finishing school at the age of ten, John received his standard issue pipboy. An arm mounted personal computer, worn by everyone in the Vault. Used to coordinate the relentless pace of expansion, needed to work as an apprentice. To learn the craft that would be his life’s work. A noble calling to ensure a future for all that remained of the human race. A quirk of fate saw John equipped not with the crude, clunky, pipboy model his father wore. That almost everyone around him wore. His looked smaller, sleeker, finished in a jet black sheen. And capable of doing far more than its drab counterparts. The world above had been ravaged by atomic flames, yet life clung to its bones. The Red Valley fared better than most in the century since the bombs fell. The clean water and rich soil protected by rolling hills. All spared from direct strikes, for the most part. Life survived here. Trees spawned from charred ground, misshapen, green leaves turned red. Along with simple crops, grown wild at first, then cultivated by the survivors. The scavengers of the old world were inventive, hardy people. All determined to rebuild in the ruins of a world they never knew. In the decades that passed settlements emerged. They grew, spreading along the valley floor. Reclaiming the pre-war remnants of the once industrialised heartland. Salvaging the robotic wonders of a bygone age to build their walls and work their fields. To protect them in the dark of the wasteland. But such things are uncommon in this world, and the rarer something is, the greater its value. And the worth of pre-war technology had not gone unnoticed. The last, real, power in this world rested in the mechanised hands of The Brotherhood of Steel. Forged from the mortally wounded old world military. The Brotherhood used its access to the weapons made for a conflict no one won to strike out into the wastes. Men and women were equipped with advanced armour, aerial transportation, high grade weaponry. Accompanied by the training, strength, and will, to put them to use. They established chapters and set up outputs far and wide. All dedicated to a single purpose. To ensure the technology left abandoned by its long dead creators didn’t fall into the wrong hands. Namely, any hands that were not their own. This is the world John escaped into. A place of horrors brought forth from atomic fire. A place where survival meant battling against the darkness. Fighting a war each day to get to the next. And war...war never changes

The Shadow That Preludes Death (The Favoured)
Magic and fantastical beasts run wild on the countless worlds of the Fabric. Deities take an active interest in the Fabric. The Favoured, immortal mages of immense power vie for territory and power in the Fabric. Umbra a naive ward of the Duke is almost Grown and that means she will need to take an apprenticeship. The issue is she isn't good at anything, but she catches the eye of a master of magic, he thinks she might be one of the fabled Protectors the ones that would save them from the coming destruction. But Umbra isn't the hero everyone wants her to be. Updates will at least one chapter every two days. Notable Location Poliagoras. Poliagoras is the most important world in the Fabric partly due to it being the centre of everything both literally and metaphorically. Trade, commerce, travel, and politics are all conducted primarily on Poliagoras, it has the biggest city in the fabric stretching to cover almost the entire world. It also holds all the known Great portals in the Fabric which are the only way to travel to other worlds. Even without these things, Poliagoras would still be the most important world in the Fabric as it is home to the largest population of Favoured. They were mages chosen by the Deities and given the potential to become more than mortal. I cannot overstate how appreciated constructive criticism is. This is the first story I have written of my own volition so even a small comment on how I could improve would be great. The current title is most definitely a working one. I know it isn't great.
