The Athena Code's
41. Arthur's VENGEANCE
Virginia, United States, February 06, 2022
Present time
Geon Arthur Yildiz has returned to ASTROGUN.
After taking a flight Jakarta-Virginia is quite tiring.
There was no doubt for her to uncover all the depravity of Barbara Clarkson and The Shadows. That's why he hastily returned to America.
In the special room Arthur was being accompanied by Chen Yuan.
“How are the preparations for the meeting with Laksmana Spencer, is it in order?”Ask Arthur.
“Of course is in order. Haaah... finally this CEO chair feels again the warmth of b*kongmu.” Kelakar Chen Yuan . Only he can treat the CEO of Astrogun at will.
'‘Hmm...I don't want to joke.”.Ketus Arthur cold
“Oh, fine if that's what you want.”Sahut Chen acted following Arthur's cold style.
“Deliver the entire company's full report as long as I'm gone."Arthur orders as usual every time he returns to Astrogun. "Socrates where? I haven't seen him since. He should have been activated if I were here. "Subsequently Arthur asked the AI robot who served as his assistant.
Socrates is a robot with a special ability to manage complicated administrative systems, able to perform all secretarial tasks better and faster than humans. As well as a multitalented personal assistant equipped with a sense of humor that can melt the atmosphere.
Socrates was designed by Arthur himself because he felt more comfortable interacting with non-humans, to reduce his stress and psychosomatic opportunities.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you. I borrowed Socrates to help ease my duties as long as you're not here. He's still in my room." Said Chen Yuan with an unrelenting heartbeat. This time Arthur would be furious he thought.
"Give me the control bracelet. " Ketus Arthur.
"Arthur, look.. emmm.actually... "
"Hey what's wrong you're so nervous, this is suspicious . " Cut Arthur full of probes.
Chen Yuan got up from the seat. Prepare his mentality to speak honestly before the CEO.
"Well, actually I've changed the gender and skin of socrates . Now she is a female robot, hehe. I'm sorry. If you don't like it I'll change it soon." Said Chen Yuan like a little brother who demanded permission for his carelessness towards the understanding elder brother.
"Anna, come to the CEO's room! " Chen Yuan's orders go through the control bracelet that connects him to the robot.
"Always, you can never get away from women and women, do you not have true love?!" Arthur slapped Chen with his words.
Chen Yuan simply fell silent calmly and leisurely. It's really nice to have an insensitive friend at all. Grumpy Chen in heart.
Then...
"Hi, good morning my dear Chen Yuan . Good morning Mr. Geon CEO Arthur Yildiz. Glad to see you back. Introduce me Anastasya, the personal assistant of my good-looking and kind friend Chen Yuan. "Speak the beautiful female robot with her beautiful red hair.
This time Arthur was really upset. Surely not to his Socrates robot who is now changing the look to be their childhood friend Anastasya, but to Chen Yuan who had reset the total memory of the robot even changed the voice of the baritone Socrates with a soft female voice teasing. Arthur inflamed.
" Hehe.. Sori. I was inspired by the words of Athena robot yesterday who said there is a manufacturer of special skin robots in South Korea, so I tried to change Socrates to Anastasya by ordering skin from there, so that I get more excited at work. You know, my job is very solid and heavy, I need a really fun friend instead of a stiff one like Socrates. "Said Chen Yuan at length.
Ting! chen Yuan's Gadget's voice clinked.
"Message in from Admiral Spencer. He's waiting for us right now at Navy Seals headquarters. We're leaving right now. " Chen broke the tension between him and Arthur. What a help that comes at the right time, Inner Chen.
"Enable the Astro-armoredcar Gen-Z01, this time I don't want to mess with them." Arthur told Chen Yuan to take out the car armor with first-rate safety and toughness.
"Bend Akiro, prepare the Astro-armoredcar Gen-Z01! " Chen Yuan repeated Arthur's command through his wireless communication device.
"The enemy is clear before our eyes, we must take it one step further." Tukas Arthur again.
"Yes of course." Chen replied in relief as Arthur's attention was diverted from his Socrates robot problem.
Together with five of their main bodyguards they set out for Amphibious Naval Base (NAB) - one of the headquarters of the Navy Seals located in Little Creek, Virginia beach. There was no need for many escort personnel with all the advanced weaponry they were wielding right now. The Astro-armoredcar Gen-Z01.
On Chen's journey, he thought Arthur had not forgotten Socrates.
Meanwhile, Arthur is still repeating events after events that make his determination even stronger to imprison Barbara Clarkson.
At gunpoint, Arthur was forced to work in Barbara Clarkson's secret laboratory on the ghost island of Palmyra Atoll.
Unfortunately Geon Arthur Yildiz is a man who holds the title Mr. Genius. It can easily find various bugs hidden in the data base system in the lab. Through Bugs, Arthur managed to steal a lot of secret data belonging to Barbara Clarkson. The evidence in the form of photos, videos and other important data that can be used as strong evidence to throw Barbara into prison.
Then Arthur can easily send all the evidence to his double account without being detected by the cyber security system in the laboratory.
Throwing Arthur into the robotics lab is like throwing a fish into a pond or throwing a monkey into a forest. That makes it grow.
Even silent – Arthur accidentally creates bugs in the robot neurosystem designed by engineers in the laboratory. That's why Arthur can easily fit into the “NEFERTITI” robotic neurosystem that Barbara Clarkson sent to Jakarta some time ago.
Shortly after Arthur's return from Afghanistan, Barbara Clarkson met Arthur in person at Astrogun. For the second time he persuaded Arthur to join his secret project Future Warriors for Peace (FWFP). But once again Arthur rejected him coldly.
Barbara Clarkson could only rely on her final moves. Threatening if Arthur brings the evidence to the public or the PENTAGON officials Alexander Yildiz, Stefanie Yildiz and Aisyah Kamila Yildiz will be at stake. At that time Arthur agreed and made a deal with Barbara Clarkson that as long as Arthur was silent, Arthur and his family were safe.
In reality, Barbara Clarkson has not kept the deal and has sent her people several times to endanger Arthur's life until the events that happened to Adam Sinaga make Arthur change his mind. Plus the latest info from Lakshmana Spencer that everything that happened to Athena was the result of Barbara Clarkson.
Now there's no pardon from Arthur for a Barbara Clarkson.
After twenty-five minutes of travel they finally reached Navy Seals Headquarters Amphibious Naval Base (NAB ) in Little Creek, Virginia Beach.
Their arrival was greeted by three officers sent by Admiral Spencer.
Admiral Spencer was waiting for them in a special VVIP room inside one of the US Navy buildings located on the beach.
"Please sit down, great young man. " Welcome Admiral Spencer while Geon Arthur Yildiz and Chen Yuan arrive in the room in particular.
"Thank you Admiral, we are just young men fighting for humanity, nation and country." Arthur's voice is low.
"Mr.G, I've heard a lot about you. A visionary who is full of innovation, leading in weapons technology. No wonder so many people are after you. I've always been hooked on using every product from ASTROGUN. You are indeed amazing. " Praise Admiral Spencer again.
"Astrogun would not have advanced without this friend of mine. " Arthur said as he pointed towards Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan greeted with a line of sweet smiles.
"Oh, Mr. Chen. Hahaha.he is like a calm vast ocean with beautiful beaches. But be careful, when the ocean is raging no one can dam it. Not really, hahhahaha....." It was good for Admiral Spencer to melt the atmosphere, because he had met Chen Yuan several times who was good at warming the atmosphere and making him not feel awkward. Different from Mr. G.
"Admiral, I brought all the evidence I found without exception. " Arthur said as he opened the black suitcase that Bend Akiro had given him.
"Okay, our team will go through all these documents first before we take them to the Pentagon's top brass." Admiral Spencer was excited as he received the suitcase from Mr. G's hand. Check the contents for a while, then close them again.
"I'll let you know about any developments in this case."Admiral Spencer again.
"Admiral, in return I just want information about Seal Woman codenamed Athena-1609. " Essurely Arthur went straight to the core. "Was he actually killed in a reconnaissance operation he did with seal team 6 at Palmyra Atoll?"
Admiral Spencer remained silent for a long time. It seems to be thinking about something with great consideration.
Arthur took a heavy breath. I can't believe the girl came and went so fast. Leaving behind his memories and deep impressions.
"Admiral, at least give me the identity of the real Athena-1609. I'll meet his parents to thank him. He saved me in Afghanistan." Persuade Arthur.
"I'm sorry, it's a code of conduct that can't be broken. Even the President of the United States is prohibited from divulging secrets about the Seals personnel. I don't dare. " Recisive Admiral Spencer.
Arthur fell silent and could only grit his molars, enduring the disappointment.
"Next, I hope we stick together to develop the "Spartans Robot warriors" program to keep pace with Barbara Clarkson's FWFP robot army." Admiral Spencer said again.
"Regarding that I myself will go down directly holding the project." Firm Arthur.
The meeting ended with satisfactory results despite personal disappointment on Arthur's part because he did not get the information he wanted.
After drafting and signing the details of a mutual agreement between the Navy Seals and ASTROGUN, Arthur and Chen Yuan said goodbye.
"I'm sorry about Socrates, do you really want me to give him back." Chen asked as they were on their way back to ASTROGUN.
"no need. Right now I am confused by my own thoughts. I can't accept the fact about Athena." Fizz Arthur.
Hmmm..do you feel the same now as when I heard Anastasya's departure. No one will ever know that I was the most broken person back then. Inner Chen Yuan.
Chen silenced Arthur playing with his mind. Silence reigns among them.
Until finally Bend Akiro stopped the pace of Astro-armoredcar Gen-Z01 right in front of the entrance of the ASTROGUN building.
"Thank you for your understanding. " She said at last as they were inside the elevator to head for the fifth floor.
"Ok, brother. Just use that robot as your personal assistant. If I need an assistant I'll activate Athena without needing to install a new program into her system, because she's a learning robot. He will learn for himself what he needs quickly, precisely and accurately." Arthur was excited.
"Oh?! You're so cheating never told me. " Grunts Chen.
Suddenly Chen Yuan's mobile ringtone echoed, a song from Michael buble titled You are the first, the last, my everything:
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all that I'm living for
You're the love I'll keep forevermore
You're the first, you're my last, my everything
Chen picks up a call that turns out to be from the robot Anastasya.
"Hello Ana, what's wrong? "
"Halo Chen Yuan dear, the receptionist said there was a guest by the name of Alicia Stanford and Roland Stanford wanted to meet with ASTROGUN CEO Geon Arthur Yildiz. "
DEG!! Chen's heart started to overreact.
"Well, have the receptionist take them to the VVIP living room. You stay in my room don't go anywhere without my permission." Chen's orders.
"Well, that handsome and kind-hearted Chen Yuan. "
Arthur listened to all those conversations because Chen activated the loudspeaker on his phone.
"Don't let them see Ana's robot, let alone the ridiculous memory you've implanted. Should those good-natured and kind words always be behind your name? Ckkckckckck. " Arthur said a little crackle. Sometimes he was inexhaustible with Chen Yuan's outrageous sense of humor.
"Of course, I'm not gonna let that happen. Let's go meet them. It's been a long time since I've been visiting Alicia's aunt. " Sahut Chen's.
Arthur and Chen return to the second floor to meet Alicia and Roland Stanford.
"Welcome Aunt Alicia. Welcome brother Roland. This is a really good surprise for us." Chen exclaimed warmly and kindly.
"Welcome Aunt Alicia, welcome to Roland Stanford. " Arthur's words could not keep up with the warmth and hospitality that Chen Yuan presented.
"Arthur, Chen. You guys are amazing." Reply Alicia while hugging the two young men alternately.
After sharing the news and chatting about the light things and tasting the drinks presented, Alicia Stanford began to talk seriously about the purpose of her arrival to Astrogun.
"Arthur, aunt came here to apologize to you. These few years aunty lived with deep regret over what befell Ana. Aunty has blamed a lot and even cursed you at will, even though you were the one who was always there for Ana at that time. After reading all Ana's diaries, the aunt realized it. Aunty will never calm down before apologizing to you. " Alicia Stanford said in a quivering voice. It was as if he had dropped all of his charges and curses on Arthur in the past.
"Alicia Aunt, I never blame you. And I have been able to forgive myself, as well as all the things related to that incident." Arthur Lirih.
Chen Yuan did not want to comment, nor was he the one who was always listened to and preferred like Arthur.
Arthur hugged Alicia's aunt for longer. "I never blame aunty. All that happened was a lesson for our aunt. " Arthur muttered as he stroked the middle-aged woman's shoulder.
"Thank you, you were once good friends for Anastasya. We have to get back to London this afternoon. Excuse me first, don't forget to stop by if you're in London. " Tukas Alicia Stanford resigned.
Arthur and Chen take Alicia and Roland off until their car disappears outside the gates of the Astrogun building.
"Where are you going to live now, is it back to the old apartment, or the special apartment in Astrogun or to your house in Arlington? Decide immediately so that the team prepares security faster. " Chen reminded Arthur who often forgets this so that his security team is often confused.
"I want to be here to make it easier to monitor the Spartans project. " Murmurm Arthur.
"All right, I'll ask Bend to set things up. "So Chen.
" Okay, I'm back in my apartment. I don't think I've had enough rest after Jakarta. " Armur to Chen.
Arthur looks for an elevator to the seventh floor of the Astrogun building where his apartment is located. Five personal guards and one roboguard followed in his footsteps.
Suddenly there was a video call from Kamila. Arthur picked up the call quickly. He wanted to know about Adam Sinaga.
"Hello brother, don't forget brother.... " Tukas Kamila spoiled.
"Oh yeah, oh yeah. but don't forget what ? hehe... " Arthur's reply made Kamila's lips loose.
"Now Anniversary mama and papa, come to switzerland, mandatory!! " Tukas Kamila again.
"There's too much busy right now for the next few months. Tell papa and mama brother will try to be present but brother can not promise. " Armart didn't dare give much hope.
"Getting started, anyway Mila wants us all to gather.bye bye brother! " Type Kamila sulked and disconnected the video call
"Pampered habit." Arthur muttered as he stepped out of the elevator. He is now on the seventh floor.
Arthur took off all his formal clothes. Leave a short luxury boxer that makes him feel comfortable and free.
He entered a luxurious bedroom that he had not greeted for long enough. Lose his body immediately to release fatigue.
A black smartphone from the I-phone series is pegged on a small table where he used to put his daily stuff.
For a long time he did not activate the smartphone because he forgot to bring it to Jakarta.
Arthur got up from the bed and grabbed his Smartphone.
