Apocalypse Regression's

The Imperial Phoenix

“You also know him?”

Ark asked in a voice that only he and Aisha could hear.

“Captain Imperial Phoenix, Cassandra.”

“Hou ..” Ark slightly raised his eyebrows.

Hearing Ark's reply, Aisha immediately frowned. A moment later, he immediately asked in a displeased tone.

“Are they pretty? Looks strong and pure? According to your taste?”

Hearing those words full of jealousy made Ark stunned. He then looked towards Aisha with a somewhat confused expression.

Realizing that she was losing her composure, Aisha turned her face away with slightly red ears. Only, it was well camouflaged as it was partially covered in hair.

“Only beautiful, she is indeed beautiful. Many beautiful women. However, that's not what interested me.”

“Then?” Aisha looked curious.

“I've met and spoken to him. Merely, I think he is only one of the generals of the Imperial Phoenix. Not the group as a whole.

I just didn't expect that a woman could be the leader of the group. Not to mention a group this big.”

Hearing Ark's explanation, Aisha looked relieved. She then showed a sweet and full of charm as usual smile.

Seeing the change in expression on Aisha's face, Ark was a little confused. After thinking it through, the young man asked.

“Do you have a problem with that woman?”

“Hehe~”

Aisha's eyes narrowed. Looking towards Cassandra, the woman said.

“Of course I have a problem with him. Other than because he was the one who caught me, I was also upset because of his pretentious attitude. Act like he is the truest man in the world.

Really annoying woman~”

Hearing a sentence filled with hatred and dissatisfaction, Ark shrugged. He himself knew a little how complicated women were. Not to mention if they fight.

Unlike men who can hit each other in the morning and make up in the afternoon, most women harbor hatred. Even their friendship was easily broken when fighting.

There were some women who fought in High School, continued to hate and compete until a few years later. Even to get married and have children.

Ark himself also did not know why such things could happen.

‘Female is a rather terrible creature.’

Think Ark secretly. They feel that they are more elusive creatures than mutated creatures.

Meanwhile, inside the room where the higher-ups of the Imperial Phoenix were.

“No matter how, I want you to catch the traitors that made Imperial Phoenix get into big trouble!”

Cassandra kicked the table with a grim face. The woman was obviously very angry over the recent events.

Imperial Phoenix deceived the Golden Maple Group, framing and nearly killing the chairman as well as some of the group's higher-ups!

The news instantly brought the prestige of the Imperial Phoenix down. Not only does that make their name bad, but it has a lot of negative impact on the group. Especially in this chaotic and irregular world.

With a name that was notoriously bad, surely most of the group chose to reject the act of cooperation with the Imperial Phoenix.

Indeed, the Imperial Phoenix was the largest and most powerful group in this city. However, development will always happen. The wheel can spin and the group at the bottom can go up, and vice versa.

Seeing Cassandra's anger, the people in the room responded in different ways.

Kron, the strong-looking middle-aged man just turned his face away, not looking at the woman while pretending to be ignorant. Obviously, the kind of reckless person who doesn't want to interfere with such a complicated matter.

They were both clearly people that Cassandra trusted. They also knew the woman well enough, so did not interfere and pretended to hear clearly the best option for them.

After all, the two people knew that Cassandra would be angrier if they replied to her.

“You're too much Cassandra.”

At the moment when that remark sounded, everyone turned their heads in a certain direction.

There, there appeared the figure of a fat old man with partially bald head and gray hair. He does not have a beard, but has a thick mustache. From his appearance alone did not look like a good person at all.

“What do you mean Mr Derek? Can you accept such traitorous treatment?”

Derek, one of the high-ranking senior officials who became the higher-ups of the Imperial Phoenix. Although notoriously arrogant, cruel, and selfish, but he still got the position because many people supported him. More precisely, former officials who thought the system of government would remain in place even if the world collapsed.

Not only Derek, but there were also some higher-ups who obviously did not care much about the incident. Seemed to be deliberately opposed to Cassandra and the people led by her.

At first glance, the matter of Chris' attempted murder has something to do with them.

It's just that, with the Imperial Phoenix's current rules, Cassandra couldn't catch them since she didn't have any real evidence.

Arguably, it is difficult to deal with the diseases that have taken root in a government system like theirs.

“That's not what I meant. Of course, I was angry because of the reckless actions that damaged the prestige of the Imperial Phoenix. However, I don't want you to blame people carelessly.

We tried too, so treat us well.

Moreover, such a thing would have no effect on the Imperial Phoenix. We don't rely on other groups. We can produce food and water, even our own weapons. There is absolutely no need to consider other groups.”

Derek said in a sad and tired tone, but the smile on his face could not be hidden at all.

Seeing the smile on the hypocritical man's face, Cassandra clenched her hands so hard. The nails dug into the palms of the hands, completely enraged and punished them all. But also feel depressed because there is no evidence.

‘These k-parat parents!’

Cassandra's eyes looked terrible. If gazes could kill, those people would have already been torn into thousands of pieces.

“A-Anu ... Can you all be a little calmer?”

Hearing that remark, everyone turned their eyes.

There, looked the figure of a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes. His expression looked polite, but also looked nervous when speaking. Her appearance was quite prominent and she was also notoriously intelligent.

His name was Ascot, the vice chairman of the Imperial Phoenix.

“Do you also defend them Ascot?!” cassandra asked in a cold tone.

“B-Not so Chairman. I mean, we shouldn't be fighting now and making things worse right?

If internal problems escalate and there is division, this will become dangerous. With the bad news spreading, the Imperial Phoenix would be targeted by many groups. Especially the Golden Maple Group who has a grudge against us.

Rather than fighting each other, I hope we can support each other to get out of this matter. Other problems can be postponed later, maybe?”

Sensing the cold gaze directed at him, Ascot's voice grew smaller and finally stopped talking with a wry smile on his face.

“I think Ascot's speech was right. Although the internal problems are messy, but the problems can be a little delayed. Anyway, like anything, we're still a family. It's just, competing against each other for positions.

Rather than focus on something like this, we should prevent the Imperial Phoenix from being destroyed. After that, just take care of this problem again.”

The speaker was a very thin old man with white hair named Wendell. Hearing his words, everyone did not dare to refute at all.

Not only because of being the oldest, but Wendell was also a wise person who was very important within the Imperial Phoenix. Even for this city before the apocalypse arrived.

If not for one more step into the coffin (too old and at the end of his life), Wendell would have been the leader of the Imperial Phoenix!
