Chapter 300: Chapter 300 - A Company Face
They stood in front of a large steel door that fit the sewer walls completely. In the dim lights of that place, coupled with the stench and slight sounds of some rats, it made the place seem like an abandoned place but one that shouldn't be entered alone.
It didn't help either seeing the 8 foot tall rounded steel door that seemed to be an unmovable defense and it somehow made the place look a lot more cold then it already was.
William looked at the door and felt like he was standing in front of a door that would open up to the monsters. But he didn't feel scared, not with Delmar, Adam and his dozen soldiers with him.
"Well then, We are here boss." Delmar said and nudged at William for confirmation.
William nodded as Delmar walked forward and took a careful look at the door. Then he gave a light knock to it and immediately a sentry flew up from the doors head.
It flew round the whole group and scanned them all before a beeping sound was heard and the door opened up. Looking inside they saw a lot of guards at both side of the hallway that was only lit up by red lights.
"Please come inside but we ask you to leave your guards behind." The sentry said in a female tone.
William raised his brows as he gave a look to Delmar. Delmar looked at the flying sentry and said, "We weren't told of something like this before."
"We know… But for the safety of the conversion, We ask you to leave them behind. Do not worry about your safety, This place is quiet secured and I urge that you trust us." The Sentry said and went inside the steel door, leaving the talk behind.
Delmar did not know what to do now so he looked at William who reluctantly nodded, "Well… we are here to talk with them anyway so might as well trust them this bit… unless you think we should leave."
Delmar shook his head, "No, this is a great opportunity. Even though I don't like how this is going but we cannot squander it for that." He said before he turned towards the guards and said, "Stay here and remain vigilant at all times, we might call you guys at any time."
The guards nodded before taking a straight line towards the door.
Delmar was the first to walk in before William joined as Adam walked from behind to look at his back. As William went in, the first thing to come to his mind was how were these guards able to see with their only being red lights.
Then he took a look at them and realized that it had something to do with the red and black visors they had worn around their eyes. But that wasn't the only thing that he noticed about them.
He saw that all the guards looked technically advanced. They were all equipped with the most advanced guns and armor and everything. It wasn't that his own guards didn't have any upgrades, it's just he didn't see any guards till now that were so heavily depended on machines.
It made them look like cybernized machines. Strong, Cool and Dangerous… just the kind one would expect in a future timeline.
William strayed away from them as he started walking in the hallway as Delmar and Adam always stayed vigilant around him. They were even more nervous than he was as they knew how big of a trouble they really would be in if they were ambushed here in a closed space with so many guards. But they still remained calm, so that nobody would be able to know their real thoughts.
It didn't take long before they came upon another steel door like the one before. But unlike the previous one, this one looked clean and much harder.
Delmar stopped as the guard to his right put a palm to his chest. He looked at him and asked, "What do you want?"
"ID" The guard said in a cold mechanized way.
William heard the voice and felt it sounded like a machines but one look at him told him that it was definitely a human. It was his advanced optimization that made him sound like that.
'Cool' William thought as Delmar gave him his ID, which was already fake but one that he was currently using.
The guards took a look at it as his visors scanned the card and many fake information about Delmar came to him. He took a look at all the information before giving the card back and asking, "Password"
"Password?... what password?" Delmar asked.
"Password to the door" The guard remained vigilant as he asked without any emotions.
"I didn't get any, I was just told to come here and have a meeting with them." Delmar said honestly.
The guards gave a look at Delmar and as time passed the stare only became harder as the visor also turned to a bright red color. But Delmar wasn't one to be scared so easily either, he looked back at the guard and his face even rivaled the look of the guard.
This continued on for a while before the guard gave a 'Hmm' before touching his ear and saying, "I have a problem here. The group says that they didn't receive any pass."
"… Uh haa… Hmm… Okay." The guard turned to them, "You guys can go in but… NO TROUBLE, Understand." He said giving a stern look.
Delmar only snickered at his words as the door opened up and they walked in. This time the room opened up to something that surprised them. It was not a steel room nor a room that would look damaged and destroyed because of the location. Rather it was a very noble room.
William slightly widened his eyes, looking at the ravish chairs and couches, the fireplace, the card playing table, pool table and other entertainment items. He and neither of his people thought they would come up to such a room but they were quick to disguise their looks as they were not alone at the moment.
There were three others in the room with them too. One was standing while the other two were seated on the chairs beside the fireplace.

Seeing them coming the two who were sitting got up and came towards them. William looked at the three but he only recognized the one who was standing. It was Walter Heinrich, the guy who had given him the number to join the Organization.
It was Walter too who spoke first. He came in front of them while only looking at William while giving brief glances to his entourage. He smiled and put his hands forward and said, "Young Master, Trust. It gladdens me that you have accepted my invitation to join our group."
William shook his hand but before he could say something, the guy to Walter's right said, "Ahh… Walter. It is still too early to say that they are already in now, right."
"I'm sure that they have some questions that they want to learn while we have some too."
