Chapter 162 - Ace Hacker
In that single day, chaos enveloped the entire city of Gyoza. Communication networks were suddenly disabled, and the sole airport leaving in or out of the country was already controlled by the rebels. Causing extreme panic for both rich and poor individuals.
Fei and her son along with their three bodyguards tried to leave the city by car along with thousands of other people trying to flee for their lives. However, it was already too late. Within a single day, the city was already captured by the rebels.
After days of trying to find ways to escape, the mother and son were eventually captured.
One of the fighters that captured them recognized Princess Fei. So, they immediately brought the two of them in their newly established base as headquarters for their operation.
After days of captivity, the mother and son were kept in a tightly secured room as prisoners. They weren"t treated badly, but because of Fei"s fear and anxiety due to the continuous war unfolding in the borders of the city, her health started crumbling. Noticing his mother"s situation, the seven-year-old Sei started thinking how to help his mother.
Days went by and the rebels started to notice Sei"s exceptional intelligence. One of the leader"s subordinate pulled him aside and taught him how to hack computers. Thus in a matter of few days, the little genius Sei, mastered the science of hacking. It overwhelmed the rebel soldiers and even including the few commanding leaders that a seven-year-old boy was able to accomplish what few a.d.u.l.ts could do that it shook their ideals to their deepest core.
Since then, they treated him respectfully like a real prince even though by blood, he indeed was a real one. They also started treating his mother well, as per his request, giving her everything she needed as well as a personal doctor to check on her health.
Little Sei didn"t want them to harm his mother, and because the rebels knew she was his weakness, they used her to make the boy agree to everything they wanted him to do.
Months went by and Sei learned almost everything about the so-called Red Rebels. They were a plethora of different people: former soldiers, exiled individuals, rogue scientists, former activists, criminals, and people who have extreme hate towards the government. The worse was that, the Red Rebels were actually backed by various dark organizations and some powerful countries to create chaos and overthrow cities of their choosing. They were never just some simple rag-tag bunch of rebels. They were strong and many of them were people with superb skills, both in combat and intelligence. It was as if an invisible hand had carefully chosen to form an elite army that was capable to take over a nation.
Until eventually, the little prince was forced to join them. The young boy spent his days in front of computer screens as the Red Rebel"s new ace hacker.
He was truly a computer genius that left the rebel"s wide-eyed and slack jawed many times by what he could accomplish with a few clicks and command codes. Another year went by and little Sei slowly became one of the world"s most dangerous hackers. The boy eventually became one of the group"s most important individuals. He started hacking the enemy"s bases, stealing files of sensitive information, and created chaos within themselves, as ordered by the Red Rebel"s leader. The dark organizations and the countries backing the Red Rebels heard about him and they also started eyeing him with great interest. Ordering everyone in the group to protect him at all cost and never to displease him.
They nurtured him, turning him into a powerful human weapon. If he wished for it, they gave him everything he asked for, with one exception. The only wish they never granted, was to let his mother go back home. Well, the leader was aware what kind of mind the young boy has. They knew that the moment they sent his mother home, they could never control him anymore.
The young boy Sei also started joining the combat training of some of the few skilled young teens the group recruited in the city. He was physically exceptional, but the training was gruesome. They trained them how to fight and kill. The leader urged him not to join the training for fear that he might just injure himself, but the boy was determined and he didn"t listen to anybody else.
Until eventually, the civil war in Country H had spread widely, and various countries joined the war to drive away the Red Rebels. Due to that, as per order from the mastermind behind the Red Rebels, Sei and his mother were secretly transported to a secret base in the northern mountainous district of the neighboring Country X.
