Chapter 13 - Power

Holding his temple, Ramirez frown as he heard the complain of the US ambassador about the situation in the other side of the portal.

Since morning, ambassadors around the world have tried to ask and complain about the situation. The massacre and genocide thay did on the land of Japan, the aggressive invasion he just announced, and even when he reject the offer of the western where they will send military support.

He knows their plan. Yet when they were rejected, they are in fury.

The question in his mind is, what kind of politician is in their seats? Actors?

He wants to speak such thing, but formality should be done when in a diplomatic situation.

"The United States want to offer support, mister President, and please, for once, accept it. The people of America are worried that the enemy on the other side did horrible things. A report coming from their authority will ease them." US ambassador Clark Wilson said as he offer a papersheet full of contracts that states the supply that will be sent to the Philippines, or rather, the country of Japan.

'They're not even recognizing my annexation of Japan. What hypocrites.' he thought as he massage his temple slowly.

"The Philippines are not in need of diplomatic aid, Mister Wilson, in fact we're currently in a smooth process of returning the rescued civilian. Please don't interfere with our work as this is our own." he said looking at the ambassador with daggering eyes.

"But, the United States are worried that you might have mitigated your resources since the invasion. Please, at least accept some of our people."

'Cheeky bastard, they already infiltrated my country with their CIA.'

"No, we are currently negotiating with the Russian President, we don't need your support. Maybe the Chinese will need it, or the Koreans. We are not the victim of war after all. Please, you may leave."

"A-ah wait, mister Ramirez, at least try giving it a thought."

"No." soon, guards enter the room and escorted the man outside as he tries to struggle from the arm of them.

Ramirez left out a sigh as soon as he was left to his lonesome and thought about the current situation.

'They have entered our country, huh. Quite bold of them.'

Not too long, Ramirez secretly formed an anti-spy organization and for the first week, at least 5 agents were captured.

-----

All over the world, the leaders are in chaos. The Russia being the closest to the growing superpower in the east was being pressured by the western to be used as a mediator.

However, since the Russian leader is also a fierce man, they failed to even affect his country.

The Indian however, stayed neutral. Not wanting to be used, they declared.

As they all tried to infiltrate his country once more, Philippines have just started to develop new technology.

A hybrid between science and magic.

"Doctor Santiago, good to see you working." said by the man as he approach the busy person who's wearing a white coat.

"Mister President, good to see you too. Good news, for the past month, the collaboration with your friend have made our research progress!"

"Oh is that so?"

"Yes, look at this. You see that little particles there? That's the magic they called. Due to the unknown origin of it, we do not know yet their formation however, if we combine any type of atom in it, it will create an amazing result!"

"Such as?"

"A hybrid form of atom. Where the particles of magic will coincide with the atoms and as they combine, the magic particles will form a barrier that surround the proton and electron. But what really amaze us is the reaction of the nucleus. Instead of forming a barrier like the other, it instead combine and create a new form of particle, and the best has yet to come! As they combine, we tried to analyze it and even interfere with its creation. As we do so, we discovered that the magic particles combined with atom can be change depending on our desire, isn't that great, Mister President!!!??"

"Which means?" Ramirez said wanting to simplify the science shit he just heard.

"Which means we're going to take the manipulating energy into another level! We can build ships that float in the sky, we can create things and make them work without fuel, if possible we may even be able to travel with constant speed!" he said as his tears of joy starts to flow from his eyes while clenching both of his hands out of excitement.

"T-thats really amazing. Imagine what we can do..." He said as he lower his head as he think of the future that will unfold.

"Right, right?!!" he said but soon falter as Ramirez hold both of his shoulder which made him stop.

"Do you have anyone in your people acting suspicious?" He said while giving a cold gaze towards the scientist.

"N-no, why sir?" Fearing what will happen he comply and answer.

"i want this to remain hidden as long as I said so. If even for a little bit of information was leaked, I will have you all killed, not Exile, not imprison, but killed. Do you understand? You should know how much power you currently hold. Please."

Instead of feeling threatened. Santiago simply nod as he recover his former emotion mix with a proud face as his president beg for his cooperation.

"I will do my very best to prevent any leak of information, even if I die."

Discovering another source of energy is one step for humanity to advance. And currently, the Philippine Science Institution hold such secret that will soon change the tide of power in their world.
