Chapter 15: OBSIDIAN PALACE
Drake continued on his way. As he bit into the fries and burger, he couldn't help but praise the guys that came up with these recipes. Their genius in the art of cuisine must definitely have been a gift from God almighty.
By the time he was done with his meal, he had arrived at his destination, the Obsidian Palace.
The Obsidian Palace was a major power in the human empire. The company had hands in everything; from communications to transportation and teleportation, marketing to real estate, you name it. It was a very popular business and had a branch in every city no matter how small.
He soon arrived at his destination; Drake was standing in front of a tall fifty floored story building that looked as if it was completely built from black crystal.
As he stood before the staircases that lead to the magnificent breathtaking gates, he couldn't help but nod his head in approval of the artistic sense of the architect that designed it.
It was no wonder Obsidian palace was one of the top business establishments in the Empire.
A large plaque hung above the entrance inscribed with the characters 'OBSIDIAN PALACE' in beautiful imposing calligraphy. Customers and staff entered and exited the building through the gates where four guards armed with cold glinting metallic swords, dressed in intimidating crystal black armor. If you didn't know they were people you would think they were sculptures carved from the same material as the building.
"Hey you're that guy!"
Just as Drake was still admiring the building, when a voice sounded beside him attracting his attention. He looked over only to find the green dressed young lady he had met earlier walking over, a beautiful smile on her face.
"Sylvia?" Drake was surprised, he hadn't expected to run into her here, 'What is she doing here? Was she following me?' but he didn't say that out loud.
"You left too abruptly last time, and I couldn't find you anywhere even after searching for so long. I don't even know your name." she said as she approached.
