“Cleopatra!” – Smiling, with open curiosity, she looked at him with a friendly look of her green eyes. Orth, to hide his embarrassment, said: “Pleased to meet you, Cleopatra.”
Kshatr stood between them and looked from below upwards to Orth’s face, then to Cleopatra, then said:
“Daughter, this is your future partner in our mission in the superficial terrestrial world.” Of course, after his training here in Shambhala. “Having said this, Kshatr sdded,” Now leave us. “I need to talk to the student. ‘And turning to Orth, he added,’ Follow me, young man.”
Kshatr turned his back on Orth’s and walked slowly into the house. If at that moment the teacher looked at the student, he would not have escaped the mocking look, backed up by a smile, with a scornful contempt in his face portrayed on Orth’s’ swarthy face. And yet, Orth did not dare to abandon his role as a pupil, since Theo’s arsenal had plenty of means to remove the obstinate guard into the state of the memory crystal until new unforeseen circumstances that could arise in the future when the participation of this experienced militant officer would be required. This was well remembered by Orth and tried to prevent oversight and disobedience, so he followed without a murmur the frail calf of this boy with the capricious, as it seemed at that moment, adult manners of the wise teacher’s experience. Finally, having followed the stairs to the second floor of the mansion, Kshatr opened the door of his office and, Passing the captain forward, went in after him, pointing to a chair in front of a wide table at the opposite wall to the door, said:
“Sit down, young man.” – Himself, going round the right table, sat opposite Orth at the table. Orth looked around him from his seat. On the walls of the room hung portraits, some people in ancient helmets of soldiers with quivers of arrows behind them and samurai swords behind their belts. Kshatr, catching Orth’s curious looks, said:
– On the walls of my office, – tightening a strong cigar, which has already lit up, – you see the founders of the clan of the defenders of the temple of Shiva Nataraja in India, they were the true bearers of the secret knowledge of martial arts shadow warriors. Now I fulfill their mission, after me will be my chosen receiver, to whom I will transfer my art.
At this time Cleopatra came silently into the office with a tray in her hand, on which stood two cups of strong coffee and a vase with truffle candies. She put the tray on the edge of the table with the words: “Dad, I thought that your conversation would be more productive with a cup of good and fragrant coffee.
“Thank you, daughter.” Kshatr continued, “take it, young man, do not hesitate to treat.” – And he took coffee himself, pushing the tray closer to Orth.
When the door closed behind the woman, Kshatr began to say: “Theo called me and asked me to engage in adjustments to the historical processes of human development, helping to avoid the erroneous ways in which it can go, developing weapons of murder that will eventually lead to self-destruction of mankind. If people’s suicides on the Earth cannot be avoided, then at least they must be removed by all possible means. Theo is very concerned about the historical processes that took place in his time on the Faeton. And in our time, when the civilization of the descendants of man from the planet Faeton, now Zelman, is accepted into the family of developed civilizations of the Milky Way galaxy, imposes a special responsibility on his supremacy of Theo, as the Curator of the Representation of the Solar System Civilization. To do this, he invited me to study the personal files of employees from the team of General Alexei Garinov. I really liked the qualities and service records of the major, the foreman of the detachment of security, Dumar, under his direct command were with him and you are the captain.
“So, did your Eminence prevent you from inviting me instead of me?”
– My daughter Onesie. – Kshatr, took a deep breath, and Orth raised his black eyebrows up in surprise, thinking: – “I wonder how many daughters you have?” This puny, early, older boy?”
“Well, I’ll skip your remark; let’s say I did not hear anything, reading your thoughts?”
– I, like any curious person, could have such an idea. – Orth was justified, knowing that Kshatr freely reads any of his thoughts, but nevertheless made a mistake.
– And, as for my age, I will answer that at the origins of the origin of the art of fighting methods “Wushu”, monks of the Buddhist monastery of Shaolin, I took a direct part.
“So you, the teacher, were the founder of the monastery?” Are you the same Indian Buddhist monk called Bhadra?
– No, it was my student, whom I sent to central China at the request of Emperor Xiao Wong-di. In the temple of Shiva Nataraja, Bhadra was a monk, and he taught me the art of self-defense without weapons, and in 495 Bhadra left India for China.
Kshatr age did not make much of an impression on Orth’s, but he did not fail to remind the teacher of his age: – Your Eminence, and how much do you think I am?
– Well, you look, Mr. Orth at twenty-five, according to the earthly calendar, like a young man from people from the outer surface of the planet. But in fact, if we take that part Time, how much your nature was in the crystal, from which you could make a diamond of purest water…
“Well, I hope that the mention of my true age will not figure in our affairs.” – interrupted the teacher Orth, to which Kshatr, releasing a large club of cigar smoke, spoke, with an undisguised share of sarcasm:
– I told you, Orth, that the best student, in my opinion, would be Dumar, but, my daughter Onishia, whom I introduced to you, Cleopatra, and with whom you will work in the future, why she chose you. So I have to teach you the skills of survival in any conditions, besides, at the same time keep the defense, sometimes from the enemy many times superior to you, and all your skills. And in these unpredictable situations I will give you knowledge how to win. Well, that’s my introduction in sort. Tomorrow, in more detail, I will set out the program for you, then I will specify the time and details. On the second floor there is your room along the corridor. Come on I’ll show you. – Kshatr rose from his chair, and, extinguishing a cigar in an ashtray, came out from behind the table.
The room that was intended for the student was opposite the teacher’s office, and when they went inside, Orth immediately determined that the room was no different from the hotel room he saw in hotels on the surface. The same layout, the bed, the table by the window, the bathroom, the wardrobe, the only advantage was that the window of the room looked out on the ever flowering garden, and the glass door that adjoined the window led to a spacious balcony that occupied the entire roof of the hallway of the two-story mansion. Here, on the outskirts of Shambhala in the province of Paradise, the Kshatr clan was sheltered from extraneous spy eyes from the governments of the superficial countries of the world. And Kshatr received orders for the execution of particularly difficult and impracticable tasks at the first sight by the secret services of the warring countries, through numerous intermediaries. Having studied this or that difficult work, he skillfully bargained, bargained large sums, for which he undertook to execute on time at the appointed time, which he himself calculated and determined. Customers, as a rule, agreed with his terms, and paid an advance, the remaining amount he received after the execution. It happened that some influential leaders hoped that their hired performer would
