Chapter twenty four

The final battle 2

At large

Ever since Saif's illness, the Alkali corps went into a state of panic. He had no heir and he held more than eighty percent of the shares. After Papa died, he left his shares to Saif and instructed him to pass them over to two very capable Alkali in the distant future. Naturally, since Saif's own grandfather owned forty percent and Papa owned forty five, it is totaled at eighty five percent of the entire company. But Papa wasn't the only one managing the company. Papa used to be the chairman while an outsider, Alhaji Tasa, used to be CEO. However, no one understood why Saif preferred to let Aljahi Tasa go after Papa's demise. He elected to hand over the reigns to a younger person who was also an outsider. His name is Alhaji Hadi. Both CEOs are not Indegines of Maicki. But of course, most of the important chairs has been taken up by netizens of Maicki. However, there's a lot of foreign influences that has come into the equation ever since Saif Merged the Alkali empire with their 'old money' which is their heritage. The Alkali fortune which was activated by Saif's appearance. A lot of Alkali's became major shareholders.

The Alkali is divided into three major factions. One was the main family branch which is being led by Uncle Dee as one of the closest true Alkali's. This branch is responsible for Alkali fortunes in the capital and the main states around it. It must be understood that the Alkali holds vast fortunes all around Maicki. Without careful allocation of duties, it might well perish over the course of many years.

The second branch of the Alkali is led by Deeni Alkali. He is responsible for all the Alkali fortunes around the east and west parts of the country. It is the most difficult task since Takhis were concentrated in these areas. Even though he is the leader of this branch, the Alkalis in this region actually have a lot of ties with the Takhis, their lineage had been diluted so much that the family only called them Alkali's because they had the blood running throu their veins no matter how small. But they actually held the least influence in general matters. They were considered distant Alkali's. Even though they enjoyed the same benefits as all the others, they are expected to go with the flow and obey higher commands.

The third branch are the Alkalis heading the south both branch of the Alkali fortune. These Alkali's are actually the closest to the true heirs. They are the Royal Alkali's and they are concentrated in areas most populated by the Thiltes. The only reason why they weren't considered true heirs is because there was only one branch in this sect which had never married outside the Royal line. This branch are Saif's ancestors. They were the branch which were mercilessly hunted and killed by the Antas until they were forced to flee for their lives. Actually, there were only two heirs which remained alive after the hunt. Saif's great grandfather and his brother. However, while they were running away from Maicki, they were forced to separate because they were told that the reason why the Antas kept locating them was because of a spell they did with the brother's blood. As soon as they separated, they would've rendered the spell useless. Not that it held much stock to spiritual persons like them, but when you are desperate, you are forced to use every weapon in your arsenal.

They never thought that it would be the end of their encounters. They never met after again.

But now, Saif's lineage is found and aside from him alone, no one knew there's another line of true Alkali's somewhere around the world. Perhaps they even number more than Saif's minuscule one person branch!. Saif is the only one who survived his line. And now, there's Amal!

Suddenly, while the company was preparing to elect a new chairman, at least someone with the highest shares aside from Saif, a major event occurred.

Someone in the name of Deeq Alkali emerged!
