The night before the coup against the president, in which this conqueror intended to take over this country I have a mysterious dream, I am in a forest full of fog, walking through a ravine that has a colorful moss that makes it seem as if I were walking through the rainbow, the sun with its rays disperses the cloudiness letting me see two women waiting for me on each bank, they are facing each other, one is Lie, I am glad to see her working, the other is Yací, who looks at me with contempt, without a doubt she must be the emperor's version, I approach her, she shows me her hand, in it I see the ring I gave her, which seems to expand, expand, change color, until the whole landscape turns red and the robot woman explodes with a blow to the doctor, I scream so loud that I wake up still with my mouth open, the armed guards enter worried about the screaming, I am washed in sweat, I can hardly tell them that I was dreaming. I immediately go to take a bath with cold water, remembering the customs of the prison, which calms the bruises that still torment me, there were so many beatings that I lost count, I remember many prisoners full of tattoos, on the other hand, my skin is covered with bruises, I know that I will charge them to that crappy president, I dress in silk clothes that fit me perfectly, a servant invites me to the dining room where I have breakfast delicacies, I am in a huge dining room, I can't imagine how unnecessary it is to carry it between worlds, my theory is proved when no other diner arrives, a servant washes my hands announcing me: -sir the conqueror needs to see you.

I go to his throne room, I enter softly where this guy greets me as if he has always known me, of course it is a version of me, that can be applied, he congratulates me saying:

-Mr. Estiben, we have investigated what you did in this world and it is impressive, let me thank you, had it not been for your actions, we would have perished upon arriving to a destroyed land, with no conditions for life, I cannot understand the level of stupidity of those leaders who give priority to riches than to life, as if they could breathe money or eat jewels.

-I offered him the possibility of making weapons for him to conquer the world and he preferred to lock me in a dungeon.

-That's terrible, Mr. Estiben, how long did it last?

-I don't know, they tortured me so much, that I lost the notion of time, it was not long before those dungeons were my tomb.

-That's terrible. -His wife interrupted the conversation, looking at me with that little face that makes me want to kiss her with my eyes open to know that it's real.

-Mr. Estiben, I assure you that if you keep looking at my wife like a moron, I will send you to one of those dungeons, I need you to concentrate on the operation, since you know the facilities of that gentleman and his technology.

-Of course, yes sir, everything is in the plans we developed, it is of vital importance to rescue my android and if possible capture the leader alive.

-We know that, you want to collect those hosting debts from him.

-Yes sir, I would also like to ask you to let me have access to your travel device at the portals.

-When I come back I will show it to you myself, I guarantee that you will be amazed, it is a work of art that I came up with in a dream. -The conqueror makes me remember what I dreamt the night before, he makes me look at his queen's hand which has a ring just like the one I gave her, it could be a coincidence or I am being deceived, I can't react like a madman, causing me to be imprisoned at least, that reminds me that I must be cautious in my steps, I say goodbye looking at her and she also does it touching her head as if it hurts her for remembering. I feel my heart that wants to go out to get into her chest to stop feeling incomplete.

I leave for the operation, I will be the one to lead the troops. We have to cross the clouds of radioactivity left by the explosions of nuclear warheads, I discover their secret of war, they can camouflage themselves, apparently small cameras project the environment in a special suit, their weapons have silencers, they are not a fighting army, they are silent hunters. In this way we arrive at their facilities, we take control of their military installations without them knowing what it was that cut their lifelines. We have few casualties, only one soldier is mortally wounded because one of the enemies starts shooting to all sides thinking that he was facing frightful people, it hurts me that soldier who whispers to me trembling:

-please sir, I don't want to die so far away from my family.

-I whispered to him, "calm down soldier, you will make it, you will recover and you will return to your world. -I speak to him trying to calm him down, although the brown color of the blood that gushes in his stomach shows me that he is lost, even with his last breaths he reveals to me:

-Sir, this is my dimension, I was recruited from one of the poor countries of this earth, I consider that all of them are. -The soldiers do not speak to me, they look like robots ignoring me, they only report me the capture of the president who I see very comfortable in the chair, from where he sees me smiling, I enter with fury and I unburden myself hitting him in the face, sinking my fists in that disgusting face over and over again, losing control, my arms move automatically when I remember so much suffering, in the middle of the beating with his mouth destroyed, he babbles:

-if you kill me, you won't replace her,

-I won't kill you, you taught me that there are fates worse than death,

The soldiers bring his family, I point a gun at them to pressure him to cooperate with me or I will kill his children, I know I am not capable and the savage challenges me:

-do it! Kill them, that way you won't know where they are either. -For a moment I caress the icy trigger, I press it, feeling like I'm sitting before a pressure, moving the gears that detonate the bullet that will harm those innocents whose only sin is to be related to this beast and the disgusting man adds: "You are not capable, lend me the trigger:

-you are not capable, lend me the gun I'll do it for you.

-if you don't care about that, then what do you want to give me my android?

-I want you to let me escape with my bodyguards, my family and a truck full of gold bars.

-That's not true, a truck is something that will be in your way when you escape and you have your bank accounts full.

-I don't know what a bank account is?

-It's the money you keep in the bank.

-Estiben, why did I want to keep the money in a chair? -Apparently there are no banks here, it was something I hadn't noticed during my stay, so it seemed to me that they had a problem handling their money.

-It seemed strange to me that people carried large amounts of money, in my world we can pay with cards that the bank gives us.

-I don't understand, and what would the bank have to gain by keeping the money, would they steal it, and if they steal it?

-They don't steal it, and it is complicated for them to steal it, since they have guards, and they pay their expenses with the interest they get from lending your money.

-that's doubly absurd, that means that you give the money to the bank in exchange for a card, while they lend it to earn interest, it would be better to lend it directly and in case they don't pay you back, you break legs as the moneylenders do. -But I see that there are moneylenders, in my land there are also, but they are illegal because they compete with the banks, besides charging with a heavy hand, although I agree, because if someone gets into debt it is because he is going to pay. -They are very useful for an emergency and if you do not pay them they send you to the emergency room of a hospital, it is legal, I have seen epitaphs that say "here lies John who did not pay, what he borrowed he asked for". It is even legal to charge the heirs, I know that this will seem strange to you in the same way that it seems absurd to me about your banks, for example tell me what would happen if all the banks run out of money because of a bad business or because people do not pay what they borrowed? -I have seen it, something absurd happens that I do not understand, the government saves them by injecting them with tax money,

-You see it's better for the lenders that if they go bankrupt because they don't get paid they console themselves with breaking bones of their debtors, not breaking the public coffers.

-that yes, though, we have a deal tell me where my Lie is and I'll let you walk away with your family and lots of gold.

-Okay, it's a deal, it's at this address. -He hands me a sheet with an address, I check it at the same time that my gun goes off, emptying the load, my finger moves remembering all the tortures that man caused them to do to me, his children cry while his wife hugs them trying to calm them down. While she cries silently, I approach her, feeling guilty, I tell her:

-Madam I apologize, it is that your husband owed me many, I was even pious, I should have tortured him in the same way he did, as for my promise I assure you that I will keep it, I promise you that you will leave with your children in a truck full of gold bullion and the body of your husband, to bury it near your new home.

I say goodbye and go with some commands to that address praying that the information is not false because I would have no way of knowing the real one.
