96: Second Mission (Part 4)

Second Mission (Part 4)

At the same time, chaos also ensued in the military base.

The general called her assistant to her office, wanting to discuss something.

Sipping her coffee, the general heard the sound of someone entering her room. "Have you finished the documents?"

"Yes, General." She nodded, handing her the documents in her hand. She then asked, "What does the general want to talk to me about? Is there a mission for me?"

The general handed a paper to her. "That is your mission."

The assistant took the paper and started reading it. The paper only had a word on it. It said, "BITCH!"

"!!!" Her body shook as she heard the general shouted, "Come in!"

Two people, a man and a woman, came in and suddenly ran toward the assistant to apprehend her.

"What are you two doing?" The assistant shouted, not knowing what just happened. Her body was pinned down by both of them. Even if she used her magic, these two would stop it. "General, tell these two to stop."

"Don't kill her since she still has her use." The general stood up and walked toward the door, but stopped when she heard the assistant's laughter.

"Hahaha… fool. Did you think that tonight is the best time to act? Sorry, but I felt the same!" The assistant sharply stared at the general with a smile. "General, did you like the coffee?"

"!!!" Looking at her expression, the general felt something off. Her body felt a bit stiff, and before she could examine it further, she couldn't move her body.

"General!" Both of her supporters were surprised, creating a chance for the assistant to retaliate.

Feeling their grasp loosen, she used her magic.

"Sh*t." They realized what just happened. They gritted their teeth the moment they saw a magic circle.

"Spark!"

The purple-colored magic circle suddenly released a lightning attack, electrocuting both of them.

"Arck!" Both of them screamed out loud. The woman fell down, letting out a bit of foam from her mouth. On the other hand, the man wasn't any better. Even though he was still conscious, he couldn't move his body as blood came out of his nose.

"First Lieutenant Risa, why would you-" He threw her a questioning look, but his head was impaled to the wall by a single kick from her.

Risa then looked at the general after the situation turned around. "Just as you said, you still have a purpose for our organization, General Cindy Ashley."

Risa took out her communication device and ordered, "Team A, go to the general's office and take her with us. Team B, come with me to kidnap Evan Young. The rest of you, go create chaos in this base. As soon as we get these two, we'll immediately retreat."

"You! You terrorist bastard! Our situation is already dire enough with the magical beasts, yet you want to create more chaos here!?" General Cindy could only shout after hearing the sound of numerous explosions from outside.

"Hmph. You know nothing! You don't know our reason to fight!" Risa gritted her teeth, recalling the scene a few years ago.

She was the same as Cindy, a soldier that wanted to fight for the country, especially for humanity.

She also led a group and fought bravely in the front lines. However, at one particular mission, they were surrounded by too many magical beasts and were forced to escape. But even after all their effort, they were still unable to escape. Knowing how it was about to end, they asked her to escape alone and gave their everything to buy time for her.

With regret, she ran toward the military base to request for them to send help. Unexpectedly, her hope was once again crushed as the general in that military base completely refused to send help and only told her, "Although it saddens me, there is nothing we can do. We don't have enough people, while there were around ten thousand magical beasts."

She tried to talk back, only to be immediately ordered to stand by on the base. She knew that they had enough people to send help. They just didn't want to spare any resources as they felt that it wasn't worth it. After all, risking soldiers injured just to bring back a group that might not be alive anymore wasn't really worth the cost.

It gave her the shock of her life. They had been fighting together for a few years, but the general wanted her to abandon them and promoted her to shut her up. She was extremely furious at that time and immediately rushed back to her group, ignoring the order.

At that moment, she saw another group helping her group. After fighting for a few minutes, they managed to break through. She lost two of her comrades and took the rest back to the military base since the other party allowed her to do so.

Unfortunately, when she came back, all she got was punishment for disobeying an order. The same applied to her other comrades. They decided to defect to that group and infiltrated the military base for them.

The leader of this group was injured, so after hearing about Evan Young's ability, they staged a grand plan to kidnap him, and this was the moment.

Recalling their desperation and anger gave her heart another surge of determination. She punched her face once, causing a blue bruise to form right on her cheek.

She killed the two people that tried to apprehend her earlier. Surprisingly, she painted their blood on her to make her look heavily injured.

Before going out, eight people came in. "We have neutralized the people outside. Even so, there is a high chance that there will be a large number of soldiers that will try to attack us around the base."

"You guys take care of her," she said to the first four before looking toward the other four. "All of you, try to attack me when I get Evan Young, create a situation where it looks like I want to rescue him. Once we get away from the base, we'll retreat."

"Understood." All of them nodded and Risa immediately ran outside.

A few soldiers died in front of their computers because of the raid and they could hear the sound of magic clashes.

Most of the soldiers didn't know what happened. They could only see that they were attacked by their own comrades. Still, some others knew about this and immediately tried to fight back, creating a battle between soldiers.

After knowing that they were terrorists, the ignorant soldiers immediately helped to fight back.

On the other hand, Ayaka already arrived at Evan's room, sweating because of the rush. "Are you all right?"

Evan nodded his head, sighing. "Yes. Hearing all these sounds, I can tell that there are quite a lot of terrorists around here. In fact, I wonder how you will fight all of these elite soldiers…"

"Since you were given this room, they'll certainly come here. We're going to go to another place first," Ayaka firmly said.

"I know." Evan nodded. "I will follow you."

Kai didn't give her any suggestions about this, so she could only say. "It'll be better for us to get out of this chaotic situation… we should go north."

The best she could think of was to go to Kai's location, but it was also the most logical answer. Kai already said to treat all of them as terrorists until proven otherwise, so it would be better to escape from the 'terrorist base' and go to the friend they could trust.

Evan Young nodded and started walking, but the door was opened by someone else. It was the injured Risa.

"We need to run!" Risa shouted while acting like she was in pain. "I managed to escape from the general, but she will come here soon. We need to leave this place."

Seeing this appearance made them believe her for a second before they remembered what Kai said. In fact, if there were Kai here, he would immediately realize that she was lying. For an injured person that rushed into this place, her heartbeat was too slow. At that time, Kai would instantly act to approach her before killing her.

In this situation, Ayaka recalled another thing that Kai previously told her. He said to fake her trust, so she decided to play along while trying to see whether she was a terrorist or not.

"Hurry up!" Risa shouted.

Ayaka immediately grabbed Evan's arm and dragged him away. They were following Risa, confusing Evan who was dragged along.

"It's them!"

They suddenly heard a voice from behind. Turning their heads, they could see four people with the same military clothes as Risa. One of them immediately made a magic circle and shot out a purple lightning strike toward Evan, trying to paralyze him.

Risa simply came in between and raised a magic shield to block that attack. "We need to get out of the base."

She shouted as she constantly blocked the incoming attacks while Ayaka and Evan ran outside.

They could see how chaotic it was on the outside. They could see explosions and dying soldiers all over the place, making them wonder why they would do such a thing despite having the same enemy.

Ayaka could only shake her head, wondering what to do. It seemed as though Risa and those attackers were not on the same side, so she tried to figure which one she should trust.

Sadly, she took too long thinking and they had arrived outside the base safely. The instant they came out, Risa immediately raised her speed, catching up to Ayaka and Evan. Neither of them realized until she was right behind Ayaka and took out her gun.

She aimed the gun right in front of her head, pulling the trigger.

Evan felt that something was off and turned his head, only to see this. "Kudo Ayaka!"

Ayaka turned her head and opened her mouth in surprise, looking at the gun's muzzle as well as Risa's smirk. She could only think, "Kai…"0

Bam!
