Chapter 22 - A Spy?

"I- I see, so that's how it is Tanya. You were a member from Zoilas squad? Ha ha" Ares chuckled and coughs blood as he turns around to face her.

Tanya stands with a different attire than her soldier dress and is giving a really cold look towards Ares as her hand grips on the whip sword in her hand. She pulls the whip sword back slashing the flesh of Ares from inside. She looks very dominating and no traces of emotion can be seen from her cold aura.

"Don't hold a grudge on me in your afterlife Ares, I'm not a spy of other nation. What Zoilas uttered in pure fear is true. He is from Aztec I'm his messenger, I was ordered to do this." Tanya says to Ares without any hint of remorse or sadness in her tone.

"I see, so it's our own generals that wants me dead? I see. Anyway, I'm happy that atleast you are alive of our squad Tanya... *Coughh!!* I'm happy, but don't go after the village." Ares says with relief as his body falls to the ground.

Tanya was not ready for the words, she just cut this man's flesh and yet he still was treating her as his friend and forgave her? Is the reliever expression on his face denotes that he is happy to die in her hands so that he won't kill more people in his future as he rank up in the military?

"We agreed to wipe out Mindoro as a part of our deal with the Caracus village. The deal happened when the Caracus saw our power, when we wiped out Sable as our first target. Caracus after witnessing our powers begged to be spared and that they will help us in killing you and in return we burn Mindoro to ashes. But, now that the caracus is wiped out, I don't care about Mindoro anymore. Still I didn't think it would come down to me to kill you, you are too powerful." Tanya tells to Ares with a tear falling from the side of her eyes and she turns her face away from Ares to not let him see her tears dropping.

Sable was wiped out at first to see the weapons and the powers the people use on this island. And for the good of the soldiers the Islanders only use natural weapons without any strategies. However Caracus witnessed the power of Zoilas and his army and they beg Zoilas to spare them in exchange, they need to help Zoilas kill Ares.

Both of the parties agreed to it and sent an official and guards to Mindoro to lure them by asking them for their help, but after witnessing the power of Ares in Mindoro against the guard with the blade who was about to kill Gus, the soldiers and villagers of caracus came up with a plan of Making the Mindoro and Ares wait for days and nights without any sleep. They try to gain Mindoro's trust, make them weak and make them drop their guards against them and then they would begin the slaughtering of Mindoro as per their plan, taking advantage of sleepless soldiers who has lost their ability to think and fight due to dizziness and attacking at the most unexpected time.

Ares lays on the ground lifeless, Tanya walks up to him, sits on her knees, grabs and places the head of Ares on her lap and brushes his hair while her tears keep rolling down on the face of Ares.

"It was hard on me Ares, forgive me.. forgive me.. forgive me." Tanya begs for a few minutes and she then wipe away any traces of her tears from her face and then leaves the island to report the successful plan of wiping out Ares with the whole island.

Mars, Gus and the rest arrive at the scene of horror and are left in disbelief. There are corpses of more than 1000 people lying on the ground with blood under their feet. Gus pulls himself together and starts searching for Ares and his villagers  desperately believing that they are alive.

*"They are alive, they are alive, why am I getting sad at seeing this. They are really alive, because they have Ares with them. He will keep them alive no matter what"* Gus was having a panic attack, but he keeps running and searching wildly hoping to not be wrong and giving himself the courage to believe all of his people were alive among the piles of dead bodies.

His leg stumbled upon a metal. It was the sword of Ares. The cloth wrapped around the sword is shredded and the sword lost all of it's divine brightness and it looks like a dull katana which cannot even cut a piece of paper. Gus eyes searches for nearby area and he comes across Alex lying dead with a smile on his face and beside him is Albert and Yang.  A few feet away from them is Edward, his face shows how scared and full of regret he was before dying. Gus couldn't hold himself together and cries out loud uncontrollably.

Mars and the villagers who just reaches the battlefield were heart broken at the sight of what they  witnessed and are left speechless.

The eyes of Gus suddenly catches something as he opens once more to make sure this wasn't a dream "huh?" The eyes of Gus catches a glimpse of something - "HE IS ALIVEE! COME HERE! I CAN FEEL HIS PULSE." Gus shouts out desperately.
