In a meeting room with different men and women seated together in an oval table which had main seat still empty.
This meeting room had a solemn atmosphere as the most people were all keeping silent and waiting for the person who was reserved the main seat to arrive.
The people in the room were all wearing military uniform, and the lowest badge you would find on these people was Captain rank.
'I think commander will most likely order the restart of the campaign, it is obvious as those three are showing themselves. It would not take long for us to take the final defence line with them around. I wonder if those people at the Main Academy have started with Grey's research.'
Captain Hans Ignocia turned towards three individuals that seemed to stand out from the rest of the people in this meeting room.
The three individual were two males and one female, they were the only tier 4 mages in the meeting room with Major Ranks.
The female tier 4 mage was currently having an argument with one of the tier 4 mages.
However the other tier 4 male mage did not seem to care much and just let them have their argument in front of the other people in the room.
However no other people seemed to have any courage to butt in to their argument, which had insults of different kinds.
The tier 4 mage who seemed to ignore the argument was an amicable looking man who seemed to be in his twenties, he had brown hair and grey coloured eyes.
This man just smiled as his tier 4 counterparts as they argued like children in front of the Captains in the meeting room.
However their argument did not continue as both the man and the woman turned towards the entrance of the meeting room.
"The Commander enters."
There was a shout just outside of the meeting room, the Captains and the three Majors all stood up and saluted towards Commander Alexandria Wells.
Alexandria entered the room with another person who seemed to be in her shadow and avoided attention and let Alexandria take the main attention.
"You all may relax."
Alexandria saluted back to the people and then dismissed their salutes.
Commander Wells went sat down in the main seat of the oval table, she observed the people in the table.
She nodded towards Captain Hans, who reciprocated with a smile and a nod.
Alexandria turned towards the amicable looking tier 4 man who was smiling.
"Alistair, how have you been doing? Still have that creepy smiling faces of yours?"
Alexandria gave a jab towards the smiling man, which made the fellow to have a twitch in his eyebrow.
"I am fine Commander Wells, just ready to do my duty."
The fellow responded with a safe answer, as he smile back.
"You have finally reached tier 4 and can now seat at the table with the big girls and boys?"
"Yes, I have reached tier 4 commander, the last time you saw us, we were still tier 3 Captains."
"Are you still taking care of these two bumbling idiots?"
Alexandria smiled as she pointed towards the two other tier 4 mages who had been arguing.
The young looking man called Alistair did not agree or disagree, he just smiled towards the Commander as his eyebrow twitched.
There was no other person who could call two tier 4 mages 'idiots' aside of the commander in the room.
There was no other person who was that brave, the other people in the room, who were the Captains just all kept quiet and let the tier 4 mages talked.
Even the tier 4 mages did not complain to Alexandria, whilst they were all tier 4 mages, their amount of experience was very different.
Alexandria was over 150 years when compared to them who were just over 90 years of age, thus she had more time to polish her magic to its highest potential.
"Mallory, how many spars have you won against Pierce since the last time I saw you three?"
Alexandria turned towards the two so called 'idiots'.
Mallory was a woman who like Alistair seemed to be in her twenties, she had short black hair that was neatly set with green eyes to match her black hair.
She seemed very athletic as some muscles showed from her military uniform, which gave her a special charm even though her face could not be called overly pretty.
"Commander, the win rate between this big asshole and myself is about 50%, that is the reason he is my rival."
Mallory had a glint in her eyes as she looked at Pierce who had a big body build with broad shoulders.
Pierce's red hair and beard made him look like a middle aged man even though he had the same age as Alistair and Mallory, which they seem to make fun off every time.
"Damn Battle Junkie!"
The big fellow commented as he saw the glint in Mallory's eyes, he knew she was already thinking about fighting.
"Sex maniac!"
Mallory would not take a loss, thus she shot back with a jab of her own.
This made Alistair facepalm as he saw his friends show such disgraceful sides in front of their Captains who would be their direct subordinates.
Though what Mallory had said about Pierce was true, this fellow had a harem of woman in his home, there were rumours saying that he liked to indulge in sex parties when he was off duty.
The two continued to exchange insults whilst Alexandria talked to Alistair about his family and other non military matters.
The person who had entered the meeting room behind Alexandria was the last tier 4 mage in the room, the person was a male Life special affinity mage that Alexandria got as her support.
The fellow had had an assuming face, he had black hair and blue eyes.
During the time they had arrived in the meeting room, the fellow had been trying not to stand out.
The fellow was a quiet individual who liked to scheme, and people like Mallory and Pierce annoyed him very much.
However his plan of staying hidden did not work, the three tier 4 mages had seen him when he entered with Alexandria, it was not like he was a concealment expert.
"Hey Ronald! Not going to say 'hello'?"
'Ah… The loud mouth Mallory still found me.'
"Major Mason, how do you do?"
"Ronald, we have known each other for many years, you can call me by name."
"I understand Major, but we still have to keep to military etiquette in these types of settings unless our subordinates will have the wrong impression."
"Really Ronald?"
Mallory had an annoyed face as she understood that the fellow did not like her one bit and was trying to keep away.
TING! TING! TING!
The room that was having the sounds of the tier 4 mages talking immediately went silent and solemn, it was time to start the combat meeting.
Even the loud mouths Mallory and Pierce had solemn faces as they waited for Commander Alexandria Wells to start.
"Everyone thank you for making it from your stations. During this war, we have always underestimated the Ruhenese, whether it was when they brought forward their trump card legion or when they unveiled their [Explosive Flux Cannon]."
Alexandria paused for a second and became nostalgic.
"But not anymore, what happened here, in position 2-003 will not happen again. I will be personally commanding the next phase of this war. The three commanders of three trump card units are here today, because I want you all to be aware of them. They will be leading in the front as we attack their final defence line, they will be the vanguard."
Alexandria turned to look at Mallory, Pierce and Alistair.
"I don't want the Ruhenese to think that we are not capable of giving them a beating. I want to see their blood flow, what happened in this position can only be reciprocated with blood."
Alexandria had a cold look in her eyes, the smiling face she had when talking to Alistair and the others was not there anymore, just a bloodthirsty beast.
The rest of the people in the room as if influenced by their leader, had the same eyes.
"Get your people ready, we advance tomorrow."
