Chapter 11 - In Action

Anna came to Axel's room after finishing his orders.

"All meetings until lunchtime have been rescheduled, Sir." Report Anna.

"Good job, Anna, thanks."

"No need to thank me, it's my job, Sir." Reply to Anna

"Oh yeah, since you canceled a lot of meetings this morning, are you going out, Sir? Do you need me to drop you off?" Anna asked.

"Yes, I will go but you don't need to accompany me," Axel said trying to act normal so as not to be suspected. Because honestly hiding something from Anna was a troublesome thing.

"Sorry, but where are you going?" Anna asked very curiously.

"Anna, don't ask too many questions, I'm not in the mood to receive too many questions."

"I understand," Anna said obediently.

"I'm going first, please take care of business here while I'm gone." Axel's absolute undeniable command.

"Yes, Sir."

"Oh yeah, here's the car keys. I'll drive the other one." Axel handed his car keys to Anna.

"Okay, Sir," Anna said obediently, without saying much.

"Are you ready to die, Mr. Edward Walker?" The chief said disdainfully. Edward smiled lopsidedly.

"Is it true that I will die here?"

"You sound very arrogant. No matter how good you are, can you beat us alone?"

"We'll never know until we do, right?" Edward said confidently.

"Up!" The chief had given the order.

The men in black advanced in unison as if impatient to finish off their target. But don't think Edward has any power. He had calculated his strength and he felt quite capable of taking out at least ten people in no time.

The sound of hitting was heard without pause. So far Edward is still able to withstand attacks even though he doesn't attack too much. Edward wiped his sweat.

'Shit! They're tougher than I thought.' Edward cursed in his heart.

"I have to make an attack or I'll run out of steam before fighting," Edward said confidently.

In a short time, he had been able to read their attack pattern, which was Edward's strength. Then that would make it easier for Edward.

Edward punched one person's jaw first then kicked another person's head then followed by stepping on another person's chest as a stepping stone to jump and finally Edward hit the fourth man's head from above. Not wanting to waste the opportunity, Edward simultaneously killed the four men until finally, the four men in black fell.

The enemy chief was quite surprised.

"You're great too. We'll see if you'll have the same luck after this." The chief was babbling again.

"Up!" The chief called out again. They attack together.

This time Edward didn't want to just hold back the attack, he had to turn around as much as possible.

Edward hit one person many times until the person who was hit was helpless, after which Edward threw the person into a group of them.

Edward chased after the person who was hit and beat him all at once. Two enemies have fallen again.

Edward glanced briefly at his watch. In twenty minutes he could only defeat six enemies. Slightly off the mark.

'Shit! I've lost quite a bit of strength. They're pretty tough.' Edward wiped his temples.

'But I won't give up.' His heart was burning with encouragement for himself.

Edward kicked one person in the stomach then hit the person in the groin with his knee. Leaving the enemy who was in pain, Edward turned to tidy up the two other people who had grabbed his hand. It seemed they wanted to gang up on Edward at once. But unluckily, they both had to fall following the six of his herd who had fallen first.

Eight. There were still twelve more opponents but Edward was starting to gasp for air.

'Looks like I haven't been exercising much lately.' Edward grumbled to himself.

Edward let his guard down a bit so his jaw got one kick.

"Tch." Edward chuckled. He wiped the salty red liquid from his lips.

"Eight people are indeed worth one hit," Edward said.

Edward's words succeeded in producing enemies. They were getting more and more tantrums as their numbers were getting less and less. Edward floated his feet in the air and managed to hit two heads at once.

The next second Edward attacked the two men from the opposite direction of the first attack. Then Edward grabbed the collar of one of them, hitting him in the stomach until the enemy vomited blood and used one leg to stomp on the other.

Ten enemies have fallen. Edward gasped.

It seems that their leader feels disapproved. The chief pulled out his gun and fired one shot.

Dorr!

And the bullet managed to hit Edward's left hand.

"Ahh...!"

A bad feeling came to Anna. She felt something tightly in his chest. Her mind was messed up. She couldn't focus on his work.

Anna couldn't stay still, she finally thought of going to Edward in his room. But apparently, Edward was not there.

"That's right. I haven't seen the bridge of his nose since we parted." Anna muttered. More and more questions swirled around Anna's head.

"Axel brought the other car, that means he will fight," Anna muttered, remembering that the weapons facilities in Axel's private car were more complete than what Anna was used to. By acting smart, Anna immediately searched for Edward's whereabouts.

Although Anna is very curious about Axel's whereabouts, Axel can't be tracked under these circumstances.

Meet. Anna has found Edward's location. With a quick movement, Anna took the car keys on the table and immediately rushed over. All she can think of right now is, hopefully, she doesn't come too late.

"This must have something to do with Yeesho." Guess Anna was right on target.

***

Anna had arrived at Edward's place. But there was no Axel there. Anna wonders where exactly is Axel?

Before getting off, Anna replaced her high heels with the boots she always provided in the car.

According to Anna's observations, Edward must have been exhausted. Anna came down with all the preparations. When Anna had only taken two steps forward, gunshots sounded in the ears "Ahh...!" The bullet hit Edward's left arm.

Anna clenched tightly, she couldn't stand seeing Edward receive a shot. Edward also has a gun, but he won't use it unless the enemy provokes him.

But after this don't blame Edward if they will get their reward one by one.

The gun in Edward's hand was kicked by one of the enemies. They seem to know that Edward is a sniper. They were scared when Edward pulled out his gun.

"Unlucky!" Edward said furiously. He felt a little threatened.

"Hold on, Ed," Anna whispered.

Anna stepped quickly and kicked an enemy who was about to advance towards Edward.

The man bounced back showing a surprised expression because of someone who had just arrived, namely the arrival of Anna.

"Anna!" Edward was no less surprised by the man who was hit by Anna's kick earlier.

"Why are you here?" Edward asked frantically.

"No need to be so surprised. Do you think you can hide something from me?" Anna replied sharply. Edward chuckled.

"There's nothing to hide from you," Edward replied.

Anna threw a gun at Edward and he caught it just right.

"We'll kill them together," Anna exclaimed then came forward. Let the enemy behind be taken care of by Edward with his gun.
