At his desk, the general thought of the soldiers who could sneak into the castle and rescue the prisoners. First, he needed one or more soldiers for this task who could distinguish who was primar and who was secondar.
A damned feudal lord was out of control with his rage, and the general was holding himself back so that he would not go after the fool called Gonzales personally and crush his head. Suddenly he remembered the soldier he sent as an envoy and thought how good he was.
After figuring out how the soldiers sneak into the castle and deploy the soldiers to set free the captives, he put his elbows on the table and clasped his hands on his chin. He thought who could quickly destroy Gonzales the fools under his command.
He could have sent Number 4 alone, but that crazy woman would not discriminate between the innocent. There were also civilians living in Gonzales' castle.
He could not use Number 1 in such a limited area. Although he quickly gathered a few people from the first fifty, they could act independently in conflict due to differences of opinion, which could lead to casualties.
The Married Couple was the best to keep things under their control, but he remembered that they were both on a mission.
He scratched his head with his biological hand since his mechanical one's junction started to ache already. His ache reminded him of something.
He looked at her daughter and called out her name, "Reira..."
Reira looked at her father.
"I have to call a soldier, but I can't use official ways. No one will know who will take care of this, except you, me, and the envoy who will take him there," said, General.
After a moment of surprise, she said "O-Okay..." and muttered "Zal..."
Immediately after, the door knocked. An elegant woman with blond hair almost white entered the room. She said, "Yes Ma'am."
She was Reira's special assistant. General gave her the number of military post that she needs go and take the soldier. She was also known as "Green Bood".
...
After twenty minutes, Green Blood was ubiquitously standing right before him. Before giving her orders, General was listening to the instant reports from the soldiers who had sneaked in the castle from a transmitter with earphones and reconsidering the plan.
Green Blood did not yet know why she had been summoned. Meanwhile, Reira examined her file.
As Reira expected, she was one of 2571 Graduates. Reira knew that the group had very powerful members, but no one in the organization knew their specialties and who they really were, but her father.
She could not help but wonder how this little woman would handle this task. A moment later, the door was knocked again. The person who came was the other soldier called.
After giving General military salute, the soldier turned to Reira saluted her sincerely without being noticed.
Soldier 16 of SOU, Abraham, nicknamed Howling Wind, was a close friend of the two eldest of the Miler Brothers. Without delay, he took his place beside Green Blood and started to wait for orders from General.
After a while, General raised his head and said, "Abraham, your mission is to take this soldier to Gonzales' castle and take her back here within 24 hours." said.
Abraham immediately said, "Yes sir!"
Then General turned to Green Blood, said, "Gonzales has seven loyal soldiers under his command. Don't come back without killing those seven and Gonzales."
Green Blood did not say anything at first. She knew that General's speech was not over.
However, Reira thought that due to such a tough task, the soldier remained silent because she was hesitating which was very natural according to Reira.
After a while, General said, "When you enter the castle, your restriction will be lifted. You have 4 hours to kill all eight. Even if you can't kill them after 4 hours are up, you won't be able to exceed 50% of their abilities."
Neither Abraham nor Reira understood what General was talking about.
"Yes sir," said Green Blood in a calm tone.
Reira was surprised after her thoughts about hesitating and looked at the soldier. The soldier was ordered to destroy only. She did not even ask 'for what?" or did not think if she succeeded or hesitated.
Abraham was surprised too. When he heard the order given to Green Blood he thought "Maybe the organization wants her dead."
...
Because Abraham's father got infected by a virus from a horse, Abraham inherited his ability as a secondar to turn into a horse whenever and wherever he wanted to. Even in his was normal form, he had a long mane that went from his hair to his waist, and his ears were pointed.
In his secondar state, he could speed up to 380 kilometers per hour. This made him the perfect undercover messenger, as he was discreet and knew the world's most populated places and shortcuts.
The number of the first 100 soldiers in the organization did not change easily, and Abraham was Number 16 for almost 150 years.
He took Green Blood somewhere out of sight of the watchmen in Gonzales' castle. This was a large seigniory set between a valley in the mountains of southwest Europe, known in the ancient world as the Iberian Mountains.
He positioned himself where he could see the castle from above with binoculars and waited for Green Blood.
"She would probably die there, and I would have waited for nothing. Anyway, due to my duty, I must wait 24 hours. When the time is up, I'll go and report." he thought.
About half an hour later, a loud explosion sounded from the castle. Abraham jumped up from the tree he was leaning against and looked down at the castle compound.
He did not need binoculars to see the fire. Some screams could reach his ears. Then there was another explosion, and then the rising smoke became more intense.
Abraham was undecided whether to go to the castle or not. It was not his job to save. He decided to wait.
Half an hour later, the sun was about to set, and he saw the woman coming from the road she had taken.
She was holding the sword Gonzales never left in her hands. The sword gleamed in the setting sun. Neither the woman nor the sword had the appearance of they had fought because there was no blood.
The woman was coming. As the woman got closer, her features became clearer. The woman was smiling...
