" Your mission would be to go in the village into the mountains region where the mines are located.
These mines are where we get our minerals to create our swords for the kingdom which were managed by the Day clan!
As the main smithing clan of the kingdom, they not only managed these mines, they also had to create and distribute these weapons all across our kingdom which would also generate a huge sum of money.
And even with the strict rules of the clan and the kingdom itself, there are always those people that gets blinded by greed.
Day Moryo, one of the people that manages the mines was promoted as a distributor of the weapons.
And with the distribution, the payment was also tasked to him to deliver it back, and well... He didn't and he managed to get some help from another kingdom. How he did it, we are still investigating.
We didn't know that he had someone helping him from another kingdom, and we have already sent a squad to eliminate Moryo, but his affiliate gets the job very hard to accomplish!
So now, the three of you are tasked to eliminate not just Moryo, but also the Count Byron Capelle of Dawn Kingdom in the Sunrise City!"
"!!!"
Eiji and the others were stunned.
This was a long term mission and they were even tasked to infiltrate another kingdom! And it was a Count! A Count!
As a middle to a high level noble, counts has their own lands, they are also allowed to raise their own army! And depending on what business or connections they have, they would have a great political power in the kingdom!
"Do not worry, you will be joining with the two other teams, the one who is currently chasing Moryo, the back up team when the chase to another kingdom was on, and you three, the back up of the back up!
Even then, you still have to do your best to eliminate the targets, failure is not an option, the king was not happy knowing a large sum of money and resources were stolen in front of the kingdom itself!
This Mission is rated as an S rank! Now go and Prepare! A scroll would be given to you three with more information not just Moryo but the kingdom of Dawn also!
Dismissed!"
""Yessir!!!""
*Swoooshh!
The three of them vanished as they ran at full speed.
Knowing that the target was at the kingdom of Dawn, they knew they would be gathering at the North gate of the City, what they need to do now is to get their things back and get going!
---
The three of them arrived at the North gate of the city.
They actually didn't have that much to get in their houses as they already have everything prepared in their treasure pouch, but they kinda have to inform their families that they have a long term mission!
When the three of them met at the gates, they just ran swiftly through the road, then taking the short route through the forests as the scroll given to them had a map with routes.
"Eiji, Marco, the target we have to eliminate is already at the kingdom of Dawn, and with our pace we would arrive there in two days, that includes short rests!"
Both nodded at their heads, Akai was given the scroll of information as he was the one with the commander, so he briefed them on what the contents of the mission was.
" When we arrive at the kingdom, we would be gassed out, so first we have to meet with the first two teams, the first team only has two members, but they are a long time veterans of the department, while the other one was thankfully, Gautam! So we could have some sort of cooperation between us!"
"Okay! Two veterans and then Gautam! This mission should be very difficult eh?!"
Marco said.
"Hmm! By now, Moryo should already be in the Sunrise City being protected by the Count.
And from what the information said, he has a 500+ swordsman at his disposal!"
"5-500!!!!??"
Marco was shocked and so was Eiji!
500 swordsman! Even if they might be ragtags or just normal people without knowing how to use ki, that would still exhaust them, maybe even to death!
"Hmm! And not just that, Count Byron Capelle has two Master level swordsman as a Guard, these guards were his best friends back when he was still in the academy of his kingdom, and even though they were just normal civilians, he saw their talent and invested in them, now he has two high level swordsman as a guard and not to forget the fact that Count Byron Capelle is also and Elite Level swordsman himself!"
"This... This is hard eh... Why the hell should we even do this man?! Are we going to war?!"
Marco asked in tired.
"No! You should know that we can't have wars right now!"
"Then why?!!!"
"Well.. according to the scroll, the kingdom wants to know why the Dawn kingdom, specifically, Count Byron Capelle had the guts to steal from us when we actually have a truce as well as an agreement as allies!"
Akai said somberly.
"Okay.. so something is happening?!"
Eiji asked.
"I don't know.. but we should hurry up in case there is something that's really happening!"
"Alright!"
Marco and Eiji nodded at Akai as they sped up towards their destination!
*Swoooshh!!!
*End Of Chapter.
