Chapter 457
Chapter 457: Ash corps briefing.
The reception room of the carriage rental building also served as a runway for rented carriages to both leave and enter the building.
When Blake stepped out of the spatial tear and saw his team hiding behind the pillars of the building.
“Why are you guys hiding instead of wiping them out?” Blake asked shocking his team.
‘How? Where did he come from?’ His team unanimously asked as they reinforced their barriers.
“Clean this up, I still have to return to the other side. Also, don’t destroy the building.” Blake said as both swords in his hands moved out and transformed into black and snow-white wolves.
AWOO!
Both king-rank wolves howled causing all fire and water spells to change direction and return to the casters.
…..
‘Are those king-rank beasts?’
The team couldn’t help but ask as waves of fire and ice erupted from both wolves and precisely wiped out all the gang members in the room.
‘Are my eyes playing tricks on me?’ The entire team was star-struck because everything that just happened now seemed unreal.
From appearing out of a portal to summoning 2 king-rank beasts that instantly killed more than 40 people. This was the story that could only be heard when high-ranking ash corps went into the field!
“Ivory stay here and make sure no one escapes the building, Ebony come with me.” Blake said as Ebony returned to his sword form, but that was when he saw that his team were not moving.
“Why are you all standing there? Take care of those that would be coming soon and clear out their hideout, while I wipe them out from the other side.” Blake said to his team, but that was when Ivory shot out shards of ice.
Ahh!
The scream of a gang member being impaled by the ice shards echoed from deeper parts of the building. 𝐛𝐨𝘃𝗹.
“Good girl!” Blake petted Ivory before walking into a spatial tear that took him back to the horse barn.
“…”
The 10 ash corps couldn’t help but stare at the snow-white wolf that had taken a resting position.
“Hope it won’t attack us?” A female ash corp asked, but that was when they began hearing footsteps coming in their direction.
The footsteps soon came to a halt before changing to sprints. The gang members had not only seen the dozens of corpses, but they had seen the king-rank beast that was responsible for their deaths.
“Isn’t it going to do anything?” Yavin asked as Ivory’s eyes were still shut.
“The captain gave an order, so why are we still wasting time.” Radley said as he began chasing the escaping gang members.
…
When Blake returned to the barn, instead of entering the entrance he decided to wait.
‘The entire area is now quiet, so it’s just a matter of time till the rest realizes that everyone has been wiped out.’ Blake thought.
He was right because in less than 5 minutes gang members were running out of the hideout and waiting for them was the grim reaper himself.
…
Once it was confirmed that every gang members in the building were dead, Blake took back Ivory before calling in the normal ash corps to take care of the scene.
With that done, the special ops team which had just successfully completed their first mission returned to the square to give reports on the mission.
In Blake’s report, apart from mentioning how he carried the entire team. He made sure to highlight the weakness of his team and request some time to train them before going on another mission.
After submitting the report, Blake went to the cafeteria for dinner before returning to his house and calling it a day.
…
When Blake reported for work the next day he was informed about a meeting with commander Darius and all captains in the next 2 hours.
“I wonder what the meeting would be about.” Blake thought.
That was when a message from Darius reached him; permitting him to go ahead with his team training. Seeing this Blake wasted no time informing his team about a training session that would take place after lunch.
After that, it didn’t take long for the time for the meeting to reach. Blake left his office and warped to the top floor before going to the briefing hall.
On entering the hall Blake could see both captains and their second-in-command. Some of the captains were conversing with fellow captains, while some were seated and patiently waiting for the meeting to begin.
‘I wonder who my second-in-command should be. It would not be Yavin, for the fact that he made such a mistake means that he is not someone that thinks outside the box.’ Blake thought but it was then that he sensed someone coming from behind.
“You can’t be here without your captain, so leave now and come back with him.”
Blake turned to see a solidly-built man in his mid-twenties. The man was 6’2ft tall with cream skin color, distrustful dark brown eyes, a triangular face and a pointed chin.
His white hair, thin hips, and glossy skin were a dead giveaway that he was from a wealthy background.
“…”
Without saying a word Blake pointed at his captain badge before turning around and walking away.
This shocked everyone that saw the scene because everyone his age that was currently in the room was all lieutenants.
It was then that they remember about the newly graduated strongest student of the empire, Blake.
As for the white-haired captain that approached Blake, not only was he shocked like the rest but he felt embarrassed by his failed attempt to bully a lower-ranking ash corp.
He couldn’t do anything about it especially since special ops captains were slightly higher than them in rank. So all he could do was take a seat and wait for the meeting to begin.
