Adopted Soldier

Chapter 364

Dan Regius the most powerful hand to hand fighter in the squad was now standing on top of tree gathering his strength . He stood there waiting for the enemy base to arrive, for he was the one who was going to signal the start of the operation . Now that he was in this position, now that he was so near his goal of rescuing his daughter, Dan felt nervous . This was the first time he ever felt this way since he lost some of his memories . The famed blond devil who knew no fear was now feeling weird inside .

Dan then noticed his hands were trembling, but not because of the usual excitement he gets before a battle, instead his hands were shaking due to his anxiety . Seeing his trembling hands Dan clenched his fist trying to stop them from shaking .

’Damn it! I’m getting scared?! I’m so close to saving my daughter, and now am I actually getting cold feet?! This is unacceptable!’

As the anger in himself rose Dan suddenly bit the back of his left hand . He bit hard enough that it started bleeding . The pain from the bite was really helping Dan to relax . Once he was calm enough Dan started to control his breathing .

’I can’t be too tense or it might affect the mission . The more anxious I get makes my chances of saving my daughter lessen . I need to be calm, I need to treat this like any other mission . . . ’

Dan was finally able to calm down as he waited for the base to come to his direction .

. . .

Carlo was standing by with the others as they waited for Dan’s signal . While he was waiting he took out a photo of his family, in the photo was Michel holding onto two babies, beside her was Lilitth smiling ever so cutely, while Carlo was standing behind them . In this photo, only one person was missing .

He was finally going to rescue his son who had been missing for a year now . Based on the stories he used to hear from his friend Clara, Carlo couldn’t even begin to imagine the torture Alex had to go through this past year .

Carlo gritted his teeth, as he clenched his open hand .

’Don’t worry Alex, I’m going to rescue you now . When we get back I want you to meet your new baby brother and sister . Also, Lilitth has always been waiting for you . Today is the day I fulfill my promise, I will bring you back no matter what . ’

Carlo’s determination was now blazing, he felt that no matter what the enemy throws at him, he would surely be victorious .

. . .

Matthew who was waiting for the signal was talking to his cat Leo .

"I’m sorry buddy, but I need you to stay here . If you come with me, I won’t be able to protect you when the fighting starts . So you better stay here, cause if anything happens to you . . . Nevermind, you just need to stay here okay . "

The cat then looked up at Matthew, and as if he understood him answered with a meow .

"Good boy . " Once he was done talking to his cat, Matthew started to check his equipment one more time . Making sure that everything is working properly will allow him to see if he would be able to survive this ordeal or simply die a dog’s death .

When he was done checking his equipment, Matthew noticed Carlo looking at a photo . It was his family, but there was no Alex in it .

’Hmm, I guess I can understand his side, not wanting this rescue mission to fail . . . But still, I truly believe I should be one of the people infiltrating the base . . . Also, why are they so anxious? If Alex and the others die, then that’s it they’re dead . Everyone dies at some point, especially those who are this line of work . Death should be a constant friend . Even a monster like Lyner and my teacher had met their end in this war . Still, I didn’t cry or grieved when I learned of my teacher’s death, unlike Alex . . . The only thing I didn’t like was that the people treated Lyner’s death as a much bigger deal than my teacher’s death . He literally killed half of the enemy’s main power and his funeral wasn’t as fancy as Lyner’s . . . ’

As Matthew’s thoughts were shifting towards a different topic from his initial thoughts, he suddenly felt the ground trembling . After a few more seconds he heard a loud explosion coming from Dan’s location . Matthew then saw a cloud of dirt rise to the sky, this was the signal for the mission to start .

"EVERYONE GET READY! This might be our final mission, so I just want to say it’s been an honor fighting beside every one of you . . . NOW LET’S MOVE OUT!"

After Carlo gave his command he and the rest started sprinting towards Dan’s location .

. . .

Dan who had punched the ground with all his strength was now hiding as he waited for the others . Once Carlo and the others arrived they started attacking the now resurfaced base of the Shadow Mercenaries . A few seconds after that a torrent of people came out of the base . Carlo, Viktor, Sora, Luke, and Matthew started luring these people away from the base .

When he saw an opening Dan silently sneaked into the base . Kyle who also saw that opening came right after him . Once the two were inside, they went into radio silence as they looked at each other .

The two then nodded their heads at each other, this was the signal which started phase 3 of the plan . Dan and Kyle showed their watches to one another, once they confirmed that their watches were in sync they went their separate ways to find the missing children, and after searching for an hour no matter if they find them or not, they needed to converge back at the entrance .

Kyle was running sneaking around the base trying to avoid detection from the security cameras felt his spine tingle . His instincts kicked in and without even thinking about it he ducked .

A needle flew by, as Kyle tried to get some distance . He then looked behind him and saw that enticing deadly beauty that was Amica smiling at him .

"Oh, you came to see me again, I knew that you love me . "
