Heavenly Saga

Chapter 283: Reconnaissance

After being chosen as the captain of the golden unit, Kraftvoll decided to choose Prince Aragorn and Princess Kyomi as his First Lieutenant and Second Lieutenant.

After Regimental Commander Kyleen dismissed them, Kraftvoll decided to talk privately with his Second Brother.

After explaining his side about choosing him as his First Lieutenant, Kraftvoll said to the elven prince, "Now that you know my reason for choosing you, I want you to promise me one thing."

"It depends on the promise, First Brother," Prince Aragorn to his First Brother.

The elven prince was a man of his promise. That's why he only promise things that he knew that he would be able to comply especially that were people important to him.

Despite knowing his Second Brother, Kraftvoll continued to insist on the elven prince saying, "No. Promise me right now that you will do it. I know that you trust that I would never ask you anything impossible for you to do."

After thinking for a few moments, the elven prince agreed to Kraftvoll's request to him. Before saying anything, Kraftvoll took a long sigh to ready himself for what he was about to say to his sworn brother.

A moment later, he said to the elven prince, "When I command you to go back without me, you must lead the others back at all cost. When there's someone who refuses to do so, use the necessary force to bring them back with you."

It was the very thing that the elven prince was expecting that Kraftvoll would say which is the main reason why he was reluctant to say yes earlier. He wanted to say no at the present but he already gave his word so he refrained from refusing.

"Okay, Second Brother. You have my word. Since you are my superior, I would naturally follow your every command." said the elven prince to Kraftvoll.

After his Second Brother accepted his request, Kraftvoll could not help but be happy with the situation. After all, he knew how bad war can be based on his own experience.

After losing his family to that gruesome attack of the Dark Alliance in Schild city seven years ago, Kraftvoll's sense of comradeship became like his sense to his family.

After coming to an agreement, both the elven prince and Kraftvoll decided to go to their class's camp to prepare for departure. Since it was a Reconnaissance mission, Kraftvoll and the others decided to pack only the essential things on their mission.

After all, if they ever need to flee, they need to do it as swiftly as they can which they can't do with heavy baggage on their backs.

Before the 6 in the evening came, Kraftvoll and the other finally finished their preparation. With that in his mind, Kraftvoll decided to give a little speech to his subordinates before they began doing their mission objectives.

"Before we go, I am just going to tell all of you something. War is not something you need to underestimate. Even though we only have a Reconnaissance mission this time, all of our lives are still in danger. Remember the mission's priority, all of us must return alive! Okay, then. Let us go!" said Kraftvoll before their departure.

'That trial of light is really something. My boyfriend became this cautious because of that trial. I will come and try it as well when I become strong someday,' Belle thought to herself after seeing Kraftvoll's cautiousness. 

Kraftvoll only told everyone about the fact that he failed at the first trial given by the great being, The Valkyrie. He only told this information to his girlfriend, Belle, even though he did not tell it to his master, the king of Walkiria Kingdom.

As they walked toward the exit of the military base, Kraftvoll decided to remind his subordinates of something before they finally departed. He said to them, "The moment we came out of that gate, all of you are my subordinates. Do everything as I ordered it. Or else you will be receiving a court-martial offense the moment we came back."

Although they knew that was the case, they, except the elven prince and Belle, were still a little shocked by what they heard from their captain. After a few moments of pondering, they realized that it was because of the severeness of the situation.

Their expression became even more serious. The other five became aware of the real seriousness of the situation. After all, the easy-going Kraftvoll even decided to say such words to them.

Upon exiting the military camp, they were greeted by their seishin beast partners on their way. All of them wanted to follow their own master but the mission of their masters was a reconnaissance one.

With that in his mind, Kraftvoll decided not to bring them. After all, the majesty of these seishin beast partners of theirs would attract needless attention so not bringing them was the ideal one.

"I'm sorry but we will bring all of you next time we need your strength," said Kraftvoll as he and the others stopped in front of their seishin beast partners. 

Ouryuu and the others wanted to really join them but due to their owners' command, they refrained from doing so.

After that was settled, Kraftvoll decided to activate his blue seishin aura before he chanted a seishin spell.

A moment later, he chanted at the top of his lungs, "Ye who symbolizes the purification of the world, I require thee, hide thy master from this world full of pain, Cloak Mirage!" 

The moment Kraftvoll began uttering his chant, an immense amount of blue seishin essences from his surroundings started gathering around him. Midway through his chant, those blue seishin essences turned into vapors of water one by one as Kraftvoll was chanting.

Instead of condensing together, the water vapor began covering Kraftvoll and the others until they evaporated due to the heat that radiates from the surroundings. This caused an effect that made Kraftvoll and the others invisible from the naked eyes.

"Since the night is only upon us, let's use this seishin spell to conceal ourselves. Later, Second lieutenant Kyomi and I will conjure Shadow Cloak seishin spell to hide when the darkness entered the sky."

After saying that to his teammates, Kraftvoll decided to conjure another seishin spell to make their journey easier. Before chanting, Kraftvoll was suddenly enveloped with a green seishin aura.

At the next moment, Kraftvoll chanted at the top of his lungs, "As the exemplar of the power of the spirit in sustaining life, I adjure thee, let thy conjurer feel the ambiance of your power, Sky Soar!"

As Kraftvoll was chanting those words, the green seishin essences from his surroundings began gathering around him. At the end of his chant, those green seishin essences that he gathered turned into bodies of translucent air that lifted him and the others through the sky.

Invisible to the naked eye, Kraftvoll and all of his subordinates soared through the sky. 

When the sun completely left the horizon, Kraftvoll's Cloak Mirage seishin spell completely disappeared because there is no heat that made him and the others invisible. 

As soon as the Cloak Mirage seishin spell faded, Kraftvoll decided to activate his black seishin aura before conjuring another seishin spell.

Kraftvoll chanted at the top of his lungs, "As the symbol of the mysteries of the world, I instruct thee, envelop me by your gloominess, Shadow Cloak!"

As soon as Kraftvoll began chanting, an immense amount of black seishin essences started gathering around him as well. In the middle of his chant, those black seishin essences transformed into shadow particles that later on covered all of them.

After conjuring the Shadow Cloak seishin spell, Kraftvoll and the others became invisible to the naked eyes since the darkness covered the whole land as of this moment. 

When they settled that, Kraftvoll and the others decided to continue their journey to the Quietus Ravine for a Reconnaissance mission.

Kraftvoll and the others went as silent as they could until they reached their destination. After all, they wanted to avoid getting any attention that would compromise their mission.

After reaching their destination, Kraftvoll decided to whisper his command to all of his subordinates. He whispered to them, "Let's separate from each other to gather more information. Let's go by pair. Belle and I would go to the front part of the ravines. The rest of you can pick where you want."

"Aredhel and I would take the eastern part to gather information, captain," said Princess Kyomi after hearing Kraftvoll.

The next person to answer was the elven prince. He said to Kraftvoll, "If that's the case, I will take the western part with Adelle, captain."

After hearing the other two pairs, Godwin and Sabina looked at each other. Despite not seeing each other due to the Shadow Cloak seishin spell, the two nodded at each other.

Sabina was the one who answered between the two. She said to Kraftoll, "We will take the southern part of the ravine then, captain."
