“Hello, this is the Python military division headquarters speaking”. A calm but slightly monotonous voice finally broke the silence, after the call went through.
“Yes, this is Sergeant Clark. Please, connect me to the Captain immediately, this is urgent”. Clark quickly replied, before patiently waiting for feedback.
“Ok sir. I’m sorry for the slight delay, I just confirmed that the line is secure. Please wait for a minute, I’ll get back to you shortly”.
Silence reigned in the line, but Clark kept quiet patiently. After a short while, the call finally connected to the destination that he wanted.
“Bzzz!! This is Captain Daniel speaking. Clark, what is the urgent situation that you’re talking about?” The deep voice of the Captain finally echoed out, breaking the grave like
Thank you for reading this chapter, I really appreciate it.
This was Clark’s first time seeing soldiers from the Spartan army physically. He was excited and shocked, but this only served to increase his dread and anticipation for the reason for their visit.In a normal sense, the Python military division is just too small to attract visitors from this hegemon of the Spartan military. They were the rulers of anything military in the Spartan republic. The Spartan army is the number 1 military force of the Spartan republic. The Python military division and all other military organizations in the Spartan republic, are all under the banner of this huge behemoth.The leader of the Spartan army is a 5th ranked high-grade soldier, Commander Rashford. He is the Commander-in-chief of all military organizations in the republic, and he is the strongest soldier of the Spartan republic excluding the President
“Clark, this decision that you made is terribly wrong,” Leo could not help but say again for the 5th time, during the short time that he walked back with his friend.“Do you think your parents will be happy if they see you from heaven diving head deep into trouble because of them? Killing yourself for vengeance is just childish, that’s old school man”. He emphasized again.“Forget it, bro, there’s nothing you can do, I already made up my mind. If they really wanted me not to do this, then they wouldn’t have died in the first place”. Clark replied, as he quickly gathered and prepared his things. After a lot of fruitless continuous persuasion, Leo finally relented as he glared at Clark. He glowered fiercely at his friend, before finally saying with a sigh.“You do not have
Despite the Captain looking weirdly funny, the strength and power of this guy was the real deal. Clark’s mouth and heart were sealed completely when he learned that he was from the Spartan army.Unlike military divisions and organizations like the Python military division, the Spartan army refused to let most of its precious high-grade soldiers go for such a dangerous mission. The Spartan army brought only 20 soldiers, out of the needed 200 high-grade soldiers for the mission. That was already many, but compared to the army’s deep reserves, it was just a pinch of salt.Clark also learned some news about General Bakash. What shocked him, was that the 5 soldiers who always followed the General were all 3rd rank high-grade soldiers. The force committed to this mission was just outrageous.The Spartan army released another four
Clark and Sonia both activated their camouflage devices, perfectly disguising themselves as regular citizens of the Mocan republic. They needed it, as being in the shadows was to their favor.Clark’s advice was that they should disguise themselves as siblings, but Sonia insisted on them disguising themselves as a pair of lovers. She reasoned that it would be more convincing for young youths like them.After much argument, he eventually relented before finally following her suggestion. He was no match for a woman like her, in terms of argument prowess.Looking at the decision from the bright side, it was not too bad. He consoled his ego with this, as they quickly located a boutique in the nearest town.He got dressed in a pair of ripped blue jean trousers and a red polo t-shirt. With his short trimmed dark hair and the young vibe that he was exuding, the dress code made him look like a youn
“Clark…, it’s ok, calm down, forget about the dream already”. Sonia comforted Clark in a soothing tone after he narrated the dream to her in the morning.“I’ll never put you in a situation that’ll endanger your life, I promise. Don’t worry, we’ll just have to be more careful and cautious”. She added in a softer tone to drive home her point.Clark finally calmed down a little after repeated calming words from her. He may have overreacted, but you’ll never understand his overreaction until a bullet is embedded in you.When you see yourself slowly dying and the tinder of life fading out of you, the trauma would speak for itself. Weaker-minded individuals can even develop psychological problems immediately.It felt shameful and embarrassing for a male soldier to be comforted by a girl because of a nightmare, but the feeling of him sl
After a lot of planning, preparation, and implementation of their well-laid-out plans, the Spartan soldiers were more ready as Christmas was now fast approaching.Surprisingly, to Clark’s shock and joy, Eminem invited him to his family’s Christmas party. This was just like manna falling from heaven to him, it was an unexpected boon to the mission.“Shit man, this is completely unexpected. With this alone, it is already enough to make me the greatest contributor of this mission”. He thought excitedly.That evening, on getting home he did not tarry, he immediately contacted his Captain.After he was informed, Captain Briggs was not shy with his praise nor did he mince words as he lavished praise on both Clark and Sonia while encouraging them to continue the good work.Some of Clark’s squadmates were already preparing to risk infiltrating the Governor&rsqu
Boom!! “Shit”. Captain Briggs suddenly cursed loudly and jumped behind a nearby metal platform, before backing out an order for his soldiers to take cover.The booming sound was a gunshot sound from an unknown hidden sniper. Another undiscovered variable that was uncounted for.A random sniper was nowhere close enough to earn a curse from Captain Briggs, but that one shot destroyed one of his soldier’s heads immediately. Blood blossomed before falling like rain, dying the finely tiled floor with a tint of red.All of the soldiers, including Clark, reacted extremely fast as they hid behind different structures in the mansion. After finding cover, they finally started searching in horror for the mysterious shooter.“He’s a 3rd rank high-grade soldier with impeccable sniping ability, equipped with a top-notch sniper rifle”. Captain Briggs quickly announced after getting temporary relief, displaying his experience and keen
Clark’s squadmates escaped in different directions, as Captain Briggs ordered them to scatter to different places to have a better chance of surviving the state-wide pursuit.Clark and Sonia still decided to stick together as they escaped. They intended to get as far away as possible from the State’s capital city before the reinforcement finally converged here.What made all the soldiers’ despair was that the main attack force of the operation, led by the General, have not escaped yet. So they had no specific direction to escape to.Their warship, G-14, would only come for them after retrieving the soldiers in the General’s squad. That was the most important task that was designated to it, so they had to fend for themselves for this period.This uncertainty on where to escape to hung above their heads like a summoned veil of death, bringing them more pressure than predicted.For the rest of the whole day, they were all on th
6 months ago, the sky turned red which according to world leaders signified the start of the war that would decide the fate of humanity.2 months prior, the news was finally publicized, spreading worldwide panic but with all the most powerful world leaders working together, the panic was easily curbed and order was restored.According to the government, humanity was not hopeless, they had heroes in the form of their soldiers and elite soldiers.Not only that, humanity had a superhero, the great Elite Commander Clark Pendragon. After the special training started, a fuse seemed to have been switched on as the Spartan soldier experienced a period of rapid growth.With veteran Elite Commanders around to guide him and with every resource he needed available, he encountered no bottlenecks, he improved at a superhuman speed never recorded since the human race was born.In just 4 months, he broke through 2 times, going all the way to the Elite-grade rank.
A month later, in the Gen. Clark Pendragon Mansion.At the big balcony attached to the mansion, Clark stood, looking out into the distance as a lot of things went through his mind. The past one month has been the best in his life, and he was grateful for it.Despite it being the best in his life, as a 4th rank high-grade soldier now, his intuition told him that something was happening.As a high-grade soldier and mercenary, things happened everyday around him but he knew that this was not the normal happenings, his intuition told him that this was far higher than anything that he has encountered before.And after making connections from the recent happenings, from his famous marriage ceremony, to the big 5 jointly broadcasting it, a lot of other things and now the Spartan President personally calling for him, he confirmed his guess.Something big was happening, it was just that no one deemed it right to inform him about it yet. As a man
Vatican City Central Church, General Clark Street. This was the church where the big things were happening for today. Not only people from all over the Spartan republic, even esteemed guests from foreign high-grade countries came to grace this occasion. Today was the day of Vatican City hero’s marriage ceremony. After 22 years as a single, General Clark Pendragon was finally ready to tie the nut with his fiancée. The name of the street where the ceremony was commencing was given and commissioned a few days after Clark became a General. Some of the most esteemed guests attending the marriage ceremony were the legendary President of the Spartan republic, Leonidas, and the armor tycoon, the billionaire Mr. Calibri of the Dakran republic. These 2 people were such powerful and well-known personalities in their own rights that their attendance alone shot the attention being given to the marriage ceremony to the highest point. Not only that,
“Leonidas, you wish to attend?”Hearing that, the Spartan President sighed, exasperated. “If you were not my mentor, I would have probably fired you already. Cough…, sorry for that but I’m really going, what’s the big deal?”“You’re really asking me that right now? Of course, there’s a big deal. Apart from military burials, do you know the last time you have for social gatherings?”“I dunno, probably a decade or 2”.“No…, 4 decades! 4 whole decades! You get that?” The old man emphasized by waving his hands vigorously, showing 4 fingers at the powerful soldier.“Suddenly going to a social event after such a long time staying at home, what do you think will be people’s reaction. They may feel that something is happening, they may even panic”.“And just because he’s a 4th rank high-grade soldier does not change anythin
A day after the reunion with her family, Sonia took permission with her parents before going on the first official date with her boyfriend. It was a date, but they just wanted to spend more time together and close to each other. The few years apart was torment to them, now that they had the opportunity, they wanted to make up for it by all means. At first, staying together left them feeling awkward but they soon got over it and started reliving the feelings of a few years ago. For the destination for their first date, none of them planned for it as they were both individuals who have never interacted with the opposite sex in such fashions before now. As the only daughter of a famous billionaire, other billionaire sons already tried courting her in the past but she simply didn’t find them appealing enough, so she always ignored and avoided them. After just a day of staying with Clark, her brother, and her parents in her childhood home, she now
Among the 3 Pirate Gods in the Sahara, though none of them never publicly claimed the spot as the strongest, the Black Pirate God was the one most recognized by pirates as the strongest. After him was the powerful Red Goddess Pirate, then the Lilac Pirate God. Compared to the first 2, the Lilac Pirate God was on the more glaringly weaker side but he still had the strength to back his title. At this moment, in the Black God Pirate City, a surprising piece of news was being circulated. Pirate Queen Anamel was dead, and Pirate Queen Cobra was secretly a student of the Red Goddess. Not only that, the most shocking piece of news that took the city by storm was that of Pirate Queen Cobra’s intention to leave the Sahara and settle in normal human settlements outside. … “Is this news verified?” A deep voice asked with suppressed anger in an underground room with far better living conditions than most of the others out there in the desert. “Yes
Though they both wanted to just remain in each other’s embrace forever, Clark and Sonia knew that they were still in a pirate city and what it meant. With reluctance, they quickly left the city with Arthur.Even if they tried to cover it up, it was impossible so they didn’t bother. In minutes, the news of Pirate Queen Anamel’s death spread through the pirate city and beyond.For long, Clark has always been worried about his reaction when he finally saw Sonia again but he was surprised when he did. It was like they never separated; it was like they’ve lived through all these years together.15 minutes later, they got sufficiently far away into the desert from the pirate city so they finally had the time to speak things out.Sonia brought out the stolen pistol first, which Clark handed over to Arthur. After this, she finally started detailing her encounters after Clark asked.According to her, after the fierce battle on her fa
While Arthur asked the pirate, Clark already went to work as he closed his eyes to focus. As experienced soldiers, they already put a lot of contingencies in place during their tour around the pirate city.Even if they wanted to catch some fun, it was too unrealistic for them to just keep touring without setting anything in place.With his implant, Clark immediately accessed the hidden cameras that they placed around the city, most especially this bar. It didn’t take him long; he saw a hooded female going out through the bar’s back door.“Found our target”.While muttering to Arthur, Clark already turned to storm out of the bar. Arthur simply knocked the 2 pirates out before storming out also.In seconds, they were out of the bar’s main structure.…A few meters away from the bar, a hooded lady walked through the streets at a leisure pace as she kept a close but alert eye on her surroundings.<
The next day, Clark and Arthur woke up with the intention to remain patient while waiting for their informant to contact them. They didn’t even go into the pirate city, it was too disgusting for them to stay in it. The more Clark felt this way, the more he feared what his girlfriend may have become now. If just a day staying in it could make him this irritated, he just couldn’t imagine what staying here for 4 years could have done. Thinking of this, he felt guilty again. “Why didn’t I come earlier?” Souring his mood with such thoughts, the day moved extremely slowly to him. Perhaps, having noticed his current mood, Arthur didn’t disturb him and opted to go out hunting alone. When he came back, he had a desert antelope with him. Seeing the catch, Clark was left speechless. “Can we finish that?” Arthur wasn’t fazed by his question. “If we can’t finish it today, we’ll just finish it tomorrow or the next. Don’t worry, I have preservation gadgets with me, and besides, your girlfriend
