Chapter 20 - CLOSE CALL

The lance corporal told me to pack the weapons early.

Oh, the boss told you that...? I guess he changed his mind. Continue, I'll get the other recruit.

Let's go!

(Both of them quickly left the factory and went to the base to report their mission's success.)

Primo! The mission was a success, and we also got an essence weapon!

Primo... Wait! The Primo!? The vanguard of Aeind and the first fang of the beast! 

It looks like one of Jed's best friends recognizes me now. Kent, the marksman of destruction, thanks for being with this rookie on this mission.

(He felt quite honored to have known him, and asked who the Psionic are and questioned the Primo about their next task.)

The Psionic is the rival gang of the Armas, as you guys pretty much know, but what makes them tricky is that they can use psychic abilities.

Their psyches' powers are weak! For example, they can read minds and change a person's perception if the person is mentally weak. It's a good thing you guys took one of the Armas weapons, now they will blame the psionic.

Makes it easier to rid of Psionic for good.

(The secretary of Lance Corporal. Draven deceived reported back to him about the progress of the weapon shipment.)

The shipment is going well, but did you tell others to pack early?

When did I ever order that command? Where did you hear that instruction?

But, Zack and Jack, those impostors tricked me!

(The lance corporal was furious about this and started contacting Seugo about this incident.)

Those money-hungry pigs will pay for this, alright. If they want a war, they will get it!

Get ready! people tomorrow at noon. The Psionics pigs will be no more.

(The spies of the Black Hounds heard this declaration of war and reported this to the base.)

Ha... ha! Alright! It's time to prepare, and let's not disappoint the Emperor!

 YES SIR!!

(Everyone began their preparations. Kent began making frost bullets from forsterite basalt by assimilating them with his navy gel arm. When noon came, the hounds hid in bushes far from the battlefield.)

Commander! They're already on the Lam-Ang field.

Good, let's observe them and wait for the right moment to strike.

You bastards have gotten on my nerves for the last time, but it ends today!

I concur with you, Brutes. Let's end our rivalry.

(Seugo placed his arm on the ground as the battle began, and a small eruption occurred on the enemy side; some psionics burned.)

Now Fire!

[Whack-whack]

"It looks like they're wearing Ardemian cloaks. It looks like they came in prepared." 

(He ordered his assault team to attack, and it was far more effective than the armament. One lieutenant expands their sword and strikes it down, killing multiple opponents.)

[Crunch]

Aaaaah!

"Ugh! SONIC WAVES, whoever hears my voice, I order you to attack your allies."

(Some of the Armas began to attack their comrades. Seugo noticed this and started to look for the casters and look at the very back of their army.)

Ah! those guys with purple coats with bubble patterns.

[kshhh-boom]

So... you're the guys.

BURN TO ASHES!, ESTALLIDO NOVA!

(A sudden, explosive energy came out of him, burning all the caster and a large amount of the nearby psionics.)

I got them out of the way, my soldier! Get rid of the remaining ones!

(The Armas began killing them all; their numbers slowly dwindling until there were none spared.)

Alright, guys, let's go home.

General... who are those people wearing black?

Who are you talking about...? Urgh, them! The black hounds. Men! Get ready for a tough battle ahead of us.
