Chapter 51
Ever since he has been adopted by Carlo, Alexander Samarita has been trained to be the perfect soldier for battle . He had trained for three years and now his adoptive father Carlo thinks he’s ready for a mission . Alexander had recently registered as a rcenary but because of his relation to Carlo’s squad, he had shot up two ranks and directly beca a rank C rcenary .
The ranks given by rcenary’s isn’t given by allies there were given by the enemies . The Ranks are given to see the threat value of an enemy . The reason Alex was given a higher rank than most newb’s is because he was part of a squad who the weakest rcenary is Rank A .
So now that he has gained his official status as a rcenary, his dad decided to give him his first mission to test him . The mission was suppose to be a simple reconnaissance mission . Find the enemy’s position, check the surrounding area for traps, then return to report . That was all he needed to do, but what had happened was unexpected, he had set off an alarm, and now he was being chased by a famous Rank A rcenary in a godforsaken forest .
The Rank A rcenary had an eyepatch in his left eye, and his build and looks indicated that he was around thirty sothing years old . Based on how efficiently he was finding Alex, while he runs and hides made him look like a rcenary that is good at tracking . Alex while running tried to rember the files his dad had given him about the enemy force .
There was only one Rank A rcenary on the other side and that was Mark Stone, a tracking specialist whose combat style revolves around knives . While Alex was thinking of counterasures he noticed that the person following wasn’t there anymore . Alex didn’t let his guard down, it was impossible that a first rate tracker such as Mark, could lose track of him . He must be nearby, when Alex thought of that soone spoke from behind him .
"What’s this? It’s just a brat?!" Mark looked at the tiny ten year old Alex and looked a bit angry . "Is Carlo looking down on us so much, that he actually sent a f*cking ten year old for recon?!" Alex who was looking at Mark had felt the sa feeling he had three years back, this was the feeling of death .
"Well whatever . . . Sorry kid, it’s your fault for stepping on the battlefield . " Mark was trying to grab Alex, and quickly end him . Alex seeing the approaching hand, got his M1911 handgun and shot at Mark, who had quickly evaded . "So you plan to resist?" Mark took out his two Ka-Bar USMC Fighting Knives, and dashed towards Alex .
Alex was shocked at his speed but not too much, since he had seen people who where faster . Alex calmly started shooting at Mark, while increasing their distance from each other . Mark on the other hand used the trees as cover, and charged at Alex without slowing down .
Alex in his very first mission, was facing a rc who was better than him in every way . Still even in this dire situation Alex showed his abnormality, instead if running in fear Alex was trying to rember the layout of the area, while shooting the enemy in a systematic order .
Alex had long ago buried his fears and insecurities . To be human was to be weak, he needed to be strong, so he needed to more than human .
Mark had finally closed in on Alex, and was able to cut a bit of Alex’s right forearm . Due to the shock, even though Alex’s face wasn’t showing it, he was actually very hurt . The pain made him loosen the grip on his gun and let go . Mark seeing Alex let go of his gun pressed on the attack, and slashed at Alex with no rcy . Alex having a very small body fra used it to his advantage . Mark couldn’t get a clear hit, since it was difficult even for him to hit an enemy who was at least three ti smaller than him .
Alex was trying to understand the opponents rhythm like he was taught . He was trying to see what quirks and combinations Mark like to use when fighting .
"Kid in battle don’t be distracted!" Mark almost sliced Alex’s head off . Alex took his own military grade knife and held it in his left hand .
"So you’re going to fight back? Whatever kid, no matter what you do the outco is still the sa, you dying by my hands!" Mark with renewed vigor attacked Alex . This ti the attack was not just simple slashes he started to throw the knives as well . There was a thin wire, attached to the knives, so every ti he throws it, the knives would simply co back . Alex had already figured out that Mark could do this, based on the way he stabbed and sliced, as if he was trying to do sothing else . Yet even though he knew it was coming he couldn’t react in ti, so Alex still got nicked a bit .
Alex finally figured out the rhythm of Mark’s attacks, and was now barely able to evade . Alex waited and waited for the right ti to attack . Mark finally showed an opening, Alex attacked the opening, but it turned out to be a trap . Mark purposely showed that opening, to lure Alex in and attack .
Mark had countered Alex’s attack with a kick to his gut . Alex was now in the ground trying to control his breathing . Mark slowly approached him, and sighed . "You really are too green kid . You couldn’t even tell it was trap . You should’ve stayed back ho kid, now your going to die . "
BANG!
"huh?" Mark fell to the ground dead . It turned out Alex was the one who lured Mark into thinking he had fallen into a trap, but instead he forced Mark to kick him to the area where his gun was at . "You talk too much . " Alex said as he looked at Mark’s dead body . This was the first ti he had ever killed another human being, Alex felt like he wanted to puke, yet he held it in . Alex kept on repeating to himself, I need to be strong, I need to be more than human . He kept on repeating these words until he felt nothing from killing Mark .
This was the beginning of Alex’s perfect mission record .
