“What? You had no…” The MBO officer with blueish hides was about to speak again when he was interrupted by Gradier Xanatus who was standing by the side.
“He did… Officer Colt,” Gradier Xanatus confirmed.
“I thought that was intelligence from your surbodinates?” Officer Colt had a look of embarrassment as he questioned Gradier Xanatus.
“He is my subordinate,” Gradier Xanatus replied.
Officer Colt; “…”
The other officers in the room felt second hand embarrassment for him as he stood there for a bit stupefied.
imagine bragging to someone about accomplishments you owe to them. Not all the accomplishments were coined from Gustav’s information and intelligence.
In fact, there were many of them which which had nothing to do with him but Officer Coly happened to mention a few of the recent ones which Gustav was responsible for, hence his embarrassment.
“…Still, this team was assembled by the higher ups to specifically take care of the Genxodus. He is not a member,” After a while Officer Colt regained his composure.
“I have to admit, Sir Colt is right with that. The Genxodus eradication team has been specially drilled for this and he is not a part of us. The upcoming mission is a very important one where errors cannot be risked,” A slim female officer with ponytail and black glasses voiced out.
“I will reveal an information that was kept under the wraps to you lots,” Gradier Xanatus said with a solemn tone.
“Officer Crimson was attacked over four months ago by the Genxodus in his household… they were looking to abduct him…”
Everyone eyes widened slightly at this point as the revelation resonated within them.
‘They wanted to abduct Officer Crimson? Why?’ Most of them had similar thoughts in mind.
“Do you know what that means?” Grader Xanatus voiced once more.
“He is or was a target to them,” Officer Colt responded with a low tone.
“Precisely… which also means they had a plan that somehow needed Officer Crimson’s involvement. This also prompted most of the information you lots received. He had also hunted them on his own in the past before which led him to gather some of those intelligence,” Gradier Xanatus explained.
“We have to figure out what plan they had for him and knowing he is a target… if we play our cards right, we could use this to our advantage,” The other female officer with glasses and a ponytail stated.
“Officer Shuri… if you’re suggesting I use myself as a beacon to attract them, it won’t work because all they want now is my death,” Gustav chipped in.
“Oh?” Officer Shuri exclaimed in surprise.
“They have been sending assassins after him for the past couple of months,” Gradier Xanatus clarified.
“Hmm even with that, we could use the assassins to get information… did you capture them alive?” Officer Colt questioned.
“They never sent Genxodus members to assassinate him…” Gradier Xanatus voiced out once more.
“They have been using Mixedblood assassins who know nothing of the organisation,” Gustav added.
“These Mixedblood assassins have no idea who hired them… they just put a hit list out on Gustav’s head in the underground hit list with a price tag and these heartless assassins would go after him for the money,” Gradier Xanatus explained.
“Such shamelessness… they call themselves a Slarkov equality organisation who wants to erase mixedbloods yet they employed the use mixedbloods for such a deed,” Officer Shuri displayed an expression of irritation as she voiced out.

“Anyways… I will be participating in the upcoming operation. I have decided to wipe them out,” Gustav stated.
“Officer Crimson, you will only be allowed to join us in the upcoming operation if you agree to be put in a squad and listen to commands,” Officer Colt proposed.
“No. I already have a squad and they will be joining us,” Gustav declined instantly.
“That is the only way you will be allowed. I will not be changing my mind,” Officer Colt voiced out.
“Then I guess I won’t be revealing the information I discovered recently as well,” Gustav stated before shrugging his shoulders and turning around to leave.
“Information? Halt officer Crimson!” Officer Colt quickly yelled out.
“Hmm?” Gustav turned his head to the side.
“What information?” Officer Colt inquired.
“Oh? But you just asked me to leave. I don’t feel like sharing anymore,” Gustav responded with a smile before waving and resuming his walk.
“Officer Crimson!” Officer Colt yelled out again, causing Gustav to pause.
“Do you know its a crime to withhold information about enemy forces because it automatically means you’re aiding them in their plans?” Officer Colt questioned.
“What enemy forces? When did I say I had information about enemy forces hehehe?” Gustav chuckled while responding.
Officer Colt gritted his teeth as he heard this, unable to give a reply. Truly Gustav hadn’t outrightly confirmed it was information about the enemy forces so no one could hold it against him.
“Okay fine, you win,” Officer Colt finally gave in.
Gustav paused his steps before reaching the door after hearing this.
“Now we can have a proper discussion,” A smirk appeared on Gustav’s face as he turned around.

Hours later Gustav and Gradier Xanatus sat in a luxurious office sipping tea as they exchanged dialogue.
“It’s three weeks away… are you sure your team will be ready?” Gradier Xanatus questioned.
“I’m sure they will. With the training, they must be way stronger by now,” Gustav stated with a tone of certainty.
“The IYSOP training Huh,” Gradier Xanatus stroked his chin area as he muttered.
“This will even be a great way to prepare them… I’m hoping to get rid of the Genxodus before I finally leave for IYSOP.” Gustav revealed.
“It’s less than two months away… I’m not sure that’s possible,” Gradier Xanatus voiced out his thought.
“All we need to do is destroy their higher ups and cut their support… even if we don’t manage to get rid or apprehend every single one of them, that will be more than enough to end their operations,” Gustav pointed out.
“And how do we do that? Till date not a single higher up has been captured and we still have no idea who any of them are,” Gradier Xanatus inquired.
“Leave that to me,” Gustav responded with an assuring tone.
He obviously had a plan but he wasn’t looking to reveal it at the moment. From the looks of things it might even be involved with some of his capabilities he was still hiding so he chose not to reveal.
“By the way, did you breakthrough?” Gradier Xanatus questioned.
“Yeah… you can sense it?” Gustav questioned.
“I can barely sense you here despite your physical presence so I figured you are concealing energy even more than normal because you don’t want to fully unleash your energy… which could only mean you’re still learning to get used to the current strength you just achieved,” Gradier Xanatus voiced lengthily.
“Yeah… haha,” Gustav chuckled lightly as he realised Gradier Xanatus saw through his recent breakthrough.
“You’re now more powerful than I am for sure,” Gradier Xanatus couldn’t help but be awed at the speed of Gustav’s improvement.
“Maybe…” Gustav refrained from confirming Gradier Xanatus’s suspicion.
It was less than a year since he finished from MBO Camp yet he had already gotten to this level of strength.
“Another meeting will be held a couple of days before the time for the operation. This time every single squad along with the members of the Genxodus eradication team will be there,” Gradier Xanatus revealed.
“Your team needs to be ready in the next two weeks,” He added.
“No issues with that… I’ll go to them before that time,” Gustav nodded.
“In the meantime I need to train… I need a powerful sparring partner,” Gustav stated.
“You need a haircut,” Gradier Xanatus shook his head with an appalled look as he stared at Gustav’s long caveman like hair.
“Oh yeah, that too,” Gustav placed his hand on his head while responding.
Gustav hadn’t cut his hair in the last four months and it grew to a crazy length due to his excessive training. Growing in strength also led to cells altering and so many different inexplicable body changes.
Some Mixedbloods would experience intense horniness in some situations and end up going at it with the opposite sex for days. A normal human wouldn’t be able to handle such.
Other mixedbloods would experience body changes like becoming extremely cold for a period of time or changing color. This only happened to Mixedbloods who were on the verge of breaking through to the Kilo rank.
In Gustav’s case, his hair grew very long within a short period, reaching the back of the soles of his feet. This wasn’t the only thing, his body temperature would have turned a human within close proximity to ashes which was why he flew upwards.
