p AndD nOve1.cO,m Agent Uri’s two new missions were as follows,
First, infiltrate the Southern region’s Sky Blossom city under the guise of helping Agent Lois in her investigation into the southern royal family under the authority of the Secret Police.
Second, locate Dr. Luna Lorn and Dalton Wyatt. Then Kidnap Dr. Luna Lorn, Assassinate Dalton Wyatt, and rendezvous at the mentioned classified hideout.
At first glance, these two missions look like a simple mission of infiltration, kidnapping, and assassination but once the identity of the targets was considered, this mission risk level would turn into the highest possible level. Uri who had read the files on the new missions shared with his grimoire by his handler wasn’t concerned at first and felt a little offended because frankly, he thought that these missions were unnecessarily being turned complicated and a bit beneath his level. Until the name Field Marshal Heatsend was brought up. If he had to face her, a part of him wanted to take his chances trying to run away from his organization, because facing Field Marshal Heatsend meant instant death even for someone of his capabilities.
Therefore, when Uri heard that the organization’s solution for this problem was revealing Agent Lois to the southern royal family and the fucking bullshit cover of general Baylor adopting the assassination target, he started to worry for his life and even thought that the organization was trying to get rid of him without getting their hands dirty and asked, “How the heck does Agent Lois tagging along with me help my mission? With Field Marshal’s capabilities, I will be dead even before I get close to her granddaughter, forget kidnapping her.”
As an elite handler, Uri’s handler immediately saw through his thoughts and calmly consoled Uri saying, “Relax, you know better than me that the organization will not try to get rid of you, though they don’t care for you as an individual, you know how much they value your abilities. Frankly, I am surprised you would think that despite your history with the organization.”
“That doesn’t answer how Agent Lois is going to help with my mission, Sir,” Uri did not bother with what his handler said because his handler was one of the nepo-babies, this alone made the handler very loyal to the organization, and right for the handler job, not to mention he did not have to worry about being ditched by the organization at its convenience. Someone like him would never understand what he was going through.
“I am getting to that,” the handler fixed his posture and then continued saying, “The reason why Agent Lois’s presence will help you in your mission is that one of the additional effects of Agent Lois’s physique is a bane of Field Marshal Heatsend’s specialty that allows Field Marshal Heatsend to counter your origin card.
Agent Lois’s godly physique has many miraculous functions and one of them is to mask her past, present, and future at her will. Not just her alone but also her surroundings too. During the mission as long as one of you sticks close to Agent Lois, you can mask your presence along with your past, present, and future under the influence of her physique while the remaining of you can perform your mission without worrying about Field Marshal Heatsend, as she will not be able to learn what you are really up to.”
“You and I, both know that Field Marshal Heatsend’s specialty is not what she is known for or what makes her deadly. Agent Lois’s presence will only delay the inevitable, once Field Marshal Heatsend catches on to my mission, it will be too late for me to cry,” Though Uri did not have the pleasure of facing Field Marshal Heatsend but he has heard about her abilities, heck every operative in the organization was warned to avoid Field Marshal Heatsend as much as possible. Falling on her radar as an enemy was equal to game-over. She was just leagues above their level.
“Yes, even with Agent Lois’s physique covering your tracks it will be hard but you will have to be smart about this and complete your mission as fast as possible. In case your cover is blown, 15 mins, is how long Henrick has promised to keep Field Marshal Heatsend busy. Within that 15 minutes, you will have to complete your mission and escape. As for General Baylor and Agent Lois, they can take care of themselves,” the Handler revealed the contingency the organization had prepared for the smooth completion of the mission even if it were to meet hiccups midway.
“15 minutes, huh,” Uri hesitated and did not give his handler an answer, not because he felt the time was short but because he wondered whether Henricks was strong enough to hold off Field Marshal Heatsend for 15 minutes. Not that Uri underestimated Field Marshal Henricks but considering his opponent was Field Marshal Heatsend he couldn’t help but do so. After all, his life was on the line and the bloody history of the Unparalleled bloodline was not something to gloss over.
Hesitation on Uri’s face was obvious, it was impossible for his handler to miss it but he did not blame Uri for being reluctant to take on the mission, not that it was a choice but he understood where Uri was coming from, those with Unparalleled bloodline were just monsters, their strength was on another level. But unlike Uri, his handler knew Henricks, this field marshal was as cunning as he was strong if he said he can hold off field marshal Heatsend for fifteen minutes then he would otherwise he would not have said so.
“Sir, you know what, now that I think about it, I feel that the government stands to gain more if they let demigod Baylor adopt that kid,” Uri knew he cannot reject the missions even if they were suicide missions but there was still time for the missions to start if he was wise about this he can change his master’s mind about the objective of the mission.
“Shut up, Uri. The government stands to gain more with the boy’s death. With him out of the picture, we can regulate the item ‘silver milk powder’ at our convenience and price, i.e if it exists. If it really does exist then it could be the arrow that our query is missing to get rid of the four royal families and the empire for good. Before you spout some other bullshit, Just take a look inside this storage card,” Saying that Uri’s handler handed him an SSS-rank Storage card.
“Fuck,” Uri cussed looking into the storage card wondering, ‘How many semi-demigods and demigods do I have to kill to gather this much divinity?’
“That is your pay for the two missions in advance. So, now, do you still have any problem with the two missions assigned to you?” The storage card contained the largest amount of refined divinity both Uri and his handler had seen in one place.
“Sir, no, sir!” Uri knew that the reason the organization gave him this much divinity as advance payment was that they wanted to help him use his origin card to the full of its potential and not be limited by lack of divinity during the mission. Considering the threat level of the mission, by the end of the mission, Uri would be lucky to have even a tenth of the refined divinity in the storage card remaining. Yet, Uri accepted his mission because he did not have a choice even if his handler made it sound like he had one. And with this amount of divinity, even if things grow out of control he can guarantee his life. As for the rest, as long as he was alive he can always think of something.
