Adopted Soldier

Chapter 303

After the meeting they had, each member of the Mercenary club was given a mission . So in accordance to that mission Emily was now following Kei while clinging to his arm smiling gleefully . Ever since the time Kei agreed to be her boyfriend Emily was in a very joyous mood . She wanted to quickly do some cosplaying as a couple . Seeing as there were tons of costumes that Emily wanted to try that she wasn’t able to since she didn’t have a partner . She happily tried to ask Kei but he denied the idea since there was more work to do now . Emily wasn’t affected by the denial and instead said the line, next time then .

This was so different from the normal Emily that it stunned Kei for a few seconds . He wasn’t expecting this at all . The Emily right now was too happy that she wasn’t really bothered by such things . As long as they were together they could cosplay any time they wanted to .

Kei who was stunned for a moment smiled, as he finally figured out what was going on inside the head of his so called adorable girlfriend .

. . .

Right now the two of them were heading to one of Kei’s informants . The final goal of the members of the Mercenary club was to find Alex’s whereabouts and rescue him . Now that Kei has Emily by his side, with her hacking expertise they might be able to find some traces Alex this time . So for now the two of them decided to gather more information from other people .

The informant was currently hiding in one of the abandoned cities near the former border of Berdonia . Once the Granado Empire conquered the place, they only left a few soldiers to monitor the situation, as they continued to push inward towards Berdonia’s capital . These soldiers don’t do their jobs properly, as they sometimes leave their post to do something else and only come back once a week to check on the situation .

The informant stayed here to hide, seeing as it was the least likely place he would get caught . That wasn’t the only reason he stayed here, the other reason was so that he could gather information from the lower ranked soldiers, which was easy since some of them weren’t as patriotic as the others .

. . .

Kei and Emily were stealthily passing through the city . They don’t really need to do this, since the next time a Granado Empire soldier would come to inspect the city, would be two days from now . Still Kei thought that it was better safe than sorry .

. . .

While Kei and Emily were sneaking around, two individuals were looking at them from a distance . One of them was a very alluring woman wearing the Shadow Mercenaries uniform . She had no visible weapon present and the only thing noteworthy aside from her sexy look was her excessively long finger nails . The one with her was a man that looked to be around forty years old . At first glance you would think he had no weapon as well, but the truth was he had numerous knives hidden in his body .

"So those are the targets, Emily Hunt and Kei Kaido . " The man spoke as he was looking through his binoculars .

"Based on the reports I’ve seen of these two, I can tell that they aren’t really that good in battle . They’re the type that are good in gaining information . So let’s just go and get them, I’m sure this would be easy . Don’t you think so, Daryl?"

"Hmmm . . . Yeah, among the six of them these two are supposedly the weakest in combat . Okay then, let’s do this Amica . "

The two members of the Shadow Mercenaries started to move .

. . .

Emily who was clinging closely to kei felt something was wrong and pulled Kei to the side . Moments later a woman appeared in the spot they were standing on . The woman looked at the two a bit surprised .

"Oh, you’re able to dodge that? I was planning to get you in one strike . Impressive . "

"I see, so even though she’s a hacker and a scout type merc, she’s still A rank . " Another one appeared before them and this time it was a man . When Emily saw Amica and Daryl, a lot of warning bells started ringing in her head .

The two people wearing something that looked like a uniform were dangerous . Kei who saw the uniform worn by the two was shocked as he spoke .

"Shadow Mercenaries . " When Emily heard what Kei said made her even more worried . The people in front of them were actual members of the mythical Shadow Mercenaries .

"Heh, so you know about us . That makes it simple then . We’re here to pick you up, and bring you back to base . Your friend Alex is waiting for you there . "

When Kei and Emily heard Alex’s name, they both were surprised . They were able to get a new lead by chance . This might also be a chance to meet Alex . Still the two of them were reluctant to follow these two people of the Shadow Mercenaries .

Firstly they don’t know if these people from the Shadow Mercenaries were telling the truth . Secondly it was entirely possible that they would be used to force Alex in doing something . Third if they really meant no harm, and just wanted to pick them up, then why did they initiate a surprise attack . Aside from those three there were numerous other reasons not to follow them . The only good reason to follow them, was that they might be able to see Alex .

Seeing that there were more cons than pros, Kei and Emily looked at each other, and as if they could telepathically talk the two knew what the other was thinking . Kei then started looking for an escape route, while Emily was prepared to stall the enemies .

"It doesn’t seem like they would come willingly . Let’s just use force and get this over with . " Daryl spoke with a bit of irritation in his tone . Amica hearing Daryl’s suggestion nodded her head and was about to approach the two, but then she suddenly dodged . A bullet flew by, using this opening both Kei and Emily started running .

"A sniper! Daryl you catch those kids . I’ll deal with the sniper . "

. . .

In a distant building Kyle was on the roof giving Kei and Emily cover fire . Since the beginning he was protecting his little sister, but didn’t attack since it felt like the enemies would continue talking giving more information . So once he saw that the situation was going badly he started shooting . After the initial shot, Kyle could no longer see the woman called Amica . He didn’t have time to try and find her, so he continued to shoot at the enemy chasing Kei and Emily .

The man called Daryl was really good in predicting were his shots would head towards, and with that he was able to evade the bullets with ease . Seeing that Kyle was about to chance tactics and equipment, when he suddenly felt someone was behind him . Without even looking he took out his pistol and started shooting behind him and then ran leaving his sniper rifle behind .

As Kyle was running towards the room where his other equipment were located, he heard the voice of a woman behind him .

"Hey Mr . Sniper can you please give me your eyes . I want to add them in my collection of snipers eyes . " .
