Chapter 247: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 50
Because everyone still hasn't taken their breakfast yet, Alonzo quickly gathered the rest of the kitchen staff to start preparing a meal.
The kitchen staff prepared a simple meal for everyone since there was no proper kitchen, just enough to fill their stomach.
After breakfast, everyone started conversing with their respective groups.
Close to an hour later, some soldiers started feeling tired so they went ahead to look for a spot in the warehouse to set up their bed and take a nap.
Everyone is clearly exhausted from not sleeping for a single day. So, they took this chance where they have nothing to do to go and take some rest. In addition to that, they would actually continue with their journey to the Daze Village after lunch, so recuperating energy is a must.
This includes Alonzo and the rest of the kitchen staff.
Although there were some that didn't fall asleep, the majority being the elite members. They are called elites for a reason, right?
Kayn and Gilbert also don't want to go to sleep as there are a lot of things they want to do while they remain in the Hush Village.
"Would it be okay if we leave and explore the Hush Village?" Kayn asked one of the elite members for permission. He doesn't want to go out without informing anyone as that might affect Alonzo's opinion of him and Gilbert negatively.
"You can, but I suggest you don't leave the area around the barracks," The man kindly reminded.
"Would something bad happen to us if we leave the perimeter?"
"As you aren't officially one of us yet, you might not be able to get back inside the barracks once you leave the area,"
"Oh, we understand,"
Kayn and Gilbert understood.
"We'll make sure to take note of that," Gilbert nodded his head.
With that, Kayn and Gilbert left the warehouse.
Although they are exploring the vicinity of the barracks, they could actually see the scene outside the walls because it was simply made with barbed wires. Albeit there are guards stationed every five meters to prevent outsiders from getting inside the barracks.
"Barracks can normally be accessed by everyone who intents on looking for a mission," Gilbert can't help letting out a sigh. "But these people are using it as a military base,"
"It always depends on the management," Kayn didn't find it strange. Once they get inside the 'Tower', they'll be able to find missions being posted from all sorts of places. Unlike in 'The Bridge' where it is always posted in the barracks.
Contrary to Gilbert, Kayn was busy looking for the kitchen.
"There should be a kitchen just somewhere close to where the soldiers train," Kayn focus his attention on the wide open space surrounded by dozens of buildings.
"What are you looking for?"
"Their kitchen,"
"Are you planning on charming every soldier of the Assembly of Freedom in the Hush Village?"
"Since we can't charm the masses, we'll have to settle on what we can,"
Getting outside the vicinity of the barracks is going to be impossible as that might cause them to get left behind by Seven's company.
"It shouldn't take long for Seven to return, so we'll have to secretly add these Undead Apples to their ingredients," It is also impossible for them to personally cook for this camp since they aren't part of their kitchen staff. With the existence of Wesley in their ranks, the Assembly of Freedom is very cautious when it comes to who cooks their food.
As they look for the kitchen, someone suddenly pokes Kayn's back, which quickly made him and Gilbert turn around.
"A kid?" Gilbert felt confused as he looked down at the little girl. He looks at Kany and asked. "Is she perhaps lost?"
Unlike Gilbert, Kayn immediately became nervous as he saw the little girl "It's impossible for a kid to get lost in this kind of place…"
"You're correct," The little girl muttered. "I am not lost,"
"See," Kayn looks at Gilbert. "And she's obviously not a little kid,"
"Correct, once again,"
Kayn knew the girl from the future, that's why he can recognize her.
The little girl's name is Maria. She is an infamous Villain in the future who is known as Human Hunter Maria. Just like what her title suggests, she hunts humans like a bounty hunter. But unlike the latter, she does it for the fun of it. Her target is usually those Heroes that are stronger than her, in that way the hunt becomes challenging.
Contrary to his comrades who fought alongside him, Human Hunter Maria is the very literal definition of a Villain. In the future, she became an official member of Circus and started helping the organization increase its influence throughout the 'Tower' and on Earth.
"So, she started from the Assembly of Freedom. It seems like some of their members were able to escape from 'The Bridge' alive," Kayn thought to himself.
"I am sorry…" Gilbert apologizes.
"It's alright," The little kid accepted the apology. "I am Maria, a member of the Assembly Knight,"
"Assembly Knight…"
Kayn and Gilbert realized.
The Assembly Knight is the version of Green Horn Knights for the Assembly of Freedom. Unlike the latter though, there are only six members of the Assembly Knights, including Wesley himself. But, one shouldn't underestimate any of them because the six of them can easily take down the third squad and fourth squads of Green Horn Knights as they are all level fifty. Only Friedrich's and Chastine's squad could hope to contend against them.
In an instant, Kayn and Gilbert stood straight to express their respect and awe at Maria. Of course, they were not just pretending to do it, as this is a serious matter. If the latter is displeased by them, then it is game over.
"What are you two doing here? And how did you get inside when you are not soldiers?" Maria asked.
