Chapter 42 Chapter: 020 Rescue Part 2 (1/2)
Hidden behind a tree near the military camp, Elijah and Chloe were discussing the plan.
”The Briles Kingdom is know for their large army, so i guess that there is a entire company of hundred inside there and you can see that guy over there? It seems he is the commander of a battalion so he is our first target, but they have large amounts of patrols surrounding the hills and the paths. If we want to get inside,I think the best way is if we make a distraction and attack while they do not know we're here. We just need to wait when they change shifts, we should be able to conceal ourselves and sneak through like this.”
”Look! The patrol are preparing to change shifts in half an hour.” Chloe said.
Then Elijah suddenly halted, pulling Chloe down in a crouch. ”Wait, there is someone coming closer. Find a better place to look around while i will look where they were holding the prisoners.” Saying this, he imediataly get up and apeared inside the camp using [Void Steps]. Searching the camp, he saw a locked door and with the help of [Detect Life Spell] it was easy to discorver who was inside it. Elijah's eyes filled with emotion as he saw his parents.
Elijah's eyes filled with emotion as he saw his parents. He wanted to break the door open so he could save them as fast as possible, but Elijah knew what he needed to do before rescuing them.
While Elijah was circling around the camp. At the same time, Chloe hid and silently approached the camp slowly, passing through the bushes quietly and taking down the soldiers hidden in the woods. After climbing one of the trees, she finally got a good lead to watch the soldiers eating while the camp commander was talking with the general.
In order to make any noise, Chloe slowly raised the knife with her right hand, taking aim at the middle of the General's head. Readying herself, she waited for Elijah's signal before she did something.
Right at that moment, she suddenly saw a figure moving like a shadow. The figure looked at her while he aimed with his hand at the entrance of a room where they held explosives and shooted a spark of lightning.
'Boom!'
A enormous explosion had taken place in the middle of the camp, pieces of bodies flyed to the sky as several soldiers were engulified by fire.
In that very instance, Chloe felt this was Elijah's signal to attack. At that moment, she threw her knife. 'Swoosh!'
As everyone was distracted by the explosion, nobody saw a knife hitting the middle of the General's forehead while his body fall to the ground.
Wounded soldiers run from side to side without knowing what to do. Elijah took a picture of the soldier as a trophy of his victory and while Chloe was taking care of the leftovers he burst into where the prisoners were.
Henry was sitting in the corner of the room, his body was much slimmer than before, with a pale face. His wife, Catherine was talking with the other prisoners as the door burst open and the figure of a brown-haired teenager appeared before their eyes.
Henry and Catherine's eyes redden as they saw the familiar figure before them, but the boy said. ”We don't have much time, eveyone follow me. i have a friend taking care of the soldiers as i help you escape. So calm down and follow me!”
Elijah led them to the woods outside the camp and a girl with a long green hair had get down from the tree. ”Ell, enemy reinforcements are coming. We better go quickly.” Then she looked at Elijah parents and says. ”Hello, i'm Aryanna Kohar, your son's friend.” Henry and Catherine's eyes brighten seeing the young girl Elijah had bring with him.
