Chapter 513: Mission (1/2)

Sam didn't want to bother with him and didn't want to prolong the conflict, but if he didn't make a statement, everyone else would think that he is soft permission just like this scion. That would be even more troublesome.

Anyway, the war would start anytime soon, there is no need for him to worry about the ruckus caused by this incident.

He would also like to see if the regiment commander himself would stop thinking about the war and fight it out with Sam.

But nothing of sorts happened, instead, he got a call from Yodha to meet him in his office.

Sam walked over casually without a trace of anxiety.

”What happened?” Yodha asked calmly, he didn't point fingers at Sam nor did he warn him about the incident.

”Just a self-important guy acting up. You don't want me to take that lying down, do you?”

”You could have resolved it another way, the war is around the corner, his father is not the regiment commander just for the show, what if he uses the authority and rules to deal with you?”

”Just let him do that, I want to see if the humans are the only beings that put their own agendas ahead of their communities, particularly one who has the responsibility to do something with authority.”

Yodha didn't reply, he is thinking about Sam's words.

”Why go this far? You could have just avoided all of this.”

”I tried. What? Do you want me to take a beating or something? I am not a human of this place and I agree that I don't know the rules, but that doesn't mean I have to take the shit thrown at me lying down. If those guys really don't want a problem, they would be the first to avoid me.

Trust me, they wouldn't want me as an enemy. You only saw part of my combat prowess when I am fighting directly. There is a lot more to me than that meets the eye.

Any way just leaves it aside, even if they want to kill me, it would depend on whether they have the capability or not. I assure you that it wouldn't be that easy.

I want to know about the war situation. When would it start and are invading or defending?”

Yodha shook his head at Sam's confidence, he is feeling that Sam is a bit arrogant to disregard the regiment commander completely. But he chose not to bother about this, he would cross the bridge when the time comes.

”This time, we are thinking about the invasion. The border between both nations is a place full of grasslands, ravines, and creeks. So, most of them would be direct confrontations and very few ambushes and temporary outposts. This time, we missed some places that we could have made the ambush points, so it is better to invade them.

And this time we are going to start a bit earlier than usual. If I am not wrong the war notice and the scouting missions would be coming to the camps as we speak, there are some scouting missions that are secondary and optional, and they would be left to the squads and companies to take voluntarily.

As for the compulsory scouting missions, the teams of individuals will be assigned directly by the battalion commander based on the compatibility of the candidates.”

”Battalion commander Yodha, notice from the Regiment commander.”

As they are speaking, a soldier yelled from outside the tent.

Yodha gave permission to enter. The man is a half-Naga and after saluting Yodha, he gave out a scroll and asked for permission to leave.

Yodha gestured him to leave and opened the scroll.

Inside there is a list of missions assigned to his battalion.

This is the protocol, there is a general gist of what every battalion specializes in at the Regiment commander's hands and he could assign the missions that are required to be done by them during the war and send them to the battalion commander and the battalion commander is responsible for assigning the missions to the suitable soldiers in his command.

As Yodha went to the last mission, he frowned and looked at Sam.

”He really is after you. Guess, Nagas are not really that different from humans.”

When Sam heard that he understood that the Regiment commander might have done something to target him.

It turned out that the regiment commander took it upon himself to assign a suitable candidate from Yodha's battalion, completely bypassing the chain of command and assigned Sam alone for a scouting mission, to a location which could be considered somewhat nearer to the enemy base.

The whole camp is sure that there would be people there. There is no need to send a scout at all.
