Chapter 362 Begin operation (2/2)
Even though Matthew agreed to follow orders, hearing, again and again, such things, like him making a mistake as if he was child that doesn't know better had poked his pride.
When Dan heard what Matthew said his fighting spirit, as well as his bloodlust, rose. He looked at Matthew with a weird look of disdain and anger.
”Heh, Just because you and Alex are called the geniuses of this generation, doesn't mean you guys are the strongest. I was already battle worthy when you were still wearing diapers. I was already a merc when you were still trying to learn how to walk. A single finger of mine has more experience than every fiber of your being. So if someone is going to make a mistake among us, it's going to be you brat. If you don't believe me then how about a little spar, so I can show you how truly weak you are.”
Matthew then took out his gun and was about to shoot, but then he saw Dan was already near him. Matthew instantly went into his pseudo RELEASE form and tried to retreat, but Dan was able to stick close to him. Matthew then took out a knife and decided to fight Dan in close quarters.
Dan seeing Matthew's decision to fight in a melee made him smile. Even though this kid was full of pride, he was also gutsy which Dan liked. When he got near enough Dan was about to punch Matthew in the gut, while Matthew was trying to block Dan's fist using his knife. Yet before the two of them could hit the other somebody interrupted them.
”ENOUGH!” Carlo suddenly shouted which forced both Dan and Matthew to take some distance from each other.
”He's the one who started this.” Matthew pointed at Dan.
”Carlo this brat, needs to be taught a lesson in respect. I decided to-” Dan wasn't even able to finish what he wanted to say before Carlo once again interrupted him.
”I don't want to hear your excuses! I don't need you guys getting injured and wasting bullets before the mission. If you really want to kill each other, wait until the mission is over, but right now both of your lives are mine to command. The only time you fight is when I tell you to fight. The only time you die is when I tell you to die. Do both of you understand?”
Hearing Carlo's commanding tone, made the prideful Matthew, and even the reckless Dan stand at attention before answering.
”Sir, yes, sir!” The two even saluted, Carlo then responded with a nod of his head.
”As long as you guys understand. The mission will begin in ten minutes. So instead of fighting, how about you guys get ready.”
