437 Going Back To Boston
“I’m leaving,” as Fang saw all this and got amused, he decided to leave. But it seemed he wasn’t the only hyped up one here.
“I’ll also go,” Wryly suddenly said, “I need to arrange many things and see those bastards running around to kill them.”
He was indeed a perfect example of a war supporter. I had nothing to say but to just remind them: “Give me all the updates about the deals with your paragons.”
“Ok.”
“Don’t raise up your hopes.”
The two left with their armies while I stood up on my chariot and watched them.
To be honest, the size of their forces wasn’t that much as I imagined. Also it was clear how smaller Fang’s forces were.
“What about us?” as the two left with their forces, Isabella came to ask.
“We will stay back and build up our forces,” I slowly said as I turned to face all of them, “we… Lack of a lot of things. We need to train and get stronger.”
“We got you, boss, we need nothing more,” the spearhead tried to crack a joke but this was a wrong mindset to have.
“That’s wrong,” I said it out loud, “at the last couple of fights, I had to go away for unknown periods of time. And you took the toll out of it. First was at that dungeon thing, then it occurred again during the fight with the alien universe…”
I paused, letting them all understand what I was speaking about before adding, “So we need to train and evolve. These aren’t our old peaceful times where one of two elite humans could lead the entire race to a better future. In these times, everyone should be unique and act for the better future of all of us. Without that, we will lose bit by bit until we end up losing at the end.”
“We are with you boss.”
“Just tell us what you want us to do.”
“I have followed you since day one of the apocalypse, and you know I deeply trust you. Just tell us what you want and we will do it.”
All of them started to show their support, one by one. I nodded to each one, as this moment was a real decisive one.
The most ironic thing here was that everyone was present, all but my two aces; the jumper and Hilary. One was sick and the other… Was recuperating from her exhaustion.
“We first will arrange our forces here,” I looked around before adding, “I don’t know the exact topography of the area. Speak with you and draw a more detailed map of the area from here to Kentucky in the south, then all the way to the eastern coast. Arrange your forces in pyramid shape, the closer to the hot the zone the less forces we have, and vice versa.”
“What?!!!” they all looked at me in a weird way. Of course they expected me to arrange the forces opposite to this, but I wasn’t that short sighted. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
“The areas next to the hot zones controlled by Wryly’s boys aren’t that much important to me,” I slowly explained before adding, “so we are going to turn these zones into buffer areas, areas that will work to delay any enemy progress without much losses.”
They started to get my point fast. “But… Won’t the Berserker be mad?”
This question came from none other than Hilary. My girl came up, dressed in loose armour that extended like a gown over her exposed long legs.
“Get dressed girl,” Karoline was the first to jump and hug here. She took out a longer armour and a cape, placed both over my girl’s sexy body to hide it.
Well, it seemed she just got up drowsy and dizzy, and came here without getting time to wake fully.
Yet she managed to get most of what happened, meaning she was eavesdropping for long enough.
What? Did she lazily wake up and decide to just keep in the bed and listen to our talk up above her? Or did she use some sort of spying item? Did she think I’d cheat on her?
This girl… This chick… She was turning more unbearable if she kept doing this.
“He won’t say anything against this,” I shrugged, motioned for her to come and surrounded her with my arms in a big hug. “He is just a war lover, and letting fight is the best thing he will ever dream about.”
“O… Ok,” she weakly said, leant her head in surrender over my chest while surrounding my body with her petite arms.
As for her long hair, it just was left behind her, extending for a metre or so over the chariot.
“What?” I noticed the gazes of others, and couldn’t help but look directly at them.
“Nothing… Nothing boss,” Leo raised both hands in the air.
“You are indeed my boss,” and the spearhead just threw such a mean comment that gave him a long glare.
As for the girls, they seemed to decide to spare the talk with me and had it with my girl instead.
“So you are going to select one tenth of your forces and station them in all the cities and towns under our control,” I returned to the main topic before adding, “then with each state distance, you will station twenty percent. As for the rest, they will come with us towards the capital.”
“Boston?” Sara asked and I nodded.
“What are we going to do with all of them?” Isabella seemed to not like my idea, though, “we should just spread them here to gain more experience.”
“Perhaps the boss is planning to let them into the dungeon,” Leo said.
“Even so,” Sara joined, seemingly standing on the same step as Isabella on this topic, “we should let them gain fighting experience, not limit their actions around the peaceful capital.”
“Are you done?” I was looking calm towards all this. Just saying these words made them all startled, look at me in doubt as I added:
“I’m not just going to let them go into the dungeon we cleared, but also we will go to another dungeon to clear later on and let them keep clearing it. However…”
