Adopted Soldier-Chapter 313

Chapter 313

When Richter heard that they lost contact with Henry, he could no longer contain his rage and screamed . He then proceeded to destroy his room, he punched the walls, kicked the closets, and started shooting randomly at the air .

. . .

Henry who was now dead would be surprised to see Richter this angry . Henry before dying truly thought Richter sent him to Sayaka to die, yet the truth was different . In Richter's eyes no matter how famous the current Shadow was, he was nothing but a second grade assassin, not to mention the target was the weaker Sayaka . Richter truly believed that one of his subordinates was enough to handle such a situation . Since in his eyes both the current Shadow and Sayaka were nothing but babes that could barely survive a real battle .

He really didn't expect that his subordinate that has been carefully handpicked by the Greyhound family to be this weak .

So once Richter was able to calm down a bit, he called for the four who had finished their mission properly .

. . .

When the four entered Richter's private room, the first thing they saw were the cracks on the wall, and then the destroyed metal closets . The four of them seeing this scene knew that their boss wasn't going to act reasonably .

There were only two times their boss acted like this . The first time was the time when he just recently killed his brother . The second time was when he was forced to retreat from Lyner . Every time he got this angry he would first start complaining, then he would ask his best subordinates to spar with him, that was basically him asking to beat everyone until they were near death .

When Richter saw the four enter his room, he sat down on the remains of a broken chair . He then sternly looked at his subordinates while radiating killing intent . The four could practically hear each others heart beating faster, because of fear .

The four of them, no, it was not only them but the majority of the members of the Shadow Mercenaries, were afraid of this person . They who were people who were mostly fearless . Their pride and courage was so big that not even the threat of death could get them to act like this . Yet in front of Richter, his sheer presence alone was enough to make them fear him .

"Do you know why I called you here?" Richter asked while looking at each of them . None of the four knew the answer so they remained silent .

"As expected, of course you incompetent fools can't even answer such a simple question . What was I expecting . . . " Richter stood up and slowly walked towards the four . When he got near them he looked at them one by one with a menacing glare .

"I called you here today, because of the failure of two of your comrades . I also heard that most of you had some difficulty kidnapping the targets . Of course, as humans that aren't Greyhounds I wasn't expecting much from you people . Still I was hoping that you my very own subordinates the ones who inherited the title of Shadow Mercenaries from my family, would be somehow competent . Yet what have I found out, you all weren't able to perfectly and easily kidnap children who haven't been in the battlefield for as long as you people . Not only that, two of you actually failed to capture their targets, and instead one of them was the one captured, while the other was killed! Do you know how utterly ashamed and disappointed I was when I heard this!? Do you four know?! I was so ashamed that I even contemplated changing the organization's name into something else . I really wanted to avoid the shame that one of our members was captured by a little girl!"

Richter then punched each one of the four, the pain of the punch was great but they withstood it without changing their expressions . The reason they did this, was because once they show any weakness at that moment they would be killed by Richter . Seeing that not one of the four moved or expressed pain, didn't really impressed Richter . To him this was suppose to be normal . After punching his subordinates he continued speaking .

"I promised my grandson that all of his friends would be here . Are you people trying to make me into a liar!" Once again Richter punched one of them .

"If I knew this was going to happen, I should've personally done the job . How was I suppose to know that my subordinates that supposedly survive through numerous life and death situations would be so weak that they can't even kidnap some teenagers properly . . . Now this begs the question, if you people are so worthless that you can't even do this kind of mission properly, what do I need you for? I guess being my top ten subordinates made you guys even more arrogant and complacent . Did you guys think because you are the top ten in here, that means your are strong? I guess that's my bad, making you people feel that way . So as my way of saying sorry to your delusions, how about I kill all of you swiftly without pain . It's not like its going to be hard to pick a new top ten, and replace you people . What do you four think, should I do that?"

The four of them dryly gulped, they knew that this old man wasn't joking . He really would kill them if they don't say something . Hektor then stepped forward and spoke .

"Sir, I don't think that's a fair assessment . I did my job perfectly, lumping me together with the two weaklings that got caught, is an insult . Also I'm sure that if you kill us, the next ten would never even come close to how good we, the current ten are . "

"Oh, you certainly grown some bigger balls Hektor . " Richter started emitting the full extent of his killing intent and directed it at Hektor . Normally those who felt this kind of pressure from Richter, would faint or even die . Yet Hektor stood proudly without flinching . Still deep inside he felt terrified, as he currently feeling that he was staring at the face of the embodiment of Death itself .

Richter who saw Hektor remaining calm, made Richter feel truly impressed . After seeing some form of competence from his subordinate, he was finally able to calm down . Richter then stopped emitting killing intent and sighed .

"Fine, I will give you people another chance, but be warned this is the last chance . Seeing as I seem to have miscalculated how competent you people are, I don't have any confidence on Samuel capturing Rachel . I'm going to send you four as his backup . Knowing that, she among all the others is the one who should be caught at all cost, I hope this time you people will do your job properly . Once your done capturing her, bring her back immediately, afterwards continue on as a group and capture the other two that haven't been captured . Finally if you see Drake kill him . "

"Sir, yes, sir!" The four of them saluted . The easy going attitudes they had when they started this mission could no longer be seen, this time they would treat this mission as seriously as possible . Failure was no longer an option .
