The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker

Chapter 104: New mission for the first squad

It was beyond the imagination of both Kayn and Old Chief George as they watches the current situation happening down below in the domes.

The previously dead living puppets have actually started getting up and attacking the soldiers nearby them.

"How could this be possible?" Old Chief George couldn't believe it.

"I didn't know that such ability existed in the Kingmaker," Kayn muttered while glimpsing at Natas, hoping for the latter to explain the reason for this scene.

"Living puppets. Do you understand what the word puppet actually means? I thought that I've informed you enough," Natas felt slightly disappointed at Kayn, "Here's a suggestion, since it's impossible for you to kill the puppeteer, then your second option is to burn the puppets,"

Hearing that, Kayn quickly informed Old Chief George while acting as if the information is his mere speculation.

"We can't possibly do that!" Old Chief George was immediately against the idea.

"If you don't want to burn the living puppets, then I suggest you think of other ways to make them harmless. Just to remind you, as long as a part of their body exist, they will actually continue to move in order to carry out and complete the command they've received from the wielder of the Kingmaker,"

Kayn is already aware that there is no other way aside from burning them.

Killing the puppets has already been proven to be ineffective against them as they would just stand back up again after some time has passed.

And if his guess is correct, even if they decide to dismember their body, that would most likely only make their situation even worst since that would result in each part of the body being able to do its own thing.

Locking them up in cells is also going to be impossible because they would not rest until they finally escape. And because they don't die, that would just make the true owner of the body suffer endlessly.

Old Chief George spent some time thinking of another method before eventually concluding that there is truly no other way but to burn them.

"As much as I hate to agree with this method of yours, just like the last time, I don't have any other choice," Old Chief George could only helplessly accept the truth.

Without further hesitation, he started telling the Mages unit to burn the bodies of the living puppets so that they won't be able to continue attacking their soldiers.

Although the Mages unit was against it from the start. But as they continue to see the living puppets simply standing right back after they killed them, they finally realized the same thing as Old Chief George.

In a matter of a few minutes, the problem with the living puppets was quickly solved.

Now it was time to turn their attention back to the mercenaries in the frontline and Chief Kylo.

The ongoing battle between the mercenaries and the soldiers is now close to its end.

The mercenaries might be stronger, but the soldiers were more organized and coordinated with one another.

Even though it doesn't seem like it because the soldiers are constantly defending while the mercenaries are constantly attacking. But if one would compare the total number of remaining men on both sides, one could easily guess that the soldiers are just being careful and are trying their best to minimize the casualties by only attacking when it is necessary.

However, when they turn their focus to the backline, they were instantly rendered astonished as they realized that Chief Kylo had already gone missing.

The reason they know is that Friedrich and the others are now sending signals that their target is nowhere to be found.

"It's just like what you expected," Old Chief George looks at Kayn. "I don't know how Chief Kylo did it, but I am certain that we won't be able to find him until he reveals himself again,"

With the disappearance of Chief Kylo, the war was more or less over.

"All of you are now free to do whatever you want on the battlefield," Old Chief George informs Friedrich and the others before he started to walk down the wall.

Kayn closely followed behind as Old Chief George signaled for him to come.

"We'll wait for them at the Town Hall,"

…..

After nearly an hour, Friedrich and the others entered Old Chief George's office.

A long table was already prepared for their arrival with Old Chief George in the middle with Kayn seated on his left side.

Friedrich and the others immediately understood the situation so they got themselves seated as well.

"Now that you're all here, let's begin with our post-war meeting," Old Chief George begins.

"As we all know, Chief Kylo has unfortunately escaped. We don't know where he went nor do we have a clue on what he intends to do next,"

"But according to Kayn here, he'd most likely not give up on destroying everything in 'The Bridge' with the help of the Assembly of Freedom. We don't know the exact reason why, but he seems to be very adamant about doing so,"

"I am guessing that it has to do with the soul weapon called Kingmaker," Friedrich suggested.

"That's also my guess. But until we get enough evidence to prove that, we will continue assuming that the Assembly of Freedom has finally decided to start making a move on everyone that doesn't belong to their guild,"

"After all, as far as I know, it's not only our Village that their guild has attacked. There are eleven more territories that they've wage war on at the same time as our Village,"

"Understood," Friedrich nodded his head in understanding.

"Anyways, my goal for this meeting is not to actually discuss with all of you what we should be doing now that the war is over. That's because the war is still far from being over,"

"Instead, I am here to inform all of you of your next task,"

Hearing that, Friedrich and the others can't help feeling excited about the new task.

To tell the truth, because of their strength, they rarely receive tasks for a month. There were even instances where they didn't receive a single mission for half a year. Most of the things they were doing during that time were exploring 'The Bridge' and getting stronger.please visit

Because it was Old Chief George's order, they have no other choice but to follow it, thus they continuously train their bodies as if there's no tomorrow.

And it only ended a few days ago as they received a new order from Old Chief George to protect the territories of their allies. But because some of their allies doesn't need protection, Old Chief George ordered them to return to the Green Horn Village.

Honestly, they were so delighted when they received a carrier pigeon along the way that carries a note which informs them that a war is about to come to the Green Horn Village. That was why they arrived very quickly.

"What is it all about this time?" Friedrich enthusiastically asked.

"I hope that it has to do with us looking for Chief Kylo!" Cedrick silently prayed.

"It will definitely be that!" Roshan felt certain that it is going to be like that.

"Or perhaps we have to look for the base of the Assembly of Freedom and infiltrate them," Kimberly suggested.

"Oh! That's even more exciting!" Cedrick gave Kimberly a thumbs up.

"And then we will assassinate their important members, including Chief Kylo as well," Natasha could already feel the thrill they have been longing for.

"Talking about a cherry on top of a cupcake! Sooo good!" Jackson clicks his tongue.

"I am afraid but it's none of that," Old Chief George shook his head.

Friedrich and the others instantly started feeling nervous deep inside. As far as they could remember, it would always be something bad whenever a situation like this popped up.

"Your next mission would be…" Old Chief George turns to look at Kayn.

As if understanding what it meant, Gilbert suddenly let out a loud laughter. "This is fantastic!"

From the very start, he was already more than aware that regardless of whatever the mission would be, he would have no choice but to get left behind by them because he has to continue babysitting Kayn.

However, right now…

"All of you will be babysitting Kayn as he completes all of his tasks listed in the way of 'The Bridge'."

"What?!!!!!!"

"Freaking hell! Tell me that this is a lie!"

"No, no, no! You must be kidding me!"

"We wanted thrill, excitement, danger. Yet you want us to babysit Kayn? Do you understand how we are feeling right now?"

"My cherry! My cupcake! Don't gooo!"

Meanwhile, Kayn was immediately taken aback to the point that he nearly fell from his chair. "Are you serious, Old Chief George?"

"Do you have a problem with my decision,"

"Definitely," Kayn nodded his head.

"Tell me,"

"What you are doing right now is no different from sending a bunch of powerful Heroes to guard a single sheep. It's not worth it!"

"Rest assured, this is just temporary,"

"What do you mean?" Friedrich frantically got closer to Old Chief George. The others also did the same.

"Right now, I am still waiting for the report from our allies' territory. We obviously can't make any effective plan if we don't have sufficient information about our enemy's movement, right?"

"So, until then, you'll protect Kayn as he is now a crucial member of the Green Horn Village. As in very important," After all, Kayn is the only person other than Chief Kylo that knows about the Kingmaker. If he is Chief Kylo, he'd definitely plan out an assassination attempt on Kayn so that there won't be any unknown variables next time.

"As for you," Old Chief George pointed his finger at Kayn. "Don't ever think that I've forgotten that you still have something else to do. Until you complete it, you won't be going anywhere far from my Village,"

"But…"

"How about we do it this way... As long as you complete everything in the ways of 'The Bridge' before everything that I needed is brought to my table, you will be able to come with Friedrich and the others in their next mission,"

"Are you perhaps telling us that there's a chance that we will permanently be babysitting him?" Friedrich was in complete disbelief.

"I am still not done," Old Chief George let out a cough, "Only if they agree,"

"What happens if they don't?"

"Then you'll have to stay with me until we finally solve the problem with the Assembly of Freedom,"

"Okay…" Kayn could only express his helplessness silently.

He already understood that it was because of what he had shown during the war that Old Chief George decided not to give him freedom anymore even if he completed the way of 'The Bridge'. Otherwise, he'd be risking his life.

However, deep inside, he is already trying to come up with a solution to this problem. After all, he doesn't have the leisurely to stay in the Green Horn Village until there's finally no danger anymore. He still has other things to do, especially looking for the most important item on Natas' list.

"That's all. Meeting dismiss,"
