Dozens of minutes after Clark took off with his entourage of soldiers, he finally arrived at the border territory of Vatican City.
On arriving, he reduced the speed at which he traveled on the highway before navigating directly to the city hall, where the current diplomatic leaders of the city were waiting.
After informing them some minutes ago that he was coming, they all quickly converged from wherever they were to the city hall.
After another 2 minutes of driving without sidelining, he finally arrived at the large city hall.
All the influential leaders of the city stood outside the hall like a group of students welcoming their principal with respectful expressions on their faces, as they welcomed their new superior.
Clark did not go inside the hall to discuss with them. He just exchanged greetings with the leaders, thanked them for finding time to come out and welcome him, before apologizing as he had to go.
After leaving his soldiers to
In a brightly lit and well-furnished sitting room, Emily sat on one of the chairs, discussing leisurely with her friend. Today, she got dressed again in her red and black adventure-like outfit.Not long after, they ended their discussion before going out together. This time, Clark got dressed in a combat vest also, with a pair of black designers unaffiliated military trousers to complement it.After entering the car, they quickly drove out in the direction of the weapons specialist’s town.In this part of the Landmark kingdom, the weapons specialist’s town is a town that was established only for those selling and dealing in machinery-related jobs and occupations. It was a haven for machines.It was where most of the people specializing in anything related to machines and technology are found.This was where Monkey hands recommended Clark to go, to get his mask scanned to know its exact value.As the town was not far from the loca
After getting out of the territory of the weapons specialist’s town, Clark took a sharp turn, driving to the outskirts of the town. As the town was close to the Landmark border, they were essentially going to the outskirts of the country.During their discussions back in the day, they settled on taking the simplest and most practical mission. As its location was also the closest to the Landmark kingdom, they readily settled on it.As it was a level 1 mission, it was not too difficult. For the current them, the mission was simply beans. But they still had to be cautious, as not everything was as they eye saw, complications could arise at any point.The target of the mission was a pirate soldier. Scarface was the name he was known as. He was only a 1st rank high-grade soldier, so they did not feel any pressure on taking it.The only thing that could develop to become a problem, was that the man developed a small pirate organization that already had ab
After packing up their stuff and equipment, the group of mercenaries finally embarked on their journey to the deeper parts of the forest.None of them came with cars or any other traveling companion, so they all trudged deeper into the forest by foot. The journey was completely silent, as Clark and Emily trailed behind them with the poker expressions still on their faces.The mercenary who originally seemed like the strongest finally brought out a device to check the direction that they were going at, after confirming that the frightening female mercenary was not still pissed from what happened earlier.After checking the special mercenary tracking device, he quickly found what he wanted. He opened his mouth to speak but was swift to stop himself, he secretly scolded himself for being careless before he turned to look at Emily.His look was self-explanatory, it was the permission-asking look. Please, can I speak?After getting a stiff nod from her,
Clark was confused and perplexed by Emily’s decision to name her mercenary group after his surname. The reason that she gave for making the decision, was even weirder to him.“What is going on in her head?” He sighed again, recalling the reason why she named it after him.According to her, she named it Pendragon because she did not want to run and manage it alone. She wanted him to be the leader. The reason for her wanting him to be the leader, she did not mention.“Girls are really…?” He shook his head to dispel his random thoughts, before turning back to face her and the mercenaries.Though shouting that you’ve created a mercenary organization was simple, officially starting it after registration was troublesomely tedious.He was happy that he suddenly became the leader of a mercenary group from nowhere, but he accepted it calmly only because he did not have to take care of it. She was still the default

For the next days after he had a meeting with all the leaders and commissioners of Vatican City, Clark trained for most of the time, while at times calling again for other meetings to know the current development.During these meetings, he already forged small bonds with some of the leaders and diplomats.He was able to get close and know more about them, and he already knew the people he would remove from their positions as soon as his inauguration was successfully done.After 16 days since the terms were laid, his mansion was finally built. He launched its opening with a small party between the leaders, to forge closer relationships with them.Throughout the month, his normal routine was practically just to train, train, and engage in meetings with the leaders.Despite the slow manner in which the days passed to him, it was finally here, April 2nd, the day of his inauguration. Op
On hearing the surprising news that his relatives came to visit him, he was at first surprised, before quickly coming to a realization. He did not know if he should laugh or cry.He should have expected it. He was no longer the insignificant Clark that he was 4 years ago; he now had an exalted status.His originally cold relatives suddenly coming to meet him now no longer seemed surprising, if their motive was to come to lick his boots and make their relationships better with him.“The words of the wise are always right”. He sighed ruefully.Pursue greatness, and greatness will come voluntarily to you. This was the exact template of what was happening. He had never seen his relatives physically before, but now they were coming to him voluntarily.Well, dwelling on such insignificant matters was not his style. He calmly sat down on his master chair, before telling his butler to let them in.A minute after he gave the order,
At the edge of one of the countries bordering the Spartan republic, the spy men dynasty, a large battle was currently going on in the nearby forest between the borders of the 2 countries.Gunshots rang repeatedly, forming a loud cacophony of ear-splitting sounds, as soldiers died every minute like chickens in a slaughter hall.The forest floor was already dyed all over with blood, but this did not deter the soldiers as they continued attacking each other like they had a thousand-year-old vendetta.This was one of the few mercenary missions of average scale, that the Pendragon mercenary organization took and got involved in.In the terms of the Mercenary Alliance, small-scale missions are those involving only one mercenary organization. High-scale missions involve between 5 and above amount of mercenary organizations, to ensure their successful completion.While the ones that they were currently engaged in, average scale missions, were the ones that
