1629 A Spy

That night, after everyone had returned to their home. Someone was actually talking to someone in their Skylink.

"Yeah. That's the plan. It's better for you to attack them earlier. So, maybe in a week or so. And don't forget to pretend to fall for their tricks to let them drop their guards."

The sound coming from the Skylink was rough and its hoarse voice sounded like it wasn't from a human.

It replied to this man. "You don't have to worry about what we're planning to do. We are not like humans who will rely on sneak attacks.

"If they want to harass us, we'll show them who among us is stronger! If they want to launch an all-out attack, we shall defeat them first."

"You… If you send your strong people the moment they harass you, they'll realize something is off. They might suspect me as a spy." The man gritted his teeth.

"That will be better. By letting them know there is a spy among them, it'll make them wary. They won't trust each other and chaos will spread from them. There won't be any more instruction to those people at the bottom and we can defeat those disorganized humans."

"What? You're putting me in danger."

"Don't forget, human. You are only our lowly slave. We've promised not to kill you in exchange for your loyalty. However, don't push us too much. If you don't do well, we might kill you as well!"

"You…"

"We are the supreme race that should rule this world that is mostly filled with water. It's because of your human stupidity that threatens our environment with all the trash that you're in this situation right now. This is retribution. If you think you can stop us, then try it."

The man gritted his teeth, never expecting this guy to be so stubborn.

"There is a human called Theodore Griffith. If you underestimate him too much, you'll suffer."

"Theodore Griffith this, Theodore Griffith that. We don't care. He is not even the strongest human, so why should we care? And in this battle, he shall die together with the rest of the humans."

"You…" The man gritted his teeth. All the humans had known how ferocious Theo was in battle. However, these creatures weren't aware of Theo's reputation. They thought humans were just lowly races that could be easily conquered by their overwhelming power.

No matter how hard he tried to warn them, they wouldn't listen to him.

"These creatures… I have warned them!" He slammed the table in frustration.

Theo and Rea had expected a spy among them. But Rea didn't know that the spy worked as soon as he got the information.

She was resting on her bed while waiting for the reply from the headquarters.

The next morning, she was called by the soldier to meet Logan, who had received the reply from the headquarters.

"We have received the reply." Logan handed her the document while telling her the summary. "The headquarters have agreed to your plan and will send a third of our support here. However, the soldiers will go to the other front to handle the monsters there."

Maya confirmed what he said. The documents stated the same thing.

'Then, does this mean I've been mistaken about Theo's letter? I thought that people couldn't accept the battle plan because it was a bit ridiculous…' Rea paused for a moment.

There was one thing she hadn't thought of. Rea was inexperienced in commanding a huge battle. Unlike Theo, who had done so many real-life simulation games against his grandfather, Rea didn't know much about commanding the army.

That was the reason why Theo asked one person to handle the army on her behalf.

She glanced at Logan, who stood up and saluted.

"I'll be under your command in this battle. Let me learn from the so-called disciple of Theodore Griffith as well as the daughter of the Sword Saint."

"I'm no one. I have no reputation other than relying on those two big figures. So, I won't be commanding your troops. I can give you some advice on how to send the people, and I'll also tell you about the plans during the battle, but the decision will be yours.

"I hope that you can use your experience to support me in the upcoming battle." Rea smiled. After Logan gave her the authority, Rea humbly returned it to him without rejecting the idea of her leading the battle.

This way, both of them could do their jobs respectively.

Logan smiled. Rea might be inexperienced in his eyes, but she seemed aware she was too green and allowed him to command the army. She didn't show her arrogance and blindly rushed to the battlefield with that authority. It was truly an act befitting her status as Theo's disciple.

"In that case, I'll have the pleasure of fighting under you." Logan nodded in agreement.

"Mhm." Rea nodded and read the rest of the documents to make sure about their deployment.

After reading the documents, Rea added two things. "By the way, I want you to place your soldiers on the front line as soon as possible. Also, tell your elite squads to be extra careful."

"Understood." Logan nodded.

Since she had fulfilled her task in this place, she left the base and immediately rushed back to their territory.

'I guess I should burn Theo's second letter since it doesn't seem I'll be using it. The battle plan has been accepted anyway… Or maybe I should ask Agata about this? Agata is more experienced than me, considering she has been helping the military in United Asia. She is also more skilled in this kind of battle…'

Rea contemplated for a moment before another answer came into her head.

"Wait a minute… I'm inexperienced, right? If that's the case, the battle plan might not be his battle plan but mine. He thinks they won't accept my order because I'm still too green, so at that time, I should open that letter…"

This answer made Rea fall into deep thought before deciding not to rely on Agata for the time being. This was a test from Theo, so she had to finish it alone.
