Chapter 1809 Reinforcement

Tang Shaoyang returned to the frontier, and Commander Edson rushed toward him as soon as he sighted the young administrator.

"You can order your subordinates to take the loot!" Tang Shaoyang pointed at the scattered pile of equipment behind him. He thought Edson would be asking for that, but he was wrong.

"What did you do to your team? Can you do it to my soldiers?" Edson immediately went straight to the point. Despite his short interaction with the young administrator, he knew that flattery would not work for the young administrator. He went straight to the request, the power-up.

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow but was reminded of the army of the void creature under the Void Gate. He understood why Edson made such a request to him, especially after witnessing how powerful his team was in the battle.

"I can't do it, especially for the entire army. I can only do it with up to eight people."

Edson furrowed his brow when he heard, but it was to be expected because the skill would be too powerful if Tang Shaoyang could power up an entire army.

"Then I will choose a few people to receive—"

Tang Shaoyang cut him off before Edson finished his words. "I never agreed to use the skill on your subordinate, Commander Edson. And I will never agree to use the skill on the people I don't trust. I will not use the skill on your subordinates!" He emphasized the last part once more.

The frown on Edson's forehead deepened when he heard an outright refusal. "What do you mean!? We are at war! How could you still be selfish like this just to keep your skill secret from us!?"

"That's right, we are at war, and I fought together with you, or maybe not..." He recalled that he went on his own during the battle. "I helped you, killing the void creatures, getting rid of the bodies before it became nasty, and I don't take any of those loots even though I have my own army to arm, knowing those loots will help your legion."

"You keep your lecture for your subordinates, not me. I came here to help you as an extra reinforcement, and I did what I was supposed to. In this battle, you suffered fewer casualties, or maybe none at all because I have killed the strong void creatures, more than half of them before they could reach the wall."

"If we see based on contribution alone, I think I did the most work during this battle. You can't ask for more than that, Commander Edson."

"But your duty as administrator is to fight the Void Cult. Helping us will help you to achieve your goal to—"

With that kind of power, her captain did not deserve his current rank. Even among the Chief Administrators, she believed that her captain would be the strongest one.

"Or maybe he is on the same level as the Executive Administrator..."

For some reason, she expected a response in her head. Radiance would not stay still every time he had the chance to boast about his master or his fellow spirits. She had gotten used to hearing his voice in the last five days, and she felt like something was missing when she did not hear him.

The fusion was canceled a few minutes ago, and the reason why she just took a bath even though she had returned after a while. She would not take a bath when there was someone inside her.

A message popped out, and it was from her clan member. [Captain's back.]

Khaya dashed toward the door, and she met three of her clan members. They all turned toward her, confused as to why their former captain was in such a hurry.

She coughed a few times, playing it cool as if nothing happened. She straightened her clothes and walked to the stairs. When she arrived on the first floor, she caught a glimpse of her captain's back, getting into his own room.

Khaya went to Ira who was currently munching a local snack. "What's our next assignment?"

*** ***

A few days after the battle against the army of the void creature. Tang Shaoyang was called by Commander Edson for a discussion. He was allowed to bring up to four people with him into the meeting, and Team Kalisto received the same invitation from Commander Edson.

Everyone knew that their commander had been in a meeting for the last few days, trying to secure more reinforcements for the next battle. They won the first battle, but the battle was not over.

Captain Atkins, the squad captain under Commander Edson picked them up and guided them to the meeting location. The meeting room was quite small, and could only accommodate up to twenty people at most. It was much smaller than the one he had in the capital or the one in the Administrator Space.

The commander was seated at the end of the long table with his seven generals around him. Tang Shaoyang took the seat closest to the door which was furthest from the commander. There was no particular reason he chose this seat because it was closest to him. Khaya, Anne, and Ira sat to his left, and Team Kalisto sat across from them.

"I will get straight to the point as to why I call you here. After a long discussion, we agreed to create an alliance army because of the unprecedented situation we have right now. The alliance army compromised several alliances and factions that volunteered to send their force to help us, and I want you to take command over the alliance army. They have agreed for the administrator to take the command instead of choosing one of them. They want an unbiased commander to lead them, and they agreed for the administrator to lead them!"
