"It's all set, I'll cut communication for now, don't waste energy on stupid things."
"Goodbye..." Dropping the headset, Christian dropped his arms as his back hunched weakly "What a piece of shit..."
Blinking in a daze, Christian shut his eyelids tightly and opened them again, feeling his gaze grow increasingly blurry from the obvious lack of blood.
Turning his gaze sideways, Christian's eyes blurred at so much death surrounding him, only to sigh and look up "I hate this so much..."
"This way!"
Turning his gaze towards the sound of the voice, Christian grabbed his sword and struggled to his feet, then shakily walked with his sword as a cane.
"Holy shit..." Arriving through the trees, a group of about 20 armed women arrived in front of Christian's vision, but seeing the disaster in the area, even they who have arduous experience in wars and assassinations, were completely stunned and shocked at such carnage.
"Where is the medic?" Quickly straightening his posture while overexerting himself to hide his lack of strength, Christian frowned slightly and asked.
"H-here they come!" Trembling slightly at the sight of the blood-soaked figure, a woman responded quickly, but the respect and fear in her voice was never so obvious.
"Okay" Looking at the group of 4 women in military garb but white bandanas, Christian walked towards them and looked at the rescue stretcher they brought, then waved his hand down and commented "What are you waiting for?"
"*Gulp* Y-yes" Swallowing saliva, the head medic quickly nodded and lowered the stretcher, then helped Christian lie down and set the locks.
"I know you're experts at this, but don't forget to clean my wounds and give me the necessary shots. I got a lot of blood splattered inside my wounds and some enemy knives had rust on them."
"I-I understand!"
"I have vials of antidotes in my clothes, I want you to inject me with all but the purple one" Knowing that it is better to be safe than sorry, Christian continued "Don't worry if they get mixed up, since they are made for that."
Closing his eyes, Christian rested his heavy sword on his chest and sighed wearily.
'It'll be a disaster tomorrow.'

"37 stab wounds, 6 severed veins, 49 deep cuts, a total of 150 stitches in order to close you completely..." Looking at the medical report, Wrath rubbed her forehead and looked at Christian who was smiling weakly on the bed "You're an asshole."
"I know."
"You were a few minutes away from bleeding out, and if you hadn't prepared blood beforehand, you would have died even if you had medics."
"I know"
"I hate you" Shaking her head, Wrath tossed the medical report on the table and sighed, then crossed her legs and commented "Shall I give you the report now?"
"Yes..."
"We collected 347 bodies in your battle zone, all were already moved to a safe area to cremate and disappear. We also set the entire area on fire with gasoline to avoid leaving any clues, whether it be your blood or any hair" Pulling out a laptop, Wrath continued "Inside BlackWater's house we found 109 mercenaries and they were all crushed by the collapse and we made sure of their death, although most of the bodies were left in the area, it is estimated that the army and police should already be in the area."
"The policemen we kidnapped have already been released and our people have retreated to safe areas to hide for a while, it is estimated that in a week they should be back in the United States".
"Currently the army has already besieged the city and the whole area is on high alert. Needless to say, the media has surrounded the entire area and it will be hectic for a while."
"As for Africa..." Moving her laptop over to Christian, Wrath played a video.
-Gluttony, green light-
-Hahaha, here we go!- Pulling out a controller from between her clothes, Gluttony swallowed saliva with a broad spit and pressed multiple buttons, then pressed the largest one and exclaimed -Die bitches!-
-*Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom* *Boom*-
Instantly hundreds of missiles came out of the vehicles, the camera shook and the whole place filled with smoke, but even though Gluttony could hardly breathe, the big smile and her bright eyes were perfectly captured on camera, while a large amount of fire and smoke began to come from the distance.
-Base down!
Pausing the video, Wrath sighed "The Africa team is not out yet as right now they are still retreating with the missile launchers, but so far so good and we confirm around 3900 kills on those military bases."
"What about the mercenaries around the world?"
"Now I was getting to that" Switching the video, Wrath this time shows a pedestrian surveillance camera.
The video looked pretty ordinary, citizens walking in broad daylight and everything full of people, until the camera focused on one woman in particular and Christian saw the cleanest murder of today.
Everything was fast, in fact it didn't last more than 5 seconds.
The mercenary was walking calmly and suddenly a woman in front of her collided with her body, but before she could complain, two other people came from behind and collided with her.
A second later, the 3 women were gone as the mercenary clutched her stomach in disbelief, only to fall on the ground and fill everything with blood.
"3 stabbed, no one recognized the faces of our people and they didn't even see the murder weapon."
"Not bad."
"She is just one example, we eliminated exactly 672 other mercenaries scattered around the world, without any casualties and without solid evidence to drag us down."
"Based on all this, for now the mission is considered a resounding success and we declare within our files the downfall of BlackWater" Closing the computer, Wrath sighed and put it aside, then looked at Christian's completely bandaged body and shook her head "You're such an asshole"
"I know" Looking at the TV with boredom, Christian turned his gaze to the window and commented "Did you clean this hostel?"
"Nothing to incriminate us, no guns, no cameras, no nothing. I even changed the staff and brought in others, I also hid your sword so it wouldn't arouse suspicion."
"Well... my weapon?"
"I hid it"
"Fucking bitch" Knowing he had to crawl into his clothes for that, Christian chuckled and shifted awkwardly, then sat on the bed and gritted his teeth at the pain enveloping his body "Hand me your computer."
Frowning, Wrath looked down at Christian's body and commented with annoyance "You bastard, I told you to rest."
"Bitch, you're taking advantage of me being hurt to insult me, aren't you?" Raising an eyebrow with a small smile, Christian continued "Now you could take advantage of me, I'm a wounded little sheep~"
"You're such a fucking maniac" Letting out an involuntary laugh, Wrath put the computer down next to Christian and clicked her tongue "I'll go keep an eye on everything, if you need anything call me."
"Just rest, Emily is already making me dinner and she'll be joining me"
"Whatever" Waving her hand lazily, Wrath yawned and left the room, causing Christian to lose his smile instantly and sigh.
"Almost 5000 deaths in one day... what a tough load."
***
Pausing the computer video, Dimitri rubbed his chin and while smiling unconsciously.
"This is... unbelievable" Leaning back on the couch with a surprised face, Natasha muttered "Is he even human? Even I would have trouble with more than 30 people... but he can handle hundreds."
Although Christian fought in the middle of the forest and under an ambush he certainly didn't fully expect, Dimitri was a case apart.
From day one he knew this was going to happen and from the beginning he made preparations.
Because while he wants Christian to spread his wings, he doesn't want his son to die either.
So without Christian knowing, he prepared a group of snipers and left them guarding from a distance, giving him the mission to act only when necessary and at the same time, to record everything.
But just as he predicted, Christian needed no help and ended up taking a beautiful fight to watch, something that even he enjoyed in his heart as a battle that in his eyes is memorable.
The pride in Dimitri's eyes could practically solidify, as his thin body seemed to rejuvenate in joy and his chest puffed out at what he saw.
The old man couldn't have been happier and prouder.
"But this is worrisome" Losing his smile, Dimitri narrowed his eyes at the screen and continued "We didn't know that China has these forces, and they are certainly a force to be feared."
"I thought the same thing, so I looked at the information your son gave us" Taking the cell phone out of his pocket, Natasha entered the information system and commented "They call themselves the occult union, he doesn't have much information either but he says that it is formed by sects with different specialties... he remarked that this is a theory, but the sect that attacked him today calls itself 'Sect of occult weapons', so he estimates that based on the beliefs, there must be sects of swords, poisons, among others".
"Also, it speaks of being a union, the number of sects should not be small, and all go back hundreds of years according to historical records."
"Cults with hundreds of years of history..." Frowning deeply, Dimitri murmured "It worries me a lot not knowing about this... it worries me even more to know that they have so many skilled people and that this is just the tail of it all... even more in case they have a sect specialized in poison, I can't even imagine what they have achieved with hundreds of years of research."
"I'm concerned about the fact that they're making it so public now after hiding it for so long" Nodding, Natasha continued "It's weird that they're only bringing it out for Christian"
"I think with the number of people they sent, they tried to make a little war with Christian and his army. They should have known that by the time they got their people out we would know about them"
"Maybe to show power?" frowning slightly in thought, Dimitri continued "Christian killed a very influential and high level military, it was no different than a slap in the face for them and it's normal for them to try to show their dominance, even if it means showing one of their hidden cards."
"That's all I can think of" Nodding, Natasha thought for a few seconds and asked "What do you think Christian will do now? He's already wiped out BlackWater, that's billions of dollars in losses for the big families, no doubt they'll be furious."
Chuckling, Dimitri thought for a few seconds and commented "He'll negotiate with the Chinese".
"Will he negotiate with them?" Raising her eyebrows, Natasha continued "Even after they almost killed him and all the trouble he went through because of them?"
"If it were Christian guiding policy, he would most likely fight to the death, but the one who handles political affairs is his suborbinate, Envy. I know that girl well and she has a sharp mind, she will go down the path of negotiation."
"And your son will accept it?"
"Although Christian hates politics and certainly prefers violence, that doesn't mean he doesn't think and is driven by emotions. They will certainly take the path of negotiation."
"So he's willing to give in..."
"Give in? I think he'll take a piece of meat from the Chinese, but we'll see."
