Chapter 169: Bidding Goodbye
Chapter 169: Bidding Goodbye
“Shall we go?” Lily looked at me and asked.
I nodded. “Where are we going now?”
“Don’t you want to send off Tanya?” She asked me.
I took a deep breath. Tanya just left abruptly. I wanted to see her last time but my time was limited but I was quite surprised that she still hasn’t left the headquarters.
“Yes,” I don’t know when I am going to see her again.
“Hmmm,” Her gaze was fixed on me for a moment before she turned and started walking towards the elevator.
All this while, I could see some complex emotions in her eyes. I don’t know what is she thinking.
I shook my head and followed her. After many twists and turns, I saw that many soldiers were entering another huge building. But my gaze drew towards an enormous spaceship standing at a distance, surrounded by soldiers.
I took a deep breath. This spaceship was really huge. It was circular, just like those UFOs in the movies. I couldn’t believe that I could see something like this in my life.
But suddenly, Lily’s voice reached my ears.
“We should go.”
My gaze returned to Lily, and I nodded.
As soon as I stepped into the building, I was greeted by the sight of many soldiers in a white uniform roaming here and there.
“They are the special unit of the forces,” Lily said to me while her eyes were fixed on those soldiers.
“Special Units?” I asked her. This is the first time I am hearing about this.
She nodded. “Yes, special unit. Which are dispatched only in the time of emergency,”
Her gaze shifted to me. “I think Tanya would have told you about the condition in the front lines, right?”
I frowned when I heard her words. I don’t know much about the condition in the frontier.
After seeing my reaction, she shook her head and said, “Some powerful enemies have attacked our base. After such a long time, we are in a passive situation. And we know little about the enemy. It is as if they have emerged out of the air.”
My brows were raised when I heard her. Who are these people? Are they so mysterious that even forces don’t know about their enemy?
“Tanya is going to lead this unit. Even though her unit was stationed on the planet. But many of them died while the remaining are defending the base.” Lily looked at me and said.
I exhaled and looked at these soldiers. I could see that these soldiers had a smile on their faces, but I could feel that they just want to relish the memories as much as they can. No one knows who is going to survive in the future.
“Ironic, isn’t it?” Lily asked me.
My brows were arched when I heard her, but I nodded, “Truly ironic. No one knows about the future and I would be the same in the coming days. “
She nodded and her gaze returned to look at the soldiers. “Even though many people are living a peaceful life on this planet. But they don’t know that their happiness is because that these soldiers are putting life on the line to defend this planet. No one knows what will happen in the future. But since we are alive, we should enjoy our lives.”
I nodded and turned to look at those soldiers, but suddenly, I saw Tanya coming towards me with a wide smile on her face. She similarly wore the pure white uniform. Many people made the way for her. A look of reverence was clearly visible in their eyes.
My lips curled into a smile while Tanya stood before me. Her watery eyes were fixed on me for a moment before she turned to look at Lily.
“You are missing the adventure, right?”
Lily smiled, “You know me. Even though I retired from the front lines. I always miss those days. I really enjoyed our time in the field. But who would have thought that those vile demons would make me a powerless mortal.”
I could feel many emotions in her voice.
She shook her head and said, “Anyway, there is a chance that I could regain my powers. So wait for me, I will be back,”
Tanya’s brows were arched. “Is it confirmed?”
Lily nodded, “Yes, and if it is a success. I would be assisting Alan in the frontier.”
Tanya was really surprised when she heard her words. Her gaze shifted to me, and sighed, “You are really lucky. You don’t know, but she was one powerful soldier in my unit. I hope that you would take care of her in the future.”
I nodded, “What about you?”
Her brows were arched. “What about me?”
I sighed. “I heard that the situation is not good. You have to be careful.”
She was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, “I am always careful. But now that I have someone in my life. I am not going to lose my life this easily.”
But as soon as she said those words, the uneasiness in my heart grew more. Why am I feeling that something bad going to happen?
My heart started beating faster as I held her hands. “I don’t care about others, but you have to be safe. Do you understand?”
I could see that many of those soldiers stopped in their tracks and stared at me with a heated gaze as if I have done the blasphemy by holding Tanya’s hand.
But, I care less about their thoughts. I am holding the hands of my woman.
Tanya’s gaze was fixed all the while when suddenly she came forward and kissed me on my cheeks. “I know. I would always be careful. “
I heard many gasps. I could also feel that many of these soldiers had dejected expressions on their faces. Even though Tanya was the leader of these units of soldiers. Many people would be having secret thoughts of pursuing her.
I shook my head slightly and nodded. “I understand, but you have to be careful, that’s all.”
But suddenly her expression changed, and she turned around to look at the man coming towards us. My gaze turned to look at the man. He was clearly a middle-aged man, donned in a different blue-colored uniform, and has a frown on his face.
His gaze was fixed on Tanya, and then it shifted to me. I saw that he has a surprised expression on his face when he saw me.
He stood before me, and his eyes shifted to Tanya. “Why don’t you introduce him?”
My brows were furrowed when I heard his words. Why was he using the commanding tone? But Tanya’s words cleared my doubts.
“He is Alan. Candidate of Prime Three.”
And as expected, as soon as this man heard Tanya’s words, he looked at me and smiled. “I know about you. But I didn’t expect that you would arrive here so soon. Anyway, we have a lot of expectations from you.”
I nodded, “Thanks.”
I don’t know about the identity of this man. But from Tanya’s expression, I could see that he was superior to her.
“He is Martin. My commanding officer.”
Oh, this man was the commanding officer? But before I could say anything. He turned around to look at Tanya and said.
“Time to move.”
Tanya’s smile faded as she nodded, “I would be there,”
The man looked at me and said, “We would meet in the future,” and he turned around and left.
Tanya’s gaze was fixed on Martin for a moment before she looked at me and said, “I would move now. Take care of yourself. “
She took one last look at me before she turned around to leave.
I could see that she didn’t want to leave me.
“Missing her?” Lily asked me.
“It’s not like that. I understand her difficulties,”
I sighed and looked at Lily and said. “You are also missing the frontier, right?”
Lily was surprised for a moment before she nodded. “Yes, those days were the most exciting days of my life. But we can’t control our fate. But I am sure that one day, I would be back again.”
Her eyes were fixed on me. “You should also work hard. The frontier is really a nightmare for some. There are many people who died without ever knowing who killed them.”
She sighed and said, “Even though we have powers. But sometimes the enemy is far scarier.”
She shook her head. “Anyway, don’t mind my rambling. We should go,”
“Where are we going?” I asked her.
“You will know,” she said and turned around to leave.
My gaze was fixed on her for a moment before I looked at the soldiers who were busy with their works. But some of them were looking at me with wariness in their eyes, while some of them had smiles on their faces.
I nodded at them and turned around to leave. But suddenly, the building shook slightly and sound reached my ears. I saw that many soldiers rushed towards the door.
But as soon as I reached the door. I was shocked.
