Tominus let out a long breath. Cold air blew out from between his lips. "Alright."
Aldes pressed his index finger and thumb hard into the skin of his arm. He pinched himself until the color of his skin turned a bruised blue. The sharp stinging pain pulled his consciousness back from panic. He regulated his breathing rhythm inhaling the cold air of the room and exhaling it slowly. His heartbeat stabilized again. He straightened his back standing calmly and stared straight ahead.
Klaus, Illfa, and Aldes immediately stepped forward. They formed a single line facing straight toward Tominus at the end of the endless white room.
"Stop the nonsense and formal greetings. I will get straight to the point," Tominus said.
"As you know our kingdom is now forging a military alliance with them." Tominus raised his chin slightly pointing toward the man beside him.
Villavia and the pink haired dragon girl bowed their bodies simultaneously paying their respects.
"The captain of your division should have already told you the reason," Tominus continued.
Illfa glared sharply at Klaus's side profile. She shook her head slowly. Klaus averted his gaze to the white floor avoiding Illfa's eyes.
Tominus shifted his gaze staring at the row of Guardians standing silently in the lower area.
"Division two Guardian main force Illfa."
Illfa took one step forward. She bowed her body ninety degrees then stood back up with a firm chest posture.
"Division zero secret guard and head library keeper Leafa."
Leafa walked forward with smooth steps. The tips of her shoes produced no tapping sound on the floor. She stopped her steps beside Illfa smiled faintly and bowed her head.
"Division zero head of intelligence defense agency Vival."
The tall postured man stepped forward. He wore a plain black mask with a single bright blue dot glowing in the middle of his mask. He stood silently bringing his feet together.
"Captain of division one royal Guardian Mila."
A woman stepped forward. Her straight black hair fell covering her back. Her pair of blue eyes stared sharply forward. She smiled very faintly then bowed her body paying respect to Tominus.
"Vice captain of division two Guardian Amor."
A man walked forward. He had messy short red hair and a pair of pitch black eyes. His face displayed no expression whatsoever. He stopped walking then bowed his body stiffly.
"Aldes."
Aldes's shoulders jerked slightly. He fell silent for two seconds processing the calling sound. He then advanced his steps aligning himself with the five other people in front of him and bowed his head.
Tominus turned his head toward Villavia. "They are the strongest of the strongest troops out of all that I have."
Tominus shifted his eyeballs staring at Aldes for a moment. "Certainly with one exception."
"Any objections?" asked Tominus staring at Villavia.
Villavia shook his head slowly. "I trust in you Your Majesty."
Villavia then bowed his body very deeply alongside the dragon girl beside him. "We as representatives of the dragon kingdom express our deepest gratitude."
Tominus turned his neck back looking straight ahead. He stared at the uncalled Guardian group in the back row. "You will temporarily replace their positions in the capital city. I have handed over your task list to Klaus."
"Yes!" answered the remaining Guardians in unison.
Klaus nodded his head confirming the order.
Tominus snapped his fingers.
*Click.*
Instantly all the unselected Guardians including Klaus vanished.
Tominus lowered his gaze staring at the six chosen people in front of him. "You will help win the civil war in the Dragon Kingdom. Currently the par"
Tominus stopped his words. He shut his mouth tightly.
He cleared his throat. His tone of voice changed becoming flatter and colder.
"Your mission is to infiltrate the Husa clan and kill all members of that clan."
"Villavia will be given you second identity."
"Do not let this mission leak."
"Do not disgrace the name of the human race."
"If you die or fail.. we will deny you are a part of the kingdom."
"Your names will be erased from the human kingdom."
Tominus leaned his back against the black chair. "And I will step down from the throne as king then kill Villavia."
