Even though they relented, it did not mean that they were wholeheartedly on board with the arrangement.
The God of War was indeed impressive on the battlefield and had managed to win countless battles.
But this time it was different. They were not on a battlefield!
The escort team consisted of sixteen people, and Levi would add one more count to the team, making it seventeen.
The squad members knew for sure that their opponents and themselves consisted of skilled fighters, and they were
positive that the fight would be over in a blink of an eye.
Is it really necessary for him to command us then? It’s not like we’re an army comprising of hundreds and
thousands of soldiers!
They could not help but think that Levi’s presence was going to be a burden to them.
What was more, the man was actually a cripple who was wheelchair-bound.
After the leader for the Dragonites exited, the de facto leader for the escort mission and the leader of the Dragon
squad, Drakon, voiced out, “God of War, I have to admit that I once revered you, but everyone knows that now
you’re just a cripple. How are you going to ensure that the escort mission is a success then?”
The leader of the Phoenix squad chided, “Yes, we’re going to end up watching your back. Your presence will only
serve to distract us!”

“Besides, do they have no confidence in our abilities? Even though we seldom go on missions like these, have we
ever failed them?”
“That’s right, we’ve gone on hundreds of missions for over a decade, and never once have we failed!”
The others started to protest as well.
They would not have said a thing if Levi was perfectly healthy.
However, it was obvious that the top guns of the Dragonites did not have full confidence in the squads for them to
assign a cripple to watch over them.
The leader of the Wolf squad, Salem, sneered, “You have the capability to maximize our potential? Do you even
know the hierarchy system of the four squads, much less how our squads function?”
Levi shook his head.
He was merely being truthful as he had no inkling as to how the Dragonites worked.
Of course, given that the Dragonites was a secretive organization, to begin with.
“You’d better listen up. The Dragon squad is in charge of overseeing the full execution of any mission we undertake,
while the Phoenix squad is in charge of gathering intel to ensure the success of the missions; the Wolf squad is in
charge of assassination; the Tiger squad for defense! If you’re clueless about this, how can you even hope to lead
us to succeed in this mission?”
The others were clearly disdained at Levi’s ignorance.
They did not think that Levi would bring any value to their team, and could even potentially burden them.
In an attempt to lighten the tense atmosphere, Lenix from the Phoenix squad added, “All right, since the Dragonites
had appointed God of War to be our leader, they must have their reasons for doing so. Let’s set off without further
ado. We risk getting exposed any second we squander our time here.”
Drakon, Phenix, and the others sighed. “It seems like we have no other choice.”
“But I have to make something very clear, if anything should happen to that cripple, I will not put myself at risk to
help him!”
“Neither will I. I won’t let him burden me.”
“I will not even spare him a glance if he’s dead along the way.”
They each voiced out their determination for not letting Levi stand in their way to complete the mission.
“You’d better follow me.”
Lenix looked impassive, but she still sounded quite amicable compared to the others because she considered Levi
to be her idol.
She would have paid no heed if it were someone else.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Sure.” Levi nodded his head.
“On my command! The Wolf squad is in charge of clearing the roads ahead while the Tiger squad is in charge of
backend defense. The other two squads shall escort the thing together with me! This mission will be termed
Defense of the Dragon, and we must succeed!”
After Drakon was done commanding, the team set off right away.
It was not safe to take the sea nor air routes.
Hence, the squads decided that the land route would be their safest bet.
Levi and Lenix were in middle of the convoy.
The box was in their plain sight.
It meant that Levi and the box required the same level of protection.
After getting into the car, Levi decided to take a nap.
He was actually missing Forlevia.
It had been a few days since he last saw her.
Phenix glared at the man.
“Lenix, I know that you consider this man your idol, but look at him now. Does he look like your role model right
now?” Phenix could not help but grumble.
