Nathan bombarded a series of questions. “Where is she now? Is she safe? Who are the kidnappers? Who ordered them?”
Sage answered them in an orderly manner. “She's currently unharmed in White Lily Funeral Palor located on the outskirts of Brimmopolis. Our men are onsite, waiting for your order for extraction. The kidnappers belong to Death Reaper, an assassin organization. We also found out that Ms. Shae had spent a fortune to hire them.”
Nathan bellowed menacingly, “It's her again! She must really be tired of living!
“Hear my orders. Get our men to lie low for now, as long as Penny's unharmed. Alerting them of our presence will only put her in danger. Also, get the Felidae Battalion to head out at once to
White Lily Funeral Parlor.” “Yes, Sir!”
There was a moment of silence before Sage murmured, “Sir, are you coming along on this rescue mission;"
“That will take too long. Arrange for one of our latest choppers. I'll fly there.”
Sage's eyes widened to the size of saucers. / know Chief is eager to save his wife, but isn't it reckless of him to fly there on his own?
“Sir... pardon me for saying this, but that may be a bit too reckless. Why don't I send one of our airborne troops there first. They can ensure Ms. Smith's safety while you head over with the battalion.”
“This concerns the safety of my wife. Do as I say.
I'm not negotiating here.”
Sage had no choice but to follow his orders.
Nathan found his phoenix military coat and Leviathan mask a nuisance to his movement.
Before boarding the helicopter, he changed into a set of regular military uniform and flew to White Lily Funeral Palor with haste.
On land, numerous military trucks were seen driving out of headquarters at full speed.
On the outskirts of Brimmopolis, various caskets occupied the spacious interior of White Lily Funeral Parlor.
