Adopted Soldier
/ Adopted Soldier 323 Seventy Percen
Richter who received the message didn't really like the idea of the Executioner going all out on some small fry. The whole reason he was making the Executioner always hold back was for training purposes. When he revived the Executioner he immediately noticed that he was weaker than before, so to regain his former strength he set some restrictions for the Executioner to retrain his body and techniques.
One of the restrictions placed on him was that he could only use half of his strength at all times. Another restriction was the weapon he could use which was limited to the scythe and knives. Aside from those two weapons the Executioner couldn't use any other weapons, especially a gun, even though he was most proficient in using that. Richter had placed other restrictions but those two were the most important.
Still, even with those restrictions in place, the Executioner was stronger than most. The only people that could match him one on one in the Shadow Mercenaries, were of course Richter and the real Hektor.
When Richter saw that the Executioner was finally getting back into his top form, he was excited. Almost as excited as he was when he saw Alex was finally nearing the stage of becoming the perfect Greyhound. Now that the Executioner was so near to becoming stronger than he was before, Richter didn't really like him to release any of the restrictions.
Still, Richter also needed Oliver to be brought back alive for the reunion he had plan for his grandson. He didn't really care about the other traitors, since they don't really amount to anything in his eyes, and he could always replace them.
After a few minutes of thought Richter replied to the Executioner's message.
"You can use seventy percent of you strength, and the weighted cloak that your wearing you can remove it."
When the Executioner read Richter's reply he immediately removed the cloak he was wearing. The moment it fell onto the ground it made a heavy thud sound. The cloak he was wearing was one of the restrictions placed on him, as it had the same weight as the Executioner himself.
After the Executioner removed the cloak he felt extremely light. He started jumping up and down to get a feel of the weight, since it's been years when he last had no cloak on. Richter didn't allow him to remove the cloak he was even forced to bathe with it. Which was another difficulty that he had to figure out.
...
When the Executioner got a better feel of his body and was about to give chase he received another message from Richter.
"Now that I have allowed you to remove two of your restrictions, I no longer expect you to kill Raphael and Joseph. You should bring them back to base, for some reeducation. I have a lot of things I want to try out."
The Executioner replied with one word, "Affirmative." Once he was done replying to Richter the Executioner went into a four point start position. He then bursted forward making a crack on the ground where he stood. The speed he was moving while running and jumping from building to building made him look like a human bullet.
...
While he was fighting Kris, the Executioner was able to keep his attention on both Kris and the fading figures of Oliver and the others. So he was able to see where the three were running towards before he lost sight of them. He just needed to guess which direction they would head to. The amount of time they had to distance themselves from the Executioner was only seven minutes tops, which means that they couldn't have gone far.
Also they must be thinking of fighting in an open space to maximize their advantage in numbers. In the direction they escaped towards there was only one place that fit all the requirements. Now that he had a direction in mind the Executioner sped up. After a few minutes of running he finally saw the backs of the three that fled.
It would seem that they were about to reach their destination as the rice field could be seen. The Executioner that could no longer kill Joseph and Raphael, couldn't just finish them off by throwing the poison daggers he had at hand. If he threw them now, with the element of surprise he should have been able to instantly kill one of them.
...
So instead of doing that, he just overtook them. When Oliver and the others saw the Executioner passed by them, they finally stopped running. At this point they didn't really mind stopping since they finally reached the destination they wanted to reach.
When the three of them stopped running, they finally noticed that Kris was no longer with them. They didn't even need to ask since the three of them could already guess what happened to Kris. The three of them then took out their weapons and surrounded the Executioner who allowed them to get into position.
Seeing how relaxed the Executioner was than before, made the three even more wary. Aside from noticing that Kris was no longer with them, they also noticed that the Executioner was no longer wearing his hooded cloak, that exposed his very toned body which was wearing the same uniform as them. They also noticed that the Executioner was no longer in a hurry as he didn't immediately attacked them. Which meant that the Executioner was no longer messing around.
When the three got into position, while the atmosphere was getting even more tense the Executioner spoke.
"Rejoice I have been ordered to no longer kill you and instead simply capture you three. That is an order I have never received, except for now. So forgive me if I show you my incompetence."
Even while surrounded and all the guns pointed at him the Executioner remained ever calm. Since to him at his current state, the retaliation of the three was simply an opportunity to finally let loose a bit.
