Heavenly Dao Child 306 Duehiri part-1

Ryuu let out a deep breath as white smoke was released from his mouth, he was wearing only shorts showcasing his well sculpted body something he knew even the most handsomest man in his old world would see their organs to gain even the tenth of what his body was, he knew it and was damned proud of it. The dragon tattoo on his back formed all those years ago when he first started to cultivate was exposed to the world for everyone to see.

A knock on his door had indicated the arrival of a messenger as such he quickly put a robe on himself as he went to open the door, he knew what effect he had on female and some male as such it would not be wise for him to open his door bare-chested like that, as he opened the door he was greeted by a messenger who spoke to him in a reverent tone as he stammered out, "Go-go-good Morning Captain, the M-M-Major has asked for you to jo-jo-join the briefing room within an hour.", as the person spoke Ryuu noticed that his eyes glazed over slightly.

Ryuu nodded at that as he spoke, "Thank you for the message now you may return to your duties.", as he spoke he frowned inwardly at that, 'Tch, another weak willed idiot I hate them.'

Ryuu sighed at that, it had been a couple of decades since he had joined the army and has moved from just a Second Lieutenant to Captain he had some of the best moments as well as worst moments in his life but the experience was something he would never give up for anything in this world.

As he got dressed in his armor his eyes wondered to his right arm near his shoulder, a mark of a Phoenix with sword and spear in each of it talons were shown, with the word 139th tattooed under it 'Till Death', he was a proud member of the 139th battalion and earned his mark when he was allowed to join the real group not the reserve group who often are called 'Fake Decoys' behind their back.

As Ryuu went towards the briefing room, he came across his fellow colleague 'Siri', one of his closest friends as he spoke, "Yo Siri wassup?"

Siri gave him a glare as she spoke, "We are on duty Captain Ryuu act as such."

Ryuu showed her his incredible maturity by showing her his tongue causing her to grumble even further, as another person let out a loud boisterous laugh as he spoke, "Siri you should learn to enjoy the little things instead of always being angry for no reason whatsoever."

Siri huffed at that as Ryuu spoke with a small smile, "So how is your family doing Ryan?"

The person in question was in cloud nine as he spoke, "Oh you could not believe I now have twins as my grandchildren, they are so adorable and…..", as he went on in tirade over his grandchildren, Ryuu gave at talisman to Siri as both of them activated it preventing any words to be heard from their colleague thus saving their ear drums to be destroyed by a hyper Grandpa boasts about being a grandfather.

The trio entered the along with the giddy Ryan with a polite knock, as they went inside they each took a seat, well Siri and Ryuu did where as Ryan was busying regaling in the tales of his adorable grandchildren to anyone who had the misfortune to get caught in his crosshair.

As they sat there waiting for their superiors to enter Ryuu spoke to his friend Siri, "So how did your Grandson's wedding go? And I want to apologize for failing to honor the invitation you gave me but unfortunately I was required in different place due to military duties."

Siri gave a small smile as she spoke, "No need to apologize I understand, I have heard about it the matter was extremely urgent so it cannot be helped, but you do not need to send such an expensive gift Ryuu."

Ryuu simply smiled at that as he spoke, "Nonsense, you are my friend that makes your grandson kind of like my own grandchild so it is within my rights to spoil him.", as he spoke Ryuu inwardly cringed here he was only 60 years of age speaking with a woman who is over Hundred Thousand years of age and calling her grandson who is older than him as his, yup it was so weird why couldn't he simply grow like a proper cultivator should instead of jumping through cultivations stages like that.

They did not have to wait for a long time as Cezary along with a couple of higher ranking officers along with their commander Frank as they entered the room the rest stood up, and only took seat when their superiors ordered them to, as they sat Frank spoke in a stern tone, "A few weeks ago Captain Ryuu was dispatched on an emergency mission, where he faced the invading black dragon army and managed to thwart their invasion congratulations."

Ryuu simply gave a short bow at that as Frank kept on speaking, "The black Dragon army becoming more and more ruthless not to mention the fact that they have increased the attacks as of late, while we have been successful in many times but alas we are being bested in more than one battlefield, yesterday we received a terrible, terrible news my fellow soldiers.", He took a deep breath before he spoke in a somber tone, "As of now the 283rd Battalion is no more that have been annihilated in battle."

At that the entire room was stunned into silence before it descended into chaos which was stopped by a loud thunderous clap by a stern looking woman, who spoke in a rather reproachful tone, "Silent you are Army Officers act as one, I understand that yesterday's event was tragic and I know many of you are upset but losing your temper and acting like children would not help you, we have to discern how and why the battalion felt and it has been decided that 139th and 201st will conduct the investigation as such…."

Their meeting was stopped as a person hurriedly knocked into the room and entered the room with panic look on his face, upon entering he was meet with glare of many of the higher up as one of the spoke with a glare, "This is very important meting speak quickly the reason for disrupting us."

The person gulped as he spoke, "Excuse me Madams and Sirs, but an emergency message was send from one of our allies that their home world has been invaded by Black Dragon Army, under the command of Halphir the Scholar."

The woman looked at the man in question and spoke in a stern tone, "Leave.", as the messenger left the woman turned towards Cezary as she spoke, "You get a team ready for the investigation, and I will personally deal with Halphir and I am commandeering part of your unit."

Cezary simply spoke with a small nod, "As you wish Colonel Elyrin."

Colonel Elyrin turned towards Ryuu as she spoke in a commanding tone, "Captain Ryuu gather your men and we will be leaving in 5 minutes.", with that she stood up and left with Ryuu hot on her heels.

As he left he simply gave a small bow and exchanged a few nods with his fellow members of the 139th battalion as they had a slight worrying look on their faces.

It did not take long for Ryuu to gather the over 2000 strong troops under his command as he promptly boarded the Flying Troop Carrier where Colonel Elyrin was waiting for him as he entered the command room Elyrin spoke without looking up from the map as she spoke, "Good you are diligent. Halphir is a talented Array master as such please be wary of him Ryuu."
