An Extra’s POV

The opening address didn't take too long already, as all the soldiers had already been briefed prior to the day of the operation.

The entire operation could be summarized into two essential elements: the Day and Night.

The Day Operation was a more broad search, disguised as some kind of super patrol. As for the night search, it would be a lot more aggressive.

The goal was to utilize the day patrol as an excuse to execute a more thorough investigation in the night due to a reason they would cook up.

By patrolling and searching in the morning, soldiers would take up strategic positions around the city, and they would also properly cover all the grounds that made up important checkpoints.

Once that was established, a more intense approach could be carried out.

Above all else, the goal of such a roundabout strategy was to ensure that they didn't tip off the enemies during their search.

Or, at least, ensure that it was too late for the criminals to run and hide once they figured out what was happening.

This was the essence of the Full Sweep Operation.

"Looks like you can take things from here. I'll be on my way now."

Ralyks began to step away from Conrad, who was about to join the soldiers in starting the operation.

"As promised, I'll investigate things with Kara on my end."

"Ah, yes! I understand." Conrad replied with enthusiasm.

Ralyks had never failed them before, so he had no doubt in the man's abilities.

"How is she, by the way? Kara Verte, I mean. Does she still appear suspicious to you?"

In response to this, Ralyks shook his head.

"I don't trust her. However, she isn't suspicious, so there's no need to worry. Just carry out your operation, and I'll carry out mine."

With this agreement in place, Conrad and Ralyks shook hands once more before the Councilor jogged to meet up with the troops while Ralyks opened a portal and vanished from sight.

Not too long after, the Operation on the Merchant City began.
