The Author's POV

—TSSSSS!

The static sound of the radio transmitter echoed throughout the area.

Bringing the radio transmitter towards my mouth, in a deep voice, I said.

"This is unit 19 speaking. Do you copy?"

[...Unit 19? Copied, what's the situation?]

After a couple of seconds, someone responded.

"We've captured the target. I repeat we've captured the target"

[You've captured the target?]

"Roger."

[Understood. I've relayed the information to units 8,13,21,and 29. They are on their way, please be patient.]

"Copy that. How long till they arrive?"

[Given their location, around five minutes.]

"Understood, I'll be waiting."

—TSSSSS!

"Five minutes..."

Turning the radio transmitter off and turning around, my eyes paused on the four individuals on the ground. They were 19th unit members.

Each of them, although passed out, were still alive. Even though they were fairly skilled, it didn't take long for me to knock them out.

Just their captain alone didn't take much, let alone them who were far below him in strength.

Unlike their captain, I kept them alive. There was a reason for this.

"...6mg, this should be enough."

Taking out a couple of syringes from my dimensional space, carefully measuring the dosages on each of them, I removed any distracting thoughts inside of my mind.

'From what I remember, 2mg is enough to render my mind numb, whilst 10mg is enough to knock me out completely.'

The syringes that I was currently holding were things that I had gotten from Joseph's dimensional space after I killed him.

They were all filled with the serum that I had been injected with for the past eight months. It was now time I used it on someone else.

'I hope this works.'

Since I was pressed for time, I couldn't care less about being delicate and careful. Stabbing one of the guards in the shoulder, I quickly injected him with a dosage of the serum.

—Squeq!

A squeaking sound came out from the syringe.

"huuuk!"

The moment I pushed the serum into the guard's body, the guard's eyes shot wide open. For a brief moment, his eyes turned white. His body then started convulsing madly.

'Shit, did I put too much?'

Grabbing the guard by the shoulders, I pressed him to the ground.

"Guuuuahh"

'Shit, please work.'
