The Martial Unity

While it was going to take some time for the research to end, what wasn't going to take too much time was their deployment.

Soon enough, both Rui and Kane received stand-by summons from the department of defense. The two of them quickly scurried over to the edge of the town and quickly followed through with their instructions.

Both of them were wearing masks, of course. Rui had no intention of letting hostilities take an image of his appearance.

If it spread around, then it could potentially land in Chairman Deacon's hands, and he would recognize Rui in a heartbeat, regardless of the color of his hair.

Rui was relying on the poor communication facilities across the continent to get away with such a simple disguise. The further away they got from the Shionel Dungeon, the more Rui would relax, but for now, his identity needed to be protected.

The two of them waited in a dispatch facility with a bunch of other Martial Squires that were loosely part of the same squad. The Martial Artists arranged themselves in the manner of their range, with the long-range Martial Squires taking a place at the back of the squad and the close-range Martial Squires serving as the vanguard of the squad.

Kane and Rui took a place in the vanguard, The former because he was a close-range Martial Artist, and the latter because he wanted to stick with Kane.

The squad was on immediate stand-by for whenever the alarm for an incoming attack was sounded.

And it wasn't long before it happened.
