TFA1 7.19 - Old Memories

In a happy mood Admiral Errez enjoyed his meal. Unfortunately, after that he was then asked to witness the destruction of Buriek Guard.

Through a giant screen with a very clear voice, Admiral Errez watched as Brigadier Flek conducted a check on refugees from Sandhur Region. He couldn’t help but kept cursing as Brigadier Flek casually refused the compromise that was offered to him.

The show then continued with the living hell that descended on Robber Brigade’s element that followed Brigadier Flek, along with the remaining elements that were on standby at their field HQ. Not long after that, the giant screen turned green and displayed explosions after explosions that formed a giant ring and turned into a firestorm that swept across Lagra City.

Then, the turn for the Buriek Rider in Levsait and Raisait arrived, all of which were systematically destroyed until nothing remained.

And while Admiral Errez's jaw was still widely hanging, the next show began. With an extreme accuracy, a fire spear struck one of 2nd Fleet's carrier ships, and then a blinding explosion burst out from inside the carrier's hull.

The carrier ship was 300 meters long, but in an instant only the two ends of the carrier ship was still visible. While the other part turned into shards and small pieces along with all the sailors, Riders, and Cloud Hawks inside it.

When there were no more carrier ships left, the logistics ships became the next target. Hunted and destroyed one by one without being able to put up a fight. Let alone resisting, Admiral Errez was fully convinced that the poor sailors didn't even know what had hit them.

While Admiral Errez still dumbfounded, wondering how humans could have such extraordinary power, Nate casually turned off the projector.

"Admiral Errez, TF Amethyst is willing to enter into a ceasefire if Kingdom of Buriek agrees with our term."

It was easy for Admiral Errez to conclude that TF Amethyst was not an opponent that Kingdom of Buriek could face. Therefore, as soon as he heard TF Amethyst was willing to make a truce, a glimmer of hope instantly sparked in his eyes.

"Ser Nate, this old admiral is ready to listen to TF Amethyst's terms."

Nate immediately smiled before saying, "First, Kingdom of Buriek must pay war compensation to Sandhur Region, in form of iron ore which will be handed over to TF Amethyst.

Second, the remaining iron ore in Kingdom of Buriek can only be sold to Amethyst Merchant and will be paid using various commodities.

Third, Kingdom of Buriek must ensure security and stability in Sandhur Region. All Buriek's elements stationed in Sandhur Region will be under TF Amethyst's command, have support from TF Amethyst, and all operational costs will be borne by Amethyst Merchant."

The three conditions made Admiral Errez gulped down hard. They were no different from the winner's rights. However, Admiral Errez refrained from bargaining, because he was aware that Kingdom of Buriek's response had to be seriously discussed with King Buriek XII and other high-ranking officials.

"Ser Nate, I cannot answer right now and must return to Kingdom of Buriek. So I request a deadline."

Nate nodded slightly before answering, "Kingdom of Buriek has three days, for in five days we estimate Makai Guard's elements will arrive in Sviek and Rivek Region. With Sandhur Region's current state being extremely fragile, their neighbor may devour Sandhur Regions instead of protecting it.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

So, if Kingdom of Buriek has no intention to help us guard Sandhur Region, we will be forced to destroy its fighting capability."

“…”

Nate then tapped his fingers on the table before continuing, “And for your information, if it weren't for our curiosity, why Kingdom of Buriek suddenly canceled the air raid they launched this morning, we would already launch an airstrike to Buriek Royal City, with potential ten times bigger compared to what we sent to Lagra City.”

Gulp!!

Admiral Errez once again swallowed hard before he said nervously, "Ser Nate, it seems I have to return to Kingdom of Buriek immediately."

"Sure, I have also prepared preliminary documents as well as samples of commodities that will facilitate ceasefire talks. Please hand over them to experts from Kingdom of Buriek."

Admiral Errez didn't understand how the documents and samples of the commodities would facilitate the ceasefire talks, but he didn't mind it and firmly nodded.

"Understood, this old admiral will make sure Buriek's experts receive them."

---

The commodities samples that Admiral Errez had to bring were quite a lot. It would take at least 20 carriages to carry them. Fortunately, Nate had provided three trucks and personnel who would take care of the loading and unloading.

Admiral Errez also did not expect that he would be able to bring home the Buriek sailors who were caught when tried to infiltrate TF Amethyst’s port.

After bidding farewell, Admiral Errez then climbed into an SUV specially prepared for him. A moment later, a convoy consisting of 2 M1151 Rippers, 1 SUV, and 3 MTV Cargo moved towards Davy Jones' main gate, and then went straight to south.

While the convoy was undergoing a brief inspection by sentries at main gate, Admiral Errez's gaze accidentally met a middle-aged man and a little girl sitting at the front of an SUV similar to the one he rode. The middle-aged man and the girl were enjoying a kind of cone-shaped food, and occasionally the man would wipe the lips of the little girl.

At first glance, there was nothing strange about the pair, as if they were common father and daughter. But for Admiral Errez, the pair was anything but ordinary. Because he recognized the man was the one who received the visit from Brigadier Flex, and Ser Nate introduced him as Ser Vex, the second highest-ranking officer in TF Amethyst.

While the little girl sitting next to Vex was one of the refugees from Sandhur Region, and if he remembered it correctly, she was a member of Issel Family.

'It seems gods in heaven are helping Sandhur Region.'

Admiral Errez heaving a deep sighs as the SUV he was riding in slowly passed through the main gate.

When she arrived at FOC South 1750, Erlin was super curious about the iron carriage called a car and wanted to ride it. Moreover, the number of cars she saw increased drastically after she arrived at Davy Jones. Erlin truly wanted to ride one of the cars.

Unfortunately, Erien strictly forbade it after knowing that cars were an important means of transportation for military units, and should not be used carelessly.

Fortunately, when Erlin asked Vex about the car, he cheerfully asked her if she wanted to go for a ride. In an instant, Erlin was firmly nodding her little head five times in a row.

At first, Vex only brought Erlin to ride in the backyard of main building. Then, after Nate told him that the talks with guests from Kingdom of Buriek went smoothly, and the alert status was lowered one level, Vex immediately took Erlin to drive around Davy Jones.

After that, the two took a pack of cornetto mini ice cream at chow hall before parking in front of the highway near the main gate.

Vex gently wiped the ice cream on Erlin's lips, while Erlin reflexively lifted her chin.

"Do you like it?"

"Mhm, this ice cream is super yummy."

"Then, after this, we'll head back to chow hall for a second pack."

"Mhm."

Erlin firmly nodded. At the same time, Vex's recalled an old memory when Nicole was three years old. At that time, whenever Vex was at home, every afternoon Nicole would whine for Vex to take her to the highway in front of the base. Then, while enjoying her favorite ice cream, Nicole would watch the cars passing by with sparkling eyes.

'Nicole, I hope you're doing well over there.'

Vex muttered before he once again wiping the ice cream on Erlin's lips.
