Chapter 26: A New Problem
"Do you know anything about the sectors?" Instructor Aelia asked as Hael gave a nod.
"Yes. I know, according to you, that Sector Z is a backwater sector where it is an incredibly hot desert, and also the last mission we underwent was in Sector X, where there is probably an ongoing war, and um, that's all I know..." Hael completed as Captain Aelia clapped her forehead.
"It really is a disgrace that there is a place in this world with absolutely no idea of the sector. Then let me enlighten you, kiddo..." Captain Aelia said as Hael also perked his ears up.
This was a chance to get learn about the new world that he was in. A chance he couldn't afford to waste...
"The number of sectors is divided into the number of alphabets, A to Z, and those are also divided into three: Eldritch territory, Human territory, and the Unsafe territory, which is unfit for both races.
The Unsafe territory consists of just 5 sectors, Sector V, W, X, Y, Z. It acts as a war zone between the two races, and sometimes a secret hideout by the Eldritches..."
"Oh, like the one in Sector X?" Hael asked, remembering they had really gone to fight in an Eldritch hideout.
"Yes, exactly." "And with the five places being unsafe, there are how many sectors left, just 21?" Hael asked, drawing a nod of acknowledgement from her.
"Out of those 21, the human territory owns 16 sectors!"
"WHAT!?" Hael exclaimed in shock as he heard those.
"Wait, wait, so if the humans own 16 sectors, then the Eldritch forces only own 5 sectors?" Hael asked in shock as Captain Aelia gave a nod. "Wow. That's basically an area advantage for the humans, isn't it?" Hael asked.
Never would he have guessed that the humans own 16 sectors and the Eldritches only own 5. He had thought since it was a war, they should both own equal and perhaps a minor increase in percentage which would denote the current leading race of this war... "While the humans might truly own 16, it doesn't mean we have any advantages.
"Yeah, I just did, this evening..."
"Well, the higher-ups are super worried about it and are predicting it might just be the new beginning of another massacre like the one in Sector H. So they are sending various Captain Levels Hunters to the scene with their crews for them to gather clues and also apprehend as many Eldritch as possible. I know you're not interested in the reward, so I know that's not an advantage. .
But I will just say this might be a really serious case, based on what the Higher-ups are offering as a reward from the signing up. It's thrice greater than your last dangerous mission in Sector X. So what do you say, Aelia?"
"Sign me up for it..." Captain Aelia immediately replied as Hael furrowed his eyes.
"Well, you have never said no before, and you didn't even hear of the danger level..."
"That doesn't matter. If they are sending other amateurs called captains to the scene, then I think It shouldn't be beyond my level..." Captain Aelia replied with not much change in her expression...
"The Mission will begin just a week from now. So you have a week for rest before starting, see you soon Aelia. And those rewards are still with me, I won't give out your hard work."
"Hey, Jessica, I said..."
"Bye..."
