11 "My commission is my ambition, Colonel!" [1]

All the soldiers were surprised when the land they were building on shook again after fighting the goblins who did it first. The soldiers trembled in fear as they found it difficult to stop their first opponent.

They can't even kill the strange creatures. So silence filled the surroundings. No one moved because they all pursed their lips and bit their tongues at the same time.

The Media also that broadcast was filled with fear because they had not yet experienced a situation where they could die. They all sat down and chose to go in the middle and hid behind the soldiers.

Who wouldn't be scared when you see a creature you haven't seen in your whole life. All the soldiers with courage were filled with trepidation. Thinking about their situation.

'This is the first time I've ever fought a creature I don't even know what to call.'

'I would rather fight the tourists than the scary creatures that are in the stories and shows I only see. '

'What are we going to do? We don't know how to fight back! ' All the soldiers were all thinking about how they could survive the goblins. The noise continued, it got louder and louder.

The soldiers were sweating softly. Colonel Ingris also did nothing but look at Lieutent General Reiniel, holding his two hands with his gun on his shoulder. He waited patiently for Reiniel to decide what to do.

Like the others, Colonel Ingris is also nervous about what is happening because this is also his first fight with other creatures beside humans.

When he first saw it it was only as if he had a low position. He couldn't fire his gun, his eyes only widened when he saw it. Still the sound of the footsteps of the Goblins all the soldiers gradually prepared.

They pointed their guns again and used the scopes they had attached after killing the first group of goblins that attacked them. But before the goblins arrived.

All the media and soldiers nervous and scared still looked at the Lieutenant General who was still not giving order and action for them. They saw the Lieutenant but then they saw his reaction on his face. Suddenly they felt more afraid.

The Lieutenant General who suggested rushing alone stood while stunned and glaring eyes. His body stood still as if it were a statue made of stone. He doesn't move or even open his mouth. For the soldiers, this was the first time they had seen their General floating and not speaking. They all suddenly felt the cold suddenly envelop their skins.

They just don't know. The Lieutenant General who they thought was scared of the incident had something else in mind. He rethinks his trajectory while he was not yet a full -fledged soldier and how he earned his medal as a Lieutenant General whom every Filipino military calls "The Beast Lion Soldier." He just wonders why he is here and why he will die like that? Will his comrades still live?

'What am I doing here?' Lieutenant General asked in astonishment as he stared at the ground on which they were standing. But for his vision what he sees is his little self. 'When I was just a kid. I am not like the children in front of me or the children at home having fun with the family and living peacefully. '

'They are lying on a soft bed where you can sleep soundly than you expected. The whole family can eat a meal with a dish and rice. You can study for free and without worries. '

'I am different from children who are full of privelege and good life, have a home and have the ability to get a diploma which can be a fact so that you have a good future.'

'I grew up on the road in malolos city in bulacan. Every day I pick up clutter to sell to junkshots in small amounts, I also beg to have food in the morning, noon and night. But sometimes I only eat at night or sometimes not at all. '

'I've been alone since I was three years old. My parents died because they were affected by the fires in a secluded area near the Barasoain Church, Malolos Bulacan. Their friend just raised me like we were homeless and a beggar. But she also left me. So I was trading to make a living for myself. '

'However, even though I was a trader, it was still not enough to buy a rice and a dish, so what I always knew to eat was a piece of flattened and arranged village for a lunch or dinner.

Sometimes I don't even eat because there are flames that beat me up and take everything I have accumulated from goods and begging. '

'One day, I was only six years old. A band of thieves came upon me.'

"Hey, kid! Give us all your coins that you had collected."The man said with a group of men like him while there was arrogance that could be seen in his smile and eyes as well as in the tone of his speech.

'This is Raven Galaites, a thief leader called Eagle's Slunder. They are the leaders of the whole malolos. All the group and hang out were afraid of them. But why are they attacking me. ' Reiniel felt suspicision at the group's actions.

'But that doesn't matter anymore. It was scary what I was going to do but I had to run. I don't want to lose food and I might even be made a slave like the ones I see in their fort. ' Reiniel moved his left foot to the right side without surrounding Raven's other companions.

"Hey! I'm talking-" Before Raven could speak again. Reiniel quickly ran with all the money he had gotten. He bravely left an Eagle Slunder Leader.

Their eyes widened and they opened their mouths to find out what the boy had done that they had ordered and turned back to be an errand boy. But not Raven. He looked at his companions and glared his eyes to the them.

"What are you looking at, idiots? Chase after him, idiots!" When they heard Raven they suddenly ran and chased Reiniel.

"Those are worthless!" Raven shouted even more at them. And he followed the run. Raven's companions are confused because they can no longer see the child. Because of the number of people, they could not see it.

"Where is the boy over there ?!" One guy said in the group and clasped his arms.

"It just disappeared suddenly." Another man answers while looking around, either right or left. They all looked at each other and were nervous at the same time when they heard Raven's voice approaching them again.

"Raven ..." They said to each other softly as they watched Raven running very fast. They tried to run but they were still overtaken by Raven and they suddenly shivered and sweated their foreheads in nervousness.

"Don't you say that, a child passed you by?" Raven asked his companion as it had a smile that was obviously angry and annoyed formed in his eyes. And his hand was already clenched.

"You really don't matter!" Raven shouted loudly at them. And suddenly he punched his companions.

"It's just a simple order, and you haven't done yet?! You're embarrassing the name of our thief, you worthless people!" It adds more. But all of a sudden a man pointed at Raven's back

"Boss, that's the boy! "When Raven heard. He suddenly turned around and saw the boy running where Reiniel started running.

"What are you looking at? Will you let him escape on us again?" Raven asked as he yelled at his companions. They all ran quickly, including Raven. He ran first again because of his speed and almost caught Reiniel but ...

"Have they seen me yet?" Keizer asked himself to turn around and he saw that the thieves were chasing him again. Reiniel ran again without hesitation even though he was tired from the first run so that Raven and his thief would not catch him.

He entered the gate and parking lot straight to the church.

***

"That kid's so fast!" Even Raven who ran the fastest in his group didn't catch up with Reiniel. But he kept running.

There was no bodyguard guarding the Church Gate so Reiniel, Raven and his troops could easily enter.

"Ha ... Ha ... Keizer gasped as he continued to run and entered the left small door of the church.

I turned to him a lot but nothing stopped him. He went to the exit in the middle of the exit and went to the barbershops. And after he got out he didn't think he could run into a man who shouldn't be moved or resisted.

The Thief Leader of The Eagle Slunder, Kairen Madrido, is a most dangerous man with a name in the field of industry.

He was a former senator but he stepped down to avoid political unrest. "Oh ... look at this young man, he is so small that I can even kill it with a finger." The man sais while smirking and looking with Reiniel with a suspicious and murderous stare.

"I really mess up!"
