End of the Long Day (Part-2)

*Splash*

As the body of the guilty Heeat soldier was dumped over the sea, one of the newly arrived officers quickly ran up to the Heeat commander, ready to report on the extent of their rescue.

"Sir! We have managed to save close to three hundred men," He had said with a pleased undertone to his voice as he did not think there would be so many survivors. 

The collapse of the bridge had made it seem like armageddon had arrived and the man had figured no mortal soul should have been capable of surviving that.

The news of the large number of rescued also seemed to come as a pleasant surprise for the Heeat commander, who produced a quick nod of approval at the report and then asked him to continue the good work.

"Commander… should we give chase now?"

However, instead of swiftly turning on his heel and leaving, the officer decided to take a risk and chimed in to ask this, producing a troubled face as he did.
