Heated Debate at the Meeting

As the new school year approached, Ender, Daleks, and the rest departed from Defense Line 458, taking Ron and Sonia back to Planet Alpha.

Tuss was now capable of leading troops independently, delegating patrol duties to his subordinates. His daily tasks were focused on training his soldiers and finding metal ores to feed Yuri.

Yuri's belly was slightly rounded, her symptoms of morning sickness had disappeared. But Tuss was still worried, and insisted on bringing her two warehouse's worth of metal ores every day.

With the savings in his account constantly increasing, Tuss purchased a batch of mechas from the military. He was a step closer to providing each soldier under his and Yuri's command with a mecha.

Upon learning that Tuss was hunting insectoids outside the defense line daily and mining, the soldiers requested to join him.

Seeing his enthusiastic soldiers, Tuss smirked and said, "If you can withstand five moves from me, I'll take you with me."
