Mage squad

After Damian got the info he wanted from Jason he sealed of his magic and then asked the soldiers to the him up and keep him away.

All the other higher ups gathered once again but this time with the help of proper information from Jason the planning became much more easier and the positioning of the troops was taken care off easily.

-------------------

The next day in early in the morning all the soldier who were to go to the front lines started preparing there gear. The Generals were also mentally preparing themselves and making sure that nothing in their strategy was amiss Christopher and Rung discussed amongst themselves and made sure to follow the rules that they set up as they both were commanding soldiers from different kingdoms and were not very familiar with cooperating with each other.

While this was happening Damian on the other hand was with his mage squad explaining them about their positions and the role in the Brigade they would be joing in.

Suddenly one of the mages rose his hand seeing which Damian asked, "What happened Loup? Something wrong with your position? I mean yeah, Rung is an idiot but still he is a great Knight so I think it is not that humiliating for you to being in his personal brigade."

But the mage named Loup shook his head and said, "No, captain it is not like that. It is a great honour for a person of my status to accompany the general itself but....you see...I was hoping that....is it not possible that we can join you in this battle?"

Hearing which Damian got a bit surprised and asked in an amused tone, "Heh, wouldn't that be actually pretty bad for a noble such as yourself to follow under the a previous commoner such as me. I mean I can still remember how you reacted when I first became the head of this mage squad."

Hearing that all the members of the mage squad blushed in embarrasment and Loup hurriedly said, "IT'S NOT EMBARRESSING AT ALL!!! AND I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO APOLOGIZE FOR HOW I ACTED WHEN YOU FIRST CAME IN OUR SQUAD!!! I REALLY FEEL ASHAMED OF HOW I ACTED BACK THEN!!"

Damian just chuckled and said, "I am just joking. No need to take it that seriously. Anyway are you really sure, if prince Felix came to know about it you may be interrogated about which side you are aligning yourself to. You know how 'good' our relationship is right?"

All of them became silent when Damian mentioned about his relationship with prince Felix. They all knew that the prince didn't have a good impression of Damian and could actually kill him if ever gets a chance.

Seeing the reaction Damian sighed and said, "Don't think too much. I know that your families are in support of the first prince for succession to the throne. Me who is against this is technically your enemy here. And I also know why this mage squad, which is full of people belonging to the families supporting the the first prince, was assigned to me. That bastard just want to make sure of my every move right?"

Hearing that all of them flinched a bit and had an uncertain expression bon their faces.

Seeing that Damian have a tired sigh and said, "But I know that you all have changed from how all of you were when we first met. So don't be that down. I know how trustworthy all of you are towards me and that's why I don't want you or your families to suffer from prince Felix's wrath."

All of them got surprised seeing how the previously a commoner of a mage head was looking out for them and became speechless thinking about how the prince that their families were supporting treated them.

Suddenly one of the mages from the group bowed her head and said, "Captain thank you for always looking out for us....even after we acted towards you like that in the past."

Seeing her acting like that the rest of the mages bowed their heads as well and thanked Damian for looking out for them to which Damian just smiled and said that it was not that big of a deal.

He then hit all of them on their head with the sheathed sword and said, "Now, if you all are done with your antics let's get back to the work we have it at hand. Loup, Iris you are with Rung in the front lines as for the work that you have to do-" and then started explaining the duties to the members of the mage squad and how should they be working with the mages from the other squads.

"-finally the healing group should act together and be prepared for evacuation of the injured and healing them, you all will be here back at the camp. And make sure to look out for any intruders who might come to destroy the camp. Now then go to the posts that you all are assigned to."

Damian then got up and started walking away but while walking Loup got up and asked, "By the way Captain, which group are you joining?"

Damian looked back at Loup and the curious mages and with a smirk behind his mask said, "None, I will be working solo against the Dragons." and then walked away leaving behind a surprised group of people who soon sighed and thought at the same time, '....He is crazy as ever.'
