Chapter 194 - Hopes Dashed

"You've gotta be kidding me...seriously, this is a complete waste of time," I muttered to myself irritably, as I leaned my head against the window by the bus seat I was slumped in. 

Yesterday, about an hour after we left the Academy, we finally received the details on today's Mission...and I was decidedly unhappy about it, to put it lightly. Basically, the requirement of this Mission was to protect a group of six people...some rich guy and his harem of five wives. 

Apparently, he's the heir to a successful business in the South Quadrant, and as a result of his immense wealth, managed to attract five woman willing to marry him. I looked into him after we received the Mission details, and he seems like kind of a scumbag, at least on paper.
