Expedition

"Lev, I wonder how he's doing right now... is he still alive? No, for sure he's still alive. Back then he disappeared without a trace so either he escaped, or he was taken captive. I know Lev well enough to know that he won't die that easily. There's no way he'd die that easily." Assistant Captain Benedict muttered to himself. He couldn't tell whether it was because of the new environment, or maybe it was because of the fact that they were undergoing an expedition right at that moment. In any case, his mind suddenly wandered towards the thought of his best friend and childhood friend, Pietrus Lev, and this caused him to mutter to himself.

"Sir, did you say something?" One of Benedict's subordinates asked as she looked at Benedict concernedly. "Do you want us to enlarge our reconnaissance area?"
