The “Supplies”

Shye allowed the old man to calm down for a few hours, choosing to train with his elites for a while before meeting up with Reginald, another one of his captains who had just returned from an important mission.

As Alpha Four and a trusted aide of the old man, Reginald had been sent to scout all ten capitals in recent months. 

His task was to take note of the guards' behavior, the timing of their duty shifts, the time of day the WAA Headquarters sent out their agents, and how quickly most of the agents completed their tasks.

It was an enormous undertaking.

However, it was crucial to the success of the unsealing operation. 

If they wanted to strike when the opposing side was at its weakest and most unprepared, this reconnaissance was essential.

After talking to Reginald for a good while, Shye went to find Sanada.

He wanted to discuss the issue of the "shortage of supplies."
