Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Rescue (2)

A day had passed since then, and Grace and all the Unit Alpha Task Force members gathered within the range. Grace then beckoned Abby and Naida and asked, "What happened with the backup request?"

"Captain Trarzaoreth is willing to lend some of her troops to aid us. But for the others, they said they were preoccupied," Abby said with a solemn expression.

"*Sigh* Although a bit more would've helped better, at least with some help, we could reduce the number of casualties a bit. Estimated time of their arrival?"

"They said ten minutes before our attack."

"Hmm, that's quite a long time. But it's alright. Natalie, Lucia, Irene!" Grace said while ordering for the three to come closer.

The three immediately obliged and approached with a quick pace. Grace then asked, "What's the news about the investigation?"

"Your suspicions were correct. About half of them are supernaturals who are probably associated with Fallen. The rest are regular people."
