Bab 132: Someone to Talk To

Inside the command center, Richard walked up to Sara's station with a sense of purpose.

"Sara, recall every Volunteer Corps unit currently deployed outside the Blackwatch Oriental Military Camp," he instructed.

 "They need to return here immediately. The mission is canceled."

Sara swiftly donned her headphones, her fingers dancing over the keyboard as she adjusted the frequency.

"All stations," she announced and continued. "This is Blackwatch. All Volunteer Corps personnel currently operating outside the Oriental must abort their missions and return to base without delay. I repeat, all Volunteer Corps outside the Oriental, return immediately. This is a direct order from Eagle Actual."

The room crackled with tension as her message echoed through the communications network. Screens flickered with responses as units acknowledged the order and began the process of disengagement.
