บท 34: Pitiful Tears

[Donald's Perspective]

When Armstrong took his men back first, I contacted Elliot and asked him about our assault team. One of the members of the team had extreme perception. His senses were extremely sharp. I needed him to confirm the direction of the enemy.

However, Elliot brought bad news. He said that the assault team would not arrive tonight. It would be tomorrow morning at the earliest.

I sighed. I had no choice.

I called Elliot back first. He looked hesitant, as if he had something to tell me.

"What is it?" I asked.

"I just heard that Angel came along," Elliot stammered.

"What?!" I frowned. "Why would she come along? Let her go back. That's an order."

Angel was Elliot's cousin and my ex-girlfriend. To be precise, we only spent a short time together, but I didn't think we were suitable for each other. We broke up quickly and didn't acknowledge our relationship to the public.
