1. Zwei South Section 4: Faust's Story
48 lines...Yes, I have visual confirmation.
Reporting: Gregor on proximity protection has successfully neutralized the hostiles.
The child was busy communicating with someone else on the line.
She did not forget to diligently observe her surroundings while doing so, of course.
Relaying to Rodion and Heathcliff. Reporting in a situation from proximity protection. Please continue to be on guard for hostile reinforcements.
This is appointed-persons protection. Acknowledged~
Ugh, hey! Don't eat all the donuts, leave some for me!
...If you need extra provisions, you may report the costs as additional expenses.
Ooh! You serious? Gotcha~ Signing off!
…….
Did you just sigh, Faust?
No. Faust merely exhaled more forcefully for a moment.
I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that, it's just... it's been a while since you've shown a genuine reaction to anything.
The other child snickered before producing a notepad.
...There is no need to record something like this, Ishmael.
It's our job to observe and record every event during a territory protection contract, isn't it?
I am not some observation target.
Hey, Don Quixote is on the move.
...Hm.
While the other child scribbled in her notepad, this child breathed warily and began to fiddle with the panel in her hands.
To Sinclair. Have you noticed any suspicious individuals entering the territory?
Uh... That's uh...
Don Quixote is advancing... somewhere.
T-that's, uh, she thought some people were tailing our client, so she said we should follow them.
And I... agree with her. We're the Zwei, our client's shield.
The client has already made contact with the hostiles. They appear to be forces from outside the territory...
Oh, someone's moving in on Don Quixote's position.
...Sinclair, immediately move to Don Quixote's position and provide support. Section 6, follow the plan and focus on neutralizing any and all external forces.
Ah! That fast... Roger that!
...This turned out to be a pretty big operation, huh?
While a joint operation isn't strictly uncommon, it's not quotidian, either.
If sections 4, 5, and 6 are all being deployed at once, it is most likely because there will be a conflict of an equivalent scale.
For example...
Huh, speak of the devil.
Indeed. Such occurrences would warrant it.
What could the two children have seen?
It must be the horde of hostile forces ganging up on the customer, or "client" as they call them.
I have visual confirmation of overwhelming hostile forces converging in the area. Faust, commencing on-the-ground protection.
Understood. Please direct further reports to Ishmael's side.
Disconnecting from the comms, the child threw on the Zwei's coat.
When she arrived, every corner of the alleyway was already filled with enemies.
*Beep*
Are you... from the Zwei?
Correct. We are the shield of our client.
Where the hell are you Zwei bastards even coming from... Mess 'er up!
The child took up her Zweihänder handily, as though it was an extension of her arm...
Faust, moving to protect.
...and muttered impassively before charging forward.
