Enforcers 23 A Boring Mission... Again... And Start Of A Bad Feeling

Hero let out a sigh as he punched the man in the face launching the guy away. "Somehow I thought fighting bandits would be a little bit more fun than this?" He trailed off as he sidestepped a swing from another random bandit punching him in the gut and sending him flying away as well.

"I know right..." Ken said letting out a sigh as she smacked one of the men upside the head with her sheathed weapon. "These scrubs aren't even superhuman... They're just ordinary people running around with guns... I don't even need my Attribute to take them out..." She sighed out.

After joining the Enforcers the group had been... Shall we say a little bit displeased with the results...

As it turns out since they were new recruits they weren't allowed to do anything fun... Instead of getting to run around battling ma.s.sive monsters and having an amazing time they instead did a boring old fetch quest, and had to clean up trash.

A few low levels bandits seemed to get out of hand and stole something they shouldn't have. As new Enforcers, it was their job to go and get that thing back now apparently.

Currently, they were underground in the abandon subway station fighting off the twenty or so bandits in there. The bandits weren't doing too well...

"You guys go..." Jackson said letting out a yawn as he struggled to not fall sleep. "You can do it... I believe in you..." His eyes finally shut after his bordem win out. "Wake up when you're done..."

Jackson wasn't the best teacher they could have gotten... Most new Recruits would love the idea of a Vice-Captain taking it upon themselves to train them, but with Jackson, the man only ever goofed off or fell asleep from how boring and simple the missions were. It was clear he didn't even want to be there anymore. And unfortunately all the other squad six members were currently out on other missions so Jackson was quite literally all they had to go with.

"This is so dumb!" Kitsune announced out in anger as flames exploded off of him slamming several bandits back. "How are we gonna get to improve at all if we are just fighting these weaklings?" He asked, as he let out a sigh.

"I'm sure there is a reason for us doing this..." Irene said calmly as she brought her hand up as ice fired out freezing several bandits in place.

"Of course there's a reason..." Cloud stated as his mist soared out. It became a greenish color as the roof above several bandits melted causing it to fall on them pinning them down. "Its to get us ready for the harder missions..."

"Yeah but..." Hero stated as he threw his arm back. It bounced back like a rubber band slamming his fist straight into the nose of some poor guy. "...This is still just so slow... Anyone of us could do this with our eyes closed. Sorry Cloud..."

"No offense taken."

"I agree with Hero- Oh my G.o.d I can't believe I said that- These missions aren't challenging at all," Ken complained. Her sheathed weapon glowed red for a second as she slammed it down. A wave of wind fired out knocking several bandits into the air. "These guys are literally just fodder? No challenge what so ever?"

"I don't get why these guys are so much weaker?" Hero said as he punched another one square in the jaw. "I mean they are older than us? And they also have Attributes to right?"

"You really know next to nothing?" Kitsune said letting out a sigh as he blasted more of the bandits away with fire. "As you know every human in this world is born with some kind of superpower that we call Attributes. This is something every human being has. It is completely impossible to not have an Attribute just like how it is impossible to have more than one Attribute. The difference between us and these bandits is that they are considered humans while we are considered superhuman's. What makes a superhuman different from a normal human is the level of their Attribute as well as their bodies. A superhuman is born with an Attribute that is far, far stronger than a normal humans Attribute. Not only that but a superhuman since birth is born anywhere from 5-10X stronger, and faster than a normal human. One of the requirements to get into the Enforcers is to have a superhuman body. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to fight even the weakest Bestia Macht... Unfortunately for us though, only around 35% of the population is actually superhuman..."

"I see..." Hero said nodding. " That is kind of neat, and interesting, I guess... Although that thing about a person having only one Att-"

"Will you two shut up!" Ken yelled out in annoyance. "I just wanna hurry up and finish this boring quest... This is like the fifth one we've done this week..."

"Yeah..." Cloud said. "I'll admit I am also starting to get tired of this. I understand why they are making us do this but..."

The doors up above them suddenly burst out as a bigger, tougher, bandit came marching out. "So!" He shouted out. "It seems you have taken good care of my men! Well, now you have to deal with me. Digo the leader of the bandits-"

The sound of five fists slamming into a man's skull echoed out as the bandit leader hit the ground unconscious.

"Huh..." Hero said blinking slightly. "I thought for sure he would be a superhuman..."

"Nah," Kitsune said kicking the downed man. "If he was he wouldn't have surrounded themselves with so many weaklings. Humans, and Superhumans don't go together very well..."

"Wake up!" Ken yelled out bringing her sword down on Jackson's head.

"Oww!" The Vice-Captain screamed out as he sat up rubbing his bruised head. "What the h.e.l.l was that for?"

"We finished the mission..." Ken said pointing a thumb at the downed bandits.

"Good... The leader should have the relic on him..." Jackson said letting out a yawn.

Hero searched through the down bandit leader's pocket as he pulled out a simple golden statue. "This is it right?" He questioned tossing it to Jackson.

"Yep..." The object in question was a simple one-foot long golden statue of a girl. "This is the reason the Oleander Musume hired us for..." Jackson said with another yawn. "Alright. Let's go." He stated.

Thirty minutes later...

The group all collapsed down onto the couches as they all let out annoyed sighs. "I thought this was gonna be fun!" Ken whined slightly.

"Trust me..." Jackson said staring up at the ceiling fan. "It gets better. Right now you guys are just doing E-Cla.s.s Missions..."

"E cla.s.s?" Hero questioned as he c.o.c.ked his head up.

"Yeah," Jackson said nodding. "The missions are ranked in a list of difficulty... The E-cla.s.s missions are extremely basic. Even a normal human with a gun could finish it if they tried hard enough. Next, you have D-Cla.s.s which is still basic missions. After that is C-Cla.s.s. This is the mission that involves at the very least a Bestia Macht. Above that is B-Cla.s.s which only Bronze badge member or higher can do, or a no badge member who is teamed up with at least a silver badge member or higher. After that is Cla.s.s which requires a team of at least Two Silver badge members or one Gold badge member. Then you have Cla.s.s missions which require the Teo Gold badge members. S-Cla.s.s which requires a Captain at the very least, S+ Cla.s.s which requires the first Captain, and SS which is a maximum threat that requires all Enforcers. There is also a Z-Cla.s.s but that is a threat so ma.s.sive that it would require the five nations to team up to even have a slim chance to best it. Thankfully for as long as we have lived, we have never had anything above an S+ Cla.s.s mission, for 1990 ages. Since you guys are new you are required to only do E-Cla.s.s missions for one month until we can move you up... Although usually the threat level of a mission is mostly ignored as that is what it is determined as from a glance. Usually, it can be higher, or lower than previously thought."

"Who gives out these missions?" Hero questioned.

"The missions are handed out by Master Storm," Jackson explained. "Basically you have these villages or just random folks who will have a problem so they go to the Enforcers to fix that problem. They tell them what the problem is and what they want to be done about it. The Enforcers judge how high the threat level should be treated based off of the information they are given. This is one of the reasons the threat level can be highly inaccurate. The higher the threat level the more they will charge for us to complete the mission then the Enforcers that completed the mission get 20% of the profits. The Enforcers are also a governmental organization so usually, they will also give out missions they want us to handle personally!"

"I don't care how these missions work," Ken whined out as she crossed her arms. "Just as long as we can do something fun..."

"I actually agree with Ken, Mr. Storm," Kitsune stated. "You've seen us all fight. You've seen us at the very limit of our power. Surely if there is anyone who knows how strong we are it would be you and Mr. Blight. So why don't we go on a mission suited to our level instead of this baby stuff?"

"These are all tests..." Jackson stated. "These simple missions are to test you and make sure you have a base understanding of how the Enforcers work."

"But why do we need to take these test!" Kitsune questioned."Why not let us experience it for real?"

"The difference between a test, and the real world, is that you can fail the test, but you can't fail in the real world. Failing in the real world means you lost. Best case scenario... It means you died. Worst case scenario, it means you lived and the people you were trying to save died. Even worst-case scenario it means you died and the people you were trying to save died too, and you left your allies feeling like failure because they weren't able to save you, or the civilians." Jackson took a deep breath. "I need to know that you guys can handle a real mission before I push anything. Out there on the field, I might not be able to jump on there and save you. I could be separated from you, or I could have been killed. This is just to show me that you guys know how to fight."

"But you've seen us fight!" Ken cut in.

"No! I've seen you all fail." Jackson stated. His joking nature was gone as he frowned. "Hero, failed at touching Dawson and almost got himself killed trying to tank a punch for Ken, Ken broke one of her arms, and ma.s.sively injured the other one showing off she is reckless from using so much power when she wasn't ready, Cloud showed off that he tries to think of a plan way too much, and can't go with the flow, Kitsune showed off how arrogant he was and a.s.sumed and allowed himself to get caught, and North showed off that he hesitates too much. Each of you has a ma.s.sive problem that I feel could get in the way..." He took a deep breath as he let out a heavy sigh. Everyone else was silent as they all sat down. "Look. We all barely know each other. Its been a week since you were in the Enforcers... Sometimes it's better to take things slow."

"But we won't be able to grow unless we actually do a harder mission..." Hero said. "I mean all you've done is listed our flaws while leaving out the good things we've shown like how Ken, is freakishly strong, Kitsune has some insane control over his fire, Cloud is a genius, and North can create some ma.s.sive, and heavy ice. Besides, we proved we wouldn't give up and we were even able to push Dawson to using his Attribute on us! Even if he did hold back on us that still has to count to something..."

"It's true that Dawson is probably Squad Six's greatest member..." Jackson said trailing off slightly. "I've seen skill inside of each of you... All of you have potential... Some more than others of course..."

"Then let us go on a harder mission!" Ken stated standing up as she pointed at the man. "With that healing gel, we have all been healed back up to 100%! At this point fighting low-level bandits is only making us rustier. We're all border and so are you! So how about we go out and do anything above E-Cla.s.s? Like maybe a C-Cla.s.s?"

Jackson let out a sigh as he reached into his pocket. He pulled out a small metallic brick with a blue screen. on it. The screen lit up slightly as he tossed it to Ken. "This has every available mission that hasn't been claimed yet... You can choose anything from C-Cla.s.s and below... Also... Listen. Whatever you do don't tell Katrina... She would have my head for even considering letting you guys do something so stupid..."

"Alright!" Hero cheered. Ken stared down at the screen as she scrolled through it.

"Most of these are boring..." Ken said still scrolling. "Oh! How about this one." She handed the device back as Jackson looked down.

"An endangered Villiage..." Jackson read. "The Village of Lillies is Endangered by Bestia Macht... Twelve to be in fact. The Village leader has requested some Enforcers to come help him out. A basic low-level mission..." Jackson smiled slightly as he nodded. "Alright... This is the perfect mission to give you guys a real combat test. Probably just a few Bestia Macht that are in the area..."

"At my Village, we had people who guarded it against the Bestia Macht? How come this one doesn't." Irene questioned.

"Who cares?" Ken said throwing her arms behind her head. "The point is we get to do a real mission!" She announced.

"Alright, everyone!" Jackson stated. "Pack your things. Tomorrow we set out!"

Everyone began to quickly leave the room in a hurry but Hero stopped when he noticed Cloud frowning.

"What is it?" Hero questioned curiously when he saw the worried look on Cloud's face.

"Oh! Umm, its nothing..." Cloud stated. "I just have a bad feeling..."
