The Fat God System - Chapter 190

Jane and Hugh were both delighted to know that the platoon of soldiers was once a good loyal group to the former queen.

This meant that they had the right mindset when it came to the upcoming war. They needed all the help they could get.

They already had loyalty for Mia, this meant that they would do anything in their power to save her and let her ascend to the throne.

“We are not the only ones who want the royal family to once again ascend the throne,” a soldier said.

The platoon was only one of the many asleep loyal guards of the royal family. They were all waiting for this moment to come, and once they get the news, they will join the revolution.

“What should we do next?” a soldier asked.

Hugh and Jane both looked at each other. Right now, their priority was to save Mia and not let her get killed. Right now, they were all going towards the kingdom, where Mia was currently located.

They had to go and first make sure that the commander and his army do not ever find her. They were also planning to gather more soldiers and comrades that were willing to fight for the royal blood Mia.

“We should be the very first group to look for Mia. We should be ahead of the army,” Hugh said as he looked down as was in deep thought.

“Yes. We also need the others to search for more help,” Jane agreed.

Some of the soldiers presented themselves and took on the task of spreading the word carefully.

“Be careful not to tell it to the wrong people,” Hugh waned.

The soldiers nodded with serious looks as they also understood the risk of the situation. Once the commander gets ahold of this information, he may stop it at all costs.

“The commander will surely try to search for Mia. Can we be part of those groups?” Hugh asked.

The soldiers all looked like they had trouble answering the question.

“That might be hard. Usually, we are only there for backup. Also, we would need the approval of our platoon leader,” a soldier said with hesitation.

Hugh scratched his head. This was truly a difficult task to do. If they cannot get to Mia before the others, then she would be in real trouble.

“We must find another way,” Jane said with worried eyes.

The whole platoon was in agreement. They all wanted Mia to be safe and ascend the throne. However, it was an uphill battle.

The commander was a man with such power, influence, and force that would be hard to overthrow. His influence in the army grew larger and larger through the years.

He had already gathered very loyal followers who would do anything in their power to let their commander take control of the Cheroque kingdom.

These loyal people are all in the upper ranks of the army. Of course, the commander also promised them the title of a noble once he ascends asking.

Those who opposed the commander were dead, or cannot say anything. It was a tight group of loyal followers of the commander.

Those who were from the previous control of the former queen were all put in the same platoon, and that was the current platoon where Hugh and Jane were currently in.

“If we cannot go as a platoon, then maybe it would be best if Jane and I go ourselves,” Hugh said.

He was thinking of all the situations that may happen to them. He needed a valid plan before he went in with his life on the line.

Jane nodded her head. She agreed that sneaking in with two people was easier than sneaking in with a whole platoon.

There was nothing left to do but try and hope that the platoon commander would let them go.

“I’ll ask the platoon leader,” a soldier said as he walked up towards the platoon leader.

The platoon leader was still embarrassed but eh the whole situation earlier, so he was in a bad mood as the soldier caught his attention.

“What is it?!” the platoon leader scowled.

“Platoon leader, we think that we are capable of being in the search team,” the soldier said.

Then, the platoon leader frowned.

“I never told you guys about the search team,” the platoon leader was now suspicious of the soldier who asked him.

Hugh and Jane were also in tension as they watched the platoon leader doubt the soldier. They needed to do something or else the platoon leader will sense that something was wrong.

“We guessed since we also searched for something back in the town,” Hugh replied.

The platoon leader changed his scowl from the soldier towards Hugh. It was rude for Hugh to budge in when the platoon leader was not talking about him.

“What did you say?” the platoon leader said as he sized up Hugh.

Hugh resisted the urge of punching the platoon leader in his face. He needed to act as a soldier, for now, so he put on a straight face.

“Nothing, sir!” Hugh said.

The platoon leader still had a suspicious eye towards Hugh and the soldier. He did not know that something f was wrong, but he was starting to smell that something was wrong.

“You fat bastard, just stay silent next time, okay?” the platoon leader said as he slapped Hugh’s cheeks repeatedly.

Hugh’s head was red as he forced himself not to do anything. He almost slapped the soul out of the platoon leader, but Serena looked at him.

She was trying hard to calm Hugh down, and it seemed to have worked.

“Also you,” the platoon leader said as he pointed towards Serena. “I order you as a platoon leader to visit me in my private quarters.”

The platoon leader no longer had to sneak his evil and lustful intentions towards Serena. His stature in the army was big, and he could get away with anything.

If he was asked by the upper ranks, then he would just say that he was punishing Serena for insubordination.

“Hehehe…,” the platoon leader chuckled as he looked at the curvature of Serena’s body.

Serena already felt sick as she could not stop the platoon leader from ogling at her body. She needed a bath as soon as possible to scrub off that disgusting feeling.

Then, the platoon leader could not hold it in anymore. He raised his hand and reached towards Serena’s upper chest, her breasts.

Just a little touch would not hurt, he thought.

Serena was starting to erupt at this moment also. She was planning to punch the lights out of the platoon leader before he could ever touch her.

*DUUUGG*

Before Serena could even do anything, she saw the platoon leader’s face get folded into several folds as a fist punched him right in the face.

The punch was fast, it was accurate, and it was powerful. The platoon leader’s body flew through the air and landed several meters away from where he was.

Serena was shocked to see this right in front of her face. She was the one who was going to punch the guy, but someone got to the platoon leader first.

When she looked at the one who punched the platoon leader, she realized that it was Hugh.

Hugh could not fold his anger anymore as he punched the platoon leader into unconsciousness. He knew the consequences of this punch, but he had to do it.

The best thing was that he did not regret it. The feeling of his knuckles punching the platoon leader’s cheekbones was the best feeling ever.

“Hugh!” Serena shouted.

Hugh shrugged his head with guilt. With just that one punch, he had ruined their plans.

“Sorry,” Hugh said as he put on an awkward smile.

“You should be!” Serena said as she crossed her hands in her chest. “I was going to do that anyway.”

Hugh would have done it either way. The guy needed a royal beating to teach him manners and common sense.

“Thanks,” Serena whispered with a blush on her cheeks.

Hugh did not hear that last part since he had already walked up to the unconscious body of the platoon leader.

“Well, he’s our cold,” the soldier said as he looked down at the bleeding face of the platoon leader.

There were missing teeth in his jaws, and his nose was broken. The soldiers all gathered around the platoon leader’s face with interest.

“Good punch.”

“Impressive, I’m you hit his most prideful parts.”

“I would have punched him in the chin.”

They were all celebrating the fact that the platoon leader was finally given the beating he deserved. Through their months serving this man, they all wanted to give him a good punch in the face.

However, they could never do that, or else they would get executed for treason. Now, however, they did not mind. They were now all planning to overthrow the commander out of his strong position.
