Chapter 527 - 'Fatal Mistake'
Ainsley suggested sending a scout team as she calculated the distance between her current hideout and the valley entrance.
’Hmmmm...this distance...is not good for my radar ability.’
She couldn’t make a complete layout of the valley using her radar at this distance. At most, she could only make a map of the front area.
From what she knew, the front area belonged to the family affiliated with the 7 greatest families. The one she wanted to snatch was located at the very back...
The scout team was really necessary.
"Becca, El, can you pick five to ten members to be a scout team?" Ainsley looked back and contacted the two women through her Airpods.
At the same time, Elliana and Becca had just dismounted their mounts and were currently creeping closer to Ainsley’s place.
Becca was the first to answer. "Roger, boss. We will send assassin-type members."
Elliana didn’t react that fast, but she also gave a word.
"...got...it."
The two then turned back to the troops and started to select 10 members that would be suitable as a scout team.
After they’re done, the two of them bring the 10 people to Ainsley.
"These are the members we choose, boss." Becca pointed at the ten nervous-looking members in front of her.
Looking at the youngsters who were seriously nervous and didn’t look confident, Ainsley furrowed her eyebrows.
She suddenly remembered one crucial thing...
And that was about the new recruits.
Some of them didn’t have first-hand experience in real-life battles!
Especially something as big as now.
Ainsley slapped her forehead and sighed.
These people are the elites...they should be talented, but they do lack experience. This might be their first time in a scout team and their first time going to a territorial war too.
Ainsley’s old mafia members had perished, and the rest were still dealing with war trauma from the Aretha Family invasion back then.
Thus, all she got now was the new recruits, and they didn’t seem trained at all!
They did do some missions such as guarding the branch mansion, doing this business and that...but all of them were just small battles.
To be in quite a large battle like now, they’re still newbies, right?
When Ainsley peeked at the youngsters’ faces, she found out that some looked slightly terrified.
...are they afraid of death?
Ainsley’s heart started to throb for some reason. At that moment, the baby realised that she had been too rash.
’Why didn’t I train the new recruits in real-life battle first before assigning them this kind of important battle? I was so impatient that I overlooked such an important thing...’
Ainsley felt like she already failed her position as the family head. Lately, she kept making more mistakes, and no one around her reminded her or noticed it.
Why didn’t they tell her? Or maybe they told her, but she didn’t listen?
Ainsley bit her lips and sighed.
It’s still her fault, though.
[...Gwodfathel.] The baby decided to ask the Godfather, who had more experiences in real-life battle than her.
[Yes, Lil lass?]
[Hum...these people look inexperienced as scouts...how do we help them? It’s too late in training them, but I also don’t want them to lose their lives because of my careless mistake.]
Ainsley’s head throbbed in pain as she asked the Godfather.
Again, she almost put her people in danger. Why can’t she be a good family head even when she already got the position for months already?
Is she really...not suitable for this position?
Seeing Ainsley’s face was a bit pale, the Godfather couldn’t help but worry. He hurriedly floated around Ainsley and spoke in a gentle tone.
[Why are you so worried? This is just a small battlefield...your people will be safe.]
[But they look like amateurs...and they’re nervous. What should I do?] Ainsley lowered her head and took a deep breath.
Should I just sneak into the valley alone? No need to bring the troops–
[Hey. Don’t think about doing everything by yourself.] The Godfather’s voice suddenly sounded, and Ainsley almost bit her tongue.
[What– ]
[Haaa....it is because of this you never thought of training your troops in real-life battles. Aren’t you just pushing them away, fearing they might die?]
Ainsley felt like choking up. The baby slowly squatted and buried her face into her knees.
[I...]
[Get up, Lil Lass. This is the right time to train them. This war is just a small war, even smaller than the last war you’re in. You should use this chance to train your people.]
[But...how? Just let them blindly infiltrate the valley? They seem to be at a loss and don’t know what to do...]
[Then you guide them.] The Godfather poked Ainsley’s cheek with his ghost-like fingers. [Guide them personally. You will be their supervisor, training this new scout team.]
[Guiding them...but I can’t see anything from this distance, ah. My radar range is also limited. Should I really go inside together with these people?]
Ainsley was already planning to join the scout team and infiltrate the valley too, but somehow, she thought that if she did this, she would end up doing things by herself.
Her troops would be useless.
Is there a way to guide these youngsters while also focusing on the goal to take over ? of the valley?
As if knowing Ainsley’s thoughts, the Godfather tugged the corner of his lips. [You don’t need to go with these newbies personally.]
The Godfather cracked his knuckles as he walked around Ainsley.
[You can send your clones.]
!
[C-clones?!] Ainsley almost bit her tongue.
How is it possible? Could she even make clones? From what? Blood? The heck–
Godfather, just what other skills that you haven’t shown me??
