My Space-Time System

After watching how Blake had defeated all of them without taking a single hit, the unit still found it unbelievable.

What even blew their mind more was that he didn't use Ebony and Ivory or even much of his elements. It was mostly his skills that he used to take down the unit.

"The first thing I would be talking about is this." Blake played back the video to the beginning of the match when Radley had charged at him all alone.

"The first rule of battle is assessing the enemy. They…" Blake paused before looking at the name tags on their vests.

"Andrew, Jerry, and Christopher stopped when they saw the spatial tears, but you continued even though you had no idea of how dangerous they were or what they did."

"I knew what I was doing when I decided to take all of you on, so you should be cautious of everything you don't understand." Blake said before moving over to the next topic.

"The next thing I would be talking about is teamwork. When you wasted no time firing at Radley it was clear that you all didn't care about each other. instead, you just wanted to defeat me."

"The key to victory for you guys was your numbers since you lacked quality, but when you started taking down your teammates the battle was already over before it started."

"Finally, your formation was okay but it would always end up useless if not used properly. As close combatants, you four are meant to occasionally give room for the mages to also join the attack."

"This would not only increase the damage dealt, but it would also save your energy and would reduce chances of mistakes happening."

Blake's explanation made everyone understand what they did, but it was now time to inform them on how to improve.

"First step in improving is that everyone would be undergoing intensive physical and close combat training. Yes, that includes you guys." Blake said referring to the 6 mages in the unit.

"The weakness of every mage is close-quarters combat. So instead of being useless, you will be learning how to survive till your teammates arrive or create space to continue casting spells." Blake said knowing exactly what they were thinking.

[It is nice to see you investing so much in others.] The system said after seeing the training plans Blake had laid out for them.

'LOL, the only reason I am training them is that they would play a major role in the success of my future missions. Besides that, I wouldn't bother to help those that were too quick to judge me.' Blake said to the system.

[I understand.]

…

Colonel Darius had given them 5 days to complete their training, but thankfully Blake's unit had only needed 3 to learn the most important things like teamwork, formation, and so on. As for improving the team's physicality and combat skills, it was something they did anytime they were not assigned a mission.

The reason they were so fast was that they already knew the fundamentals of combat, all that was left was a little guidance.

Also, after Blake had humbled all of them, he gained their respect and they were now willing to learn and improve.

As for Blake, he was even busier than his team. Apart from planning and leading 3 successful gang wipeouts, he was also part of the investigation team because it turned out that the planned crackdown on gangs in the city was more serious than he had thought.

Darius had added him to the investigation department, and not wanting to waste such an opportunity to rack up achievements he went to work.

Using both the locator skill and his high intellect, Blake alone had tripled the speed and success rate of the investigation department.

This in turn provided a lot of missions for the special ops unit which was why his team had been able to wipe out 3 gangs in the space of a week.

"I still don't know how he is so good in both investigation and battle, but he has to do it again." Harry, the second in command of the investigation department thought as he knocked on Blake's door.

"Come in."

"Captain Harry, how may I be of help?" Blake asked.

Harry was a 6' 3" tall, fair-skinned man with friendly blue eyes, a buzz cut, a small nose, and thin lips. His friendly smile coupled with his smile made it unable for one to hate him.

He was the second in command to the Major in charge of the investigation department, so he was doing most of the work.

"Yes." Harry let out a helpless sigh as he was finding it hard to explain. "The higher-ups want us to catch big fish." Harry said in the simplest explanation.

In the first week, the ash corps had wiped out a total of 15 gangs throughout the city of which Blake was involved in solving 13 of them. 7 of them had been completed solely by Blake while the remaining 6 were solved while partnering with others.

The only problem with this was that only 3 of the 15 were mid-rank gangs while the rest were low-rank gangs, but even at that his contribution was mind-blowing and that was why they were coming to him with a bigger problem.

"It's about time." Blake said in a pondering tone shocking Harry.

"How do you know? Where you already informed." Harry couldn't help but ask.

"The city wants to carry out a lot of major projects and wants us to deal with anything that would hinder them. So it is obvious that they are talking about top gangs." Blake explained.

"Any leads or information that can be of help?" Blake asked.

"Nothing at all, every gang now knows about the crackdown and is becoming more cautious." Harry said as he adjusted his glasses.

"Alright, I will see what I can do." Blake said.
