My Space-Time System

Chapter 517 Battle For command.

After his briefing with Colonel Darius, Blake left the office and met up with Ashely who was tasked to take him to his new office which was now on the top floor.

“Here you go!” Ashely said as she stopped in front of a door that Had Blake’s name written on it.

Blake placed his hand on the door handle, his palmprint was scanned before the door finally opened up.

On entering the room, Blake quickly noticed a lot of things. Not only was the office twice in size compared to his previous one, but the quality of everything in the room had increased by a whole lot.

“You can request to make changes or make additions to the office and it will all be paid for by management.” Ashely informed him.

‘A personal driver, a unit always watching over my house and now an office that I can make any type of customization without paying!’

‘I didn’t know that Major’s enjoyed so many benefits. I can definetly get used to this!’ Blake thought as he smiled on the inside.

“Is there anything else I can help you with?” Ashely asked.

“No, that would be all for now.” Blake dismissed her. Please visit

……

…

‘Wow!’ Ashely mouthed as she left the office. She was still finding it hard to believe that Blake was now a Major.

She still remembered the first time that she came in contact with Blake through a mission. At that time he was still a student in the magic school, but still, he was still racking in achievements in the adventurer association.

The mind-blowing part was that it had only been 4 years since then, and Blake was already a Major in the Ash corps.

‘Why do I have the feeling that this is just the start.’ Ashley thought before shaking her head.

…

After Ashely left the office, Blake moved around the office and sat in different spots to get the feel of the office.

“I have a few customizations in mind, but if I do that it wouldn’t be considered an office again.” Blake couldn’t help but laugh at the crazy things he had in mind.

After getting the ‘feel’ of his new office, Blake wasted no time getting to work. He moved to his desk and used the communication device to call Camilla.

“You called for me, sir.” Camilla said as she saluted him.

“Is it only me that feels weird when we salute each other?” Blake asked he returned the salute.

“You sure are not the only one.” Camilla chuckled before asking. “How were your 2 days off?”

“Hectic, but nothing I can’t handle.” Blake replied with a proud smile. They chatted for some time before Blake went on with the reason for calling her.

“Just like I promised I made the request to add you to my team as my second in command, and Colonel Darius accepted.” Blake’s news put a smile on Camilla’s face.

“All that is left is to introduce you to the team.” Blake completed.

…

Without wasting time, Blake and Camilla met with his team who were currently training in one of the training rooms.

On entering the room, everyone stopped whatever they were doing and took their formation before saluting.

“Everyone meet, Captain Camilla, from today onward she would be my second in command.” Blake announced causing different reactions in the training room.

‘Another young Captain?’

‘What happened to Radley?’

‘Why not me?’

Most of the unit, especially Radley was not happy with the announcement, but it was as if Blake could read their minds.

“It is clear that most of you are not happy with this decision.” Blake said but no one dared to voice opinions. “So, we will settle it just like we always do, with a battle.”

“The winner would be my second in command. So if you have an issue with the decision step forward or forever hold your peace.” Blake said.

After a few seconds of no one moving, Radley finally stepped forward.

‘Just like I expected.’ Blake thought. Radley recently advanced to the 2nd stage of the Hero realm, and had previously been the one acting as his second in command. So, it was within Blake’s expectations that he would be the one to step forward.

As for Camilla, she was not bothered by Blake’s decision of having a battle. She felt it was necessary for her to prove herself to Blake, and it was also a way to gain the respect of the members of the unit.

Both parties took their positions on the battleground, and without wasting further time, Blake announced the start of the fight.

“Begin!”

Once the announcement was made, Camilla activated Water wheel while Radley equipped his gauntlet and charged at her.

Seeing Radley dashing toward her, she stood her ground and began firing countless water spells at him.

BOOM!

Stomping his feet on the ground, an earth wall erupted in front of him and began moving forward with him.

‘The idea that the weakness of all mages was engaging them in close-quarters combat has led a lot of people to their graves.’ Blake shook his head as he watched Radley use the earth wall as a shield, to further shorten the distance between them.

Ziu!

Out of nowhere, a water whip slashed the wall vertically into two parts, but even though Radley’s vision was being blocked by the wall, he was still able to sense the attack and dodge it on time.

Ahhh!

Radley let a growl as he activated Berserker spell which engulfed his body in raging flames before dashing forward and instantly the remaining distance between them.

Seeing this, Camilla activated lightning reinforcement, Neuron overload, and coated her body with a layer of water before dodging each and every one of the punches that Radley rained on her.

Although the berserker spell increased all the attributes of the caster, it still didn’t make him fast enough for a spell that only focused on increasing speed.

“Stand still!” Radley was further enraged as he continuously threw tens of punches but none connected.

“Make me.” Camilla said with a smirk making him even angrier.

“You asked for it!” Clinching his fists, Radley activated the skill of his gauntlets which increased his spell-casting rate and the power of his spells.

The raging flames around him doubled in size, neutralizing the spells from the water wheel that never stopped firing, but then an earth wall suddenly erupted behind Camilla.

BOOM!
