Chapter 242  Training For Revenge (Part 2)

As Mikhail stared up at El Diablo, he could feel the weight of his failure bearing down on him. He knew he had disappointed the gang leader, and the consequences could be severe.

"You had such potential," El Diablo spoke slowly, his voice sending chills down Mikhail's spine. "I had high hopes for you, but it seems you lack the strength and determination I require. I guess will have to end our mutual agreement."

Mikhail gritted his teeth, trying to gather his courage. "I won't give up," he said firmly. "I'll become stronger, I promise. Just give me another chance."

El Diablo studied him for a moment, his eyes piercing through Mikhail's soul. "Another chance, hm?" he mused.

"Are you sure this is what you want? Do you want to redeem yourself?" he asked with a curious and sinister look.

"Yes, I will prove my loyalty to you, I won't fail again, please just don't end our agreement." Mikhail pleaded.

"You're fortunate I see something in you. But know this: I don't give second chances lightly. You know exactly what happens to those who fail me," El Diablo warned.

Mikhail nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. "I won't let you down again," he vowed. "I'll do whatever it takes to prove myself."

El Diablo's lips curled into a faint smile. "Good," he said. "I have another mission for you, a test of your loyalty and determination. Prove yourself in this task, and I might consider giving you a chance to redeem your previous failure."

Mikhail listened intently, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew this was his chance to prove his worth and regain El Diablo's trust.

El Diablo leaned in closer, his voice low and dangerous. "Your teammates, Natasha and Haruto have betrayed the gang and have decided to escape by seeking shelter in the military," he explained. "I want you to eliminate them once you return to military school. If you succeed, I'll consider your debt to me paid."

Mikhail's heart sank as El Diablo's instructions settled into his mind. Eliminate his old teammates, Natasha and Haruto, for betraying the gang. It was a gut-wrenching task, and he couldn't help but feel conflicted. They had fought side by side on several missions before, and the bond they shared was not easily forgotten, especially Natasha.

Torn between loyalty to his gang and his feelings for his former comrades, Mikhail struggled to make a decision. He knew that failure to carry out this task could have dire consequences, but he couldn't ignore the memories of his friends.

Seeing Mikhail's indecisiveness, El Diablo decided to push him in the right direction by telling him about the series of events that took place after he got knocked out by Mako that he received from his sources within the military.

"Once you were knocked out by that boy, Natasha, and Haruto both immediately surrendered and the boy's group let them go free. If they would have remained and fought, the officers wouldn't have come and eliminated you, but since your teammates abandoned you and you were knocked out, they had a reason to disqualify you," El Diablo explained.

Mikhail was shocked as he heard El Diablo explain what had after he was knocked away.

"Natasha played you. She never really loved you, she just wanted to become strong through us and then stab us in the back and that is exactly what she has done. She and Haruto both fled and survived on the island. They were then brought to the military base where Natasha purposefully turned down the opportunity to become a private just so she wouldn't be affiliated with anyone and could be free after finishing military school," El Diablo continued.

Mikhail's eyes widened in shock as he heard El Diablo explain all the details of what had been happening behind his back.

As he sat there, wrestling with his emotions, Mikhail knew he had to act and do it soon. He couldn't risk being seen hesitating or showing signs of weakness.

Anger and Rage were building in his heart as he couldn't believe that he would be betrayed like this. They were the reason he was in this mess in the first place. If he was an ordinary fighter, he would have long been dead and his agreement with El Diablo would also be terminated.

Mikhail nodded, accepting the mission without hesitation. "Consider it done," he said, determination burning in his eyes.

"Remember, failure is not an option," El Diablo warned, his expression darkening. "You must prove your loyalty to Los Zetas and bring me the good news within six months."

Mikhail nodded again, his resolve firm. "I won't let you down," he repeated.

With that, El Diablo stepped back, and the darkness in the room seemed to recede slightly. He handed Mikhail a small package "The weird ability that boy used on you is called the Energy Manipulation ability. It is a resonated ability that emerges from the wrapped in black cloth.

"The weird ability that boy used on you is called the Energy Manipulation ability. It is a resonated ability that emerges from the resonance of Fire and Lightning." El Diablo said.

"Inside you'll find a level 3 Lightning book and 2 skill books, I want to see if you hold the same potential as that boy. I want you to resonate as well and obtain the energy ability too," El Diablo added.

Mikhail clutched the package tightly, feeling a mixture of curiosity and determination. He knew the path ahead would be difficult and uncertain, but he was willing to do whatever it took to prove himself.

"If you can do that before your term starts in military school, I will reward you with one last thing that will give you the power you need to execute your mission and revenge." El Diablo said before disappearing completely into the darkness one last time.

Mikhail felt a newfound sense of purpose as he left the dark room. He now had two missions and would see it through no matter the cost. He would become stronger, to show El Diablo that he was worthy of his trust.

He would take his revenge on Mako for destroying his life and putting him in such a situation, and he would also confront Natasha and Haruto but give them a chance to explain themselves. He wanted to hear from their own mouths what El Diablo said was true or not, and if it was, he would show them no mercy for betraying him.

"Yes, I have started to get the hang of the Lightning ability. It won't be long until I resonate it with my fire," Mikhail replied to El Diablo.

However, El Diablo didn't look so pleased as he just nodded slightly and walked away. The truth was Mikhail was still weeks away from getting all the basics down regarding the Lightning ability as he hadn't been able to make the book disappear yet as he hadn't learned everything that was stored inside of it yet.

Time was of the essence, and Mikhail had to work harder than ever to produce results that would please El Diablo for the sake of him keeping his word. He couldn't slack off in the slightest.

With that, Mikhail marched off to the common room to catch his breath and recover a bit before heading back home to learn more about lightning.

"Just wait, I will be a terrible force to be reckoned with, the next time you see me," Mikhail vowed to himself as images of several people popped up in his mind.

*******************

The day of the rematch had arrived, and the tension in the training area was palpable. Mako, Erin, and Iris, forming Team A, stood on one side, their eyes focused and determined.

On the other side, Team B, comprised of Bill, Nathan, and Leon, mirrored their opponents' intensity. This rematch was their chance to show Commander Sable just how much they had improved and how ready they were for their first mission.

Commander Sable, along with some other senior officers, observed the impending match from his office. He knew that this match would reveal how much progress each team had made since their initial training match a week ago.

The arena was a large, open space, dotted with obstacles and terrains that could be used The rules were the same as before. Avoid all the obstacles and reach the center first to retrieve the crystal, with the team successfully bringing it back to their starting point will be the winner.

As the signal to begin the match was given, both teams sprang into action. Mako led Team A, his strategic mind already assessing the situation. He knew that teamwork and communication were key, and he had to keep in mind his team's strengths and weaknesses and advance accordingly in order to secure the victory.

On the other side, Team B also quickly began making their way through, helping each other to maneuver around the traps and turrets placed around the area and advancing at a decent pace.

The area was a lot different than before with many more traps and double the number of turrets. Everyone had expected there to be a twist in the final test and rightfully so as this was the test that would determine whether they would be qualified enough to work out on the field for real.
