Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Roughly three days passed after the incident. The traitor was still hidden amidst the Scouts. Roger didn't dare to send or make the team do tasks this time. He was rigorous in doing things and interviewed everyone for their Alibi during the incident. Of course, it also slowed down the progress of their operation significantly.

Roger found out that everyone participated in the tasks, and only a few scouts were left behind. The good thing is, those who were left behind were with him. And he knew that they didn't go anywhere. He was sure of it. As a Tier 6 Destiny, his memory was quite sharp. After all, his spirit attribute was incomparable to that of an ordinary person. He remembered every face with him and could make sure that they didn't behave strangely during those times.

What does this mean? It means that the culprit was one of the teams he sent out to perform tasks. The damned bastard deliberately made sure that he was also attacked by the others to cover his presence and made it hard to investigate.

The question is... Who is it? Is he one of those severely injured ones or those who don't didn't suffer much? It's incomprehensible to injure yourself, right? However, Roger knew that the culprit might really injure himself to avoid further suspicion!!

Roger was out of his wits and he didn't know what to do. In the end, after he thought about things thoroughly. He knew that it could not go on any longer. Things must not continue or they would waste a lot of time. The only thing he could do now was to make a bait! A bait that will tempt the traitor!

He decided to give the tasks to three teams this time! Specifically, team four, team two, and team seven. They won't be able to continue the operation with the traitor lurking within the camps. He has to make to clean the damn bastard once and for all!

...

The team seven, team four, and team three were called privately inside the camp. No one was beside Roger and they knew it.

Roger stared at the three teams in front of him and sighed. "You kid must be wondering why I called you here, right?"

Caleb, Shu, and the other members nodded. Zulang, the leader of the team four, spoke smartly at this time. "Will you give us a task again, captain? But the traitor hasn't been caught yet, right? It's too risky..."

Roger narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Hmmm... Are you actually questioning me?"

"No, I dare not to!" Zulang felt a cold sweat on his back. Damn! His mouth!

"Good..." Roger nodded his head. Then his hawk-like eyes piercingly swept Caleb, Shu, Zulang, and the others and said. "The traitor isn't one of you, right?"

The mood tensed for a while. No one dared to say anything in case they would say something wrong. Following that, Roger turned his back to them. "I hope not. This time, I plan to send you guys on tasks again. Even if there's a traitor, we must continue!"

Of course, he wouldn't say to them that he plans to bait the traitor in case the traitor was in the midst of teams he called right now. Wouldn't it defeat the purpose? Then he looked at Caleb and smiled. "You are the one that will lead this operation. You performed well these past few days and did a good job of saving a lot of people. I'm satisfied with your performance."

Shu: "..."

Caleb: "..." Fuck you! Why me? I just want to stay damn lowkey! Can't you assign other people to take the lead? Why me?

Of course, Caleb didn't dare to voice his thoughts out. Who was in front of him? A sixth-seat officer who was about to be promoted to 5th Seat. It would be unwise to refuse the other party who had a good impression on him. So, he didn't have a choice but to bite the bullet.

Sigh... Staying low-key is really hard! Caleb thought so.

Just like that, Roger excused himself under Caleb's helpless eyes. Following that, Kidd and Kazuto patted Caleb's back and rejoiced.

"Damn, Johan! It seems the Captain really trusts you! How admirable! I'm fucking envious. With this, you would be able to reap a lot of contributions since he would give you the more important tasks from now on!"

Lucky? Fuck you!

Caleb rolled his eyes, which made Shu beside him smile, and said. "They are right, Johan. This is a good thing. With this, our team can take more initiative in matters concerning the operation. Well, that is, as long as we do a good job with the task he entrusts to us." his expression became solemn after he said this.

"We are on your hands now!" Zulang and the leader of the team three bowed to Caleb politely.

Hmmmm? Are they trying to hug my thigh?

Caleb mused.

From team one to team nine. There are people worth mentioning, and he was wary of them. One of them was Zulang in front of him. Within one year, as someone observant and takes attention to details to his heart. Caleb had memorized the faces and names of everyone. From geniuses down to the side characters and cannon fodders!

Zulang was actually on his threat lists, ranked 5th! Why though? Well, it was based on his rigorous, extremely meticulous observation! For a brief background, within the year, he actually conducted a background investigation with the other party. Welp, why would he investigate someone? It was a way of his habit, that's it. For how Batman always lists the weaknesses and vulnerabilities of his enemies and allies alike in case he needs them in the future. It was pretty much the same!

Batman's feat of listing the weaknesses of Justice League and the likes left a deep impression on young Caleb in his first life and subtly influenced his way of doing things.

Back at the topic again. Zulang wasn't as simple as he seemed on the surface. First of all, when he was 10 years old, he single-handedly killed a lion with his bare hands. Quite a feat if you say so. Second, Zulang is the descendant of Storm God! Well, Caleb doesn't really know what the hell does that means, but it sounds incredible nonetheless. Being a descendant of the Storm God didn't mean his from a high-ranking family, though. It was the opposite... Since descendants of the Gods are determined by the mark on their foreheads. It was a unique mark and randomly appeared on any individual from birth.
