Adopted Soldier Chapter 226

Chapter 226
The moment Dan was pushed back by Michel, he finally took a proper stance . He had concluded that attacking Alex wont work if he doesn't deal with Carlo and Michel first . Michel seeing that Dan was about to get serious, decided to also get serious .
She removed her leather jacket revealing the weapons hidden underneath . The weapons she had were different kinds of knives, different kinds of handguns, she even had a tonfa . Michel then discarded the handguns since those would only slow her down, in this kind of fight inside such a close space . She also might hit one of the children accidentally . So she kept only the weapons that could be used in a melee . Seeing that most projectile weapons don't really work on Dan .
Though she wasn't able to bring out even half of her weaponry, Michel was serious in beating up Dan . She was truly enraged by Dan who was scared her daughter, and was about to attack her son . On the other hand, Carlo who used to be one of the best mercs around, knew that he wont be able to keep up with the two fighters, since his right leg was gone . Instead he decided to simply support Michel every chance he got . The moment he sees an opening Carlo was sure to take it .
. . .
As things were heating up between the three, the kids aside from Alex, were getting a bit frightened . Even Rachel who was good enough to beat armed thugs felt a bit scared of her own father .
Evangeline and even Rachel who were frightened by the sudden fight, were now standing behind Alex . When Dan saw Alex being surrounded by girls including his own daughter, that scene made him angrier . His mind got even cloudier as his rage was filling it .
Dan then went into his full RELEASE state, his muscles started to bulge into an enormous size, but after a few seconds his muscles suddenly got smaller and firmer . Dan now looked to be a head shorter than before . Even his body and face seemed to look a bit younger, this was the final form of the RELEASE state . the first form of RELEASE was that of bulging muscles, but the end form was that of compact muscles .
Dan doesn't like entering this state, since once he was done fighting, his whole body would feel like breaking . The pain he would feel was so much, that even someone like Dan whose body was literally harder than steel, feel like he dying . With that kind of backlash, his body would be unable to move for a couple of days . Even knowing that, Dan was to angry to think things through . He was then about ready to attack, but before he could do so, he felt a familiar presence closing in on him . After which he felt a heavy hand hit his head . Normally who would've evaded or countered, but the person who did this was one of the only few that was allowed to so without receiving retaliation from Dan
This person without any fear was none other than Kumiko, Rachel's mother, and Dan's wife . After telling Dan what happened when he was away, her husband suddenly turned furious and headed straight to Alex's abode wanting to crush him .
Kumiko followed her husband but his speed compared to hers was overwhelmingly different . She just couldn't keep up . That's the reason why she only arrived just now . The moment she saw her husband she immediately hit him in the head to calm him down .
"Honey, get a hold of yourself!" Dan who heard his wife's voice screaming into his ear, was finally able to calm down . He then went back into his normal state . Since he didn't use the RELEASE state for long, his body was still in the clear .
"But Kumi, that b*stard took our daughter and brought her to his lair!" Dan pointed at Alex who was carrying the scared Lilitth . Seeing that Kumiko gave her husband another smacked in the face .
"I was the one who handed Rachel to Alex, he didn't kidnap her . " Dan who heard this looked at his wife in shock .
"Kumi how could you! Why did you sell our daughter to a fiend who likes to surround himself with other girls?!" Dan was once again being unreasonable, since his mind was clouded by his feelings for his family . Seeing her enraged husband, Kumiko started explaining everything from the beginning . This time Dan who was cooling down a bit, was able to hear the whole story .
After listening to the whole story, Dan's anger was then redirected to whoever put a bounty on his daughter's head . Understanding how her husband's mind works, Kumiko once again smacked her husband in the head .
"I know your itching on killing that fool that dare placed a bounty on our daughter's head, but isn't there something else that you need to be doing right now?" Dan sighed and then bowed deeply before Carlo, Michel, Alex, and everyone else .
"I"m sorry about what I did . You know me when it comes to my family especially my daughter, it doesn't seem like I can think clearly . I'm truly sorry about breaking your stuff, and saying such awful things, as well as trying to harm you . I'll pay for the damages Carlo, once again I apologize . "
Seeing Dan apologize, Carlo and Michel also calmed down, and hid their weapons . Rachel on the other hand approached her dad and slapped him .
"Stupid Dad! I understand your worried about me, and I'm grateful for that, but seriously think before you do something!" Hearing his daughter scold him, Dan was about to cry, but he kept it in and apologized to Rachel harder than before .
"Alright now that this whole misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's have a meal . Evangeline call you mom and dad and tell them we are inviting them for a meal here . " Out of nowhere Carlo suggested something that left the people who were tensed moments ago, looked at him confused .
