While the women’s primary role seemed to be babysitting the two young leaders, they didn’t see it that way.
Instead, they viewed it as an opportunity to take on greater responsibilities and mentor the next generation of leaders, showcasing their own capabilities in the process.
When Duke observed the two women generously mentoring Clyde and Reeve, a sense of satisfaction crossed his face.
He nodded approvingly, reassured by their dedication to guiding the younger leaders.
The decision to make Clyde and Reeve team captains instead of the two women hadn’t been based on gender.
Both women were highly skilled—not only as fighters but also as leaders, capable of handling even the most challenging situations.
However, this mission wasn’t just about immediate results; it was also about fostering potential.
Kisha had pointed out that Clyde possessed the ’Talent: Command’, a rare gift that indicated he had a natural aptitude for leadership and the ability to command an army in the future.
While this talent was a significant advantage, raw potential alone wasn’t enough.
Clyde needed experience, mentorship, and opportunities to hone his skills.
Leadership wasn’t something that could simply be claimed—it had to be earned and cultivated.
This mission was an ideal training ground for Clyde, a chance to mold him into the leader he was destined to become.
Although Reeve was initially intended to serve as Clyde’s second-in-command, their combined ’Group Synergy’ made their partnership a strategic highlight.
This dynamic, however, also meant that Reeve needed to develop leadership skills alongside Clyde to maximize their potential as a team.
Recognizing this, Duke assigned Rose and Evelyn—both great leaders with patience, tactical acumen, and a nurturing demeanor—to act as mentors rather than lead the groups themselves.
This arrangement allowed Clyde and Reeve to take the reins, giving them the freedom to navigate the complexities of leadership.
Rose and Evelyn stayed close by, offering guidance, constructive feedback, and encouragement when needed.
By letting the young men "drive" while keeping a watchful eye, the women created a supportive environment where mistakes became opportunities for learning.
This hands-on approach ensured that Clyde and Reeve would grow into capable leaders more quickly, equipping them to step out of their mentors’ shadows and confidently lead on their own in the near future.
By adopting this strategy, Duke and Kisha aimed to cultivate a robust pool of capable captains who could each lead their own specialized units.
These units could then be deployed swiftly and efficiently whenever and wherever they were needed.
This approach ensured that the base would not remain overly dependent on Duke, Kisha, or the elite core members like Vulture and Sparrow.
As the base expanded and its influence grew, so did the need for decentralized leadership and operational flexibility.
Developing a new generation of leaders not only reinforced the foundation of their community but also prepared them for a future where challenges would demand multiple teams operating independently.
This forward-thinking approach was crucial for sustaining their strength and ensuring the base’s continued growth and resilience.
After forming their groups, the four teams maintained a balanced formation—close enough to provide support if needed but far enough apart to cover more ground efficiently.
Each team took a different street, carefully coordinating their movements to monitor one another’s progress while ensuring the paths ahead were secure.
If a team encountered a street that posed too much danger, they would backtrack, mark the location with an "X" to indicate a hazardous route, and choose an alternate path.
This methodical approach minimized unnecessary risks and ensured a safer journey for all teams as they advanced cautiously.
The heat was so intense that the rubber on the asphalt was beginning to melt and cling, turning the ground sticky. freewёbnoνel.com
