"i think he just needs to rest... We don't want him to freak out again, and maybe hide that dagger. It can really make someone lose it." I suggested while making my way up the stairs to my room. "good night you guys."
I made my way inside the room, while removing my mercenary outfit and placing it safely on the vacant chair. Untill I started to hear some pecking sounds at the window side, as I turned my gaze towards it only to be greeted by a... Hawk, and it seems to have a small letter attached to it's leg.
'huh' I opened the window, while collecting the letter from it's leg, as it flew into my room, making itself feel at home on my bed. I opened to letter, as my eyes started to water on what I saw written on it.
'dear little brother'
"......iris."

At the guild main hall.
At Central of the capital
Hercul p.o.v
I walked with my guild mates, at least the ones that helped in the breach. As we made our way towards the main table that was reserved until our arrival, we all made our self comfortable taking our seats, while noticing that it was not just our own guild that came. As we could see the amadilo guild, the raging wave guild, the hell flame guild and the one and not the least... The barbarians guild as well. All representing the their individual main power hold, the amadilo and hell flame guild both bearing the elemental art under magic technique.... The fire attribute, the raging wave also bearing the elemental art... The water attribute... And the savage of all of them, bearing the physical art under the aurora technique... The beast attribute. Making all of them a force to be reckoned with, all bearing the advantage over there individual attributes, that's what truly makes them high level mercenaries.
I remained standing, while maintaining my base form as they was no serious threat at hand... Though, I do tend feel on guard being in the presence of the council, though won't be... They are the best of the best mercenary; all bearing skills and strength that rivals those of the higher pillar of the order of the territory, basically the heads of top tier clan leader, some with the power that may seem unbelievable to imagine, but even I have had my own share of being able to witness it first hand.
"Earth to hercul..." tamaki had called out to me, trying to gain my attention; as I just snapped out from my train of thought. "you seem to be lost hercul... Is something wrong?"
"do not worry tamaki, just tired that's all... though I wonder why the council are taking their time." I explained to tamaki, while staring at the pedestal of the council while squinting my eyes in a garing pose. "... though I guess maybe it just that this is the great perennial meeting of the guilds of cryprus, I guess."
"well you're not that off hercul... Even I wonder what is taking the council so long." Ruk added on the conversation, always being as nosy as ever.
"HEY WHY DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO ACT LIKE A CREEP RUK! YOU ALMOST GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!" tamaki shouted out being pissed by this. As sahal had arrived out of no where with a gigantic bottle of sake, which started to irritate zura; who was currently holding her nose due to the alcohol smell.
"must you drink all the time sahal!" zura shouted out in anger, as she continues to glare at sahal; who didn't even care of anyone's appearance. "HEY ARE YOU EVEN LISTEN YOU DRUNKARD!"
"You know that they is a nicer way to ask for a cup right and sheesh will it kill you to use you inner voice... We're in the main guard house, emperor sahal will not approve of this..." sahal had shut up zura; who now had a sweat drop by this. "HEY LIFE STOCK SHUT UP, EMPEROR SAHAL DOES NOT LIKE SHOUTING..... WHERE ARE WE AGAIN!"
Tamaki and zura had a confused look on their faces, as a deep blush was now on sahal's face, clearly indicating that he was drunk. Tamaki walked towards him with an angry expression on her face due to his previous remark of her... Oh no.
"What did you say... Friend?" Tamaki asked with her... Serial killer smile that brought shivers to everyone's back.. even the other guilds members were feeling the bloodlust from her. As sahal had just looked into her eyes with his lazy ones, and a half asleep face. Sahal drank from his sake one more time with a smug on his face.
'don't say anything you fool' ruk thought with a cheerful smile on his face as usual.
'yep his dead.' Zura had already knew the out come of the event.
'better help with support' jack had resorted, also knowing that the occurrence was futile, as he made his way to the back of sahal.
"
"Okay then... I said that you should shut up you livestoc-aaahh" sahal couldn't complete his sentence, as she too his sake and had smashed it up his lower jaw, breaking it and throwing him back in the process. Blood flowed out of his nose, landing directly on Jack's shoulders. Tamaki on the other hand had enjoyed this with a please expression on his face, as she just walked away while taking her seat and on queue... The council had appeared on their seat from thin air, with all 18 of them present and accounted for. Comprising of the upper 6, the mid 6 and the lower 6, all with overall skills and strength.
"apologies for the late arrival one and all, we were delayed at the universal Congress, due to the sudden... Breach in the capital's seal... They was even a siting of a new born yoma, which had elevated the breach level to code grey." Edward spoke out with authority as usual, being the head of the council but then smiled as he turned his gaze towards the sun guild... Strange. "but yet... It couldn't face the might of the sun guild."
"w-what! how can that be..." a member of the raging wave guild had exclaimed, as this led to all of the rest of the other guilds to mummers and whisper in shock, as to how they were able to do it.
"I-it can't be!" a member of the amadilo guild argued.
"thats impossible, a hamji of its calibre is one that even half of the guild council will have difficulty against it!" a member of the hellflame guild mentioned as all the rest of the guilds had all started to questioned.
"ENOUGH!" Michael shouted out in annoyance, as every one in the hall had attained silent. "as blizzard as it seems, this very guild had handled the new born yoma very well... And because of that, on behave on the council."
"we give our out most gratitude on stopping the new born yoma." Lady koneke announced with a firm expression on her flawless face.
"And with that we award your guild with promotion." Lord rukia announced with a big smile on his face. As everyone was still shocked by this, but most my guild.
'what are they up to.' I thought with a confused and glaring expression on my face. 'just how were they aware that me and CW had handled the yoma... Damn it!'
"Yes and that is the promotion of your guild... Into elites, under the sect of the head clan of the capital!" master Lord Edward shouted out with a cheerful grin. "the fortia clan, ruled by his supremacy... Emperor Galileo, Lord Isaac!!!"
The council announced, shocking the whole guilds in the hall. My guild members had a horrified look on their face... So that means. All of our guild mark had now turned to the symbol representing the fortia clan, with a four side black coloured star.
"So you mean that they have full control over us." Jack asked with a horrified look on his face and so did Tamaki, Indra, Kira, zura and the other rest of them.
"yes mid rank, you all shall be relocated to the fortia clan's home section." Lord Edward answered with a smile on his face.
"You should be honoured, the fortia clan hold the most powerful set of mages, knight and barbarian." Lord Hera respond with a prideful grin on his face... Must be because his from their.
"yep this is the worst meeting ever." Indra sulked, but then the council then announced.
"so without any more delays, let the perennial meeting being!"
"WHAT SO THEY HAVE NOT EVEN STARTED!" Indra cried out.
--------------------
No p.o.v
At the orphanage
"hey zero! Come on let's start heading to the farm, we're out of food stock!" sister Mia had called out to zero, so that they could start going. But then kami came down the stairs, with a confused expression on his face.
"... A farm, wait you guys have a farm?" kami questioned, as sister Mia had just smiled due to his sudden interest in it.
"Well yes we do have, since that we're not welcomed every time into the town... So we made a farm not that far from the orphanage... East from here." She pointed eastward, explaining to kami. "so when our food stock is low, we go to the farm to restock."
"oh I see... Well maybe I can give you guys a hand-."
"no way! You stay here and heal! I don't you cramping my style... Remember that I don't still trust you... You and your nightmares." Zero interrupted, as he packed all the tool need in the harvest such hoes and pitch folks and so on. "come on big sis Mia, don't want us to be affected by his bad juju-ahhh."
"hey watch your mouth you unicorn, just say you're afraid of getting lost in my dust as I finish the harvest work even faster." Kami took some of the tools from me and took all of it from Mia, as he raced eastwards and so did zero. Sister Mia had smiled because of this.
"Their getting along, thank you lord." She praised, while locking the front gate and following them.
"just try and catch up unicorn." Kami had started to leap from tree to tree, gaining more speed than zero; who was now annoyed by this. Kami continued to race on, until he soon sighted a very nearby farm, of a small scale. "bingo, that must be it!"
Kami leaped from the tree and landed perfectly on the grass land opened fields of the farm.
"ha I told him that he will eat my dust... At least my stamina is almost back to full health." Kami examined his seal tattoo with a grin on his face... But then something caught his eyes and attention... In fact it was something that he never thought that he would see again... The strange skeletal hamji that lurks the forest. "....this again."
It stared at kami for a long time, as it's very glares had sent shivers down Kami's spine. The stare kept on, until zero's voice could be heard from far away, scaring off the hamji... Though again, it's escape was instantaneous that it looked like as if it had vanished out of thin air... Strange.
"....I have a bad feeling for this. This hamji does not seem to be like the regular ones... In fact, it almost looked like as if it was... Monitoring me... So Unlikely for a hamji to do..." I observed, as zero started to run towards me with a very angry expression on his face... Oh no gotta run.
"KAMIIIIIII!!!!!!!"
