Shanlen may have introduced them, but you can't see their physical appearances or their faces entirely, and if my guess is right, then for some reason there's a teenage girl and an older person among the eight in front of me.
"Well, since we're on the same team, I still hope that our classmates will take off their hoods and introduce themselves. It's the least you can do when you meet your new teammates for the first time.
"Oh yes, of course, nothing more normal. Shanlen replied with a snap of his fingers.
And in the next second, the seven hoods fell down and revealed the faces of my new companions. At the same time a female voice rang out in the room.
"Ah, it's good not to have that piece of cloth in front of your face anymore.
I'm not sure, but from the way she was positioned, it seemed to me that it was May who spoke. And as I had imagined, she is indeed a teenager, I think she must be 16, like me, or a little less.
And in the process, a second voice answered her.
"Oh stop complaining, you were the first one to think it was a cool idea to put a hood on your head.
This voice came from the man right next to her, Vasoros, I think.
Strangely enough, despite the big age difference between them, they are the ones who seem to be the closest in this group.
As a proof, they are the only two who are talking loudly across the room.
"Can't you two shut up with your childishness?
This time it must be Ojoth. I feel like he's the adult in the group. Or maybe he's the loudmouth, there's always one on every team, it never fails.
"Here we go, our big Oj is at it again with his insults all over the place.
This time, since it's a different female voice from May, that means it's Menelle. As for her, she must be the girl who likes to tease others.
"Oh shut up you too, you filthy whore. Ojoth replied.
Well then, in fact, she is the loudmouth of the group, I was not mistaken.
Despite this noisy atmosphere, six of us remain silent: Shanlen, Chauk, Isobe, Rujin, Alia and myself.
Well, not for much longer.
"Shut the fuck up!!!" Shouted a voice louder than all the others.
I recognised the voice in a split second, as did everyone else. It was Shanlen's voice.
And his role, no one could deny it, he was the leader.
Despite his young age, he seemed very respected. Even feared.
When I saw May's reaction, it seemed to me that she was trembling, but since I'm not sure, we'll say that it's just a guess.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but this is me talking.
Shanlen continued his monologue and during this time no other noise could be heard, even the other men on the floor who could be heard from time to time had fallen completely silent, as if they were listening to his speech.
"As you know, we have a little less than 6 months before the war starts, so to have the maximum chance on our side to win it, we will have to train. And for that, each one of you will manage during these 6 remaining months to try to become the strongest. And at the end of this period, we will meet here to start the war together.
With these words Shanlen left, accompanied by Chauk and Isobe, but quickly caught up by Rujin and Menelle.
"Well, it's time for us to go, isn't it, Grandpa?
May and Vasoros left together after uttering this sentence.
"Hey, you bastards, you left me alone with the two newbies!" Ojoth shouted and ran to catch up with his companions.
"Well, well, just the two of us left." Alia said, looking at me.
"Don't you think his speech was ridiculous?
"Yeah, I was thinking exactly the same thing. These instructions are not clear and have no particular objectives. It sounded like a child's plan to steal candy from a shop.
"Ahahah, that's exactly right. But then, it's not so bad, at least it leaves us free.
"Yes, with this time to spare, we'll be able to look for your family all over town."
"Yes, but first let's finish our drinks and then we'll leave.
"Yes, good idea."
I took my glass in my hand and drank my alcohol in one gulp.
Well, almost, when I swallowed the first mouthful, a burning sensation and an unpleasant taste appeared at the same time, which had as reflex to make me spit all that remained in my mouth.
When Alia saw this, she did the same, but not for the same reason. She had spit it all out because she was laughing and watching me swear at the disgusting alcohol.
"I swear, this is the last time I drink alcohol.
"Ahahah, you'll never keep it, we've all made that promise at least once, but nobody ever keeps it." She replied, laughing.
