It's been a week after Dristan fought Meletaus, and still no aggressive movements coming from the Demons. The miasma that surrounds Apo Bunker hasn't been lifted and these cause worries to the authorities monitoring outside the bunker. Sebas and the officials asked once more for a dialogue between Lyne, Scud, and Dristan, however Lyne replied that they will accept it once Dristan recuperates and they'll come up with a decision. The mayor couldn't force them to accept it immediately since they had no liabilities and they are still civilians, Sebas only told them their intentions regarding MREN Users.
Though it was practical to make MREN Users to be absorb in the military, but it will just cause tension between them. So Mayor Sebas decided and told Lyne and Scud that what they need is a cooperation between MREN Users and the Military. Luckily for Lyne and Scud that the Mayor was compassionate to them even though they are different.
As Dristan recovers, Lyne immediately told Dristan everything. Though Dristan agreed with the cooperation along with Lyne and Scud; fighting the Demons with the three of them will be hard.
"As you know, most of my powers were sealed. We cannot assure that we will win the next fight against an Infernal Being. Meletaus who was a Lesser Rank; was even too strong for me. There would be a chance that we will fight an Infernal Being stronger than him." [Dristan]
"Yeah, you were once known to be the strongest MREN User in the underground society but your power dropped rock bottom." [Scud]
"Well, as long as you can keep the Demons like Hell Dogs and Hell Bats at bay; me and Scud will fight the Infernal Beings if ever one appears." [Lyne]
"I'm sorry, I won't be useful as those old days. Even though I am the one who drags the both of you in this situation."
Dristan apologizes as his bows down in guilt.
"No need to say sorry. It was Lyne who drags me in the first place."
Scud replies as he tries to alleviate Dristan's guilt.
"Ok! Let's stop this drama and let's just focus on what we'll gonna do." [Lyne]
"By the way, I heard that the Apo Bunker was surrounded with miasma. Even though it is still far from here it doesn't mean that we are safe." [Scud]
"I almost forgot that! Sebas told me that no one ever passed the miasma even they had a gas mask equipped." [Lyne]
"It seems that there's nothing we can do until we see this miasma. Lyne, for now, let's accept the dialogue with Mayor Sebas and the others. We'll also bring up on taking MREN Users to volunteer... No, more likely to recruit under our wing. We need manpower as we fight those Demons." [Dristan]
"Will there be any volunteers to step forward? They already saw how frightening fighting those Demons especially the Infernal Being." [Scud]
"We don't know useless we try." [Dristan]
"Ok, I'll be going now and look for Mayor Sebas." [Lyne]

On the other hand, there was an announcement echoed throughout the bunker.
--Good Day to Everyone, This your Mayor Sebas of Davao City. We all know that we are in perilous times and by God's grace we are lucky to survive at this point. As you all know that the Apo Bunker has everything we all need as of the moment. However, what we need now is manpower in order to sustain the efficiency of the bunker. We need workers that will help us to build this bunker stronger, not only that but also to sustain and live everyone here without reservation. As of follows we need people whose expertise are on Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Culinary, and Medicine. Henceforth we also need people that could help in those said fields. We cannot pay you or even reward handsomely for your efforts but this will be muchly appreciated from the bottom of my heart and to those who will receive your services. For those who want to volunteer, press the number 9 in your intercoms and await for further instructions. For the Humanity's Longevity! God Bless Us All!--
The announcement resound around the Apo Bunker three times with five minutes interval.
Engineers are vital for the Apo Bunker since the pioneering engineers are now occupied with tons of work without someone who can replace them during their rest time. Whereas in the kitchen, cooks are having hard time cooping up with thousands of individual to be fed everyday. In the Hospital, the crew number may be low and somehow it is enough as of the moment but when unprecedented event comes it will be disaster and many individuals might be unattended due to lack of number of personnel in the hospital.
Unexpectedly after few minutes, tons of civilian responded to become volunteers for the said work. They knew that in order to protect and keep themselves safe they also need to work for it. Monetary has no value now after the world was ravage with Demons and that is why they didn't need any payment or sort since everything they need most is at the Apo Bunker.
The pioneering workers were delighted upon knowing that there are volunteers to help them in their jobs and the burden was reduced. Now a scheduled shifting was created in each field and it helps the improvement of non-combat sector.
