"It's no trick."
Spoke the second-in-command, whose eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he witnessed Roy's might.
The commander turned to look at him and saw that the arrogant smirk he usually wore was replaced by absolute horror.
"We've really messed up," he blurted, forcing down a knot of fear in his throat. "This... this kid is a monster. Not a mere trainee. We've seriously underestimated him!"
