Chapter11
High-Captain Andy called the new hytacs where they will be given their uniform. The new hytacs Whystry, Deimtry, Clytch, Florance, Hyacinth, Augustus, Ritmo, Vylar, George and Charles received a familiar from the High-Captain who said they were being summoned to quarters and had something to say to them. Each of the hytacs mentioned told them their Captain they were working with on the island of Adeady that they were being summoned to the quarters.
A few minutes later, the new hytacs arrived one by one in the quarters hall of the Nwar base on the island of Adeady.
While they were coming together, their fellow hytacs looked at them. "Look at them, aren't they the newbies who fought against the three Umbeiruchte during the height of their training?" asked a hytac. "Yes, I heard that group has a high rank in the entire 69th generation of hytacs and what I know is that they were included in Fortrans" answered a hytac.
"Look at their looks, they are really strange," said a hytac sitting on the floor

While they were being looked at by hytacs, High-Captain Andy, Vice-Captain Agrippa, Uno, Primo, Isa, Almong and Howl suddenly came to the stage. When they arrived, Uno just clapped loudly to get the attention of the people in the quarters hall.
As each hytacs looked ahead they saw them wearing Fortran Uniforms.
High-Captain Andy was a tall man with a black hair and curtain fringe in his hair. He wears his Fortran Uniform.
Vice-Captain Agripa wears his Fortran Uniform. He has a gray hair and has an eye patch on his right eye.
Uno was a thin man wearing his Fortran Uniform with a hood, and wears a scary clown mask.
Primo was muscular man wearing his Fortran Uniform. He has a spiky blond short hair with a scar horizontally on his left face.
Isa was a toned man wearing his Fortran Uniform. He wears glasses and has a black long hair that lengthens within his shoulders.
Almong was a thin man wearing his Fortran Uniform. His hair was a semi bald with a thick eyebrow.
Howl was a young man with long black hair that was tied in a ponytail. He wears his Fortran Uniform.
"I have summoned you to give you your own uniform. This uniform is not an ordinary Hytac uniform, so please respect this outfit. This uniform is the Fortran uniform," High-Captain Andy said, breaking the hush in the quarters hall.
High-Captain Andy distributed the Fortran uniform to his team members and asked them to wear it exactly as it was presented to them. With each uniform distribution, they entered a door visible on the left side of the stage, where Vice-Captain Agrippa, Uno, Primo, Isa, Almong, and Howl are standing. The new Hytac members queued up in High-Captain Andy's group just a few minutes after being given out and changing their clothes.
"Why is our uniform different and not the same as that of other hytac? The answer is that our squad does not have a division commander to handle us, so as a squad without a handle, we will end up in the category called Fortran. What is that? Is Fortran? Fortran is a separate squad within the Nwar Organization, and its members may have a higher or similar rank in other hytacs. Therefore, we can go around in different parts of the world as one group, and we will not be disbanded at this time."
They just looked at each other, as if they didn't comprehend what High-Captain Andy had said. "Based on what you mentioned, is our group conscious?" Vylar inquired. "Will we leave here on Adeady to fulfill a task, or will our group join Nwar's expedition team?"
Vice-Captain Agripa coughed before answering, "The island of Adeady is our quarters or our base. High-Captain Andy is different from the other captains on the island, so our group has the ability to let them follow. As for the mission, we can leave here on the island and do a mission because there are many hytacs left here. As for the Nwar expedition, I can't answer that yet, and that will come from a higher rank than us. That's all."
When Vice-Captain Agripa spoke, Whystry, Deimytr, and Clycth took a step forward and raised their hands to ask questions.
"Can we have enough training to unlock or acquire the different rune points?" Clytch asked.
"As new hytac members, can we compete with certain hytacs here who have been serving our organization for several years, so it will be a good workout for us, maybe will that happen?" Deimytr questioned after Clytch ended.
"Can the two of us talk to High-Captain Andy, including Vice-Captain Agripa?" Whystry asked.
When Whystry mentioned that, High-Captain Andy abruptly halted the discussion in the quarters hall and walked to High-Captain Andy's room with Vice-Captain Agripa.
They left the quarters hall and went to High-Captain Andy's room. "I'm a hytac, but I can't fight my fellow humans, let alone the zeabolis; this is also why I left our place: I can't harm or kill people, and I feel that we shouldn't be killing people," Whystry explains uneasily to High-Captain Andy and Vice-Captain Agripa.
"You're from the Try clan, aren't you?" Vice-Captain Agripa questioned of Whystry. Whystry nodded and glanced at him. "Isn't it the Try clan's only job to serve a kingdom, as it was in the ancient times when they served as their guard, that they will go to any length to protect them?" Agripa inquired. "Unless you're a member, you'll understand what I mean."
"It's why I was rejected because I couldn't accomplish that," Whystry responded. "Even after practicing what I've done, I still can't do it."
"You only know that now because you will be able to do it at the proper moment; killing is in your blood; therefore, you can do it."
He thanked Whystry, High-Captain Andy, and Vice-Captain Agrippa and departed after their talk. High-Captain Andy immediately called him again before he departed, telling Whystry to locate his other novice hytacs and return to the quarters hall for a meeting. Whystry then looked for his colleagues one by one.
After several hours of looking, they may be seen seated on their seats in the quarters hall, waiting for High-Captain Andy and the others.
When High-Captain Andy came, they rose up to pay their respects, but when he saw them, he had them sit down.
"I summoned you all again because we're going to talk about the Hytac skills that you have and can only get via training," High-Captain Andy spoke plainly and firmly.
"Hytac Skills are divided into four parts: Points Skill, Burst Mode, Chaser, and Soul Imprint. It includes four points in the points skill, with the first through fourth points obtained through practice. The first point can be said to be incorporated into your personality; in other words, that first point is already incorporated into your brain before you learn it, so your first skill point is advantageous to your personality. As for the 2nd point to the 4th point, it happens when you practice hard so that you can think of and create a unique way to release or hone your rune powers."
"As for Burst Mode, it goes beyond the limitation of your rune abilities, therefore it can only be released or utilized once you've fulfilled your four points of skill, and most hytacs employ it in the struggle against zeabolis."
"The next one is Chaser Skill, which can only be opened by a hytac by losing the love of a person's life, which is the motivation for them to open and acquire this talent, and they will use the power they lost to condemn their opponents."
"And the last one is the soul imprint. The Rune God's blessing is represented by the soul imprint. The Soul Imprint is divided into three cores in order to achieve it; the memory core, the body core, and the soul core. The grace received through the ability to think is the Soul Imprint: Memory Core. The soul imprint: body core is the grace that can transform into anything depending on the rune you have and the rune god. And the last one is the Soul Imprint: Soul Core which is the blessing that a hytac can receive through the fusion of the Rune God's soul with a hytac's body. Among these three cores, only a few historians achieve this because it is difficult to obtain."
Uno immediately snapped his finger and they landed in another area that was spacious and silent after discussing Hytac Skills. "We can practice our point skills here without disrupting or destroying the environment."
The novice Hytacs became silent and focused their rune abilities one by one. As they concentrated, they became aware of a peculiar presence.
Meanwhile, Captain Wogwen on the west side of Adeady Island noticed someone entering the water and headed to Adeady Island. Captain Wogwen promptly warned the entire island, where they prepared for a probable conflict, based on what they discovered.
