Yes, I know. The captains could have used better names for their squads. Especially, Captain Mitch. But who am I to jugde?
As time passed by, it was finally the ninja dude's turn.
"Kim Carter, which squad do you wish to join?"
I figured that he would join the Crimson Hornet squad because it was based on annihilators whose main strength was speed.
It seemed as though everyone expected this. But the unexpected happened.
"I, Kim Carter wish to join the Silver Thorn squad!" he said with his mystic voice.
Everyone was surprised. Everyone except the captains, master, and Nicola. The master said,
"Mr. Carter, you have chosen well. I didn't expect you to understand your value to the Silver Thorn squad"
The ninja dude nodded his head, and with the words said by the master, the whole crowd seemed to forget how surprised they were a moment ago. The ninja dude came back to the line. Nicola looked at me and mocked me,
"Ha! Who would've thought the great champion wouldn't understand what just happened?"
"Oh please, your aunt probably told you"
She scowled at me. She then looked down.
"No matter what squad you choose you won't be able to meet me. I'm going to do another very dangerous task"
What did she mean? Was she not going to join any squad? Was she just like me? Oh, I'm sorry for the fact that I constantly have to mention things I forgot at the beginning. My dad asked and told me something very seriously right before he left.
Tony, no matter what anyone says, you definitely have to join the Southern legion.
After you pass the selection, you will have to go on a stage-like thing and announce the squad you want to join in front of everyone. But you don't do that. Say that only the captains can hear your choice. You will receive a lot of warnings but no matter what, you have to join!
I didn't get it. What was the Southern legion?
Was it a nickname for a squad? Was it an old squad? I was afraid I was going to make a fool of myself. But so far, if anything my dad had proven himself to be right. So I believed his this time too. The short guy seemed to be talking to Captain Johannes. For some reason, Captain Raphael seemed very anxious and worried. The short guy came forward and cleared his throat.
