In a building not too far away from where the Soldier Ranked soldiers stay, 6 people could be seen sitting in a round table in a seemingly large room.
Out of the 6 people seated, 3 of them were old while the other 3 are middle aged. From the 3 old people, there are two men and a woman while from the 3 middle aged people, there are also two men and a woman.
The 3 old people wore a golden colored military uniform while the 3 middle aged people wore azure colored military uniform.
Among the middle aged men, one of them is actually the grandpa of the Kyler Pearce!
"Are you sure those kids are ready Kyler?" One of the old man wearing the golden colored military uniform said as he looked at Kyler solemnly.
"They must be because we don't have much time left Vice General" Kyler replied with a serious look on his face.
"What do you mean?" Asked the only old woman among the 6 people seated as she had a confused expression on her face. Not only her, even the others looked at Kyler with a confused expression on their faces.
After taking in a deep breath, Kyler finally answered with a trembling voice as slight fear was in the depths of his eyes.
"I think… their leader is about to become an immortal"
"What!?" Exclaimed the other old man as he looked at Kyler with a disbelieving look on his wrinkled face.
"Are you sure you know what you are saying?" The old man asked in a deep voice as he looked at Kyler gravely.
"Yes Vice General. I don't dare to lie to you all about this" Kyler replied solemnly. When everyone heard that, the room suddenly became tense as everyone has a gloomy look on their faces.
"Looks like the Grand General needs to know about this" The old man who asked the last question suddenly said with a gloomy look still on his face.
'I hope you won't do anything irrational' Kyler thought as a gloomy look was also on his face.

"Woah! That was really a satisfying training session" Robert exclaimed as he tiredly landed on one of the couches in Pearce's living room.
"Says the guy who messed up the most in the battle formation" Pearce said as he rolled his eyes angrily at Robert. When the others heard what Pearce said, they suddenly laughed out loud.
"I already said am sorry Captain" Robert said with a helpless look on his face.
"Looks like I was right when I said you are the dumbest among all of us" Goerge said with a evil grin on his tanned face.
"Ok I admit am not the smartest in this group. But as long as am stronger than you, am satisfied" Robert replied with a wide grin on his face.
"Urgh" Goerge said as he suddenly became gloomy. When everyone saw this, they suddenly began to laugh out loud.
"Ok guys, that's enough. I have an announcement to make"Pearce eventually said as he suddenly sit upright before he announced.
"You guys will be coming here everyone morning to practice the battle formation till we became perfect with it"
"Yes Captain!" Echoed everyone except Pearce.
"But Captain, I have a question"Suddenly, Barnes said
"What is it?" Pearce asked as he looked at Barnes calmly.
"What are you going to name our group?" Barnes asked with a curious look on his face.
"That's true! We don't have a name"
"I wonder the name our Captain will give this group"
"At least it will be better than the scrappy names that always full your empty head"
"You…"
As soon as Barnes asked his question, a discussion suddenly arised among the other group members.
«I can suggest a name for you kid» Pearce's replica suddenly said which made Pearce to wake up from his deep thoughts.
«And what's the name you wanna suggest?» Pearce suddenly asked as he looked at his replica skeptically.
«Monster Slayers» His replica suddenly said with a mysterious smile on his face.
«I knew you will only… wait, this name ain't bad» Pearce suddenly said as his eyes brightened.
‹I really need to teach this kid a lesson› Pearce's replica thought as his ethereal face twitched by how Pearce underestimated him.
«Thanks for the suggestion» Pearce suddenly said with a light smile in his face.
«You're welcome» His replica replied calmly even if he has a proud look in his eyes. But unfortunately, Pearce didn't notice it as he has already turned his attention to the outside world.
"I think I have a fitting name for this group" Pearce suddenly said with a light smile on his face.
"What is it Captain?" Robert suddenly asked as he looked at Pearce along with the others. After building suspense in the group, Pearce finally said…
"Monster Slayers"
"Monster Slayers" Everyone said this two words as a bewildered look were in a ll their faces. But in the next moment, their eyes suddenly brightened as they exclaimed all together.
"What a great name!!"
"After hearing the name of our group, I feel like I could kill all the monsters in the world with just my bare hands" Barnes suddenly said with an excited expression in his face.
"Mine is I feel my blood boiling for battle" Bridget suddenly chimed in with an excited expression on her face.
"Ok guys now you know our group name, it's time for you guys to go back to your houses. You know we have something important to do tomorrow" Pearce suddenly said as he calmly stood up.
What Pearce meant by that was because tomorrow was the day they will be assigned to their first station.
"Yes Captain!"Echoed everyone as they stood up before they began to leave Pearce's house one by one.
"See you tomorrow Captain" Robert suddenly said as he was the only one who hasn't left yet.
"See you too Vice Captain"Pearce replied with a light smile on his face. And so, Robert left Pearce's house. As soon as Robert left the house, Pearce slowly came out of his house as he looked at the night starry sky with a calm look on his face.
Not long after, he saw three people staying motionlessly in the sky. These three people are a man, a woman and a small little girl. The man wore a white polo and jeans, the woman wore a simple green colored gown while the little girl wore a simple shirt with a skirt.
While staring at the three faceless people that were holding there hands in the sky, his eyes suddenly became red as he thought resolutely.
'I swear on my name that I will avenge you all'
