In one of the branch offices of the Blue Seals guild, specifically the one in Mega City I, the atmosphere was electrifying, as a small sparring session was ongoing.
The branch master, Eryx Vandergard, was in the center of it all, his long red hair tied back in a loose ponytail that swayed with his every movement.
His piercing purple eyes glinted with excitement as he sparred with some of the new recruits. Eryx was known for his battle junkie attitude, always eager to test his limits and push others to theirs much like the guild master of the Berserker Guild.
His unique talent, Counter, allowed him to anticipate and neutralize attacks with ease; it worked by redirecting the force of an attack nearly ten times more powerful than it originally was.
Among the recruits was a tall, muscular man named Roland, whose brute strength was matched only by his clumsy footwork with a strength enhancement talent.
