The Commander General sighed and then considered everything, "We will still have to keep trying to decipher the message. So the tournament is soon." Cephas stood up and spoke, "I believe that this meeting has run its natural course. I'll be leaving now Benedict." He started to walk past the Generals before one of the Major Generals, "General Cephas, I believe that you assaulted a fifth year. He happened to be my student."
Cephas walked out not even answering the question and closed the door behind him to see his honor guard and Benedict's honor guard talking about their experiences. They stood ready for Cephas' eventual exit and Kumar followed. He spoke and his Cephas turned to look at him."How did the meeting go?" Cephas grumbled, "Shit." Kumar spoke once more and asked, "What was it about?" Cephas turned fully to look at Lieutenant General Kumar and he didn't want to talk about it he was a good friend. "East Fortside intercepted a suspicious message concerning Red Sails communicating with their smaller branches and encrypting the code."Lunar sighed and chuckled, "Sounds like a long day." Cephas then started to walk and he said, "Sound like a long day but I want to get the fuck out of here." The honor guard started to walk and he told Second Lieutenant Juila to run ahead and prep the ship. He wanted to leave as soon as possible and he didn't want to return. "The students were snobby and bratty and don't know how to honor people."Cephas remarked as he walked into the elevator and started going down. He didn't speak a single word not even to Kumar. He hated his original post and didn't want to spend a second longer. They started to walk out as Beraslav saw and saluted him. He walked past and the door to the ship's landing pads opened. They walked up the stairs to the platform which was a pathway to the different landing bays.They walked to pad 55 and as the ship's engine started and the side door opened. Julia helped Kumar and Cephas into the ship as the Captain and the rest of the honor guard got through the back. Kumar closed the door side doors as she started to take off. The back exit closed automatically as the ship was still levitated.The communication officer patched and said, "UTL-2673 you are clear to leave." The ship started to go forward and jetted across the sky leaving a white trail. "The upcoming tournament?" One member of the honor guard spoke and Cephas turned his head to look at the member. "Shut the fuck up. Don't try make small talk." Kumar said with a smile whilst adjusting his glasses.The ride was silent and after some time the ship landed back on Acnefera. The honor guard captain opened the door as he stepped out and Cephas and Kumar followed. The rest of the honor guard followed them back to Cephas' officer. Kumar departed and went back to his office."What should we do with the wall?" Huro asked the rest of his company, "I think we should sell it." Stas looked to the rest of the members and some nodded whilst Seth disapproved. He seemed to be the only one who had any remorse for killing Dante but no one seemed to share his point of view. "We should sell it to the company willing to buy it for the highest price." Seth looked disgusted at his company's morality. "We should bid it for a quick Carry. Do you not have remorse?" Sylvia laughed and spoke, "We didn't kill him. Why should we feel bad?" Seth spoke, "It's like you are pure evil."Stas interjected, "Shut up your pussy." Huro nodded, "I think we should sell it. We can sell it for a lot." Seth walked out and would question the morality of the company but 30 minutes later he would come back and sit down. He was renewed. He didn't feel that remorseful.4 months passed away like a flash. It was quick. Stas changed his hairstyle to a high top and he liked it. He walked into the gat
"In the tournament, I got third. Sylvia didn't even qualify." Stas spoke and turned his head slowly to him, "I need strategies, not power." Seth then retorted with a simile, "If you had a problem with it leave!" Seth stopped speaking despite being correct. A man with blonde hair and an insignia of a Specialist walked and sat down and by now the time was 8 am. "So what's been happening?" Stas spoke and informed the engineer."Seth says he should be the Vice Commander of my company." The engineer looked at Master Sergeant Stas dumbfounded, "He should. It shouldn't even be a debate or a discussion. Seth could even beat you in a fight. Does it hurt to be cold?" Stas then raised his voice a bit higher at the start of the sentence. "That is beside the point, it's my company and I control it." Stas declared. Seth then spoke, "Corruption? Got it." Stas chuckled at the remark as he went to the big monitor. The generals discussed at the table and Kumar sat directly next to Cephas. The table wa
After a couple of minutes and the time was 8.10 am, Samuel appeared in front of Magnus and spoke, "Hello brother." He looked identical to Voll but he was taller and had a full beard. He was wearing shorts and a blue t-shirt. He walked in with Magnus and sat down next to him. The General Officers were completely and utterly shocked that he arrived in less than 5 minutes."Sir!" Cephas got up from his chair and bowed to Samuel and half of the General Officers bowed down to him. The other half of the General Officers were confused. They didn't know what he had done or how much power he had. "Son of Vollatomic. Seen one before." Saldis said without a care. Cephas turned to her and was about to yell."Damion, no need for formalities." Cephas got up and walked back to his seat before speaking to Samuel, "Well, the reason why we have asked for your assistance, is there is a code that was transmitted from Red Sails Headquarters in Bennett Field to the Red Sails Acneferan branch. Its code was
The garage door opened and a bus came out but the destination board was still blank. This confused Dante as he was sure this was the bus to Lennox Field. The destination board started to change cycling through the destinations until it started to slow. The destination board now read 'Bus 70 to Townsend' He started to walk to the 70 bus stop as the bus pulled in and opened the door.He walked on pressing his student pass on the card reader. Then he walked to the back of the bus where he sat down. The bus driver got out of his booth and walked up to him. The bus driver spoke, "Get off! You are clearly not a child." Dante looked at him and spoke, "I am a child I was born in 2211." The bus driver was getting red and was on the verge of yelling. "GET OFF MY BUS!" Dante just looked at him, "No fuck you pig." The bus driver started yelling, "Just drive the bus. You aren't getting paid anyway, you lazy slob." The bus driver realise he couldn't yell Dante into leaving, got back into the bus c
"If you are number 4, then transform." She laughed as she started to grow in size, her skin turning grey and rock-like, her eyes becoming black with red pupils and long horns. He was shocked to see that it was number 4 and he spoke, "So my original question, where are the company rooms... I don't actually know your name."She laughed and spoke, "My name is Retha Caro, and follow me." They started to walk together toward a building, it was the central building but it didn't have as many floors as the headquarters. It only had 2 floors whilst the rest of the buildings had 7 floors. The ground floor of the central building had 2 elevators and a set of stairs leading down. On the second floor was the General Officer, the base of operations called Lennox. He followed Retha down the stair and then asked her, "Why?" She then asked, "Why what?" Dante took in a deep breath and then asked, "Why didn't you turn me over to the school? Why did you only wait till I hurt your friends to spring into
"What happened? Why do you need my help that Rama couldn't deal with it?" Rama looked downcast and so did the rest of the company. Rama started to think back to the time when this happened and Isak started to recollect the events and started explaining them. "We were at a battle and we were being overpowered."Flashback: "This is The Conquerors. We are under assault and Rama is out of commission, we need backup immediately." He spoke as a company responded, "We are the Crimson Dynasty. We are a minute away but the help won't come free." Isak picked back up his phone and spoke, "What is it then?" The girl on the other end laughed, "You will be indebted to us." Isak considered it. It was the destruction and death of his teammates or saving them for a price. He accepted the deal. The company arrived with them branding arm braces that spelled out, 'Crimson Dynasty.' Present day: "They started to overwhelm the Squad of Revolutionaries and with their help, we won." Dante took all of this i
"Which bus are we getting on first?" Retha asked as she pulled out her mask and stared at it. It was now black with a golden 4. Dante spoke, "We get on the 73 to Summer Row then we go to the Dove Wester station. We go Eastbound to Bastion Mouth." Retha was satisfied with the answer and she pulled out her phone.Dante pulled out his phone and started to type, 'Also when I return, I need my hammer back. Where is it?' The message when through but he wasn't expecting an immediate response so he put a headphone jack into his phone and started playing music. He was at ease.They waited for the bus for around a minute before it pulled into the stop. The bus was nearly empty except for 3 or 4 passengers, they walked to the very back of the bus and sat down on the blue seats. The doors closed and the bus driver pulled out of the bus stop, the bus started to cruise down the bus lane. The bus got to the end of the road and stopped at a traffic light.The light was red, then it turned amber then
"We are the greatest company alive!" A man who was shrouded in shadows declared to a group of 6 people. They all stood around waiting for their orders, "And as the greatest company alive. We should be the very best and we will never surrender. We need money to fund a war! We need to do missions." The men roared as the symbol of the Direct Sons was visible behind their leader."The Stas Company will be our next hit. It will cause the Huro Company to spring into action." The men roared in excitement. They ran out of the room and the leader sat shrouded in the darkness, he signed. Stas laughed as the rest of the Huro Company sat around. Then they picked up a transmission from a someone. It was a group transmission and Danye would take note. "This is West Seaside Headquarters in Acnefera." The girl declared to the Companies. "I am Brigadier General Sitora. Your companies said it was open to missions and we want to send you on a mission to Townsends Primary."All of the companies would qu
"Stop using that paper-thin ability and fight me fairly." She just looked at him with a smile as she laughed, "Or I'll burn you alive." She looked more serious now as he spoke, She got ready and using her paper-thin power glided past Stas' punches, She then hit Stas in the face, Stas' head moved back as he asked, "Why do you always start some great speech about being a champion of the Balbin Clan? Every time. Even back in Elementary.""Is it because I rejected you in year 5?" She gritted her teeth, "Stop trying to get me angry." She walked in front of Stas and hit him again in the chest this time, "Is that why you started working out?" She punched Stas even harder now, causing him to stagger, "Shut up." Stas walked back up to her and tried to punch her but as she dodged, his fist burst into flames burning her clothes. Stas looked at the fire, more intrigued but she tried to jump up and punch him in the face, he blocked with one hand and punched with his left. The punch was hot, causi
Olivia walled off the stage to see Dante panting as had neck trauma but nothing too life-threatening. He spoke in a raspy voice as she turned her body towards him, "Do you think?" He coughed profusely, "That if you got angry could Isak calm you down?" She considered it with a smile before she spoke, "Of course, he could." Dante smiled as her face became one of confusion, "Yeah because you would do anything for him." Dante laughed as she become grim she took a step towards him, "Don't fucking mock me." She grew in size to ten and a half feet tall. "Don't swear at me I am your Commander." She looked even more annoyed as she grew to 15 feet and 9 inches tall."Chill," Dante said with a smile as she grabbed him by the body Stas walked up behind Olivia, "Would you mind putting Dante down?" She looked at him then growled as she then bear hugged Dante and attempted to German Suplex. Dante using his fast thinking phased from her arm and onto the ground.As she tried to do this Isak walked up
The other matches finished as the other contestants ran off scared. Olivia got back up and towered over Retha, the fear was starting to get to Retha as she roared again as more fire came spewing from her mouth. It hit her again and was now doing less damage, Retha dashed at her tackling her and started to pummel Olivia in the ground as she used her Demon magic to stop her from growing in size and strength.Olivia using her size to her advantage flipped over and kicked Retha into the ground as she rolled, Olivia started to grow in size again she grew twice in one event and grew to the monstrous size of 53 feet tall. Retha was now terrified as she punched Olivia's gut but it had no effect as Olivia grabbed and bear-hugged the much smaller Retha and bent over backwards, German suplexing her into concrete. Olivia laughed as Retha's size was too small to keep up with so she evolved into her last form, her most powerful form meant taking over the third hell from her father. She grew to a s
After some time the first eight matches concluded and the next 16 jumped into the cage, the most notable match was Retha vs Olivia. They stepped up to the cage as Olivia got into a fighting pose and Retha transformed into her strongest demon form. It looked like an actual demon with claws, horns and fires at the end of her horns. Her skin was pale and she was 10 feet tall.Olivia looked up at Retha with Retha looked down at Olivia. The referee yelled, "Begin." As Olivia went on her guard as Retha walked over to the giant and gut-punched Olivia. Olivia coughed up spit as she clutched at her stomach, she finally recomposed herself more angry than before.Her pupils vanished as she grew inside becoming more muscular and powerful becoming the same size as Retha. Olivia pulled back her fist and punched Retha in the face making her stumble back. Olivia then swept Retha's leg, dropping her. Retha looked annoyed being put on her back but Retha got up.Retha tried to kick Olivia's stomach but
"What do you know about strength anyways, Ana? Judging by the marks on your necks and the possibility of you being able to teleport and fly, you were burned. Maybe you weren't able to register what occurred meaning the person was too fast for you to even react to. If I keep prying you will cry." She looked at him with anger in her eyes and glared at him."So if the person was able to move so fast, you couldn't think properly and was left open. Did you come into contact with one of the Holzer clan?" She looked at Dante and chuckled as a loud explosion came from one of the cages. It was Abels, who stood atop another student. The student was unconscious, "Next time get someone capable to fight me," He yelled angrily.Ana looked at Abels with disgust and spoke in an annoyed tone, "I hate people like him, cocky, overconfident and plain annoying. I remember the first mission I was on, A third-year captain, now a first-year Colonel was commanding a mission and told me to step back and he wou
"So, you became friends with the guy who made an attempt on your life? You should have made him suffer as you did." Dante sighed now sat down, "I tried but I was killed protecting two of my Officers." She raised an eye to his response, " Died? I thought you were stronger?" Dante looked at her with a solemn expression. "Apparently, the attack was supposed to make their hearts blow up. So I split my power amongst them and I took the attack. My heart blew up and I died. But instead of staying dead, my family has a way of cheating death."Flashback: Five months ago, 2222.Dante stretched out his arm as the laser came in a zigzag, and the attack hit. Dante panted heavily as a squelching sound came from his chest. He fell on his back feeling significantly weaker, Rama and Isak ran over to their weakened commander who was laid out on the ground. "I used my intangibility to save you but I could save myself. I'll only live for the next couple of seconds. Use this opportunity to run and I will
"Alright, I get the point." She blinked slowly and sighed, "I think they are about to start the tournament." She sat up as a Red Sail Lieutenant moved to the stand and spoke to the General of the Army and Special Forces, Ana. "My Commander, why did you come here, you still have not told me."She gave him a disgusted look, "I told you to guard the flagship not try to chat me up." He sighed as she stood up, "For your insolence, I will punish you right now." Magnus looked at Ana with an eyebrow raised as she was about to slap the lieutenant. "Ana, he is not that important, please just enjoy the tournament."He then looked at the Lieutenant, "Run along and guard the ship now." Ana sat back down as Voll stood back up and walked off the platform back to the 8 cages. She then signalled to one of the security guards as he got closer, she spoke, "Is there a person called 'Dante Tobias' here?" The security guard opened his phone and looked through the applicant list. "I believe he should be. Sh
"5,471!" Julia yelled as the other personnel conversed amongst themselves. The pink hair girl stood up enraged and screamed, "HE CHEATED! HE WAS IN HIS TRANSFORMED STATE HE THREW A PUNCH. I thought it was RAW STRENGTH." Julia considered this for 3 seconds as a door burst open and heavily armoured men with canons on their right arm walked in. Their insignia was a golden trident encased in a black circle. On the circle was 'TITAN COMMODORE' in big, bold, white letters. The trident was extended onto the circle. The men were carrying massive guns which looked like futuristic rifles but the rifles had two modes, a flamethrower mode and a taser mode.They had helmets which had mouth covers with goggles which were tinted black. They were wearing military helms. Their leader pointed to areas where they should be stationed. The men secured the back of the room and hugged the walls. "Well, we did ask for the full power of punches without the direct use of power." The girl was enraged by Julia'
The guy looked downcast and started to walk away until Stas spoke up, "Wait, Reset the machine!" Julia looked at Stas before turning it off and on again to reveal a score of 2093. The room was shocked and he smiled as he read the score, "If we add 12+10+2093 divided by 3 we get a score of 705, so contestant number 85. You move on to the starting rounds of the tournament."The lean tall guy looked at Stas with a smile stretching from cheek to cheek, "Thank you, sir. I have finally gotten somewhere because of you, sir." Stas looked at him with a confused face and raised eyebrow, "Gotten somewhere?" The guy was still smiling as he bobbed up and down slowly. He spoke, "Because of you I move on to the tournament and have a chance to get promoted. I am still a private because every time someone stole the limelight. Thank you, sir." Stas smiled as number 85 walked away cheerfully."That was certainly interesting," Seth commented as he sat down matches passed for around an hour, and after the
