15 The reason for a hunter’s existence
" Welco to the Command room"
Of course, Alex’s attention was drawn to the environnt in front of him, which was hard to believe.
" You will need this, take it with you and don’t eat it."
The General took out a package of candy and gave it to Alex. It looked like the kind you rarely found in regular stores in the city. Just from the packaging, it was easy to tell that the product was high-class.
"What should I do with these sweets?"
The entire room was filled with about 100 employees, among them only a few were hunters and when they saw everyone, despite being surprised, they all went ahead to greet them in the most polite way possible, without failing to fulfill their duties.
"Mana Natacha, what are you doing here?"
"Felix, didn’t I tell you not to call by my na at work?"
"Understood general, what have you brought this ti?"
Felix’s brown eyes looked like they would light up an entire district with their brightness.
The general took a bag of candy and gave it to Felix, who jumped for joy. Without wasting any more ti, he opened it and began to taste the sweets right there.
"Mana Natacha, thank you very much. Mana, who is that behind you? "
All the general could do was sigh, she had already made the necessary correction, but in this way, even if brilliant, Felix was just a boy.
"He’s a recruit I found causing trouble, so I decided to bring him here to play with you, how about that?"
To Alex’s surprise, Felix’s bright eyes were turned towards him with his hands raised, only when the general reminded him did he finally understand.
Alex took the bag of candy he had saved and kindly gave it to little Felix, whereupon the latter jumped for joy and stuffed his mouth with candy.
"Thank you very much your majesty, these sweets are very good"
Alex could barely understand what Felix was saying because his mouth was full of sweets.
Alert! Alert! Alert
Before Alex could question the form in which he was summoned, the huge holographic skates displayed red Alert signs.
"What do you hear, Feles?"
The general’s voice rang out loud and clear, everyone focused on identifying the problem, Felix took the lead, operating the central panel.
"General , we have a dungeon breach in District 9."
The central panel displayed an area with several monsters passing through a red-tinted dungeon portal.
"What’s the status, I want a summary and complete report of the area and the dungeon?"
At the generals’ request, everyone quickly gathered all the information about the dungeon and the district in question, Alex was the first to speak with a naturalness that defied his apparent age.
"General, the dungeon was under the guardianship of the White Tiger Guild."
Increasing the speed at which he clicked on the keyboard, Alex continued saying
"The military has already been dispatched, they arrived in 5 minutes"
"Quickly, send a mandatory appearance notice to the hunters near that district, they must evacuate the population to a safe zone."
"Establishes communication with the designated pilot"
Quickly after a second, several screens displayed the military who rushed in their trucks towards District 9.
"Create a periter around the dungeon gate, collaborate with the hunters for the safety of the common citizens"
"As you wish, my general "
On the other side of the holographic screen, the military shouted in unison as they rushed to the scene.
"How can there be a dungeon break out of nowhere, why didn’t the white tiger request help from the association or another guild if they are not capable of clearing the dungeon? " The general seed visibly annoyed with the situation.
"General, feeling the punctuation sent by them, the dungeon had already been cleared a few days ago, the thirty day period had not yet expired for the dungeon to restart."
One of the employees at the site spoke hurriedly
"Then what the hell am I looking at? Felix"
"General"
"Analyze the veracity of this score, and call on team c to deal with this quote"
"General , the score is legitimate, the team that is currently urinating"
A teams are currently in a state of ergency and those available are too far away to respond to the ergency."
Hearing the citation report, the beautiful general took only a second to assemble a team in her mind.
"Summon a wizard who can use long-distance teleportation, Bring Joana and Arnaldo here"
The general looked at Alex and smiled slightly.
"Félix shapeshifts and take Alex to change, you’ve been locked in here for a long ti."
"Sis, why ? Don’t send out there, please. The monsters are too scary."
"Felix, we don’t have ti for your tantrums, quickly change shape and get ready to leave, Arnaldo will be your leader, what are you worrying about?"
The general kicked Alex out of his chair, landing right next to Alex.
"Mana Natacha, please spare , we currently have 48 Mission teams, I must stay to coordinate the , it’s not like there is another genius like "
"Idiot, that’s not exactly why I’m sending you on this pissing spree, I need your genius brain to figure out why a dungeon that was already cleared had a rupture out of nowhere."
"General, I just joined the association, is it okay to participate in on my first day?"
"Don’t worry, you will be under the protection of the sword saint."
"Your Majesty, it’s better to do what your sister tells you, otherwise we’ll suffer a lot."
"Your Majesty? Why are you treating this way?"
"I can see your majesty’s attribute window, your class is unique, King of Calot"
"Is it a skill?... "
"Go now, people are dying, do you want to hold you two responsible?
Felix, who until then looked like an 8-year-old child, began to grow at a visible rate until he reached adulthood in just a few steps, Alex’s eyes were wide with disbelief.
"What are you looking at? Your Majesty, have you never seen soone growing before?"
Before Alex could respond, the general’s crimson eyes exuded coldness, reminding them of the urgency of the situation. The two hurried to leave the operations room. Together with the staff, the general began to coordinate and extrude about 48 teams that were on a mission at the ti.
***
As Alex and the now adult Felix leave, they find more people waiting for them, two of whom Alex recognizes from having seen them before.
Now Alex wore the sa suit that all mbers of the hunters’ association usually wear, of course what he wore despite displaying the sa design was a specific one for Mission , it was made with striated materials from the dungeons.
"Turn on your caras and you can proceed with urinating."
"You must clear the dungeon and find out what caused the breach ."
"Understood"
Arnaldo responded relaxedly
"Please join hands so I can begin teleportation."
The magician who used her authority over space to initiate a collective teleportation, in this way, Joana, Félix, Arnaldo and Alex disappeared around a white flash.
"Newbie, let introduce myself, I’m Arnaldo the sword saint, Joana and I were your father’s students, since this is your first Mission, just stay behind with Félix, Joana and I will take care of everything, understood?"
"Yes ma’am"
"Don’t call that, I’m not your boss, we’re all teammates here, just call by my na."
The group of 4 people went to the area where the military had set up a garrison
"Hey, where did you go? I waited a long ti for you in the combat room." Joana asked Alex in a low voice, showing curiosity.
"It’s a long story, I’ll tell you later." Alex rembered the experience he had earlier and decided not to think about it too much and focus on the Mission in front of him.
"You guys, this is a restricted area, you can’t go any further."
Two ard soldiers detained the sword saint group
"Relax, we are from the hunters’ association, we ca to help you with this Mission." Arnaldo presented his credentials, Alex and the others did the sa.
"Saint of the sword, forgive us our rudeness, we just..."
"Relax officer, you’re just doing your job, however, can we co in?"
"Of course, please co in."
The group of four continued moving forward until they reached a large tent that was built on the rubble of a store that was completely destroyed.
Alex looked around, the destruction around was remarkable, several buildings had completely collapsed, the military and so civilians, working with the dical brigade, collected the corpses, so killed by the rubble and others were devoured and completely destroyed by the monsters.
The screams of mourners filled the place, mothers and fathers lost their children, children lost parents and friends, Alex looked at a little girl who was crying for her dead mother and father, she held a stuffed doll as she cried and struggled to try and see the corpses of her parents.
The father who no longer had the strength to work now looked at the corpse of his son, the only one who provided him with any sustenance, now that the only person who took care of him was dead, what would beco of the poor old man.
Alex saw the old man citing regret for the son who sacrificed himself to save his poor father, even when he had asked him to abandon him to save his life, the father’s guilt extended filling Alex’s coercion.
"Newbie, keep this scenario in mind, this is the reason we hunters exist, it is to avoid this type of quote"
The sword saint’s eyes were firm and resolute, giving weight to his words.
"We don’t exist to get rich in dungeons, we exist to protect those who can’t protect themselves, you understand"
