TOK! TOK! TOK!
"Who!?"
Kazuto, who just drifted to his sleep, opened his and jumped back instinctively while looking around with vigilance.
Then, he only saw Kidd, Rozho, and Rekka who had just woken up due to the series of loud knocking sound albeit with less intense reactions than him.
Caleb stood up, use his spiritual perception to probe behind the door and said. "Wait, let see who it is..."
As his spiritual perception spread around and covered the entire vicinity. He saw a man in his 20s wearing a scout uniform.
Is there sothing? Caleb subconsciously thought of his bad feeling all this while. His danger sense won't get stimulated out of nowhere, right? So, Caleb imdiately opened the door and said:
"Co in..."
Rozho and the other brought their weapons down and visibly relaxed as they saw that it was a fellow scout. However, they wonder why soone would co to them now when they didn't take on any mission. They intend to rest for a week.
The man in his 20s entered briskly. He has long eyelashes, sharp eyebrows akin to a blade, brown eyes, a slightly curved nose and wide forehead. He panted for a few monts and wiped the sweat on his forehead. Then, opened his mouth and said with a dry voice. "C-captain n-eeds you to co to his o-f-fice." He struggled to form words coherently due to his heavy breathing.
"Calm down, won't you?" Caleb sighed, then he went to the dirty kitchen and gave the man a glass of water, which the man took and drank in one gulp. "A group... No, a legion of unknown people breached and invaded the district of nobles and the royal family!"
"..."
Rozho, Rekka, Kazuto, Kidd, and even Caleb stared at the guy with a strange expression. A legion of people? Not to ntion, attack the 5th and 6th district? Who's crazy enough to do such a thing!? They don't believe it!
Caleb, on the other hand, caught a keyword on the guy's words. "Unknown? So it's not a rebellion..."
Seeing not believing on what he said made the man frustrated for a mont. Although he knew that it was hard to believe... It had really heppened! 'Damn these kids!'
If Johan wasn't in here and they were other kids, he would have already beaten them to the ground. Alas, Johan was quite well known to have the strength to defeat ten elite Destiny in the sa realm as him. No one even knows the full extent of his capabilities except for his teammates.
"Just follow . This is urgent!"
"Let's go. Although I want to rest. I don't want my asly contribution points to get deducted." Kidd urged.

"The fifth district and sixth district were attacked by an organization of a vampire called Laughing Phantom. They had been a problem for hundreds of years now. They were most active at night. However, they were not that big of a problem as they just attack in four or five at most. But now, no one had expected that their numbers to reach such a degree. They are comparable to an army!" David said in one breath and looked at the twenty teams; veterans and new recruits. It was the total number of teams of the whole regint. He took a deep breath with solemn expression and continued: "I classify this as an S-rank mission! This is essentially a war between two races! Now, it is in our hands if the one that stands at the food chain would be us. Once we lose, we will beco slaves. I'll personally participate with this mission this ti!"
'They finally made their move. So they're the source of my bad feeling? Fair enough...'
Caleb clicked his tongue as he heard the Laughing Blood. After all, he just fought one of their mber during the expedition and he was curious about them for a while now.
"What? Vampires? Those bastards resurfaced again!? Didn't their last appearance ten years ago?" An old veteran who had been a mber of Scout Regint for half of his life lost his composure. He could still rember the days when he had fought them along with his teammates. But it had too long that he almost forgot them. He had even thought that they were already extinct. "Who would have thought that they would appear once again!?" A fire was rekindled in his pupils as he thought of his friends and his teammates that from the vampires' fangs.
However, he didn't expect their numbers to grow exaggeratedly. As he thought of missing people for the past 15 years. He managed to connect that dot. The vampire were waiting for this all this while. They hid themselves and grew their number. Now, they intend to rule the city once and for all and beco the ruler in one fell swoop!
"Fuck! Fighting blood sucker vampires? Let in! Let's see, they're really that strong! I'll let them see the difference between a normal human and Destiny!" A black-haired teenager clenched his fist.
On his side, Kazuto shook his head with exasperation. "You do not understand, are you? This is a war. War is cruel. Not to ntion, we will fight an army of them!! This is even harder than fighting those mindless apokalips outside the gate. Vampires are as intelligent us humans. No, they might even be craftier because of their long lives."
"Hmph! What's the deal with you? Are you perhaps scared? Then you don't need to participate. There's no need for a scaredy cat like you." The guy said in disdain, curled up his lips and spat.
Suddenly, soone patted Kazuto on the shoulders. When Kazuto turned around, he saw that it was Monica. The only woman in the team ten. "Don't mind Zangwill. He's rude all the ti."
Kazuto smiled warily. 'I know...'
David cleared his throat to get the attention of the scouts who started the commotion. "Don't worry. Since this is the fifth S-rank class mission since the founding of our regint. It ans that the rewards correspond to its danger. For every Tier 9 vampire head. You will gain 10,000 contribution points. For every Tier 8 head, 50,000! For every Tier 7, 1,000,000 points! Tier 6, 10,000,000 points! Of course, I don't expect you guys to kill Tier 6 as that was beyond your capabilities. However, the battlefield is unpredictable. Even I could die if I'm not careful enough."
'I'll be damned!'
Caleb felt dizzy when he heard the astronomical rewards! Kill Tier 6? Ten million damn points? He didn't know about others. But he might be able to actually do that with enough preparations! At the very least, Tier 7 won't be a problem. Then, as long as he kills 10 Tier 7. That will still be 10 million! As he calculated on his head. Caleb began to feel excitent.
