A Little Desire Of Anti - Hero
Arc I - Chapter 46: Alert - 1
Everyone fell silent for quite a while after hearing Ernest's story. Either the form of thought that fills those people's heads, perhaps thinking about the power of the bandits being told, or perhaps feeling pity for the narrator.
Looking at Huge with a distant looking gaze, at the thing that was not in front of him for a moment, Ditch resuscitated his body. Brushing his chin, he tried to conclude before saying, “From Ernest's story it seems like they are at the gold level, but for the exact level we still can't confirm.”
Entering thinking mode as Ditch transcribes a few sentences on a piece of paper, stamps them with a yellow stamp, handing the scroll over to Huge before lowering the command.
“Huge go to squad one! Give them the scroll, I'll have them put down the bandits. I guess with their strength at gold level level level 1-3 it should be possible. Also ...,” Shifted his eyes to Ernest, Ditch continued, “Ernest you stay here!”
Although Huge is hesitant since on Ditch's second order. However, seeing that Ernest nodded albeit weakly, he finally replied, “Good Captain!”
Huge immediately left with heavy strides, along with a scroll from Ditch containing a warrant. He left Ditch and Ernest both in the room.
Seeing that Huge had completely disappeared late, Ditch's gaze changed completely like he was scanning Ernest from top to bottom. “Ernest, are you interested in joining the military?”
Ernest looked back at Ditch, he was really surprised at the offer. However, he immediately shook his head. Many of the underlying reasons for this began from him who could not bear the name of the battle, besides that .. the shadow of the heads of his two sisters rolling on the ground was still fresh in his head.
Getting the response he didn't want, Ditch sighed softly. “So so ...”
But he hasn't given up. “Ernest, try to meditate on this well because your mind may still not be clear because of the event. If you change your mind you can see me again. While time you can stay in the room southwest of barak.”
Looking at Ditch who was not behaving to the extreme over the rejection he gave, Ernest lowered his head. “Thank you.”
After saying so, Ernest began to step away leaving Ditch alone in the room. However, unbeknownst to him after his departure Ditch's calm expression fell.
According to Ditch's assessment, Ernest is the right person and has the potential to become a strategist. However he can withstand his emotions rising and falling quickly in such situations, to the point of being able to make a decision with a cool head at critical moments. Although not entirely accurate, but the decision has at least been calculated carefully without being affected by his emotions.
This can be seen when Ernest chose to leave his father and two younger siblings, although he himself was convinced that it was contrary to what Ernest felt at that time.
Although it seems inhumane for most people for him to say this kind of thing. However, Ernest was a cold-blooded person, he endured his grief to continue heading for the city, otherwise he would not be able to survive.
Considering this kind of temperament that was perfectly suited to accompany Huge, even though he himself was just a lowly soldier, Ditch knew that his ability exceeded that. Although there was a reason for him to be in his current position.
Roughly and without detailing any specific reasons, all because Huge had taken the wrong decision in a critical situation, and that was because he was carried away by his ignited emotions.
Staring at the ceiling of this room, Ditch closed his eyes for a moment before plunging back into this written work. However, his mind was hopeful.
‘May no more talented figure who goes out and can not show the light.’
Of course, this hope was not just for Ernest and Huge.

Inside one of the buildings rented by Overflow in Dee City.
In the atmosphere of his perceived path, the door of the room suddenly opened with a polite voice accompanying. Although the action was too late considering he had entered Gadi's room.
However, Gadi did not scold the man. After all the person who had now entered the room was one of his direct subordinates, and naturally he had allowed this kind of action.
Opening his mouth, Gadi began to ask, “What are there needs to see me David?”
Right, the person who was facing Gadi was David, one of them who started a conflict with Rion at the bar and the inn.
“There are important things that I need to tell you Gadi,” Seeing that Gadi nodded, David continued.
He began to tell what he had experienced at the bar, of course all that after going through ‘sikit’ polish that was exaggerated. Even so, the main content regarding him being humiliated by a black-haired young man and a silver-haired girl did not change.
Although it was a day late because yesterday he could not meet Gadi, but David had a happy smile in his heart, imagining the revenge that would be received by the two people. However, Gadi's expression became bad and hot steam was seen billowing from him.
“Are you crazy?!”
Unlike David's conjecture, it was far from what he expected. Gadi even spewed anger at him.
Figuring out why in mind, he finally remembered that a few days ago had been told to each member to better maintain their attitude, and that was no exception!
Recalling his behavior, he realized that it had been the opposite of what was requested and that it made cold sweat start dripping from him.
Not wanting to waste his time on this kind of business, Gadi also threw David away from the reach of his eyes. Get him out of the way without a word of defense.
However, after his head cooled down, Gadi realized something. ‘Didn't the characteristics of the person who had trouble with David and the person in question Wonder the same?’
The black-haired youth and the silver-haired girl, Gadi felt it was a characteristic feature. After all, even people with such traits were not many in the Zestia Continent, especially people with silver-colored hair. For that young man, even in the Sylius Continent itself only the Satific Republic had residents with such traits, but the country itself did not participate in the attack on the Zestia Continent.
With all the above factors, and the least common similarity factors that can occur, Gadi pondered and had no intention of taking any movement at all. The other risk factor in this case is too great.
Not really wanting to risk anything that could make his position falter, he started walking to Lech's place. “I think it's better to report it to Lech. If this guy is really the young man that is meant by Wonder this is not a problem that I can handle myself.”
However, on his usual quiet afternoon trip in Dee City, Gafi saw a group of military soldiers marching in front of the gate that was also the attention of the citizens.
Gadi did not know what the military was doing. However, he had an unpleasant feeling about this.
Led by a soldier who seems to be a leader (?). They walked in an orderly and orderly manner heading out of the city of Dee.
However, not only Gadi who noticed this as an unusual thing. Far from his place, in an inn a silver-haired girl also saw this from a window along with a faint smile that was now hanging on her lips.
“The first part seems to have been completed. Now, will this start going into the next section? I hope everything is as I had anticipated before ..” he murmured hoping.
