Looking towards the people who had finally approved of Evans as their new chairman, Ark nodded lightly. He glanced at some people in silence.
“Is something wrong, Boss? Are you interested in recruiting them?”
“Nothing,” reply Ark relaxed.
Leon looked towards Ark who did not retaliate, only shrugged and did not think too much. Meanwhile, the other members were busy paying attention to the new group that was about to form. It seemed to have not thought much about what Ark would do. After all, they simply could not guess the way the chairman thought.
Ark stood up and began to announce.
“Because it has been decided, then this new group will be handled by Evans. While the vice chairman .. let Natalia take that position.”
Hearing Ark's words, many people immediately looked towards Natalia. The men seem to be upset because of the woman who was chosen as vice-chairman. While the women were jealous, they were envious because Hades seemed to be quite interested in the girl.
Natalia herself was also confused. Despite getting a good position, he also knew that there was nothing free in this world. This made the girl feel anxious. He wanted to reject the position, but did not dare to do so at all.
Natalia hates Sword of Sufferings and Evans. He wanted to know what was hidden in the dark. The girl wanted to find some questions that made her doubt. That was why he finally chose to be silent, preparing himself to accept everything.
Looking towards Ark who was staring at him, the girl could only grit her teeth in silence.
“Then I'll leave the rest to you, Evans.”
After saying that, Ark got up and left with his comrades. He planned to search for various food sources around the secret headquarters. After all, as living beings, they still needed food and water.
In addition, Ark also planned to search for some beasts to hunt. He tried his best so that his body could recover before a big battle occurred. The young man did not want to have any unknown risk factors when the war occurred.

About an hour later.
“I told you, I don't need your care at all.”
Natalia looked at Evans with an annoyed expression. Now the young man was treating the wound on his palm. Clean, treat, and then cover with a clean cloth.
Hearing Natalia who kept complaining, Evans could not help but say.
“Can you just shut up? You're too noisy. Though I thought that Saul or some experienced senior would be the vice-chairman of the branch. I don't know why Mr. Hades chose you, that's for sure ...
Since you are important, you should be well taken care of.”
After treating the girl's palms and legs, Evans carried her. Because so suddenly, Natalia immediately shouted. Many people look towards them. Resisting the embarrassment, the girl glared at Evans.
“What do you do?”
“Movemove. What else is it? Let you sunbathe to dry?”
“...” Natalia gritted her teeth.
“Don't think too much. All you have to do is do your job. No less, no more.”
Cuddled by Evans, Natalia is silent. While being taken away to the room to rest, the girl suddenly asked.
“Your strength is not normal. Did you get it from the Sword of Sufferings? Can we also get such power?” natalia said slowly.
“I don't know Mr. Hades' plan. But I'm sure, you guys definitely get that kind of power.”
“Why can you know?” natalia asked as she stared right in Evans' eyes.
Sensing that gaze, Evans smiled mysteriously. The young man then replied.
“Reclaration.”
***
Her night.
“What should I do then, Brother?”
“Do as you like.”
“Eh?” Evans' eyes widened. “You're kidding, aren't you, brother? I have no experience in leading. In addition, this also concerns the lives of many people.”
“I said, do as you please. All experience comes with practice. As for life? I don't care if they die. But you are different, if you care because you already know them ...
Then think everything well and make the right decision. Their lives are in your hands.”
“...”
Hearing her brother's reply so carelessly made Evans break out in a cold sweat. She knew that her brother was indeed indifferent and did not have much interest in worldly matters. However, thinking that he had to learn leadership by directly taking the lives of hundreds of people made Evans complain in his heart.
‘Teaching in this way ... too much, right?’
Evans took a deep breath. He knew that Ark would remain Ark. As whatever the young man complained, his brother wouldn't care so much. My brother has been like that since a long time ago. Either when getting bad grades when school, acting quite extravagant, and making some mistakes.
What makes Ark move usually when he is threatened. When he was hungry, the older brother would try to find something so he could eat. When he is hurt and bullied, the older brother will retaliate for him. Not only did it hit the children who hurt him, but it dared to fight with their older brother or even their parents.
‘If I remember, despite looking lazy and indifferent, it turns out that big brother also has a cruel side?’
Evans took a deep breath. If it's another naughty child, the way Ark spoils his sister might be able to mislead the younger brother. Whether Evans could have become that way because of the loss of his parents and was forced to become precocious, or indeed it was an inborn trait, he himself had no idea. That's for sure .. she's grateful that she's Ark's sister.
“Omong-by the way, are you interested in Natalia, Sis?”
After asking that, Evans turned his head towards his older brother. At the time, however, he could only see Ark looking at him like he was looking at a fool, or even a rare primate in the zoo.
“A-What's wrong?” ask Evans.
“Are you stupid?”
“...” Evans stunned.
Seeing his sister's expression, Ark shook his head.
“The reason why I chose Natalia as your character is not because of her appearance. Do you think I would be short of a woman if I wanted to find one?”
“...” Ark's speech was a bit arrogant and obnoxious, but Evans couldn't deny it.
“The reason why I chose that girl is because it can complete you.”
“Is that a legendary matchmaking or something, sister? Should- Ouch!”
Evans looked towards Ark who hit his head with a dumbfounded expression. Just then, a flat and dull voice sounded.
“Are you poisoning such things? Is your head filled with fields of beautiful flowers scattered or something? How come you can last so long with that kind of brain?”
“...”
For some reason, Ark's speech really felt like a knife stab. Evans felt pretty confident about his brain. Although the reason he had survived until now was the sacrifice of his friends and his luck, but the young man did not feel himself to be a fool.
“The reason why I chose him is because he is used to leadership. That girl can help you do more than anyone else who only has development potential. The experience is useful, so you have to learn a lot from it, and at the beginning ...
You can rely more on it.”
After that, Ark's voice grew increasingly cold.
“You must absorb various knowledge and take many things from either your own experience or others. That way, you can grow.
The strong prey on the weak, strengthen themselves by all means ..”
“That's how we can continue to survive.”
