That night, at the Sword of Sufferings headquarters.
After an all-out fight, the soldiers returning from the two zombie nests carry full backpacks. Hundreds of people actually brought a ton of ‘daging’ ready to be processed after returning. Home brings glory and victory.
While all the fighters instantly sent the harvest towards the production site, the people in charge of the assault mission gathered in the office after changing clothes and cleaning themselves up.
Seeing Ark sitting on the chairwoman with a lazy attitude, Lisa was the first to complain.
“Can't we report tomorrow? Today was really exhausting! While we were fighting desperately, you were actually lying in a place like this comfortably. This is overextended, Smell Chairman!”
“Sit only. Abigail is making tea. Take time to rest and catch your breath. From the expression on your face, it seems that there is something you want to report, right?”
“Expressions what! You even closed your eyes!” lisa said as she pointed at Ark with a dissatisfied face.
Ark himself sat leaning against the chairman's chair while closing his eyes. On her left and right sides, Kurona and Shirona were busy eating their snacks. It seems that they really enjoy a fun relaxing time.
Seeing Ark not responding, Lisa ended up sitting in her chair with an annoyed expression. As everyone sat down, the young man suddenly opened his mouth and said.
“Unless Mona is still stable and has not changed, it seems that this fight affects you a lot. Yeah ... That's not bad news.
Stacy, Draco, Leon, and Natasha. Level 3 potions will be prioritized to the four of you. Immediately break the level 4 limit. Don't disappoint me.”
Hearing that, the expressions of the four people looked excited. They stood up and saluted.
“Ya, Chairman!”
At that moment, Jay's voice sounded.
“Ark-“
“Don't complain, Jay. The chairman did not choose at all randomly. I haven't developed much in this fight. That's why I don't deserve it yet.”
Hearing Mona's words, Jay finally shut up. At first, she wanted to ask if her best friend was differentiating her lover. But after his rationality returned, he realized that Ark did everything based on the situation. Not on anyone's side at all.
“Wait!”
Just then, Lisa raised her hand then looked towards Ark with a serious expression. After thinking carefully about how to talk, the girl finally opened her mouth.
“You can't do that, Chairman Smell! The reason why Mona's sister is slowing down compared to the others is because she's less of a fight and more focused on teaching me about the command behind. Since time is lacking and there is no chance, I don't think that kind of thing is fair to Kak Mona, right?”
Ark shook his head lightly. The young man replied calmly, but did not change his decision.
“What Mona does is her own decision, and such affects the final result. What I saw was the result of everyone's development regardless of whatever factor it went through. You could say, Mona sacrificed this opportunity and chose to advance the next opportunity because of you.
If you want to blame someone, you have to blame yourself, Lisa. Besides, you should also think about Mona's feelings. Don't just talk without knowing anything.”
Hearing that, Lisa was surprised. Having a guilty expression on her face, the girl looked towards Mona with an apologetic expression. However, he was stunned in place when he saw the usually cold figure of Mona smiling gently towards him.
At that moment, Mona spoke again.
In my opinion, Lisa is actually quite talented when it comes to organizing troops, not just fighting on the front lines. With the training done slowly but surely, he could definitely become one of the most formidable generals under the Chairman. Lisa has the ability, so I think it would be a waste not to do it. I believe ... the girl can definitely do it.”
Hearing Mona's explanation, everyone looked towards Lisa with an expression of disbelief. For them, he would continue to be a little brother of bullies and liked to make trouble. Despite being strong, he was really careless and difficult to manage. According to Mona ... Can Lisa really be one of the best generals? That meant, there were among the three great generals under the Ark.
Such a thing was impossible in the eyes of all of them!
Feeling Mona's sincere gaze, Lisa felt moved. He wanted to say something, but words could not convey his gratitude. Just then, Ark's voice sounded in the room.
“You hear that, Lisa? Mona trusts you. So, I hope you won't let her down.”
Ark's words instantly made Lisa turn her head while answering firmly.
“Of course I won't let her down!”
Lisa's reply made Ark feel satisfied, but did not show it on his face. Opening his eyes, the young man then changed his sitting position. Stooping up his chin, he asked.
“Jadi ... now what do you want to tell me?”
The question instantly made Jay and Saito look at each other. Saito immediately gestured to Jay for the first time. The man nodded in response. Then he started explaining.
“Actually, on a zombie nest subjugation mission, we found a strange creature hidden in a room that is hard to find. We managed to finish him off and bring some examples back. We ... have never seen such a creature before.
The creature had a humanoid appearance, but its body was thin, stooped, and its skin was dark gray and filled with wrinkles. The creature had no hair all over its body. However, he had a pair of pointed ears, strange-looking round and large eyes, as well as a mouth full of sharp fangs.
It felt, it resembled a human born deformed, but it also resembled a ferocious beast. It looks so weird.
If you want to see her, I can ask people to bring her to this place. I also spoke to Saito. They also seem to have found the same creature. So-“
“I call it ghoul.”
Hearing Ark's words, everyone was immediately shocked. Before they could ask, the young man explained.
“Before I met him in another city. When you guys do missions in the other two nests, I also go to the lair that is in the hospital. After checking it, I also found the same thing.
According to my guess, the ghouls themselves are the descendants of the zombies. As you know, although the bodies of level 1 zombies can be considered damaged, as long as they level up higher, their bodies recover as well. Level 3 zombies already have their bodies intact, and I think the parasites have fused in their bodies completely. After that ... they can produce offspring.
Like you guys, those monster-like deformed creatures are their descendants.”
Looking towards the shocked people, Ark added.
“You must remember, in this chaotic world, it is not just humans trying to survive and continue to find a way by changing themselves. Out there, not just zombies, but there are definitely plenty of creatures that do the same thing to survive. So ...”
Ark's eyes flashed coldly, instantly making people nervous.
“Never be complacent.”
