Chapter 12: C12 Assembly

"Now let's go to the awaited part of the assembly. Everyone, help me welcome the principal of camp 03-355, Colonel Lucas Doornbos," Captain Laura said with a voice filled with admiration and began clapping her hands enthusiastically.

After the introduction, a man with a black sword strapped on his back walked imposingly from the doors of the arena into the stage. His presence silenced the trainees. All their eyes were glued onto him.

Allen, too, looked at him and could feel that he was strong. He could tell that the man could resist the meager divine energy that he has with him right now. The man could kill him at any moment that he likes. Their strength is wide apart.

This urged Allen to find a way to earn more divine energy. During the past days, he had not found anyone that could become his follower. But this can't be helped.

"How are you all. Everything that I want to say was already said by Captain Laura. So, I will just say, that I will wait for you at the peak," Colonel Lucas said.

Then he raised his sword upward and roared, "together let us fight for humanity. Let's take our weapons to behead our enemies, kill all the demons and devour all the beasts."

Allen admired him. The few words that he said ignited the spirits of the trainees.

*Applause!*

Strength is indeed very useful at all times. With these, Allen had decided that he will no longer hesitate and will initiate a new plan.

The assembly was short but everyone was pumped up. They went back to their dorm with their blood boiling. But some also no longer hesitated and took the janitorial job while gritting their teeth. They said unto themselves that this is only temporary, they will get back to those who'll laugh at them with a slap of success.

At night, Allen stealthily went to the rooftop of the dormitory. He was now prepared to use some of his divine energy to get more. He created another divine item. This item is the eye of the spirit. It is used for scouting. It looked like a firefly, though small, it was very convenient. Moreover, the eye of the spirit is very stealthy.

Allen wanted the eye of the spirit to look for someone that was lost, so he could bring them to the light.

After doing that, he went back into his room.

On the same night, the A.I. of the camp reported that there is a missing trainee.

"Five trainees failed to return to the camp," the emotionless voice of an A.I. resonated in the room.

"Show me their names," Captain Laura demanded. Then a hologram-like screen appeared in front of her. And one of the names is Jeremy Baume.

This case is not new in the camp. This happen many times. Some trainees overestimated their strengths and died in the claws of their, supposed to be prey.

Half a day later…

Jeremy is one of the trainees of the camp. He had awakened an ability, he can control and summon lightning at will. His ability is stronger than most of his peers.

Jeremy had decided to take a mission not for credits but to train himself. Ever since he arrived at the camp he was already eager to do missions. But he was not sure about the strength of the beasts but when he heard what Captain Laura said, he made up his mind. He thought that he should not be afraid to do missions since the missions on the mission hall were low-levels.

Jeremy took a mission to hunt a Red-Eyed Wolf. One Red Eyed Wolf is equal to two Military Credits. He journeyed to the location that his watch told him and arrived at the den of the Red-Eyed Wolves. A few hours later.

Jeremy rested for a while, then he started attacking the beasts. There are twenty Red-Eyed Wolves in the den. He succeeded in killing all of them but unbeknownst to him, they were the weak ones.

The Red Eyed Wolf King arrive and saw Jeremy on the corpses of its kin. The Red Eyed Wolf King loved its kin. Since ancient times wolves always cared for the members of their pack. It was enraged and attacked him with full force. At that moment, Jeremy felt fear and despair. His spiritual strength was already used and was nearly depleted by the killing the twenty Red-Eyed Wolves. The Red Eyed Wolf King is fiercer and stronger than the ones he'd slain. But all of a sudden, his spiritual energy burst, and he experienced enlightenment. His spiritual energy returned to its peak and increased by a considerable amount. At that time, he was delighted and became overconfident with himself.

Jeremy summoned a flash of lightning from the skies and shot it towards the Red Eyed Wolf King. The lightning is not like the other lightning that he used in the past. It

The lightning swooped down from the sky at an incredible speed towards the Red Eyed Wolf King. The beast was not able to dodge and received the lightning head-on and was roasted to death by the lightning.

Jeremy smiled and felt proud of himself. But then he realized that he had consumed more than half of his spiritual energy. He relaxed his exhausted body and sat down crossed-legged.

*flap* *flap* *flap* *flap*

Then, he heard the flaps in the air that saw closing towards him. He opened his eyes and saw the Winged panther. The Winged Panther has a speed that he was not able to follow.

Jeremy shot lightning towards it and as he expected, the Winged Panther dodged it.

Their fight continued and Jeremy was on the passive side. He keeps on defending and as time passes by, he kept receiving wounds and his injuries are getting serious. His spiritual energy is close to being depleted. He steeled his heart and forcefully used the same lightning strike that he used to kill the Red Eyed Wolf King.

Although his spiritual energy is not enough, for an unknown reason, he managed to shot make the same lightning strike and hit the Winged Panther to death. But also at that time, he felt a pain that he had never felt before. This pain is not something from the flesh. It originates from the soul.

He looked at the sky and weakly said, "to whoever is listening, please save me."

Then he lost his consciousness.

When he woke up he saw a man with a black hood caring for his wounds.

"Who are you?" He asked.

The man replied, "it does not matter who am I, all that matters is my lord had commended me to save you."

"Who is your lord? I must thank him." Jeremy said with gratitude.

"He is the master of life and death. He was from ancient times. He is divine.." The man in the hood said zealously.
