Paul smiled, realizing that Mako and Bill were unfamiliar with the concept of guilds; however, he couldn't blame them since the military doesn't allow news about gilds or gangs to be released to the general public. Mako and Bill had only encountered gangs so far which was why they knew about them, but guilds didn't operate in small or average cities like Emerald City which was they hadn't encountered them yet and had no clue that they existed. Paul leaned back in his chair, ready to provide an…-

Mako and Bill had also communicated with each other through the teleportation marker and they decided to meet up back home before going over to the headquarters. Mako took a slight detour before heading home as there was another destination on his list that he wanted to visit, the Cemetery. Mako wanted to visit his grandmother's grave one last time before he left Emerald City for who knows how long. The trip to the cemetery was a quick one as nothing of importance happened. Mako cleaned his…

After the emotional conversation between Leon and Paul, Leon took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. He felt a renewed sense of purpose and determination. "Father, I have so much to things to share with you, the recruitment test was far more interesting than I could have ever imagined and there is something important I need to tell you," Leon began, his voice filled with excitement. Curiosity sparked in Paul's eyes as he leaned forward, eager to hear more. "You can tell me everything, Leon. I…

As Leon entered his father's office, he found Paul sitting behind his desk, slurping down his fifth glass of whiskey as he was engrossed in his work. The room had an air of seriousness, with the walls filled with the same priceless decorations and paintings. Paul looked up from his papers, his gaze meeting his son's. His eyes had a mixture of disdain and uncertainty as he took in Leon's presence. "Leon... you're here...," Paul's voice held the slightest hint of emotion, his words trailing off…

William rushed to Bill's side, kneeling down on the wet ground. He cradled Bill's head gently, trying to wake him up. "Bill, wake up! Are you okay?" William's voice filled with worry as he shook his son lightly. After seeing that he was still breathing, William calmed down a bit. He picked up Bill's unconscious body and quickly headed inside. William took him to one of the guest rooms and laid him down on a thin mattress that was just laid down on the ground without a bed frame. He took a healing…

Mako and Sir Derek both stared at each other. Mako was wearing some regular clothes that he changed into before leaving, and they were one of the new ones he purchased after making money from winning in fights. The clothes were made from a good fabric that was water-repellant so even though it was raining outside, Mako was still mostly dry. On the other side, Sir Derek was standing in a messy apron and wearing a baker's hat. He had batter smeared all over him and patches of dough stuck in multiple…

The white disc made of concentrated air was hurled at Bill with impressive destructive power as even though it was 5 feet above the ground as it moved toward Bill, it ripped apart all the grass and dirt underneath it. Seeing the destructive power of the disc, Bill knew he had to dodge it at all costs because there was no way his earth ability would be able to block it. Activating that skill that allowed his body to react to even the slightest movements in air pressure around him, Bill managed to…

As the boys made their way over to meet someone important to them, the clouds began to crackle with lightning, and soon after it started pouring rain on Emerald City. The rain wasn't too heavy, but it wasn't a drizzle either, cooling down the air to the perfect temperature and making the night far more beautiful and magical. However, on the other side of the city, near the shipping docks, the atmosphere was gloomy and sad for Leon who was sitting out in the rain outside the entrance to the hanger…

The Lightning Claw was too fast and too close for Bill to dodge in his current state and he watched as the lightning claw spelled out his doom. However, just as the Lightning Claw came close to him, Bill suddenly noticed the claw moving slower than before and it was actually shifting a bit to the right as the individual blades of lightning were expanding and separating further apart from one another. Bill was a bit skeptical about how the blades of the lightning claw were moving because it looked…

It had only been a bit over two weeks since they had left Emerald City to take the recruitment test, but so much had happened in these last few days that it felt like it had been an eternity. They had grown so much and progressed much farther than they had ever imagined. "You know what I wanna do right now, just fall into my bed and sleep the whole night away," Mako said in the most cheerful and happy he had ever been in a long long time. However, when he turned around towards Bill, he saw that he…
