Omni-Mastery

The members of each unit were divided into two groups, Senior members & Junior members.

Senior members could be regarded as the core of the unit, while Junior members could be regarded as the growing seeds.

Going out for missions would usually require a team of at least 1 Senior member and 2 Junior members as the veteran experience of a Senior member would be needed to deal with difficult situations, even if Junior members could easily deal with the muscle work.

Considering these facts made me wonder how was it possible for Ellona to become a Senior member from the get go, a Senior member of the Special unit at that, after all, the highest status a newbie like us could get should have been similar to Fredrick's, a Junior member position with the highest priority for promotion.

But then again, looking at the fact that I was assigned my own unit (disregarding the special reasons for its creation), and the grade of the class Ellona managed to obtain, made it an easily understandable assignment.

With that said, as Senior members would normally be the spine of the unit, and the most devoted members to the unit, recruiting them to be a part of an unknown unit that was just established in a matter of days wouldn't be feasible, so I could only take a look at the junior members who have yet to get attached to a certain unit…

So the plan was to observe the training ground of the normal units and check the strength and abilities of the Junior members on hope of finding someone who might be a good fit to join 'Demon Hunter'.

`~~`~~`~~`

'There's variety, I guess...?'

Upon arriving at the training ground and taking a look, it was easily noticeable that quite a variety of professions existed in the Brigade.

Most people training were either weapon masters of Tier-4 and higher, or elemental warriors who were still Tier-3 when it came to weapon practice, but some of the rare professions were also there.

A martial artist who was training a 'Body of Elements' technique, a stealthy assassin training his dagger throwing… 

However, the only main similarity was that most were in the same range when it came to levels.

[ 'Human Sword Master' lv.80 ]

[ 'Human Elemental Warrior' lv.88 ]

[ 'Human Archer' lv.79 ]

[ 'Human Earth Martial Artist' lv.96 ]

[ ... ]

Their levels were limited, mostly below 100, with their stats hovering around 19~15 or lower, which in fact was quite an amazing feat when compared to normal orginzations if them being just Junior members was taken into consideration, but…

'That won't do…'

Considering the amount of gates that is expected to be on the list, I planned to add 2~4 members and split them into 2 teams at most so that efficiency could be retained, I even had hope of finding a good supporter who could increase my own efficiency, but it seemed like I might have set the bar of my expectations too high…

Some Senior members who were guiding the Junior members had quite the amazing levels in comparison, but even then they could only be compared to an elite demon soldier at best, and while they would be able to do well on speedy clears of gates, recruiting them would be more tough than clearing the gates on my own.

'Well, I can't ask for everything…'

With this I decided to just be satisfied with the advantages given to 'Demon hunter' and turn it into a solo team, at least till I found someone suitable…

Self-reliance wasn't the worst option I had anyway...

'As for now…'

`~~`~~`~~`

Spending my time between reading more books from the library, and lazing around in bed, while occasionally checking the members in the Brigade to see if there might be someone suitable for the unit, 5 days soon passed by.

I was heading to the Head's room to receive the long awaited 'Eradication' list, containing the training opportunities and the EP packages that I would be able to harvest, not to mention the reward which we didn't mention till now.

In fact, I would still do it even for free, but as as unit leader, I believed that the Head at least wouldn't short-change me, especially when this was supposed to be a mission that came directly from the Imperial Palace…

"So, how did the recruitment go, how many members did you add to 'Demon Hunter'?"

"ahem… None for now, I'm still undecided."

"Eh? Don't tell me you are planning on handling all the work alone…"

"Well, that's the plan for now, at least till I find the correct members to choose from…"

"hmmm, alright, I won't interfere then, however, if your progress for the next month isn't satisfying, I will have to pick people for you."

"No need to worry!"

"Here you go, here is the 'Eradication' list as well as the coordination booklet holding the specific coordinates, I expect you to start moving in 5 days at most."

"There's no need to wait, I will be moving out starting tomorrow."

`~~`~~`~~`

Lightning Empire, The Light Association branch…

"So, we didn't manage to get in contact with the base?"

"Yes, just as you expected sir, the contact attempt was a failure, we also detected hidden movements within the Empire, we suspect that the illusion formation might have started malfunctioning resulting on the gate's location being revealed by luck."

"I don't believe in luck, but the chances are that the truth of the gates should have been partially revealed, and knowing the Lightning Empire well, I would expect they would start moving quickly…"

"What should we do next sir?"

"we can't simply wait as the foundations that was prepared long ago get plucked out of their roots, that would revert everything back to zero… We can only choose to accelerate our plans…"

"Your order is to…"

"Yes, we are left with no option but to start the 'release' plan early, prepare the 'wash' subject for immediate dispatch!"
