"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

All the members of the Anti-ronins gathered in their meeting room. They all sat in their designated seats, but no one had their heads up. They were all informed about the tragic defeat against the newly built Elite Force. This was their first defeat in the eighteen years they defended Legon City as their own. And now they had to face the wraith of Mercedes, who felt the most hardhearted about their loss. All the Lieutenants and Vice Captains were forbidden from sitting on their seats. They all lined up side to side on their knees as they waited for Mercedes to give his say on where they would settle now.

"Lieutenant..."

One of the low-leveled soldiers called upon the leader.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY??!!" Mercedes looked at him with rage and killed him instantly.

SLASH!!!

He decapitated him with his prowess, then butchered the rest of his body with ease.

"That's enough, Mercedes," Melvis said as he held onto his shoulder to make him stop.

"DO YOU WANT TO DIE AS WELL??!!"

Mercedes was ready to swing his deadly thread across Melvis's throat, but Malcolm held his hand. Melvis opened his eyes, just gazing at the string near his nose.

"You are more suitable telling us our future rather than breaking everything we still need," Malcolm said.

Mercedes let loose of his grip and exhaled. Malcolm slowly dropped his hand and then let go of Mercedes's arm. Melvis and Malcolm went back in the row and down onto their knees. Mercedes then walked up the stairs and sat down on his throne, even though it was for the last time.

"I think you guys are all aware of our current situation. Our base was built eighteen years ago, and Melvis and I were the first to set foot in this very place." Melvis chuckled as Mercedes said this. "You know, I'm the one who chose this place. This was my high school. Lime Rebellious High, was it?" He asked himself. "I had a lot of memories in this place; that is why I wanted it to be our hideout. But now we have a major setback. We were only allowed to stay here because we stopped the brats from headquarters from taking over. What went wrong this time, guys?"

Silent struck in the room as Melvis finally stood up.

"Permission to speak, General?" He asked.

"Go ahead, Brigadier Melvis."

"I was attacked by a blade made of scoria. When I heard Kagutsuchi lose contact with us, I got careless and laid my guard down."

Kagutsuchi got up next to him.

"Permission to speak, General?" He asked as Mercedes nodded to him.

"Gaiyato Aoi, I was attacked face to face by him. Seeing that lava surrounded me, I saw him come forth but didn't feel pressured. Just as I blinked, that brat I had cornered was in his place. The next thing I saw was that they switched places, and all went black."

"Teleportation Prowess and an attack strong enough to break through a dense-like prowess. He is a threat when he's not in the control of Williams." Mercedes said.

Lanna got up, but she didn't need to ask for permission.

"General, I was attacked by The Veil Man. He had The Bear by his side and held us from behind. I failed to notice that it was him, for he also has the Teleportation Prowess. The only difference was that he could switch objects as well. A gun had been replaced with The Bear, and that's when they attacked us."
