Best Of The Fifth

Chapter 34 - Cold Topic

[STRONG LANGUAGE!!!]

[Y/N's] POV -

It took a little while to get to Astera from the WildSpire, but Me and Emily eventually made it back.

I think she was a little shaken up. I mean...you don't normally run into a New Diablos Species every hunt.

We were on the side of the front gate, landing swiftly in-front of it.

'Hey, Emily?'

'Yeah?'

'You Okay? You seem a little...shaken.'

'I-I'm fine. It's the first time I've seen a group of Hunters get overwhelmed, and I have a feeling the Commander won't want to let this Diablos go.'

'Yeah. He probably won't. But we came here to hunt every monster that we could, And I'm going to stick to it.'

I walked over to Emily and put my arm around her,

'I have someone to fight for too.'

She giggled and replied,

'Me Too.'

We smiled at each other before there was a thud behind us.

'Come on! We need to inform the Commander.'

The Huntsman, Anthony and the Hunters had arrived back in Astera.

The Huntsman didn't skip a beat before he ran off towards the Commanders table.

The Two hunters both chatted and walked off.

'So...W-What now?' I heard Anthony say.

I took my arm from Emily and turned to him.

'Umm, I guess we just report it?' I said, hoping he didn't realise anything.

It's obvious he likes Emily but they won't work out. At least...they better not.

'FLEET MEETING!'

The Commander bellowed our a shout calling for all the Major members of the Commission to assemble at the planning table.

This normally includes Me, Emily, The Other Fleet Leaders, Chief Researchers, The Huntsman, Field Team Leader and The Commander.

'I'll let you guys get on that.' Anthony said a little sadly before walking into the camp.

I feel bad for him. He's lost a lot but doesn't seem to have any setbacks when he hunts.

He's an interesting Character.

Either way, Me and Emily took off towards the Commanders Table.

The rest of the team were already gathering around, with only a select few missing.

Me and Emily took our usual position at the opposite end of the table to the Commander.

The Final Person, The Second Fleet Master, arrived and the Commander immediately spoke up,

'So, Fifth Fleet, what did you find?'

Emily Spoke Up for us,

'There was a Diablos...but it wasn't like the others we've fought. It had blood like markings over its body.'

'It's a BloodBath Deviant.' The Huntsman said from the corner.

'A What?'

'Really?'

'What Did It Do?'

'QUIET!'

The Commander stopped everyone bombarding Me and Emily with questions.
