The Chosen

Nifty Newcomers

The rest of the Chosen Squad wondered who could be at the door. When they saw a smiling Jinyoung returning along with several people, they dismissed it as just the room service or the cleaning crew. All six of them jumped from their seats, however, when the newly-arrived people suddenly bowed down 90 degrees.

"Wanna be your star! Hello, we are Troas. We are at your service, sir!" The newly-arrived six strongly declared.

"Uh... Jinyoung, what did you do?" Jisung glared at Jinyoung as the guests composed themselves.

"Why me, hyung? I did not do anything." Jinyoung pursed his lips to suppress a laugh.

"Jinyoung..." Jisung's voice was threatening.

"Okay, fine. I admit. When I heard we are going to Pantazio province, I decided to pull some strings. This is Troas, Pantazio province's magical squad." Jinyoung confessed.

"I am Yoon Sanha, youngest of the troop."

"I am Park Minhyuk but my nickname is Rocky."

"I am Moon Bin."

"I am Lee Dongmin. As a magical squad member, I go as Cha Eunwoo or Eunwoo for short."

"I am Kim Myungjun but call me MJ."

"And I am Park Jinwoo or Jinjin, the leader of Troas. It's a great honor and privilege to assist the legendary Chosen in their quest."

"I see. We applaud your enthusiasm and professionalism but I would like to say, in behalf of all of us, that you can speak informally and relax." Jisung informed Troas.

"Please take a seat. Pardon us but we will finish our breakfast first." Sungwoon remarked, "How about you? Have you eaten your breakfast?"

"That is very kind of you, sir, but we already had our breakfast and prepared everything before coming here." Jinjin answered.

"Again, we allow you to address us informally depending on our age." Jisung reminded.

It took a little while, but after sorting the seniority, Troas began to relax.

"By the way, Jinyoung, how did you manage to ask assistance from such a respectable group?" Daniel asked.

"Well, I became close with Eunwoo-hyung when we both modeled for the cover of Beautiful." Jinyoung shyly said.

"Beautiful? Like Beautiful Magazine? Hallyu's most trusted fashion and beauty magazine?" Sungwoon shrieked, being obsessed with all things relating to beauty as a healthcare store owner.

"Uhm... Yeah." Jinyoung was already a blushing mess.

"I heard that only Hallyu's best visuals go to the cover. Bulletproof Scout's Jin and V, Two-Times' Tzuyu, Velvety Red's Irene and SVT's Mingyu were just some of the cover models." Minhyun enumerated.

"So, going back to the topic, I asked Eunwoo-hyung last night to have his group assist us, using our status as leverage. Thankfully, they agreed immediately and that leads to the present." Jinyoung ended his narration. By this time, everyone finished their breakfast and presented themselves appropriately to their guest.

"We are sorry for the sudden notice. I hope you don't mind." Jisung apologized, "Should we present our marks as proof?"

"No need, hyung. We already saw everyone's expect for..." MJ pointed at Daniel.

"Me? Oh, no, I don't have the mark. I am just your humble Seer Successor." Daniel waved his hand dismissively.

"So, we've heard from Jinyoung that your next destination is our province." Rocky clarified.

"Yes, according to our information, the next Chosen is in Pantazio." Minhyun confirmed.

"Pardon me for asking but are you all ready to leave? Our official residence, ­­­Aroha, is ready for your arrival. We already have prepared rooms and lunch for you." Jinjin notified.

"Oh, is that so? Then, give us fifteen minutes to prepare for our departure." Jisung requested.

After fifteen minutes, the Chosen Squad checked out of the hotel. Troas led them to the alleyway where they teleported in. Holding hands, everyone was teleported and arrived in what looks like a rooftop.

"Distinguished guests, we welcome you to Aroha and Pantazio province." Eunwoo gestured for emphasis.
