Recruiting

"You will be surprised that the hunting squad has been created, here are the badges. I went to collect them today"
Rose, Maxine, Susan and I are at the cafeteria after the guild lessons.
"Yeah, Rose told me she saw it in the guild news and I'm not surprised" Maxine replied
"Well , Rose ain't joining us so we still need two more members. Do you have any recommendations, Maxine"
"Me? Come on, this circle is my friend and I know no one else apart from you guys since my last friend died in a dungeon. Maybe Susan does?"
"No, I don't have any other friends in this country. I think the hunting squad… am sorry, can you tell the squad's name again?"
"The Devil's Bane. Always remember that please"
"Yeah, the devil's bane will have a hard time getting recruits mainly for the fact that being either a constitution or spirit attribute student is part of the requirements. 80 percent of the guild are attending strength attribute classes"
"Susan's right. You even gave an age restriction of being under the age of 18, how many teens are in the guild?" Rose finally chipped in the conversation
"Y'all don't understand me. Except for you Rose, all of us here are teens, there is no way we will accept someone that is way older than we are. You people should not worry, the guild already promote the squad, it is possible we receive more than two applications soon"
A guy walked past us, he seemed to have been listening to us for a long time. The guy went to join two people seated opposite us. When he seated he called the attention of his friends to us, they all looked at us at once. The guy was saying something to them, they are not loud but of course I can hear them
"You see those guys, over there,the boy among them, he is the once that formed that devil's bane hunting squad " the guy started
"I heard it is a hunting squad of five, no one is dumb enough to join a hunting squad of five people " a girl that seems to just pass eighteen said with an irritating look on her face
"Don't say that Cyndi, I think the guy must be pretty strong since he is ready to lead 5 superhumans against hundreds of monsters"
Cyndi covered her mouth with her hands as she laughs loudly "I would have believe you if the squad is not going to be full of teens"
"Speaking of superhumans " the guy that was listening to us earlier started "have you people heard of that after the news of the dungeon master's warning went viral, more than 500 superhumans are now in Golf, news recorded their entry to the country few days ago"
"Yes Jay, I heard most of them joined together and form a guild, the guild of…I can't remember the name"
"I heard their attack unit of twelve hunted in the dungeon yester night, they claim to kill over fifty monsters alone and none of them died"
"Really, and here is someone forming a five people hunting squad" Cyndi replied with astonishment
"Well I feel like joining him"
"Jay are you but?, joining that squad is more of communicating suicide"
"No it's not, we are going to hunt to go to war. Moreover, there are just kobolds alone on the first floor, twelv people killing fifty of them is not an achievement" the second guy supported jay
"Even you jack, I thought you are always afraid of monsters"
"I used to but since I am now a student of Constitution attribute, I have learnt that only through pain can I grow stronger. I think you cultivate the constitution too, right?
"No, I cultivate spirit. Let's go meet the guy"
"You are not going to leave me here you guys…"
Cyndi tried to stop the guys but they didn't listen and they came to me
"Hey man, what's up? I'm jay, am 3 months to being eighteen, I saw your newly created hunting squad so I'm throwing my cards in"
Maxine and others were dumbfounded, they never believe I'll have applicants this fast. We shifted our gaze from Jay to the guy beside him.
"Oh, this is my younger brother, his name is Jack and he is fifteen. He is willing to join. That is our senior sister over there" he said pointing at Cyndi
I sat up like a CEO in an interview ai question the guys with a smile on face
"Are you guys a member of the Monster Hunting Guild?"
"Yes we are. I have seen you before right, you are attending spirit attribute classes"
"Maybe but I can't recollect your face. My name is Levin and this is Rose, Maxine and Susan"
"Oh, you already have four members?"
"No, no. Rose is just our…"
"Our senior sister, she's not joining the squad " Maxine interrupted me and finished the statement
"Great, so are you taking the two of us?" Jack finally ask despite showing a timid character earlier
"We will like to know your skills first"
"Master of swords, you want me to show it here"
"No Jack, we will like you to show it in the dungeon. How about you Jay?"
"Does my skill really have a name?'' Ok I'll just describe it. I can make darkness in the day and light at night"
"Your skill sounds passive, we don't accept passive skills"
"Of course it does but the darkness is capable of hindering my target's sight, it can also corrode their body and eat through their brains if I want to. My light can blind my target and can also pierce through their skin and kill them"
"Interesting, I'm starting to like you?"
Maxine comment and a sign of jealousy flashes through my face, thank God no one sees it because Jay continue speaking
"Except that only five people can be attacked at once and that is if they are close to each other"
