Chapter 157: The Demonstration
Jake had left the blacksmith shop so he could quickly head over to the hand to hand combat club for the meeting among all the members of the Fang hunters. Before he could go far, he received a message on his watch asking him to head over to the hand to hand combat club building.
Worried, Jake decided to head there and he saw Sunny outside the gate but unlike his normal and usual smiling face, Jake was met with a serious version of Sunny.
Jake walked into the building along with Sunny and then he saw that they weren't the only ones in the building as Jake could see all the members of the Fang hunters along with General Paul and Wilfred in the building.
After a series of conversation, Jake was told that he, Alex, Peter and Emily were to be recruited into a secret group that will join hands to combat against the werewolves and the betrayals in the academy.
Peter told them no that he wouldn't join a group as far as he was in Jake's group resulting in him showing the Generals the Fang hunter's symbol along with the rest of the members.
"What the heck is going on?" Paul asked with his eyes widened as he could the symbol on every one's arms.
"What type of group is this that feels like an occult group?" Wilfred asked as he could see the symbol clearly on everybody's arm.
"It's not an occult group." Jake said as he looked at the Generals.
"Just like you guys here, I had suspected there was a betrayal in the academy and he was surely high up for the werewolves to have gained access into the city without thorough check."
"So I decided to rally up those that I care about and trust to form a group just in case there was going to be trouble in the academy. So here, these are the people I want to protect and I trust that won't betray me."
"As long as you are a member of the Fang hunters, then I trust you." Jake declared as he looked at Paul without a hint of hesitation or fear.
"This has been going on and we didn't know about it." Wilfred mumbled under his breath.
"I see, it all makes sense now. I'm guessing you all were heading here for your meeting when we sent the message." Paul said.
"Alright, I don't think the Generals here will stop your little fan club. Since you said you trust all of them here, and you have beat us in creating your little secret group, then it won't hinder our plans." Sunny said.
"Look Sunny, I trust you too." Jake said looking at Sunny. "But them, not so much. What if they are working for the betrayals and you are unaware?"
"What!?! How rude!" Wilfred shouted as he shot up immediately about to dash forward towards Jake.
But Alex along with Peter had stood up immediately drawing their weapons.
"You do know we aren't scared of the academy right? And you should know better than going against me." Alex threatened.
"Will you all just calm down?" Paul asked as he stood to try calm both sides down.
"I understand the two sides concern. Jake's group do not trust those outside of their group while we want to recruit them, it's not gonna be possible like that." Paul said then he turned to Jake.
"What even is the main purpose of this group? I mean, can you make your members stronger?" Paul asked as a small smirk appeared on his face.
The reason for Paul's question was not to bellitle the group or anything, it was because he felt weak when the Beta werewolf attacked.
Him, a General couldn't do anything against the werewolf because of how weak he was and now, if there was even the slightest chance of him getting stronger in Jake's group, he would take it.
Stay connected with empire
Listening to Paul's request, Jake had a thought on his mind and he smiled as this was a good request for him. If he could prove that Paul could get strong if he joined the Fang hunters, then it will really boost their strength.
Having a General under his command will be nice so Jake just smiled.
"Alex, care to have a little spar with General Paul here?"
After hearing his name, Alex shot up straight and was heading towards General Paul where he was standing at the front.
"General Paul, do you think you can take a full blow from Alex here?" Jake asked.
Although General Paul didn't have a crazy amount of Qi in his body like Alex, General Paul was still good at controlling his Qi therefore giving him a good control of his Qi and he also had good equipment on him currently.
"Sure, why not?" Paul said as he stood up to face Alex confidently.
Before the demonstration, Jake had Alex use a different weapon to his giant sword. Even if General Paul was confident, Jake would hate for a possible new member of the Fang hunters to get seriously injured.
"Now Alex, I want you to hit General Paul as hard as possible with all your strength using that sword in your hand. While, General Paul here, will try to block the hit." Jake said.
They both readied their grip on their weapons and just as Jake had commanded, Alex gave a full swing aiming directly for General Paul's weapon.
General Paul was prepared for Alex and just at the right time, Paul concentrated all his Qi into the part of the sword where the two made an impact.
The power of the two swords clashing, reverberated in the air with wind blowing everyone that were close their hair up.
"That student is really strong but not as strong as my own student Jake." Sunny smiled.
"I admit the attack was strong, but this student has always had this power. It's just as expected considering who his family is." Paul said.
"I don't see the point here."
"Don't rush General Paul, the demonstration isn't over yet." Jake said.
Jake quickly navigated to his system and activated Guild overdrive. And immediately, all members of the Fang hunters received a notification and they felt a surge of power course through them.
"Okay, now go again." Jake smiled.
