30 Squad 13 9 (2/2)

”That's disgusting man.”

Han reached over and hooked onto Jose's arm. Han successfully recruited Jose and looked around.

”Squad 13 is always short on members. You're free to join us anytime.”

The other transferees decided to wait and see. There was no need to rush their decision and join Han in squad 13.

Han looked toward the youth with brown curly hair amongst the new transfers. He had come to Ark from the cold regions of Scandinavia.

'His name is Canute Meyer, I believe.'

Other than Jose, this youth had been the other transferee that Han wished to recruit.

'Canute Meyer. A youth from the fishing village of Norway. During the survival drill he had made a raft and returned to Ark on his own.'

Han held Canute's gaze for a moment. Canute didn't give much of a response.

'Canute is able to come up with ideas that I can't. He will be able to support me through random hurdles and accidents.'

Han read through Canute's training records and analyzed the data carefully.

Canute enjoyed solving problems in a different way than the rest. If he were to describe him nicely, he is brilliant. If he were to describe him badly, he's an eccentric oddball.

'Even without Canute, as long as I can recruit many members in my squad, our battle tactics will become dynamic. It will be good to recruit as many people as I can.'

He waited in silence for a response of any kind. Han was happy with just Jose and left the second hospital ward. The data of potential members he had selected prior, floated in his mind. Han quickened his pace.

”Dimitri.”

Han entered the gymnasium.

Dimitri was seated, weight training on a exercise equipment. His veins pulsed from his muscle as he trained his body.

”Hey, who do we have here? Our reserve squad leader Han Lee.”

Dimitri had a thick smile. Sweat drenched his whole body.

Dimitri was highly talented in close combat, and had ranked high in psychic talent as well. He carried out his individual tasks with great success, and worked brilliantly as a team as well.

”Won't you join Squad 13?”

Dimitri scratched his head.

”I knew you would ask me.”

Han thought Dimitri was highly likely to join his squad.

'Dimitri is not one to be wary of how others view him and forcibly bend his own beliefs for the sake of others. He rather enjoys experiencing hardships. He will probably join my squad, the more others try to stop him, the more it will prove to be futile.'

”And your answer?”

”Sorry, I reject. Han, it's not that I dislike you. I rather like you. However, it's been decided that I would be the next squad leader of squad 5 in the next term. When our current squad leader transfers into third year, I agreed to take on his responsibilities. I can't betray him after all this time just to transfer into a different squad.”

Han's eyes shook slightly. He nodded.

”I see.”

”Also, rather than being under your command, it would be more enjoyable to be your opponent.”

Dimitri said and winked. Han let out a light sigh.

”Don't come crying to me after splitting your head. You'll be my enemy.”

”I'll break both your arms next time, Han.”

Han waved goodbye as he left the gymnasium. Everyone in the fifth squad looked to Dimitri with a relieved expression.

”Simon… would probably reject me. He's also hard to deal with.'

Simon is not the most sociable person. Han did not imagine Simon as part of his own squad.

Simon enjoyed dominating with his power and being his own boss. Han tried recruiting many others.

”Sorry. We don't plan to betray our squad.”

”I don't have any particular reason to join you.”

”I feel your methods are a bit cowardly.”

Everyone had various reasons to reject. Currently, Han only had Jose in his squad. He required a minimum of 2 more members.
