"What do you mean we're going to accept another person here, Captain?" Stella shouted while slamming the table. She still couldn't forget about Noel, so she didn't have the heart to accept another person.

Clara, on the other hand, wanted to say the new person was Noel but with an alternate identity. But she thought it would be amusing if they realized it themselves, so she didn't say anything about it.

It was a good payback for Noel, who made her Zero Squad like this and created more trouble for her since she had been going back and forth to the headquarters. Of course, she took into account his contribution to saving her Zero Squad. So, she just let him settle everything with them.

"I've got the recommendation letter from the commander himself. It seems that the commander has been suppressing the information about him.

"According to what I've heard, this guy is quite good as well. He has a connection with a Master Blacksmith. He's slightly older, but his strength has reached Spirit Wielder recently.

"If Noel and Anna weren't in this generation, he would undoubtedly become the first rank. His talent seemed to be similar to Septa's. Other than that, he had saved people too, so he was quite fitting with our squad."

"Another Spirit Wielder? Since when has the Demon Banner Army received a lot of talented people?" Paul frowned, feeling something was wrong.

Clara shrugged. "I don't know. Though, his identity is truly a problem. If his identity is revealed, I'm afraid that the Supreme Devil Organization will hunt him down. So, make sure you don't reveal his identity."

"What? He's a target of the Supreme Devil Organization?" Paul looked down, contemplating. There were a lot of reasons why one could become the organization's target.

But more importantly, for him to be targeted as soon as his name was heard meant he was already on the 'must-kill' list of the organization.
