System vs Rebirth

"It is thick."

We might even become a burden to her." Aerton shook his head and ordered, "The rest of you will maintain the position and inform Grandel to take the command. I'll inform Captain Howard."

"Yes, Sir!"

Aerton hurriedly crossed the river since the problem was truly beyond his ability.
