28 Chapter 22: Official team

Ana: (clasped both hands together and spoke in a lovely tone) Congratulations, your team has been updated to an A rank team and changed from a temporary team to an official one. Would you like to choose a name for your team?

Emyrs: The team name shall be...

A moment of silence penetrates the atmosphere as Emyrs, the team leader, became astray from reality and walked right into the paranoiac world of picking names.

Blitzkrieg!

The word shocked Emyrs' mind like lighting. Sparks flew everywhere as his face started to glow. His expression was one of a kind.

(Those who don't have trouble deciding name won't understand us, those who have to face that kind of problem!)

Emyrs: (exultantly) The team name shall be blitzkrieg!

Other than the sudden change in mood, the rest of the members were more attracted to this other worldly word. Blitzkrieg... They must have heard it wrongly, they taught.

Ana: (with a twisted tongue) Spit keg?

Emyrs: No, Blit-z-krieg!

Now they knew it wasn't a slip of a tongue. Here begs the question.

What is blitzkrieg?

They are however not in the position to talk right now. Well, Ana and Emyrs are basically having a lover's quarrel about the pronunciation of Blitzkrieg.

With words like...

bless cake

and

bliss cock (a male bird is my meaning! it just has too many meaning and no, not that part!!!)

It's not going to end anytime soon.

Maybe a few minutes, maybe an hour, maybe a millenia later. It was finally done.

Sarah was the first to uttered her curiosity, followed by the rest.

Emyrs had to explain. In a short sense he said: "It meant lighting fast tactics."

I think only Sarah and Faelyn understood why Emyrs named his team that way. The rest? probably doesn't care anyway.

As a celebration of creating a team they decided to have a large feast at night to know themselves better. After all they are going to be stuck with each other for quite a long time.

As for the afternoon, they decided to let themselves roam free.

Sarah and Natsumi decided to join Emyrs and Alice for purchasing goods. While Faelyn and Gaviel stayed in their own separate room. Russell wanted to join but was instantly refused by Natsumi and Alice. {I shouldn't be staying that but... #loli gang}

Spoilers: He then decides to follow them like a stalker and was caught by guards and charged for suspicious activity.

While heading back to the tavern to prepare for the walk in the afternoon, Sarah couldn't control her curiosity and asked.

Sarah: Leader, about the word you spoke about before. I have never heard of such a word before, what is its origin?

Emyrs: (smiled back at her odd interest at the subject, this only increases Emyrs' favour about Sarah) It was a word created in World War 2 by the nazi, when germany rapidly invade the surrounding neighbours with light and quick vehicles and infantry to take it down by surprise. {I hope you don't really expect her to understand what you just blabber about.}

Sarah: (bewildered yet fascinated) What is the World War 2 you just talked about? Is it a colossal war with everyone? And the Nazi? And- and the...

Emyrs: (only smiled slightly before looking up at the infinite sky, spoke softly in a faded tone) A place far far away from here...

Maybe I do miss it after all...

Is this why everyone tell us to appreciate what you have? Only when you lose something you take for granted do you truly realised it importance.

It's a good thing that this isn't a one way ticket...
