Breakout

"So… that is a dungeon, huh?" George asked as he exited the truck while Major Ivan strolled away, walking to one of the officers that had arrived there.

"So what is the rating? Seems that even the General has no idea."

"The Hunter's association has rated this dungeon, Unknown, sir."

"Damn it." Major Ivan replied as he looked up at the portal of the dungeon, which was starting to turn slightly red. "And how long until a dungeon breakout could occur?"

"We have about 2 days!" One of the hunters shouted as he walked toward both of the soldiers.

"And who are you?"

"I'm a class B hunter from the association, Hans-Jurgen. Let's just say that I am somebody that knows about 'hunting' in dungeons." The German hunter said with his chin up high, clearly looking down on the regular soldiers.

"Hans… The guy who stopped the C-level dungeon breakout on his own?" Major Ivan asked.

Hans nodded, "Yes. And I have also gotten an order from the association to only involve hunters… And, I don't think that any of you are… So would you mind sitting in the corner while the professionals do their work?"

Major Ivan walked closer to the German hunter while shaking his head, "I don't think you know where you are. You're not in Germany, boy. You're in the United States of America, and I hope you respect this country's authorities."

Hans gritted his teeth as he heard the other hunters walk closer.

"There they go again…"

"Why can't they just let us do our I thing?"

The United States government was regarded as the country that had the strongest military in the world, but in terms of hunters, they lacked them the most, thus having to resort to foreign hunters for assistance when an event such as this happened.

And this has also caused most of the hunters to look down on the country that has gone down to such a pitiful state.

"Of course. But I won't guarantee your safety," Hans replied before the murmurs among the other hunters started getting louder.

Hans then turned, wondering why the crowd got louder so suddenly, before seeing a figure floating in the sky right beside the dungeon portal, "Kenta Yoshida?"

"It's Kenta Yoshida! The ranker!"

[Kenta Yoshida, aka World's Number 1 Mage]

[Ranked 11 in the Class A Hunter rankings]

[Managed to force a gate to close without entering it]

The mage slowly descended from the sky and landed, touching the ground gently while looking at one person consistently.

He then started walking towards George, who was right behind Major Ivan and extended his arm, "I'm Kenta. I hear what you do to Class A monster. Very happy you here."

"Hi Kenta, happy to meet you too… Say, how did you know that I am the one?"

"Magic."

"Oh yeah, I forgot that you actually do that."

Meanwhile, the rest of the hunters that were present were dumbfounded as they saw Kenta, who among the hunters was known as a hunter who never talked at all.

"Did Kenta say that the soldier killed a Class A monster? I thought he would look much… stronger."

"I thought that was just a rumor! Didn't the UN say that it was most likely fake?"

"Well, Kenta recognizes the guy; it's obviously real, dude."

Both Major Ivan and Hans were also shocked as they saw George talking casually to a hunter that would be able to kill George with a flick of a finger.

But George didn't know anything about Kenta; in fact, he didn't know much about hunters since he hates hunters to the point that he just skips anything that is related to them.

Crack!

The sound that erupted from the dungeon portal was so loud that everyone surrounding it could help but turn to look at it.

"The dungeon is cracking!!"

"But I thought we had about 2 days to clear it!"

"CLEARLY not! That thing is cracking faster than my relationships!"

The hunters quickly got into their battle stance while preparing for a full-scale monster attack. Something that only veteran hunters and soldiers had experience doing.

Kenta turned and quickly levitated into the air while extending both of his arms toward the dungeon portal, which caused the sky to darken and rain. A lightning bolt suddenly struck the dungeon, a power that Kenta commanded, forcing the cracks to heal itself.

"He did it!"

"Kenta did it again!"

George took a step back as he saw the power that was shown in front of him by the Japanese ranker. "What the…"

"You gotta get used to this kid. These guys are like demigods here."

"Yeah, it's just that he reminds me of a Japanese Zeus."

Kenta quickly flew back to the ground right in front of Major Ivan, "Are you the authority here?"

"If you are asking whether I am the person in charge of this portal, then yes."

"We must go in now. The portal is cracking by itself. Most likely a high-level dungeon."

"How much time do we have?" Major Ivan asked, noticing the severity of the situation.

"5 hours… at most."

Ivan gulped before turning to George, "Yeah, you might have to do a few rounds… If you get what Im talking about."

George nodded; 5 hours wasn't a long time; in fact, in terms of clearing a dungeon, even a day wasn't enough, "I understand."

Ivan then took out his satellite phone, "General, we will have to evacuate everyone in Tampa."

It didn't take long for the General to understand what was going on before he ended the phone call, and suddenly, the whole city was erupting in the sound of the emergency siren.

"A dungeon breakout is happening; please evacuate the city."

"A dungeon breakout is happening; please evacuate the city."

The Major then extended his hand to the Kenta, "Can I trust you to lead the hunters?"

"Of course. Leave it to me." Kenta replied before turning to the hunters that had been ready for battle.

"Let us enter."

Both the Major and George waited for more, but that was all Kenta said.

"Wait, that's it? No motivational chants?"

"Yeah, why?"

The Major sighed, turning to George, "After you die, make sure to tell me not to give that position to Kenta."
