Aldred observed Francus and Grigor with a knowing smile, his eyes reflecting the potential he had just glimpsed within them. As the leader of the Celestial Platoon, he recognized the value of dedicated and resilient warriors, even if their strength wasn't immediately evident.
With an air of authority, Aldred offered, "Would you two like to join a special squad directly under me?"
Francus and Grigor exchanged surprised glances, their expressions a mix of disbelief and gratitude. To be invited to serve directly under Aldred was an honor beyond their wildest dreams. They had heard of the legendary missions and adventures undertaken by Aldred's squad, and the prospect of being part of such a team was both exhilarating and humbling.
Grigor was the first to find his voice. "Sir, we would be honored to join your special squad."
Francus nodded fervently in agreement. "Absolutely, sir. We'll give it our all."
