For the next few hours, Clovis led his group to kill as many beasts as possible and created all kinds of situations to see how Luci fit in with the group.
It was clear that Luci was knowledgeable and strong. If there was a powerful beast, she could use her extensive knowledge to kill the beast much faster.
However, he realized that the more mbers he got, the harder it was to find soone that would fit in. After all, he had to consider more habits and personalities so that it wouldn't create a chaotic situation among themselves.
He learned this after eting Luci, especially that eccentric side of her.
Once the sun was set, Clovis gathered the group, discussing whether Luci would be accepted into the group or not.
Clovis clasped his hands and asked with a solemn expression. "And now we'll be holding a final eting. I want to listen to your opinions about Luci and whether she should join us or not."
Luci looked at them, leaning on Reolf. It seed she was using Reolf as a cushion while putting so food in her mouth. She was simply too nervous, scared that she would get rejected since the one she was longing for was right before her.
Reolf didn't seem to care much about her. As long as Clovis was there, he wouldn't have to worry about his life.
Jay was the first one to answer.
"From the looks of it, her skills and knowledge are indeed the real deal. As a combatant, I don't have any qualms about her strength. She could be a good addition to the group. And with this number, we can literally split our group into two with four mbers each.
"I know that you are planning to make two elite groups, which should be 12 people in total. If you look at the current state, the vanguards are you, , Erwin, Ragna, and Reolf. With her, we will be able to split the vanguards evenly.
"Her strength lies in her knowledge and skills. If she is paired with or you, we can definitely kill the beasts much faster, allowing us to get even more freedom in splitting our forces.
"If you think that her personality is fine, then I don't have any objections to her joining the group. However, if she is a threat to our group, I will be the first to unsheathe my weapon," Jay explained from his perspective.
On the other hand, Kanaria judged her personality, especially since she would be trying whatever she could to acquire the sample.
Kanaria said, "I personally can't handle her. It's not about I hate her or sothing. It's just… I'm afraid of her obsession hindering our group."
Luci raised her hand. "As a professional, I know when I can express myself and when I can't. If you think that I've made a mistake in how I conduct myself, you can confront imdiately. I'll gladly receive my punishnt."
Kanaria looked at her before backing down.
"As the operator of the group, I don't have any problems as well with her. She is able to follow the instructions I have set. In fact, her knowledge might allow to mark a different spot to show the beasts' weaknesses, allowing us to swiftly decide the battle.
"If you think about it, pairing and her will be a good idea in the case we have to split into two groups. In fact, I'll be glad if I can get more data about the beasts," lody shared her experience.
"I don't mind sharing the data. It's not important to . All the data I've collected so far is for the sake of my goal. If I can gain more data, I don't really care about sharing it with the group. In the end, I'm a part of the group," Luci explained.
lody nodded, while Ragna and Erwin looked at each other, wondering who would be next.
Erwin decided to go first. "I don't have any objection. That's all. The rest of the problem will be handled by the group leader."
"…" Everyone was speechless by his answer.
Ragna smiled wryly as he added, "To be honest, the most important thing will be her dical expertise. Everyone loves to get injured here, including . But unlike , who has a special body type, you guys are making worried. Hence, having a skilled doctor is sothing I'd welco."
"Oi. I'm not!" Kanaria frowned.
Last but not least, Reolf simply raised his paw as he barked once while showing a smile.
It seed the decision had been made.
Clovis nodded in understanding before turning to Luci. "So do you have sothing to say, Lucifania?"
"Once again, allow to introduce myself. I am Lucifania. You can call Luci. I know what I'm lacking the most and understand that you are worried about doing sothing reckless.
"If you think I have made a mistake, please don't hesitate to tell about it. I know that my words alone won't be enough to ease your worries, so I will do my best to prove it one at a ti.
"I'd really love to join the group, and I won't lie, it's because this group has what I desire. However, I can promise you that I won't do any harm to the group. I will get the consent first. So please allow to join the Libation Fiesta."
Luci lowered her head.
They exchanged looks, and eventually their gazes shifted to Clovis as he made the final decision.
"I understand. After reviewing what everyone has to say, I have made my decision. Welco on board, Luci."
Luci's expression brightened as she raised her head with a shocked expression. She could finally join and learn a lot more about the relationship between humans and beasts. Of course, there were only Clovis and Reolf that piqued her interest.
As if he were teasing her, Clovis added one more thing. "Oh, by the way, the secret that you want… I think I can simplify it by introducing myself. My na is Clovis Hacfield, nice to et you."
Luci's face imdiately changed. "What the f—!"
