Human Binary: The Unrivalled King of Technology

Hearing this, the people relax a bit. But not entirely. The previous battle was not child's play. Though they couldn't question the authority, at least….

"A minute of silence for the fallen heroes," Emma announced out of the blue.

Instantly, all the knights stood up while the atmosphere in the auditorium became solemn. The air was heavy the atmosphere temperature dropped by a considerate level. All eyes in the room look straight while also it looked like they were looking on the horizon, reminiscing.

A minute pass like smoke. 

 "Let seat," Emma said slowly.

Emma stared at everyone in the room. Though they couldn't see his face. They knew he was looking at their face. Clearing his throat. "The battle we had a day ago was a lesson for every one of us. Including the organization. Nobody expects such an outcome. However, we've learned and need to make such would not repeat to our men again…"

"Everyone, bring out your A3 tabloid"

 Immediately, all the 80 knights brought palm-size devices from their pockets. This device was given to them after they return from the battle. But none of them knew the usefulness of the device. Not until now.

"The A3 tabloid is encrypted device use that can only be used by you 80 alone. This device worked with your DNA. So only could use it. What is the function of this device? One… to receive an order from the HQ. Two…. Level and recognition in the organization and Three…. Safety mechanism." Emma paused and took a deep breath. 

"From this moment… you are no more knight, but….. Ghost Hunter."

Ghost Hunter!

"Yeah… You're Ghost Hunter. You hunt what others dare not to hunt. You will venture where no one will venture to. You're Ghost among the people but Hunter to the beast or the things unknown. The organization will spend all its resources to nurture you to become the best among the best. One ghost hunter equal 10 elite squad…."

[[Sir, all the resources are ready.]]

>>When did you decide to create a ghost hunter squad… Don't tell me you thought about it on the fly.

'This idea came to me during the battle. The A3 device was meant for another purpose but I decided to use it for them. The knights that face the first battle in Starlight Genesis will not be normal. So, I create this to signify our first sacrifice in this organization. Over time, the loss of the fallen heroes we not be forgotten.' 

>>That really a great idea. You immortalized your first battle.

'Yeah'

The short conversation between Lily and Emma barely took two seconds. The knights though were still digesting the intel they had just received. They look at each other but no one uttered a word. This came out of the blue. What they all expect was a compensation plan and be given a position in the organization but ….

Beep!

While the knights were still in their thought. The device in their hands beep while the dormant device displayed the logo of the Ghost Hunter. Seeing this, the knight realized this was no dream. They're now the Ghosthunter.

"Now, let me talk about what we faced in our last battle," Emma announced calmly. 'Since who knows how many will die… it better for them to know why they are fighting…'

"Check your Ghost tabloid. Do you see the beast?"

Immediately a beast appeared on their tabloid. All the new Ghost Hunter had their expression change a little. This is the dangerous beast that kills their comrade. While some clenched their fist. 

"What you're seeing is called Kpriv. A beast from an unknown origin. This beast had never been seen on earth. We don't know where this beast comes from but we have a lead now. There are two types of Kpriv. The normal Kpriv and the 1-star Kpriv. I believe you identified the difference."

The tabloid displayed the details of both the normal Kpriv and 1-star Kpriv and their characteristic. How they kill, strength, speed, and weakness. Seeing everything, the people took a deep breath. This is deadly, that is what they imagine. According to the data on their tabloid. One of these beasts could destroy thousands of people if its weakness is not known on time. 

They finally understand why many of their comrades died on the battlefield. Weapons were almost useless against them. But they had to praise the organization for finding the weakness of this beast on time in a single battle. Some of the negative feelings they have toward the organization disappeared. The organization tried its best during the battle with a medkit and airstrike.

"I believe you all understand why our loss was great in the battle. Do you remember the thousand of death in district 18…?" Emma asked.

The Ghost Hunter nodded while some raised their brow. 

"Yes. It's what you thought. It is caused by the Kpriv."

Sighed!

"After we detect the beast, we have no men on the ground that could fight this beast of unknown origin. Besides, we are not prepared... We tried to save the people but alas… To prevent that kind of massacre won't happen again, we deploy all resources and monitor District 18 and its surrounding. Then we discover the emergence of the beast. Then we decide to battle the beast outside the city. The rest you know…" Emma concluded. 

 The room descended into a state of stillness. Everyone with his thought. Less than Five hundred knights lost their lives battling the beast. But compared to the damage the beast would cause if they were allowed to enter the city. The Ghost Hunters couldn't dare to think it through. Previously, more than 3000 people were killed in district 18. But compare to 500. The organization's decision couldn't be blamed. 

"Thank you for explaining this to us." Jojo stoop up righteously and announced seriously.

Seeing this, Emma smiled under his helmet. "Miss Jojo. What do I teach about your straightforwardness?"

Hmm?

Jojo raised her brow, staring at the man in a suit. At once, she remembers what the young man meant. She pursed her lips. So, he's the same young man. Not knowing what to say. She opened her mouth but the word didn't come out. All eyes fixed on Jojo while some were amused by her awkwardness. 

"I-I…"
