Chapter 217: Chapter 217: Securing Future Ally

"Commander Zain, I would like to introduce you to someone. This is Zero, an S-Ranker," General Leon introduced Aengus by his chosen alias. Though surprised, General Leon accepted the request calmly—after all, the name didn't change the person, and that was all that mattered.

"Hello, Commamder! It's nice to meet you!" Aengus said respectfully.

"An S-Rank?"

Commander Zain looked Aengus up and down, assessing his physique and confirming the General's words as truth.

"Such a fine, healthy young man—and an S-Rank at such a young age. I'm impressed. What would you like me to do for him, General?" Commander Zain asked, clearly impressed. Being an S-Rank himself, he found it shocking that someone so young had achieved the rank so quickly. He had no doubt in General Leon's claim, nor in his own expert eyes.

"What? That guy is already an S-Rank?"

"That's impossible! He's so young!"
