I Became The Tower Master-Chapter 14 - : The First Mission

The Eclipse Guild was officially up and running, and the buzz surrounding its formation had drawn climbers from all over Japan. The guild's headquarters, a sprawling facility provided by the military, was now a hive of activity. Climbers trained in the courtyard, strategized in the training room, and mingled in the common areas, all united under the banner of Hiroshi's vision.

Alden stood in the command center, his eyes scanning the monitors displaying real-time data on monster activity across the city. Hiroshi was busy giving interviews and rallying the public, leaving Alden to handle the logistics of the guild's first mission.

"Alright, listen up," Alden said, addressing the group of climbers gathered in the room. "Our first mission is simple: clear the monsters from Sector 7. It's one of the most heavily infested areas, and the military's been struggling to contain it. This is our chance to prove what we can do."

The climbers nodded, their expressions a mix of excitement and nervousness. Among them was Kenji, his arms crossed and a smirk on his face. Alden caught his eye and gave a slight nod. Let's test this guy's capability in this mission.

The team arrived at Sector 7, a once thriving commercial district now reduced to rubble. The streets were eerily quiet, save for the occasional growl of a monster lurking in the shadows.

Hiroshi stepped forward, his feathers materializing around him. "Alright, everyone. Stick to the plan. We'll move in teams of three and clear the area systematically. Alden will coordinate from the command center."

The climbers split into their assigned teams and began their sweep. Hiroshi led the charge, his feathers darting through the air with precision, taking down monsters with ease. Kenji, meanwhile, hung back, his telekinetic powers allowing him to manipulate debris and create barriers to protect his team.

Alden watched the operation unfold through the live feed from the climbers' body cameras, an evil smirk spreading across his face. I see this place will be a challenge for the new guy.

As the teams pushed deeper into Sector 7, they encountered a [Lvl 10 Shadow Behemoth], a towering monster with impenetrable armor and devastating attacks. Hiroshi and his team were clearing a different section, and their operation was running smoothly.

Kenji's team, however, faced the Behemoth head on. The climbers hesitated, their confidence wavering.

"Fall back!" one of Kenji's teammates shouted, their voice cutting through the chaos. "We need to regroup and come up with a new plan."

Kenji stepped forward, his smirk still in place. "Let me handle this."

Alden, observing from the command center, had strategically chosen this moment. I hope this will be entertaining.

Before anyone could stop him, Kenji activated his Mind's Dominion, focusing his telekinetic powers on the Behemoth. The monster roared as its movements slowed, its massive limbs struggling against the invisible force holding it in place.

Kenji's concentration wavered as he struggled to maintain his hold. Sweat trickled down his forehead, his body trembling from the effort. The Behemoth thrashed violently, causing debris to rain down around them.

"Now!" Kenji shouted, his voice strained from the effort.

Hiroshi, unaware of Kenji's situation, continued leading his team efficiently. Meanwhile, Kenji's teammates watched in awe and confusion.

"Hey Kenji, are you sure you got this?" one of his teammates asked nervously.

Yeah, because nothing says 'trustworthy' like a guy sweating bullets, Kenji thought, but out loud he said, "Absolutely. Trust me."

Kenji's teammate chuckled despite the tension. "Are you sure? You've got a weird way of reassuring people, you know that?"

Dammit, I didn't sign up for this shit. I wanna go back to cup noodles, Kenji thought, but he kept his focus on the Behemoth.

Just then, the Behemoth broke free for a moment, nearly crushing one of Kenji's teammates. Kenji pushed his powers to the limit, reasserting his control just in time. Damn, that was close. I need to level up more for my skill to show its power.

Alden watched the scene unfold, his eyes narrowing as he analyzed Kenji's performance. Interesting. His skill has limitations likely tied to the level or duration he can maintain control. Ah, it might be that the higher the level of the monster, the shorter the duration of his control.

"Now!" Kenji shouted again, his voice strained from the effort.

The team attacked the Behemoth, targeting its weak points. The combined assault was too much for the monster, and it collapsed to the ground, its body disintegrating into motes of light.

The climbers cheered, their morale restored. One of Kenji's teammates approached him, a look of respect in their eyes. "That was impressive. Thanks for the assist."

Kenji shrugged, his smirk widening. "Just doing my job. And trying to avoid becoming a monster snack."

The mission was a resounding success. Sector 7 was cleared, and the Eclipse Guild had proven its worth. The climbers returned to the guild headquarters, their spirits high and their confidence bolstered.

Alden stood in the command center, reviewing the mission data. Kenji's skill is more powerful than I thought. he'll be of use, But I need to keep an eye on him.

Hiroshi entered the room, his face glowing with excitement. "We did it, Alden! The mission was a success, and the public's already calling us heroes."

Alden nodded, his expression carefully neutral. Now we are back to 'we'. Sigh, he is a lost cause. "Good job. But this is just the beginning. We need to keep pushing forward if we're going to make a real difference."

Hiroshi's smile faltered slightly, but he nodded. "You're right. We can't afford to get complacent."

As Hiroshi left the room, Alden's mind raced. The guild is gaining traction, and Hiroshi's becoming the hero the world needs. But I hope to get a positive reaction on the guild result otherwise,

He glanced at the monitors, his eyes narrowing. there will be consequences.
