My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy-Chapter 346: Teams picked
Alex sighed. "But that doesn’t solve the problem of who is to accompany Jake and occupy the seats."
"That is left for Jake to decide." Peter said as everyone turned towards Jake who just sighed.
"I really don’t know what to do right now, this came up all of a sudden." Jake said.
"I have a suggestion if I may." Humfree said as he stood up and Jake nodded. "The big three said they want two teams consisting of three members each from each guild right?"
"Right!" Alex nodded.
"So I suggest we make our teams well rounded as much as possible." Humfree said. "Most guilds would do the mistake of pouring all their damage dealers into one team and then let the second team have the left overs. But in our case, everyone on this table is a damage dealer except for a few support. So why don’t we even the teams out?"
"Still doesn’t solve the problem of who Jake is going to pick though." Peter said and then he saw Jake smile before he turned towards Humfree.
"I think I know what to do now. I’m guessing the big three won’t allow for Head General Humfree and the generals to participate right?" Jake asked.
"Exactly! That will be putting too much power in a single team." Paul replied.
"So that means it is left for the rest of us to deal with the competition." Jake sighed and then looked around the table looking at each and every single person on the table wondering who to pick.
’It is obvious I will go with team A, but who would be the remaining two that would accompany me… I can’t play favouritism and let Alex along with Peter be on my team, I have to even the teams out and scatter them around the two teams. Arghhhhhh! This is hard, every single member has their own strengths that it is making it difficult to choose.
And they are waiting for me to pick the teams so they could all begin training hard.’ Jake sighed as he lifted his head to look at everyone again. ’I think this should be the best.’
"Okay! I have made my decision on who should be on which teams." Jake said and everyone sat at the table eagerly waiting to hear his decision.
"For the team A, I will lead the team with two more people. And the first person I want on my team is Peter." Jake announced and Peter began smiling as he always wanted to be on Jake’s team and now he got the chance.
"The reason I chose Peter is although he is strong, he is also aggressive and irrational sometimes which would make the enemy confused and unable to react on time. And I’m sure our enemies would be analysing our fights and since they haven’t seen Peter fight before, it would be hard for them to come up with a strategy. Since I’m guessing the team A of the other guilds would consist of all their damage dealers." Jake said and everybody nodded along understanding what he said.

"The next and last person I want on my team is…" Jake said and he saw everybody looking at him with wide eyes waiting on who he would call meanwhile one person had their head down.
’I know it can’t be me, I’m not strong enough to stand beside him and help him yet. I would be lucky if he chose me for the second team.’ Kate thought as she had her head down.
"Kate! I want her to join my team." Jake said and everyone were confused including Kate who raised her head to look at Jake confused by his choice.
"M…m…me? You want me to join your team?" She asked surprised.
"Yes I do! Although you are a range fighter on a norms, but you are also good when it comes to close quarter combat and which makes you versatile as you using the bow and arrow well will confuse your opponent and make them come close, you could then switch up to close quarter combat catching them off guard. And besides, I trained along side you these past two weeks and I know the monster you have become." Jake said with a smile and Kate’s eyes suddenly got slightly teary.
’Ja… Jake just acknowledged me? He actually wants me to fight alongside him equally? I’m so happy!’ Kate thought with a smile on her face.
"So that is it for team A. Me, Kate and Peter would be team A." Jake announced. "And for team B, I would appoint a leader and he would be the one to pick who he wants for his team and who he wants to side by side with."
"The leader of team B would be Sunny." Jake announced.
"Me? Why me?" Sunny asked.
"You are a wise and calculative man, and you also think rational almost like the generals. So you are definitely the right pick as I trust your judgement in picking the right people for your team." Jake replied and then Sunny smiled before looking around the table.
"Okay without wasting much time, I pick Alex. His strength is well acknowledged and he also has a good head on his shoulder. The next person would be Jack Dem." Sunny said and Jack raised an eyebrow in confusion.
"Huh?! Me?" Jack asked surprised. "Why me? I mean I’m not even part of the guild officially, I’m dragged along."
"Although you are not part of the guild, you are still a core member and I know that if not because you are related to the big three, you would have become an official member. And besides, Sophia is not a core member and she goes out on missions too so why can’t you?" Sunny asked and Jack sighed.
"Fine! I accept. And it has even been long I fought hard. And just so you know Alex, I’m going to be the first to take down my opponent." Jack said with a smile.
"Now I know where I have seen you before." Alex said clicking his fingers. "You are that dude I fought against during the tournament! Honestly, if you are still that weak little dude from before, then you might not stand a chance."
"Hold on! You didn’t even know me till now?! What gives?!" Jack shouted and Jake just chuckled.
’I knew you had a good head on your shoulder sergeant Sunny. You made the right choice by picking Jack as I also feel bad for not taking him on any missions. I really miss the old days when all of us were together and not now where I’m always busy.’ he thought with a sigh when he looked up again.
"So it’s settled then. Team A would consist of Jake, Peter and Kate while team B would consist of Sunny, Alex and Jack. These are the teams that would participate and in turn decide if we will be part of that big four." Jake shouted and everybody cheered loudly.
