Then Ryuji said. "Perhaps because Rei-oh knows that there are more ordinary humans than the Shield Race, that's why he makes use of the important human figures that he can command to rule over all the other humans, and that way he can control and manage everything from behind the scenes smoothly."
"That must have been going on for hundreds of years right? So who is the main figure currently controlling the government? Is the President a race of shields too?" Ask Alex.
"Yeah, that's possible, but we've never felt a very strong life force from the President's body... So it's highly likely that Rei-oh's descendants still rule and play a role in governing this country behind the scenes."
"But, are they still evil until now?"
"Oh yeah, As we all know, discrimination against the sword race is still happening today, isn't it?"
"Ye- yeah, i guess?"
"Perhaps you still don't know Alex... But, the discrimination that occurs, is actually far more severe than just a regulation of limiting sharp weapons ... The government goes even further by forming a special force assigned to hunt down the sword race, and every sword race that they have captured, will never be heard from again."
"W- what?"
"That troop called the GRIM Taskforce... Not only hunting down the members of the Sword of freedom group, they also don't hesitate to arrest our group members. So we must always be careful in our actions. So that our movements are not known to them."
"O- okay."
"I hope you don't have to deal with them Alex . . . That's why you should always be on the lookout."
"O- ouh, I get it." said Alex. He was a little confused, because he didn't know and had never met the GRIM Taskforce in person.
Then Billy gave an order to Ryuji.
"Ryuji, I know it's sudden... But, in lieu of Ren, I'm asking you to help train Alex in the sword technique."
Suddenly Billy's words made Alex and Ryuji stunned, so Ryuji then said.
"But, I have no experience when it comes to training people."
"Sorry Ryuji, but we have no other choice... So I beg you to take over this task."
"Hmm, fine then."
So after that, Ryuji immediately stood up from his chair, and he invited Alex to go home.
"Oh yeah, looks like your mother will be home soon, so you should be home before she arrives." Ryuji said to Alex.
"O- oh, yes you're right." Alex replied.
"Hmm, fine then. I'm glad that you guys have come here. I hope that everything will be fine from now on." Billy said.
"Yeah, we hope so too. Get well soon Billy." Ryuji said.
"Yeah, you should get well soon and get back to leading us." Alex added.
"Of course."
"Let's go ... See you Billy." Ryuji and Alex said goodbye.
"Yes, be careful on the way home."
Finally Alex and Ryuji left the clinic, on their way home, they chatted while walking down a quiet residential street lit by street lamps.
"Alex."
"Yes."
"Starting tomorrow, you just continue the technique you learned from Ren, oke." Ryuji said.
"Eumm, alright... But earlier, why did you said, you didn't have experience of training people? You can start it with me now."
"...Hmm, I can't Alex. There's a reason why I can't train other people, so it's best if you practice the technique Ren taught you, okay?"
"Well then, okay."
"So... Are you ready for tomorrow Alex?" Ryuji asked.
Then while continuing to stare ahead, Alex answered. "Of course, I'm ready."
A new day that will be faced by Alex, is a new page that he will fill with a new story of his struggle to become stronger, as well as a new fight against every enemy he must defeat. With the enthusiasm he got from his friends, Alex was sure that he would always be able to overcome any problem, and achieve his goal of creating peace for the sword race and shield race.
Long story short, 2 months have passed since the incident and big Battle between the Wind Faction versus the Sword of Freedom. Now the situation has returned to normal for the members of the Wind Faction, each of them has their own business, for example Rusty who sells Corndogs, and Ara who is both a cook and a waitress at his small restaurant. Most of them carry out normal activities like ordinary humans.
But some of them of course still carry out their main task, namely eradicating the shadow demon that resides in the human body. For Examples are Billy, Max, and Miran. At night they still go hunting and fight against the shadow demons who want to dominate the human body and use it to bad things. Billy and the others, did this activity to reduce the threat of the demon race creation, because as we know, if the shadow demon has fulfilled the human's desire to the maximum extent, then those demon can control the human body, so next a demon with a human body will born with great power, and of course that was the highest level threat to the Wind Faction group, especially to humanity. Plus now the Demon King's power has been successfully awakened by Jefirros, and that of course will trigger the birth of a large number demon races.
