As with every boring meeting, the twenty-seventh Grand Hunters Conclave began with a speech from Council Speaker Aileen.
She mentioned that the annual meeting was held after the two-year-long battle against the beasts that emerged from the world's first SSS-Rank Rift, and how Guilds were created, how Federations began forming, independent of each country's government.
Basically just spewing Hunter history like everyone in the hall wasn't well versed in it.
Ambrose had his chin leaning against one palm, eyes half lidded with clear boredom. Gabriel cast him a side glance, after which he reached into his mind via their permanent link.
'You know you'll have people watching you in this, right?'
'Do I look like I give a rat's ass?'
'Fair point.' Gabriel adjusted his sitting. 'Just… try and get into it. She'll talk about the serious stuff eventually.'
As if on cue, Aileen cleared her throat, drawing the attention of all those who'd stopped listening like Ambrose.
