Later that night the whole camp was eating around the fire, Griffith learned more about guts and how he could tell that they're Grimm near him however the feeling is like a stabbing sensation in the back of his neck, Griffith chalked this as his semblance, but Guts has his doubts. Especially when a semblance is meant to help in battle, but what he has also drawn in those grim near him he kept that part private to himself. Then Gambino appears with a short bald man next to him.

"Alright shut up and listen, I'm sure that you are aware that we got a new face here. He will be shadowing us for the following year." He glanced at Griffith

"but you are going to be pair up with Guts he's proven his worth" he explains as guts just fell into a slump upon hearing this, with that he looks at the bald man and give him a nod, both walking away the latter heading out of the camp

"Hey who is that" Guts ask, Griffith looks at the man in question giving a cold stare devoid of emotion "that is my master he took me in when I was young... taught me everything I know"  he said looking back at guts with a smile, 'theres differently something wrong with him'.

"So, what's the plan guts, I mean in terms of jobs that is?"

"Will, I am assigned to a nearby village on the mainland. I have to survey the area for grim" as Guts explained, Griffith is shocked to hear this

"all by yourself with no help"  find it kind of odd to put this much trust on the young black-eyed boy.

"Yeah, Gambino said it the best way to get a strong aura if I waited till I turn third teen "

"Hmm"

"What?"

"Oh, nothing you must look up to Gambino a lot if you take his words to heart" Guts gave a solemn look

"well I do see him as my father and my mother was..." he drifted off with thoughts on his head. Griffith quarry this and ask "what happen to your mother" 

Guts snapped out of his thoughts as he began to think back to his mother "When I was  three, she fell ill for a month then finally she was on her deathbed. She was coughing violently and was sweating heavily. When I went to see her she was kept under constant supervision, she saw me and called for me, but the camp medics told me to leave or I'll get sick."  He paused to take a deep breath

" but I didn't care. I went to her and held her hand, watching her at her final moments."  He wiped off the incoming tears that threatened to come out. "At least she did not die alone. she had someone that cared for her " Griffith thinks he finally understood guts as someone who will go through anything for the ones he cares

—————————————————————-*THREE MONTHS LATER

Both Guts and Griffith became a force to be reckoned with over the short time. They became the leading bread winners for the whole camp and their uneasy start turned into "brothers" in the battlefield, since their numbers began to dwindle down either by dying in action or leaving the group entirely. They began to pick up the slack where others left off, and Griffith begin to have a following and have people falling under him, Guts on the other hand only has gotten better behind the blade however feels as though he need to start using another sword or a larger sword in the near future, however his thought are not on the jobs but on what's his dream should be, he began to respect Griffith for the guy and the potential leader he will be, but he wished to stand on equal ground with him and can't do that if he doesn't have a dream separate from Griffith

As the two boys return from a completed mission, what's lift of the mercenaries began to cheer and celebrate their return

"Look everyone the White Hawk has return"
