Hero Jentaka
Chp.15 Elite military

Xernathan prepared many types of medicinal plants that were found in the ship's warehouse to treat people after passing through the storm later tonight.

"Hey, stay away from that lamp over your head.."

"You in black, how old are you? Get in there into the cabin." Xernathan was most visibly busy that afternoon. Defeat the ship's abk who cleans and also prepares food for later tonight.

Captain Morgan, who saw Xernathan's actions, left everything the boy was doing on his ship.

It was already dark towards midnight there was no sign of bad weather coming towards them other than the occasional lightning that struck the lake water.

Most of the children had fallen asleep and the rest were crying from homesickness.

Xernathan was still awake outside the ship while training his sword swing.

"Here we go.." Xernathan muttered softly feeling the drops of water fall on his forehead.

The rain that comes does not start from a small drizzle. When the second first drop falls on Xernathan's forehead, it is directly followed by droplets numbering billions or even more than trillions of other drops.

The dense clouds engulfed the ship and the strong wind met the surface of the water making the lake water that was originally calm into waves as high as five to ten meters.

"Captain!" One of the abks frantically entered the master room.

"If a storm comes this big our ship won't survive, we'll have to lower the anchor."

"Fuck heii, here you are I'm the captain, don't drop the anchor, develop the ship's main sail."

"Si. ready captain.."

The ship's abk heard the order feeling something was wrong with the head of the bearded man before him, but keep doing the captain's orders because this man in front of him could be deadlier for him than even a storm.

Glegg.. The ship's captain gulped down alcohol with two long gulps while he was alone in the ship's captain's room.

"The fun will begin.." Said the man with a smile adorning his face.

Yaaaakk.. Dozens of ship abks shouted in unison pulling the rope that became the main mast anchoring the largest sail on the ship.

Fifteen-meter-high waves rushed towards their ship. The ship and the waves in front of it will be a head fight in less than a minute.

"THIS DIAA.. SIALAAN'S SHIP SAW THE WAVES AND FLEW AWAY.." Captain Morgan shouted like crazy while holding the steering wheel of the ship and a lever in his hand.

The ship, which was loaded with many people on it, flew about ten meters in the air and crashed on the water, causing several powerful shocks.

The people inside were slammed and things were scattered everywhere.

Small shocks were still felt when the previous shocks had passed the ship. The people on board were lightly injured by the violent impact and almost all of them vomited up the stomach contents from dinner last night.

"Aaakhh the waves are still lacking.." Said the captain of the ship while gulping down alcohol.

"Hey, you're fat here, take the wheel"

"The.. Ready captain.. Hueekk.." The face of the fat man was pale and still spewing out his stomach.

The captain of the heavily bearded ship went out of the steering room towards the cabin where almost all the children had gathered.

"Damn it's so weak, just hit by a small shock already battered like this.." Said the captain of the ship stepping over every child who was vomiting and limp in the ship's aisle.

"Here you chew.." Xernathan gave a medicinal plant to each child who felt nausea in his stomach.

"It's this drink.."

"Hey, you don't throw up on the floor and the person next to you will vomit because you see you." Xernathan arranged for every child in the cabin, hundreds of them.

"This boy.." The ship's captain saw Xernathan.

Huaaah.. A child yawns and looks like nothing happened to him before.

Captain Morgan held his chin as he looked at the three people. "Only three people managed to survive."

Outside the storm was still raging but there were no big waves as severe as before. Xernathan and two other children were gathered in the wheelhouse.

Xernathan feels alien to one child other than Theodore. Xernathan had no recollection in his first life of having known this child. The boy's black eyes and straight hair felt foreign to him.

"Look at my eyes as I speak" Captain Morgan said as the head of another child lowered and did not want to stare at the face of the heavily bearded man.

"I want to explain some reason why we kidnapped you guys from 'place, but before that I want to know what your names are."

"The thick beard of my name is Theodorus.." Said Theodorus in his outspoken manner.

"I'm Xernathan.."

"This handsome man Sanji.."

"Alright then I'll explain" Captain Morgan leaned against the steering wheel of the ship. Let the abk who steered the ship stand up.

"My name is Morgan." Said captain Morgan with a pause for a while as he sipped some alcohol for a while.

"I am an elite member of the military navy division assigned to kidnap children like you for conscription."

From his first life Xernathan recently found out who was the mastermind of this kidnapping was a military general. These abductions were carried out based on the interests of the state of Centuri but many deaths of minors occurred due to the mental inadequacy of these children.

"What we do is decide unilaterally. But the many mafia and psychopathic communities in the country of Centuri made no other choice for us than to look for seeds and great talents from all over the country Centuri to be made a member military elite." Morgan told as clearly as possible so that the three children in front of him did not feel confused.

"Najiss." Theodorus spat in any direction upon hearing the captain's explanation.

"Hey you don't interrupt my explanation just listen until I'm done talking" Morgan didn't think of the biggest child among the other two.

"You could have said that it doesn't matter this country. But you can't possibly refuse what you can get if you succeed in becoming a military elite"

"If you look at my usual form like this maybe you won't be interested in becoming a military elite.

But if you know I have a net worth of hundreds of thousands of gold, can you still ignore it?"

Theodorus' eyes widened for a moment when he heard Captain Morgan's words. "Would I be a military elite, be richer than you?"

"Of course, even the higher-ups in the military have property up to millions of pieces of gold.. You know Theo? even every year, there were at least ten members of the military elite who entered into the ranks of the richest people in this Centuri country."

Hukkkkkkk.. Theodorus choked on his own breath when he heard the words of Captain Morgan.

Seeing the reaction of Xernathan and Sanji that seemed like normal, captain Morgan continued his explanation.

"Maybe you think if you become a military elite you will only get treasures huh? Sure didn't.

More than just a treasure, you can get a position up to the power of even the highest power in this Centuri country."

Sanji clenched his hand. Started to react with an explanation from captain Morgan.

"You're an amethyst-eyed child.." Captain Morgan calls Xernathan.

Haadhkk.. The captain of the heavily bearded ship reacted to the alcohol he drank. Unable to hold back facial expressions while enduring the burning sensation in his esophagus.

"What do you want just mention I want to know, if there's a wish in this life that you can't get as a member of the military elite I'll send you back to the Cyclops island with the other kids.." Captain Morgan said as he narrowed his eyes.

"What did you say? They're all going to be sent back to where they came from?" Xernathan's eyes were wide-eyed not believing what He was hearing. In his first life Xernathan takes his younger brother Gavin further along with him to take the test of becoming a military elite. Without him realizing if giving up like this then the children will be returned to their respective places of origin.

If only Xernathan had known this he would have preferred to give up and go home without having to take the exam that tormented him and his sister.

"Of course.." Captain Morgan replied briefly.
