Chp. 2 Training.
The first person to learn that Evans was a player was his parents. Evans was born into a simple family, the three of them lived in an urban area and rented a makeshift house there.
Evans never made a problem though because he did not want to see the faces of his grieving parents once again, as they had in the past.
Evans once committed a major sin and made his father hate him, his family fell apart and the two almost separated.
Little Evans didn't know which was wrong and right back then. Thank goodness everything is back to normal now.
That morning the sound of birds chirping was outnumbered by a four-wheeled machine that suddenly parked right in front of Evans' house.
It was seen a young man in his twenties giving greetings and explaining his purpose here. The man is an employee of the government, he wears all-black clothes from glasses to shoes.
After being invited inside, the employee wasted no time and immediately showed a letter to the three.
The four of them were sitting in the living room, the small, empty room had no decoration other than the tv.
Evans felt the lives of the three of them were perfect, he was so grateful to have the three of them. One by one, memories began to flow in his head, making him nostalgic and grateful to have become part of this family.
Evans saw both his parents shed tears, a strange feeling began to arise again in his chest.
"It's..." A middle-aged man who broke the silence was Evans' father, he gulped his saliva as he read the contents of the letter.
"We'll take Evans to start ten days of training soon." Said the officer who took off his glasses and smiled kindly.
"Can we refuse it? Or, could it be delayed. We would like to be with this only child of Our way, give Us two weeks to be with him." There was a young woman's voice that shook when she asked for it.
As if it had happened so often, this clerk only scratched the back of his head when he heard the answer coming from Mother Evans.
"Sorry, Mom. We understand that you want to spend more time with your son. But here We as emissaries of the government have no ill intention.
Our job is to keep our people concerned. So that we provide the best training and guidance facilities for all prospective players in Indonesia.
Help them adapt and have the skills and knowledge that will be useful in the island later. Create powerful players with the goal of destroying the damn Tower!"
The employee was indeed an expert in his field, he managed to make both parents Evans unable to say anymore.
**
Perhaps because the room did not have enough ventilation, the atmosphere of the room turned to heat. It seems that Father and Mother Evans are still arguing with the employee until it takes until noon.
As if Evans already knew who would come out victorious, he appeared with a bag now attached to his back.
They are now in the yard, Evans parents take turns hugging each other tightly and seem to want to make it difficult to breathe.
"Hiks, Hicks. Fight as much as you can, son, keep yourself there." A mother cried with a wave of her hand, while the father turned and went into the house, "Fight!" He shouted from inside their house.
Evans smiled faintly and turned around, his feelings becoming better for leaving him. He slowly walked away and got into a black luxury car.
**
"You have a wonderful family, your parents look attentive."
"Thank you."
Along the way they chatted a lot and got to know each other, even the employee looked comfortable and open to Evans.
"Hm... I used to pick someone up. The family seemed happy to know his son was a player."
The officer told me that the family he met was strange. No one refused to take her child, they even helped her pack.
"It looks like the prospective player is considered a crazy person. I don't know what's going on there either. But he says his son has supernatural powers, makes his family harassed and continues to get misfortune."
Evans just kept quiet and listened. After several hours passed, they finally arrived at the military base. Where they spent ten days of training.
The building and everything is very large and spacious and all in green. The facilities there are also very complete ranging from swimming pools, libraries, canteens, dormitories, and a very large field.
"Finally. We'll follow me from behind." The official said after parking his black Mercedes-Benz.
They walked into one of the buildings and made Evans fill out the player form there.
After that Evans was required to pass a safety checking procedure and several series of processes, such as medical check-up, front-back shooting, weight and height measurements.
After passing through the process, Evans finally arrived at the dorm door and held the doorknob.
"Corsec."
The dormitory there is divided into two, male and female dormitories. Each dormitory is the same, only one large room with a large number of mattresses.
"Where do I sleep." Inner Evans who was smiling awkwardly saw many people had filled one room. Evans then walked around until he finally found an empty spot for him.
After Evans found an empty bed, suddenly three men in army uniforms emerged from behind the entrance. A bald and mustachioed man was the leader of the other two.
"Good afternoon, my dear friends." The old man smirked, he turned to make sure that everyone had listened, but he was astonished to see that there were still some people asleep.
"Ehem!" The leader coughed a little then looked at the two dashing youths behind him.
The two young men instantly understood the intent of his conception, and replied with a nod. They came closer to the dozens of people who were looking at him.
"Welcome, in our humble home. Make yourself comfortable as if you're on an excursion." A friendly and friendly expression was displayed by the leader.
"Include me, my name is Henri. My profession? I happen to be an instructor here. I was assigned to train the would-be players and, providing Hell-like training for the next ten days."
"Cloth."
"Cloth."
Two young men in army uniforms miraculously appeared near the sleeping man. They each gave a hard slap and continued to approach one by one other sleeping people.
"So, I'll repeat it again. Make yourself comfortable..." Henri's smiling face turned cold.
Henri and two of his subordinates left by inviting people who had just woken up from their sleep. They made confused and frightened expressions, they were forced to follow Henri from behind.
**
Evening, the group appeared with pale white faces and tired. Sweat poured down on their forehead, suddenly the group provoked a commotion in the room. Seeing that some guards appeared and shouted.
"Silent. You'll wake up in the morning!" The guards glared towards the prospective player. As the situation became restrained, no one dared to make a sound.
That night everyone had trouble sleeping, except one person. If an ordinary person would definitely find it difficult to fall asleep, but somehow he was able to fall asleep soundly that night. As if nothing was happening there.
**
At 3am, they were all awakened by a very loud alarm. Everyone was forced to get up by a group of guards.
Some who are difficult to wake up are forced to be sprayed with cold water. But because there are still people who fall asleep after being watered, they are carried in crowds to the apple field.
"It's still 3 in the morning, isn't it? What the fuck is with all this?"
"Hoam.. Isn't this training inhumane?"
"This, where?!" (the people who were carried into the field)
On the field one person stood up gallantly, hands folded back and smiling with pride. She is Sadistic Instructor Henri. That morning, Henri wore orange glasses and his brown cowboy hat.
Instructor Henri believes that prospective players are currently confused and surprised to receive this kind of treatment.
Imagining it made Instructor Henri very excited. But without Instructor Henri realizing there was one person who remained calm. He stood up and woke up the fittest.
"Morning, fellows!"
Dozens of people lined up and formed two rows. Perhaps due to enduring the overwhelming drowsiness, they silently remained silent not answering the greetings from Instructor Henri.
"This morning, the weather was very clear. Therefore be thankful, I will not give you a talk that will make you die of boredom. Straight away, I say today your training officially begins."
Instructor Henri then explained the exercises they would receive.
First apple in the morning at three in the morning.
Then a short workout until breakfast.
Continued until lunch hour.
Primary physical exercise.
And it ends with an apple the night until dinner.
That's what everyone will do for the next ten days.
"I think you'll understand. First a short workout until breakfast meal arrives. You will be lovingly guided, by the Assistant Instructors behind. So have fun."
Instructor Henri's laughter was heard echoing in the ears of prospective players.
