Chapter 58: The Examination
I've been training for four years, but I still can't use my true strength.
"Zain, you've done your best" said Master Glenn.
"Yes, Master."
"I told you, I don't want to be called Master."
"I can't ignore that, Master."
I am currently training with Master Glenn, in the military camp of the capital Maphas. Like a savage, I cannot give any significant resistance.
Name: Zain Aither
Race : Human
Level 912
Job: Swordmaster
Title: Dark Hero
I have only climbed ten levels since the war back then, there is no way to speed up leveling up. Even the raid dungeon along with the residents of Liche did not exert a great influence. The good news is, I managed to reach the Swordmaster stage, plus I was able to use the Assassin skill thanks to my "Dark Hero" title. But, my level is not worth my stats, more precisely I can lose to a person who has a level below me like Master Glenn. The problem is that my experience is lacking.
"I'm a little confused by the experience you need to level up, you should have been more than your current level" said Master Glenn.
"Maybe because I'm a former hero."
"That sounds reasonable."
If noticed, Master Glenn looked even more different at the moment. His aura was more subtle, even when fighting with him I felt that all my attacks seemed to have been read by him.
"Let's go back to where the soldiers are."
We went to the training camp. Located in the suburban forest, there is a fairly large field there. Forty cadets were practicing combat with each other, most of them warriors and swordmen. For official soldiers, currently they were assigned to guard the border area, there were also those who became special forces under the orders of the six women.
Our two tasks are just training the cadets, once their abilities are qualified, we give them the option to join which division. Actually Master Glenn has a special division called Black Crow, is a special assassin under Miss Selene's direct orders.
We don't open recruits openly, new members are sought by watching out for talent-only cadets. The advantage of being a member of the Black Crow is the freedom to use firearms, we are free to use any type of firearm. I think the firearms we have are destroying the balance of power between nations.
Master Glenn and I stood on the wooden podium to greet the cadets. Seeing that, the cadets directly lined up in front of us.
"The cadets! You will soon graduate from this training. As a soldier, don't let the enemy shake you mentally! Start choosing the division you are going to!" Master Glenn gave a short encouraging speech.
It was really like seeing a warrior from within Master Glenn, more like a warrior in my former world. I won't be surprised, because Master Glenn has already told me his true identity. It's just that I don't know what kind of person he was in his old life.
"Disperate line!"
"Ready!" The cadets disbanded and returned to the military dormitory.
The twilight light began to show, a sign for people to end their activities today.
"Zain, you've heard the news, haven't you?"
"Here you go, Master."
Queen Daisy Maphas has resurrected. It is also a declaration against the enemy to start being vigilant from now on. What caught my attention was ... Miss Hart. She also appears alongside the return of Queen Daisy.
"The news is already widespread, the event will be held in two days. Prepare yourself."
"Good."
A major tournament, Queen Daisy announces that who can defeat her Prime Minister, Alissa Hart, will be awarded a big prize and be entitled to have Alissa Hart.
"It's ridiculous."
What is the purpose of holding this tournament? Miss Hart will be fine.
"I'm going to go." Master Glenn left with a black shadow that engulfed his body.
There is one thing that holds my mind. Where is the person whom the six women call Mother? He must be the tallest man in the kingdom, Keres Vasilissa. I suspected earlier that Alissa Hart and Keres Vasilissa were the same person, but all of that was pushed aside by the difference in strength between the two of them. I did not feel any power at all in Keres, but in contrast to Miss Hart, her aura was always strong.
I went a little into the woods, the suburbs are starting to go out of sight. The temperature gets colder when it goes deeper, but this forest is not dark, because sunlight can still enter freely from between the leaves.
This is a great place to clear your mind.
I stood leaning against a tree, folded my hands, and whistled. The air was blowing so slowly that it made me get carried away by this comfort.
"Huh?" I feel the wind getting stronger.
*wush!
A loud sound like a sword being blasted into the wind.
There's someone here.
I followed the origin of the voice by hiding my presence using Stealth.
There was a place that was much illuminated by the sun, the trees in that place seemed to be spaced apart. I slowly approached the place to check who was making the source of the sound.
"What's he doing here?"
It looked like a woman was swinging her sword at that spot. His sword swing was smooth and extremely beautiful, the aura traces on each of his swings formed like a symbol.
Miss Hart. He's training at this place? Moreover, her appearance looked different from before, especially her hair and clothes. The sword he used, wasn't it a katana?
"Come out" said Miss Hart, swinging her sword.
As expected, a skill like this would not be able to trick him.
I came out of hiding and approached Miss Hart.
"As expected, Miss Hart, you can tell where I am."
"Hand Master, huh?"
"You can call me Zain, Miss Hart. I'm not a hero anymore."
"Oh, yeah." Miss Hart stopped the swing of her sword and fully looked towards me. A sword without a handle stuck in front of him.
She was completely different like any other woman. I don't know why my heart is beating so fast.
"So, what brings you to this place, Zain?"
"Ah, I just finished training at the training camp. Right now I just want to enjoy the afternoon atmosphere in this forest."
"Mmmm ...." Miss Hart glanced at my gear. "The sword and the dagger, huh? Looks like you've been working hard."
"Thank you, Miss Hart. I'm trying to be stronger."
"More powerful for what?"
Miss Hart's question instantly made me speechless.
I can't answer it, I'll die of shame if I answer the question.
"Nothing, huh? Your stance is still lacking, it looks like Glenn is not good at training you-"
"No!" cut me.
"Huh?"
"I want to be strong to get your recognition!"
Miss Hart was silent at once, her eyes staring intently at me. But his expression looked as usual, cold.
What nonsense have I told you?!
