20 Chapter 20: Camp Tour (1/2)
After getting off the boat and unloading the supplies the group started to head towards the camp while the boats started to head back to Sanloris. As they were walking toward the camp the group of recruits and staff members started to discuss what kind of place their boss wanted to bring them.
They're discussion stop when they saw that it seems that they have already arrived at their destination. As they enter the camp the group keeps looking around, like country bumpkins first time to visit a city.
Razlov brought the group to the training field in front of the office building, he ordered them to assemble in the training field. He went up the platform, where he stands and look at the group below.
”Everyone, welcome to Selov base!” Razlov said it loud enough for everyone to hear.
”From now on this base is where you will work especially for those who signed up as a mercenary. Although this kind of work has high risk it also has high reward. This base will operate as a training camp and command center for our missions in the future. You all will be the pioneers of this mercenary group but I prefer to call it private force since we will not be like those ragtag mercenary group as we are an organized group. I know you've heard about a rumor that this sea is cursed but please don't just believe in those stories, you must first see it with your own eyes before you believe in those stories.”
After he finishes his speech, Razlov looks at the group and ask. ”If there are any questions just raise your hand?”
The seems to be wondering what kind of question they should ask since some of the questions they had on mind was already answered by the contract they signed were the terms and conditions are written. The group started their discussion while Razlov just waited for them and if no one asks a question within a minute then he will proceed to the next step. After a while, a girl slowly raises her hand.
”Hmm, if I remember correctly your name is Lesia.” he looks at the girl then continue ”What do you want to ask?”
”What kind of training we will undergo? Is our training just like those of kingdom's army were we have to train in swords and bows?” ask Lesia
”Good question” Razlov praise her ”I was just about to talk about this later but because you ask this question I will tell you now. First, all of you will undergo physical training for a month to improve your stamina and endurance. Second, the weapons that you all will train in is not swords or bows but a new weapon called 'gun'. I know you all are confused about what kind of weapon is a gun but don't worry as I will show it to you all later.”
”Are there any other questions?” Razlov waited for a while then said: ”Since there are no further questions then let us proceed for a tour around the base. And since we are already here I will start the introduction of different buildings and fields. Right now you are standing on the training field, all mercenary recruits must assemble here at exactly 5:30 AM in the morning and all you must wake up at 5:00 AM, you'll only be given 30 minutes to prepare and eat your breakfast. Then the building in front of you is the office building where all the paper works are to do that is also where my own office is located and if you have some questions to ask you can find me in that building. Now onto the next location.”
Razlov and the group started to walk towards where the cafeteria is located. As they were walking toward the cafeteria, Razlov told them something that he almost has forgotten: ”Oh, and also from now on all of you must address me as 'Commander' or 'Commander Razlov'.”
Arriving at the cafeteria the group was amazed by at its size and style since it's their first time seeing such a building. The group was even more surprised when they saw the glass windows, they could not believe it because glass is an expensive item that only rich people can buy it and it was even more expensive because the glass is clear making you see what's on the other side.
Razlov didn't mind the commotion the group was making he just cough for them to quieten down then he started introducing the cafeteria: ” This building is the cafeteria where you get to eat your meals and this is also the workplace of the cooks. Miss Carla, Miss Emilia, Miss Mila, and Miss Anna from now on this will be where you will be working. Now let's go inside for you all to see and also bring the supplies we've brought.”
”Commander” As Razlov just finish talking, Ella who is part of the staff members raises her hand. Ella is one of the cleaners/ maids that he hired.
