21 Steal the Flag 5 (1/2)
Drill instructor Wei who had been observing from the second floor nodded his head.
'The Western Army had better military strength and tactics. However, Han who had been placed the sweeper had exceeded everyone's expectations. There are times when everything becomes futile.'
Drill instructor Wei blew his whistle.
The youths of class B assembled. The youths of the Eastern Army couldn't hide their smiles, while the Western Army youths were clouded with misery.

”Everyone did well. Lead commanders come forth and explain your battle tactics.”
Jose from the Western Army stepped forward first. Jose flashed a proud smile and looked to his team.
”Ah, first let me say sorry to my Western Army teammates. It was my mistake. We decided to give up the lower rocky terrain route, instead we would all rush through the upper rocky terrain and backtrack the same way we came from. That is also the reason why we had deployed more military forces through the upper and middle routes. The Eastern Army assaulters used the lower route, however I had judged our rangers would be able to be quicker to capture the flag.”
Jose and the rangers of the Western Army had wasted more time than they had predicted against Han.
In that time period, the Eastern Army assaulters broke through the lower route. Jose ended his battle tactics. Drill instructor Wei nodded his head.
”Next Eastern Army lead commander Karlheinz.”
Everyone clapped for the victorious lead commander. Karlheinz proudly boasted with his head held high and explained his own battle tactics.
He decided against using any rangers, he would deploy all his military troops to the lower path to break through to the enemy's central command post.
”.... Instead of using Han's skills as a ranger or assaulter, I deployed him as the sweeper in case the rangers of the enemy team would reach the flag before us. I judged that Han had the capability to buy us time for our victory. My judgment had hit the bulls eye. This summarizes the basic reason for our victory.”
Though this had started from a personal grudge, Han had greatly contributed for their victory. Everyone knew they could only win because Han was able to endure for them.
'He's very eloquent. He didn't have a shred of those thoughts in the beginning. He should publicize a novel.'
Han quietly laughed.
Karlheinz used his gift of gab to explain Han's placement as his own battle tactics.
Han didn't bother mentioning complaints. He was sensible enough not to ruin everyone's cheerful mood.
”Everyone is dismissed.”
Drill instructor Wei announced and left the gymnasium.
The youths all returned to their dormitory. Everyone was engrossed in discussing today's mock battle.
”When did you learn javelin throwing, Han?”
Jose massaged his aching back and asked. Han let out a small laugh.
”I can't use telekinesis like Kuro, but I thought fine tuning my strength with telekinesis was a plausible solution. If I failed, nothing could be helped. But, it would be better than doing nothing, right? The idea suddenly popped into my head and I went ahead and tried it.”
”Good for you.”
Jose couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
He wasn't one to become competitive, but he was also a man. Han was his friend, but also his rival, and he had lost.
It would be strange if he weren't frustrated at all.
”Just try harder next time, Jose.”
”Just you wait.”
Once everyone returned to their dorms, it was free period. They usually passed the time with extra training with their personal equipments. Han entered the psychic skills training hall for extra practice.
'That wasn't such a bad feeling. I shouldn't forget my focus and how I enhanced my body.'
