I trained as a Guard for a week... I was doing this for Preparation for my plan to move away from Scrible for good.
On the Training ground within the city Barracks the Person they regarded as the Guard Captain introduce me to the entire City guards. & Assigned me to form a group to fellow rookies thus they give us task, lecture, & combat training that lasted for a week.
The member is Jonathan, Mercer, Theresa & the last is Me.
Jonathan is a young man with brightly colored brown hair & eye. His is a cheerful talkative, single minded man who naively believes in justice & dreams to be a hero someday.
Mercer is a Dark skinned youth with gray hair & black pupils. A quiet man with a few words, despite that he is good at dual swords & logical at most times. He & Jonathan is childhood friends, Mercer regard Jonathan in high esteem he saw him as his leader subconsciously. His dream is to continuesly follow Jonathan & be beside him throughout his escapades.
Theresa is a very beautiful young prodigy she is a genius, Possessing a pretty Golden hair, blue eyes & fair white complexion. no wonder almost all Guard were secretly aiming for her hand. including Jonathan & Surprisingly Mercer too... Theresa have a gentle yet very strict personality she also have a strong sense of Justice. She is a
Magic Swordsman she use a Shield & a Rapier magic sword. Her dream which she secretly tells me when we were on a night duty is to build a
Matriarchy kingdom & be a ruling queen..... apparently she intensely hates men... Somehow I felt sorry for all the male guards... I wonder why?
****
They give us some lecture then question & answer test, For example...
What will you do if you're lost in the forest & you no longer have food Supplies?
Jonathan: Hunt some food!
Mercer: follow Jonathan & hunt.
Theresa: The forest is blessed & have plenty of edible herbs & fruits, knowing each of its kinds is a must.
Me: Eat monsters Eat Everything.
Or question like this.
You're surrounded by a group of Goblins what will you do?
Jonathan: Fight!! I can defeat them they are just Goblins!
Mercer: support Jonathan with all I have.
Theresa: shoot a Warning Signal, or use any Emergency message as soon as I found Myself in such situations & look for a escape route if possible & don't panic, don't over estimate & don't underestimate them. look for a retreat as fast as possible.
Me:.... Murder them, eat them, torture them & make them regret they exist.
Those were some of the few question they ask...& Somehow I got a failing mark at the question & answer test.
Theresa is the group leader Jonathan want to be leader too. but Theresa mercilessly beat him instead in all aspects of being a good leader. she is strict but she knows how to use our strength & making plans, adjust to it... Surprisingly she manage to utilize me unlike Jonathan who just out right isolated me from the team... He did it without any malice he is just dumb that all.
Theresa Concluded that I'm very hard to use if common sense is applied to me. That what she confirmed after spending a short time with me of course also she got scared when I ate a Goblin that our team fought right before their eyes. But she adapt very quickly unlike the two male. She even very patiently teach me how to cook....
Now I know how to cook a Skewer at the Very least.
Don't know why she is Kind to me. But I think its not because she like me or anything. perhaps its just because I'm a fellow female like her? thats why she is very tolerate with me?.. Dunno Not sure~... I only know is that she really hates men.
With Theresa as the Leader & attacker, Jonathan as the Tank, Mercer for Support, & Me who she left incharge of scouting, when there is a fight she said I am left on my own device attack the enemies in my own accord. in short I'm a all rounder.. but I must still follow her order of course.
Because of that we became a functioning team even thought I'm with them.
****
Lecture, Team fight coordination pratice, Border patrol, Night Duty, city patrol, Camping in the wilderness & Catching Criminal inside the city.
One week past, our team became more & more coordinated thanks to Theresa Magnificent display of leadership to the point that Jonathan & Mercer is
dead head over hills inlove with her. But of course, she Magnificent ignore them outside of duty.
Finally the final exam... The Guard Captain said there is a report of distress Signal..
the message said "Captured by goblins"... The Captain says we must complete this task as our Final exam.
We attack the new created Goblins nest.... at one point or another Theresa find out I'm not a human but some sort of monster or something entirely. I don't know how she knew, but she knows it & not scared of it.
She ask me to scout... entering the shadow I find 20 goblin & the hostage 2 female who is about to be raped. I restrained the 2 goblins who will attack the victims with tendrils breaking their neck. I reassured the victim that they will be saved & return to the team.
Giving to Theresa & Co the full details , the cave Structure & position of the Goblins. we attack them... I remain inside the shadow & provide assistance with My Shadowy Tentacles, & Black magic Bullet that pierced the Goblins. While also directing them to the right way avoiding traps.
Eventually we kill most of the Goblins and reach the boss room. A Hobgoblin its strong but Theresa is very good at giving orders. Jonathan & Mercer have a very good coordination they parry each attack of the Hobgoblin, Theresa attack the Vitals & use magic to damage the enemy. while I use tendrils to grab & pierce him from the shadow. I give the last attack by Theresa's Orders Emerging from the shadow & Decapitated the Hobgoblins head with
My Axe & My Cleaver immediately when it lost its footing.
We rescued the two female captive which I covered in shadow By My magic to hide them so that the Goblins won't see them in the dark. in case they use them a meat shield against us, this is suggestion of Theresa towards me which I did. thankfully it actually works the goblin really did not see them.
And so we completed the one week training including the final exam & part ways.
