30.Crimson Eagle Training Camp (1)
A week has passed since Lex and the other passed the exam
"haa...haa...haa"
“haa… haa… haaaa” a boy running alone on the running track, he have running for a while now, his stamina already at its limit, his body screaming wanting to rest, even with his unsteady running, his gaze alone still have a clear light of determination.
“ganbatte~~”
"haa...haa...haa"
On the middle of the running track there's another boy who's accompanying the running boy, it was Lex, Lex watching the running boy from the middle of the running track, Lex too jogging inside the running track to at least not too far from the running boy
“fighting~~” Lex cheered with a lazy voice “Semagat~~ You can do it~~ Jia you~~”
“if… haa… you don't… haa… wish to… haa… haa…. Cheer haa… then don't do it! Haaaaa… some words…. Haa… I don't… haa…. Understand… ha….” While breathing hard the boy complaint
"haha, it's okay Max, I'm bored~~"
"I'm not okay!!! Haha… ha….”
Max, number 777 was Lex roommate on this training camp
****
All started right after the exam finished, when the exam finished the ship ported at the private island owned by Crimson Eagle
It's a tropical island with a beautiful natural scenery, on the outskirts of the island there's some building which used by Crimson Eagle, that's where the one who passed the exam were sent to
(looks like many of them has failed) Lex thought when he saw the group of children has decreased so clearly
(many of them who’s didn’t passed the first and second exam accepted in the office of Crimson Eagle, while the one who failed the third test immediately sent back by them)
(sorry, considering what Vera explained, the result is obvious)
Lex and the others given three hours to rest, before they gathered in the field on one of the island facility
“I will be your instructor for this training, my name is Venti Crimson” a strong willed woman, wearing an office lady uniform announced before the trainees
Even with her strange getup which not match with this occasion, her aura alone enough to intimidated these young trainees, they all timidly listening to Venti
“once your number called I want you to reply” Venti said “is that clear?”
“...” but the intimidated trainees to afraid to let out their voice, Lex included, even if he didn't get intimidated he still following the wave, following the group, it was Lex bad habit since his past life
Because Venti understand what happened to these trainees, why they are keeping silence she didn't mind it but… “is… that…. CLEAR!?” she still wanted their response
“Y-Yes!!” the trainees simultaneously answered
“now then…” at her command the black suited men come out and started to call the number of the trainees one by one
***
Once all her subordinate finished calling the trainees number “is there anyone not in the list?” Venti asked
"if not, then-"
"here!!" Lex cut Venti words, as he stepped out of the line, Venti stare at Lex intensely
Her gaze as intense as Vera gaze were, but Lex too wasn't a normal child which can be intimidated easily, he confronted Venti gaze with his own.
After a second the first to change gaze was Venti, not because she's lose or afraid, it's only because she wanted to check the paper in her hands
“hm…, the special guest huh~~” Venti muttered “ok, from now on called yourseld Zero!”
“as you wish” Lex replied with a frown
The receiving end Lex can only accept it even if he didn't like the nickname, that's his status as trainees, he showed a dissatisfied look on the outside but actually…
(whoa!! Zero!! So cool!! This big sis understands!!! Ok I'll respect you!!)
(‘it’s troublesome to remember unnecessary name) Venti thought as she saw Lex Spifer name on her last list of number, sadly the reality is always cruel!
****
The trainees were given a shared room of two after some explanation how they gonna live on this place, then the trainees given free time till the next morning
there are many rules on this place, but the most important one is only “Trainees prohibit from stepping out of the training camp facility”
the facility was big like a school. They have anything necessary for everyday life, like room, cafeteria, shower room, etcetera, so even if they are not allowed to step out of this training camp, the Trainees wouldn't be inconvenient and as expected from training camp every punishment was corporal punishments,
But only the one who's broke the rule “step out of the training camp” which was punished by banished from the training camp,
everyone here has agreed to the condition so the trainees don't have the right to complaint about corporal punishment too. all of the trainees here were desperate to enter this camp, so even without punishment no one will break any rule in this camp, in the end the punishment was only for appearance sake
on the way to his designated room, there's a few things that Lex realize
(I'm the only one here who's a Guest, the rest were all numbers!)
(Venti… the instructor said I'm special too, but still what happened to the other Guest? They cannot be failed, at least three Guest passed but not here)
(which mean there are other facility? But there's about more than 1 thousand here so it's unthinkable for them to have another separate facility for training camp and there's about I'm special too)
(….)
(what's the different between me and the rest??)
Lex thought it deep, but he still did not get the answer when he arrived to his room
*clack
As he opened the room door….
A scrawny boy half naked standing in front of the door as if he's welcoming Lex.
“…!?”
(what the ****!!!!)
(did I get into the wrong room!?)
Then Lex quickly check the room number….
(Damn! This is my room!? Which mean he's my roommate? A gay!? What the hell!? What kind of punishment is this!!! F**K!!!!!!!!!!)
(haa…haa….)
(ok, Lex calm down, he's only a ten years old, maybe there's a misunderstanding here… for now let's prepare my hand to punch him at any minute)
(mm, let's go with this)
“… what are you doing?” he asked while frowning, if a gaze can kill, Lex's gaze can kill him more than hundred times by now
“cleaning” the boy replied with a smile, sadly he's to scrawny to look good, maybe if he were to hide his scrawny body he may give a good impression
The boy was scrawny someone who don't have enough to eat while he's growing, her hair is light brown, he is a bit smaller than Lex, because Lex only has an average boy body, so he's smaller than average boy,
"cleaning?" Lex asked in confusion, he just can't understand the relation between cleaning and being half-naked
(can he be a pervert as I thought!? Do I punch him now? Aaaaa, but his eyes look so pure!!)
(suuu… haa…) after taking a deep breath to calm himself Lex asked the boy once again
“then why are you looking like that?”
"oh, that's right I'm not in the orphanage anymore, I'm sorry!" the boy quickly bow down to Lex as he apologies
(mm? he did not like someone who's lying too, pheww… looks like its only my misunderstanding he's not pervert)
“it's a habit!” the boy said
(PERVERRTTT!!!!)
(wait! Did he just say orphanage? Ok I'll forgive you this time the next time I seen you like this again I'm going to punch straight to your face ok, brace yourself)
(Let's ask the instructor to change my room, at least I need to stay away from him)
“in the orphanage, we don't have many change of clothes, so we usually looking like this when cleaning the room so that we don't dirty our clothes or damaged them” he said with some nostalgia feeling in his eyes
(urkk!!?)
(my chest…! My heart…!! This guilty feeling!! So heavy!!)
“when I came into the room, I saw the room a bit dusty here and there, so I thought I can clean it first so it's more comfortable for us live in”
(UGHH!!!?? I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Forgive me!!! I won't question you anymore stop looking at this despicable being with your pure eyes!! It's burning me!! Aaaaa!!! !)
“…., u…, is that so…. Then thank you very much” Lex said with an invisible dagger striking his heart from every angle
“You're welcome!!” he replied with a bright smile
(uwaaAAA!!!! Stop ittt!!!!!!)
