Advertisement
After a week has passed, that day has come for Sven to enters the tournament called Chosen recruit tournament. He will enter it under name of a noble family, The Versfalio family. The reason he chooses that family was that he remembered the day when he and Aya have idle chat, as he noticed that she ask him to be his guard or something but ignored by him due to not interested.
The chief village was given Sven a direction to go the Versfalio mansion and so, he went to go for it with his high spirit, carrying his sword and his short sword. After a long walk, he finally arrives, in front the gate of that mansions, and he notices that there are many people with many kinds of weapon, waiting in that wide yard.
Soon after he enters, all of those eyes were focus at Sven, observe him with such a menacing glance. Not long after, they ignore him and continue to talk each other. Sven just stood still, while his mind was astonished by that.
"what's that all about, giving a cold look to someone who just arrived" mutter him as he walks.
Not just him, every single person who just arrives will be given a menacing look by them, even causing one of the new arrivals were turned away,
Then, after a long wait. at the stage, there's a man, standing with his body fully covered by armour. Behind him, standing also a few man, wearing a light armour and wield sword, bows, and spear. They silents as they see them with curious and excited feelings.
"Behalf of my lord, Versfalio, I thank you, for all those who come here from a different place, also from this village, willing to sacrifice their life to bearing their back with the name of family Versfalio," said that man, replied by them with cheering.

"but before we go any further, let me remind you all again, about our demand. First, on 100% of your salary given by the government, we will take 70% of yours. Second, you will carry our name until you reach the rank that you can choose like general, holy knight or hero, after that you can terminate our contract and live on your own, so until then, all that your achievement in anything, will go to us. Third, if you achieve the rank that already can control a soldier, you and your soldier must serve us as our guards and army. fourth, within 5 years if you failed to reach the higher rank than a rank knight, you will have to pay for all those armour, weapon and fee that we provide to you for all that time.. and of course, twice the price"
"If you want, you can also continue to serve for our family after you succeed the second demand, and not to worry, you will be rewarded by us handsomely, In spite of that, we will provide you with the very best of weapon, armour, also the payment. So do not worry about that trivial matters"
"I bet anyone who signs to Versfalio family were already agreed to this demand. But if anyone just wanted to enter the recruit with our fee, then immediately terminate our contract.. with my pleasure, feel free to do so. I'm sure, you will not survive at the military with that just your cheap weapon and armour, so without our gold, it will be a hard time for you, so takes this to your thick skull" explained by him with his sword hanging at his shoulder
Everyone heard that with a silent response because deep inside their mind, that's are they would gonna do right after when they entered the recruit.Hearing that makes Sven gives a boring look as he yawns with wide mouth until he draws attention to a man who stands right not far from him.

"Alright then, let us continue. From the registered paper, we got 53 candidates. Oh my, that's so many of you. I have been told by my lord, that we just want only 30 people to enters the recruit tournament. that's a problem"
everyone in the yard murmuring with loud," ah, but don't worry about it cause I've already thought the solution to this problem" said that man with a big smile on his face
looking at that man's face while smiling, makes everyone at this yard wearing a worrying face, feeling chilled and creepy for some reason... except Sven.
