Chapter 2: Knight and Training.
After Xerome took Riktor inside where the tent's at. After walking sometime Riktor saw A big Tent, Larger than most of the tent's,
Xerome said " This is my tent , as i am the leader of this 1000 man battalion,come inside "
Riktor nodded his head and went inside with the bald guy.
Inside the Tent Bald guy went and sat down in a chair with desk.it was like a office desk and Bald guy motion Riktor to sit down.
After Riktor sat down Bald guy said " usually a foot soldier doesn't have this information but you're a trusted guy as you're my previous comrades son so I'll tell you about it.This is North Kingdom and other 6 kingdom's are similar in power except Pendragon Kingdom and Slehan Kingdom they are a bit more powerful than us and all 7 of us are allies "
"after a foot soldier is a 10 man captain,then 100 man sergeant who has 10 captain under him then me 1000 man battalion commander with 10 sergeant under me then 10000 man General who has 10 guy like me under him, Our kingdom have 3 such general and all 7 country have 3 general's each and they are balancing with 2 Empire's 22 General in each war. we allies nation have 21 general in total 210000 Army force's and 2 Empire similar to us have 220000 army and it's not a secret."
after balds guys huge speech Riktor processing the information he got,then asked" are you a knight?"
Bald guy's eye widened and laughed then said " Where did you hear about knight?"
Riktor replied" my village has 15 people and all are old guy's so they told me stories about knight "
Bald guy with a smile said " Knights are magical creature's although they are also human like us but they possessed power to destroy this 1000 man Battalion alone "
Riktor's eye widened and he asked " are knight that powerful?"
Bald guy nodded his head and said " very powerful , remember i told you how Slehan and Pendragon empire was more powerful because they possessed two knight and our kingdom only one knight "
Riktor's eye shone and asked " are knight so rare? "
Bald guy nodded again and said " yes they are very rare even 2 Empire have total 10 knight 5 each,we have 9 in total.Slehan and Pendragon Kingdom's have 4 in total.
Riktor asked " how to be a knight?"
Bald guy said " I don't know i am not a knight"
Riktor had a disappointment.
Seeing this Bald guy frowned and said " Brat you have to become warrior then gladiator first then you can think about becoming a knight "
Riktor's eye's shone .
Bald guy thought ' what a simple minded brat'
Bald guy explained " Warrior is a person who uses The Spirit energy, Everyone has this but some can unlock it others can't,once you unlock it you can see your inner self that has 7 barrier it's called 7 barriers of knight. If you can break 1 barrier you're a Low level warrior,then if you can break open 2 it means you're Middle level warrior if 3 barriers are broken you're High level warrior. usually High Level warriors are 100 man commander they can fight 10 person alone.Then hard part starts after 3 barriers remaining 4 barrier's are hard to open . If you can break 4th barrier then you're Low level gladiator,a low level gladiator alone can fight 50 people then Mid level Gladiator after 5th barrier open. middle level gladiator can face 100 man alone They are usually 1000 man Battalion commander like me "
Riktor asked " are you a Mid level Gladiator?"
Bald guy nodded his head and said " yes but my potential is finished "
Riktor asked" then after 6th barrier one becomes high level Gladiator?"
Bald guy said with yearning in his voice" yes 6th barrier broken person is a High Kevel Gladiator,High class Gladiator can alone kill 200 person without any scratch "
Riktor said " then 7th barrier broken is a knight?"
Bald guy nodded then shook his head and said " it's very tough to break that barrier,i heard that you need some kind of Power, I've seen 2 knights in action.our kingdom's knight when he used his spear,fire came out and killed thousands of men no matter gladiator or warrior they can't even come close to him and I've seen Pendragon Kingdom's 1 knight fight he used a hammer or something like that ,once his hammer fell on the ground whole ground got smashed and enemy fell thousands of enemies, Empire soldiers retreated then "
Riktor's eye shone brightly and said " I want to become Knight "
Bald guy laughed and said "you have to become a foot soldier first then not die second and many things to do later then if you have time then you can become a knight ahahaha"
Riktor was not disappointed this time but his eyes showed determination and asked " if a knight is so rare,can he find a noble lady to meet?"
Bald guy stopped laughing and said " so that's what knight business about? yeah a knight can meet noble lady's even Princes in our kingdom and even marry her "
Riktor said " Alright let's do it old man "
Bald guy got up and punched riktor's stomach and said " what old man? i am battalion commander Xerome"
Riktor who was clutching his stomach has a very painful expression.
Xerome then said loudly " call Ezekiel The newly promoted 100 man sergeant and ask him to take this boy as his assistant and train him "
Out side the tent someone said " Yes sir "
Riktor with a painful expression lost his consciousness.
When Riktor opened his eyes again he was sleeping in a bed his sword was in the corner of the tent.after looking around for sometime he saw someone opened the tent door and enter.He was a man in his twenties and Had a mustache.
That mustache guy saw him awake and said " so you've gotten up nice to meet you my name is Ezekiel"
Riktor got up and sat down in bed said " Riktor"
Ezekiel nodded his head and said " from now on you're going to be my assistant, it's already dark but let's go I'll teach you something then tomorrow we're leaving this side of the territory and will be on borders our recruitment is finished "
Riktor with a tension in voice asked " I can't go home?"
Ezekiel smiled and said " After enlisting in the army a person rarely went home"
Riktor has a saddened face because he didn't say good bye to his father properly.but he remembered his father was also in army so maybe he knew.
Ezekiel said " i heard you want to become a knight? then come with me "
Riktor hearing about knight became motivated and wanted to follow but then Ezekiel didn't even move and said " Take your sword with you"
Riktor said " I can't lift it for long"
Ezekiel said" take it "
Riktor Took his sword which was almost his size and followed Ezekiel out.
They came to a round field type place surrounded by tents
Ezekiel said " i am a High Level Warrior so I'll teach you how to sense your spirit and break open one later. as to why i am teaching you because your father was my captain when i was a foot soldier and he helped me a lot ."
Riktor said " okay teach me"
Ezekiel said " Unsheath you sword "
Riktor did and A black sword came out just like what Ezekiel had.
Ezekiel said " this is 100 man sergeant sword but your father purchased it before even getting promoted into , High level warrior uses this black Sword,Your father's promotion was confirmed but before we could come back we were ambushed and he retired after one of his leg got sliced"
Riktor then said " did empire did this?"
Ezekiel shook his head and said " no Beast ,This continent is divided into two parts but there's a jungle which is not even one tenth fo our kingdom but it's huge ,there lives unmatched beast's sometimes they came to attack us that's why half knights are stationed there to protect us ,all right Enough talk Use your sword to slash Infront "
Riktor did and almost fell because sword was too heavy.
Ezekiel said " No slash it from the direction of sky to earth in one line *
Riktor rolled his eye said " this sword is too heavy"
Ezekiel said " No Try sometimes if you can't then we'll go back and pick your self a Training sword but as you're owner of this sword you have to bear with it in tomorrow's march it's a long distance so i just wanted you to get used to it "
Riktor cursed Ezekiel in his mind but said " Alright I'll try slashing it up down,will that help?"
Ezekiel said " it should help you" then he said continue then left.
Riktor standing there alone thought ' you didn't say how long should i continue "
Then Riktor Slashed From upward to downward again this time again the almost fell with sword in hand .
Riktor then again slashed but this time he didn't fell.
Riktor again slashed from upward to downward again but this time he felt sword was a little light.
Riktor didn't even notice or can't notice because he was in a trance.
He slashed countless times as he felt sword was light as a feather.
He thought many day's has passed.
Suddenly his trance state broke with sword on his hand he felt sword was not even heavy anymore.
Then before he could move. a burst of energy came out of him and sound of glass being broken sounded 2 times.
