Chapter 5: Start of his Training

The sun is now past noon, now is the start of his first training to become an assassin.

The men, now finished eating up their food and are excited about their first training and they can't wait anymore longer.

"This day is truly a lucky one, meeting a beautiful girl and she's a Guardian at the same time. Damn, could this be the perfect day?" he says to himself, his face then frowned when he remembers what happened last night.

After all of them finished eating and also resting for a while, waiting for the Captain to order them.

"Attention! This afternoon will be the start of your training, me and my men will be the one's that will train you. Understood!?" the Captain said.

"Yes Captain!" the rookie's answered.

"Now, before we start our training, I will explain some of my rules to you that you must obey. First, you will obey the orders that me and my men will give, but only while training; Second, you will not take a rest until said so; and Lastly, you will not back-out from the training. Understood!?" said the Captain.

"Yes Captain!" the rookie's answered.

"Now listen up rookie's, I'll be training you on how to properly use a weapon before we start training you as an assassin." said the Captain.

"Our training will specialize on how to properly use daggers, bows and short swords, which is the most common weapon we assassins use, and also I don't expect you to learn it at the first day, but this training is our foundation, so you must do your best, because as I said, our organization won't accept any useless people. Understood!?" said the Captain.

"Yes Captain!" the rookie's answered.

"Now, for the first weapon that I will train you is the dagger, why!? it's because daggers are very handy and also it is very easy to learn." said the Captain.

"If we still have time this afternoon, I'll also teach you some special tricks, such as throwing daggers." said the Captain.

"And one last thing, In training, I will be very strict, but don't get carried away and also don't take my words personally when I say something that offended you. Understand!?" said the Captain with a grin in his face.

"Yes Captain!" the rookie's answered.

"Good, let's start the training then." said the Captain.

The Captain and his men now started training the rookie's, they first explain some basics and mechanics before going into the actual training, just to ensure they learned something first.

After explaining the basics at how to use a dagger, they then now move on to actual training.

At first the rookie's including Zeb are just swaying the dagger mindlessly at the dummy target, just what the Captain expected at first.

After some hours of training, the rookie's are soaking wet and very exhausted, because of their vigorous training and swaying daggers here and there, the rookie's now have learned some basic dagger skills, they are trained where to stab and how to aim the dagger properly so it will fatally wound the enemy, they are also trained on how to throw a dagger, but there is only little progress, since throwing a dagger properly is very advance for them, and are also running out of time for the day.

However it is enough for the rookie's to learn how to use a dagger and develop some skills along the way but, throwing a dagger properly with precision is just too much for them to learn in one day, but Zeb learned it very quickly, like it was very natural to him.

The Captain then noticed that among all of the rookie's, Zeb is the fastest learner. He learns very quick, that he already know how to throw a dagger with deadly precision, hitting the target dead center every time.

"Hmm... this boy really learns fast, probably because of his profession being a hunter in his village, but i doubt it, because his other two hunter companions didn't learn quickly the same as him, not even close to him." he says to his mind, amused that he luckily recruited a student that learns very quick, he then smiled.

Many hours have now passed away since they started training and the sun is already setting down into the horizon and not long after, the sky will be covered in darkness; Night time.

"Boys, let's finish the training for today, because I know that all of you are exhausted, doing vigorous training under a burning sun is no easy task and I'm glad that all of you learned how to use a dagger properly and developed some skills." said the Captain.

The men then stopped their training, and then wipes their sweat and change their clothes, they then proceed to dinner.

While eating, the men are having some fun, they sing, they joke, they laugh and ect, but Zeb is just there eating silently and laughing occasionally.

Zeb still can't believe how lucky this day was for him.

"Talking to a beautiful Guardian and having some romantic feelings to her, training to become an assassin, and learning how to use and throw a dagger." Zeb summarizes his thoughts in his mind.

"Man, this day was so perfect." he says to himself.

And thinking about Ren, he can't help but to lose his mind dreaming about her; Her beautiful alluring eyes, her angelic voice, and her kind and cute personality.

"I hope that I can see her again." he says in his mind, and suddenly an idea comes to his mind because of his eagerness.

"Hmm... she might be in the lake, well I hope she is." he says in his mind. He then quickly finished up his food and then heading outside the camp to go to the lake.

He was about to leave the camp, when suddenly the Captain called him.

"Hey elven boy!" the Captain yelled, calling Zeb's attention.

"Come over here, I have to talk to you." said the Captain.

Zeb now disappointed because his plan was interrupted, he then turns around to see the Captain and then started walking towards him.

"What is it Captain?" Zeb said.

"I just want to talk to you about something, let's first get inside my tent." said the Captain.

"Follow me." said the Captain, then the two of them walked inside the tent.

The tent is large enough to fit around eight horses side by side with space in between them. The two of them sit into a small table facing each other.

"So boy, what is your name?" said the Captain.

"Aye Captain, my name's Zebram but you can also call me Zeb for short." Zeb replied.

"Okay then Zeb, now talking about on why I called you." said the Captain taking a look at him.

"I noticed that you have some talent" said the Captain.

"Uhmm... talent?" Zeb said confusingly.

"Aye! you learn very quick." said the Captain with a smile.

"Me?... quick?... , Captain?." Zeb said still confused.

"Yes indeed, when you were training earlier, you are the only men that is able to caught my attention, you now even know how to throw a dagger properly and accurately in only just half a day of training, and you even bested my men which they are trained for over a year." said the Captain.

"Now that my boy is a talent." said the Captain happily with a big smile on his face.

"Uhhhh...." Zeb didn't know what to say, but his jaw dropped when the Captain complimented him so hard.

A moment of silence passed away.

"Hmm... okay... about the training, how would you feel if I train you personally myself? I am after all, one of the best in our organization, the Black. so what do you say? you accept my offer?" the Captain said, in hopes that Zeb will accept his offer, because it is very rare to find such student.

Zeb is surprised by the Captain's offer. "I... I don't know what to say, yes! yes, I accept your offer, Captain." he smiled cheerfully, having this opportunity is the best.

"Good, starting tomorrow I will be the one that will train you." said the Captain.

"Thank you Captain." Zeb said, showing a cheerful smile

"Now go and get some rest, tomorrow will be a big day." said the Captain with happy expression.

"Thank you again, Captain, I will go now." Zeb replied with a big smile in his face and with his excited expression.

The Captain then nods at him.

Zeb is about to go out again to take some walk in the nearby lake, but he just scratched the idea and just decided to go tomorrow, he instead walks back straight to his tent.

"Could this day get any better? How lucky am I?" he says to his mind while walking back to his tent.

He then gets some rest after he arrived at his tent. Imagining the good things that come to him. He then sleeps, while dreaming about what happened earlier in the forest, when he and Ren finally talked to each other.

Zeb is having some wet dreams about her, like having some intimate talks and also doing some naughty actions.

# # # # # # # ~

The same routine every night, where the men takes turn in guarding the camp every two hours.

Zeb now finally asleep, waiting for his turn to guard the camp, and also waiting for the sun to rise again for a new day to begin.
