Each of the troop units consists of 50 people with one captain. The total number of troops is 300 people.
On the other hand, the servants also lined up in a row. The total number of Cross Guard servants is 100 people. Of course Lie is included in this one.
Lie watched the ranks of the troops. He saw Nero, as a captain, command 50 people below him.
'So, he is one of the captains huh?' he thought as he frowned. Clearly enough that Lie doesn't like if Nero has a good position because of jealousy.
Daniele and Riku also command their respective units.
"Both deserved to be captains," he said silently while nodding.
After that Lie searched for the woman he hated, Rint. He had expected that the next unit would be led by the woman. But his guess is wrong. The last unit was commanded by Yuristo.
"Why is the unit headed by the Deputy Commander?" whispered Lie to Tony, who was lined up next to him.
"For now it has not been decided who will occupy the position of the next captain. Because the 50 troops are new staff from the servant who has just been appointed as official staff," Tony whispered, "but there are several candidates who will be elected.
"I was a.s.signed to command our drill today," someone does a speech while looking at an army of servants.
Lie's face turned gloomy when he saw that person's figure. His emotions overflowed when he learned that the person was a soldier who had insulted him, peeing on him when he lost the duel with Rint.
"Tony, what's the name of that person?"
"His name is Garet. Why?" Tony frowned at Lie's tense expression, "Ah! It must have been because of that ..."
"It's very unpleasant to be under his command."
"Then what can you do? Just accept it, this is how it works with the life. Moreover, we come from a lower society caste."
Lie only snorted in annoyance with his gloomy face. His eyes imply that sooner or later this child will make a scene.
"Lie ... Don't ..."
Lie looked at Tony while trying to smile.
"Calm down, I won't dare to do anything. Garbage like me still can't survive if I'm kicked out of this organization and has to survive alone out there," Lie said with a desperate voice.
"n.o.body said that ..."
"There is one who will said that, for example," Lie looked at Garet hatefully.
Tony sighed, giving up on Lie's att.i.tude.
"You really are ..."
"Hey there! Line up right. Don't chat alone," Garet pointed at them in the distance.
Lie and Garet eyes met each other. Then, he came into the line of servants where Lie was standing until they faced each other.
"What is this? I feel an unusual look from you."
Lie lowered his head to hide his expression, but Garet did not seem to let this go away.
He grabbed Lie's hair. Force him to raising his head until they looked each other again.
After trying to hold back his anger from the start, Lie seemed as on the threshold. He clenched his fists as hard as possible, it only took a few second for him to let go of his emotions, and then hit the servant commander in front of him.
"Enough," said a white-haired man while holding Garet's hand, "let him go."
Garet obeyed the man's orders. Lie turned his head towards that man, Yuristo.
"Ahh ... Deputy Comman--"
Before finis.h.i.+ng his words, a hard slap hit Lie's cheek.
"Ask for forgiveness now!" Yuristo snapped.
"But--"
Once again, Yuristo slapped his face harder.
Lie again lowered his face, this time with a weak att.i.tude, beaten in front of many people especially when he did not feel wrong had made him despair.
"S-sorry ..."
"Garet, he already apologized. Do you still want to extend this problem?" Yuristo asked while giving intimidation.
"No. Deputy Commander."
"If you really want to continue, do it after the morning training. You can officially duel with the place that Cross Guard provides," Yuristo continued while returning to the direction of his army.
Garet returned to the front of the line, while spitting and giving a sharp gaze to Lie.
"Tony. Can we challenge someone's duel officially here?"
"Lie... , don't say you want ..."
"I'm just curious," Lie answered while looking up at the sky.
Meanwhile, Tony felt an unpleasant feeling about Lie question.

Drill Training starts. Each member do exercises using blunt weapons. Starting from a wooden sword to long stick as replacement for a spear.
The captain who is in charge as a supervisor must pay attention to his subordinates one by one, correct the wrong techniques, or give punishment to those who is slacking around.
The partner of Lie exercises right now is Tony.
Tony stabs using a stick with all the weight is centered on its tip towards Lie. Then in an instant, that attack was countered, make Tony grip on the weapon was released.
For several times Tony try attacks, and the results are always the same.
"Something is wrong," Lie muttered.
"What's wrong?"
"You don't realize how many times your attack I just took off?"
"We try again!" Tony shouted as he prepared to attack.
"Wait," Lie stopped his drill.
He watched all fellow servants who were practicing using sticks.
The use of a stick is a preparation for servants to face the fight using a spear if needed.
Spear is a weapon that is quite easy to mastered. Moreover, its long range can increase the life chances of the users. That's why all the servants are required to practice using sticks - as a replacement of spears.
"I know what is wrong with your movements," Lie spoke seriously while pointing his index finger.
"First, the basic spear technique is divided into three movements. Cops up, brushes off with turns, and stabs," he continued.
"The problem is you use too much weight on the spearhead, So, it's easy for me to throw it away. For using a spear, focused the power at the center of your body and the hand that holds the base is used as a lever. Like this!" Lie continued his briefing while practicing his movements.
Then he took a position to attack Tony, "now, I will attack with power focused on the tip of the stick, while you try to apply the principles that I teach."
"W-wait --- huaaa!" Tony who was not ready to accept the attack still tried to do what he had just learned from Lie.
Instantly, the spear Lie was holding bounced because of Tony's slash with his stick spinning movement.
"Right?" Lie asked while grinning.
"Wow, thank you. It turns out that you have secretly a reliable ability, Lie," said Tony while repeating the technique he had just learned.
"Interesting. If you have really a reliable ability, why not try it in a duel?" Someone challenged Lie straightforwardly.
"C-captain Garet! Forgive us. I and Lie will continue our training."
"I still love my life, captain," Lie answered with a bothered tone.
"Hah. So, you're afraid? Take it easy, in this duel, we can use blunt weapons. For example, sticks instead of spears or wooden swords instead of sharp swords," Garet spoke in a disparaging tone while folding his arms, looking down on Lie.
"Captain. Forgive us. Please ignore us--"
"Well then, I'm on it," Lie cut Tony's words by putting on a pretentious, innocent face.
Tony panicked and grabbed Lie by the arm as hard as he could, "Lie! Quickly apologize! Mind your att.i.tude, don't get provoked!"
Grinning wickedly, Garet raised his hand then began to speak loudly, "after the drill practice is finished. I and Lie will go sparing, you can watch it as learning material."
The member who were practicing there began cheering and clapping.
Nero seemed not happy to see it. Whereas, several other captains put on flat expressions.
"It happened again," murmured Riku.
Meanwhile, other servants looked scared, they put on faces not believing what was happening.
Garet smiled and walked away to his original position in front of the line of servants.
Tony looked pale and grabbed Lie by his shoulders and whispered, "You don't know that he is the best one to use a spear? Besides, he is also a maniac in combat. No matter sparing or not, even though he uses Dummy weapons, he often makes his opponent f.u.c.ked off- also, that man already get a serious warning from the commander because of that! "
"Eh? Seriously ?!"
Lie pretend that he doesn know about it. But, he seriously wanna beat Garet.
