In the meeting camp, Rein was just sitting in a chair with Emil on his right side, standing with crossed arm, While he just say to the both new appointed leader,
"Well first of all, let me congratulate both of your for excellent performance"
"Thank you for the opportunity captain!!!"
"Thank you, captain"
Nodding his head in agreement he just then added,
"Well now that both of you are the new squad leader, this is my first order"
"I need you guys to form your own teams to be under you, but soldier are free to join or not, having 8 people at maximum"
"Roger that captain!!!"
"I'll follow through captain,"
Seems satisfied, he just approved of their responds with a nod,
"Well that's all, I'll add up other instructions later, you need to be ready with your squad earlier in the morning"
"I don't want to exhaust your guys any longer as we will move again soon"
With that words, they just murmured 'yes' while giving a proper salutation before going out from the Meeting camp, now that the two figure already retreat, Emil just asked Rein
"So, what do you think of the mock battle young lord?"
Putting his hands on his chin he just responds to Emil question,
"Hmm, never thought that they could be an talented person on our camp until now"
"Especially the rookie and that Machete guy, owh not to mention the first battle participants, Tony and Luther"
"Hehe, they are lots of talented people everywhere young lord, we just needed to dig em up and they will grow"
"Yeah, seems like I am a bit skeptical towards our own force"
Emil was glad that his captain are slowly learning to be a great leader, but then he just asked him again but this time involve him in it,
"Young lord, if you gonna battle any of those soldiers how confident are you of winning?, "
"Hmm, I think I'd win all over them, it's not that I am too confident in myself but rather to you teaching skills I guess?"
"Whoa, now you are sweet talking to me to too?" Emil pretend to be shocked while cupping his mouth,
Rein just shrugged his heads off while responding,
"Well, I cannot lose to you in terms of battle or even in intimate relationship"
"Well technically I am still weaker than you though"
"Hmm, what's are you trying to say my lord, it's not like I am dating someone right?"
Then, Rein just grinned and say one word or rather one name to silent his vice,
"Emil, about vice Shilling..."
Emil : ...
With that Rein just burst in laughter while Emil blushed furiously like a teen just just fall in love in silence, after that they just concluded their daily meeting,
...
Early in the morning every soldiers are now gathered in front of the meeting camp, but this time they seems to be more organized and now are divided into two faction,
As Emil and Rein get out from the meeting camp, Rein seems to noticed the change and smile in approval while two man just give their salutation and shows their new squad members,
"Salutation to Captain Rein and Vice Emil!!!"
Miki shouted in enthusiasm while Machete just given salutation without any word, After that Rein just voiced out his thoughts,
"It seems that both of youanaged to do your first order successfully ",
"I am glad for this reformations and approved, while some that still hesitated and not planning on joining either camp will be directly under us" Rein say in loud tone
But seeing both of the new squad leader team, Emil and Rein noticed one things, quantity and quality, While Machete squad have a larger number, Miki squad contains all the other excellent soldiers from yesterday's match, it seems like the Tony guy and Luther decided to join Miki squad, But all is good as it's still retain the balance while are more organized than before,
"Then from now own, you guys are to accept order from your squad leader, but don't misunderstood the main order are still in my hands and Emil"
"Yes sir"
"Will acknowledge that captain"
As he was just want to give the next order to both of the squad leader, someone interjected him from behind of all the masses, he just seems to be out of breath and still sweating, it seems he just arrived while running from the forest directions,
"Captain, captain !!!, here!!!" The person saying while raising and waved his hands frantically,
"AHH, yes you any questions or" just as he was about to continue his words, this time Emil is the one Interrupted him, while whispering something to his ears,
'young lord, that is our scouter'
'ahh I see, i don't know we already sent a scout a head to the fronts'
'i am the one who ordered him to do it my lord, seems like you are too focused on the training, that you just say yes to all of my actions and move'
'hahaha, seems like it, '
Anyway after hearing his misinterpretation, he just asked the scout directly,
"Yes scout, any important information"
"Yes sir I would to report as soon as possible"
"I see, then all soldiers are dismissed, except for the squad leaders, and and also Sir Jello right, you also come"
Sir Jello is the Mage leader that are sent by Lady Grace to help him up, seeing Rein direct gaze he also just follow up inside the meeting room, with that the masses disperse while the line of commands make a follow up meetings,
Now there are six figures inside the meeting camp, Rein, Emil and Jello are sitting upfront while two squad leader are on both at the right and left side forming a line of five figures, and now direct their gaze on the sixth one, the scouter, without any delay Rein just asked him
"Okay you can proceed with the report"
"Yes sir, I have scouted the surrounding areas up to 4 miles coverage and no sightings for monster except at 2 miles near the riverbanks, they are horde of goblin sighted"
"I have investigated and from the two days that I have monitored them, it seems like they are 3 horde in total are in that area, which could amounted to twice the amounts of our soldiers"
After saying this all of the people are now shocked and are concern a bit, as goblin are considered a medium grade monsters, they are nimble and fast, but compared to human they lacked strength, but what concern them is their amount, although it seems like they could win this battle easily, considering their large number it could still brought some casualties,
"Hmm, that's concerning"
"So twice the number huh"
"I think you worry to much captain, it's just a bunch of small green things, compared to us with this equipments and the mages we could overwhelm them easily" Machete voiced his thoughts to the Captain and the vice, but Rein just calmly replied,
"What you say is indeed true, Machete but it's good to be more careful and have awareness"
"Moreover, I intend to win this battle with lower amounts of casualties, it's better if they are no casualties at all" he say to Machete,
"I see, I understand my lord" Machete say while nodding his heads,
"Well, I have think of a plan for this battle, I think we will proceed this way" Rein say while explaining his plans towards all of the person inside the camp including Jello,
With improvement here and there from everyone, they just concluded the meeting with their next plan to tackle those monster,
"Then we will proceed like this, we will move 1 day earlier it seems"
After he say that everyone just nodded in agreements as more or less this is the plan that they have thought together although the main ideas was from Rein, with that he then dismissed Jello, the two squad leader,
While sitting down, suddenly the scout just turns his back and say in embarrassment as he seems to forget to tell some other importants information,
"AHH, captain and vice Emil I seems to forget this matter to tell you earlier"
"Owh, what is it?"
"During my scouting time on that two days, it seems like I noticed something peculiar about that horde"
"It seems like they are have more consciousness and more organized than a normal horde, they seems to be more efficient in executing their prowess"
"Moreover, they are less infighting among the horde id we compared to normal horde"
"Hmm, organized and much discipline huh, I think they also have line of command, I think they are following the leader, what you say Emil?"
"If it was like that it seems a goblin shaman or hobgoblin are leading them, Although rare it's happen sometimes, it thinks we willanage with our current planning"
With that the scout just excused himself and go out from the meeting camp while the two figures continue,
"Young lord, once again you manage to make me proud today as your battle instructor, you are more confident and those planning are top notch"
"Hmmm, I thinks it's a well used plan tho, "
"Not at all my lord"
With that both of them just ended the meetings, while retiring to their own camp, Rein still sitting on the chair just muttered,
' 1 days earlier huh, hopefully everything will go according to the plan, but my gut feeling just seems off, like something unexpected will be happening' he voiced out his thoughts, this time noore sighed could be heard from him just a firm and confident breath,
