"Well, like I said those three are the departments in the kingdom on the surface."
"On the surface? Uhh... Other than those, there are still others?"
Eiji asked Muri, He knew about the other department that wasn't really talked about in the lessons, but was in a higher regard than the three.
But from the looks of it, there is still another department that Muro hasn't talked about yet.
"Hmm.. The other one is as you already knew, is the Shimin Training Department!
This Department specifically looks for the most talented children in the kingdom and are trained by the shimins themselves!
Currently there are just a bit over a two hundred trainees in this department, in these recent years, no one has yet to become a full fledge shimin!
And as you know, this department, they themselves can only recruit and invite someone and cannot be applied!
And well, if you do get the letter for recruitment, it would be one of the greatest things you can achieve, as even the trainees in this department are very, very strong!"
Eiji nodded his head as he listened.
This shimin Training Department is one of the most illustrious department in the kingdom, other than the official Shimin themselves.
Kids around the kingdom that wanted to become swordsmen dream of being able to be trained and groomed in this department!
Even just being a trainee can already elevate your social status as well as your wealth!
Although one can only dream about it, last year, there were no one that was invited to that department, as for this year's batch, in Muri's thoughts, other than Eiji, there would surely be two of them that would be invited!
"As for the other one...."
Muri hesitated slightly, in truth, he doesn't want to tell Eiji about this department, and this was in fact the department he was in when he was still active in the war, but considering the way Eiji fights and his abilities, it won't be a surprise if he does get invited in this department.
"Sigh! For this department, well this is the one I was in back then!"
Eiji's eyes sparkled a bit when he heard his words, and for Muri, knowing Eiji, even if Eiji does get invited into the Shimin Training Department, he would surely choose the department that he was in back then!
"Well... This department is like the Shimin Training Department, you can only be invited and not applied, also it is very secretive as well as highly confidential.... And is also cannot appear on the surface....
It is the Assassinations Department!"
"A- assassinations department?!"
Eiji was a shocked when he heard that.
This meant that there is a department in the kingdom that deals with only killing people?
You should know that the scholar department was all about their research, while the warrior department is about training soldiers and survival, then the IAID is for information gathering!
Then this meant that in this department, the only thing they'll do is to kill people!
Muri saw Eiji's reaction and then said.
"Well, it is all about killing people, but for me, that department is both the safest and the most dangerous department!"
"Hm??"
Muri knew that Eiji didn't get what he was saying so he continued.
"Well, it is the most dangerous because you would be given tasks that involves killing either very strong people or very important people with lots of guards with them, which in turn make sit very dangerous.
But it is also the safest as, most of the time, you are only given either 1 or 2 mission in a year!
Well, while there are mundane missions, but for real assassinations, it needs lots of information and intel, that's why this department is heavily reliant on the IAI Department!"
Eiji nodded his head then asked.
"Then Master, what department should I get in on?"
"Well, Eiji to be honest, you would surely be invited to both the Shimin Training Department and the Assassinations Department!"
"Hmm!"
Eiji nodded his head.
"For me it would be better to get in the Shimin Training Department, but considering all of your abilities and style of fighting you are more suited in the Assassinations Department, you also have the technique that I taught you personally, so as much as I don't want you to, you are very much suited in the Assassinations Department."
Eiji mused when he heard his master's words.
He wasn't really that interested in the other departments, although the Shimin Training Department looks interesting, but knowing that his master Muri was from the Assassinations Department, Eiji in fact, had already made up his mind!
*Sigh!
Takazawa Muri already knew what was going on in Eiji's mind when he saw his face, he sighed in his mind and continued to talk.
"Well Eiji, regardless of what you choose, for now you can go rest first and get ready for Monday as then you would officially be a swordsman!
Congratulations Eiji! I'm proud of you!"
Muri smiled at Eiji as he congratulated him.
"!!!! Thank you Master!!!!!"
Eiji happily answered his Master.
After a few moments of chat, Eiji happily went back to his dorm to rest.
For him, this was one of the best day of his life!
*End Of Chapter.
