A month passed by. A month of boring office job, where the only highlights of Lane's days were regular guiding - and making out - sessions with Damien.
He wouldn't have expected he'd be stuck in the General Stuff for so long… The life of a C-rank Guide at the Association was truly miserable. At least by Lane's standards.
Eventually though, the time for Basic Combat Training to start finally arrived.
Combat Training for Guides at the Association consisted of three levels: basic, intermediate, and advanced. It was mostly attended by the members of the Association, as well as some freelancers, hoping to improve their employment prospects with the Guilds. Intermediate and advanced courses were held twice a year, if there were enough Guides registered for them, that is. The basic training was the only one always happening once every three months without a fault, as it was compulsory training for all the members of the General Staff.
