At the end of a pleasant day's vacation, the men of the First Regiment returned from the city center one after another, and when it was dark, the officers began to roll call, and those who did not return were to be confined.

A commercial vehicle drove at full speed to the gate of the First Legion's station, and a tail stopped on the side of the road, and Noctis and the others rushed into the barracks in a hurry before the military discipline officer called the name, and then high-fived each other and laughed.

After a day off, Noctis and his three companions let go of their prejudices against Edward, and Luna Freya became more cheerful, laughing like silver bells from time to time.

"You guys seem to be having a good time?" Edward, dressed in casual clothes, flapped his wings from the sky, and Pine, who was carrying the Seagulls, flew down and landed in front of them, while the Seagulls' airship roared past in the sky, heading towards the city's airport.

"Sir!" Noctis and the others immediately restrained their smiles when they saw Edward, and gave a military salute neatly.

Edward glanced at everyone, nodded secretly with satisfaction, and said in return, "How do you feel in these five days?"

"It's hard, but it's fulfilling, sir!" Luna Freya said, fearing that Noctis would complain, "and most importantly, we've become familiar with the use of the Light during these five days. ”

"Very good, it looks like you're all familiar with this phase of training. Edward smiled maliciously, "So, starting tomorrow, you officers can break away from ordinary soldiers and go to the second stage of training." Knicks, keep an eye on them and don't let them be lazy. ”

"Yes, sir. The corners of Nix's mouth curled, and he couldn't help laughing, watching Edward leave.

"Knicks, what's the second phase of training?" asked Planto as he told Edward to walk away.

"Now in the barracks, you must call me Chief Nix. During this day, Nix, who had always been like a kind bodyguard, said sternly, "The second stage of training is actual combat, I will take you to fight against the monsters that can be seen everywhere outside the city of Insomonia, and each person must hunt more than twenty monsters every day, and the materials on their bodies will be included in the logistics of the First Legion." ”

"Going to fight so soon?" LunaFreya's eyes widened. It wasn't too difficult for the others to hunt twenty monsters a day, and they were all warriors who could go out alone before joining the First Legion. But she was just an ordinary person five days ago, and she lacked confidence in her own strength.

"Yes, you're no exception, Luna Freya. Nicks called her by her first name and said, "Crowe will supervise you through the day's workouts alone, and the others will supervise Litport and me." ”

"After entering the second phase of training, we will not return to Insomonia, we will set off to the northwest, and the final destination is the war zone of the Demon Hunter Knights against the Witch's Hand. "For safety, the Seagulls will be with us, but they won't fight!"

"I'm Paine, and your safety will be up to us Seagulls from now on. Pine introduced with a smile.

"But I ......" Luna Freya tried to plead, but seeing Knicks' stern gaze, she retracted her words and looked at him slightly aggrieved.

"Don't worry, Luna, I'll teach you some Light spells. At this time, Libots and Crowe walked over, and the latter said, "I consulted with the holy mages and priests of the Demon Hunter Knights after the war, and learned some of their spells. ”

"Wow, the rookies are back, please take care of me from tomorrow. Liportes whistled and mocked.

"Watch your tone, fatty!" said Gladiolas, glaring at Liberus, "It's Prince Noctis in front of you......"

"In the army, there are no princes, stupid big guys. Libots was not afraid, and directly poked his finger into Gladioras's chest and said, "And I, your instructor, you insult the chief to your face, do you want to be confined?"

Gladiolas looked at Lipotes, his teeth itching with hatred, but he could only stare.

The Knicks didn't stop this, and glanced at the crowd: "Hear clearly, go back to rest and pack your bags." I would like to remind you, try not to bring too many things, we don't have a vehicle to carry us, we just run over!"

When everyone heard this, most of them widened their eyes. As far as they knew, Garbadia, the base camp of the Witch's Hand, was a long way from here, and if they drove at full speed, it would take several days, and they actually used to run? And each of them had to destroy twenty demonic beasts every day, and the five of them combined were a hundred!

If it's placed in Insomonia, it's okay, but the monsters in the nearby area are not strong. But in the territory of Garbadia, which is the area most affected by the Tears of the Moon, it is full of magical beasts, and there are a large number of giant magical beasts everywhere!

Killing a hundred giant demonic beasts a day, and getting the materials off their bodies? It makes them shudder to think about!

"That's a ...... It's a bit excessive, isn't it?" Rao, a calm person like Ignis, was also a little dumbfounded, "Chief Knicks, are you sure this is the second phase of training?"

"It's an order, and no one can refuse it, unless he doesn't want to stay in the First Legion any longer. "You don't have to worry about your own safety, even if you die in battle, there is a small team of priests stationed on the Seagulls' airship to resurrect you." ”

Suddenly, Planto's eyes widened even more, and he said angrily, "Edward, is this trying to get us to death?"

"That's it!" laughed Libots.

"Alright, now you can go and rest, instead of talking nonsense here, you should prepare early. "Or, you can just quit the First Legion." I, Libots, and Crow, as officers of the First Legion, will also run with you to Albadia. ”

After Nix finished speaking, he left the place with Lipottes and Crowe.

"Come on, boys. Pine looked at the dejected five with amusement and smiled, "It's not as hard as you think. ”

When the five of them raised their heads and looked at her with hopeful eyes, Pine curled the corners of his mouth and said, "At least when your strength is exhausted, you can rest in the airship of our Seagull Regiment, we have specially modified the interior and set up a room for each of you, believe me, it is very comfortable." ”

With that, Pine held back a smile and walked slowly, leaving the stunned prince and princess and their three companions......
