The Immortal Genius Spearman - Chapter 117

The Immortal Genius Spearman (117)
The final enlistment test for the Kaion Unit was conducted.

Unlike the existing enlistment tests, this was a new test that involved working as a special force within Kaion.

“As you said, we currently have a total of 270 people, with thirty positions left.”

Damien nodded at Diana’s report.

During the last battle with the Rose Knights, I felt that there were many shortcomings within the unit.

So Damian planned to make the remaining thirty men into a unit of archers who could handle bows.

“Are all the documents here from applicants for military service?”

“Yes, that’s right. There are about one hundred and fifty people in total, and about twenty of them are volunteers from within the unit.”

“It looks like there are quite a few guys interested.”

“It seems like the name ‘special forces’ within the unit has captured their hearts.”

Damien chuckled at Diana’s words.

Anything that has labels like special forces or independent units attached to it only makes things more difficult.

“It seems like they don’t know that it’s something they should avoid if possible.”

Damien muttered and looked at the papers.

One hundred and fifty people is a fairly large number of applicants.

I plan to choose thirty of these.

“Are you trying to pick it yourself this time?”

“I’ll be going with Instructor Leonhark. There’s someone I really want to find.”

“… … Is that the guy you’re looking for?”

Damien was going through the applicants’ files, looking for any names that might be there.

‘It could be possible… … .’

The Kaion unit was already a unit with great prestige within the Baroque Kingdom.

Not only does it provide support from the kingdom, but simply joining the unit will make you the envy of many.

So instead of creating an archer unit from the beginning, he made the unit famous first.

To increase the chances that a possible guy will come to you.

And as Damien was going through the documents, he saw a name.

“… … found it.”

Jurgen Tenmiller.

Although he was from a noble family in a remote area with little fame, he was an excellent archer.

Among the nobles, Jurgen has a talent for archery, while swordsmanship is a virtue.

‘I was quite famous as an archer in my past life.’

Although he was unable to rise to the rank of general due to the nature of his weapon, the bow, I had heard many stories of his exploits on the battlefield.

furthermore…….

‘By now, he must be only about thirty years old.’

Before the war broke out, he was just an ordinary soldier who was not treated well.

For him, who had entered the military to raise the status of his family, the Kaion Unit could be a very important opportunity.

Damien nodded and stood up after confirming Jurgen’s name.

“Then let’s take the test for all applicants at once.”

“What kind of test do you plan to take?”

“Well, what’s different about being a special force? Of course… … .”

First, you have to kill his spirit by training his physical strength.

At those words, Diana simply nodded her head, praying for their souls to rest in peace.

* * *

It was a conference room with an unusually cold atmosphere.

The seats were occupied by the Empire’s Auror Master, Fiarren Tail, and other commander-level figures.

A woman with long, flowing hair looked at Piaren and asked.

“What are you planning to do? Isn’t this war more about raising the status of the Baroque Kingdom than it has gained?”

“… … .”

I wondered why they suddenly called this meeting, and then I realized that they were planning to bring up this topic.

Piaren looked at those sitting in front of him with cold, settled eyes.

3rd Corps Commander Esteban Gachepsta.

And the man sitting next to her was Fabien Drickmann, known as the prime minister’s right-hand man.

“Do you know how much the Empire’s image has fallen because of this incident, Count Fiarren Tail?”

“Because of that, the planned work was delayed by more than a month, and there were significant disruptions to future plans.”

Esteban chimed in on Fabien’s words.

Piaren, who had been silently watching them, asked them.

“So you created this place to find fault with me?”

“No way. I’m just telling you the truth about the current situation.”

“I don’t think it’s necessary to continue talking about it since you already know. So what do you want from me? Should I lead the Knights and tear apart the borders of the Baroque Kingdom?”

“No, there is no need for that.”

Fabien said to Piaren.

Piaren’s eyes stared at him coldly.

“then?”

“Don’t do anything. Since you have been placed on probation for the time being, I think you should train with the Knights.”

“what?”

For a moment, Piaren’s eyes shook slightly.

Now, Piaren’s anger was focused solely on the Kion unit.

I was just thinking about moving the Knights and taking revenge on those guys.

“You’re saying it’s probation?”

A thick murderous aura emanated from Piaren’s body and attacked the two people.

At that, Esteban frowned slightly.

“Huh, huh!”

Fabien flinched, his thick belly rippling as if he was out of breath.

Esteban said to him.

“It would be best to stop there, Count Fiarren. If you cross the line one more time, it won’t end with a simple suspension.”

furthermore.

“This order comes directly from the Emperor. Do you dare to disobey His Majesty’s command?”

Esteban also looked at Fiaren with a stiff expression.

Amidst the ominous atmosphere, Piaren, who had been radiating murderous aura, let out a small sigh and calmed down.

“… … Phew.”

The Emperor’s command.

There was nothing Piaren could do in the face of these words.

As Piaren gained momentum, Fabien, who had finally begun to breathe, glared at Piaren with a murderous intent.

But the gaze of the guy who seemed to have difficulty even moving his own body was no threat to Piaren.

Piaren immediately got up from her seat.

“Count Piaren, the story is not over yet.”

“I have nothing to say. It’s a matter of contempt… … Do as you wish. We’ll see what happens in the future.”

Piaren muttered as if he was going to chew. But looking at Piaren like that.

“Don’t worry, the new Auror Master, Count Galberon Maxkop, will step forward.”

“… … .”

At those words, Piaren’s eyes shook slightly.

Galveron Maxkop.

The most recently named fourth Auror Master of the Empire.

He received the title of count and became famous as a rising star within the empire.

But Fiarren raised the corners of his mouth at Esteban’s words.

“Take that brat and give it a try. See what happens.”

And then with a cold smile.

“I’ll be waiting.”

As Piaren left the conference room with those words, Esteban’s expression hardened coldly.

“… … What an insolent man.”

Fabien nodded as if agreeing with that statement.

There could have been bloodshed, but just holding the guy down was enough.

Esteban immediately got up from his seat.

“Then… …Should we take the ball from now on from our 3rd Corps?”

As if she had planned something, she started walking out of the conference room with a sinister smile.

* * *

The test to reinforce the last members of the Kaion unit has begun.

“As expected, there are a lot of people.”

“It seems like some of the guys who failed last time are back again… … Was the physical test a little different this time?”

Looking at the training ground where the applicants had gathered, Terka asked Diana, who was next to him.

I thought that since he was the head of the couple, he would have heard a lot about this exam.

Diana nodded to him.

“It seems like things have changed a little. They say that they value quick mobility and skill with a bow above all else.”

Of course, the mental strength to endure intense physical training is essential.

It was a test conducted according to the conditions required for each unit set by Leonhark.

The most important thing in this test was how well you handled the bow.

“You have to be able to run fast, have good stamina, and be good at using a bow… … It won’t be easy, right?”

Since the bow is not a weapon that is commonly encountered, it was not easy to find highly skilled ones.

Therefore, among the applicants, there were quite a few soldiers from the existing archer units within the legion.

This is because, thanks to Kiaren’s consideration, everyone who wanted to transfer units within the 6th Corps was allowed to take the test.

“But if you come like that and take the test and fail, you’ll probably get a bad look from your original unit… … .”

“Well, that’s something each person has to figure out for themselves.”

“That’s true.”

Terka looked at the training ground with a smirk.

The archery training ground built for this test was also quite large in size.

“I’ll only say this once, so listen carefully! Anyone who shoots an arrow at the target on the opposite hill from here and hits the target has passed the first test!”

As Kyle’s voice boomed out, the expressions on everyone’s faces instantly hardened.

The opposite hill.

The distance is about 100m, so it can’t be said to be very far.

But if you’re just shooting arrows, that’s fine, but if you’re asking me to hit a target over there… … .

“Tch, I can’t even see the target properly?”

“Ha… … What kind of first test is this?”

I heard that the physical test for the Kaion Unit was hellish, so I came here with the intention of just passing it… … .

However, some people were already preparing for the exam while lightly pulling the protest.

Because the target was quite large, it was possible to hit it if you just paid attention.

“Then, starting from Group 1!”

Like it or not, the test has begun.

Everyone who took the test stood with a serious expression on their face and simultaneously started to protest.

Creak.

That’s right.

Squeak!

Soon they were pulling out their protests and waiting for the signal.

Flutter!

Kyle waved the flag he was holding wildly.

And at the same time.

Chojajak!

The arrows shot by a dozen or so 1 trillion won soldiers began to fly out toward the target.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several of the arrows they shot hit the target.

But even if they hit the target, those who hit too far outside the target did not pass.

Only two people passed in Group 1.

He barely made it to the end of the circle and passed with a chin-up.

“……crazy.”

“Wow, that Levin barely passed?”

The people in the next group were in an uproar, wondering if there was anyone they knew in Group 1.

That kind of atmosphere was short-lived.

“Group 2, forward!”

With Kyle’s shout, the two trillion won began to come forward. And among them… … .

Swish.

Nod.

Paul nodded and picked up his bow as he received Kyle’s gaze.

Although he was already a member of the Kaion unit, he also wanted to be properly tested and reassigned to the Archer unit.

Paul pulled back his bow and looked at the target in front of him.

Suaaaah.

One thing that people taking tests here are overlooking.

It was the wind blowing between the hills that was changing the direction of the arrow.

‘… …Is the wind blowing to the left?’

Paul began to aim at the target, anticipating the coming wind.

And when the aiming was finished.

Flutter!

Once again Kyle waved the flag.

Jajajajajajajak!

A dozen or so 2 trillion won soldiers shot arrows at the target.

Shhhhhhhhhhh!

And among those arrows, there was one that flew particularly fast through the wind.

I used the same standard bow as everyone else, but I pulled the string slightly harder to increase the elasticity.

‘Even the wind… is accurate.’

The moment when the wind blowing from the left slightly pushes the arrow.

thud!

“……omg!”

“Wow, wow!”

“Ugh!”

Others who were watching from behind couldn’t hide their surprised expressions and exclaimed.

Because Paul’s arrow hit the target dead center.

And in that appearance.

Shh.

Damien smiled broadly.

At that, Paul let out a small sigh of relief.

Because I was nervous because Damien was watching.

But the very next group.

Another dark horse has appeared, seemingly hitting the bull’s eye with an arrow.

It was Jurgen Tenmiller.
