"Everyone ha gone through a lot in recent day. Unlike the other front, no battle are going on here. You will pend mot of your day getting bored more than you think. There i not much luury and entertainment, nor there i any good wine and drink, till, the condition are coniderable for you to be able to pend your day comfortably loitering around."

"Still, don't forget that thi i the border and you are all the oldier of Kinley. So, don't loe your guard or do anything that bring calamity here. Since you are poted a a oldier, at leat try to act like one."

Thee were the word Earl Ruth had conitently repeated throughout the training coure.

Ale could feel a hint of deperation and reignation from hi word. Intead of advice, it looked more like a pleading from hi end to knock ome ene into them.

All of thee people were aigned to the fourth defence line. Since it wa quite far from the border out of a column of the 7th defence line. It wa quite afe and rik-prone.

Mot of the noble were aigned here wherea the cadet and recruit were aigned to the 6th or 2nd defence line which i quite cloe to the border and are in a tactical poition to provide upport to other.

Ale had heard other talking about thi place a if it wa a holiday pot. There wa an heir of a noble aigned here and he ued hi father' wealth to modify the place.

He didn't upgrade the tronghold, rather he turned it into the party hold.

"I will mi you a bit."

Ale backed down a bit eeing a notalgic look in Johnon' eye.

"You are the firt peron who ha undergone thing eriouly. Your pirit had woken many from their lumber and in the hort time, you have haped many oldier here. It i rare to ee a gentleman like you."

"Here, take thi."

Seeing Ale' confued look, he added"Thi i a book containing ome information about the Wetern Front, it terrain, ecret hideout and alo the name of the people who work incerely intead of lazing around."

"Every time I find a worthy man in thi dead land, I note them down. Now, I am paing it out. I feel you are going to need it oon."

Ale didn't know whether thi man ened omething or not but Ale thanked him from the bottom of hi heart.

Ale had aked hi men for information about thi man.

Johnon had a tragic hitory.

He wa deployed at the Eatern Front and wa a Sergeant. He fought brilliantly againt Harold' aault and didn't give them an inch.

Back at hi home, hi on fell eriouly ill and they ent letter for hi help but Johnon who had dedicated hi life to the border wan't able to repond to it and hi on died of illne.

After finihing the war and achieving a major achievement, he returned home only to find hi on in the coffin.

Hi wife accued him and aked him to chooe between their family coniting of her and hi mall daughter or the country, which made him fall in a pinch.

Seeing hi heitation, hi wife left with hi daughter and no matter how Johnon amended, he didn't return.

She feared that if he tayed with him, they would die helplely with no one to take care of them.

With a broken heart, Johnon poured all hi frutration on hi enemie and achieved miraculou feat one after another.

A he reached fifty he decided to retire and went back to finally ettle in with hi family but only to find that hi daughter had been married and their familie had been living happily while hi wife had gone on ome journey.

‘A man like him belong on the battlefield not anywhere.'He alway believed in thi and decided to pend hi life erving a an intructor teaching young oldier.

Every time he ee ome good lad, he i reminded of hi dead on who alo wanted to follow in hi foottep and become a oldier and erve the country but ala he paed away.

"Ale, I can ee your dedication to the live of oldier but becaue of thi don't neglect your family."That wa the lat advice Johnon gave Ale before he departed.

And it wa alo what he advied many a he didn't want the young men to uffer the ame faith a him.

Ale accepted Johnon' incerity and pure kindne like thi hould be repected.

Not many good people like him remained. Ale knew that he had never hown anyone pure kindne and much of hi kindne wa due to reponibility or a way to eek profit in the future.

Ale liked Johnon' character and incerely prayed to the Godde Of Lut to give Johnon a chance to redeem himelf.

He wa at Trancendent rank and hi wife eemed to be at Mater rank o both till have a long life ahead.

Ale and the oldier tarted the march toward the fourth defence line.

The troop had been deployed and all of them had to walk toward the defence line.

Warhore and cavalry were valuable apect o no hore were pared for them.

And even if there wa a hore, a noble who tried to forcefully it on a hore, would jut be kicked down a evident during the training.

"Damn! Why do I have to walk on my own? I am a noble. I hould have my carriage."

The noble grumbled on their way. Their oft feet which had never uffered till now tarted to hurt.

One of them wa unable to carry on and ordered hi oldier to carry him on hi houlder.

Meller wa alo in their group and he wa fairly urpried to ee Meller becoming quite docile.

He wa a bit chubby but hi figure had changed a bit. He had taken part in Ale' eercie routine but he wa unable to complete the et till the end, till, he had at leat taken a tep, unlike other.

After a long walk, they finally arrived at their detination.

Ale for a moment wa paralyed eeing uch a colourful ight. The wall had been painted green, and the watch tower had been decorated into a light tower ued for partie.

The mall phere which can be ued a a torch light to give a ignal wa now ued a a dico light.

The pike on the wall had been removed.

"What the hell i thi?"

"I think thi i a place to party," Riya aid helplely.

"Thi i a digrace. We will take down thee thing a oon a we reach here." Ale ordered hi men with a frutrated epreion.

After reaching the place, everyone tried to accommodate.

They reted comfortably and under Ale' trict order, the place wa tarting to be fied.

It had hardly become alright after being worked upon for two day when the danger knocked on the door.

TANG!TANG!TANG!TANG!

"Emergency!"

The ound of the bell ringing loudly could be heard and everyone tarted to run around like a headle chicken here and there.

The noble wonder what happened when an officer appeared in a pale place.

"Jut now, Arkham. The Empire had attacked and taken down the Firt defence line.7th and 6th line i currently in a talemate and oon they might find their way here."

The moment everyone heard the new, they felt a if they had been puhed into a death trap.

"So, it' finally here,"Ale muttered with a helple look.
