The forest of metal aura

"My window! What?! Where is the bastard?!"

"Fuck! What have I done?!"

"No way! Nightmares... then window explosion? Are we haunted?!"

One day, the window suddenly exploded. The seniors exclaimed up in arms, their heads all red from fuming. However, when one of them reminded about the nightmares, the soldiers looked at the window and clapped their hands.

"""Mr. Ghost, We are sorry."""

In a tandem, they bowed and respectfully prayed to the ghost even though the one who had destroyed their window was Reigner. He deftly grasped the shattered pieces, then disappeared in the corridor.

The three months had built up his body exceedingly. He himself couldn't believe it when he saw his muscles in the mirror's reflection! That six-pack and biceps somehow made him feel better and momentarily, Reigner forgot about his situation.

He woke up quickly from his immersion and swore to keep training. The strong body to throw all the items is going to be the key in the homecoming. The small pieces in his hands reflected the eyes shining with resolution!

Once in his room, Reigner put the shattered pieces close to the window, then allowed the sun to caress its structure... The sunshine term is not that vague and if it doesn't work, then Reigner will try to create another recipe.

There is one thing as the item creator.

Once created, Reigner can see a lot of information that is useful, but also a game-like.

For example, durability.

But his eyes were focused on the sunshine's stat.

[1/100]

"Alright, it works."

What's next is to wait before the shattered pieces store up enough sunshine, then take 'photos' of the map. Selia surely won't refuse Reigner as he allows her to sit on his bed whenever she acts like the older sister.

He glanced for the last time, then clothed himself in the soldier's clothes.

These clothes are going to be soon all covered in the mud.

-

There is an easy classification for the soldier's ranks.

It begins with the lowest rookie, then ends with the Heavy Soldier. The heavy soldier is the one that can connect up to the metal horse, ride well on it, and more importantly, fight like the real soldier. The heavy soldiers are respected and treasured by the king and three noble families.

There are cases where people can not connect to their 'creation' which is the metal horse. They are bound to be mere 'soldiers' that can wield something else than lance and their status simply diminishes like a sunset.

If such things happen, then they are bound to be either 'Soldier I or Soldier V'.

"You piece of shits have already trained with the lance and shields. But if you end up not connecting to the metal horse, then all our efforts would end up in vain."

'Your efforts?'

Instructor Unni had gathered everyone in front of the forest. There were a few individuals that already began gulping down their saliva while sending indignant gazes straight at her... Being showered by such expressions, Instructor Unni felt like moaning yet she whipped the ground.

"This is the forest of metal aura."

They were forced to train so hard and now, the first real test had arrived before them. The enraged rookies slowly calmed their shaking selves, then focused on Instructor Unni's words. She is going to explain the meaning of the test in detail.

The only thing that bothered the crowd was the whip that kept nonstop slapping the ground as if she hated her world!

"The forest of the metal aura is going to raise your affinity with the metal just by spending your time here. But if it was so easy, then I would bring my whole training facility here, right, fuckers?"

There was no answer, so the whip finally got a new target. Instructor Unni smashed her weapon on the poor rookie's chest, tearing up his shirt. Then, hearing the painful exclamation, she nodded with contentment and continued.

"The forest is soaked in the metal aura, but I am so benevolent I have also spread out the weapons, supplies and prepared up to four caverns."

'Oh, how benevolent.'

Reigner cursed out inwardly, then his mind processed the information. It was clear as day that they are going to go here without anything, so he was prepared up for the battle. The first important thing is to get the weapon, then find the fools with supplies.

He narrowed his eyes, glanced at his roommates, then continued to listen.

"All of these are filled with metal aura and so you can bask and feel the power of our kingdom. But, we humans and other races have also a close connection with the metal ever since birth."

""""...""""

"What is it?"

The rookies blanked out, thinking that she is speaking some bullshit. Of course, they were eyed by her annoying and cold eyes, so it was something stopping them from voicing out their opinions...

Even if this might be rewarded, no one really wanted to speak with the bitch instructor.

"It's blood, you piece of shits."

Slap! Slap! Slap!

The continuous slaps caused every male to lose their shirts. She tore through them flawlessly, one slap for one shirt. Then, she ordered everyone to take off their pants meaning that this bitch is going to throw everyone naked into the forest.

"Blood... Taste the blood, you morons. How far you are going to do it is not something I should be bothered about, right? Killing is allowed, get it?"

""""...""""

"After you leave the forest, we will make the special test prepared by the noble household, Kyuno. The test is not always accurate, but if you pass positive, then you are bound to become the heavy soldier."

'Heavy Soldier, huh.'

Reigner narrowed his eyes. He had some pieces of glass within his shorts which was also somehow dangerous to his family jewels and weapon. However, Reigner was thinking about something else... The Origin and Noble Households.

Every noble household has its own 'metal creation' so he will go for his own.

He will cause the uproar and focus all the attention.

Such power might be suspicious, but if he keeps following this bitch steps, then the slaps will continue for more or less two years. He couldn't allow for such a thing to happen.

'Once I become the noble... You will be the first one to join my rank, you bitch.'

Reigner swore.

'And while I am single, you will perform some duties later on.'

[I can always run away if needed.]

"Medusa! Why are you smiling, huh?"

"Because you are so fucking sexy when you slap."

Slap! Slap! Slap!

"Finally revealing your true colors, huh!"

Slap! Slap! Slap!

"Holy shit! Is she putting more strength?!"

"The whip... shone with a green light for the last slap..."

"Dear God... I swear to not call her 'sexy' for my whole life!"

Reigner was already soaked in blood, even before entering the forest. He was forming some plans, his mind got filled with the plans quickly. But then, the bitch's voice had slipped through and so he mindlessly spoke up.

And it was something Reigner didn't regret.

In fact, he felt like thanks to it, his plans are bound to succeed.
