Chapter 16: Fight
Looking at all the soldiers saluting him, david feels an unfamiliar feeling, a feeling of actual power.
He lacks the self confidence that a lot of other people have, hiding his lack of confidence is what he did throughout his life.
"Welcome, I know most of you don't know me, my name is david and I hope you can accept me. "
David isn't good with speeches, so he speaks honestly and truthfully.
Everyone still keeps looking at him, some had decided to give him a chance, while a lot still wanted his position.
Looking at everyone, david salutes and then turns to go back to the former major.
"Nice speech, it's time for you to meet some important people, and you can just call me mr strong. "
Dragged by Mr Armstrong, david Is taken to
a meeting romm full of people.
"Major. "
Everyone stands up and greets him, after that he is taken to the seat at the front of the long table.
"Let the meeting begin. "
Even with his position gone, Mr armstrong stil had enough prestige to start a meeting.
"So who will go first. "
After this words are said, almost everyone put their hands up.
"Let's start with those at the front to those at the back. "
"Thank you. "
Starting with the person on the right, a mean looking man with a shaved beard, gray eyes and black hair.
"I want to ask what he did to be able to inherit your position, I have been in the military for more than fifteen years, yet you didn't choose me. "
The man was not stingy with his words, but the others all agreed with him.
"I won't even try to tell you the reason, I know none of you will accept it no matter what, so. "
"Defeat him and the winner will become the new major but if you can't, you will all accept him as major. "
This is the best solution to the problem, they fight him and then they reallise the difference between him and them.
"Okay. "
They don't know why he chose david but all of them were confident in themselves.
"I'm too lazy for all of you, you will fight him all at once in front of all the soldiers. "
Hearing this, the expression of all of them that are present change, no one would be smiling when insulted like this.
"Hmph... Let's start. "
After that, they all go to the training area, and then rally all the soldiers.
"We are going to have a little spar and you will all be witnesses. "
Informing the soldiers, the first person comes and faces david, it was the mean looking man with shaved beards.
"Kid, I don't know what you used to gain the majors approval but you are done for now. "
As the man was saying this, the mr armstrong face was turning ugly, the man had just made it seem he was bribed.
The man attacks, bringing his hand in front of him and assuming a boxing pose, the man walks fast to david.
Looking at him attack, david leaps into the air and punched his fist at the his face.
Boom!
The single punch from him had broken the man's nose, red blood splattered all over the ground and his clothes.
