Chapter 46: graduation preparation begins
The next day rk woke up to meet Leo already awake as heid on the bed silently watching a morning show on the television. rk slept in Leos room so he conveniently prepared breakfast for the both of them after he woke up.
Ding!! Ding!! As they both rxed after enjoying their food, they both received a message alert through their imnt. Good morning cadets, this is your captain speaking, all cadets are to prepare for the graduation ceremony which will be held 2 weeks from now. All cadets are to get their formal military uniform from the armory before the ceremonymences. On checking their imnt Captain Spokys loud but rough voice was heard on the audio message.
Tsk tsk, Leo yesterday we were crying on how well pass the first training session but now we already finished it and we are now waiting for the graduation ceremony, rk said in a nostalgic tone. Oh, I almost forgot I got some goodies for you, Iming, rk said as he quickly ran to his room.
He came back shortly after with a well packaged bag. rk what did you buy for me, Leo asked as he opened the bag. He was surprised when he saw the bags contents, rk you bought clothes and all these for me? I guess it didnt cost you much because of the increase in our funds, but still thank you rk I really appreciate.
rk just smiled; youre wee anything for my buddy.
Leo rolled his eyes at thisment, hmm you are now acting like a generous sage again, hemented sarcastically.
They both had their bath after some time ofzing around, they donned the identical pair of shorts and the fitting polo shirt that rk bought. They both smiled as they came out of the room, they looked just like a pair of twins. They felt like strolling around after wearing the new clothes so they simply did a tour round the military base.
2 weeks quickly passed as the Captain finally ordered for an assembly of all the cadets. That morning the cadets did their first parade in a while as they stood in attention awaiting the arrival of the captain. Captain Spoky finally arrived with his entourage of soldiers, he smiled as he climbed the podium to address them.
Good morning Captain, they greeted.
Good morning soldiers to be, he greeted back with a wider smile.
I feel like just smiling forever, he finally continued. Im proud of you all, cadets you broke another record under my watch. Of the initial 220 cadets who participated in thisst training session, 5 died in the training while 3 others failed to get the cut off mark of 50 points. I am d to announce that 212 cadets from this batch graduated to be soldiers and a very exceptional soldier emerged from your midst or better still 2 soldiers came from your midst who broke the individual records for most points obtained.
All the cadets stared at the only 3 high-grade soldiers from this batch as they were sure that the 2 exceptional soldiers were from the 3 of them. They stared more acutely at Anderson as all the cadets believed he was among the exceptional cadets; the captain finally broke their staring contest. I would be honored to announce the name of the 2 soldiers but Im restricted as their identity will be revealed on your graduation ceremony.
2 days from now which is on Monday is your graduation day at the Southern Sparta military headquarters. Cut your hair and be as neat as possible because it will be an experience that youll forever cherish and remember. The 5 weapons you took for your training will be the weapon youll use after graduation so take them as your personal stuff now.
After all the speech the captain finally dismissed the cadets as he also left. rk and Leo went directly to the armory to get their new uniforms, they met sergeant Modric there who smiled generously at them as they exchanged greetings.
Sergeant Modric showed them to where the uniforms were kept as they saw them hanged in a row. The unique color blue, ck, and white of the Spartan military uniform stood out as they quickly started looking for their size. After finding their size they found a suit case where they kept the uniforms after folding them.
They also picked the standard ck military boots which were kept to the side. They took one each for the both of them as they quickly left after that, as they left Leo continually talked about the awesomeness of the military boots.
The military boots were really useful as it had a wide variety of transformations and added gadgets, most importantly it was made using exotics. The boots can adapt to practically any situation as they can be maic if the situation requires it, they can produce an anti-gravity field which makes the user lighter to make them move faster and perform unreal maneuvers that are impossible in normal gravity. These are just a small portion of their capabilities as higher-grade boots can even enable the user fly and do other inconceivable things.
They reached Leos room after about 5 minutes of walking; they both entered the room as they stored the suit cases in a safe ce before starting their exercise sessions.
Sweat beaded down rks face as he wiped it off with his right hand, after a long session of stretching and contracting their muscles they finally rested as both of themid down on the floor.
I think you really broke a country wide record rk, getting 360 points out of 360 is still pretty inconceivable to me. Leo suddenly said is they rested. There is probably going to be a huge reward prepared for you, Leo rambled on in excitement.
I also really hope for a great reward, rkmented with slight anticipation.
They spent the rest of the whole day doing meaningless things andzing around as the date of their graduation ceremony slowly drew nearer.
We are finally being released from the constant training and drills bondage, rk thought while smiling. I cant wait to reach Monday, itll probably be the biggest day of my life, he muttered with a smile.
