Chapter 408: Ashton's Army (2)

The first test Ashton had in mind was a simple one. The guards just had to stand still, that's all. He'll be firing three shots at them. If they manage not to move or flinch, then they'll pass the test and head to the next and final test. 

However, Ashton forgot to mention one small thing. He did not know how to use a gun. 

'It has to be a way to test out willpower.' A guard thought as he stood in front of Ashton, 'He won't hit me. So as long as I don't move, I'll qualify for the next round and maybe get a recommendation to become a mercenary!'

A recommendation. That was the second reason the guards were so hell-bent on joining Ashton's faction. They did not treat the mercenaries with respect early on because of the crap Eula's consorts used to fill their ears with.
