Kapitel 300: Life of a soldier (1)

Artio's journey into the royal army was an unexpected chapter in his life, one that began as a humble peasant in a small village. The allure of serving his kingdom led him to enlist, a decision that altered the course of his destiny.

Having successfully passed the rigorous recruitment test, Artio found himself donning the uniform of the Sicilian crown. However, his life as a soldier was not confined to the barracks alone. During breaks from his military duties, Artio would return to his village and tend to the fields. His days were a delicate balance between the disciplined life of a soldier and the familiar, earthy toil of a farmer.

Under the watchful eye of his captain, Antonio, Artio underwent a comprehensive training regimen. The seasoned squad leader drilled the recruits on essential skills, emphasizing the importance of maintaining pristine gear. Antonio's stern yet effective teaching style became a guiding force for Artio and his fellow band of soldiers.
