Capítulo 19: Chapter 19: The Rotenburg's Hell
Ferdinand pov
It's been 3 weeks since I was suddenly taken away by my Grandfather and Uncle, being placed in a Military Camp to be trained in the Imperial Russy and Cossack way.
The moment I arrived I started to suffer, I was told to do several exercises that quickly tired me, but even so I had to force myself to continue or the Cossacks would beat me.
After Physical Training, I was sent to Military Strategic Training to learn everything about how to be a good Military Leader in the future.
After that came Magic Training, where I have to fight like I was going to die at any moment, I'm not even kidding.
On the first day, I almost flew into the air and fell to the ground straight to my death as I couldn't control the Military Equipment properly on the first few tries.
I also had to face Russy White Mages who were sent to "train" me, for me it was more about using myself as a magic shooting target and punching bag.
Also, the food I ate was of the lowest military-grade, the same as that given to newly arrived recruits, soup was already a luxury for me that was only given when superiors felt sorry (which was very rare).
I try hard every day and every day that passes is even more difficult for me, but I can already see some benefits, even if they are very small, it still counts.
"HURRY UP YOU LITTLE SHIT, WANT TO CLEAN UP LATER LATER?! KEEP RUNNING" A Cossack yelled at me as he reloaded his rifle...I was running while the bastard was shooting close to my legs.
Thanks to the Department I learned to use the "Magic Shield" otherwise I would have lost my legs to the shots a long time ago.
3rd pov
As Ferdinand ran as if his life depended on it (which it did), his uncle was sitting in a chair as he watched Ferdinand run.
"Training is still soft...prepare some Cossacks for a 'surprise attack' on his Tent." Said Nikolay while being served a glass of wine by a maid.
"Understood, Your Highness" Said a Cossack as he bowed to Nikolay before running off to warn the others.
While Nikolay was drinking his wine, Alexander appears with his arms crossed while looking at where Ferdinand was running with all the speed he had.
"How has he been in training?" Alexander asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Fine for now, but I'll make it more difficult... how is the Dacian Royal Palace?" asked Nikolay as he sipped his wine.
"Your sister almost killed Johan using a spoon, it took your Mother and several of the Dacian Royal Guards to stop her." Alexander replied as he saw Ferdinand dodge several bullets from some Cossacks while using Magic Shield.
"Understandable." Nikolay said nodding as he finished his wine.
'How is that understandable, Nikolay?! She almost killed her Husband just because her son is being military trained!' Alexander thought with one of his eyes shaking with irritation.
"Anyway...how has the Dacian Soldiers' Training been going?" Nikolay asked as he set the wine aside and looked into his father's eyes.
"From the reports, it is having an improvement, the Officials stopped calling it 'garbage' and went to 'not very good', which is a significant advance." Alexander replied while focusing his attention on his son.
"Um, yes, while the Dacian Army has Imperial equipment and weaponry, which are the best, it still has untrained personnel, not to mention that just recently, Dacia is creating a Professional Army, even with our help it will take a long time... the best way is to have Life and Death Training on the Battlefield" Said Nikolay as he got up from his chair and focused on Ferdinand, who was now doing squats while a Cossack held a stick.
"Yes, there is no better Training for a Soldier than fighting for his own life, that's the only way to gain real experience." Alexander said with a deep and serious tone in his voice.
"Well...we just have to hope Dmitrievna doesn't try to kill her own Husband again." Said Nikolay as he went to his tent.
Alexander nodded and continued to watch Ferdinand suffer at the hands of the Cossacks
Meanwhile at the Royal Palace
"Please, my dear Wife, understand that-"
"UNDERSTANDING?! YOU SENT OUR SON TO MILITARY TRAINING, JOHAN, NO MATTER HOW MATURE AND INTELLIGENT HE IS, HE IS STILL A CHILD" Screamed Dmitrievna in rage as she held Johan by the neck.
"My dear, I think it's over, you're going to kill him, besides, you're not acting like a true Lady" Natalya said in a scolding tone as she looked seriously at Dmitrievna.
Seeing her Mother's serious gaze, Dmitrievna reluctantly let go of Johan's neck, who was left breathing heavily for air.
"Now you are going to have a serious talk, like civilized people and especially, as Husband and Wife about this matter" Natalya said seriously as she grabbed two chairs and placed them facing each other.
With that, they both faced each other as they sat in their respective chairs, both falling silent before Natalya forced them to speak.
Returning to Camp
While the adults were finally starting to have a civil conversation, Ferdinand was continuing his training, now facing off against the Russy White Mages.
'Shit shit shit shit' Thought Ferdinand while holding his Magic Rifle tightly while trying to dodge the Magic shots.
As he dodged the shots, he saw one of Russy's White Mages taking a break, which Ferdinand didn't think twice before aiming his rifle at the Mage and firing an explosive magic shot.
The shot reached the Mage and then exploded, after the smoke disappeared, it was shown that the Mage was fine and had a Magic Shield protecting him.
"TRAINING OVER" Shouted a White Mage before Russy up to Johan flying by.
"Very good, you finally landed your first shot, but you used more Magic Energy than Normal for that shot, you'll have to improve on that." Said the Mage before patting Ferdinand on the shoulder.
"Cheer up, you've secured your soup today! Hahaha" Said the Wizard before flying back to the Military Camp.
Ferdinand upon hearing this, sighed wearily before following the Mage back to the Camp.
