章 75: Their first hug

After unnecessarily brutalizing the less than qualified soldiers of the Blue star, Esong managed to catch sight of Adler returning alone from the fields of gold. His curiosity got the better of him and he wondered why he had left the sister who was so pitifully weak behind. 

Standing before Esong was a sixteen year old boy, so young and weak, trembling with a long metal energy powered rod that was probably too heavy in his arms. He was was supposed to spar next with this little boy!! The blue star lacked capable grown soldiers that he was expected to spar with this boy!!

One that had not even attended an academy of any kind. He was flabbergasted and lost all interest in sparring. 

"Go home." Esong told the boy, then he dashed away in the direction of the oat fields. 

The boy that was left behind collapsed on the ground, trembling as if he had a fever.
