บท 30: Chapter 30 First Day (Pt.3)
Upon arriving in the room for his Physical Conditioning class, Carman was ordered to stand in line with the other students by a middle aged man who was standing in the middle of the room.
The man with salt and pepper hair was a drill sergeant who would be training them. From the media he had watched in his previous life, Carman expected expletives and insults to come out of the man's mouth as soon as he started addressing the class.
However, he was wrong, evidently this instructor had reservations regarding swearing at children, and only talked sternly and hollered when he felt he needed to make a point.
The instructor introduced himself as Sergent Superstes, and stated that while he knew that the training that he would have these children go through would be brutal at times he claimed it allowed him to sleep at night knowing that his cadets would be able to make it out of most situations due to having been trained to overcome pain and exhaustion. He declared that he did not care if the cadets were male or female, they would all adhere to the training regimen.
After his lecture he ordered the students to enter the changing rooms and put on their exercise uniforms. Carman followed his instructions and followed the line of other students I into a large locker room where he was handed a new uniform, made of a heavy fabric and waited in line with the others to get changed. It seemed that there were not separate rooms for children with male or female anatomy, but just a bunch of stalls and supervisors ensuring there was no funny business going on. Once his turn came, Carman entered a stall and took off his current clothes and changed into this new set. While it was significantly heavier than his normal uniform, the fabric was surprisingly breathable and did not make him feel uncomfortably warm or anything. Making his way out he received a number and a lock with a key he would be expected to keep on his person. Finding the locker corresponding to the number he had received, Carman placed his belongings inside and locked the door before hanging his key on a cord around his neck.
As he followed the class to the field in the back of the academy he felt a look holding malice behind directed at him from behind, turning around, Carman saw Camille Engrenage looking at him, while she wasn't outright glaring, the look on her face was reminiscent of the face a parent or caretaker would make after being handed a freshly painted or glued art piece made by a child, putting on a fake smile while hiding their disgust as they contemplate how fast they can put the art away without appearing to be rude so they could wash their hands.
Carman shrugged at her and turned his attention back to Sergeant Superstes as he directed the children to start running down the track, citing many incidents where people assigned to logistics divisions had to run to survive monster and other enemy attacks.
Due to his daily workout quest, Carman was doing better than most of his classmates. Many of them had lived in a cushy environment funded by their family's wealth, with little need to run around, after all why get something from across the hall Whalen you could order a servent to do so?
Carman was still winded and using the sleeve of his uniform to wipe some sweat from his brow, surprisingly, amongst all the young masters and misses, Ms. Engrenage was the least fazed. It seems that she had already started to undego endurance training before then and the smug look she made at Carman made her feelings of superiority quite clear.
Sergeant Superstes then lead the students back to the changing room stating that physical conditioning would only be these "light jogs" for the first grading period and that they were going to be running wither it was sunny, rainy, thunderous, or snowing. It would be better to learn how to escape in those conditions now in a safe space than to risk their safety by learning it on the fly.
Many of the students complained about having to walk back down the halls to he cafeteria after their exercise but since another class was coming in Sergeant Superstes rushed them out.
The rest of the day was fairly uneventful to Carman, he didn't share many of his other classes with Camille so there weren't many opportunities for her one sided rivalry to flair up, but by the time he came home, Carman was worn out.
Collapsing onto the couch Carman practically melted there as his muscles finally relaxed a bit after his day at school.
"Carman, are you doing alright?" Asked Ryuzu, as she walked into the room and saw Carman trying to become one with the couch.
"Yeah it's just been a long day.." said Carman, his voice slightly muffled by the cushions. "For some reason this day feels like it stretched on for a month"
-Somewhere a young man with dark hair chuckles self deprecatingly as he sits behind a computer, writing.-
Looking through his inventory, Carman noticed that he had quite a few pull tickets for the Gatcha part of his system in his storage, they were occasionally given in various quest rewards, and he always got one for completing his workout on the last day of the week.
That could be fun, let's see, I have two 10-pulls on the regular banner that dropped Ryuzu, and one 10-pull on a banner for skills, though it seems to mostly only give random exp to use for skills with very low chances of an actual skill being drawn.
Deciding which to roll first with a coin flip, Carman decided to do the regular Banner first, then the skill one
[Draw {Omniversal Calling} x 20?
[Yes/No]. ]
Selecting [Yes], Carman watched as an animation played on a screen only he could see.
