"Ready… begin!" Alfonso shouted while he looked at the kids who had their pencils on their hands.

Today was the big exam and Alfonso wanted to supervise it personally, he had his hands behind his back while he inspected the classroom… well, calling this room 'classroom' wasn't exactly right, however, for the time being, it was were the students had their lessons.

"I had to build a school and a hospital, those buildings are my top priorities, I need to find Hephaestus and have him to help with this, the System's mission have a time limit of one month, currently I only have six more months, technically speaking, it would take at least two years or more to build new structures, however, I won't rush them, the priority right now it's to improve the current houses, I think I can make it… I wanted to do rebuilt the houses and use the mediaeval Europe designs, however, I don't have neither the materials nor the topographical conditions to do it, so I will go with the Vikings, we have the materials and the geography to do it, it wont be that much of a change in reality, just a few changes here and here, maybe reinforcing the houses, however, the problem is, like in my world, wood don't last long, eventually, the wood will die and the houses will be destroyed, this is no good, I want to build a solid foundation, I know that in the south they have adobe so their houses and more refined but I can give me the luxury to go to the south to bring the materials, it will take to much time and too much money, I don't have neither" Alfonso had a headache thinking about the infrastructure problem in Wasteland Valley, sure enough, the Vikings had this type of houses that Alfonso could copy because of all the similitudes that Wasteland Valley has with Norway but it will be searching results in the short term, in a few years, the houses will disappear.

"But nothing to I guess, I have a rough idea of how to do things, I will write them to Ribeiro in a letter, if I cant find Hephaestus in one month and bring him back, then I will have to start the project, even if I have to improvise in some things" Though Alfonso.

Alfonso hated to do improvise things, he preferred to have a plan and do things following that plan, but, if you improves, you let things go fifty-fifty, you can get lucky and go things go your way, or you can screw things up, and this bet doesn't concern him alone, he had a lot of lives that will be affected by his decisions ,however, there was nothing he could do about it, this impotency made Alfonso mad and realize his own flaws as a leader.

"I must bring Hephaestus on time!" Though Alfonso.

.............................................

The exam was over and Alfonso when to another room, in this room, twenty soldiers were waiting for him.

"Hello everyone, today I will begin the first lesson, you lot should be thinking, why do you need to study, after all you are soldiers" Asked Alfonso.

The twenty soldiers looked at Alfonso, they didn't say anything, but their confusing was clear.

"Let me explain, all of you come from the Spartans, so you know their formations as well as how to execute it, to be frank, the Spartans only have one formation that can divide itself in two, attack and defense, nothing more, of course, the execution if so complicated that others formations looks like jokes, however, the fact that is a 'simple' formation is there, however, for you, I have other plans, the formations that you will learn are more complicated so you need to first know the theory and then put in practice, of course, I will do everything in my power to help in this five days, but the rest depends on your dedication and effort, understood?" Said Alfonso.

""YES, YOUR HIGHNESS"" Replied the twenty men.

"Good, then let's start with some basic information, you will do a separate training from the Spartans first of all, you will have to work in your footwork and tempo, so you can use these formations, you will keep using javelins as your main weapon…"

Like these, Alfonso began the education program for the twenty men, he gave them the main exercising program plus the turtle formation of the roman empire, after three hours, Alfonso let them go back to put what they learn in practice, of course, he didn't go with them, he gave them his complete trust, this surprised and touched everyone of the twenty men, after all, giving trust was easier say than done, trust was something that your earned, not everyone could you give their trust just like that, not to mention, Alfonso was the lord of this place, so he needed to be careful with how things worked here, when Cease asked Alfonso why he didn't go with them, Alfonso answer

"I trust that you will do things right, I won't be here for some time and you aren't children, you must make your own decisions, sure you can trick me and say that you worked hard, and I would believe you, because I deposited my trust on you, however, slacking leads to inefficiency and that would be reflected in your performance in the battlefield, at the end, I won't die, you guys will, In life you must do things right, always, do what you must do, and don't do what you mustn't do" Said Alfonso with a serious expression.

The soldiers only nodded profoundly and make their way back to the training zone.

.............................................

"Everything is going according to schedule, that is good, I will take the chance of this small free time to do some training on my own" Though Alfonso.

However, before he could enter his room, a commotion caught his attention, a lot of voices came from the hall. Alfonso when to the hall and saw Camel as well his daughter Zeti with his baby on her hands, alongside them was Demeter and a pair of man and woman, this man was tall and robust, he had a harsh expression and looked at Zeti with hate, the woman at his side was older than him, she had some mud on her clothes so it was clear that both of them were farmers.

"Your highness!" Shouted Camel.

"What is going on?" Asked Alfonso.

"You see, this-"

"Your highness, thank god, you are here, you must bring justice to us, this pair of father and daughter are too much! They actually dared to take more meat for them behind your back! Your highness, you must punish them for us and for all Wasteland Valley"

Before Camel could talk, the man shouted and kneel before Alfonso.
