《Eternal Soul》Chapter-16

The officer looked at Grekorio, and said, "Young man, you have the will but not the means.", and the officer get back to his early position.
"But sir, at least give me a way to prove myself!", Grekorio argued.
The officer turn to look at grekorio again, saying slowly,"Okay, then i will give you two tests, one simple and the other hard.", said that the officer start to walk in a direction with Grekorio following him.
After walking around a few tents for a few minutes, they arrive where is the training ground with training dummy spread around the place, they walk in middle of the training ground and the officer stop besides a dummy, and speak to Grekorio.
"The simple one, is for you to destroy this dummy." , after saying that he take a few steps back and blankly stare at Grekorio.
Grekorio take the gladius from his inventory and unsheath it, holding the sheath in his left hand while wielding the sword with his right one, Grekorio take 3 steps forwards and casually swing his sword, following by a sharp sound from the wind the dummy soon start to fall apart from the middle.
After the dummy fall on the ground, the officer came forward and while looking at the dummy, say, "It's seems that won't be there a need for hard test, since it's only for you to gather treant core."
Hearing that Grekorio was dazed, by discovering that the treants have a core while he didn't took one on the way, he could probably be richer now.
"What is this treant core?", Grekorio couldn't help himself and asked.
"The treant core is just like the name says, the core of a treant, and it's help necromancy magic or something, and it's price is 1 gold." ,The officer said while motioning for Grekorio to follow him.

Grekorio started to follow him while nodding calmly while sheathing the gladius and putting it back inside the inventory, but inside he was screaming about the money that he could get.
Entering a tent, the officer stop on the side of a table with a map spread across it, and say to Grekorio,"Stay behind me, now you are my subordinate, my name is Alexandre, you can call me Captain Alexandre."
Grekorio start to analyzes Alexandre clothes, green clothes, with a insignia that has 3 stars and crossed swords on the shoulders, without a wrinkle on his clothes.
Soon enter more 3 persons, with insignias that has the crossed swords but have one more star and they are more flashy, and the one in the middle has a arrongant air while looking at the few persons in the room, even more when his gaze passed by Grekorio, but Grekorio didn't even noticed that, he was excited thinking,'Good!! A quest scenario.. but, Alexandre is the one with the lowest rank here, and the other are probably colonel, but the arrogant looking one is almost surely the gereral that will 9 times out of 10 give dumb orders.'
While Grekorio was lost in his monologue the NPCs are already discussing about a mission while pointing on the map, except Alexandre that is on the side quiet only looking at them.
"Okay, then we will have Alexandre company charge at the wood elves in middle of the mountain." , Suddenly the General-looking dark elf said out loud, suprising Grekorio who was looking at his character status and noticed something weird.
Grekorio was suprised that he was right, this general is stupid, even he know that is a stupid thing, and Grekorio don't know anything about tactics, this will probably kill everyone under Alexandre, at a better scenario a few will survive.

The dark elves know the mountains like their hands, so why they would throw themselves at wood elves without this advantage, while the middle of the mountain that the general is speaking is a good spot, it's not for charge, but for assasinations, since the wood elves don't know anything about the mountain, and they could use the undead for charge in place of a company of dark elves.
On Alexandre's face you could only see wrath, but a second later it transformed in apathy, after hearing what the General said, he saluted he start to walk out of the tent, and Grekorio did the same actions.
Outside Grekorio couldn't help but ask, "Captain, why that asshole gave such a dumb order?", Grekorio didn't resist the urge to be sincere.
"Because he has a inferiority complex, and think that all his subordinates are scheming to take his position, so he make this kind of dumb decision to free himself of worry."
Grekorio was suprised by how this quest was progressing, and was waiting for the quest window to appear,'This is becoming interesting, but what was that on my status?', then he opened his character window.

「Race Trait: To hide themselves from the outside world, the Balancers developed a innate magic, that hide their true appearance while showing the appearance from the race that he is sorrounded with, you can control it.」
'This is useful, it mean that i can pretty much disguise myself as any race, and that is, i can disguise myself as a wood elf, enter their city find out about their side of the history, while killing their officers too.', Grekorio was humming happily while following to where Alexandre's company is.

I am not professionally trained as a writer but I have tried my best to teach myself and make the chapters as clean as possible. I believe I have reached a point where my limited skills cannot improve the work or make any more corrections. It is very difficult to show this work, but if I do not, I fear I will never improve and learn. So here it is. To anyone who lends the time to read all of this and any of my chapters. Thank you.
