a carriage that carries Sven and cloth face arrive at the front gate of the camp," thank you for your hospitality, it was such a feast last night" said cloth face with humble
"your welcome, it was nothing" Aya smile
"It's been a while since I eat human food. the last thing I eat since I come here was that corn soup, made by Rena. Well, we demon can stay alive without food for 3 months, so that's was nothing"
"But I tell you, their food and ours were not that different. After all, before human exists, we demon that already lives in this world, gain everything that human doesn't. That's mean, those stories were true, that all this kind magic, knowledge, food, were all taught by us." Sven silent himself when he heard the conversation
"Okay Aya, we're leaving now, take care of your father. Don't forget to treat your father's ill with the medicine that I brought yesterday" said Sven. When Aya and cloth face busy with their chats after dinner last night, Sven secretly asks Godin to bring the medicine from Night Witch, and the cost is quite shocking as she asks for the sacred treasure, the Horc dagger. Luckily, he has, and the negotiation went smoothly as the medicine arrives at Sven's palm.
"Don't worry, I will. You know, I keep wondering last night, where do you get that medicine... if you say you have friends that making those medicine, I quite not understand as you told me that your village was destroyed and you just new in this region, so...?" Aya looking straight right at Sven's eyes, while Sven thinks carefully to answer that question.
"I carry it with me always... I forgot to told you that I'm also a herbalist... you don't have to worry about that small details, all that important is that your father looks healed from those medicines" Sven has to lie, to cover his identities

"You right, I'm sorry for doubting you. I'm so useless as your fiancee" Aya feeling down for some reason. She also worried about him, because she also heard many bad things about this camp. She afraid that she may not be able to see him again
"Hey, that's not Aya that I know. The Aya that I know is that she is always energetic, brave, justice, strong and charming. So... where is that Aya, I wonder?" Sven put his palm on Aya's cheeks
Aya smiling," right here! hehehe"
"Wow... I did it!!, I finally found you" Sven return it with smile
"be a good girl, okay, I will be back right after I got a day off, and after I finish this camp, I fulfil my duty to you, also... take care of Rena and her family for me" said Sven
"I will, goodbye Sven, take care of yourself there... don't eat any poisoned food, don't be late to sleep... don't...." Aya voice sounds vague as she already leaving that place with her carriage.
"You sure know how to handle her," said cloth face
"hahaha"
"how old is she by the way?"
"if I not mistaken, she's one year younger than me, sixteen I guess" Sven does not notice that he began to accustomed to his"lied" age
"Oh, okay then"
The two of them walks into the camp, to find the site for their assembling. Along with their walks, they already saw the recruits, waiting for their assembly, and so Sven and cloth sit somewhere and wait as well. One by one, the recruit comes in the camp with their panic face. Sven can recognize the recruits is that at their neck, their wearing the same necklace, the same colour as him. Dan told him that necklace colours are for shown their different rank.

After a long wait, the empty space at middle has full of people. Right after Sven was daydreaming, he heard a rough voice with a shout," all recruit!! assemble in front of me in ten seconds, NOW!!"
hearing that, all of them form the line with panic, but not for Sven as he's already used to it, the soldier line up stuff.
"My name is Klosen, I'm one of those lead men that will take charge of training you in physical improvement
"I welcome you, recruits, to the most targeted camp in this country, The Jega camp. I compliment you for your bravery to put your life in line for the country. But are you have what it takes to become the defender of the nation!??" ask that middle age man
"YES SIR!!" they shout loudly
"well, for a word, you may say so, but I'm not the type that trust the word you see... what I want is action!!! let your action speak beside your filthy mouth!!! YOU HEAR ME!!?"
"SIR, YES SIR!!"
"Good, so, to your knowledge, we already gather 2000 men in this, men and woman. I don't care if you from noble family or not, the action is always the top priority. Your rank will rise if you do something great, and stay for not accomplish anything, so keep that in mind. To keep your fighting spirit burning, let me tell you a history, that once, a young man breaks a record by graduating from the camp within 3 years and gain the place for the high general, and do you know what he does to achieve that?? he kills one of the high ranks of the demon!"
"HOOO!!" all of them were surprised by that
"And so do you, you're no different than him, you also can achieve what he has.I bet you choose this camp for known its reason, for your fast achievement. But as far as you know, even if he succeeds kill that demon, we still not win any war against the demon. Right after they almost annihilate us, we retreat, showing them our backs, and that's humiliating. But I always believe that story, even now I still hoping that one day, that holy knight in that story will appear in front of us, leading us to victory by killing the demon lord..."
"It will be me!!" shout one of them
"that will be me!" everyone shouting
"that glory will be me!!!" said cloth face
"good luck to you then" Sven smile to cloth face
That showing spirit by them makes that middle age man smile," heh, you bastards. Okay, now you must drop your luggage in dorm and meet me in this area in 60 seconds with your sword, start NOW!!" shout Mr Klosen
Everyone starts running with their luggage and comes back to that place
"well-well, I see some people already catching breathe by now. I say good luck, and now, we will be running on that mountain and comes back, and running again until for 10 laps, then we do the war defensive art after that" Mr Klosen pointed to them at that big mountain
"you got to be kidding me, " said cloth face with shocking
"like I said, good luck to you then," said Sven

8 186The London Phantom: A Superhero Webnovel
London is an old city. It has survived floods, fires, plagues and the man-made smog of industry. It has stood firm against the armies of Vikings, Saxons, Normans and the aerial might of the Luftwaffe. It has borne witness to dynsatic feuds, civil wars, military occupation and the sin of regicide. Through all these disasters the city has survived not through force of arms, though its walls were once the envy of the world, but through adapting to the times. Enemies become dependant on the city, and the wealth of the world that flows through it, and so become new allies. If the rulers change, then the city welcomes them with open arms, and open lines of credit. In this way the city seeks to preserve its ancient rights and position of power. Superheroes are a new phenomenon. The first superpowered man walked out of the Nevada desert in 1950, and the world was forever changed. Across the planet, men and women with exceptional abilities made themselves known. At first, they were little more than another source of fear in the era of Mutually Assured Destruction, but over time attitudes changed and the concept of the Superhero was created in the city of Los Angeles. From there the phenomenon spread across the globe; superheroes went from being feared arms of the state to a symbol of hope in these maddening times. Times have changed. Sixty years from the emergence of the first superhero, the City of London stands on a precipice. Two years have passed since the madman Fawkes nearly brought down the United Kingdom and the remnants of the Bow Street Runners, London's premier superhero team, are struggling to keep order in a city that seems on the brink of collapse. London stands on a knife's edge, with criminal organisations that once stuck to the shadows becoming more bold, and ancient powers from myth and legend making themselves known. Alexander Laszewski has recently 'awakened' and has become entirely unremakable, effectively making himself invisible to the world. He must use his newfound power to navigate a city on the edge of collapse. If only he could figure out how to turn it off.
