'No matter what you can see it's OP skill... as expected of Coop skill, but this Match Breath, isn't it like a couple special skill? I mean we are matching our breath and heart beat? Are you kidding me.'
''Ah Airi, yes let's continue. All troops attention!''
It's seems formation training is progressed in faster rate. While he standing, Arya calls his soldiers attention to gather.
''Alright, all of you have a good performance just now. But... yes but, you forgot something important. Do you know what?'' Arya said while observing all his soldiers with serious expression.
''''Sir no sir''''
''This one is really important, a thing that need to be done. Alright, what the thing is.... 'What is your Name'.''
''''Haaa..!!?''''
''Of course it's important. With that we'll develop sense of Comradement. Alright, begin from the the front and continue backward. Tell your name and your age. Ah, how about my introduction first, You can call me Captain Arya, am 16 year old. This partner of mine is Airi. Now you the girl in front, tell us your name?'' Arya make a proud face then pointed his hand at the first girl who are surprised.
''Ah,yes... my name is Martha. Um, I am 16 year old from Talons squad.'' a girl with brown pigtail and she has a cute face stuttering and blushed.
''Rana, 17 year old. Talons squad.'' Then the one with cool expression with tall body and black blue short hair that answers with short introduction.
''My name is Lisa...'' ''..I'm Lina...'' ''15 year old...'' ''..from Talons squad..''
Next is a twins, a girl with wavy blond hair that saying one after another, Lisa wearing White ribbon and Lina is red ribbon one.
''Maya, I am 16 year old, from Talons squad too.'' And the last girl, a cheerful girl. When Arya glancing beside him, he saw Airi noted their name. Talons squad is squad specialized with spear and javelins, typical long range damage dealer.

''Good, nice to see you Martha, Rana, Lisa, Lina, and Maya. Now let's begin for the boy from the left to right, right to left, and left to right.'' Arya said while move his pointed hand from right to left and so on.
''Yes, my name is Brandon, 16 year old. Wings squad.''
''I am Alex, 17 year old, Wings squad.''
''Jack, 16 year old, Talons squad.''
''Martin, 16 year old, Wings squad.''
''Arnold, 15 year old, Talons squad.''
And the introduction continued, Arya soldiers is just young people like him, in range 15-17 year old. They are all commoners so all of them looked tense but after the introduction they starting to able to talk and blend in each other, especially the girls side. Because they are enlisted as soldier that 99% is male they have a nervous expression, but now able to speaks without much worry. As their Captain said, they are Comrade, a friend that covered their back, to survive a battlefield they must know the meaning of Comrade. Seeing they like this, no matter what you can see they are like real people, they have name and their story, not some ordinary machine or data. It's make a smile appeared on Arya face.
''Ah, Airi. Did you note all they names? I remember the girl but the male is not quite...''
''Wait a minute.... okay it's done. Please call them and make a line again."
''Huhuhu.... you will see, now call them over.''
Airi seeing a bag that appear on Arya waist make her to wonder. After Airi call them and made them to stand in square formation, Arya walked to the front and started his plan.
''Alright, you already have coordination and perfect spirit. Now, I will decide a leader in each division.''
Before Arya continued one of the soldier rised their hand and ask ''Captain, are you not the leader of each division?''
''Good question Rana, the answer is yes and no. Yes, of course am the leader but I can't handle too many soldiers at once, so it's the important for each division, they will help me and Airi to sends the command in their entire division. Yes, we just have 2 squad for now but if we want to become stronger. I would also have a chance to make some new squad and it could become a division later if our number increase, so the leader in each squad is needed.''
Arya speak while observing his soldiers before focused toward Rana, however seeing she didn't ask again, Arya nodded his head.
Before he continued his speak, Arya open and close his mouth then turn his head to Airi. ''Where am I again...?''
''Ah, thanks Airi. Alright for the Wings squad the leader will be Alex, For Talons squad because there are 2 side, so it's Jack and Martha.''
''Ehh! Captain, are you really choosen me as the leader? Isn't Rana is the best in this regard.''
''Yes, you are and no, Rana isn't suited for leader role. And no complaint !''

''But but...Captain~~''
''No!'' When her request is rejected by Arya, she started to plead using her teary + puppy eyes combo, because it's quite dangerous for his heart he hide behind Airi and keep rejecting.
Airi smiled wryly and encourage Martha with a pat in her shoulder.
''Uuu... I understand.''
''Alright, next is I want all of you to have a spar with me. It is including you Airi.''
''Eehhh.....!!!?''
After that Arya started to dropping a bomb that said they must fight in spar against him. A mons..I mean a man that manage to kill the horde of goblin, even with the help of Airi did they even have a chance to win?
''It's fine. We are just going to sparring, it's didn't matter if you lose or win. But...''
When Arya waving his hand downward, a bag appeared in their waist. The other are confused for a moment and become noisy but after looking at the same bag in Arya waist, they started to calm. No, Arya started the second bomb once again that make them to go pale.
''This bag will help you in this training but it quite heavy. And remember, although I said a 'Sparring', I will not hold back. So try to survive~~''
Before Airi finish her sentence, Arya already rushing toward the unprepared soldier. They just stand there without moving, seeing his serious master, Airi using her skill and manage to block the first attack.
Airi shouted while trying to distract her master.
'''Yes...'''
''Not bad, that's first lesson. Don't let's your guard down. Second...''
When Airi manage to make the soldier build their formation, the shield team, Wings squad started to going to the front to protect the Talons squad using their shield to make defensive wall, Arya unleashed his Heavy Blow and throw half of them away and break the formation.
''If you face stronger opponent, don't face it head on.'' Arya swing his spear in rotation with a smile.
''Hmmph...? ......the third!''
When Airi say the order, they trying to throw their javelin at Arya but with his speed all of them only hitting the air and landed on the ground, even the Wings squad that manage to stand back and try to block the attack only to get blown away again, and in the middle of this Arya already locked at the one person that leaving the defensive formation, and didn't hesitate to move. Because the weight of the bag she didn't have time to react at Arya arrival, which is come towering over her.
''Eeh...?.... kyyaaa..!!''
'''Martha..!!'''
Martha has her right arm bleeding, he didn't even restraint himself to attack her and make the other soldier and Airi glare at him.
''What..? Didn't I already say that I will not hold back?''
Ignoring Airi, Arya move again.
''...Fourth!''
''If you hesitate againts hostility opponent, all you get is defeat.''
~Bang !
''..Fifth.!''
''If you didn't see your surrounding, that's your death.''
~Pierce!
''..Second!''
''Didn't i say that, if you face stronger opponent, don't face it head on?''
~Blown away
In hour, Arya beat them all to pulp. They have swollen and bleeding in all their body, laying down and only able to groan in pain. Even Airi just sitting in the ground with her head down, exhausted. She didn't have injuries because she manage to block Arya attack, but her stamina is drained. So this is total defeat.
''Weak... you are enlisted to Army because you understand it's nature right? With half hearted like that you will die in no time. Do you know what Soldier is? Are they the one that holding the weapon can be called one? Wrong! Even they holding a weapon but they aren't even know how to use it make them no different from normal person. Just because you holding a weapon, it didn't let you survive on the battlefield." Arya said while glaring at everyone who still on the ground.
'''.......''''
Suddenly a notification appear on Arya vision followed by a familiar voice.
Alright everyone it's almost time, finish your training for now.
''Alright, that's the last lesson. I hope all of you know about this...''
Hearing his teacher voice, Arya sighed as started to silently walking toward one of them, toward Martha. Seeing this the other trying to stop and help the shaking Martha, but their body didn't even able to move. Looking at Arya that approach her, Martha just trembled in fear and closing her eyes, what the next to happen is a shock for her.
With a gentle and care, Arya take her bleeding arm with little movement as possible. After searching in his bag, he took out anti septic and bandage. With carefull he started to nurse her, her hurt feeling somehow vanished and his serious expression make her to blush. Without she knowing, he already finished bandaged her injured arm and stand up. Leaving his dumdfounded Partner and his soldiers before saying his last sentence.
''Ah I forgot. I already prepared a same medicine and a few bandage in your bag, use it to treat your injury. That is my last lesson for now. See you again.''
While he finished saying that, a light envelop his body and he disappeared from their sight. But Arya didn't losing time to check his reward before leave the grassy land though.
