《Building an army in another world》Chapter 18 – Uniform
Advertisement
Half an hour later we have moved the wounded into a hospital.
We are now moving the lorries to a better location out of the town centre. As we move through the town we are still getting people looking at us like they don’t want us here.
We stop in front of the inn we are going to be staying in. the corporal and I get off the lorry and enter the inn. Inside there are round tables with four chairs around each and at the back against the wall is the bar counter. It is also where I assume you can get rooms. Behind the counter is a man who looks to be in his thirties but as an elf, he could be a lot older.
“Hello Vulmar told us that there should be rooms available for us here.”(E)
The in keeper stops what he is doing and looks up at me.
“So its you then. There are rooms available two single rooms and four three three-bed bedrooms they’re upstairs.”(Innkeeper)
The innkeeper hands me the keys and then gets back to what he was doing.
Leaving the counter I walk upstairs to find the rooms with the corporal following behind. Each door and key has a number on it. I open the door to the first room. Inside is a single bed, a desk and chair, a wardrobe and a window. The other single room is the same and the three bedrooms are the same but with two more beds.
The single rooms must be for me and the corporal. I hand the corporal the key to his room then I enter my room and lock the door.
I go to sit on the bed and open the book to officers equipment.

I currently have one hundred and twenty three procurement points but I want to save as many as possible to buy new units so that I can build a base. I will buy them later when I have an area prepared for the base. What I mostly need at the moment is the uniform as I need both new clothes and something to show that I am the leader. It also doesn’t help that I am the only one who isn’t wearing a uniform.
You have purchased one officer's uniform. 3 procurement points have been deducted. Please wait 10 minutes for it to arrive. I continue to look at my options while waiting for my uniform to arrive.
Knock knock knock
“Ma’am your uniform has arrived.”(V)
Opening the door there is the corporal with my uniform.
“thank you, corporal”(E)
I take the uniform and the corporal leaves.
After putting the uniform on I look at myself in the mirror that is in the wardrobe.
The uniform has a ww1 British style to it. It is similar to the uniform the rest of the soldiers wear except it has three chevrons on the left sleeve similar to how the corporal has two chevrons. On the right shoulder is the same coat or arms the others have.
Unlike what I thought the uniform is easy to put on and is not that uncomfortable. The hardest part to put on and get used to is the putties as I have never worn anything like it before. There is a harness that goes over the uniform that has pouches to put ammo in and can be used to attach a bayonet and revolver holder onto. There is also a bag on the back of the harness and two bags that go over the shoulders.

After looking at myself in the mirror I sit down at the desk to start planning what to do with the base I am going to build.

Tethered Souls
All humans are connected to the ether, the realm of magic, by invisible, intangible tethers. Tethers are a reflection of humanity, and etheral magic resists what it is to be human. The more 'human' you are and display, the more your tether constricts, restricting the flow of ether. Utilizing ether draws out the human psych, making it extremely difficult to use ether dynamically and for long periods of time. Burning ether allows a person strength unlike any other, sharpens the mind more than any enhancement drug, and allows the person to directly influence the physical world around them.Hugh Perigrine is unique. Orphaned at the age of 1, Hugh is a ward of the Imperial Empire and an acolyte to the Imperial Library. For reasons unbeknownst to him, he does not experience the world in the same way as his peers. He doesn't care for the war with the rebel armies. He doesn't feel the need to vocalize complaints. He doesn't hunt for gossip and there is no object that he cares enough about to desire. He does not fantasize. He is simply unlike everyone else. But Hugh can see things that others cannot, and he understands impossible forces at work around him. Hugh's entire being is latent with etheral power, and he is at the forefront of what is thought of to be possible and impossible.There is however, something that Hugh covets - the meaning behind who he is, why he exists, and where he comes from.
