"There is an address behind the papers I gave you, you can et there from tomorrow onwards and until we stay in the capital," Zaos said. "Let's know each other better while we strengthen ourselves and wait for our first assignnt."
The Bloody Knights nodded and then began to leave the arena. The selection has been tiring, so they want to spend the rest of the day resting because their duties will start from tomorrow onward. Before leaving, Nyana waved her hands toward Zaos, and so of Cohnal and lisse's friends also greeted them.
"The selection was a success, huh, Captain," Cohnal said. "I guess we are a proper unit now. We just need to train the group to work together, and then we will be able to complete so missions."
"We are supposed to leave for the West side of the country in six weeks, so we need to make so progress until then," Zaos said. "I will be counting on your help for that."
"Roger that, still, six weeks…" Cohnal said.
"We can only achieve so much with regular training," lisse said. "I would bet that the people that passed the tests have so training with drills, aside from the kids of the magic school, but only a real battle will make them improve their teamwork."
Zaos nodded since that made sense. While those people were mbers of his unit, they won't beco real allies until they endure so hard tis together. Unfortunately, it wasn't like Zaos could find sothing to substitute that in those six weeks.
"Well, see you guys tomorrow at our headquarters," Zaos said.
In the end, Zaos bought a warehouse and transford it to beco a more relaxing place for five hundred people in the last ten days. While he used his own money for that, he was sure that eventually, the investnt would pay itself.
The next day, Zaos headed to the headquarters early in the morning and found Cohnal and lisse there. After a couple of hours, the mbers of his unit started to show up and delivered the docunts with their registration. Much sooner than he had expected, everyone showed up, and then he noticed that the unit was split into two groups. 150 soldiers trained by the kingdom, 338 rcenaries, and the twelve kids who just graduated from the magic school.
To make everyone a little more motivated, Zaos paid everyone for the next month of work, and after that, he decided to talk with all groups and with as many mbers as possible. Although Zaos tried to be as friendly as possible, few of the mbers could relax around him, even though he was just asked their opinion on how he should lead the unit between missions. It wasn't like he had no idea how to do that. He was just trying to show that he was open to improvents.
Things stayed like that for a while, and since he concluded that the mbers wouldn't get comfortable around him for a while, he decided to do things in his way. In the morning, he made the mbers of the frontline train for two hours outside the capital. He also made the archers train in the nearest forest. For the sa amount of ti, Zaos made the kids from the magic school ditate. He told them that would be their howork. They had to do that every day while they stayed in the capital. Although they could train for longer periods of ti, it wasn't good to exaggerate while they were waiting for their next mission. After all, they will have to work much harder once they leave the capital. After two weeks, Zaos decided to talk with his officials about the group as a whole.
"So, any changes so far?" Zaos asked.
"Nope, everything is the sa as usual," Cohnal said. "Those who were trained by the kingdom can't relax around the rcenaries. The rcenaries are just waiting for the trained soldiers to pick up a fight with them. At the sa ti both groups, are ignoring the kids from the magic school."
"As I told you, we won't achieve much by ordinary training alone," lisse said.
Zaos crossed his arms and then faced the ceiling of his headquarters. It seed he would need to do sothing harsh to make everyone think of each other as an ally. They are now divided into groups, in the sa groups that they stayed in the last years. While the situation wasn't bad, it wasn't improving either.
After thinking for a while, Zaos found a way to make the mbers of his unit work with each other more. However, he would need to make so more investnts.
The next day, the mbers of the unit found out that they had been divided into several groups, and each group had received so jobs from people all around the capital. Zaos didn't have an extensive network of acquaintances, but the people he knew had many friends, so they gladly helped him find so tasks for his unit. While that wasn't proper work for a militaristic group, it was another chance for them to gain so extra coins. By working for people like rkin and Halamar for a day or two, the mbers of his unit would receive a paynt and also a discount on their rchandise.
On the first days, Zaos didn't notice any changes since they only could work in the afternoon. In the mornings, they had to do their howork which was their daily training. However, after a few weeks, the mbers of his squad began to relax more around Zaos. After all, they had plenty of free ti even in their working days, and they received so excellent discounts in the capital's best shops. Zaos didn't make them directly cooperate with each other in order to build so trust, but he made their loyalty toward the unit increase, and now they will try harder to fit in, all in order to stay in the group and enjoy those benefits for as long as possible.
