Chapter 44: First mission (I)
A deadly silence reigned in the auditorium as the cadets heard those words. That youth bleeding next to the wall had a strong background, or he could not have sat next to Lumir and Zamir. Yet, it was clear that Vice-Captain Josef did not care at all, and the cadets did not doubt they would suffer the same fate if they uttered disrespectful words.
Vice-Captain Josef stared coldly at Lumir and Zamir before turning elsewhere. The cadets followed his eyes and were surprised to see Cain’s bursting Astral Wave Cloak and killing intent.
Cain sat in a desolate area of the auditorium, and since the cadets were all focused on Vice-Captain Josef, no one besides Levi and Beelze noticed his outburst.
When Cain saw the bloody figure of the youth that dared to call people like his father cannon fodder, he calmed down and dispersed his Wave Cloak.
Vice-Captain Josef did not say anything about Cain’s actions and calmly walked toward the podium. As for the wounded scion, no one dared to help him.
“What I have spoken up to this point is the standard distribution and roles of the Imperial Military Force. Specialized military units fulfill missions where an army’s notoriety would be a disadvantage. I will not give details of these since unless you become a Level 7 Wave Warrior, you will never interact with them.”
Vice-Captain Josef carried on with the class as if nothing had happened. It was clear that he did not fear retaliation for his actions.

“That was all for today’s class. For the next one, we will discuss battle formations and information about our allies in the Deus Behemoth Race and the Anima Mechanicus Race.”
