chapter: 8 historical drama

• ml pov •

after finishing all the tasks to be a recruit I then became a soldier for the second time, early in the morning we then hurriedly run outside after hearing the food bell because if you miss the bell or you are still asleep in the headquarters no food will be giving to your mouth that's what I have been experiencing after I join the army on this empire.

in the past ever since I left home without my parents permission I have been living in the pit of hell growing up I thought being an adult will be easy and other wealthy people will give me a good job but I expect nothing from the other empire but ever since I enter here in the zingquang empire where I am stepping in, my life became a little lighter because of all the cheerful and humble people that help me quite a bit for some time making it hard to believe that such a community exist in this warlike world.

but after I heard a little gossip on the street, hearing it make my lips grin in a creepy way that even I didn't realise.

" pal didn't you hear just now that the emperor is on his wrong mind. " a civilian said mocking their lord

" I sure did hear it, such an emperor should not exist in this wonderful empire. " another man whispered but before they could go far a vicious cold tone on the back then make them shiver in fear and also made my head turn to see the drama but after turning around I never expected I will get enchanted by a women's beauty.

after the two men got arrested the woman who I fell in love at first sight with, look at me like I'm some kind of creep who is peeping at the woman's bathhouse, before I didn't realise she now rode her horse and vanished slightly at my sight.

" young man, what are you looking at. " a tall man who has golden armour look at me like I'm some kind of ant making me tremble in fear.

" no...nothing. " I said before walking away and that's why I join the army to find and meet her but to no luck but that's all in the past now.

after going to my line a horn then got blown before a line of tier 2 soldiers that had golden armour lined up before a figure with an imperial golden cloth then walk in the middle where the woman who I was daydreaming about earlier is beside the man while wrapping her hand on the man's arm.

" kneel before the emperor! " a man in silver armour who is known as a tier 5 soldier then commanded where all of the new recruits obey while I on the other hand just stand still frozen before a hard slap snap me out.

" soldier kneel! " the same man who shouted earlier said to my face while glaring at me where I avoid and kneel with my hand on the floor.

" Now let's get to the business shall we. " a tier 10 soldier then announced before getting a scroll and read it out loud.

" the trial today is to show what you got and what you have learned in this past week with the Imperial emperor and the general that will be your judge so give you're all if you want to be part of the elite team. " the man said full of energy before walking his way towards the emperor and stand beside him with a sword on his hand.

Going to our position a horn then sound loud in the background making all the soldiers with me ran in fast speed but since I have now an ability I'm the only one in front making all of them in shock, I just ignore them and started killing all the animal I see even if it's small or big.

but unfortunate then happens after I go deeper and deeper inside the forest, feeling all that I catch is now enough I then ran but before I could take a couple of steps a loud growl then echoed in and out making my skin crawl, stupidly I just smirk and ran towards the sound where I see a golden dragon entangled on a rope trap that is attached in a nearby tree.

then again I smirk before the dragon notice me and growled in anger while me taking another step I then heard a noise nearby so I just look at the dragon and hide in the bushes.

after all that I then peck to the side where I see the emperor calmly cutting the rope while all the soldiers that are escorting him is also calmly waiting doing nothing but standing, after the entangled dragon can now freely move it then fly on the sky before it falls down and slowly approach the emperor and unexpectedly it then wrap its body on the emperor's waist.

while I, on the other hand, is in shock at what had just happened looking at the pair one last time I then turned around defeated before I make my way towards the campgrounds as fast as possible before the night sky catch up.

arriving at the camping grounds I then notice half of the soldiers have now arrived with their hunting prey in their hands while the others are putting all the prey that they catch on a cloth and covering it all over.

just then my eyes suddenly spot the women who I have been dreaming to meet is now all alone, walking towards her she then unexpectedly turns around where our eyes met which makes me flustered.

" do you need anything soldier. " she said in a cold tone making me shudder because of the pressure but I just ignore the feeling and make my move before anyone could even take her in my presence coughing, I then took a rose out of nowhere and began my speech.

" When I saw you my heart flustered and when you look at me with those eyes I might die because of how I have fallen in love with you and now here I am also you are so lucky that me the mighty and the one and only hero is confessing face to face with you. " I said arrogantly as I brush my side hair elegantly for the woman in front of me to notice all of the handsomeness on my face.

while yang who listen to all of the cringe speech that the man in front of her stated she just unexpectedly want to throw up nearby so the man that just confessed his love will feel offended and also how dare he arrogantly said that I'm lucky that he confessed to me, hearing it yang's veins then pop out without saying anything she then punches the man on the gut making him clutches because of the pain.

while Jia wien ( ml ) clutches his abdomen quin who is looking at their point of view then makes a thumbs up and smiles feeling proud of what yang has just done.

" How dare a lowly like you arrogantly said such nonsense in front of me. " yang said feeling disgusted before leaving Jia wien who is on the floor.

on the other hand, quin who is still watching then thinks a great gift for yang because of how she beat the ml.
