"Fine then. Come to my office. You can continue the training after lunch." Did he directly come here or did he already go to his office? I hope not. I drank some water and went behind him.

"You ... you're quite good." Hm? What? What's that supposed to mean? I am good at what? Why does this man rarely speak in elaborate terms? I guess he really doesn't know how to talk casually. He sensed my confusion, so he cared to speak more, "I mean, you did good .. you're taking the training seriously, even though you weren't really supposed to."

"I wasn't? .. Then aren't you going to stop me?" Why was I not supposed to take training seriously? Am I not supposed to become a good soldier? If not, then what am I supposed to do? And if I am doing something I am not supposed to, will you not stop me?
