The next day in the Valmont Camp.
Commander Gareth summoned all the newly recruited elite knights for a formal gathering. Standing tall before them, he pointed at the dense, looming forest behind him—the infamous Dry Forest—while the recruits stood in neat rows, silent and attentive.
With a commanding voice, he informed them that their training would take place inside that forest. For the next month, they would train and grow together as a unit. The recruits would be divided into smaller teams and tasked with subjugating monsters as part of their practical training.
There were exactly fifty-six new elite recruits in total, and among them was Leon. As expected, Gareth split them evenly into six teams, labeled from Team A to Team F.
