The training itself was nothing special.

The first session was a shooting exercise. Compared to obstacle courses that required full-body exertion or drills that had us rolling through muddy terrain, this was nothing. We completed it with ease.

Before the next phase began, I managed to get close to Ishina again. His earlier words had left me with a lot to think about.

“I have a question.”

“Go ahead.”

“I think it’s right for me to marry Aquila, but do you think it’s the right choice?”

1. The soldiers playing the "monster" had to be physically tied together with a rope to simulate a single, large creature.

3. To enhance the realism, they had to occasionally let out "monster roars."

("RAAARGH!")
