27 Chapter 27: Mercenary Bands Name

The soldiers rested for a day after the party was concluded as almost all of them had hangovers after the party and then after resting for a day, they would go back to Sanloris the next day.

[Author note: I change the way to call the group from 'cadets' to 'soldiers']

Razlov told them that they have two purposes in going back to Sanloris. First is to find and do some mercenary work and second is to do a live-fire exercise.

When the soldiers heard that they will be going back to Sanloris and will be doing work of a mercenary which also acts as a live-fire exercise, they were excited and nervous at the same time. Wondering if, will they be able to stomach killing a person?

-

After a day rest, Razlov and the first group embark on the path back to Sanloris. Razlov decided to divide the soldiers into two groups; 10 people in each group meaning two fireteams in each group, the first group would follow Razlov back to Sanloris and the second group will remain at the island to guard it. Then after the first group finishes doing their task they would return back to the island then the second group will be the next to follow.

When Razlov's group arrive at Sanloris they immediately went to Flying Fish Inn, for him to see Selina and rent her entire Inn to serve as a temporary base of operation for them; for the time being.

Later, when Razlov already has enough money, he plans to buy a house near the commercial district and make it their permanent base of operation in Sanloris.

Arriving at the Inn, Razlov went inside and could see that there were only a handful of customers inside there he sees Selina serving the customers of what they ordered.

"Welc~"

Selina notices that someone entered the Inn and when she sees the one who entered, she stunned for a second and then walk slowly towards him. Unable to contain her excitement of seeing him again, Selina runs to him and immediately jump to his embrace.

Razlov gently receives and hugs her back. The feeling of each other's warmth brings comfort to their hearts. Razlov and Selina look at each other and smile at the same time.

The group of soldiers at the just smile at the scene of their commander having a soft expression, unlike the usual stern expression and authoritative tone. Although sometimes their commander let out a smile, there is still an air of someone who is above others around him.

"Razlov, I got a piece of good news to tell you."

When Selina told Razlov that she has good news to tell him, you can clearly see on her face that she is excited to tell him the news.

"What good news?"

Razlov just smiled at Selina, he already had a guess at what she is about to tell him but pretended that he doesn't know anything and just wait for Selina to reveal it.

"I'm pregnant"

Silence, that was Razlov's response when Selina declared that she is pregnant. Then Razlov pulls Selina into his embrace again.

Selina is puzzled at Razlov's silence, thinking that maybe he wasn't happy of her being pregnant with their child and is about to cry that moist is already forming in the corner of her eyes while she is being pulled into his embrace. But then:

"Thank you for being my woman"

"Thank you for making a father of our child"

"Thank you"

This time Selina's tear finally flows but this is not tears of sadness but tears of joy. No need for lengthy speeches just a few words are enough and being appreciated is already enough.

After that, Razlov told Selina that he wishes to rent the whole Inn and Selina agree to it. But the customers that are still staying at the Inn must first check out before he can rent the whole Inn, right now he can only rent a few rooms for them and not the whole Inn and Razlov agree to it.

Razlov arranges everything that his followers needed, he also allowed them to visit and stay at their own respective families for the rest of the day and come back to work tomorrow.

While Razlov and Selina spend quality time together, talking about what happened this past two months. Razlov also told Selina about his relationship with 4 other women. He decided to be honest to Selina and told her the truth. He was ready to receive a scolding from Selina but that didn't come.

While laughing at him, Selina told him that having two or more wives is a social norm in this world, as long as the man is capable of supporting his two or more wives and their children that is considered normal. But due to poverty, most men are only capable of having a single wife and only rich men and nobles could marry multiple wives.

Razlov finally understood why Selina was laughing at his naivety of this world's common sense.

The next day, when the soldiers went back after visiting and staying at their own families. Razlov instructed Adam and Lesia respective team to set up the radio communication devices at one of the rooms in the Inn that they rented and put the small tower on top of the Inn's roof.

After instructing Adam and Lesia teams, Razlov went to the mercenary guild to find a request that will let them earn big and will also act as a live-fire exercise for the soldiers.

When Razlov entered the guild, it was the same as always in the days that he keeps coming here at the guild; boisterous. Even though it's still early in the morning, people are already drinking instead of working.

"Ara, isn't it Razlov?"

When Razlov was looking around the guild someone notices his presence and when he look who it is, it was Clarice the receptionist that he knew. Clarice was the receptionist that help him in registering at the guild and making the recruitment notice that he requested.

"Long time no see Razlov"

"So anything I can help you with?"

Clarice greeted Razlov when she confirmed that her guess was right, from the weird clothes and its color which mix of green and brown: it was truly Razlov.

"Long time no see also Clarice"

"Actually, I have formed my own group and want to find a suitable job for us. And I would also like to inquire if it's necessary to register every member of my group?"

Razlov asks this, as when he first arrived here at the guild, he was required to register as a mercenary to be able to take in requests.

"Well, it's not really necessary to register every member of a group but the only who would be able to apply to do a request at the guild are the registered ones and you also need to register and sign some documents that entail the name of the mercenary band you formed and it's members for documentation that will be kept in the guild and identification of your band."

Razlov ponders for a bit and decided to register every single member of the group. He also filled the documents for registering his mercenary band and its members.

And as for the name of their band, since their headquarters is at Rising Dragon Group of Islands. He named their group as:

'DRAGON FORCE'
