There was a stunned silence in the arena and everyone's eyes were now trained on the young man who had finally managed to defeat his opponent, a werewolf after days of sparring with him consistently and getting himself wounded. They could not comprehend how he had done it and they looked at him in shock and admiration.
It was not that new trainees could not defeat werewolves. No. The ones who had managed to defeat them had taken months to achieve the feat, and Henry was just a human who was yet to learn martial arts and train himself thoroughly.
His unexpected achievement shocked everyone in the arena and they were rendered speechless for a long time until they saw their Commander walking over.
Henry's smile vanished and he stood straight with his eyes lowered as he watched the woman he respected and regarded sauntering towards him. He clenched his fists tight, his heart thumping in anticipation.
'When did Commander Aylin enter the arena? Why did not see her?' He wondered and started to brush his shirt to make himself more presentable. But to his horror, the lady had already reached him and was observing all his actions with a smile on her. When his eyes met hers for a moment, his eyes widened in panic and he immediately looked at his feet in embarrassment.
"Sir Henry, why do you have your head lowered?"
Stunned gasps filled the arena the moment the words their Commander's mouth. Even Henry was shocked and he lifted his head to stare at the woman in front of him in shock. He was yet to be knighted by the King. But Commander had already addressed him as one, astounding him completely and he gaped at her wonder.
Aylin ignored his reaction and smiled at him faintly. "You have achieved your first victory. You should celebrate with your head held high."
Henry's eyes sparkled and his nervousness vanished. Slowly, his tensed body relaxed and he grinned in delight.
"You have defeated a person who is much stronger than you. You sure must celebrate it." She nodded at him in applaud. "And you, Sir Joseph," Aylin looked at the man who was still on the ground. "Thank you for helping this lad to develop his skills. You are definitely worthy of being a supportive warrior. From today onward, I declare Sir Joseph to be in charge of the new recruits along with Sir David and Sir Isaac. You can take over your position starting this moment."
Joseph was too late to react and by the time he came out of his shock, his Commander had already left the place. He was still in disbelief and he absent-mindedly took Henry's hand when he helped him to his feet.
"What just happened, Henry?" He still felt himself to be in a dream and mumbled to himself to confirm the situation.
"Sir Joseph, congratulations. Commander Aylin just promoted you." Henry exclaimed in joy and Joseph's gaze snapped to him at once.
"What?" He was still baffled by the sudden turn of events and wished for the dream to never end.
"Yes, Sir Joseph. It is true. You are not dreaming." Henry assured him and Joseph's smiled in joy at once.
"I am not dreaming. This is the truth. I got promoted. This is the truth. Commander Aylin promoted me today." He exclaimed, his joyous smile not leaving his face and the other warriors surrounded him to congratulate him.
Though most of the congratulatory words were perfunctory, he did not mind them. He was now in charge of the recruits and this only meant that he would be able the lead the warriors who completed the training in the future. He would now have warriors under his command.
Joseph could not stop beaming as he accepted all the praises and words of envy from the other warriors while his eyes searched for the lady who had been responsible for this honor. But she was nowhere to be found and Joseph eventually decided to thank her later.
"Commander....." Erik started, not knowing how to bring the topic of conversation.
"Is something the matter, Sir Erik?"
Aylin picked the royal edicts and started to go through them seriously. Since she had been absent for quite some time, her work was now pending and she had to finish them as quickly as possible to not delay any more work.
The first document was a request from the Alpha of Soleres. He was seeking their help to protect his kingdom from the rogue wolves who had been threatening him and his people.
Aylin frowned as she went through the request letter before she stopped reading when she did not get any reply.
"Sir Erik?"
"Commander, I was wondering if it was right of you to promote Sir Joseph. Objections might rise against this decision. There are a lot of senior warriors who are waiting for this opportunity and now it has fallen into Sir Joseph's hands. The senior warriors will not be happy with these decisions." Erik spoke his concerns in one breath and Gregory nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Commander. Do you want to think through your decision once?"
"Sir Erik, Sir Gregory, I have been observing Sir Joseph for quite some time now. He is a good trainer and with him around, I do not have to worry about the new recruits. And as to the objections raised by the senior warriors, I will deal with them."
Aylin was calm as he faced the men. There was no traces of fear or worry on her face and the men let out breaths of relief.
"I agree that the senior warriors are experienced. But we need warriors who can understand the young trainees and direct them well to develop their abilities. Sir Joseph is quite capable of finding out what the trainees' weaknesses are and pointing them out to them every time they commit their mistakes."
Aylin explained her reasons for her actions and realization dawned upon the two men. Their faces now held looks of understanding and they listened to her intently.
"Sir Joseph also encourages the trainees to not give up whenever he is sparring with them. This makes him a good leader and a brilliant warrior. I trust that with him around, we will soon have some amazing warriors joining us."
Once she was done, Aylin looked at the request letter from the Alpha of Soleres, and the next instant, she rejected the plea mercilessly.
