464: Habits left by the master's will

Chapter 463: Habits Left by the Sovereign Will

Monday morning, the Suweier Army Camp was incredibly lively, with the sound of soldiers drilling neatly everywhere.

"You soft-footed shrimp, did you all just wake up from a whore's belly? Snap to attention!"

"Run! Slackers who fall behind don't deserve breakfast!"

"officer Isurna will be here soon. If you don't want to be in a hospital bed for a week, don't be sluggish!"

The drill officer's voice was deafening, serving as the best hangover cure for the soldiers, as it was also a blatant threat.

Although Isurna didn't like the military position of "Supervising Sergeant Major," she was dedicated to her work, and soldiers who were lax in training would be severely punished.

Even Matt, who had awakened the Heroic Destiny of a Berserker, couldn't last more than a few rounds under Isurna, let alone ordinary soldiers.

So, more than Isurna's beauty, the soldiers actually held her in awe for her strength. This was the natural reverence of the weak towards the strong.

However, now, besides Isurna, Dick had also become the soldiers' Nightmare.

Previously in the mess hall, the thousands of soldiers who had been beaten unconscious had gradually woken up. Through word of mouth, Dick's notoriety quickly spread.

Vindictive, brutal, invincible... these were the adjectives used to describe Dick, which quickly fermented in the army camp these days.

Coupled with Dick's public thrashing of Matt, this further deepened the impression that he was extremely difficult to provoke, and the soldiers almost changed color at the mention of him.

This was the effect Dick wanted, as it could avoid a lot of trouble.

After all, the Central Region not only prevalent with racial discrimination but also regional discrimination, and Dick's Northern background could easily make him a target.

Showing off one's strength was the best way to avoid discrimination; fearing the strong and admiring the strong was an idea ingrained in the bones of intelligent races.

And Dick's strong and outstanding performance naturally also led to other discussions among the soldiers, such as who was stronger, him or Isurna.

Of course, almost all soldiers firmly believed that Isurna could unilaterally thrash Dick.

Although the two had not publicly dueled, Isurna's invincibility had become more deeply ingrained in people's hearts over the years, far beyond what Dick's one or two days of showing off could compare to.

Moreover, everyone believed that as fellow heavenly talents, the Central Region's number one could not be inferior to the Northern's number one. This was a very simple logic.

And Dick also disliked pursuing fame and fortune. To be precise, he disliked pursuing meaningless fame and fortune.

If he were to defeat Isurna in front of everyone and take over her title as the number one heavenly talent, it would bring all sorts of trouble.

The strength Dick currently displayed was enough to make the soldiers revere him and Luca III take him seriously.

At a certain training ground, Dick followed Isurna on patrol, observing the drills. Their presence put immense pressure on the soldiers, who dared not show the slightest slack.

Leaving aside Dick, this brutal and dangerous individual, Isurna's strictness was real; she would actually beat people into the hospital for a week!

"Dick, how about I apply to Your Majesty to appoint you as a Supervising Sergeant Major as well?"

Hearing Isurna's suggestion, Dick smiled and politely refused, "I'm used to being idle. Being a free Investigating Officer is fine, but a serious military position doesn't suit me."

Dick was not Isurna and didn't have a younger brother in the army, so he wouldn't be tied down by Luca III.

Upon hearing this, Isurna still didn't give up and continued to persuade, "How will you know if you don't try? I'll teach you hand in hand..."

Once Apricot Lilli was brought to justice, the special investigation team would be disbanded, and Dick would become a free man, having nothing more to do with her.

That's why Isurna hoped Dick could take on a military position and become her colleague, so they could spend more time together. This was all her subconscious thought.

"We'll see," Dick waved his hand, casually prevaricating, "After the Divine Machine Witch is caught, I Matt consider joining the army."

"Oh, oh, I'll help you arrange it then..." Isurna nodded, unable to hide the joy on her face.

It was just a pity that the Divine Machine Witch could never be brought to justice, as long as Dick was an Investigating Officer.

"By the way," Isurna tugged at Dick's sleeve and leaned closer, "After the patrol ends later, there's a regular meeting for the investigation team. Your friends should come along too..."

Dick agreed with a smile on the surface, while thinking about other things in his heart.

Isurna was leaning too close. The distance between them was less than ten centimeters, which was not the distance for conversation between ordinary friends.

Dick knew that Isurna didn't realize this; it was just her subconscious intimacy.

People's bodies, minds, and souls all have inertia. Sometimes, without conscious control, they will perform some unconscious beneficial actions.

Dick knew that Isurna didn't have the habit of leaning in when talking to friends.

Less than ten centimeters, this was the best kissing distance between lovers, and it was also the habit Isurna had when she was in love with him in the previous dozens of lives.

The descent of the Sovereign Will left too many things behind, besides deep emotions, there were also some daily habits.

This point could also be proven on Apricot Lilli.

For example, sticking out her tongue during her first kiss, this was not something a shy young girl should do. It was clearly a habit left by the forty-eighth life of Apricot Lilli!

Dick didn't know what other "abnormalities" Isurna had. Perhaps as the task progressed, everything would surface.
