Records of the Weakest Emperor

Chapter 222: Christine Allana

The medical examination went smooth and it didn't last that long. When it was done, the trainees were brought over to the training base of the 3rd District Police Station. The base was located in the outskirts of Ashmelion, on the base of a mountain near the hamlet of Azucar.

Even though the place was only a training ground for the trainees of the 3rd District Police Station so that they could improve their physical condition. The place looked more like a military camp than a police station base.

"Man, this place is awesome! Look! Is that an archery range over there?"

"Oh man, they even have an obstacle course and a manmade cliff for mountain climbing training!"

"I never expected that a mere police station branch would have such a place like this to their name..."

When these trainees saw how intricate and detailed everything that was in the training basethey were obviously intrigued and thrilled about everything that they saw as they nitpicked and commented. The mud pools, sandpits, and the marked running fields as well as the garden, piggery, and the manmade cliff.

All of these made their hearts race in excitement.

But there was one person who wasn't thrilled with the sight of these...

"I think I will definitely lose a lot of weight here..." It was Zachary Casasola. He was the only one who wasn't enthusiastic about the base.

"Change into your uniforms! Remember that we are not done for today, yet!"

The police officer that had accompanied the officer with an X-shaped scar on his face gave out his orders.

Everyone quickly dispersed and headed for the closest changing room.

Once they were done changing into their trainee uniforms, they returned to the training grounds.

Upon their arrival, only a single police officer was waiting for them.

It was that middle-aged man that had an X-shaped scar on his face.

"I know that we have already met, but I still haven't introduced myself..."

"Surnamed Chavez, the first name Lawrence..."

"I will be your instructor from today for the next three months. I am once a commander in one of the Border Territories of Joselian but after some unforeseen events. I found myself in this place."

"I have already come to terms with what had happened back then. I won't say anything about it anymore, since we are not here for idle talks..."

Lawrence cleared his throat, "Remember to do what that fatty had done earlier. If you want to say something, you must always shout the word, 'Report' and then address the superior that you are talking to if the person is of a higher rank to you..."

"Only when you've done all of these can you express your statement."

"Sir, yes, sir!"

The trainees responded in unison.

"Good!"

"In the future, I only permit you to answer my inquiries with either yes or no. I don't wish to hear any extra information unless I specify that you explain any further. Do you understand?" Lawrence's manly and bass voice reverberated clearly throughout the training grounds.

The trainees straightened their backs and responded, "Sir, yes, sir!"

Lawrence swept his gaze across every trainee for a moment. His eyes seemed to be probing them before he eventually sighed, "Take over."

"Yes..."

A fatty who seemed to be even fatter than Zachary Casasola stepped forward.

"Deputy, let them have some fun on the track field," Lawrence instructed.

"I understand." Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi nodded his head and sternly declared, "All of you shall turn around and go to the track field on your left and start running! No one shall stop until I tell you to stop! Those who dare to stop without receiving any orders to stop will not be able to eat their dinner tonight, do you understand?!"

"Sir, yes, sir!" The trainees still had determined looks on their faces as they shouted and started their jog.

Seeing the trainees run with excitement on their faces, Lawrence Chavez shook his head, "The requirements for auxiliary police trainees are getting lower these days. Just look at them run with those postures and stance. They don't even have an idea how to run properly! None of them have any civil service background, even their parents do not have one!"

"What's more, there are two that even dares to become a trainee through nepotism... One is that fatty and that guy who seems to be dead inside. But does that even matter when they are clearly just regular townsfolk?"

"I might be able to turn these trainees into proper police officers in a year but in three months? Have the higher-ups gone senile, or what?"

Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi chuckled, "There's really nothing that we can do about it, Lawrence. The demand for police officers is only going higher the more Ashmelion expands its land..."

"If the higher-ups kept their incredibly strict recruitment process, then we might not be able to find a few qualified people to be a police officer in a year!"

"This is why I can understand what the higher-ups are trying to do..."

"I also understand what you are talking about... But this is not the proper way of introducing more police officers into the force."

"The requirement is too low!"

"It will drag down the overall quality of our police officers! Have they not learned their lessons from what had happened a few years ago in that massacre? The reason for that massacre in the first place was the incompetence of our police officers!"

"If they hadn't attacked those farmers and acted strictly based on the standard operational procedure, then that atrocity wouldn't even have to happen!" Lawrence's mood seemed to have become worse as an angry look appeared on his face.

Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi stared at this brother of his and he couldn't help but sigh.

It seemed that even an experienced and battle-hardened man like Lawrence still had the ability to be sentimental sometimes.

Or could it be that he still hasn't moved on from the events of that day?

Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi wouldn't possibly know the answer to this question.

"Let's not think about these common people... This batch of trainees isn't that bad considering that she's under our district."

Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi chuckled.

He pulled out a brown envelope and handed over the file to Lawrence Chavez who then furrowed his eyebrows.

"Christine Allana?"

"Why does this surname sound so familiar?"

"Is it?" Eutem patiently explained, "It's because she's the young sister of the leader of the Front-line Taskforce of the Ashmelion Police Department!"

"In other words, her older sister is our senior! Influenced by her sister and after having been raised in a martial family like the Allana family, she decided to become a police officer and follow the footsteps of her sister..."

"But there is something that makes her vastly different from her sister."

Eutem deliberately stopped the exposition to create a sense of suspense.

"What is it?" Lawrence stared at Eutem in a gaze that wanted to kill.

Eutem bitterly smiled.

He didn't dare to play any more games as he continued, "She started to train under the Allana family's teachings since she was six years old. Her fundamentals are perfect and she is unmatched in all things..."

"At least, when compared to these trainees."

"I really think that she's a worthy candidate to be trained into a proper police officer. It would be a waste if she becomes a delinquent."

"I see..." Lawrence could finally smile, "At least, there's a single good seed among these trainees. That gives me some hope."

"Yeah... She's destined to be someone that's even greater than her sister. That's a guarantee, I tell you, Instructor." Eutem stated.

"Yeah, right..." Lawrence stared at the elegant and detached girl running at the front of the group.

A solemn expression was on Christine Allana's face, but the grave look on her face didn't diminish her beauty in the slightest.

Instead, it elevated it to a level that made her seem untouchable. Along with the confident way that she carried herself as she jogged, her attractiveness was off the charts.

Her body was slender, while her countenance cold, and delicate.

Her eyes were deep and gorgeous.

Even though she was clad in the same generic trainee uniform as the others, her natural disposition still made her stand out from the crowd.

Lawrence described this scene with a single sentence.

"As expected of a member of the Allana Martial family!"

The trainees had no idea that their instructors had already judged them as garbage.

They continued to run like sheep on green pasture. At first, they thought that they would only run for a few minutes.

But when that few minutes became quarter to an hour, and that quarter to an hour became half an hour...

The trainees started to complain.

"When are we going to stop? I can't feel my legs anymore!"

"Damn it! It's our first day in the training camp, but the instructors are already this ruthless... Can we even survive the next three months?"

"I have no idea man, goddamned it. I can't... I almost can't do it anymore..."

The enthusiasm of the trainees was snuffed out after just a few laps. Everyone was staring intently at Deputy Instructor Eutem Gahi. It seemed as if they were ready to just collapse onto the ground the moment they heard the word, "Stop" come out of his mouth.

Meanwhile, Calvin who was trying his best to keep up with the others didn't look as if he had exerted himself. What a joke, if his body that had been enhanced after becoming a Predator couldn't keep up with the common people...

He might as well stop whatever he was planning to do in the future.

Calvin continued a leisurely pace beside Zachary who was already panting like a dog.

The Fatty even had his tongue stuck out of his mouth as he desperately gasped for air.

"Run, you fools! Hey, you Fatty! Are you trying to imitate a dog?"

"Keep that tongue in your mouth and speed up!"

"What are you doing? Are you even a man? Look at yourselves! You are being outrun by a girl! Do you guys feel any shame? Speed up! Go faster, and do not stop! Those that dare to stop will not receive any dinner tonight!"

Lawrence stood up and started to shout at the newbies.

His words made the trainees realize that a girl was indeed up ahead of them. Sadly, no matter what they did.

They seemed to be unable to catch up to Christine.

It was as if she was going faster the more they tried to catch up to her!

Interesting...

Calvin stared at Christine and noticed the faint fluctuations of Mana in her body.

That technique...

It seems to be a rudimentary version of the Art of Mana Manipulation.

Calvin himself was using a technique to keep his breathing stable while running. With his breathing stable, blood enriched with oxygen was able to constantly flow through his organs and as a result. He wouldn't feel exhausted so easily.

This was what Christine was doing.

The reason why she still looked as if she had just gone out of a shower instead of jogging under the intense heat of the sun was because of the technique she was using...

"This girl... I wonder if she's a member of tha"

"Stop!"

Before Calvin could complete his mutterings, Eutem shouted at them from behind.

The newbies immediately came to a screeching halt.

Their knees collapsed beneath them and Fatty Zachary even rolled like a ball on the ground.

Calvin shook his head at Zachary, "Man, you should really go on a diet."

Zachary didn't know what to say.
