Chapter 157 - Sherlock



Liu Feng just smiled lightly and disregarded their words. This clearly taunted the others, and they were not pleased.

Liu Feng looked at the people around him. He stood true to his words. As the main instigator of this war, he did not understand what the army could do with people who had no training at all and were so unruly. In Liu Feng opinion, all these people would only let down the total quality of the army, and would only hamper its progress in the near future. This was Liu Feng\'s biggest investment, and Liu Feng did not want it to go bad.

He turned around and looked in front, infuriating the people behind him. One of them was about to come forward and raised his hand to hit Liu Feng. Seeing this, Liu Feng quickly reacted subconsciously and held the man\'s arm. He gripped it tight and was about to twist it in self defence when a guard hurried by to stop the fight.

"Stop this instant, or the both of you will be punished by military law..", he barked. Seeing this, Liu Feng let go of the man\'s arm. The man did not say a word, but inside, he was screaming in pain. He could not understand for the life of him how Liu Feng had such a strong grip at such a young age.

The guard warned him and came to Liu Feng.

"Hey kid, what is your problem? What are you doing here at such a young age? I thought that the king made it clear that the forced conscription was only for the men who were older than eighteen and younger than sixty. You don\'t need to join the army.", he reminded Liu Feng.

"Thank You sir. But, I am here because I want to join the army. I am already sixteen. That is the age that your youngest recruits are at, if I am not wrong. I want to go to war. This will be my chance to shine and show the world what I am capable of.", Liu Feng smiled sheepishly.

The guard sighed. "The war is a frightening place, boy. There will come a time when it is every man for himself, fending to barely survive. Don\'t regret the words you just spoke."

The guard walked away, and Liu Feng looked at his back with amusement. The other people stopped hurling the insults after hearing the guard speak. But, Liu Feng could feel the piercing glares of many behind him. He shook his head and kept looking in the front.

Arad bent towards Liu Feng. "Want to prove yourself? Where did that come from?", he asked in a low voice so that only Liu Feng could hear him.

"Lot of young men from villages have no other ways to become great. All the resources and goodies are monopolized by nobles, so in times of war, joining the army is the best way to prove oneself. We are going as villagers right, so this is what we will be doing. We should pose like villagers as well.", Liu Feng explained himself.

The line went forward, and after a few hours, Liu Feng and Arad finally got to the desk.

"Name please.", a dull voice rang out. An old man was sitting on the desk with a stack of papers with him. 

"Sherlock Holmes, Sir.", Liu Feng replied, barely keeping his laughter inside. The old man looked up and raised an eyebrow. "What is so funny?"

"Nothing sir. I was just thinking about something else. Please forgive me.", Liu Feng hurriedly closed his mouth and straightened his posture.

"Fine. What is your hometown? Who are your parents?"

"Sir, I am from the newly formed city, Dilheim. As for parents, I am afraid I do not have them. I was an orphan and I do not have any information regarding them. This is my friend, John Watson."

Arad\'s eyebrow also raised, but he did not say a thing.

The old man started writing something on his papers and signed them. He tore a few bits and gave them to Liu Feng and Arad. 

"You are assigned to tent 4 in the northeast end. You should go quickly and attend the recruit training. It will help you people survive in the war for a few more days."

Liu Feng and Arad nodded, and they went into the city through the gate. The moment they entered the gate, a heavy air descended upon them. The pressure was clearly high, and all the soldiers were tense. Liu Feng looked around at the temporary signs, and he went to his assigned tent along with Arad.

"Master, who are the people who have the names that you have used? These names are quite strange to me. I am sure that they were foreign to the man there as well."

"Ah! Elementary my dear Watson. Sherlock was a famous detective and Watson was his assistant."

"Famous? I certainly never heard of these people before."

"Well, they were famous in another world. For now, let us just unpack. I wish to get ready for a talk with your king, and I am hardly in the state for that. I am dirty and I am very tired. Let us go to the bath."

"Certainly master. Let us do that after unpacking."

They arrived at the tents. Once they arrived at their assigned tent, they went inside. There were two others already inside the tent. They just took a look at the two new arrivals and nodded. Liu Feng and Arad nodded back. Liu Feng put the bag that he was carrying on the side and unpacked.
