Chapter 28: Sunada Aisen
It was simply out of her expectation that the slim looking person will order that many things for his breakfast. Since her work was to serve food to the cadets and the officers, she didn't show any reaction on her face and listed all the things that Xin had ordered.
But deep down in her heart, she was thinking, "Can that boy really eat all those things that he has ordered?"
Normally, be it a cadet or an officer they used to take trays and bring food for them from the counter, but since Xin order was quite big and would take them some time to prepare them all the café lady asked him to sit at one of the benches and she would take the food there when prepared.
Xin's stomach was already grumbling in hunger, so he asked the lady to serve him some soup and sat on a bench near the counter.
Xin was drinking soup from the spoon and at the same time was looking around the cafeteria, observing the cadets sitting here and there. Some were playing truth and dare by rotating beer bottles on the table, while others were gossiping with each other while enjoying their breakfast.
Xin looked down and was drinking soup from his spoon when a loud voice stuck his ear out of somewhere.
"You piece of vermin shi* how dare you to talk with me like that?!!"
Xin choked on his soup and started to cough for some time. After his coughing stopped, he turned around and looked here and there to have a look at the source of that sound.
"You mother fuc*** bitch, who is the vermin shi* here?! It's you, not me!!"
Xin found the source of this squabble and saw some boys and girls were fighting with each other. He knew such happenings were common in army campus, and didn't bother to interfere. He was reminding himself that he was not the same Xin from the world of magic who used to train in the special squad army camp, and the dispute going on there has nothing to do with him.
While she was thinking about all these, the café lady came in between and served him his Indian super spicy chicken curry.
"Hehehe, wondering about those kids, right?"
"Yes…" Xin said in a low voice while trying the chicken curry with his spoon.
"Well, it's a daily thing here. They come, they have fun, they fight, and at the end they become friends again. Nothing new. Don't mind them and enjoy your breakfast."
"Yes, expected so, to be honest."
"Yep, enjoy your curry. I will bring the other dishes in some minutes."
The lady went behind the café and Xin started to enjoy his chicken curry with delight. Not only did he have food, he also had some good entertainment going on at a distance.
Sometime later the people's dispute intensified and all of them went out to solve it among them. Xin was curious about how they were gonna solve their dispute, but he didn't want to leave his curry in the middle.
After some minutes of this event, the café lady came again and served some steamed vermicelli rolls for Xin. He thanked her again and started to enjoy his breakfast in the empty hall alone.
Although he knew the matter was not related to him, deep inside he wanted to go there and have a look at the dispute, but then again he didn't know where they went and what they were gonna do to solve their dispute. While he was pondering about it a voice dragged him out of his contemplation.
"Hey bro, you are a trainee like us, right?"
Xin snapped out of his contemplation and looked raised his head, to have a look at the person who was asking him this question. A six feet tall guy, with bulging muscles and spiky hairs.
Xin didn't answer him with a "yes" or "no", and instead replied to him in a twisted way, "Yes, I am new here."
When Xin said "new" he meant the first time in the JSDF headquarters. But the guy with bulging muscles misunderstood his answer and thought Xin was a new trainee.
"Good, good. Man, you don't know, you are a lifesaver?"
Xin frowned at his statement and asked, "How?"
The cadet with bulging muscles sighed and started to tell everything to Xin. Sometimes ago they had a dispute over something with the girls, and the girls challenged them to a fight.
Xin chomped down one of the rolls as it was getting cold and asked, "What type of fight?"
"A fight of three. The group that scores two out of three will win."
"Oh~~!!"
"Yes, and we lose the first one." Said the cadet in embarrassment.
Xin "…"
Later he explained that the first competition was of coin tossing and they lost to the girls in it. Xin facepalmed and asked him, "What's the next competition?"
"Dodgeball!!"
"And you need my help in it?!"
"Exactly!! You are quick to catch up, junior. By the way, I am a second-year trainee. You are a first-year, I guess. Never seen you around."
Xin didn't reply anything and lightly nodded his head. All this time he was curious about that dispute and the person before him was there to invite him in it. He didn't waste any time and agreed to help him in it.
Both of them left the cafeteria hall, and before going Xin left a note for the café lady, telling him he will be back in half an hour.
On his way to the training room, the second year trainee introduced himself and told Xin about the current situation of the dodge ball.
The spiky-haired guy's name was Sunada Aisen. And according to him, two of their players got injured while playing.
Xin entered the training hall and saw the points on the scoreboard. Girls have 4 and boys 3. On top of that two boys were injured there. One had a slight fracture on his ankle while the other had a swollen eye, making him unable to see properly.
