It is with humility and not a little sadness that your recount the previous events to the captain. You tell of Instructor Ko’s noble sacrifice to buy time and how you only managed to slay the Moblin thanks to the aid of your fellow trainees. The captain nods along as you speak, turning everything you say, over in his head. When you finally finish the captain speaks “Yes, that pretty much matches what the other trainees said.” Laro places his hand on your shoulder and gives it a squeeze. “Don’t weep overly much about instructor Ko’s fate I suspect he was glad to have given his life to save his trainee’s, especially one as talented and humble as you. Now why don’t you two get some rest you’ve had a hard day and no doubt need it.”
The captain’s words along with the adrenaline wearing off make you realize just how tired you really are. You and Joz head off to the barracks. Joz immediately goes to bed falling asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow. While you go to wash the Moblin blood off before finally succumbing to the need for sleep yourself.
The next few days go by slowly as a new instructor is found for your batch of trainees and your training resumed. You notice that most of the other trainees treat you differently now. Some treat with awe and almost reverence and the others treat you with a deep respect. Joz is still Joz though “Hey Matt, I’m thinking of starting a fan club for you. You’ve got enough bootlickers around here that we could probably get them polish your armor, shine your boots, and wipe your ass for you.” He treats you the same as he always has, which is honestly a nice break from the respectful distance the other trainees seem to but you at.
