Honkai Impact 3rd: I picked up a Seele at the start of the game.

……

Hen was a very interesting man. Most captains only had one impression of him: that he was Gretchen's father. But in reality, he was responsible for almost all the recruit training from the founding of the Firemoth to the Ninth Herrscher, until his sacrifice.

The most famous ones they brought out were undoubtedly Kevin and Kosmo, two outstanding figures.

Incidentally, besides Hen, the person who trained the most new recruits was a certain pink fairy lady who only existed in legends and whom Yun Fuyu had never seen in person. However, when Alicia joined the Fire Moth, Hen had already been in the army for many years, and he had given Alicia a lot of pointers.

Therefore, in conclusion, although Hen's reputation is not as great as the Thirteen Heroes of later generations, he is actually the mainstay of the current Moth Chaser, a senior figure trusted by everyone... even though he is only in his thirties.

The camera then shifts to Yun Fuyu's side.

When I get up in the morning, I naturally wash up properly in the private bathroom, put on the training uniform issued by the organization, throw the spare training uniform and two combat uniforms into the closet, and then go out.

I even turned back after leaving because I forgot to take my meal card.

The cafeteria at Moth Chaser is quite nice, with many options including main dishes, snacks, and drinks. Apparently, this is the first major overhaul since May took power… well, no wonder everyone trusts her so much!

Swipe your card, pick up your food, and add more if needed. After wolfing down your meal, put your utensils in the recycling area and head to the training field.

Today is August 1st, and it's been more than half a month since I started living with Xier. This is also Yun Fuyu's first training session, because it's easier to calculate wages and seniority at the beginning of the month... Well, although it's just a guess, Yun Fuyu feels that she has grasped the truth.

Although the assembly wasn't supposed to start until 8:00, Yun Fuyu got up early and finished eating at 7:40. At that time, Hen was already waiting at the entrance of the training ground.

The man wasn't just waiting idly; he would greet passersby from time to time. He'd chat with one about the past, and with another about recent tasks, sometimes even throwing in a few technical terms, which made Yun Fuyu inexplicably uneasy.

At 7:50, the crowd reached its peak. Yun Fuyu remained silent, followed the flow of people in, checked in, and lined up.

At eight o'clock, Hen coughed twice, picked up the megaphone, and began taking attendance. First, all twelve group leaders were present, and he ordered them to take attendance of their group members. Then, he took attendance again, starting with Yun Fuyu.

Seventeen people, including Yun Fuyu, stood in a separate line to one side; these were the newest recruits among the new recruits. While there was no bullying as rumored in the military, there were certainly quite a few mocking glances—to put it simply, it was like upperclassmen watching lowerclassmen participate in military training. The onlookers were amused, and those being watched were equally amused.

Hen coughed, interrupting the lighthearted atmosphere, and patted Yun Fuyu on the shoulder, saying, "You guys, don't underestimate this newcomer. See this kid? His name is Yun Fuyu. According to Mebius's test, his Honkai energy adaptability (manipulation power) is a full 300HW, and his Honkai energy resistance is as high as 400HW."

Hen turned to look at everyone: "Although you have trained for a period of time, if it were a real battle, he would crush you with his overwhelming power. There is no other possibility."

His words were deliberately meant to highlight Yun Fuyu's strength; after all, he was a promising talent, and it was better to cultivate his image early than to have him humiliated by his son-in-law later. People these days are very shrewd.

But at that moment, a girl below suddenly whispered, "What if I use seduction? Could you please go easy on me?"

After she finished speaking, her best friends playfully nudged and shoved her, and the girl couldn't help but lower her head shyly. Although they were all wearing the same women's training uniform, the scene of so many beautiful girls still attracted the attention of many old snakeskins.

Hen laughed and cursed, "Pah! I was just giving an example, why are you causing trouble? Can you even seduce a Honkai Beast on the battlefield?"

After speaking, he didn't care about the group of lovesick girls anymore, and turned to look at Yun Fuyu, who had no expression. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "He is clearly just a big boy, but he is so mature and steady. He is indeed a good prospect."

—Actually, it's just because these girls aren't as pretty as Seele and Mebius. Those two have raised Yun Fuyu's aesthetic standards in this world by a whole lot.

And so, the morning training officially began.

The other groups each had their own group leaders, and Hen only needed to give them some pointers. But this group of newcomers required Hen's personal attention.

He first directly selected Yun Fuyu as the group leader, then had everyone introduce themselves and get to know each other, and finally began the drills.

Standing at attention is basic, but the main purpose is to cultivate patience. Nowadays, combat is mostly elite combat, so I only spent an hour honing my patience before moving on to the next stage.

"You've just arrived at the Firemoth, so the most important thing is to master some basic skills and knowledge. There's a three-day intensive training program coming up, and your tasks for those three days are:"

Day 1: Learn and master three logistical skills: battlefield emergency bandaging, wartime medical kit use, and post-war Honkai energy cleanup.

Day 2: Learn and master basic combat techniques and how to exploit weaknesses in Honkai Beasts.

Day 3: Simulated combat, also serving as a test of the learning outcomes from the previous two days.

"In the final simulated combat exercise, I will score each of you based on your performance. If you pass, you can continue to participate in combat training. If you fail, you will have to intern in the logistics department for three months before you can participate in simulated combat again. You will only have a maximum of two chances."

Soon, the logistics department arrived in a car with the equipment the new recruits needed. First-aid kits, backpacks, general-purpose weapons, textbooks… wait, textbooks?!

Nonsense! How can you learn without textbooks?! Aren't textbooks the most cost-effective learning materials?!

From now on, anyone who mispronounces HW (a unit of Honkai energy concentration, HWW watts), cannot recognize the levels of Honkai Beasts, is unaware of the weaknesses of most Honkai Beasts, cannot recite the basic combat essentials, cannot recite the definition of Honkai, or cannot distinguish between Honkai energy erosion and Honkai disease... will all be executed! (Just kidding, but it is indeed a basic ability of the members of the Firemoth.)

With a dark expression, Hen gave them the order to read five books and complete in-person training within three days. Ignoring the groans and cries of pain, he brandished his teaching whip and began his earnest instruction as a senior.

Of course, the only exception is Yun Fuyu. Who can blame her for being good-looking and talented? What's wrong with giving her special treatment?

Moreover, because I watched the story, although I skipped many parts of the plot, the mutual corroboration between the scenes helped me understand the story faster and aided in memorization.
