Chapter 223 Team Twilight At WAMO's Headquarters Part-1
"I'm called Cornelious Emerald, the President of this organization."
As soon as he introduced himself with humility, Azzy and others returned the greetings with a usual bow.
"Sir, this is Claire Lefeuvre." Ramiel then started to introduce them for formality. "This is Snivy. This is Gideon, my disciple. And this is Azrael."
Cornelious nodded to each of them. "Hello" "Hello" "Hello" "Hello"
Once the greetings are over, he said, "We are extremely delighted to know that talented kids like you join our organization and serve humanity. Lieutenant Commander Hailey will explain the details of your training program once your registration is over."
Soon, they excused themselves and the President's face turned dark all of a sudden. He abruptly turned his head towards Ramiel, "you know how much it will cost for training a special fighter. I have no problem with Azrael, the princess also seemed like her soul is very strong but the souls of the other two are pretty much weak.
It is okay if they enter the normal training regime and become the member of General Forces or even Special Forces, but to enter Elite forces, they will have to go through Hell training regime and their souls weren't strong enough.
Even normally, they might need years to forge their soul and improve its quality but you even gave special permission of attending the training for only a week of every month. How long it will take and how much it will cost? I hope you thought it through when you selected them."
"Yes, of course, hahaha…" Ramiel awkwardly laughed in embarrassment. In reality, he just decided on the test on a whim and recruited seven teenagers in the end with a simple test. "Don't worry, you'll not be disappointed."
While Ramiel was trying to convince of how the kids he brought with him are extraordinary, Azzy and the other three were taken to the 56th floor where their biometrics, retina scans, a bit of saliva for DNA sample, and little amount of blood were registered in their database.
Once the procedures were finished, she took them to an empty conference room, taking out an object that looked like a monitor attached to a keyboard without any CPU or any wires. Azzy was from 2020. So, he knew what a laptop is but not the other three. They never had seen an object like this one.
She connected a cable between the laptop and the projector. Everyone was just watching it curiously. Of course, Azzy only knew of their existence but never saw it from close, so, he was also the same as his friends.
Soon, what was displayed on the laptop's screen was also displayed on the projection screen installed on the wall.
The lights were switched off. Everyone sat down to hear the explanation about the organization and its detailed training regime.
"Okay, let me first start about the structure of our organization." A laser light fell on the screen.
"WAMO is divided mainly into to eight organs, namely League of Nations, World Security Forces, Economic & Trade Council, World Trust, World Court, World Bank, Secretariat, and Elder council.
The League of Nations is an important organ that connects us to all the nations that don't run on the monarchy. Each nation will usually have a fixed representative to put forth their nation's interests on the board and discuss the issues with other nations openly. The head of the body will be decided by a vote amongst themselves.
Economic and Trade Council is an organ that mostly acts as the mediator in economic cooperation and trade agreements between the nations. It also decides how much each currency is worth.
World Court is the sole international court that handles the disputes between two different nations if an international incident occurs because of an individual or organization. It has long been established that there's no court above this and its final decision will have to be either accepted or they will face sanctions.
World Bank is like any other bank but it only exists for the governments or Kings. Every nation or kingdom can deposit some of their treasury in it for a four percent annual interest. Then, the bank will lend the money to the nations in need of the money with a 0.5% interest. Of course, it has its own regulations, depending on the borrower nation's international reputation, credit score, etc…
These four are considered external organs. And the other four are internal organs that have nothing to do with international relations.
World Trust is like any other non-profit organization. Whatever our organization receives donations from individuals or organizations will go to that trust fund that is used in helping out orphans, poor people, etc…
Secretariat takes care of the scouting, writing reports, and allocating budget to each organ.
The Elder Council is made up of hundred Elders that are the backbone of our organization where the majority will decide the organization's role in the most important matters. Soon, they were going to decide on how to deal with the Church.
And finally, World Security Forces, where the four of you are recruited into. World Security Forces are divided into two divisions, namely, the Combat division and Non-Combat division.
Combat division has three branches, General Forces, Special Forces, and Elite Forces.
As for the Non-Combat division, it is also called the Research and Development division. They swallow more money from the budget. Because of it, we are in constant arguments with them but still, we need to work with them. The newcomers like you four might sometimes, no, actually, a lot of times end up as a guinea pig for their prototypes. You should be prepared for the risks."
Everyone immediately frowned as soon as they heard her last sentence. They clearly didn't like it. Moreover, they could also sense the irritation behind Hailey's voice when she talked about them. It led them to wonder what kind of troublesome division it might be.
While Claire and Azzy stayed silent as they understand, every organization has merits and demerits. Gideon and Snivy opened their mouths for further clarification.
"What kind of tests we will be going through?" "Are these risks life-threatening?"
"No. You can be assured that they won't be life-threatening for most of the part. But, you never know when an accident is bound to happen." Hailey waved her hands and looked at Gideon, "as for your question, usually, that depends on your sub-branch. If one is in the air force, then, it will be aerial vehicles and flight type devices, if one is in navy, then, it will be marine vehicles, etc…
But, since all of you are allotted to Elite Forces, you'll be trained in every kind of environment. So, you can say you can be called for any type. Of course, you can still refuse it but you'll be missing out on the rewards and also favor with R&D division. Our customized equipment depends on them. So, unless you have an impressive track record, it would be better to not get on their wrong side."
Until now, Azzy only know that WAMO is known for peacekeeping and didn't have much knowledge about it either. But, upon hearing all the details, he realized that the organization is far more complex than he assumed it to be.
Ignoring their expression, Hailey continued, "Anyway, let's talk about our Elite Forces. It is divided further into five subdivisions, Tiger Corps, Phoenix Corps, Dragon Corps, Whale Corps, and Zero squad.
There's no hierarchy between the subdivisions. The four elite corps have almost equal strength and numbers. However, the Zero squad is on entirely another level. They are the best of the best and only take SS-grade missions."
To make it to Zero Squad, the basic qualification needed is possession of a platinum grade Arcana spirit and Exalt realm. Then, there are numerous trials a cadet had to go through to enter it but it is not a concern for you, kids. So, let's leave it at that and talk about your training regime."
Hailey clicked on another file and projected the details.
"Your training is divided into six levels. First-level, basic exercises like hundred km running, 1000 push-ups, 1000 pull-ups, 1000 sit-ups, and Hanging leg tucks for 50 rounds (1 km). You will go through these every day until you were able to do all of them within two hours. Of course, you cannot use soul energy."
"They were basic?" Gideon and Snivy went into a daze, wondering what kind of mess they got themselves into.
