After morning training I went to the calling centre which i and some others use.
I Don't have a phone right now.
It's good that i put up a method where you can slowly pay off the Costs for mobiles.
But before that i need to muy my sister, Mother and father some too.
They Don't have communication methods either.
And, apparently a lot of My sister's friends make fun of her for not having a mobile.
Judgemental brats.
Nobody has done that to us or anyone here.
For not having mobiles, they Don't treat us differently. Which is nice.
They are mature enough to not make fun of prople for their financial situations.
We are allowed to go out once every Week which is today, First i need to send some money to my parents.
After than go and make a bank account, register for credit and debit cards for myself.
It's nice you can buy more than 1 item on This method.
I can but all 3 at the same time.
Well, this benefit only applies to soldiers so it means they Acknowledge us as Protectors.
We get these benefits and extra 10-20% discounts on Every product available on the market.
They really treat respect the Empire's army.
The army's main focus is protection of the country and the continent and Withhold public order.
There are special corps in the army that Fight demons, these people collab with other continents to fight against demons.
This is called Demon Subjugation Party.
DSP for short.
They receive insane payments with the average party member getting 2 Lakhs to 2.5 Lakhs every Month also including high alert area benefits and other Allowances which amount to a total of 3 Lakhs.
While learers get 10 Lakhs every month of Exploration.
If you die while serving there your family get's around 1 Crore on ex grata scheme.
There's pention schemes, Providant fund scheme and many more that are present in this world like in mine.
The Soldiers are really looked after by both the Continent and the nobles.
Well they are afterall the front line of defence and offence for any Country.
The training, It has not been easy in the least.
Pvp battles once in a week, Weapon trainings, Mana usage restrictions.
A lot of things are in play to make us tougher as Soldiers and i have been failing at almost all of them.
I'm on the verge of failing this training and i do not know what to do.
while in utter turmoil and mixed emotions i dialed the number to which my parents could attend to.
After half an hour of waiting for the call, i finally got one and crosschecking the number it was the one that i called.
"Son? Son? Is that you?"
"Mom... Yes, it's me."
"Ace, It's really you. How are you?"
"Is it ace?"
Someone's rugged voice could be heard from behind my mother. It was probably my father.
"Father?"
"How are you son?"
My father asked me.
"I'm fine. I'll send the money tonight. So Don't worry."
"That's not why we called you. We were just hoping to talk to you."
"Well... There's a surprise coming for little lily tonight."
"Don't call me little lily."
It was my sister this time that answered.
With the memories i have this body's owner calls her Little lily.
Her name is Lily ace.
"So you are here too? Lily."
"Ofcourse."
I'm yet again blessed with a beautiful family.
I'm aleays lucky when finding people who love me.
Well, that only works on family because everyone else doesn't even care about me no matter how hard i try to make them care about me.
Maybe that's why i was relatively fine with dying alone because except for maybe at home I've been alone 100% of my life.
So it didn't feel weird for me to live alone another 20 or so years because if i were in the army, chances of death was very high.
Even if i Don't find anyone who loves me here either, it probably wouldn't faze me because of the fact that I've pretty much given up on love.
"So when will you call again?"
"Well... We'll probably get to talk every day from now on."
"What do you-"
"Well i have to go now. I'll talk to you tonight so Be prepared."
...
"He's grown up so much."
"He sure has. Now, he's even taking care of us. I wish i could buy him a phone so he wouldn't feel bullied but in the end i couldn't buy him one."
"It's fine dear, He'll understand. He's very mature."
"What about me? I've endured long enough from those stupid bullies. I wish i had a phone."
"Don't worry, By next month We'll have enough money to Cover for the loans and buy you a new phone."
"What? Seriously?? Thanks dad."
Lily jumped in joy as she heard her father reassure her of buying a phone.
As she ran back to her room.
"Are you sure? There's still not enough money, We can't ask too much from Aaric since he also has to survive too."
"That's true, He has to have fun with friends and everything else too. I thought I'd ask an extra 5000 but i'm worried."
"You should have thought before peomising things. Now she'll create a ruckus for not buying her a phone next month."
"It's fine dear, I'll just have to make one of them wait."
"What?? They are already at your throat multiple times, If you make them wait now they'll do something unimaginable dear."
"It's fine... The best they could do is Kill me right? I can't let my daughter get bullied any longer."
"Dear. Maybe if i go back there."
"NO... Definately not."
"But..."
"I won't let you go back there, It took me my entire life to save you feom those people."
"...Fine."
"Hello, There's a Mail for you."
"Hmm? Mail for us? At this time?"
"What? This..."
"Lily! Lily! Come down."
"What? What happened mom? why are you shouting?"
"Look at this."
"This..."
