The Duke's Eldest Son Escaped to the Military

He became the focus of everyone's envy for a short moment. However, it was only for that short moment. The other kids began to ask about the units and squadrons that they would be going to. In the end, Carl Stein, who was in charge of the military supplies, was left behind.

The students asked their professors and instructors about the amount of training, the level of monsters, how tight the military discipline was, and a lot more information about their assigned units. The knights and professors answered them to the best of their abilities. However, it was impossible for them to know anything with certainty. They would only know what it really was like once they went there in person.

If one was unlucky, they would probably live in a place with strict military discipline. But if one was lucky, they could probably live a comfortable life. But, thankfully, they wouldn't really live in hell every day since they would not be living in shared dormitories like the soldiers. There was a huge difference between coming to the unit as a commissioned officer and coming to the unit as a soldier. But regardless of that, they still couldn't help but find things a bit too uncomfortable.

"Ha... Why did I come here?"

"Ugh... Crazy."

"I regret all of my choices in the past!"

They had long accepted the fact that they would experience hell in the future as long as they stayed in the Northeast. However, they wanted to at least find a semblance of comfort in this hell.

At first, the students badly wanted to get assigned to the elite units. But when they really got deployed to those units, they couldn't help but begin pulling on their hairs. They felt frustrated as they regretted the choices that they had made in the past.

Including Carl Stein, there were about 21 students who came to the rear. In fact, most people believed that being assigned to the units in the rear would make their lives comfortable. However, this was the Northeast. And there was no perfect rear in the Northeast.

Even if they were in charge of the military supplies, they would still need to block the monsters once they appeared in their vicinity. They would even go on dangerous missions to procure military supplies for the units in direct combat.

In short, there was no unit in the Northeast that was exempt from dangerous situations. Everyone would have to work diligently regardless of the unit that they were assigned to as long as they remained in the Northeast.

However, being assigned further from the frontlines meant that these dangers and risks to their lives would still be reduced even for a bit. So the students prayed that they would be assigned further away. But, their hopes and dreams were brutally broken. Most of them had been assigned to units that were stationed in the frontlines.
