Chapter 1532:

After a few seconds, Harlee’s voice broke through their thoughts. Calm but firm, it carried the weight of authority.

“I trust you’re all aware of the mission ahead. I won’t waste time repeating myself. Go back and pack your things. This afternoon, you’ll begin joint training with the male soldiers.”

Just as her words settled in the room, the door creaked open, and Alina stepped inside.

“She’s the squad leader,” Harlee said, gesturing toward Alina. Without hesitation, the group of female soldiers snapped into attention, saluting in perfect unison.

“Yes, ma’am!”

Alina’s gaze swept over them, her expression as cool as a mountain lake.

“You’ll be training alongside the male soldiers. The regimen will be just as grueling. If any of you feel like you can’t handle it, now’s your chance to back out.”

Alina didn’t want these individuals to bring embarrassment to Harlee. The twenty female soldiers stood tall, their resolve etched into their faces. One of them, speaking for the group, declared with unwavering confidence, “Reporting, ma’am! We’re just as capable as the men!”

“Good.”

Alina nodded approvingly.

“For the next three months, your actions will speak louder than any words. Show me what you’re made of. Understood?”

“Understood!” Their voices echoed, steady and strong.

“There will be no leniency,” Alina continued.

“The same rules apply to everyone. Whether or not you make it to the final top-secret mission will depend entirely on your grit and effort.”

Her voice softened slightly as she added, “Now, go pack your belongings. Dismissed.”

The female soldiers saluted again, gratitude gleaming in their eyes. They understood just how rare and hard-won this chance was.

“Yes, ma’am! We won’t let you down!”

Once the female soldiers had left, Harlee beckoned Alina and Thiago over. She leaned against the desk, her demeanor all business.

“I need you both to draft training plans,” she instructed.

“Separate ones for men and women?” Thiago asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Absolutely not,” Harlee replied firmly.

“From this point on, there’s no dividing line. If anyone can’t keep up, they’ll be sent back to their original units immediately. We’re not waiting for a month to see who cracks under the pressure.”

Alina and Thiago exchanged a knowing glance. It was clear now why Harlee had given them this task. Their plans would provide just enough balance to push the recruits hard without breaking them completely.

“Got it,” Thiago said with a nod.

The phone resting on the desk buzzed sharply, breaking the quiet rhythm of the office. Harlee glanced at the caller ID and then dipped her head slightly as she dismissed the two.

“Alright, you’re good to go.”

Alina and Thiago nodded before slipping out, leaving Harlee alone in the room’s stillness. She reached for the phone, her tone steady as she answered. On the other end, Rhys’ voice carried a mixture of calm and urgency.

“There’s trouble brewing in Jusdence. I might be tied up there for a couple of days, maybe three.”
