Flint sized Cassie up from top to bottom and vice versa. She didn't look like a trainee or an applicant. Little did he know, Cassie intentionally wore this to impress Flint but the result was the opposite.
She gained a bad impression from Flint. He thought Cassie would not be able to pass the screening. Was she capable of accomplishing the difficult tasks? Was she serious about this?
Even the other applicants started doubting Cassie's capability when it came to physical combat, shooting, and other required skills needed for the job.
Being a member of Fiery Eagles, someone must possess an extraordinary talent. And they thought Cassie didn't possess that kind of skill.
But unknown to them, among the people there, Cassie was someone who was considered extraordinary! She possessed a supernatural talent that no one among the applicants could have.
"Next time, Applicant 0018, wear proper clothes. This is not a mall or a hang-out place. Let me remind you that this is a training camp," Flint reprimanded her in front of the other applicants.
The other female applicants laughed and mocked Cassie when she got scolded on their first day. Furthermore, it was Agent Ninth who got angry with her.
"Are you taking this for granted?" He added.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCassie was rendered speechless. She didn't expect that Flint would react like this. He was so angry. She didn't mean to offend him by wearing this kind of clothes.
'Wrong move, Master,' Scarlet spoke up in her mind. Cassie could only bite her lower lip, feeling guilty.
'Why is he so harsh? Can't he recognize me? If not for Great-grandpa's rule, I should have introduced myself to him, reminding him that I am Cassandra Davis, and my Aunt is Ella, his friend!' She lamented.
'Master, for sure he didn't recognize you. It's been so long since the last time you saw each other. Besides, you grow into a beautiful lady. It's his loss for not recognizing you.' Scarlet tried her best to console Cassie.
'Don't worry, Master. You can prove them wrong. Show them what you've got and make them eat their words, especially Flint! Just impress him with your performance!' Scarlet encouraged her further.
Cassie could only bob her head. She agreed to Scarlet. Now that she had the chance to be with Flint and spend more time with him, she would seize this moment to impress him and catch his attention.
'Alright! Let's do this, Scarlet!' Cassie was now motivated after talking to Scarlet.
It did not take long when another member of the screening team announced something to everyone.
"Surrender all your gadgets and phones. Once you enter the training camp. You are required to follow the rule. You can't communicate with the outside. You will be staying here for a month until we get the result of the screening test. So Goodluck applicants!"
The fifteen participants became so excited. They could tell that there would be intense competition among them. They should do their best to become an official member of this secret task force of the Davis Family.
Everyone surrendered their phones and other gadgets. Flint was the one who took Cassie's things to make sure that she wouldn't bring anything inside.
No need to bring any clothes as everything would be provided to them. But this screening test had similarities to military training. They were not there to have an easy life.
Each member of the Fiery Eagles would test their skills. Their survival skills, physical strength, agility, coordination, intelligence, shooting, and fighting skills!
Flint didn't pay more attention to Cassie, otherwise, he would only get a headache. He facepalmed upon seeing Cassie's confiscated things. She even brought a makeup kit!
Who would dare bring that set in a training camp like that? Only her!
Contrary to the reaction of Flint, many gentlemen were so glad to have Cassie. They were totally smitten by her beauty. They were already wishing to have her as their teammate.
The fifteen applicants would be divided into 3 groups with five members each. So they would not only be graded individually, but also as a group. Their group must perform well to gain a higher score in the ranking.
By doing this, Fiery Eagles wanted to emphasize the great importance of teamwork! Since they were selecting five new members, the group who could get the highest score at the end of the screening test would be declared as the top 5 applicants and become the new official members of Fiery Eagles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUpon entering the Training Camp, a tall guy in his task force uniform approached Cassie. He was also a good-looking man. He was Justin also known as Ten.
"Miss 0018, here is your training uniform. You should change into a proper uniform so that you can move comfortably during our training."
Compared to Flint, Justin was very kind and generous towards Cassie. He didn't say a thing about her clothes but he was worried that she couldn't move well with that kind of dress.
Besides, Justin didn't like the way other male applicants were ogling at Cassie's pair of flawless long legs. He was the one who diverted the attention of those men by letting them carry some of the firearms scattered around the area.
"Thank you, Ten!" Cassie thanked him cheerfully. She was familiar with the members of the Fiery Eagles, that's why she recognized Justin as Ten!
On the other hand, Justin was taken aback when Cassie mentioned his name. He didn't introduce his name yet. How did she know his alias?
Subconsciously, his face heated up in a blush and he got starstruck seeing the charming smile of Cassie. Her blue eyes were mesmerizing. They were as clear as the blue sky!
"Hey, did you just blush?" Flint nudged Justin's side, eyeing him with a raised eyebrow.
"Huh? Of course not! Maybe it's sunburn! I forgot to wear my cap," Justin said as an alibi, tapping his cheeks.
Flint didn't buy that. "I'm warning you, Ten. Don't be biased with our applicants. You should be fair and prejudiced when dealing with them." He reminded his comrade.
Justin just chuckled and responded, "You should say that to yourself. You scolded someone on her first day in front of everyone. You should have controlled your temper. You embarrassed her in front of everyone," Justin lectured Flint as well.
"You were a little bit harsh a while ago, don't you know that?"
Flint couldn't refute that.
