Chapter 17 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 17

In the military camp, Jaxon, a squad member known for his ability to avoid injury and his tendency to exploit weaknesses, finishes a passionate encounter with a woman. He encounters Enkrid and Rem, who are engaged in their usual bickering. Rem, a fierce warrior, and Jaxon, a more calculating soldier, frequently clash, but Enkrid often intervenes to prevent physical violence. Enkrid, driven by a relentless desire to learn and improve his survival skills, approaches Jaxon to learn how to detect enemies sneaking up from behind, a skill Jaxon uses to avoid being hit. Jaxon initially finds Enkrid's persistence strange but eventually agrees to teach him. They sit near the infirmary, where Jaxon explains that true awareness comes from training the five senses, specifically hearing. Jaxon demonstrates this by identifying the direction of the wind, the location of the doctor's tent, and a mechanical flaw in a passing cart's wheel. He explains that by distinguishing subtle sounds, one can effectively 'see' with their ears. Enkrid quickly grasps the concept, showing a level of comprehension that surprises Jaxon, who realizes the Squad Leader's potential to master even such unconventional training methods.
