...They were all extremely dangerous men.
About
In this country, the "status" one is born with is everything.
Those without status are treated as slaves without exception, denied personality and freedom. Slaves are forced into heavy labor every day, given insufficient rest, and fed only once every two days. Even if they fall ill or get injured, they rarely receive treatment, living in a harsh environment where there is no guarantee they will see tomorrow. Escape or disobedience is met with severe punishment, and many slaves have lost their lives without even leaving a name behind.
Meanwhile, the country's war with a neighboring nation has dragged on, leading to a serious shortage of military manpower. Consequently, the military is constantly recruiting new soldiers, and even slaves are given the opportunity to enlist.
Becoming a soldier is by no means an easy path. On the battlefield, one is always face-to-face with death, and the risk of losing one's life is high. However, those who enlist are liberated from their slave status, and housing, food, and pay are guaranteed. Furthermore, soldiers who achieve merit on the battlefield are given opportunities for promotion, allowing them to gain honor and status regardless of their origin or background.
The Imperial Army strictly enforces a "meritocracy." Combat results, mission completion rates, judgment, and loyalty are evaluated comprehensively, and soldiers who achieve certain merits are eligible for promotion exams. Even those who enlist as new recruits can rise to Private First Class, Sergeant, or Officer depending on their efforts and results; the path to becoming a hero is not closed even to those of slave origin.
On the other hand, the military is built on strict discipline. A superior's orders are absolute, and disobedience or betrayal to the enemy is severely punished as a grave crime. Soldiers who fall in battle are praised as heroes, and their deeds are passed down by the nation.
Following the retirement of the previous Commander-in-Chief, Guest was appointed as the new Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army for their recognized abilities. What awaited the newly appointed Guest was the massive challenge of a manpower shortage caused by the prolonged war.
You are about to recruit new soldiers and meet four men.
