Chapter 16. Peace.

For the following weeks after the study and training that Landon and Hope suggested, they sit back and do normal training peacefully.

The monster came and the students repelled them. The school became a more and real magical school.

Alaric Saltzman and Dorian joins the training for martial art. They also have a taste of a dummy art.

------flashback------

"Say, Dr S do you want to test the training dummies?" Kaleb ask as he felt unfair for the students, them only to beat up by a bunch of wood. He want the teachers to share the burden.

"What so special about it? I can just defeat that blocks like I use to handle my previous enemies" he said that and walks forward.

When he cross the red line the dummy move. He moves faster than a human and didn't hold back as he slap Alaric sending him fly.

"Healers" Emma at the side shouted as Dorian rush to his friend side. "How is it? Efficient right? No fancy stuff just exploit any opening" Landon walks in and found Alaric at the floor looking at him hateful.

"Reset that thing. It ain't good for the kids" he said and thanks the healers.

"No. The monster won't hold back in their punch so they needed this" saying that Landon step forward.

The puppets step forward facing him. They can access the enemy strength and also adjust their own difficulty one step higher than the challenger.

Landon step forward with his training sword that he buy online. He bought and customize them to Killer B sword.

He flung them upward then catch them in an impossible way. He wield his blades in and between various parts of his body. The first two are held in the hinge joint of his right and left arm, another between his shoulder blade and neck, one in his mouth, under his left armpit, another between the hip joint of his right, raised leg and the back leg of the same raised leg.

"What the...."!!! All the students who were training were stupified at that absurd sword style.

"Mmmm, I know right. That is the how I react when I first saw him use it to train. He calls it the seven sword dance an acrobat fighting style" Raf standing at the back having a spar with one of the training dummy said.

"Is that even practical?" Alaric ask watching as Landon stood himself.

"You'll see" Raf said in a mysterious way.

-----;;;;;;;;;-++++++:----;----

Landon stood on his distruption taijustu with his sword surrounded by nine dummies ready to jump at him.

*Shingggg,,,,,,druip! A sweat slid down from one of the students acting like a signal impromptu for Landon and the dummies.

Swoosh! One dummy ran so fast that make it like it teleport and appear infront Landon bringing his palm to his head. Landon react the same way and do a backflip. "Sting like a bee" all his weapons found root at the dummy making it a hedgehog. He suddenly acrobat toward dum1 before falling to the ground and pick his weapons B style. Dum2 and 3 did not wait and rush bringing good collaboration and synchronization between them. Dum2 do a sweeping kick at high which Lan dodge then try to cutting it buzzsaw but Dum3 interrupt with staff poke. Dum4 join with the rest of the dummies with their own weapons.

Landon was hit by the stuff on his forearm sliding backward. He then flip and move his sword on his legs blocking and clashing with a sword dummy.

Sounds of metal clashing as the students watch with awe and horror for Landon safety.

Two more dummies down by his slash to the torso and the waist. He moves and jump while also slashing, parry and poking with his swords on his body parts like he hold them in his palm.

After the last dummy down. All the students including, Dorian and Dr S were amaze while Dr S also worrying about the training dummies.

Looking at Landon full of injuries albeit light. The healers step forward and heal them. Hope wasn't there as she train with Josie and Lizzie outside in the Mill.

"Landon we need to make these dummies more gentle. Look at myself I almost die from that slap. Imagine these kids except you, imagine them if they hurt?" Dr. Saltzman was awe but afraid of the students safety. "By the way, where did you learn that style, and how did you do it?"

"Look these need real combat not play soldier, okay? I learn it from my heritage bloodline heritage" He said then walks off.

From that day onward the healers became proficient and many students including the males teachers join the training and increase their tenacity and strength.

Alaric swore that these children love extreme sport. They also compete with each other as factions challenging the dummies without superpowers used.

Night time

'Ah what a beautiful day' look at that isn't that ah it is.

Looking at the moon surrounded by a circle of of clouds with serene and crystal interior. It means that this will be a calm and peaceful night.

"What are you looking at?" Hope ask as he watch Landon looking at the sky not understanding what happens.

"Mm, tell me what you see" he said taking her into his arm laying on the grass near the lake.

"I see the moon at the centre of the clouds like it been surrounded. I also see that there's nothing inside it beside the moon" she look at him then whisper"tell me star seer what do you see"

"Apparently, the clearing that inside those clouds signify calms, peace and good weather. The moon can be a person that need peace and hate visitors or disturbance. While walls that surrounded it was a house to keep him/she comfortable"

"How do you know all these?" "Mm, like I said it was bloodline heritage. It said that the stars and moons can also indicate weather for ancient sailors. But it can also helps for performing rituals"

"Isn't this good? Look at us relaxing, star gazing and also embrace each other never to let go" he said remembering his times in a warring states period where he fought to make his family or clan live a peaceful life. Here he was doing the same but this was early than his last life.

"Mm, you right. We won't be heroes anymore and can live a peaceful loving life" she reply kissing him.
