Begging for a training session

Grel : "Haaahh..." Sit down on my bed. "That was quick, I need to meditate later and recover my power again."

Then I heard a huge sound from Arhi stomach grumbling. I look at her.

Grel : "Aight. Let's-" Before I finish talking. There's another stomach grumbling. It's from Fasmel .

We both look at her.

Then Fasmel woke up and looked at us. Her eyes were half open and crying.

Time skipped and we walked out from the tavern Arhi and I visited before. And it's about noon.

Mr. Kim: "Thank you very much!" he said it loud so we could hear it from the outside since the inside tavern was always full of people.

Arhi : *Stretching her hand. "Hmmmmppp... *sigh I feel better."

Fasmel : "Huaahh I always go there whenever I finish training myself. It's always the best." Then she looked at Arhi .

Fasmel : "Hey Arhi , do you know who Mr. Kim is?"

Arhi : "Hmmm? That rude man? Why are you both questioning the same thing?"

Both I and Fasmel look at each other.

Fasmel : "I see, so you don't know it yet."

Arhi : "Who is he?"

Fasmel : "His the one who can defeat high-rank demons by himself back then. He is not even that old compared to the grandmaster from the Bulwark kingdom."

Arhi : "What rank is it?" She asked the demon rank.

Fasmel : "Rank 7 demons" Arhi was surprised to hear that.

Arhi : "What? Alone? How?"

Fasmel : "See. I don't even understand it with logic. But my father said it because he is smart. He was once called an 'Unpredicted entity' by demon troops."

Arhi : *Feels defeated. "*sigh. Why does everyone I hate was a strong person."

Grel : "I don't know if I told you this before Fasmel . But I was trained by Mr. Kim before."

Fasmel : "No you are not. But I know it, you've been trained almost every day in the morning inside this arena right?"

Grel : "Where do you know that?"

Fasmel : "Well I've been going to the arena every morning and used to train. But one day I heard someone talking in the arena while I was about to enter the arena. And it was you and Mr. Kim. I hide behind the wall and shadow to not expose myself.

I see you struggling to even hit Mr. Kim back then. And from that day, I keep coming and just see you get trained almost every day. Well, not every day though."

Grel : "Hmmm... That's weird."

Fasmel : "What do you mean?"

Grel : "Mr. Grel has good aura detection in the distance. If you are hiding like that, Mr. Kim would easily detect you from the beginning."

Fasmel : "..."

Scene change to Mr. Kim's perspective.

Kim: "Waaah... Enjoying life as a shopkeeper is amazing. I feel alive." with a happy expression.

Someone opened the shop door loudly. And also the *Clincling. It's Lenni.

Fasmel : "Mr. Kim!" she tried to breathe after running back to the shop.

Kim: "Nevermind. I'm gonna be dead soon."

Fasmel walked toward Mr. Kim from the door.

Melin: "Ara. Young queen. What's the matter? You seem in a hurry." Fasmel finally got close to Mr. Kim.

She bowed to him 90 degrees.

Fasmel : "Please! Teach me to be a better user! I beg you!"

Kim: "Um... I think you get the wrong person here."

Fasmel : "I just realized Mr. Kim already knows me looking at Grel from the beginning. I was so weak because I just realized it right now. Please! I beg you!"

Kim: "Eeehh... As I said, you got the wrong person."

Melin: "Darling, everyone knows who you are. Look, she's begging you."

Then someone opens up the shop door. "Clingcling again. It's me and Arhi .

Arhi : "Mr. Kim!"

Kim: "Okay my life is about to die now is my soul???" While Arhi walks toward Mr. Kim.

Then Arhi finally gets closer to Fasmel 's position.

Arhi : "Please teach me as well! I beg you!"

I look at Mr. Kim, he is confused about how to dodge the request. At this point, everyone is looking at both Arhi and Fasmel begging Mr. Kim.

Mr. Kim looks so confused

Kim: "Umm..." thinking for a second.

Then he sits down on the chair beside him and tries to hold his head with his right hand.

Kim: "*sigh. Alright"

Both Arhi and Fasmel look at Mr. Kim and feel really happy.

Fasmel : "Is it true?"

Kim: "But I don't have thought to teach you."

Arhi : "What? Is it because I'm a bow user?"

Fasmel : "But Im also a sword user like Mr. Kim. Is it because Im using a heavy sword?"

Kim: "Listen here. I already train Grel back then and it took about full 5 years to teach him." Mr. Kim looking at me. I feel like he says to me, why you told them with an intimidating look.

Kim: "And now I have a tavern I need to run. I can't just close or leave my beloved work there alone for a day and week and month." he looks at both Arhi and Fasmel .

Fasmel : "That's..." She stops her talk, seems she understands the burden.

Arhi : "I see. I'm sorry for the trouble." then she turned back and tried to leave the shop.

Kim: "I didn't tell you there's no other way to teach you."

Arhi stopped her step.

Kim: "I can teach both of you to improve your power in some way, but we have a young prince here. Remember, he is the only person I teach. You could ask a young prince about the fighting field."

Time skipped to my bedroom. It's almost entering nighttime. The sun is in half, and we all come back on the way to my rented inn. But in the middle of the way, Arhi and Fasmel decided to go to Fasmel 's mansion. Since this kingdom is Fasmel 's home, Arhi wants to explore around with her. Meanwhile, I arrive at my rented home and meditate on myself since I've used my power in tarearenaore.

After a moment. My power feels fully recovered. Then I stop my meditation and stretch my hand.

Grel : "Finally..." I look outside of the window. "the moon is already rising. Maybe I've been meditating for around 3 hours." The outside is already midnight.

I look outside by the windows.

Grel : "I haven't visited someone else here." The wind breathes. The sound of people talking is still active. It's still not pretty late. I see people still walking around the kingdom too.

Maybe I should visit Fasmel 's mansion too. I remembered my training with Fasmel before. It still does not count as training for me. Usually, after I cast level 10 enhancement power, everything will be fine. I've been used to using these combos since the last time I finally graduated from Mr. Kim's training. But I never thought it would be different. *Trying to breathe deeply while the wing also breathes toward me.

People with power and speed are always something else. I look at my hand. I feel not lucky enough as a shield user. I closed my eyes. And gripping my hand hard. I shouldn't think too much about it. Then I look at the moon.

Grel : "I should spar again with Fasmel later."

Someone opened up the door of my bedroom. I looked back and saw it was Fasmel . I thought it was Arhi .

Fasmel : "I'm back..."

Grel : "Fasmel ? Please don't sleep here." the bed size is only for two people. I can't move freely if she sleeps here.

Fasmel comes closer to me.

Fasmel : "That's rude..." She reached my position near the window. "Did you not want to sleep with me?"

I stare at her for a moment. Then turned my body again looking outside by the window.

Grel : "What's the point of letting you sleep here? It just makes the bed more scuff." But as a man, I want to. But again, I can't just stay here forever, I need to roam to somewhere I need to go sooner. I'm not sure if I bring another person to accompany me. It's a really long one

Fasmel 's expression changed.

Fasmel : "You could just ask me to sleep in my mansion you know."

Grel : "Well, that's true. But you both will do the same as me to rented an inn when you visit another kingdom alone isn't"

She looks silent. She doesn't seem to counter my argument any further.

Fasmel : "That's was true thought." she look outside by the window same like me. "But sometimes, a girl just wants to enjoy her life you know."

I lurk at Fasmel 's face. Trying to see her expression. Then I look back at the sky.

Grel : "I have that side too. As a young prince, other than helping people in our kingdoms who needed, as part of my job to gain trust, I do want to enjoy my life even just for a day."

Fasmel : "Hmmm..."

Grel : "And I want to end this endless war too."

She looked at me. Then she understands what I mean.

Fasmel : "I didn't expect that from you. But if you died, you didn't have a chance to enjoy your life, wouldn't you?"

Grel : "If it's for people, for friends I care, for family. I would do that."

Fasmel didn't answer it for a moment.

Then she leans toward my shoulder.

Fasmel : "Don't die yet okay."

I looked at her. Her head was on my shoulder and I can smell her hair.

Grel : "You too."

Fasmel : "Do you have a detailed plan to stop this endless war?"

Grel : "I do. There's a last Luna family alive out there."

She was shocked and moved her head off my shoulder.

Fasmel : "Really?"

Grel : "Yea. I also already told this to another kingdom in our meeting before."

Fasmel : "That's good news. We can get a power and speed buff from that Luna family."

Grel : "It is."

Fasmel : "Is it man or woman?"

Grel : "It's a woman"

Fasmel : "Aahh-"

Grel : "And she is blinded"

Fasmel : "Ah... I see..."

Then I tell her the backstory of this last Luna family.

Fasmel : "Hmmm... You think she is still alive?"

Grel : "I don't know. Nobody knows. But I need to find her. If we find her, we need to tell her not to use the final power by any means."

Fasmel : "I cannot disagree about that."

Then the moment of silence suddenly appears. The outside of the kingdom became quieter, almost there was no sound of people talking. And there's almost no one walking outside. The time might be already late at night.

Fasmel : "Now can I sleep here?"

Grel : "*sigh. Fine do whatever you want"

Fasmel : "Yeeeeyy...."

Grel : "Why do you really want to sleep here when you have a comfortable mansion."

Fasmel froze for a moment.

Fasmel : "Umm... I can't let the other girls have their night only for themselves."

Is she means Arhi ? Wait about Arhi , where is she?

Grel : "Wait where is Arhi now? She is still not coming back."

Fasmel : "She said to me she will be training her bow power in the arena this late. She will be back soon."

Arhi is consistent to train her focus. It's true, we need to keep training our focus. Using the power and trying to infuse it into our weapon can impact our minds depending on how long they hold it before it's used. But not like the sword user and shield user, after we infused our power on it, it will remain until the duration is gone. A bow user will have an additional arrow. The arrow can also be infused, but it really needs to be calculated really well because bow users can't use the arrow again after they shot it. Bow users really got more power from bow-power-infused and arrow-power-infused. But to reach perfect power management. It needs a lot of focus on how much they need to infuse it in every arrow they had on the war.

Then suddenly someone opens up the door of my bedroom late. It's Arhi . Seems like she is going back after her training. She looks really tired.

Arhi : "Hm... Lenni, why are you here."

Ow... I think this is going to be another endless war.

Fasmel seems just looking at Arhi and standing still. She didn't answer her.

Arhi : "Whatever..." She walks and comes closer and jumps onto my bed. "I can't even think anymore."
