12 Training Arc Begins

3 days have passed since Leo and Alex arrive at the forest. A lot of things have happened during the days but it was mostly Leo building the training ground for him and Alex. Alex was also teaching herself on how to cook food since it was embarrassing for her to not do anything when she just accepted to be Leo's housewife.

"What am I doing here brother, Have you finished on building the training grounds?" Alex said while she was tied in a blindfold, She couldn't see anything and just expected for Leo to give her a surprise.

"Take out the blindfold," Leo said while smiling at Alex. Alex slowly took out the blindfold and saw a field that was 3 km in diameter. It was very surprising on how other people would not notice this massive flatland devoid of trees.

"Wow, Brother you made this yourself" Alex said while looking around the Training grounds, While she was staring at the middle of the training ground she founds a table with a lot of weapons on top of it.

"Alex choose your own weapon, This table has many weapons reaching from long range like Guns or Bows and short range like Daggers and Swords" Leo spoke while presenting the whole table towards Alex.

Alex circled the table many times and found a lot of weapons that her brother spoke about, She was finding a weapon that was suited for her. A weapon that was completely comfortable for her, A weapon she could trust for her life.

"There are many types of weapon varying from Bladed Weapons or edge weapons, Polearms or pointed weapons, And Blunt weapons" Leo explains the whole types of Melee weapons.

"The First kind of Melee weapons is the Bladed Weapons or Edge Weapons. Which cover swords, axes, fighting knives, and daggers. These weapons are designed to cause cutting, dismemberment, and exsanguination injuries, and are most effective against minimally armored opponents. These are used to cut, hack, slash, thrust, or stab."

"The Examples of the Bladed Weapons is the Sword, Knives, Dagger, Axe, Sickle, Katana, Saw, And Many more depending on the culture they are on."

"The Second kind of Melee weapons is the Polearms or Pointed Weapons. Which cover spears, pikes and almost all pole weapons. They typically have a sharp point designed to inflict penetrating trauma, even against heavily armoured opponents, and the length of such weapons gives a range advantage. Certain variants may also hook at enemies to disrupt and disarm them, or pull them from atop horses. But now a days most of the Melee weapons were discarded due to the existence of the guns"

"The Examples of the Polearms is the Halberd, Spear, War scythe and Much more"

"The Third and Lastly type of Melee weapons are the Blunt weapons. Which cover clubs, maces, war hammers, staves, and flails. These weapons are designed to cause blunt trauma, even through the armour that would protect against penetration by pointed or edged weapons. The Pain of getting beaten to death is not a good pain"

"And the fourth but not an official type of weapons are the Specialize weapons. There isn't a limit on what they do, unlike the other types of weapons that had specific details." Leo had finished his long explanations about the Melee weapons.

"Now let's talk about the Range Weapo-" Leo was cutoff by Alex's voice.

"I have pick my own weapon Brother" Alex said while holding the katana that was in its sheath. She was swaying it around like a kid that had their new toys but thankfully the sheath was closed and It needs some kind of identifier to open the sheath. This was created by Leo so that no one can steal their weapons since Leo didn't want that kind of situation to happen.

"A Katana huh, The memories about the weapon were good but you need skills to use it" Leo said while reminiscing his past, The blunt weapons although effective are not practical. The stamina it uses is more than the Bladed weapons and they were also heavy. The Bladed weapons were popular during the apocalypse since a blacksmith manages to create a blade that couldn't be dulled over time during every battle. This made a great sensation on the apocalypse world, The reason many people didn't try to use bladed weapons was that they were easily dulled by the experiences during the battle.

The Katana that Alex chose was pitch black in color, If you use this katana at night no one would notice it. It was also very smooth and very good for assassination, The handle of the sword had a strip of white but that was it. The blade itself was pitch black so this was probably customize for one person.

The weapons that Leo got came from the underground base which means loot, He just stored this on the back of the Marauder for future use. He stole many things that could be considered useful for him, They were even advance things inside the trunk of his car.

Leo also remembered that the Apocalypse Alex also had a Katana on her back, Remembering this he couldn't help but smile towards Alex who was swinging her Katana around.

"Alex in order to use the Katana, You need some training" Leo said while taking the Katana that was on Alex's hands, Alex couldn't help but pout when Leo took her Katana.

"What do I do Brother" Alex said as she looks at Leo, She was confident on whatever her brother throws to her.

"Well the first training would be a physical training, 1000 push ups, 100km run, 1000 sit ups, 1000 squats and swing the katana 1000 times everyday" Alex heard her brother speaking some unknown satanic languages when Leo explain the training. If it was a normal human they would curse at him but Alex was literally stronger than a normal human.

"No brother, I beg for Mercy. Why... I will do anything other than this, Please" Alex begged her brother, The training was too hard for her even with her determination. The training was too hard.

"Hehehe, The training would mold your body into shape" Leo grinned and laugh evilly towards Alex. Alex was shocked when she saw her brother looking at her as if she was a prey, She couldn't help but think that her brother was a training maniac.

"Nooo!!!!" Alex tried to run away from her brother but Leo teleported right next to her and carried her away. Alex on Leo's arms was depressed but after a while later she was completely comfortable on Leo's arms while she was being carried.

————————————————————

On some grassland, A girl was swinging a katana she was panting and her body was covered in sweat. She just keeps swinging the katana without bothering with her appearance, Her serious but cute face was very refreshing.

Right beside the white haired girl was a boy 1 year year older than her, He was watching the girl with interest and just kept cheering for the girl.

Leo felt guilty when he saw Alex tired face, But he was still confident on his decision. He was the same when he tried the training during the apocalypse, The first training he got was the a man that came from the Special forces. Which was why he got a Special forces technique skill, The man was told to be the last survivor of his squad and most of them died protecting the politician pigs.

He taught Leo many things, Like the how to shoot a gun, how to make your body stronger, And how to make your body spend low stamina as possible. Leo was taught many things in order to survive the apocalypse world.

To be honest the only reason Leo died was that he was betrayed by his employer when he was hired to take care of a zombie horde. What he didn't expect was that the zombie horde numbers millions of zombies, He got surrounded and was also bitten as he trapped himself on a rooftop in the middle of nowhere.

"965.....966..967....968....969" Alex was counting her swings while panting, This was her first time swinging a katana in these numbers. It will be a long time for her to adapt but she will adapt and make her body stronger.

"Go Alex Go" Leo was cheering on the distance, He was happy that the first time of Alex swinging a katana she completed the task given to her without giving up.

"998....999..1000!!!!" Alex falls the to the ground while panting, The training was very hard but as long as she will be strong enough to be with her brother she would do anything for it.

"Are you okay?" Leo ask while smiling, Alex looks at her brother and smiled back. She knew that her brother was proud of her and this expression made her determination stronger than ever.

"You should return to the cabin and take a rest." Leo said while heading towards the forest. Alex was curious on where her brother was going. But she really need a rest, Alex felt her bone breaking while her muscle was strained.

Leo walked towards the forest and took out his Glock, He plans to increase his skills mainly the Gun mastery and the Special Forces Techniques. Charlotte told him that training his skill would make it upgrade itself without using a skill point, This made Leo see a loophole. All he has to do was train the low level skill and until it reaches the harder level that even training won't upgrade the skill, then he would use the Skill point to make the skill level up.

As he continued to walk, Leo saw a small training ground that was filled by logs and stones that were all around the training ground in a weird way.

Leo made the training this way so that he could simulate a natural terrain, He also plans to practice the ninja run. It was useful for him saving stamina while running around. Parkour was also important on dealing with a natural and man made terrain such as cities or towns.

"Charlotte are you there" Leo thought to himself.

[I am here Leo, What do you need?] Charlotte's mechanical and emotionless voice could be heard.

"I'm going to start a training, I just want to ask you how to get stronger since you were the one that told me that training would make me strong" Leo said towards Charlotte, After saying it an awkward silence enveloped the two. Leo was patiently waiting for Charlotte to speak to him until he heard a notification.

[Leo, Do you Accept Quest request]

"Yes" Leo accepted the quest request since this would be probably connected on his training. Leo just waited for the notification to be heard but when the notification appeared a SPAM of words that Leo kept hearing engulf his mind.

He was already not bother by it since this would happen many times if an Important quest comes up and his stats is almost 20 times than a normal human. This kind of thing would not affect him even if it keeps staying on his mind for a day.

[Training Arc Quest Activated]

[First Quest Physical Training: Make your body stronger (10,000 push ups, 10,000 sit ups, 10,000 squats, 10,000 km run, and lift a 10 ton dumbbells for 10,000 times) Quest rewards: 150 on all attributes]

[Second Quest Skill Training: Make your skills at God level (All skills should be use in this method 10 times from E to D, 100 times from D to C, 1000 times from C to B, 10000 times from B to A, And 100000 times from A to S) Quest rewards: You can get 5 skills from the skill shops for free]

[Third Quest Resistance Training: Nothing can hurt you if you nullify everything (Trained your resistance via Normal method and you would gain skill about resistance) Quest reward: Nullification skill]

[First Quest: 0/730 days completed]

[Second quest: You would gain the rewards if you level up all your skills into C]

[Third Quest: Get resistance on everything then you would get your reward]

Reading the Quest, Leo couldn't help but choke himself. This quest was very hard and Charlotte was avenging Alex by giving Leo 10x more than Alex and it was everyday for 730 days. But the reward is enticing.

"All of the quest are very good, The first quest would give me 150 attributes on all of my attributes although the method is quite harsh but what did our ancestors say. The More rewards you want, The More hard work you need."

"The second quest is interesting considering the fact that I haven't checked my skill shop yet but the reward of having a free 5 skills is like a gold waiting in front of you. There are many skill I need and upgrading them this way would be efficient rather than doing it without knowing how it works"

"The third quest would give me some sort of invincibility on harsh stuff like Poison, Cold, Burn, Hunger, Mental, and many more that is connected to resistance. Wait.... Now that I think about it if I get this skill the moment a zombie bites me I wouldn't get infected anymore but still I wouldn't get my self bitten since the pain is not good and I'm not a masochist"

Leo reminded himself about the 3 quest that was given by Charlotte and couldn't help but smile in satisfaction. He was satisfied by the rewards from the quest since this would make him more powerful.

'The greater the suffering, The more you get' Leo thought about the words of a crazy guy during the apocalypse.

"Conquering the world would be interesting" Leo said while looking at the skies.
