Training

As usual, Alan woke up and started organizing his daily schedule. There wasn't much to organize, the only thing he had was training.

Alan got ready in a fit combat attire and went to the training grounds with Anna.

The soldiers of the' Clan Zeus Army' were training, that's what people called the duke's army. They were mostly training with swords and spears.

Everyone was busy with their training and no one took notice of Alan's arrival. It didn't bother him as well.

Alan saw his dad chatting so casually with a man who was in the army's training suit.

'Hmm, Dad doesn't talk to anyone like that, who might he be?' Alan questioned himself, William waved his hand at Alan asking him to come closer.

As Alan went close, there stood a man who had an athletic figure with blonde hair and black eyes. He looked better than most people present there excluding William. Seeing Alan's presence that man went down on one knee as he sunk the tip of his sword into the ground.

"Welcome young master, I am happy to see you healthy" and continued "I Adam Wilson the captain of the Zeus army am at your command"

Seeing Adam on his knees in front of a boy...

Thud!

"We are at your command young master" all the soldiers screamed in harmony with their heads looking down.

William just stood there laughing looking at Alan's reaction as he thought

'My son is really cute... Hahaha, what's with that reaction?'.

What could Alan do now?

Alan just stood there shocked with his mouth wide open. What else can he do when a whole army is kneeling in front of him?

He may be the duke's son but, it was still too much for him to handle.

A few seconds passed and the soldiers were still on their knees waiting for Alan's command.

"A-ah please get up" Alan stuttered it out with an embarrassing face.

All the soldiers got up and went back to their training when William nodded his head.

'They are all very powerful, I can feel it. Fuck, that scarred the shit out of me ' Alan reclaimed his composure.

"Alan, you remember who this is right?" William asked as he pointed at the man standing next to him.

The man looked at Alan with a curious face as if he wanted Alan to recognize him.

.....

"Umm...Dad I don't remember" Alan confessed the truth. He didn't want to try guessing and embarrass himself again in front of everyone.

William put his hands on the man's shoulder and commented "This man here is my best friend" and continued "... and how could you forget Victoria's father?" William questioned in a surprised tone.

'Huh, what Victoria's dad? shit, how do I escape now?', it was not very difficult to notice Alan sweating.

Seeing Alan struggle William tried to help. He didn't want his son to be embarrassed in front of his future 'father-in-law'.

Pat pat

William continued "He is Adam Wilson my childhood friend and the captain of our army" continued further "And he is your trainer from today"

"Trainer?" Alan replied as he was caught off guard. A captain as his trainer just what was William thinking? He didn't want to go back to bed for another month with broken bones.

Adam Wilson was the best friend of William Carter. He is the captain of 'The Zeus army' and very loyal to William. William just treats him like family, that's how Alan and Victoria became friends. He has five mana circles. He is a swordsman.

A silence fell

"Huh? Why don't you two have a spar" William threw a wooden sword at Alan "That way Adam will know what to focus on during your training "

Alan didn't have a say in this... he just looked at his dad with a cold face.

"Adam don't go easy on him" William ordered.

"I never meant to go easy anyway, I want to see what he is made of" Adam spoke with a smirk on his face.

Everyone gathered to see Alan and their captain spar:

Who wouldn't want to see the next heir of the Zeus house fight?

Alan put on a guard since Anna insisted and went to the sparring ground.

It wasn't a big one, it is enough for a spar.

Alan started to sweat a little and then reclaimed his composure thinking about his past life.

Alan stamped on the ground hard to stop his legs from shivering.

'No no never neverrrr, I will never bow to anyone like my past life. I will never fear anyone, even if it was the god'

Alan was given another chance; he didn't want to be a coward like in his past life. He didn't want everyone to walk on him like a stone which never reacts. He is no more Alex but 'Alan'.

Alan gritted his teeth in anger as he remembered his past life. A killing aura started leaving his body.

His eyes were shining blue under the shadow of his eyebrows. He raised his sword and took a stance glaring at Adam with his sharp eyes.

Shocking everyone watching including William and Adam.

'What a furious look, his stance is fine considering this is his first time wielding a sword' Adam thought to himself.

'My son, what's with that killing intent?' William just looked shocked as he stood on the side with his arms crossed.

"Begin"

As soon as the match started Alan rushed directly at Adam without thinking. He jumped as high as possible and gave a vertical strike at Adam.

Clang! clang!

Slash! slash!

Alan's strikes were clumsy since it was his first time wielding a sword.

Alan gave a combination of horizontal and vertical slashes while Adam kept blocking. But every time he blocked the speed and power of the strikes kept increasing.

'How can he have this much speed and power, didn't he just recover?' William pushed back Alan and decided to strike as he intended to stop the spar since he felt Alan forcing himself too much.

Clash

Alan blocked the strike placing the sword over his head. He struggled to stand his ground, he pushed sideways to divert the power of that strike.

What just happened? A boy who just came out of a coma blocked one of Adam's strikes.

Everyone started whispering and gossiping among themselves like old ladies.

He is indeed the son of a beast but he is still a boy.

Adam continued to strike, Alan evaded some and blocked the rest. After absorbing the mana stone, Alan's body felt a lot better.

A couple more strikes were thrown by Adam but Alan evaded them easily.

Alan was enjoying this fight, his body felt like a feather the more he moved the lighter he felt. This brought a weird smile to Alan's face.

An hour passed:

Anna felt anxious, she didn't want Alan to get hurt as he had just recovered. And Catherine will be furious if he gets injured. Who knows what might happen to William...?

The two were still exchanging strikes; Alan had a weird smile on his face. A smile with confidence.

To be honest it looked like he was provoking Adam to use his full strength which could give him an opening.

Adam felt irritated when he saw Alan's face 'Is he making fun of me?'

Adam smirked 'If that's what you want then, here I come.

Adam had enough and wanted to end it, he is a captain dammit!!

He may not be as strong as the duke but he is still powerful enough to be qualified as a captain.

A boy blocking his strikes was making him angry, his pride as the captain has been hurt.

Adam could see his subordinates disappointed faces. He didn't want things to turn this way, all he wanted was a spar with Alan that the duke requested.

He can't hold back anymore, 'let's end this' Adam rushed toward Alan and struck so hard it made Alan fly to the other side of the ground, his sword was broken as he held only the handle.

Drip drip

Blood was running down from his head passing through his eyes as it dripped down his chin.

"Please st- "before anna could finish her sentence William raised his hand ordering her to stop.

'Shit, I am done. He is going to kill me now! 'Adam believed as he turned to look at William. But William stood there with a blank face, which showed no reaction.

Bahahaha

A loud crazy laugh echoed bouncing off the walls of the arena.

A weird smile grew on Alan's face, he just loved fighting.

Does he have a split personality?

Alan threw the handle he was holding on the ground in frustration. He walked towards Adam while his blood dripped down his hair.

He glared through his bloody eyes. He released his killing aura which sent a shiver down everyone's spines except Williams.

How could a lion be afraid of its cub?

Only his crystal blue eyes were visible while the body sent out killing intent.

'This bastard!! How the hell is he still standing?' Adam couldn't be very less surprised at this sight.

A smile grew on William's face 'Now, that's my son.' William laughed inwardly.

Which crazy father would allow his son to go on a rampage? ...but William did.

Did he enjoy seeing his son getting hit? Never but he was a man who followed his principles.

One would only be stronger as they gain experience and Hardships. He is just like any father who is happy to see his son growing stronger. It's normal, isn't it? yes, very normal.

William is a crazy man!!

Step! Step!

He doesn't even look like a human now, only one thought ran through everyone's brains...

He is a fricking devil!!!

Alan moved towards Adam slowly increasing his speed with no weapons in his hand.

Swish, the sand on the ground cleared its way as Alan ran.

Alan quickly increased his pace as if he had a hidden inbuilt nitro inside his body.

Alan was moving at a speed a human isn't supposed to have.

Adam stood in a defensive position instinctively although he was the one holding the sword.

Alan moved to the left and swing his clenched fists which Adam could see.

Adam kept defending, but suddenly he felt a kick on his knees.

Alan targeted Adam's knees and injured them as much as possible, if Adam tried to defend his one knee he gets hit on his other knee.

Although he is a captain, he has never fought anyone with this weird style of fighting.

Adam's knees started getting bruised but he can't accept defeat to a young boy.

Alan just kept attacking Adam from all sides, Alan's every attack was successful. Adam felt like he was hit with a hammer. They were heavy…

His legs wouldn't hold as he fell to one knee a wide punch came towards Adam's face.

He put his guard up on his right side.

Adam disappeared!

Huh, where is he?

Alan quickly bent down to a sprinting position which helped him in switching directions.

He jumped diagonally with his clenched fists and Adam's chin was left wide open.

Pow!

He gave a Superman punch aiming at Adam's chin with the full force he gathered using his momentum.

Pow… crack

Everyone heard bones cracking.

Silence fell in the arena.

.

.

.

Drip

Adam's jaw was dislocated and blood drooled from the corner of his mouth.

Everyone was awestruck.

They turned to Alan who stood hanging his head down, his knuckles bruised from the contact with Adam's chin

Thud

"Alan!!" Anna howled.

Alan fell to the ground, Anna immediately rushed over to check his injuries...

He was just exhausted from forcing his body to do something it was not used to.

No one could move if they even wanted to 'They couldn't believe what they just saw they just stood with their mouths open.

"How was my son?" William walked toward Adam with a smile as he gave him a towel.

Clack!

Adam relocated his chin back and replied…

"Well, what else can I expect from your son," Adam said as he chuckled

'He is the son of a beast, he is crazier than his father'

Both laughed at Adam's comment and chatted for a while.

Adam muttered before walking away "I can't wait to see him grow" he spoke honestly.

In Alan's bedroom:

Alan's slowly opened his eyes to see his room ceiling 'Huh, why am I here?'

He looked around to notice Anna sleeping while holding his hand.

Alan quickly got up from his bed and laid anna on his bed without waking her.

'She is sleeping soundly, I guess I made her worry.' Alan walked towards the huge window in his room and clenched his fists "I feel stronger and lighter after the fight" Alan muttered under his breath.

He has let out all the anger and pain he felt in his past and now felt relieved.

Alan flashed a smile as he clenched his fists tighter "let's go training again... Tomorrow"

No one knows about Alan's past he was a kickboxing champion in his teens.

He wants to become a professional, but...

Let's stop talking about the past.

when his adrenaline was at its peak, he felt himself back in the ring for a sec.

"Ahhh I have missed this feeling, Let's train again" Alan spoke to himself with a grin on his face as he clenched his fists.

Alan was a Madman!
