13 Ch13 Training

I am currently staring at a large room.

The room is completely covered with all types of weapons. You can literally find any weapon from swords to guns.

"Everyone take a weapon to your liking and return to me" " And also u can take more than one weapon"

Olivia said while looking at everyone.

Now I looking at the sword section. Here there are all types of swords. I wanted to pick a katana which looks really cool but after swinging a few times I know It is not for me.

After searching for some time. I found a long sword which is fitting for me. It's also lightweight.

After taking the sword. I went straight to Olivia.

She noted my name and the type of weapon I picked.

She said I can do whatever I want for the rest of the day.

I just went to the training grounds. And started practising my art.

I almost getting a hang of the first form of the

[Shadow Dance] (shadowless steps).

So I continued to practise that art even though there are a lot of people here.

This is forgotten art that no one knows about so even they see it. They can not identify it as a five-star manual.

And I can't just stop practising my art just cause people are watching.

And also my progress is getting really quick maybe because of the elixir I drank before.

I don't know the specific effects of it.

Because no one used it in the novel. But I can tell maybe within 2 or 3 weeks I can break through the next minor rank. Which is F.

I continued my training and everyone from my class started to join.

I have only one doubt in mind can I fight with the monsters?

I can tell that I am getting strong but can I face those ugly monsters and win against them?

What I actually need now is real combat and I have to face monsters.

I have to enter a dungeon.

While I am in my thoughts someone smacked my head from the back.

I turned back.

My heart boiling with rage I am not someone who takes a hit and forgets it.

Imagine someone smacking you when you're lost in your thoughts.

Looking back, I recognize this fucker. His name is Henry, and he tried to bully me the other day.

Looking down at me and he is smiling.

I don't like him.

I am trying to calm myself down.

He is at least one minor rank above me.

Sometimes you should know when to back down.

"yo, bitch wanna spar"

He said while grabbing my shoulder tightly and smiling at my face. He looks confident, no he looks overconfident.

'it hurts'

He is strong, at least he's stronger than me.

'what's with this fuckers face, does he not feel pain. I am using all my strength'

Henry thought to himself. While trying to increase his grip on the shoulder.

There are only two things you can do in these kinds of situations.

1. Let them bully you and do whatever they say until they get bored of you. Which they never do.

2. Beat the shit out of them until they are half dead.

"I accept"

Seeing the options. I can't just allow someone to bully me. And I am not confident in the second option. So I am going with both.

If my plan works then it's option 2.

If not it's 1.

I continued.

"let's go to the private sparing room"

" let's just do it here or you are scared that you will be humiliated. Ok. Let's Just go with your plan for today"

While saying that His smile got bigger.

I wanted to spar in the training grounds because the instructor will be there to watch us.

If it gets out of control he will stop us.

Of course, it's for my safety, because I am not that confident to beat him. But If I get a chance to defeat that fucker I will use it.

We are now standing in the sparring room.

"student Henry rank245 and student Arthur rank756 are you both ready to fight"

The instructor said out loud.

"yes"

We both said out loud at the same time.

Henry was using a shield. He must be a tanker.

I think his strength must be his highest stat.

I think I am faster than him or at least at the same level. And he thinks he can win with his eyes closed. He is underestimating me too much. Which is also in my favour.

When you underestimate your opponent too much that's when the chances of you losing also increase.

'I have to wait for the right moment

"Hahaha, your rank is also trash like y-"

I didn't have to wait too much for my chance

(shadowless steps).

Before he could finish his speech I used my art.

I cleared our 10-meter gap in 2 seconds.

I am standing next to him.

"ahhhhh, my arm, my arm"

Henry was shouting in pain. The whole people who are on the training grounds heard someone screaming in the sparring room.

I am in the most shock right now.

I just wanted to scratch his shoulder with my sword. But somehow I cut off his whole arm.

What a fucking mess I am in.
