The Training (2)

Levin woke up the next morning and felt his sore body with a grimace on his face. Fresh air flows through the window of his room.

Master Haldor really did not hold back...

"Ah Levin, Darling ! Good Morning !" His mother smiled.

She walked up to him and gently patted his head. Her huge bust slightly jiggles due to her body movement.

The reincarnated Levin used all of his power, to not stare at her. After all, it's still somewhat weird for him, to accept his parents. Even though he doesn't remember anything about his past life.

Don't stare , Don't stare ...

Master Haldor did some practicing before Levin came outside.

Does this man never sleep ?

The strict Man greeted Levin with a bow and didn't break eye contact with him while doing so. He threw the wooden sword in his hand on the ground and cracked his knuckles.

"Yesterday was just a mere introduction. Today will mark the beginning of the real training !" Master Haldor spoke proudly, almost like he is impressed by himself.

You can't be serious...

With a loud sigh, Levin got into his fighting stance.He grabbed the sword from the ground and looked at his master.

Donk

"Ouch !"

Master Haldo punched Levin on his head, after he got into his fighting stance.

"Why did you do that, Master?!" Levin asked with a frustrated voice.

"You shall not start the training, with an attitude like this. Training isa holy duty and has to be treated as such." The wise Master Haldor spoke.

Levin nodded. It might be annoying, but his Master was right. He should take this more seriously. The Goddess of reincarnation didn't bless him with some sort of any power.

If he wants to be strong, he has to work towards it like everybody else. With a refreshed mind and newfound purpose, Levin got his concentration back.

Bring it on !

During the early mornings until the late night, Levin trained with his Master. The sun shone brightly at the sky, followed by a grey clouds hugging the sky and releasing a rain made out of snow.

Flowers started to grow and reveal their beautiful colors. Leaves fall down, marking the ground with their brownish color.

The more seasons have passed, the stronger Levin got. His body was still young but quite athletic.

"Look at him ! That's my boy !" His father proudly chanted as he looked at his 13-year-old son.

Levin's body became more athletic, more defined and more flexible. In this new world, the body ages quite differently compares to the world he knew before.

He may be 13 years old, but he looks more like an adult than like a child. It's either normal in Mernia to look like this at this age, or he has some quite extraordinary genetics inside his body.

Either way, Levin has achieved a remarkable physique. With a strict expression covering his face, he quickly dodges the attack of his Master.

Wooosh

With a swift kick, he managed to bash the sword out of his masters hand.

"You became strong, Levin."

With a deep bow, Levin showed gratitude in front of his master. Not only did he train his body, Levin also taught himself how to read and write properly in the Mernian language.

Even though the language is quite similar to the one he already knew, the alphabet and pronunciation greatly differs from the ones he knew.

"Thank you, Master Haldor."

With a proud a smile, Levin walked into his room. A pack of fresh clothes lay on his bed. He also gazed at a shining blade, that rests on top of the clothing.

"It's for you." His father said, as he rested his hand on the shoulder of his son.

"I am proud of you. Even I didn't train as hard in my early years as you did." His father added.

This feels great.

Levin's eyes slightly tear up. After years of hard training, this gratitude he witnessed is more, than he could've ever imagined. It truly means a lot to him.

"That's a beautiful blade, father." Levin said as he admired the shiny and clear reflection of the blade. His fingers traced slightly along the stiff side of the sword.

"Where did you get this ? The craftsmanship is beautiful." Levin whispered.

"I bought it from the blacksmith in the nearest village. Since you need a good partner when you visit the royal academy." He chuckled proudly.

"But it's not guaranteed that I will pass the test. What if I wasted all these years for nothing ?" Levin sighed and fumbled nervously with his fingers.

"Don't even start to think like that. You are the strongest young warrior, so behave like one ! If you doubt yourself before you even know what challenge will come, then you will fail at the easiest tasks." His father explained strictly.

"You are right...I can do it." Levin replied and grabbed his sword. He changes his clothes and proudly stared at his reflection in the mirror.

"Ah ! I am so proud of you !" His mother said as she walked up to him.

She hugged him so tightly, that he could barely breathe. Her voluptuous and huge breasts submerge his head completely and surround him with a soft darkness.

I can't breathe...

"Mother !" Levin mumbled and managed to get free. He gasped for air and even coughed a bit.

"We are both so proud of you." She said while whiping a tear from her eye. Seeing his mother this happy, made Levin's heart beat faster.

"That means...I can go to the royal academy ? But I don't even know where I should go..." He asked quietly.

"Just follow the big road. Many boys and girls will also walk this path. It's a tradition in Mernia that all the new students should follow this road." His father explained.

With a nod, he walked towards the door and waved at his parents and his master for a final goodbye.

The big road as a gigantic path carved into the lush and green plants of Mernia. While no one was nearby him yet, he could spot some people walking into the same direction as he does.

Old people and young parents cheered at their kids, wishing them the best of luck. The sky was clear and blue, while Levin's motivation was at its maximum. He spent the last years training everyday.

He knee just too well that extraordinary power won't come to him by doing nothing. His discipline went through the roof.

His feet walk faster and faster. He started to sprint past the other students. No matter how far he must run, he will reach his goal and get a diploma at the royal academy.

As the moon decorated the dark sky, Levin was out of breath.

What the fuck ?! I thought the academy was a few hours away...

He sighed loudly and stared into the bright stars at the sky. He remembered something, an old man said to him while he was sprinting on the big road.

"A three days walk to glory !"

"Fucking hell..." he whispered quietly.

He ran so fast for so long, that he completely overlooked the villages and taverns that offered shelter for the upcoming students.

Levin yawned loudly and closed his eyes. Mother Nature herself served as his bed for the rest of the night. It didn't take long for him to fall asleep, but his dream was more than extraordinary.

A gigantic beast climbed upon a tall mountain. It's flaming magic covers the whole land in fire. The creature roars loudly, creating a cacophony mixed with the screams of the dying citizens of Mernia.

Levin however doesn't feel scared as he stood right next to the strange creature. He actually feels...proud and happy.

A strong hunger pulls at his stomach. The creature next to him vanishes and gets soaked into his body.

Endless power and the purest of all evils purge through his soul and turn his mind into a mess that not even Levin himself can understand.

His heart was filled with hatred. Even though he doesn't know why, he wants to destroy everything that blocks his path to an even greater power.

I kill you all !

Chirp

Levin slowly opened his eyes and squinted them afterwards. The sunlight falls directly on his face. Birds and frogs surrounded him out of pure curiosity.

As he stood up, the animals quickly ran away and vanished into the lush grass and tall tress that surround him. His once clean clothes are covered in dirt.

"Great...now I have to find a way to wash them."

Levin stood up and looked at his surroundings: Nothing but the huge road and some plants. Some students walk on the path, some of them are even in groups.

He thinks about his weird dream from last night for a few seconds and then decided to follow this path once more.

I can't allow myself to be distracted

...

Royal academy, I am coming !
