Chapter 13

Title: Silent Step...

…..

I just carry the girl on my back as we walk silently. Azula takes this chance to say. "I thought you knew better than this kid."

I know that she is addressing me when she says this. But I don't say anything, I don't care about her opinion really. I do things because I want to do them, not because someone else says I should do them. 

I just keep carrying the girl, Azula turns away from me in annoyance. 

It doesn't matter, I just need to wait for the right moment to strike. The right moment which gives me the best outcome. I look around me and for a split second my eyes turn cold… this place… will have to go away.

….

Twenty minutes later and here I am, at a well lightened building which  like a gym it even has a sparring arena in the middle. The arena is just a circular drawing on the floor. But what I am really concentrating on are the weights, they have bars that seem to go up to two ton. With this I could train up to such a caliber that even pushing something which weights in tons wouldn't be a problem for me. After all a normal person can lift around 70kg, but it can push a car which weighs in tons. I can gain something like Killua's strength or even more powerful due to my dedicated training. If I can be as strong as Killua when he was my age, that would mean that I have trained in the best way possible, just like Zoldyck trains their children.

Hmmm… but I will be pushing myself to surpass Killua's physical strength. After all, a man is only worth as much as his ambition, and mine is quite high. I wanna see the limits, I wanna see how far I can go with Nen, or chase after a limit that maybe doesn't even exist at all. 

Anyway as we arrived there I put the girl down. And she was still knocked out, I also could get a clearer look at her face now that there is light around, unlike the first room.

She has long black hair, with several bangs that hang over her forehead and two long lengths of hair that drape either side of her face. She seems like your average girl, but when she opened her eyes I immediately knew that it wasn't the case.  

Her eyes have black sclera and white irises. Which is kinda weird looking, but at the same time, many different tribes/clans with special abilities like that exist. I mean Kurapika's eyes can turn red so this isn't even that weird.

*Ugh* "W- What is happening?" Asks the little girl confused by the goings around us. 

"You fell down when the teacher told us to follow her. So I carried you here to the meeting place and woke you up." I explain to her.

I see that Azule is not that concentrated on us, but she just says. "You have twenty minutes to rest, after that we will begin the grueling training."

We all nod at that. When the girl gets up, I get close to her and whisper. "Be careful next time, if I wasn't there you would have gotten expelled."

I am obviously not 100% sure this would have happened, after all, Azula said nothing of such sort. But she doesn't need to know that. 

The girl bows her head in gratitude. "Thanks for saving me. My name is Karla."

I nod in understanding. "Oh, that's a cute name, my name is Sub."

She blushes a little when I call her name cute. But I just brush it off. "Anyway, you should rest a little and let the poison wear off. Don't move too much or it might help spread it." 

She nods at this, still embarrassed. Damn, manipulating children is really easy. 

….

Twenty minutes later and here comes Azula again, she is wearing smart pants and a white shirt. She looks at us and instructs. "Well, the first thing an assassin needs to learn is to walk silently. When you are at such a level that you can do it instinctively without the need to concentrate, then you have passed this part of the training. You have three months to learn this. If you can't we will directly jump to learning the next technique, we don't have time to baby you up, there are hundreds of other students that have to learn."

We all nod, we are all in a line with me in the middle with Karla and the red haired kid to my sides. By the way the red haired kid's name is Ogre. Damn… talk about a sh*tty naming sense, feel sorry for the kid. But the name strangely suits him, and he seems to be a generally simple minded kid. 

But anyway, I see that Azula then looks at each of us in the eyes and then starts walking towards us, at first I don't notice anything strange until I don't hear any noise coming from her walking. "The key here is to keep your center of balance low, and walk by using your toes and ball of your foot first. Then creep along placing your feet lightly on the surface paying close attention to how you're shifting your weight."

We all nod and immediately start trying to larn it. Well we all have minor successes really. After all, neither of us really needed to use this technique before now. And I am currently wearing shoes which make a lot if noise while I walk. I am given shoes by the organization and most likely they planned this in order to make us learn to walk quietly on loud shoes and after that wearing something like sneakers wiuld make the technique way easier to use.

…..

-Azula POV-

I fold my arms and look at the kids all of them disappointing. I thought that the one who showed the most talent would be a good student to train, but it seems like he is too attacked to people and has a general tendancy to help people. Also the kid is talented and way above his peers but he will most likely die as soon as he leaves the compound due to recklessness.

The other one is the red hair fatso, he is already nine years old and I can see that he is having difficulty mastering this technique. When he becomes ten he will be put into an assassination mission and die.

Then there is the little girl with the creepy eyes, she is definitely gonna die. She is a weakling who only passed due to luck. 

….

Two days later… and here I am again. Teaching these soon to be dead kids. I am currently reading a book, when I hear something strange. The number of the feet hitting the ground has lessened. I immediately give a side glance towards the kids and see… the talented kid with the messt dark hair that is a little too long and looks like seaweed. He is just walking around quietly, he even starts jumping and he still makes no noise…

Damn… he really is talented. I have never seen someone his age learn the Silet Step Technique so fast. He then catches my gaze and smiles at me, that is when I also notice something strange about him. For a six year old, he really has such sharp and confident eyes.

….

One week has passed since the day that he learned the technique and… he is running around, jumping and handstands all silently. Talk about a monstrous talent, it really puts the others to shame. His fellow students can't even walk silently anymore.

I see that he comes towards me and with a smile on his face he asks me. "Techer, can you teach me something new now."

This brat…

….

-Sub (MC) POV-

Welp I already learned this technique by now, while the two others only trained here for a couple of hours. I trained everywhere, even in my room. It isn't a mtter of talent, its just the difference of work put in training… 

I see that Azule smiles at me. "Sure brat, how about learning joint dislocation with me."

.....

AUTHOR NOTE:

What defines this MC isn't his talent but the pure enjoyment and hard work he puts into something that he likes. He wants to see how far he can go and his adult mind can keep him concentrated and not wander off like a kid's when he trains.😁👍

Alzula looks like this. On discord I will have this on gallery.
