Chapter 15

Frank and Butler Wang were both taken aback by Ivory's reaction to Clyde's abilities. They had not expected her reverence for Clyde to be so strong, and her description of his power left them both shocked.

After dismissing Ivory, Frank couldn't contain his delight and let out a loud laugh. "Ha ha! As expected, my son does not disappoint me!" he exclaimed.

Butler Wang couldn't help but smile at Frank's joy, as he could see how happy the master was about Clyde's capabilities. The fact that Clyde was able to handle himself in the dungeon, without needing his assistance, had put Frank's worries about his son's abilities to rest.

At the training grounds, Clyde began his lesson with Adam on the proper use of the hunting knife. Adam was a strict but patient teacher, carefully guiding Clyde through the basic techniques of using a knife for combat. He showed Clyde how to make quick, precise stabs, how to target vulnerable points in an opponent's anatomy, and how to use the knife in different combat scenarios.

Throughout the lesson, Adam shared his knowledge about anatomy and how to best use the knife to exploit these weaknesses. He was passionate about teaching and it showed in the intensity of his instruction.

Clyde, in turn, was a quick learner, picking up on the techniques and theories that Adam was teaching him. Under Adam's guidance, the two of them trained and practiced for hours in Adam's room, honing Clyde's skills and improving his overall proficiency with the knife.

The training sessions with Adam proved to be grueling, but also incredibly rewarding for Clyde, who was determined to become skilled in the use of this weapon. With Adam's guidance and encouragement.

After several hours of training with the knife, Adam took the time to guide Clyde through a series of physical exercises designed to improve his stamina, strength, and reaction speed. According to Adam, this type of training not only enhances these attributes but also helps to gradually improve other aspects of Clyde's overall performance.

In this world, physical training is a common practice among warriors, as it helps improve their attributes, especially mages who are on the weaker side of physical attributes. Which is why they are particular about strengthening their attributes by training the body.

However, improving attributes through physical training is a slow process compared to leveling up. Hence, the most effective way to improve attributes is through a combination of leveling up and physical training.

Adam had a specific goal in mind for Clyde's training. He wanted to enhance Clyde's reaction speed, as he noticed that Clyde was easily getting hit in battle.

This was crucial as having a quick reaction speed would not only help Clyde effectively use his mana shield, but also allow him to easily counterattack his opponents. Adam knew that this was a fundamental aspect of Clyde's training and was determined to help him improve in this area.

"Let's take a break, young master," Adam said, calling out to Clyde, who was still pushing himself to the limit with weightlifting exercises in the corner. Exhausted, Clyde stopped his training and panting heavily. Sweat dripped down his body as he sat there, catching his breath next to Adam.

"Young Master, you have worked hard," Adam said, recognizing the effort Clyde had put into their training. "But it is time to take a break. After you catch your breath, we will work on improving your reaction speed with the help of the Golem." Clyde was taken aback by Adam's intensity, but he knew that the training was necessary if he wanted to improve. Despite his exhaustion, he was determined to continue and grow stronger. "Alright," Clyde replied with determination.

After a period of time, Clyde had fully recovered and now stood in the center of the ring facing the Golem. Adam reminded him, "Young master, keep in mind that you are only allowed to dodge and cannot attack."

Clyde, demonstrating his understanding, readied himself as Adam shouted, "Start!" The Golem immediately charged toward Clyde. In response, Clyde activated all of his amplification skills, which increased his attributes. The Golem was incredibly fast, with an agility level equivalent to that of a level 10 warrior.

As the Golem reached Clyde, it threw a solid punch toward his face. Quick on his feet, Clyde dodged to the left. However, the Golem was well-prepared and quickly followed up with a high kick aimed at Clyde. In order to protect himself, Clyde covered his head with his arm and successfully blocked the kick, although the impact caused him to stagger a few steps. Despite this, Clyde remained standing.

Unfazed, the Golem continued its relentless attack. However, Clyde, now recovered from the initial strike, was able to effortlessly dodge the Golem's subsequent moves and created a distance.

Adam observed the ongoing battle, noticing that Clyde had improved slightly since his battle with him. He understood that Clyde could easily counter-attack if he wanted to, but that was not the point of the training.

In the ring, the Golem continued its relentless barrage of attacks on Clyde, who dodged and blocked many of the strikes but was occasionally hit, causing him to lose balance and suffer bruises all over his body.

Despite the physical toll, Clyde never gave up and fought until his mana was completely depleted. Adam admired Clyde's determination and grit, knowing that this kind of perseverance and endurance was what would make him a great warrior one day.

Clyde lay motionless on the ground as the Golem finally ceased its attack. Exhausted and unable to move, Clyde was in dire need of rest. Approaching Clyde, Adam said, "Great work, young master." He then handed Clyde a recovery potion and helped him to his feet, carrying him to a nearby sofa where he could sit comfortably.

Clyde, still catching his breath, expressed his gratitude to Adam, "Thanks, Instructor Adam, for your guidance today."

Adam, with a warm smile on his face, replied, "It's no problem, young master. It's my duty to serve you." His words reflected his deep commitment to his role as Clyde's trainer.

Clyde took a well-deserved rest as he sat on the sofa, with Adam sitting beside him. "Young master, your performance was quite impressive today. I think it's time for you to rest and continue your training tomorrow," Adam advised. It was already late, and Clyde was clearly in need of a break.

"All right," Clyde responded, acknowledging the advice. After a few moments, Adam made his excuses and stood up, citing some responsibilities he had to attend to in the training ground. Despite this, he made sure that Clyde was comfortable and had everything he needed before he left, leaving Clyde to rest.
