chapter 4

The fuck? Whose kid is playing at such a dangerous place?

"Ayo! Wait! I'm coming, don't die yet!" Seriously? Who is this idiot to drown at such a low scale of water?

I pulled him up, grabbing his black collar.

Hush! He's still alive.

"Hey! Wake up!" He ain't responding, I might as well let him die here if he doesn't reply.

Cough! Cough!

Guess I won't be leaving him.

"Alex, you came back, where is Master?" Alex came back with his drenched apparel, No wonder, Master has gone hard on him.

"Mari, Who's that?" Did he ignore my question? What a brave man.

I glanced at the black shirt man who I was carrying like a drag. I am so shameless!

"Oh, he? A man who was drowning pitifully in the river, so I picked him and... 'That's why u asked where is Master,'" I highlighted.

You haven't answered 'where Master is' yet, boy.

"Haha... He took Lucifer with him and gone for another hunt," He turned pale at my words.

"By the way, you treat this boy, Imma go and train, here take him," I bounced off the man to Alex.

"Hey! He is a human, he's not a monster like you!" Brave enough to complain, huh?

"You wanna come with me for training?" He shut his mouth.

I tossed off my sword to him, and said, "Take care of my sword and also treat that dead man, he ain't responding, you know?"

...

$hit! That's why I hate training in the water. What the fuck is it even going to help when I fight in those cages?

Burble! Gasp.

"I thought I was gonna die if I kept doing this,"

I should do exercise now, this ain't helping me.

One, two, three...

***

Exercise is over, now it's time for magic. Huhu!

I imagined a fireball, yeah, keep concentrating at the centre and Haa!

Nothing right?

Fantasy books said that imagining can help but it's not worth it. Magic adjusts the body to its physical strength.

I never told the master that I was going to do some combat training, only Hwa Na knows it, she keeps it in her stomach.

I filled my body with more magic as I started my combat training, I trained every day and had more magic than Master, but still... "I couldn't defeat him without my magic, Shame on me!"

"Mari! He had woken up!"

"So what?"

"It's urgent!"

***

"Ayo! What the fuck happened?"

"I don't know,"

"What 'I don't know?' Give my sword here!"

I was glaring at the man growling in front of me.

Who is this crazy bastard?

And why the heck is he growling?

***

"Thank God! He went back to sleep, Phew!"

"And what the hell happened here?"

Creak!

"Master!"
