Combat Training
Theo smiled as he saw Zeros face reacting to the building. " What's wrong are the conditions not to your liking?" Theo laughed as he continued to walk towards the building. Zero just shook his head and thought ' I mean it could be a desert area so it's not so bad' and continued walking behind Theo. They approached the doors which were faded which some chips around the edges. Theo reached to open the door when they heard a hearty laugh. " welcome, welcome good customers." they heard large steps coming from inside as the owner of the voice walked over to open the door.
When the door opened Zero had to look up. In front of Zero stood a large bulky man in front of him with light tan skin, he had no hair and tattoos covering his arms. The man smiled and looked at them both " Hey Theo welcome back and I see you've brought a friend please come in, come in." the man said as he waved them inside. They all walked over to a couple of chairs around a single table in the corner of the room. " So I can I help you today?" the man turned to Zero as they sat down. "ummm.." zero didnt know what exactly to say in the moment. " Well my companion here is looking for some instructors because he wants to become strong." theo said with a giant smirk on his face.
All of a sudden the man leapt up from his seat and yelled " aha, finally a new apprentice to teach! ahhhhh. It has been a while since I've last trained someone. hahaha." The man was laughing and looked at Zero " Oh right forgive me for not introducing myself my name is Louis ( Lo-Wee-S) " Louis said as he extended a hand out to shake Zeros. Zero smiled because this man was a little odd but he seemed genuine and genuine people are your friends for a lifetime. They both shook hands, sat down, and continued talking. " So you want me to train you but do you know the details?" Louis spoke towards Zero. Zero gave him a slightly confused look. and asked " What details? I haven't been told anything." Louis looked at Theo and gave him. a stern look. " Well I dont want to force you into training so I'll give you all the details. First the pricing of our training is a little expensive but it comes with the best training you'll recieve anywhere around here. Second once we recieve payment no refunds even if you cant complete the training for any reason. Third you will have to stay here for 3 months straight."
"What the hell three months?" Zero exclaimed outloud. Zero didnt want to be away from his family that long he just got them back. Also the money may be an issue since he just. bought a lot of stuff and gave some to his sister. 'Oh wait I should ask Zofia if I completed any quest with learning so much magic' "Host has completed multiple side quest during your trip with learning multiple types of magic. Also Host has completed find combat instructor quest. Host current exp is at 24500." Zofia said. 'Woah that should be more than enough. That's taken care of but I still dont know if I can be away from Ela that long..' Zero thought to himself.
" Well the first two conditions arent much of a problem but the last one is a bit harsh. You see I have a beautiful daughter that I want to see as much as I can so.." Zero said. " Hmmm that is an issue. It's just it's very important to finish it in three months straight not to disrupt or hinder your training we do it in a special place a few days from here so it'll be a Condition that cant be changed." Louis replied with slight frown as his hand was rubbing his chin. " Well let me talk with my family and I'll decide then" zero said. Louis just nodded. Zero stood up and was preparing to leave when Louis said " wait you haven't had a chance to meet our second instructor." Zero stopped to turn around and follow Louis. Louis walked Zero and Theo out to the back of the building.
As the were approaching outside Zero could hear a thumping. Louis opened the door and Zero saw an arrow whiz past in front of them and thump again onto a target. Zero looked over to see a target 200 meters away from where he was standing. He looked back to see who was shooting the arrows. Zero was shocked to see a pair of green eyes staring at them. Blond hair blowing in the wind her beautiful slim figure almost matching her bows curves. " I'd like you to meet your archery instructor Bell" Louis introduced her smiling. Bell looked at Zero and Zero looked at Bell. " Hi, nice to meet you again" Zero said. Bell stared at them and nodded her head and acknowledged them before turning to walk away..
