Training

Xander thought that by having the physique of a grand master he would be exempted from training his body and moving strait to technique

He was wrong

The first week was purely physical exercises. It would start right after school and continue till late at night. Needless to say, even with his high body stat, Akisame-sensei still found a way to exhaust him. On the plus side, his body stat was increasing naturally, which is nice.

In addition, he received a new title [Ryozanpaku Disciple] which granted him 30% on all gains when studying under one of the Ryozanpaku masters. Add that to all the bonuses he already has and he is learning everything at 3 to 5 times faster than the base speed, depending on what it is he is learning.

The second week was when Xander actually started learning techniques. It was also the week he moved into Ryozanpaku. With this, his physical training was moved to before school, at dawn and technique training in the afternoon when he returned.

His father and sister did throw a fit at first, but was quickly shut down by his mother. Xander didn't exactly know what she did, and truth be told, his instincts told him he didn't really want to know. Xander made the right choice of listening to them.

And so, Xander's training began. The first to teach Xander was Akisame. He taught Xander the standard shoulder throw and had him practice it on statues of Buddha or something.

It wasn't particularly difficult to perform the throw, but the difficulty came in keeping the statues completely intact. It took Xander the entire evening and several statues to be able to do it.

The odd thing was that Xander didn't get a skill for it till he did it correctly and it was a special skill [Shoulder Throw]. Xander decided to ignore it for now; he had other things to think about.

The next day he was with Sakaki. The man complained about having a disciple and what not, but one can see he is actually happy to have a deciple. He is basically a tsundere.

To keep himself from getting his ass kicked, Xander opted not to voice his thoughts and opted to get the actual knowledge.

The technique he 'graced' Kenichi with was the double punch thing, something about the human instinct forcing people to protect the face, which exposes the body.

Again it took Xander the whole evening to gain the skill, and again it was a special category.

When Xander asked scarlet about it her reply was [according to the system, it is an incomplete skill]

Xander decided to let it go for the time being, as he simply didn't have enough to deduce what is going on.

The next day, Xander trained with the pervert-sensei. Much to Kensei's dismay, Xander refused to change the nickname unless he stops his perverseness for a whole week. Hearing the condition, Kensei gave up immediately and began training Xander for how to punch correctly.

If the punches Sakaki taught were rigid and forceful, then the punches Kensei taught were smooth and flexible, almost whip like.

A repeat of the previous day occurred and so, Xander gave up on figuring it out for now.

The next day it was Shigure's. Her training was standard; concerning how to perform a downward slash with the very real and very sharp sword she gave Xander for practice… absolutely and completely standard.

Xander thanked the lord (Xander Rex) for [Gamer Mind], otherwise, the mere sight of Shigure's kimono hitching up when she raises her sword, would be too much for Xander to concentrate.

But the training went well and yet again, an incomplete skill was gained.

The following day was a Friday; it was when Xander was heading home with Miu that he heard the sound of a scuffle. Checking on what is going on, Xander saw a student beating on another, screaming something about judo or something.

Xander didn't care about two students fighting, what he did care about, was bullying. As someone who was bullied since young, he developed a really low tolerance towards it, and the bullies.

"I think that's enough, don't you?" Xander called out

"Huh?" the student turned slowly towards Xander

'Why does every tough guy wanna be start with that? Is there a handbook, or online courses or something?' Xander thought to himself

"Who the fuck are you?" the bully asked

"Just a passer-by" Xander replied as he moved towards the downed student "I'm gonna take him to the infirmary now, you wouldn't mind, would you?" Xander asked with a smile that was not a smile

The bully felt a shiver go through his bones as if telling him he's downright fucked. Being the prideful idiot that he is, he decided he didn't want to feel afraid of a no name

"Do you know who you're messing with?" he started "I'm part of…" whatever he wanted to say was interrupted when Xander back hand bitch slapped the living shit out of him, Immediately dropping him to the floor

As the student regained his senses of which direction is up and which is down, he looked up at Xander to see eyes cold enough to freeze hell looking back at him

"I hate bullying the weak" Xander said with an even tone "but I don't mind bullying the bully, now get out of my sight or I take your knee" Xander didn't blink once during his little threat, adding much to the intimidation factor, causing the poor student to scurry away while whimpering

While Xander is a 'violent when necessary' type of person, Feral Xander is 'violent when possible' type of beast. After merging his 'normal', Feral and soldier sides sometime after the destruction of Sunnydale, Xander became 'violence against violence' kind of guy.

"To protect the pack" as feral put it

Xander didn't think much about the repercussions of what he did and simply decided to move on with his training.

Arriving at Ryozanpaku, Xander saw Apachai sitting at the entrance stairs wearing training mits and waiting for him.

"KENICHI YOU'RE BACK!" the gentle? Giant shouted excitedly "LET'S TRAIN!"

Xander could only fondly laugh. He liked his new masters

They were fun

A shorter chap for the start of the story

Xander/Kenichi is going to cleave through Ragnarok like a red hot knife through warm butter. ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ

I want him to fight Yami/Yomi, not their deciples.

Peace
