"You are saying that he was using some unfamiliar breathing method and sword arts." Rhea said.
"Yes. It was above anything I have felt till now. Even the sword arts were refined and versatile. And it wasn't just one or two but atleast five to six different styles." Sonya said.
"It seems your brother came across a chance of a lifetime which resulted in his sudden growth. I guess we need to have a talk with him to understand where he got them and verify if the source of those things is legitimate and safe. It is for his future safety." Rhea said.
"And you wouldn't try to seize it from him." Sonya said. " We are not children anymore mother. So stop acting as if you really care about us that much. Even I am not able to digest your actions."
Her face was disgusted by the her mom's reaction, which made Rhea stop at the moment. Sonya didn't speak any further and walked away.
"She will understand the reason in the future." Rhea said to herself. She was hell bent on achieving her goals and she could go to any extent to achieve it.

Ragnar reached academy right on time for the class. He had already been promoted to he Beta class and when he reached there, he was greeted by surprised expression and prying eyes. Everyone knew about his performance since he was the guy who managed to score the highest mark in mana sensitivity ever. While some people were conflicted in their opinion on why he was allowed to enter the beta class, other were more sure about it.
Ragnar had a reputation for being the useless guy in the academy, but a single test managed to catapult him directly into he beta class. This was too much for some people to handle. It was given that some decided.tonbe vocal about it.
By being vocal what I mean to say is that they cursed and tried to provoke him.
"Looks like the academy's decision making authority has gone nuts, allowing almost anybody to join in the class. Make me remeber what was the last time someone managed to rise so easily to the beta class." The students sitting immediately started to laugh when they heard this.
Ragnar on the other hand showed zero reaction. He was too busy trying to work out a schedule for himself. He needed to increase strength fast and for that to happen, he needed resources. He needed more Qi Stones and Potions to rapidly recover his energy and proceed with excavation.
If he has somehow managed to improve his Bloodline quality, his body would have been able to keep up with the damage incurred during the excavation process. Hence, he decided to go home and research the shit out of ways through which he would be able to purify his bloodline to the next level. He was sure to come with a solution ones he gets his mind into it.
"Are you not able to hear me your moron?" A voice sounded near to Ragnar. He seemed to have ignored the source for a long time, making them irritated about the situation.
"What is it?" Ragnar asked.
"You are in my seat." The boy said. Everyone else was watching the scene with expectations of getting entertained.
"Fuck off." Ragnar was in no mood to play balls with this guy. He simply chose to ignore and continue his line of thought. Just at this moment, the boy shot at him from behind and flicked his head with a slap. Ragnar was too deep in thought to have reacted to it properly. When the hit landed, his head wa forced forward and almost bashed into the table.
Everyone laughed and so did the guy behind, but no one looked at Ragnar's expression for the moment. He rose from his seat and turned around. The boy was taller than him and sort of looked down on him. Everyone was expecting a one sided confrontation where Ragnar would be thrashed.
Tot heir surprise though, Ragnar simply punched the guy in the gut, which force him to bend forward. He then grabbed his head by the ear and began to hi it into the nearby table.
When I say began to hit it against the table, he was doing it again and again. As expected, due to the thrashing, cuts began to appear and blood stated to flow out, but he didn't stop. The guy lost two of his teeth, but Raganr was going even harder on him. The final thrash broke his jaw along with the table. Ragnar grabbed his shirt and tore it apart, using the torn piece to clean his hands.
In front of the shocked eyes of everyone's he just walked out of class. He had lost interest inthe clas altogether. He went to the gym to resume his physical training before his session with Sally.
...
The teacher alloted to the class walked in to a crowd surrounding the injured guy. He rushed in to help him while screaming.
"How did this happen?" He screamed.
"Ragnar Avalon. Rein just wanted to have a talk with him and this was what he did in response to his attempt." Another boy spoke.
The teacher looked at the blooded face and rushed him into the infirmary. He knew that the situation wasn't as simple as the boy was stating to be. But interrogation can be held later. He was required to get immediate medical attention for this guy.
"How did he maage to insure Rein so badly. Is he truly a guy who was just promoted to beta class." The teacher was surprised to experience Ragnar's strength. Another thing that worried him was the situation itself.
Rein wasn't like Ralph or Pierce Moore. His family background was substantial and this matter wasn't going to end here. He had to report to the principal immediately.
....
"You are quite early today." Sally said.
"No reason for you to worry. Let us concentrate on the training itself. Did you think about our session yesterday and managed to inculcate some of the pointers inot your sword art?" Ragnar asked.
"I did. My speed did increase and so did my ability to switch between moves. I feel like they connect much mor easily now. But I need more time to perfect it."
"It is good enough if you have realized the effect. Let us begin the spar. I will not be holding back from now and so will you. Go all out and start integrating all your strength into the attacks."
"But." Sally wanted to say something.
"No buts and ifs. Just do as I say." Ragnar had a different plan in mind. Since he required an intensive physical training and wanted to start gaining battle experience he was going to use Sally as the decoy to get it.
