"Master, today's the day I will finally overcome the challenge that you have given me," Derek declared with a smug smile on his face.
"You seem awfully confident today, Disciple." Thirteen eyed the Swordsman with genuine curiosity.
"Indeed, I am very confident today because I brought a secret weapon with me," Derek chuckled. "Master, you did me dirty by letting me fight that Rank 4 Chad Skunk. But, I have learned from my losses. So today, I will make you see the fruit of my training."
Roland and Joshua, who paused their training just to see their daily dose of entertainment from Derek, looked at their comrade with a smile.
They were naturally familiar with Derek's personality, and they knew that the swordsman was secretly enjoying their hardship and misfortune.
Because of this, they decided to watch Derek's battles as a payback and a form of stress relief from their own training.
