Chapter 29 - Spartan Training 2_3

Vier was cruel and has no mercy. Using the word exercises as a reason, he beat me up to the dust.

Okay, Vier was not evil. It's just that he is excessive!

The exercise he gave me was really outside the boundary! He kept forcing me to keep moving even though I am at my limit.

Now, as usual, I can't move at all after a duel against Vier. Out of energy, I lay on the floor of the training room.

"I... will die..." I complained

"Big sis will die!" Kimi shouted.

The little girl ignored her practice and trotted to approach me. Blue, coloring her face, and tears formed at the corner of her eyes.

"No Kimi, it's just a figure of speech. I won't die. So don't cry okay?"

"Really?" she asked, doubting my words.

"I will be fine, is that right, Vier?" I asked Vier. At the same time, I also asked for help to ease Kimi's worries.

"Of course, your sister will be healthy after I heal her. Don't worry Kimi." He smiled at Kimi and then squatted beside me.

"Okay," answer my little sister reluctantly.

"Now," said Vier who put his hand on a tear wound on my right arm. "[Heal]"

The bright green dim light appeared from Vier's palm. The light then enveloped my wound. Then I feel itchy and ticklish when my wound healed so quickly because of the effect of fast cell regeneration.

Within a few seconds, the wound disappeared as if it had never been before.

"It's very relieving," I said.

"Now, let's continue training today!"

"You must be joking! I can't move any more!"

"Of course you can. You speak, that means you can still move. Lift your weapon or I will do it for you."

"Arrgghh! OK!"

And I stood up, drawing my wooden spear to fight or maybe to duel Vier. I'm a little annoyed with this method of training. But, after I remember what happened to me in the past and remembering how weak I was, my determination was burning.

I have to go through all this to be stronger.

Spartan training for today just started!

Tack! Tack! Thwack! Tack! Tack! Thwack!

We exchange attacks. I tried to take down Vier with all the abilities that I had. While for Vier, I suspect, he just plays around with me.

Given the level he has, it's cannot be helped anymore.

I can see him never serious. And what he did right now is like an adult man pretending to fight to entertain a child.

And all that is not a problem for me.

I keep dancing with a vier for a while. And when the dance is over, I feel I'm like a corpse. I can't move my body at all. The wounds I got, gave rise to extraordinary pain as if they chopped my body.

"Aaa ..." I mimic a zombie that groaned when Vier healed my wound using Healing Spell.

"All good. Take a rest, I'll be right back." Without waiting for a reply, Vier get out of the training room. And in exchange, Kimi and Cabal approached me.

"There is one thing I want to talk about with you," said Cabal for a moment he arrived beside me.

"All my ears, Cabal."

"To be honest, I was wondering, do you agree that Kimi went to Adventurer's School?" Cabal asked. "She has a knack for using swords. And if Kimi has an affinity for using magic, Adventurer's School can help her. For all these reasons, it would be a pity if Kimi did not attend Adventurer's School."

Cabal gave us an explanation. Thanks to him, I came to understand that Kimi has a knack for using swords. but...

"What is Adventurer's School?" Kimi and I asked at the same time. It made us stare at each other before making a giggle.

It's pretty funny when we say the same question at the same time.

Cabal made a warm smile, then. "Adventurer's School is a place dedicated to teaching children, the knowledge to become an Adventurer from the elementary level to the advanced level. I'm sure, it's a great place for Kimi to grow."

"... how about the cost?"

"You don't have to worry about it. Children under the age of fifteen will not be charged when applying to Adventurer's School. Kimi happened to be about thirteen years old, right?"

"Yes, I'm thirteen years old," Kimi replied with a strong nod.

"So. What do you think, Eclaite?"

"... I will give you an answer after knowing this Adventurer's School more."

"Why can't big sis answer now?"

"My cute little sister, I'm too tired. I can't accompany you to see Adventurer's School. So, I hope you'll be patient for a day or two."

"All right."

"Good."

"This is a document relating to Adventurer's School. You can read it and I'm expecting a positive answer."

"Thank you, Cabal."

"No problem."

After that, we had a little chat to wait for the missing Vier to come back.

Then, in the blink of an eye, half an hour passed. My body was able to move again and Vier finally showed his face. He came back with a few pairs of clothes.

"This is for you, Miss Eclaite," Vier said as he handed me the pile of clothes.

"For me? Why?" I asked, spontaneously accepting the clothes.

"Isn't that obvious? I ripped off the clothes that you wore. I'm also sure that you don't want to walk in public when wearing clothes like that."

Vier's words made me see the clothes I was wearing right now. And true to his words, this outfit looks inappropriate and dirty because of the blood.

And seeing the many tears in this outfit, I whispered. "I can't come out with a look like this, can I?"

"That's right," replied Vier. The young man seems to have heard what I'm saying.

I saw the young man. "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Then we parted.

Today's training is so tiring. Therefore, I canceled my plan to work on a quest. I decided to do culinary tours with Kimi to increase my Basic Statistics.

When we traced Rishtonbell, we visited dozens of food carts and bought many snacks. For a few hours, Kimi's eyes rarely stopped to see me who chow down dozens of portions of snack.

"I can imagine, the beautiful big sis turns into a fat big sis!"

What an impolite little girl! I will not be fat because the Heart of Monsters absorbs all these snacks to increase my Basic Statistics.

I won't be fat! Maybe...

Anyway! Thanks to all the snacks, today I get...

<health up! HP + 2>

<Strength Up! Str + 1>

<endurance up! End + 1>

<dexterity up! DEX + 1>

This Basic Statistics increase is really low and I want more! Unfortunately, my stomach has reached its limit.

I have to eat seven or eight portions of snacks to get an increase for my Basic Statistics. Eight portions of snacks are more or less equal to one and a half kilogram of monsters meat.

Today I get four increases in Basic Statistics. That means I eat six kilograms of monsters meat.

I've been full and I don't want to force myself to eat snacks again. I thought of buying Magic Stones to get the skill, but I discouraged that intention.

Honestly, I don't have money.

The money left by the jerk is not much. I have to use it wisely. If I just waste the money, I won't be able to buy weapons and armor.

Whereas to get skills from NPC or people who have the title of Skill Master... I also have to pay a fee. They no longer give a Quest.

And sometimes, if I want to study the skills they have, I am required to join their suspicious group or cult.

Because of that, I can't increase my strength by eating Magic Stones or studying skills from Skills Master.

Of course, I didn't give up. I'm looking for another alternative to grow strong.

And that alternative is to training. That's right, training.

Weight lifting, push up, sit up, squad, and so on. All of that training methods can increase my basic statistics. And after practicing for three hours in the backyard of the house, I get ...

<Strength up! Str + 1>

<stamina up! SP + 2>

<Strength Up! Str + 1>

Yup! I get stronger. But .... for some reason, I feel I forget something important.
